Li Dongze first met Qing Chen in the Octagon Cage of the Begonia Boxing Gym. When he watched the boy box, he thought he was pretty good. No wonder he was the owner's apprentice. A person like that deserved to be a knight.

Perhaps all messengers would scrutinize Qing Chen, this future leader, with a critical eye.

After all, the leaders of the Knights throughout history have all been the most outstanding people.

However, at that time, Li Dongze's evaluation of Qing Chen was only "not bad". He could accept having this person lead him in the future, but he couldn't say he admired him much.

The competition with Su Xingzhi is merely a matter of hard work, and has little to do with Qing Chen.

But things changed later.

The A02 Base incident was a landmark turning point.

As it turns out, the Qing family head was right about one thing: if you really want to hand over the hearts and minds of the Qing family's intelligence agency to him, then you need to be even more ruthless.

At that time, whether it was the Knight Organization or the Qing clan's intelligence agency and Shadow Unit, they all needed Qing Chen to do something that could truly win people's hearts.

Without this event, one cannot truly admire someone from the bottom of one's heart.

The head of the Qing family told Shadow: He has to do something that no one else can do.

Therefore, the head of the Qing family sent Qing Chen through hell, which led to Qing Chen's current reputation.

Li Dongze now admires Qing Chen from the bottom of his heart, whether it's maintaining his principles while enduring humiliation in the pigsty, or Qing Chen's ability to calmly fight his way out and take more than nine hundred people with him.

These are all things he honestly knew he could never do.

There was also the later killing of Kamiyo Yunhe and the capture of Kamishiro Seisho.

Perhaps even Kamishiro Seisho doesn't know that his life has become a footnote to Qing Chen's life.

Whenever Qing Chen is mentioned, he is always used as a foil.

At this moment, Li Dongze was already a little angry as he looked at the soldiers who were about to attack Qing Chen.

The Knight Organization have been quiet for so long that many people think... that killing the next leader of the Knight Organization will not come without a price?

What is it that has led people to this misconception?

Li Dongze looked at the force of over four hundred men with a cold smile, then said to the eleven messengers behind him, "Kill them all!"

Return countdown: 1:00:00.

Yang Yang was still maintaining the gravity field on the battlefield, making all soldiers feel heavy as if they were wearing shackles when they tried to get close.

After a brief recovery by Zard, the crops are harvested using gravel.

On this cold winter night, beads of sweat slid down her thin chin and fell to the ground.

Yang Yang persevered with great difficulty and was almost unable to hold on.

But she still didn't wake Qing Chen, wanting Qing Chen to reminisce a little longer.

At this moment, Zhang Mengqian said, "Look, another army is coming from the east."

Everyone turned to look, and there were people all over the kilometer away where Xiao Mengqian had spoken!

Chen's Field Division has arrived. Apart from those who stayed behind in the wilderness, there are more than 6,000 people who have arrived at the battlefield!

An army of this size, even a demigod couldn't kill it all!

Yang Yang sighed and silently apologized to Qing Chen.

More than two thousand people are approaching from nearby.

More than 6,000 people are on their way from a distance.

She had to wake Qing Chen up before she left.

Just as she was about to wake Qing Chen, she saw paper swallows flying across the sky.

Everyone was stunned.

Swifts?

A paper swift?

Why would a paper swift appear on such a desolate battlefield?

Gradually, more and more swifts appeared in the sky, numbering over a hundred.

The swifts circled in the sky above Zard's head, sometimes forming an S shape, sometimes a B shape.

It seemed to be a silent mockery of this traitor.

Zard chuckled and exclaimed, "Ahhh, my big brother's here!"

As he spoke, he stood up and waved his arms to greet the letters S and B in the sky, as if his older brother were inside those two letters.

As they spoke, the swifts that had been slowly circling began to speed up.

They scattered and flew toward the soldiers closest to Zard.

The sharp, piercing sound of swifts cutting through the air was deafening. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of swifts pierced through the soldiers one by one, like bullets.

Swifts are not bullets; the resistance they encounter when entering the human body is far greater than that of bullets.

But those swifts were like sharp knives, either slicing across the necks of Chen Clan soldier 'Chen Clan soldier or piercing through their chests.

No hindrance whatsoever!

Not content with piercing through one soldier, a swift used its momentum to pierce through another soldier behind it.

When the swift kills, the white paper swift suddenly turns blood-red, as if the swift is weeping blood.

Looking at the swifts, Zhang Mengqian felt as if he were looking at a bizarre and wonderful world. Everything that happened today was a magical sight that he could never have seen in his entire life in the slums, and that he could not even see on the internet.

At that moment, a pale-faced young man, wearing a pair of nice white headphones, sat on a hillside and sneered, "Qing Chen, I'm not here to save you, I'm here to save Zard. This has nothing to do with you. Zard will be back soon. Let's see how you explain this to me later. Without you, my brother folds swifts for me, but with you here, he folds Little Jumping Frog. This isn't over between us."

Huan Yu arrived, but to his dismay, he was the one who wanted to kill Qing Chen, but now Zard was forcing him to save Qing Chen as well.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Huan Yu controlled two swifts to fly towards Qing Chen.

But before the swift could land, Zard had already stepped in front of Qing Chen.

Huan Yu nearly coughed up blood in anger. "You son of a bitch! You son of a bitch!"

Huan Yu immediately followed up with a tirade. "I bought you time, so why don't you run? What are you standing there for?! Do you really think I can kill over two thousand soldiers?! Wait, why are more people rushing out?!"

To the northeast, yet another army unit appeared.

However, Qing Chen remained standing there.

But from the direction of Forbidden Zone No. 002, a tremendous roar was heard.

That roaring sound... was like the footsteps of a wild beast, like a herd of horses galloping recklessly across the wilderness!

The next moment, a ferocious giant covered in scars appeared in everyone's sight, carrying a large tree in his hand, followed by an endless herd of wild boars.

The giant seemed like a king of the wilderness. He felt Huan Yu's gaze on him and gave Huan Yu a cold look in return.

Huan Yu was stunned. What was going on? The giant in the Forbidden Zone was actually an A-level? And it even had a sixth sense!

The giant waved a tree in his hand, and the herd of wild boars obediently began to charge, blocking the newly arrived troops on their way.

Gu Dong picked up a light tank from the ground and used it to shield himself from the hail of bullets.

Ding Dong followed her younger brother's example, charging forward with a light tank in hand. Although she was very scared, she still encouraged Qing Chen.

"Ding Dong!"

(I told you my friend wouldn't break his promise, it was you bad people who stopped him!)

Qing Chen remained standing there.

He had a very long dream.

He dreamt that he was a student in District 7 of City No. 5, nervously preparing for the Qinghe University entrance exam after the new year.

He will then need to hitch a ride to City No. 10, which will be a considerable expense.

Qing Chen carried his schoolbag, rode the light rail, listened to the analysis of history exam questions on his headphones over and over again, and looked at the information technology class supplementary textbook in his hand.

Qinghe University's unified entrance examination does not include an English subject, but instead adds an information technology course.

In this day and age, one can live without English, but one cannot live without information technology skills, and one cannot live without computer programming and application skills.

Huh, English?

What is English?

Qing Chen, the boy from the Inner World, sat on the light rail, puzzled. He didn't know how the word had popped into his head; it was rather strange.

However, he didn't think too much about it and just continued reading.

Upon arriving at the station, Qing Chen slipped out of the light rail through the crowded throng and walked briskly towards his home.

As he passed through the streets of District 7, someone noticed his intact body and quickly approached him. "Want to sell your organs? The Chen Corporation recently released a new transparent phone; you can get it with one kidney and still have some pocket money left!"

Qing Chen was stunned for a moment, but before he could say anything, his sister-in-law Ning Xiu, holding a spatula and wearing an apron, stormed out of the stairwell, looking furious. Like a fierce mother tigress protecting her cubs, she rushed to Qing Chen's side and berated the old man who had seduced Qing Chen: "Old Wang, how shameless of you! My Qing Chen is going to Qinghe University to take the entrance exam! You dare to trick him into selling his organs? I'll beat your brains out!"

As she spoke, Ning Xiu brandished the shovel in her hand, wishing she could just split Old Wang's head open.

Old Wang felt guilty. "I only said it once."

"Shut up!" Ning Xiu yelled angrily, "We've been neighbors for years, have you no shame? Get out of here, or his brother and father will beat you to death when they get back!"

Qing Chen stared blankly at his sister-in-law, only to see that she had tied all her long, beautiful hair back with a simple hair tie, and her beautiful face was without any makeup.

For some reason, he suddenly felt like crying.

He didn't know why either.

Seeing that Qing Chen's eyes were red, his sister-in-law said somewhat apologetically, "Was I too fierce just now? Did I scare you? Hurry home and study. Dinner will be served when your father and brother get back. Don't worry, we have three grown men in our family. No one in District Seven will dare to bully us now."

That's how it is in the Lower Three Districts. The more men in a family, the less likely they are to be bullied, and the more confident they are.

However, Qing Chen's father always said it was a pity that he didn't have a daughter, and that he wished Qing Chen were a girl...

"Okay, sure," Qing Chen walked into the stairwell, feeling that something was off about today.

While reviewing, he felt somewhat distracted, as if he had forgotten something.

In this one-bedroom apartment, the only bedroom was given to Qing Chen.

Originally, the father said that his older brother and sister-in-law should live in the house so that they could have a big, healthy son soon, but his older brother insisted on giving that bedroom to Qing Chen.

He said that Xiaochen was still in the review stage and was most afraid of being disturbed, so he wanted Xiaochen to live in the bedroom.

This way, Xiaochen can sleep a little longer each day without being woken up by outside noise.

The rest of the family can just sleep on the floor in the living room and squeeze in together.

That evening, my father and brother returned home, covered in paint, dust, and sawdust from the renovation.

The older brother glanced into the house. Qing Chen looked up and saw his brother smiling as he walked in. He secretly took two chocolates out of his pocket and placed them on the table. "My coworker said that eating this stuff can make students smarter. I bought you two. Eat them up."

Qing Chen choked for a long time. "What kind of feudal superstition is this? Eating chocolate won't make you smarter."

"Who said that? Eat up," the older brother said, pretending to be serious.

Just then, her sister-in-law's gentle voice came from outside. "Go wash your hands and eat. I have good news for you. I found an office job today! This way, you won't have to work so hard, and Xiaochen won't have to worry so much about the travel expenses to City No. 10."

For some reason, Qing Chen suddenly burst into tears at his desk in the bedroom. He didn't know why he was so sad, but he felt that there had never been a day more painful than today in his life.

Gradually, his crying grew louder and louder.

He remembered; he wasn't Qing Chen, the boy from the Inner World.

He is the Lord of Daybreak, the next leader of the Knights, and the future master of the Qing Clan!

He is Time Walker!

Qing Chen!

He finally remembered that when he was one and a half years old, Shadow had secretly carried him out of the Ginkgo Manor to show Ning Xiu his precious younger brother.

So, when he was one and a half years old, he met that gentle woman who haunted his brother's dreams—his sister-in-law.

He remembered everything.

At this moment, the older brother slowly walked into the bedroom and asked softly, "You remember everything now?"

"Yes," Qing Chen nodded frantically, crying, but he wished he hadn't remembered.

He longed to have such an older brother and such a sister-in-law.

If only he were just an ordinary teenager from City Five in the Inner World.

"Go back if you remember," the older brother said gently. "Don't cry."

"I don't want to go back," Qing Chen said.

"No, you can't," Qing Zhun gently wiped away his tears. "You should go back. There are people waiting for you over there."

"Thank you, brother. In the next life, please be my brother again."

"Good."

Return countdown: 30:00:00.

Huan Yu shouted angrily, "Get out of here! I can't hold on much longer! Are you all stupid? Someone's coming to rescue us, and instead of running, you're just standing there waiting for some idiot?!"

"Traitor, run!"

He hadn't even finished killing the two thousand people nearby when the six thousand people in the distance were already almost there. Zard would be dead for sure, and everyone else would die too!

However, at that moment, Huan Yu suddenly looked up.

A fierce energy fluctuation permeated and erupted in the space.

This terrifying energy was so powerful that even without anyone looking at him with murderous intent, Huan Yu could still feel a real sense of crisis.

In an instant, golden lightning shot into the sky.

Then, Qing Chen, who had been standing there asleep for an unknown amount of time, opened his eyes.

He looked at Zard and Yang Yang and said, "You've worked hard, take a rest."

The next moment, the pulse magnetic fields within all their bodies were formed, and in the blink of an eye, the war robots and mechanical spiders that charged at the forefront were all turned into a pile of scrap metal.

The powerful electromagnetic pulse turned all the electronic components within a one-kilometer radius of the battlefield into scrap metal in just one breath!

The Chen Clan soldier who had just arrived saw that something was wrong and began firing even before they were within firing range. There was also a barrage of metal bullets fired from a great distance.

Bullets rained down like a dense, dark rainstorm.

This time, Zard didn't use an earthen wall as a barrier.

Suddenly, Qing Chen raised his arm, and an electromagnetic field condensed on his right hand.

He said softly, "You Ju."

A terrifying scene suddenly unfolded: the metal bullets were suspended in mid-air by the powerful electromagnetic repulsion.

The fierce electromagnetic repulsion force is so strong that even bullets cannot penetrate it!

Those bullets suspended in mid-air were like raindrops frozen in time.

Before the bullets stood a world ruler who could command the gods.

At this moment, Qing Chen said softly, "Wu Ju!"

Amidst the raging wind and torrential rain, the bullets that had been hovering in front of the godlike boy all flew back in the opposite direction.

What gunfire and bullets?

What metal storm?

This is the true nemesis of modern firearms technology, a real humanoid weapon!

There have been lightning-type Awakened before, but before this, no one had ever been able to utilize the power of lightning so precisely, so extremely, and so terrifyingly!

Huan Yu watched this scene calmly from afar and muttered, "Holy crap."

The countdown has reached zero.

Return.

The world was plunged into darkness.

This journey through time was exceptionally long for Qing Chen.
