Chapter 1644: Chapter 873: Twenty-Nine

"What are the Black Knights of Silver City plotting, where have they gone?" Marquis Bolton angrily pounded on the door of the room, but the door on this airship wasn’t something an ordinary person like him could break down.

His hands were bleeding, yet the door showed no signs of damage.

Lao Shiyi leaned against the doorway, holding a glass filled with ice cream in one hand and a small pure gold spoon in the other.

He said nonchalantly, "Bolton, this isn’t something you should be involved in. You’d better worry about your wife than your butler."

Bolton paused in his speech: "Why worry about my wife? She’s the Fifth Princess of the Royal Family, who would dare touch her?"

Lao Shiyi sneered, "You really are a fool, completely clueless about what’s going on. The Duke of Storm City is about to inherit the throne, and he will definitely eliminate all obstacles before his accession, among which the Second Prince and the Fifth Princess are his biggest competitors. You don’t understand the Drama Master, do you? They like to nip all dangers in the bud, so the Second Prince and the Fifth Princess are doomed."

"My wife is the King’s favorite daughter; he would never allow the Duke of Storm City to do this," Bolton exclaimed, shocked.

Lao Shiyi thought for a moment and said, "It seems you really don’t understand the Drama Master’s Clan..."

Marquis Bolton’s voice gradually lowered: "Can you save her?"

Lao Shiyi scratched his head: "Get real, we’re not knights in shining armor. We’re not the ones who killed the Fifth Princess, so that’s fortunate... Of course, without orders, we’re not really inclined to do such a thing. So now the King must have given the Fifth Princess’s real name to the Duke of Storm City, and the Demigod Arbiter using dark magic to kill an A-Class is quite easy."

"Then what are you doing now?" Bolton asked. "What does this have to do with the butler?"

Lao Shiyi laughed and said, "You probably don’t know the true identity of your butler, do you?"

"Huh?" Marquis Bolton was stunned, "What’s his identity?"

"He’s the Joker of the Eastern Continent; he’s the White Light Person in the Superconductor World," Lao Shiyi said with a bitter smile, "Do you even realize you have a ticking time bomb right next to you? He blended in as a butler and turned the Roosevelt Kingdom upside down, and if he were to become a marquis, the kingdom would be torn apart."

"Are you sure?" Bolton asked in shock.

His mind immediately went back to the time he first met the White Light Person in the Superconductor World, who spoke highly of "Flash"...

Suddenly, everything started to make sense to Bolton.

If the White Light Person was really by his side, it explained all his achievements and his narrow escapes from danger.

With such an expert around, dying might not even be easy.

"Would I speak so casually if I weren’t sure?" Lao Shiyi said calmly.

Inside the room, Bolton fell silent, but the next moment, the sound of his fists pounding on the door grew louder. Marquis Bolton bellowed in rage, "Do you want to harm my idol? Whatever you have against him, come at me!"

Outside the door, Lao Shiyi was startled, almost dropping his glass: "Are you nuts? Chasing stars at your age!?"

Bolton roared, "What are you going to do to him?"

Lao Shiyi laughed, "Relax, we aren’t going to kill him, we just have a few questions to ask him."

He finished speaking and walked away with the glass, leaving Bolton to hear only the sounds of the female soldiers laughing from afar.

Who knows how long it was before Bolton, sitting on the floor, suddenly heard a click.

Turning his head, he saw "Twenty-nine" outside the door, looking at him coldly.

Bolton instinctively backed away.

But Twenty-nine calmly asked, "You’re willing to lay down your life to save him, right?"

Bolton looked at the young Asian man in front of him: "You want me to rescue... Joker?"

Twenty-nine packaged Bolton’s phone and virtual glasses in a waterproof bag and tossed it to him.

Bolton took a glance: "Why is there no signal?"

"It’s blocked," Twenty-nine explained. "Get up and follow me westward; 800 meters in is a turbulent river. In rainy weather, fish don’t feed in the water. Drift down the river for 10 kilometers, and you’ll escape Eleventh Airship’s signal jam area; it’s the only way out."

The sweat-soaked golden hair of Bolton matted against his forehead, looking somewhat disheveled.

He asked, puzzled, "Aren’t you Lao Shiyi’s disciple? Why save Joker? Why save me? Isn’t this some kind of conspiracy?"

Twenty-nine turned and started walking away: "If it weren’t for your phone requiring iris unlock, if it weren’t for the Fifth Princess being able to help at this time, I wouldn’t be rescuing you. I knew Joker long before you did. Remember, don’t look around; even if you see Eleven’s figure, don’t look at him. He’s A-Class and will sense it."

Twenty-nine led Bolton on a stealthy path, sneaking past the ballroom in the airship filled with laughter.

Instead of rashly opening the airship’s door, they entered the engine room’s maintenance area and opened the airship’s bottom hatch.

After jumping out of the airship, they ran west through the mud.

Bolton slipped multiple times and rose again each time.

He’d never endured such a struggle in his life.

At the riverbank, the initially calm and gentle stream had become turbid and very rapid due to the heavy rain.

Bolton panicked, unable to make the jump.

The jump would mean entrusting his fate to God, and crashing into a boulder in the river could lead to an anonymous death.

Under the rain curtains, Bolton shouted, "Must we jump?"

"We must jump," Twenty-nine turned to look at him, "Otherwise, just watch Joker die."

At this moment, the airship suddenly shot a searchlight skyward.

Bolton gritted his teeth and psyched himself up, "I’m the eagle soaring above the mountains, leaping..."

Twenty-nine kicked him from behind into the muddy river, following immediately after, both drifting downstream.

...

...

In the rain.

Two mountain bikes traveled through the mire, Qing Chen and He Jinqiu becoming utterly soaked until their bikes were mired down, forcing them to continue on foot.

"The rain is too heavy," Qing Chen shouted.

He Jinqiu laughed, "I have no time to wait for it to stop."

"Let’s go then!" Qing Chen started sprinting through the rain.

Their elite A-Class skills made traversing mountains seem like walking on flat ground.

Two solitary figures swiftly sprinted towards the distant massive military base.

The two top combat power experts below the East Continent Demigods planned to shake the entire nuclear missile launch base with their own strength.

Unconsciously, an inexplicable sense of exhilaration rose in both of their hearts.

The curtain of rain was shattered by the two of them.

In the magnificent mountain peaks, they saw the distant lights. The entire Empire’s TOP military base was heavily guarded. Moving forward 500 meters, there were drone patrol tracks almost every five meters.

To break through, they must first pass through hundreds of drone blockade lines.

Qing Chen asked, "Break through by force?"

He Jinqiu chuckled, "I don’t have time to sneak in quietly; let’s break through by force! Save your methods for inside the base; I’ll handle this now!"

In the next moment, both rushed downhill simultaneously.

He Jinqiu wore a black jacket, with nine Jade Heart Swords weaving around him, forming a dense sword net.

The Jade Heart Sword firmly guarded the vicinity within a 200-meter range, piercing any drone it encountered with a sword.

Gradually, more and more drones gathered, and He Jinqiu’s Jade Heart Sword killed faster and faster.

Qing Chen casually turned his head while running and saw the Heart Swords in the curtain of rain slicing the air into white lines.

Has the rain stopped?

No.

Qing Chen looked up and unexpectedly found that the Jade Heart Sword seemed to pull out a real ’sword net’ around, even raindrops falling would be bounced off by invisible airflow.

Unexpectedly, when Hu’s Heart Sword reaches its peak, it can be so terrifying, no wonder He Jinqiu was able to handle himself alone against the tide of mice before.

Within Hu’s Information Agency, He Jinqiu has already been internally designated as the next Board Chairman, considered the person most likely to approach the founder Hu Shuo.

Such a brilliant person is unfortunately unheeded by the heavens.

Someone inside the military base has noticed the intruders. They’re manipulating drones to approach frantically, only to find that no matter how many drones they dispatch, it’s to no avail.

However, alarms didn’t sound in the military base.

Nor did they hastily request assistance from nearby military bases.

It seemed like they were prepared, waiting for the intruders to arrive.

The Drama Master had already foreseen the impending future.

In the bottom of subterranean shafts, the robots originally standing charging lit their white eyes.

Immediately, elevators started up, and hundreds of war machines quickly rose to the surface.

Each is equipped with a miniature nuclear-powered Mechanical Heart, able to fly into the sky, remotely fire pulses, with an insulation coating resistant to Electromagnetic Pulses, seemingly insurmountable.

Such a mechanical force, even if Qing’s Shadow Corps attempted to break in, would likely be completely annihilated.

This is the most crucial military base within the Kingdom, its armored forces frighteningly powerful.

Qing Chen suddenly said, "Slow down, let’s attack in twenty minutes!"

He Jinqiu looked at him, "Drama Master?"

"In a place like this, there’s definitely a Drama Master," Qing Chen calmly said, "So, our coming here has long been ’seen’."

This is also the reason Qing Chen chose to break through by force, in front of a Drama Master, the so-called ambush is nothing but self-deception.

But time is the weapon to defeat the Drama Master.

As Qing Chen and He Jinqiu rapidly got closer, there was an even faster black silhouette.

In the next moment, the Silhouette first broke through the sword net woven by He Jinqiu, seeing it reach the high wall outside the military base, it lightly leapt and crossed the four-meter electric grid.

Within the base, the metal storm activated its targeting program, a barrage faster than the curtain of rain intertwined, momentarily indistinguishable whether on the Silhouette were raindrops or bullets.

Pain temporarily flooded into Qing Chen’s mind, everything endured by the Silhouette was instantaneously transmitted to Qing Chen’s body.

The Silhouette’s weakness is its brow; as long as it’s not hit in the brow it would be alright, thus a new bug appeared.

Qing Chen slightly frowned, yet clenched his teeth, manipulating the Silhouette to break through the barrage, using its hand to cover its brow rapidly approaching the metal storm, then, unexpectedly with great ferocity, dismantled the ammo compartment with one hand!

One, two, three... Metal storms thus in such a simple and brutal way were rendered useless by the Silhouette!

The war robots had already flown into the sky, continuously firing on the Silhouette, yet it remained immortal.

In the sky, dazzling pulse cannon, on the ground, the Silhouette covering its forehead.

In the military base, the commander looked coldly at the monitoring of this unmatched Silhouette.

He ordered, "Pin it down, proceed as planned."

In the next moment, the back of the war robots opened, launching nets woven of alloy.

With several bangs, dense metal nets fell over it, trapping the Silhouette tightly within.

As time ticked by, the war robots forcibly pinned down the Silhouette, pried open its hand covering the forehead, and fired at the brow.

With a bang, the Silhouette dissipated.

As written in destiny, it concluded.

The commander looked at the young Drama Master in black robes beside him, "Are there any further attacks?"

The Drama Master glanced at the time on his watch, then nodded, "Yes, Joker is coming. My father foresaw I would get injured... but eventually, we can catch the opponent."

This intricate fate leaves the enemy helpless.

The Drama Master has already seen the outcome of fate.
