Chapter 124

~10 min read 1,888 words

The spear burning with pale golden flames was thrown from Zhou Yun's hand, drawing a sharp straight line in the air, piercing through the Neurothrope's crown-like chitinous carapace like cutting tofu, penetrating its huge brain exposed to the air.

Zhou Yun relied on instinct to vibrate the wings behind his back, stepping on the Neurothrope's head like a falcon swooping down, heavily pulling out the spear condensed from scorching psychic power, and blood and brain matter sprayed out as a result.

The Neurothrope let out a sharp wail, and the powerful psychic shriek was released along with its death.

This uncontrolled psychic power spread along the connection between the swarm, and psychic flames soon burst out on the Zoanthropes floating around the Neurothrope.

Having lost the Neurothrope, they were already unable to contain their own psychic power, and were burned by their own Warp power in their brains.

Other lower-level Tyranid organisms that relied on the Neurothrope and Zoanthropes' wisdom also let out wails.

The spreading psychic shriek ignited the nerves of these Tyranid organisms, and most of them fell to the ground twitching.

Only the remaining few Tyrant guards and the Hive Tyrant itself still stood in place, staring fixedly at Zhou Yun, who was stepping on the Neurothrope's head and had pure white wings.

Zhou Yun, while stuffing the demon on the ground into his Four-Dimensional Pocket, stared fixedly at the Hive Tyrant.

In his eyes, the Hive Tyrant's figure became somewhat blurry; its head covered by chitin seemed to turn into a shiny bald head, and the carapace all over its body also turned into power armor embedded with the Eye of Horus...

He was as huge as a giant... Horus, Horus the Deceiver, Horus the Traitor, his brother Horus...

Tyrant guards—no, Horus's guards beside their blasphemous father...

Was this Ashford or the Vengeful Spirit?

Zhou Yun couldn't tell.

He only knew that he would vibrate his wings and complete his final flight—

Zhou Yun's figure came to the Hive Tyrant's side in the blink of an eye, with heavy darkness in his eyes burning with firelight.

"Horus!!!!!"

Zhou Yun roared out the sound, and the spear burning with firelight slashed down in the blink of an eye.

Horus's sons clad in power armor blocked in front of him.

But they were pierced through their bodies by the Spear of Purity in the blink of an eye; the hard ceramite power armor was as if it were made of paper, and their bodies blessed by the Evil Gods were so vulnerable.

Zhou Yun saw five of Horus's sons—no, five Tyrant guards—chopped into pieces by himself in the blink of an eye.

The Hive Tyrant let out a roar that was almost terrified; it hurriedly waved the tentacle whip and bone giant sword in its hands.

Zhou Yun looked at the Worldbreaker warhammer and Talon of Horus attacking him, and let out a roar full of anger.

Kill!!!!

The spear shattered the Hive Tyrant's bone giant sword in the blink of an eye, and the tentacle whip was grabbed by Zhou Yun with one hand.

"Horus!!!"

Zhou Yun raised the spear in his hand high—

Slash!!!!

The spear chopped off the Hive Tyrant's arm holding the tentacle whip in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Yun looked down proudly at Horus, who had been chopped off an arm, with some confusion in his eyes.

How could Horus be so weak?

While thinking, Zhou Yun slashed down with the spear again.

The Hive Tyrant hurriedly dodged, but the arm holding the bone giant sword was also chopped off from the shoulder.

"Roar!!!"

Its remaining four limbs all touched the ground, and it ran toward the ruins without hesitation.

"Horus!!!!!"

Zhou Yun's roar was almost like a beast bathing in blood.

He raised the spear in his hand high again, looking at Horus who was fleeing in a panic.

"My brother! You are actually so cowardly?!"

"Brother! Don't run!!!"

The spear turned into a burning firelight and pierced out, stabbing diagonally into the Tyrant's body, pinning it to death in place.

"Ha!!!"

Zhou Yun let out a roar that was almost joyful, his wings vibrated, and he stepped on the Tyrant's back in the blink of an eye.

The wings behind him burned fiercely, turning into firelight and dissipating.

Horus was being stepped on by him under his feet.

No—

Zhou Yun paused slightly.

I am not Sanguinius, I am Doraemon.

No, I am Doralius. No no no, it's Dora Zhou Yun, also not right, I am Zhou Yun.

Forget it, I can't tell!

Zhou Yun abandoned the messy thoughts in his brain.

He only knew that to kill this Horus or Hive Tyrant in front of him, he had to stuff it into the Four-Dimensional Pocket.

Zhou Yun grabbed the Tyrant's body and was about to drag it toward the Four-Dimensional Pocket on his stomach.

The Hive Tyrant struggled, wanting to escape; it understood that if it were dragged into it... even the opportunity to return to the Hive Mind to revive would be gone.

The complete death of an experienced Tyrant was a huge loss to the Hive Mind.

The Hive Tyrant raised its remaining two arms and aimed the biological giant cannon at its own head.

Bang!!!!

Blood dispersed, and the Hive Tyrant's head shattered into ghastly blood clots. "... Fuck." Looking at this scene, the corner of the winged figure in the white light's mouth twitched slightly: "You forced the Hive Tyrant to commit suicide..."

"Your Black Rage symptoms... how are they more severe than my offspring? It shouldn't be like this logically..."

Zhou Yun dragged the Hive Tyrant's corpse into the Four-Dimensional Pocket and looked at the winged figure in the white light with his head tilted.

"Holy shit, Horus, how come you also grew wings!"

"Emperor, hurry up and come, there's a Horus with wings here!"

The winged figure in the white light opened his mouth wide, unable to speak for a time.

"So you tell me, did I fall into the Black Rage?"

Upper Hive, in a civilian house used by the Astra Militarum as a new stronghold.

Zhou Yun looked at the winged figure in the white light with a bewildered expression.

Now the white light surrounding his body was mixed with some strange blue, and he himself had become thin.

"Similar to the Black Rage... Ha, someone even called me a Horus with wings..."

The winged figure in the white light said with deep resentment:

"You absorbed that portion of my power, which is approximately equal to absorbing a small part of me; it is normal for hallucinations similar to the Black Rage to appear."

!. Read

"However, you don't need to worry too much; that part of my power has been exhausted, and your own Warp essence is so stable that it won't be affected by it."

Zhou Yun only vaguely remembered that he followed his instincts to mobilize that portion of power he had infiltrated into reality.

Then the scene in front of him began to become slightly blurry; the swarm seemed to have turned into Horus's sons and demons lurking in the Vengeful Spirit.

And the Hive Tyrant commanding them... turned into a four-armed Horus.

Zhou Yun couldn't remember clearly what happened next.

He took a look at the Four-Dimensional Pocket.

But it looked like he had indeed solved the Zoanthropes and the Tyrant... although he didn't catch the Tyrant alive, letting its consciousness run away.

Zhou Yun's savings had therefore reached ten million and fifty thousand, only a little over one million away from the Anywhere Door.

It was about time.

"My offspring are also about to arrive in the Underworld System." The winged figure in the white light said.

His figure was as thin as a thin veil, hanging at the corner of Zhou Yun's eye.

"Infiltrating the reality universe is always so exhausting... Sorry, I might not be able to provide you with more help next."

"When the swarm begins to engage in battle with my offspring, the battlefield over there will need my manifestation more."

"By then, I might not be able to communicate with you like this for a long time."

Zhou Yun nodded slightly, indicating he understood.

It was about time for him to leave the front line against the swarm.

His next goal was to redeem that item that could revive Sanguinius.

Zhou Yun walked slowly out of the room, heading toward the Astra Militarum defensive line outside the door.

The remaining few Cadian soldiers all had fatigue and pain on their faces; this was the sequelae after being attacked by the Zoanthropes.

Even the tough Cadian soldiers had cracks appear in their minds after suffering the psychic attacks released by the Zoanthropes.

When Zhou Yun walked out of the room, the Cadian soldiers all around had expressions of reverence or awe on their faces, and some even bowed and prayed in Zhou Yun's direction.

Others kept staring at Zhou Yun's back, as if wanting to see if there was a pair of wings there...

Even Xiang Xiang Leina, who was standing not far away, had some awe in her eyes when she looked at Zhou Yun.

"There is already a sad, thick barrier between us." Zhou Yun said with a sorrowful tone.

"... Can this be blamed on me?!" The tattoo of the Holy Word on Xiang Xiang Leina's body twitched a few times.

"You suddenly grew wings behind your back at that time, and even said you were Sanguinius himself, asking me to kowtow to you."

"Then you muttered something about Horus, brothers, Vengeful Spirit, and chopped the Hive Tyrant into a stick in a few moves, and even scared it into committing suicide on the spot... who wouldn't be terrified after seeing that?"

Speaking of this, Xiang Xiang Leina paused and couldn't help but ask:

"You... you wouldn't really be..."

"Yes, I am Sanguinius himself, hurry up and kowtow to me." Zhou Yun opened his arms and said.

"... Just received a communication; the flagship of Blood Angels Chapter Master Dante has entered the Underworld System."

Xiang Xiang Leina said with a twitching mouth:

"Do you want to say this sentence in front of him?"
