Night’s Nomenclature

24. The center of the world

The prison was quiet, and everyone vaguely guessed that Guo Huchan, a bald man, would have a fight with Uncle Li after he came in, so everyone wanted to see what would happen.

At this moment, Guo Huchan followed everyone's gaze and came straight to Li Shutong.

He said in a loud voice: "Let's not beat around the bush. I'm here this time just for the forbidden object ACE-005. You tell me where it is kept in the prison, and I'll take it and leave."

Li Shutong patted the big cat and told it to go aside. Then he smiled gently and said, "You have to be polite when facing seniors so that you won't suffer easily."

Guo Huchan said nonchalantly: "If you give me the forbidden item ACE-005, I will naturally be more polite to you."

Li Shutong was curious: "Why is the Spades Organization suddenly interested in forbidden objects? From your tone, I thought you had joined the Forbidden Tribunal."

Guo Huchan slowly came to a place five meters away from Li Shutong and stood there: "If I want to fight against those behemoths, I, Spades, can't let go of all the help. Your knight organization and our goals have the same goal, so we should understand our situation."

Li Shutong smiled and said: "But why did you come to find this forbidden object in Prison No. 18 first?"

"There are rumors from the outside that the Chen Consortium has made an agreement with you. As long as you can contain and suppress it, you will be given absolute freedom in Prison No. 18. The taboo object that you, Li Shutong, will personally contain and suppress, must be particularly powerful," Guo Huchan said .

"You misunderstood. I have never done any transactions with Mr. Chen," Li Shutong explained patiently: "Don't make random judgments based on hearsay."

Qingchen listened silently. The last time he saw the words "Forbidden Inquisition" was in He Xiaoxiao's strategy video.

And this taboo tribunal seems to exist specifically for taboo objects.

He realized that the forbidden object Guo Huchan mentioned should also be what he was looking for. It might be the test mission of the Shadow War in which he was involved.

At this time, Guo Huchan took a step forward again: "Where is ACE-005?"

Li Shutong shook his head: "I know, but I won't tell you."

"Why?" Guo Huchan took another step, and the tattoo-like totem on his body seemed to come alive, twisting wildly and changing patterns.

With a thud, everyone felt that even the ground was shaking slightly when they took this step.

Li Shutong smiled: "No reason, because I quite like ACE-005."

More than three thousand prisoners began to riot. They had been suffocating in Prison No. 18 for too long. There were guards guarding them at any time and at any time. The invisible order bound everyone like shackles. But now... it was chaos that had not been seen for a long time.

As a result, 36 of the 72 Metal Storms on the Iron Sky began to rotate rapidly.

The prisoners exclaimed. In the past, they would have to riot for half an hour. The metal storm would only start after the mechanical guards could not control the situation.

But this time it was different. It started directly before they started to riot!

At this time, apart from Li Shutong and Guo Huchan who were in the center of the whirlpool, only Qingchen looked up at the steel sky without any distractions.

No one noticed in the chaos that he took a few steps back, then turned and walked in another direction.

In an instant, Guo Huchan stepped forward and punched out. The bell-like fist rushed towards the door in front of Li Shutong, moving like thunder.

What followed was the movement of Metal Storm's gun barrel, and 36 icy machines began to burst out with gunfire, suppressing all the prisoners in Prison No. 18 indiscriminately.

Not metal bullets, but rubber bullets.

These 36 Metal Storms are purely for suppression, while the other 36 are the real killer weapons.

Rubber bullets rained down like a rain, and the prisoners were knocked upside down after being beaten.

Guo Huchan's fist was like thunder, and there was a thunderstorm in Prison No. 18.

But in the next moment, the fist suddenly stopped, and Li Shutong raised his hand in front of him with a smile, and stopped the roaring fist force.

Li Shutong stood motionless in front of Guo Huchan, as steady as a mountain.

He turned around to see if Qingchen was alright. After all, this boy was different from them, he was just an ordinary person.

But Li Shutong was suddenly stunned.

Because Qingchen, two meters behind him, was sitting calmly at the dining table where he usually sat, where he watched the endgame of chess every day.

36 Metal Storms used rubber bullets to suppress the riots in the prison indiscriminately. The ballistics were densely intertwined, but Qingchen was sitting in the blind spot of all the ballistics.

The only shooting blind spot in Prison No. 18.

It rained heavily.

But not a drop fell on the young man.

It was as if that boy was the center of the world.

The black rain from the steel sky gradually stopped.

Except for Qingchen, Ye Wan, Guo Huchan, Li Shutong, and Lin Xiaoxiao, all the prisoners lay on the ground holding their heads in pain.

Everyone was in pain all over, and some people were too slow to lie down, and their noses and faces were bruised and swollen by the metal storm.

Compared with the embarrassment of these people, Qingchen, who was sitting peacefully at the dining table, actually had an aloof and aloof temperament.

For some reason, Li Shutong always felt that he liked this young man more and more the more he saw him, even though he had only known him for a few days.

The other party's temperament and abilities are not possessed by people of the same age.

Is this the shadow that Qing will choose?

When can you find such a successor on your side?

Thinking of this, he pushed Guo Huchan's fist out with the palm of his hand. This move seemed random, but Guo Huchan's figure actually stepped back five or six meters before he could stand still.

Guo Huchan stopped being reckless and sat cross-legged on the spot to adjust his breathing.

From the beginning to the end of this battle, he just made the opponent's white training uniform shake a few times.

In the past, there were always rumors that Li Shutong could be called a demi-god in the world, but his fame has been so long ago that young masters like Guo Huchan have never seen him with his own eyes.

This time the Spade Organization asked him to come to Prison No. 18 to find the ACE-005 forbidden object, and also to see where Li Shutong's strength is now.

Now Guo Huchan has understood that the gap between him and Li Shutong is still as wide as a chasm.

Li Shutong looked away from Qingchen, turned to look at Guo Huchan and said with a smile, "Do you still want to fight?"

The bald man, whose totems all over his body had returned to calmness, said in a deep voice: "If you don't want to fight, don't fight. If you can't fight, why fight? Don't worry, even if you don't tell me, I can still find the ACE-005 forbidden object."

Qingchen felt that this bald head was a bit interesting.

It was clear that he had wanted to fight to the death just now, but now he suddenly gave in.

The opponent was not as fierce as he looked. After the fight, he became a bachelor.

The change in attitude before and after is a bit big.

However, what Guo Huchan was thinking was that since Li Shutong knew the location of the forbidden object, he would follow him. What if the other party let it slip?

"It's okay, look for it slowly," Li Shutong nodded nonchalantly.

He no longer cared about Guo Huchan, but walked to the opposite side of Qingchen's dining table and sat down: "Was this position calculated?"

Qingchen shook his head: "Although my calculation ability is much better than that of ordinary people, I am currently unable to undertake such a huge ballistic calculation. I can only make a rough guess."

Li Shutong also shook his head: "A guess is probably not enough to support you in finding this location so accurately."

"After a short calculation, I only locked 4 areas, and the place where you must sit every day happens to be among these options, so there is no need to forget the rest," Qingchen said calmly.

Qingchen was betting by sitting here, but he was right again.

He has always done well in multiple-choice questions based on probability and judgment.
