Chapter 1603: Chapter 859: The Prophecy of the Taboo

Return.

The cold, deep night at the Mount Everest Base Camp welcomed a group of well-trained mountaineers.

They silently passed through the tents, trying not to disturb anyone. Everyone wore masks and baseball caps, hiding their true faces.

These people didn’t seem like mountaineers; instead, they resembled a group of soldiers.

Unlike typical mountaineers, this team was exceptionally large. While others moved in groups of eight, they were in groups of hundreds.

Moreover, along with these mountaineers, there was a professional support team of over a hundred people, including more than twenty Sherpas.

Oddly enough, even with such a strong support team, these people did not slack off by ordering the support team around. Instead, they set up tents, communication centers, and cooked their own meals.

These people even went to the trouble of piling stones to form a wall around their camp and took turns standing watch while sleeping at night.

Their arrival inevitably alerted the other mountaineers in the camp.

Some observant people noticed that the professional support team accompanying this group was armed.

Moreover, some of the dark green boxes they carried, although sanded down to remove markings, were recognized by veterans as specially designed for RPG rockets…

With this kind of firepower configuration, an uninformed person might think some head of state was visiting Mount Everest.

Hu Xiaoniu stood in his own camp, listening to the bubbling sound from the small pot nearby. Chen Zhuoqu, with a calm expression, was breaking compressed biscuits into the pot.

“Any anomalies?” Hu Xiaoniu asked.

Chen Zhuoqu shook her head: “No anomalies in the camp. Master has paved this road well; he specifically went to Europe to hit the Kingdom and the Future Organization hard. The overseas forces are busy dealing with him and can’t bother us… but we still have to be careful.”

After the devil training, all the members of the Knight Reserves had lost some weight.

Boys and girls in their late teens, who used to have some baby fat, now had tanned faces with distinct cheekbones.

Chen Zhuoqu’s jawline looked like it was carved with a knife, making her overall aura appear sharper.

She looked at Hu Xiaoniu and said, “We need to adapt to the plateau climate quickly and start training.”

Hu Xiaoniu smiled and asked, “Is the King of Female Rolls feeling the pressure too?”

“Yes,” Chen Zhuoqu nodded. “The two senior brothers we met at the Fire Pit Snow Mountain were impressive.”

She was referring to Li Ke and Zhang Mengchan.

When the Knight Reserves arrived at the Fire Pit, Li Yunjing happened to bring these two to the Great Snow Mountain for a new life-and-death challenge.

It was then that Chen Zhuoqu saw the gentle and jade-like Li Ke and the sixth-sense awakened Zhang Mengchan.

These two senior brothers, protected by Li Yunjing, were practicing Reverse Breathing Technique at all times, bearing 380 pounds of sandbags on their legs and arms to offset the power from the Immortality fruit.

The sandbags were filled with heavy tungsten sand. The two senior brothers didn’t even remove them while sleeping.

Senior Brother Li Ke said, having the chance to consume the Immortality fruit is certainly a good thing, but when Master walked the path of the Knight, he didn’t have such help, nor did Knights of old have such conditions.

So, to feel the emotions and struggles of the predecessors, one has to offset the power of the Immortality fruit in order to temper one’s mind.

Chen Zhuoqu tried it, and as a result, suffered from altitude sickness the same day…

If it weren’t for the medical equipment on the floating airship provided by Qing’s Family, she might have been in serious trouble.

Senior Brother Li Ke comforted her, saying that this kind of training must be gradual and can’t be rushed.

But the slightly mischievous look in this senior brother’s eyes made it clear that Knights are indeed a tough bunch, except for Xiao Zhenji who is the last conscience of the Knights!

The King of Female Rolls couldn’t stand such grievances. As soon as she recovered, she began to maintain Reverse Breathing Technique and gradually added weight to herself.

Not only that, she custom-made weighted sandbags for everyone, making all Knight Reserves suffer terribly.

Of course, everyone knew it was for their own good, and Senior Brother Li Ke wasn’t wrong.

However, the biggest impact on Chen Zhuoqu wasn’t from Li Ke; it was from Zhang Mengchan…

When Chen Zhuoqu faced Zhang Mengchan, despite the white silk band covering her eyes, she felt that Zhang Mengchan could see her at all times.

Moreover, Zhang Mengchan could predict her actions.

When she wanted to pick up a kettle, the next moment, Zhang Mengchan had already handed it to her. When she dropped her chopsticks due to exhaustion from training, Zhang Mengchan preemptively reached out to catch them.

Although she could catch the falling chopsticks with incredible speed if they dropped, she understood that Zhang Mengchan wasn’t relying on speed but was able to… see the future.

To Chen Zhuoqu, it seemed like a superpower. While everyone is turning into Knights, she remained just a plain Knight with no extra skills!

And needing help with such things as handing over a kettle or picking up chopsticks, wasn’t this just an intentional way to pressure her?

Hence, Chen Zhuoqu started leading her peers to roll through the West Continent in the Superconductor World, intent on obtaining an Awakening slot and getting herself a new profession.

Roll!

Now, in the Knight Reserves, everyone is rolling every moment!
