Chapter 51: 0051 Heroes of the world are truly like water flowing past

"Who I am is not important; the key is that One."

"I am just a vessel for His will."

Him? Will? Vessel?

My Warp alarm went off!

Zhou Yun looked at the girl, silent.

The girl blinked and also looked at Zhou Yun.

"Thank you for being willing to believe me, I for—um?"

Before the girl could finish her sentence, she suddenly froze in place.

Her precognition ability told her that Zhou Yun was about to punch her soon.

"Wait, don't come over! Let me finish first!"

The girl raised her hand in a panic.

But Zhou Yun didn't give her the chance.

Zhou Yun, who had suffered a loss from Tzeentch last time because his brain was too good, chose to give up thinking directly this time.

He lunged forward, and his fist wearing the Superman Gloves smashed directly toward her.

The girl hurriedly dodged through her precognition ability.

The fist smashed into the trash mountain behind the girl, and the entire trash mountain shook.

The girl's eyes widened.

Zhou Yun was curious about the girl's identity and curious about who the "that One" she spoke of was.

Her hallucination? Tzeentch? Slaanesh? Nurgle? Or some other minor god entrenched in the Warp?

Or... that dried corpse on the Wang Zuo?

But before being curious, just knock her out, control her, and take her back to interrogate her slowly.

This trash mountain was too close to the Undercity and the Hive Outskirts.

The frequency of activities of cultists, Genestealers, mutants, and raiders on the wasteland was far higher than in other areas of the Lower Hive.

The place was also chosen by the other party, and Zhou Yun felt uneasy in his heart.

"I can listen, but let me punch you first!"

"Don't be afraid, I'll just knock you out with one hit."

Zhou Yun said with a serious face.

The girl looked at Zhou Yun's fist and then at the trash mountain behind her that was constantly shaking from his punch, and hurriedly shook her head.

She wanted to run toward the trash mountains not far away.

"Xiang Xiang Leina!"

Zhou Yun shook his head and shouted to the darkness around the trash mountain.

"Eh?!" The girl was stunned in place the moment Zhou Yun shouted.

She saw the scene of the future a few seconds later, but she suspected that her precognition ability had gone wrong.

She saw:

Footsteps suddenly sounded in the darkness, and the members of the Ark Gang hidden in the darkness of the trash mountain swarmed out from every corner.

They held the Agrippina-pattern automatic rifles that Zhou Yun had brought out from the Old Eighth District and surrounded the area tightly.

Xiang Xiang Leina walked out from the crowd with her arms crossed:

"Eager Thief, you're surrounded, do you know that?"

The girl's body froze in place.

She knew that the fate of the man in front of her was extremely complex and intertwined, and she couldn't see it clearly.

All the girl could do was judge a few possibilities with higher probability from the chaotic future.

She guessed that Zhou Yun would bring people, guessed that Zhou Yun wouldn't keep the appointment, and guessed that Zhou Yun would come with Xiang Xiang Leina.

But she didn't expect that the other side would directly bring two hundred gang members to surround her.

This... this was too much.

"I... I have no malice, and I am not a believer of the Chaos Gods."

The girl's face turned pale, and she raised her hands weakly.

"Would a believer of the Chaos Gods say they are?"

Zhou Yun said with an unmoved expression.

Even if you are a saint of that dried corpse on the Wang Zuo, you have to go back with me first.

"Be good, let me punch you, I'll knock you out and take you back, and we can talk slowly."

"Can I... can I go back with you?"

Just as the girl said it, her precognition ability told her that Zhou Yun's answer was no.

"Can I find a wall to knock myself out?"

Zhou Yun twisted his wrist calmly and shook his head: "What if you're faking being knocked out?"

"Don't be afraid, my fist is very strong; one punch is guaranteed to knock you out."

The girl saw the scene of Zhou Yun knocking her out in the chaotic future.

It was indeed just a knock-out; he controlled the force and didn't break her spine.

But looking at the trash mountain that was constantly shaking under Zhou Yun's punch, the girl felt fear from the bottom of her heart.

The most uncomfortable thing was that her precognition ability told her that she couldn't escape this punch.

"Can you be lighter?"

"Rest assured." Zhou Yun said calmly and punched the girl on the back of the neck.

With a crack, the girl fainted heavily.

"Strange! It's really strange!"

Xiang Xiang Leina walked out of the room where the Eager Thief was detained with a depressed face.

She sat opposite Zhou Yun, who was flipping through the flight log.

"Eager Thief—that little girl doesn't pay attention to me at all."

Xiang Xiang Leina said with a depressed face.

She seemed to be planning to get back her private money from years ago from the Eager Thief.

"What about your psychic powers? Mind reading!"

". She can resist psychic mind reading." Xiang Xiang Leina said with a bitter face.

Her own invincible Voice of Bewitchment and psychic mind reading had actually failed again and again.

"That little girl just keeps repeating that she wants to talk to you."

Xiang Xiang Leina rubbed her temples and pointed to the door:

"You want to try?"

". I'll go see what she wants to say." Zhou Yun nodded slightly, pushed the door, and walked into the room where the Eager Thief was detained.

The girl, who looked like she had somewhat dry hair and a plainly good-looking face, was tied up with restraints in the corner of the room.

She looked a bit weak, but she didn't seem to be overreacting to the current situation.

The girl raised her deer-like eyes and blinked at Zhou Yun.

"What's your name?"

Zhou Yun looked at the girl and asked.

". My name is not important."

The girl shook her head and said as before:

"What's important is that One..."

"Before understanding that One you speak of, I'm more curious about who you are." Zhou Yun interrupted the girl.

". Jeanne, He gave me this name."

The girl lowered her head and said in a low voice.

"Jeanne?"

Zhou Yun's eyes were slightly strange.

Jeanne, wasn't that Joan of Arc, who was roasted in the great fire of Orleans in Terra's history?

Which wicked person gave her the name Jeanne and even let her call herself Orleans Fried Wings?

Too hellish, too wicked...

"So, Jeanne, who is that One you speak of?"

"And what does He want to do?"

Zhou Yun calmed his heart and stared at the girl who called herself Jeanne and asked.

"All He wants is salvation, to save everyone."

Jeanne lowered her head and said:

"He gave me the ability of precognition, allowing me to see the future."

"I need to find someone to accompany me to complete the mission He gave me."

"I'm sorry for entering your home, but I need an item of your clothing to help me enhance the prophecy about you and determine if you are the person I'm looking for."

Jeanne said in a low voice:

"You are; you can help me, and it is also like this in the future He let me see."

"He is... He is the Emperor."

Listening to Jeanne's words,

Zhou Yun actually didn't feel surprised at all.

He even sighed silently in his heart that today's Ashford was still so full of talent.
