Chapter 73: Wang Blows the Horn

In this world, the summer days are the longest and the nights are the shortest, while in winter, it is the opposite, with longer nights and shorter days.

This phenomenon is no different from another dimension.

But in the previous life, this was due to the changes in celestial bodies.

"In this dimension, during winter, the ancient gods become more active, and strange events also increase significantly. Is this related to the longer nights?

"From a logical perspective, does this mean that the core essence of the three ancient gods is actually a manifestation of the 'nighttime rule'?"

Cheng Han stared at the gradually dimming sky, lost in thought.

"For these tens of thousands of years, the three ancient gods have never been completely eradicated. Could it be because they are a part of the rules themselves?

"And rules are the foundation of a world, naturally possessing the characteristic of 'immortality,' so the ancient gods will not perish?

"This possibility cannot be ruled out..."

At this moment, a crisp female voice floated over from the side: "Cheng Han, what are you daydreaming about again?"

It was Qian Qingqing.

Today happened to be a rest day for the preparatory class, and all the students who had completed their seals did not need to participate in training. Therefore, Cheng Han rarely attended a self-study class.

And as he looked out the window, the sight of the little girl looking at her desk partner was a common occurrence in Class 3-2.

Cheng Han snapped back to reality and pondered for a moment before answering seriously, "I'm thinking about what to eat tonight."

A third-year middle school student who constantly pondered things like ancient gods and rules was almost floating in outer space.

The most important thing in life is to stay grounded!

Qian Qingqing almost blurted out, "I'll cook for you," but luckily she reacted quickly and changed her sentence on the spot, saying, "You're working hard by yourself."

Cheng Han agreed, "Indeed, it's hard!"

While the other students in the school could go home happily after school to eat, drink, and play, he had to worry about the troubles of the ancient god's followers.

It's too hard!

Qian Qingqing didn't respond, just blinked her beautiful eyes, her mind lost in thought.

On the other side.

Wan Tengjiao suddenly stood up, first glanced at a certain school supervisor out of habit, and then loudly said, "According to the school rules, it's snowing today, so we'll be dismissed thirty minutes early!"

This was the duty of the class monitor.

The classroom immediately erupted in excitement.

Cheng Han greeted the little girl and quickly walked out of the classroom.

The stage had already been set up, and the performance was about to begin. He had to go home early.

*

Nightfall enveloped the land.

The black cat did not lie next to the fireplace as usual, assuming the posture of an "old farmer," enjoying the warmth of the flames.

It understood that the big show was about to begin, walking back and forth in the living room, occasionally looking up at its owner.

Cheng Han calculated again and let out a long breath, "It's time."

After several days of hard work and strenuous arrangements, the moment of activation had finally arrived.

"Meow~"

The black cat stopped in its tracks.

Cheng Han gently stroked its head and muttered, "The battle between the extraordinary beings will have a very wide range of impact, especially since they probably carry powerful items.

"I am the 'director' of this grand show and must consider the personal safety of the civilians. Therefore, the 'stage' of the performance should be set outside the city."

The black cat flicked its tail.

It agreed with this.

Cheng Han quietly activated the residual imprint of spirit control and established a connection with the black cat, issuing a command.

The cat group was the black cat's subordinates, and the two sides had established a peculiar connection. Naturally, he could indirectly control the cat group through the sheriff.

This was more covert.

And safer.

A very obscure wave of source energy swept by in an instant.

Wang blew the horn.

The knights of the night began to move.

*

Tongshen Freight.

Two undercover cats appeared silently in the pitch-black storage area like dark ghosts.

They took a few light steps and stopped, their faces alert as they stared ahead.

Black-sama said that there was a terrible danger lurking there, so they must not go over.

Black-sama also said that that guy is a big fool, thinking he's hiding very well, but every cat here knows it very well.

Hmph!

We, the cat clan, are so amazing!

A yellow cat sniffed the snow and extended a paw, quietly scraping away some snow, revealing a blue brick underneath.

Below was a drainage ditch.

Although it was completely covered by accumulated snow, the undercover cats were very familiar with this place and could easily find the ditch even with their eyes closed.

Another calico cat approached and spat out a small ball.

This was an item the cat group found while rummaging through the garbage.

It was also the "transportation vehicle" for this operation.

A group of furry ants crawled out of the small ball and quickly disappeared into a crack, vanishing into the drainage ditch.

Two cats excitedly locked eyes for a moment and quietly left.

The task is complete!

In the silent night, the Meow Knights demonstrated their loyalty to the king fearlessly.

*

In the drain.

Dozens of wool ants formed a long line and were struggling to move forward.

The nighttime temperature was so low that the cold was constantly eroding their bodies. As cold-blooded insects, they didn't have much time left.

Before long.

The ant colony arrived near a warehouse.

Instinct from life made them feel uneasy.

But the implanted imprint in their souls allowed the ant colony to resist fear and rush into the unknown area.

This was a charge towards death!

Ten seconds later.

The ant colony finally stopped in its tracks.

They first formed a cluster, then quickly dispersed and arranged themselves into a strange pattern, motionless, waiting for the end.

The leading wool ant crawled to the center of the pattern.

Its antennae moved slightly, and a fluctuation flashed through its body.

"Bang!"

The wool ant exploded.

The task is complete!

In the chilling winter night, the Ant Knights demonstrated their loyalty to the king with their lives.

*

Inside a nearby warehouse.

In that instant.

A black-robed figure hidden among them first froze, then became alert: "Something's not right! Why is there a fire-type energy fluctuation outside?"

The fluctuation was very subtle, but because of the close proximity, he still sensed it clearly.

It was precisely because the fluctuation was so small that he stayed in place. Otherwise, he would have forcefully rushed out at the first moment.

The black-robed figure decisively waved his hand.

A tentacle made of black mist suddenly burst out from his robe, penetrated the wall without any hindrance, and drilled into the snow, entering the drain.

From this scene, the tentacle seemed to be an invisible ethereal body.

After a moment.

The black-robed figure was greatly alarmed.

Using the tentacle's vision, he saw a group of wool ants lying quietly in the dried-up drain.

And these little creatures were actually arranged into two characters.

It was none other than "Quick Escape!"

*

Shan Yi Lane.

The cold outside was bone-chilling.

But inside the house, warm firelight filled the room.

The black cat crouched on the ground, listening to its owner's narration.

"...When Zha Gu saw the word 'escape,' he must have had many questions in his mind, but no matter what, this guy will definitely follow it."

Cheng Han's tone was calm but filled with strong confidence.

"Because he is a timid bird, always in a state of uncertainty, he can't afford to take risks. He can only leave as soon as possible and find another hiding place."

The black cat perked up its ears, greatly admiring its owner.

Just two simple words scared the enemy away.

The owner is truly amazing!

"This little prank will also make Zha Gu feel that Qinglin City is no longer safe. Even a cunning rabbit has three burrows, and he definitely has a backup hideout."

"And this hideout must be in the other cities of the Tai'an Little Spirit Realm. Qinglin City is located at the southernmost end of the Little Spirit Realm, so Zha Gu will definitely choose to leave the city."

Cheng Han chuckled, "Zha Gu's escape direction will definitely be north, and it can only be north!"

The term "north" was emphasized.

Cheng Han scratched his cat's ear with his finger. "The 'male lead' burdened with a tragic fate has already made his dazzling appearance, and the antagonist is about to take his place. A destined duel is about to unfold."

The black cat twitched its ears and suddenly wanted to witness what a "destined duel" was.

*

North of the city.

Two dark figures stood beside a farmland, looking at the building ahead.

In the quiet night, their low conversation sounded particularly clear.

"There are too many night owls in the urban area. They are the eyes and ears of the mysterious people. Now is the period when the night owls are active, and we must not be discovered by the flock of birds."

"I just checked around the city, and there are night owl flocks distributed in all directions except for the north."

"Then let's infiltrate from the north!"

"Good! The north!"

Received notice from the editor, it will be published at midnight tonight.

Also.

Thanks for the reward from the "Exclusive Ming Team."
