The old man said, "Don't underestimate this puppeteer. Once he makes a move, he won't give you any room to maneuver."
Qing Chen suddenly brought the topic back: "The containment condition of the Heaven and Earth Chessboard is 3,610 lives. Are there any other costs involved in its use?"
"Yes," the old man nodded.
"What price?"
"I can't say."
Qing Chen asked again, "Old Shen was a Shadow of a certain generation, right? Qing Zhun, Qing Shen, and Qing Tong were the three Shadows after you became the head of the family. I am very curious about where Qing Tong went, and where your former Shadow troops went."
"Why are you suddenly asking this?" the old man asked, somewhat surprised.
Qing Chen said, "I've possessed so many people, I'm bound to find some strange clues. Everyone says Qing Tong went on a journey, I'm curious where he went to disappear completely? Did your Shadow Army, when you were the Shadow, also go into seclusion in the mountains? But the supply department always has a secret fixed expenditure, which must be for this Shadow Army, right?"
The old man chuckled: "You're almost uncovering my secrets."
"Judging from those people's memories, your shadow force is becoming increasingly active. What are they doing?"
"I can't tell you now, but you'll find out someday."
"Alright, I'm off," Qingchen said goodbye to the old man and headed down the mountain.
Shen Dai Yunluo and Yunxiu were waiting at the foot of the mountain. When they saw him come down, they exclaimed, "I never expected that your mistress could cause such a commotion. You've really taken care of City 20. Thinking that it's my hometown, I still feel a little reluctant to leave."
Li Kerou, who was standing quietly waiting to the side, was stunned for a moment.
Mistress? What mistress?
At this moment, Qing Chen said, "This time, it can be considered revenge for Xiao Liu. I will not stop until I have crushed those garrison soldiers."
Li Kerou was stunned. There was even a sixth child. How could she have so many future colleagues?
Qing Chen glanced at her and instantly understood. He explained in an annoyed tone, "The most capable people in the Parents' Association are Luo Wanya, who is the eldest and ranks all the way down to Xiao Qi. Don't overthink it, I'm not that kind of person."
Li Kerou quickly nodded: "I understand, we're all colleagues."
Qing Chen: "..."
What do you know?!
Kamishiro Unra asked with a smile, "Are you leaving?"
“Hmm,” Qingchen nodded, “Once I’m familiar with the situation over there, I’ll call you to join me. There are eyes everywhere on the other side of the Forbidden Sea; I’m sure you’ll find it very interesting.”
Having gone through numerous battles, Qing Chen has chosen to trust Shen Dai Yunluo. If the other party wanted to betray him, he would probably have died more than ten times over.
Qing Chen asked, "What are your plans next?"
Shindai Yunluo said, "Next, I will travel with Yunxiu and the others to visit famous mountains and rivers and explore forbidden places. I heard that the girls in Xiuzhuzhou are particularly good, and there are many secrets in Forbidden Place No. 001. I was obsessed before and never saw the styles of different places. Now is the time. I will be waiting for you in City No. 10 two months later."
“It’s a deal,” Qingchen nodded.
As he spoke, Qing Ji opened a shadow gate for him: "Behind the gate is the vicinity of the aerial fortress."
Qing Chen walked in without looking back.
Since we can't steal the memories of white people, we'll have to infiltrate them by force.
...
...
City No. 20.
The young man, wearing a baseball cap and walking down the street with his head down, was accompanied by a golden cockroach king, which was as obedient as a dog.
Tonight, all members of the Shindai are devastated.
The cockroach swarm of Xiao San had not been breeding for long enough to cover the entire city. He used a fan-shaped motion to drive the cockroaches away, completing a carpet search of the entire City 20, and finally driving all the members of the God Generation towards the direction of the King's Landing Sky Fortress.
Many members of the Shindai also realized that this cockroach swarm was a targeted attack plan, aimed only at killing high-ranking officials and dignitaries.
Therefore, many members of the Shindai changed into simple clothes and tried to hide in civilian houses.
However, they underestimated the strong public support the parents' association had in City 20.
The video of Xiao Liu being dragged to his death on the long street quickly spread throughout the northern internet, and by the time Shen Dai cleaned up the video, it was too late.
The people were moved by the sacrifices and contributions made by the parents' association. Although they dared not speak out due to pressure, they understood in their hearts what kind of organization the parents' association was.
But tonight is different.
The appearance of the cockroach swarm initially brought great fear to the residents, but it was followed by a disgusting sense of security, and some people even actively fed the cockroach swarm.
Now, the members of the Shindai are trying to hide in residential buildings, but the residents who discover them are shouting from their windows: "Come quick! There are Shindai people in our building!"
Upon hearing the sound, the swarm of cockroaches immediately scurried inside, and some residents even guided them...
"Yes, that's the room over there. It's where an official keeps his mistress. He used to come here often. We just saw him go in! He's got a big belly and lots of fat!"
When the people's war began, the members of the God Generation were surrounded by enemies and had nowhere to hide.
In desperation, many people could only run desperately toward the air force base, hoping that the air fortress could help them take refuge and leave with them.
More and more people were fleeing, with members of the Shindai clan and white people mixed together, all running towards the air fortress.
The number of refugees was in the thousands, densely packed together.
An official wanted to run away with his mistress, an obscure celebrity, and a young heartthrob, but halfway there, the celebrities suddenly discovered... that cockroaches weren't attacking them, so why should they go along to their deaths?
So, as they ran, the celebrities stopped running and instead felt a sense of schadenfreude.
It was at this moment that Qing Chen changed into a white combat uniform, put on a wig, turned up his collar, and calmly hid in the shadows.
As the fleeing convoy passed by, Qingchen, looking flustered, mingled among them.
On the aerial fortress, Kingdom Organization soldiers had already established a containment zone outside the fortress, and even released 1,600 drones from the Hive, which hovered in the air humming, effectively sealing off the entire area.
The air fortress's anti-gravity system and power engines are all activated, maintaining a low-speed operating mode, and it can take off at any time.
Nikita looked at the fleeing crowd on the holographic sand table and said coldly, "Only let the white people in. Keep all the members of the God Era outside. Don't let them in."
A crew member turned to look at her: "Sir, the Kamishiro side sent a message earlier, hoping we can evacuate their staff..."
Nikita sneered, "A bunch of yellow-skinned monkeys think they can be under my protection? What use are they? Utterly useless. Calm them down first, don't let them disrupt our personnel's boarding. After guiding our combat personnel onto the plane, set sail immediately back to 'Storm City'."
"receive!"
As the fleeing crowd approached the aerial fortress, the kingdom's soldiers blocking the way fired warning shots into the air: "All our combat personnel have priority; the rest of you wait!"
Although the members of the Shindai were anxious, they dared not continue to crowd and could only let the foreigners go first.
However, after all the white people had passed through, the Kingdom's soldiers suddenly raised their guns and opened fire. They mercilessly mowed down a quarter of the members of the Shindai, causing the Shindai members to retreat and flee in terror.
Before entering the air fortress, all the white people underwent identity verification one by one on the jet bridge.
Just as it was about to be Qing Chen's turn, a dark cloud suddenly rose up behind them, and all the cockroaches flew up, like a huge net, and swarmed towards the Junlin!
Nikita roared from the command console: "Close the hatch immediately, activate all airtight systems, and take off!"
The hatch of the air fortress slammed shut with a loud bang. The soldiers at the door didn't bother to check identities anymore; they just rushed through and closed the door, which was the most important thing.
The gates slammed shut, and the multi-pulse engines beneath the fortress spewed flames, creating a massive heatwave that vaporized all the cockroaches on the ground.
The air fortress took off, and in the sky, a dense swarm of cockroaches slapped against the protective deck, making a crackling sound, as if it were raining.
Even the glass at the very front of the command room was covered with a dense layer of colorful insect corpse fluid.
The suicidal attack by the cockroach swarm stunned all the soldiers inside the air fortress. They watched in complete silence, and many were so disgusted that they vomited...
A foul stench suddenly filled the fortress...
Inside the chaotic ship's hold, Qing Chen walked in expressionlessly, heading straight for the bottom without stopping.
Chapter 788, Infiltration!
The King's Landing air fortress is still climbing.
Countless cockroaches relentlessly attacked, seemingly trying to bite open the protective deck with their mouthparts.
However, no matter how fierce the cockroach swarm was, they were still just flesh and blood. The interior of the entire aerial fortress had been sealed and pressurized, making it impossible for cockroaches to get in.
Even so, the Kingdom Organization members watching from inside the ship's hold still felt a sense of awe and trepidation.
The cockroach swarms are so fearless and relentless that even though everyone knows they're just throwing their lives away, it still makes your teeth ache.
From the command post, Nikita sneered, "Whoever is controlling these cockroaches, it's a pipe dream for them to think they can sink an air fortress with something like this. It's incredibly stupid."
Nikita continued, "Anti-gravity devices at full throttle, engines at full power, we'll climb to 12,000 meters in 12 minutes! Once we reach that altitude, they'll all naturally suffocate from lack of oxygen!"
The aerial fortress continued to ascend, while the officials of the Age of Gods who were locked outside on the ground were already being swallowed up by the swarm of cockroaches.
When the fortress reached an altitude of 12,000 meters, Nikita looked at the cockroaches covering the outside of the fortress, which, due to lack of oxygen, fell down like rain, and sneered: "Like an egg hitting a rock."
However, no one has yet realized that this swarm of cockroaches launched such a terrifying suicide attack simply to cover the entry of one person.
At this moment, on the streets of city number 20.
The mistress, wearing a baseball cap, looked up at the sky. Cockroaches, after dying high in the air, fell to the ground like raindrops.
He turned to look at the golden cockroach king beside him, which seemed somewhat sad.
In this battle, less than one in ten cockroaches survived.
The massive tail flames from the moment the aerial fortress ignited and took off killed a third of the race.
Xiao San comforted her, "Don't be sad, Xiao Jin. We're here for the parents' plan. They have more important things to do. Now that City 20 has been wiped out, we'll go to City 22. The parents have prepared a new plan for us to infiltrate there. They'll give you a chance to breed again then."
Xiao Jin rubbed against Xiao San's leg, indicating that she understood.
“Let’s go,” the mistress said with a smile, “we’re about to embark on a new journey.”
With that, Xiao Jin led the remaining swarm of cockroaches back into the sewer, while Xiao San lowered the brim of his hat and walked into the shadows.
To retire gracefully after achieving one's goals.
Residents can no longer see cockroaches and are slowly starting to walk on the streets.
Others drove frantically into the Upper Three Districts... Since almost all the people from the Kamishiro Group are dead, does that mean the entire Upper Three Districts are almost deserted?
The house is definitely not going to be stolen, but the problem is that those important people must have a lot of valuable things in their homes!
It was at this time that the Parents' Association issued a message on its official account "We Are a Loving Family" on various platforms: "The Parents' Association's operation to eliminate the cockroaches in City 20 has ended. All residents do not need to panic. The cockroaches will be completely removed within three days and will no longer affect everyone's lives."
