Naming Technique of the Night

The middle-aged man looked at the officer's corpse, "I had already ordered... drag this piece of trash away!"

Company Sergeant Major Ning Shun had a mournful look on his face, "Commander, our comrades were also killed by the rules, that young man unnoticedly made us fall into the trap!"

"Eh, where is Cao Wei?" The middle-aged man seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked with his surname leading, "Why haven't I seen Cao Wei?"

Ning Shun replied, "Afterward, Commander Cao Wei went alone to kill that young man and hasn't come back since, Commander Qing Huai said... he must be dead."

The middle-aged man said sternly, "What nonsense are you talking about, Cao Wei is a C-Class Expert and has enhanced his senses with a Genetic Potion, you're telling me he went to kill an Ordinary Person and ended up dead himself?!"

The middle-aged man knew exactly who Cao Wei was, because his current position as the commander of this field camp was originally Cao Wei's!

That was someone who counted as someone significant in the military!

He had wanted to ask Cao Wei about the situation, but the other party was dead?!

Ning Shun said, "Commander, you can quarantine and interrogate all of us, and if there is a half-truth in what I said, you can send us to the military court."

In fact, by the time she heard this much, Li Yinuo was certain that the young man was Qing Chen.

Nan Gengchen, who had been beside her all along with an expressionless face, as if daydreaming, was internally commenting: With Brother Chen's intelligence, it's entirely justifiable that he played you to death.

And those from the Autumn Hunting Team and the Jindai family who were still in the dark, heard the truth for the first time.

Before this, Qing Huai's claim had been: They had completed the mission and returned early.

Although everyone had their doubts, who would have thought it was them being hunted down by a young man.

Moreover, the sheer disparity in numbers was staggering, on one side an entire field company, and on the other, a single young man.

This truth was a bit too intense!

The crowd exchanged looks, none had heard of such a person emerging on the scene!

The middle-aged man's eyebrows were almost twisted together, "Explain the specifics!"

"He took us to an eerie thicket where he could easily traverse, but when our men went through, they were crushed to pieces..."

"We cornered him into the Thunder Zone, but he dodged all the anti-infantry mines as if he had a metal detector, avoiding them with precision... "

"The young man sang a song, and left us with only one platoon left..." Ning Shun said.

"He sang a song? And killed dozens of you?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment.

"Yes," Ning Shun nodded, and he was economical with his words when it came to the rules, afraid to trigger any of them.

The middle-aged man frowned, he had never heard of a rule where singing could kill: "What song did he sing? Can you talk about this?"

Ning Shun hurriedly said, "Reporting to the Commander, I can say this, it's not that the singing itself can kill people, but..."

"Then sing it for me," said the middle-aged man.

Ning Shun sang, "Under the bridge in front of the gate, a flock of ducks swam by..."

A clan scion suddenly burst into laughter, "I know this song too, come on come on let's count them, two four six seven eight..."

The clan scion, dead.

Everyone's eyes widened, almost all guessing the truth about the rule, wanting to say something, yet daring not to speak.

Li Yinuo suddenly felt a toothache, this interrogation was getting troublesome!

She said to the middle-aged man, "Disperse the others, just a few of us knowing the situation will suffice."

The middle-aged man nodded, "Miss Yino, Mr. Jindai Yasuhito stay, the rest of you leave! Deputy Officer Wang, you stay as well! Ning Shun, continue!"

Nan Gengchen was about to leave but was held back by Li Yinuo, who said to the middle-aged man, "This is my man, no need to go."

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, "Alright."

Ning Shun said, "Commander, that young man is very weird, extremely familiar with the rules of Taboo Land 002 and also very familiar with the terrain here, it's like his own home. We tried to hunt him, but he always found terrain to shake us off. He ran through the wilderness as if on flat ground..."

"A wilderness person?" the middle-aged man asked.

Only wilderness people could run through the mountains and fields so effortlessly because they grew up in such environments.

Ning Shun thought about it and honestly responded, "Commander, we can't be certain whether he is a wilderness person or not, but his clothing... doesn't look like that of Federation people."

At that time, Qing Chen had already changed into the clothes Qin Tong usually wore for hunting, indeed not resembling Federal people.

"Wait, does he have mechanical limbs?" asked the middle-aged man.

"No," Ning Shun replied, "Our Seventh Company didn't have a face-to-face fight with him, but if he had mechanical limbs, the soldiers who encountered him would have reported it first thing, because that's significant intelligence."

Now the middle-aged man felt the other was even more characteristic of a wilderness person.

Just then, Li Yinuo casually mentioned, "Hearing him mention a wilderness person, I suddenly recall something. Before entering the Taboo Land, we were chased by wilderness people, but this group wasn't simple, because there were people from the Fire Pit among them."

"Fire Pit!?" The middle-aged man's breath hitched for a moment, the Federal Group's military didn't need to fear the Fire Pit, as they had to hide from a regular army just the same.

But the problem was that they weren't supposed to appear here.

He looked toward the Jindai clansmen, Jindai Yasuhito, who nodded in confirmation.

Li Yinuo continued, "The Fire Pit wiped out the Jindai family in the wilderness and forced us into the Taboo Land, before that I suspected they were led by elders, otherwise they wouldn't have wiped out the Jindai family so easily."
