Chapter 632: Zhou Yun: Bathing, Do Not Disturb

~7 min read 1,334 words

The Silent King thrust the long spear in his hand toward the Titanic robot. The slender crystal pierced into the structure beneath reality, bypassing the Titanic robot directly and stabbing at the things in the cause of all things that represented Zhou Yun...

Massive amounts of energy were constantly consumed, and the Burning One let out a miserable wail. The Silent King carved a sharp straight line, cutting directly through those things he could not understand but which concerned everything about Zhou Yun, tearing them ruthlessly into two halves——————

But at this very moment, the Silent King noticed something strange.

Beneath reality, at the fundamental source of all things' existence, above those words and those settings, everything was indifferent black and white. Color only existed in the things they described; it could not describe the things that defined existence.

But... but those words symbolizing Zhou Yun, that line of text, those things,

were a bloody, fresh red, as if they had been bathed in fresh blood...

And when the Silent King's long spear swept across that line of text, attempting to cut Zhou Yun apart from the foundation,

absolutely nothing happened??

It was as if Zhou Yun had been marked at the foundation of the world as an existence that could not die and could not be divided.

The Silent King could not understand it at all.

【Item Name: Siegfried Bath Liquid】

【Origin: 22nd Century Earth — Future Department Store】

【Production Date: 271. M3】

【Function: An item modeled after the legend of the legendary hero Siegfried bathing in dragon blood and becoming immortal. After bathing in the blood-like bath liquid in the bottle, one will gain an immortal body for thirty minutes, with only one small leaf-shaped fatal spot on the back.】

Zhou Yun's skin was slightly flushed, as if it had been soaked through with blood color. This item from the 22nd century could grant a person a near-absolute immortal body.

Even if the long spear in the Silent King's hand was enough to slay a C'tan, he would still have to obediently go behind Zhou Yun and pierce the leaf-shaped fatal spot on his back to harm Zhou Yun. Any attack launched in any other form would be unable to harm Zhou Yun within this half-hour.

As for after half an hour...

"Let me stretch my legs!"

Zhou Yun smiled slightly, grabbing the Titanic robot's control stick with both hands, and stretched his legs in the bathtub inside the Titanic robot's cockpit. The bathtub was filled with bubbling, fresh red liquid, and over a dozen bottles of Siegfried Bath Liquid were placed on the edge of the tub.

Just when the Silent King was bewildered and confused, the blade-like Titanic Flash had already pierced in front of him, and at the same time, the attacks of Sanguinius and Guilliman arrived simultaneously.

The Titanic Flash, the Spear of Bi Gong, and the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Sword were all just a hair's breadth away from touching the Silent King.

But it was just that hair's breadth, an imperceptible little bit.

No matter if it was the Titanic Flash, the Spear of Bi Gong, or the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Sword, they continued to stab toward the Silent King, but no matter how they advanced, they were always just a hair's breadth away.

Beneath the C'tan true-skin cloak of the Silent King's Command Throne, a series of fluorescent green metal lines like circuits were shining brightly.

This was a Necron artifact Szarekh had preserved, the "Space-Time Discontinuity Eliminator." Its effect was to eliminate the discontinuity of the world, causing the space-time around the Silent King to lose its minimum spatial dimension.

Even humans, who in the Silent King's view lacked sufficient wisdom, had realized the paradox of continuous space-time at the dawn of their civilization.

If space-time were continuous space-time that could be infinitely divided,

then a rope taken by half every day would never be exhausted.

A lamp flashes once a minute, then once every half minute, then every fifteen seconds... then the lamp would flash countless times within two minutes.

A person walks one thousand meters; the first time they walk five hundred meters, the second time two hundred fifty meters, the third time one hundred twenty-five meters... repeating this, they would never reach the target.

The reason this situation does not occur in reality is because space-time in reality is not continuous; it has a minimum distance.

And the Necron artifact in the Silent King's hand erased the continuity of the space-time around him, causing the Titanic Flash, the Spear of Bi Gong, and the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Sword to fall into the dichotomy paradox, forever unable to truly touch the Silent King.

The C'tan Burning One behind the Silent King let out a miserable wail. Such a powerful Necron artifact naturally required massive energy; even the inextinguishable bright flames on the Burning One thinned by a layer in an instant.

This was a feat of Necron dimensional and space-time technology, containing the Necrons' understanding of dimensions, space-time, and infinity. No civilization in the entire universe could surpass the Necrons, unless a complete C'tan were resurrected.

But how could that be possible? All C'tan except the Outsider had been shattered, and the Outsider had become a complete autist, floating on the outskirts of the galaxy, unable to perceive the outside world and unable to be influenced by the outside world.

The Silent King was currently in a near-impenetrable defense.

He sneered, the long spear in his hand changing direction, stabbing toward Roboute Guilliman beside him.

Although the energy of this long spear had been heavily consumed just now to divide Zhou Yun's existence, and it could not launch an attack of that intensity for fifteen minutes, lower-power attacks could still be used.

Almost instantly, the Fate Armor on Guilliman inexplicably rusted, opening a hole and exposing Guilliman's skin, while at the same time, Guilliman's flesh began to rot rapidly.

The Silent King's shot just now had increased the entropy value on Guilliman, causing Guilliman's body to begin to rapidly become disordered, collapse, and gallop toward the direction of chaos.

Guilliman looked at the Silent King calmly, his originally light-colored eyes instantly burning with a continuously burning, scorching gold, and his rotting body was simultaneously wrapped in golden flames, recovering as before in an instant.

Everything except him faded in an instant; all things became slow, stagnant, and gray.

The Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Sword changed direction, stabbing fiercely toward the Burning One C'tan shard behind the Silent King.

No matter how the Silent King manipulated his Necron artifacts, those artifacts could not be used without relying on energy, and the Burning One was the Silent King's energy.

Just at this moment, a thin curtain woven of light erupted from the Silent King's body. This curtain expelled the grayness and stagnation around him, instantly shrouding himself and the Burning One C'tan shard, pushing Guilliman and Sanguinius backward.

When the massive Warp energy on the two Primarchs hit that thin curtain, it was like a stone falling into water; although it could stir up splashes, it could not smash through the water's surface no matter what.

"Webway?" Guilliman, whose body was burning with golden flames, moved his lips slightly, seeing what the thin curtain shrouding the Silent King was.

The material of that thin curtain was the same as the material the Old Ones used to manufacture the Webway, possessing extremely strong Warp-insulating properties, even better than the Necrons' Blackstone. Moreover, this Webway curtain had just been generated, making it more solid than those Webways in the Webway that had been ravaged by time and had long since exceeded the service life planned by the Old Ones.

Even excluding its effect of resisting Warp energy, the physical strength of this thin curtain was terrifyingly high.

In a short time, even Guilliman and Sanguinius could not tear this thin curtain with psychic power or physical force. ===== CHAPTER 633 =====
