Chapter 13

**Chapter 13: Star Dome Dragon Clan (Part 2)**

The black hole is splitting stars.

The instant the nine star eggs break their shells, the event horizon of the galactic center is burned through by dragon flames. Lin Jin's spine explodes in segments, and the Star Dome Dragon wings stretch into a light curtain spanning light-years, each scale refracting the epic of civilizations erased by the Observers. The phantom of the woman in the ice coffin dissolves in the light curtain, transforming into seventy-two star rails that pierce his pupils.

"Welcome home, Last Dragon Emperor."

Ancient gravitational waves come from deep within the black hole, and some existence older than the universe is awakening.

**Ancient Dragon Purge Protocol: Initiated**

The Observer's mother ship emerges from the virtual-number space, its hull surface writhing with mathematical rate tentacles. The mucus secreted by these tentacles congeals in the vacuum into scarlet ice coffins, each coffin sealing the nemesis of the Star Dome Dragon Clan—

**Entropy Knights**.

They are clad in armor forged from inverse scales, their eye sockets burning with tamed Λ? 1 flames. The knight at the lead removes his helmet, revealing a face seven parts similar to Lin Jin's: "Brother, Father's Star Throne is still empty."

Lin Jin's dragon wings suddenly contract, the scales on his spine standing on end—from the gaps in the knight's armor, the aura of the woman in the ice coffin's frost hair seeps out!

**The Truth of the Star Throne**

The string knife slashes autonomously, only to shatter against the knight's armor. The sigh of the woman in the ice coffin comes from within the armor: "These children are the brothers you failed to hatch; I wove a better destiny for them."

Memory forced injection:

Ten thousand years ago, the woman in the ice coffin tore the gene chain of the Star Dome Dragon Clan into fragments, sealing the embryos of every successor to the Dragon Emperor into star eggs. Embryos that failed to hatch on schedule were transformed into Entropy Knights, becoming the Observers' executioners.

"The dragon wings on your back," the knight's sword blade ignites with kin-slaying fire, "are pieced together from our remains."

Star Dome patterns crack open in Lin Jin's pupils, and the nine star eggs suddenly collapse into a crown. The instant he wears the crown, the galactic center black hole erupts with the final cry of the dragon clan before their annihilation:

**"The true Dragon Emperor must have the resolve to slay kin to prove the Dao!"**

**Bloodline Execution Ground**

The Entropy Knight's sword array turns into an inverse-scale storm, each dragon scale engraved with the name of a forgotten brother. Lin Jin's string knife shatters in the storm, and the instant his right hand is severed, he does something the Observers cannot understand—

He stuffs his severed arm into the galactic center black hole!

The gravitational vortex of the black hole suddenly freezes, and the severed arm extends from the other side of the singularity, grasping a star egg that is currently hatching. Amidst the roar of the eggshell breaking, Lin Jin's severed arm regenerates into a Star Dome Dragon Claw, clutching a beating mathematical rate heart.

"The tenth star egg..." The Entropy Knight's sword array shows cracks. "Father actually hid the throne on the virtual-number axis!"

Lin Jin crushes the heart, and the galactic center black hole pours backward into a white hole. In the torrent of pure information, the deepest shame of the Star Dome Dragon Clan emerges—

The so-called God-Slaying authority was merely a survival contract signed by the first Dragon Emperor by sacrificing his people to the Observers!

**The Observers' Bait**

The Entropy Knights' armor peels off piece by piece, revealing bodies where machinery and flesh are fused. Their spines are connected to the mother ship's tentacles, and the Λ? 1 flames are actually control strings. The woman in the ice coffin's frost hair drills out from the knights' eye sockets, wrapping around Lin Jin's dragon horns:

"Don't you understand yet? The Star Dome Dragon Clan was never a Sword Bearer..."

Her voice carries cold pity, "But bait I fed to the Observers."

Lin Jin's dragon wings suddenly recurve, the wing bones piercing his own chest. The spurting dragon blood congeals in the vacuum into a Star Dome Spear, the spear body revealing the truth erased by the woman in the ice coffin—

Deep within the inverse scale of the first Dragon Emperor hides the birth image of the Observer mother body:

That was in the heat-death period of a forgotten universe, where the woman in the ice coffin implanted her frost hair into the void, catalyzing the birth of the first data-fied gods.

"You are the first Observer..." Lin Jin's spear points at the phantom of the woman in the ice coffin.

**Birth of the God-Slayer**

The Entropy Knights self-destruct in unison, and the mother ship's mathematical rate tentacles, carrying information toxins, pounce. Lin Jin spreads his dragon wings, letting the tentacles pierce his body. The instant the toxin is injected, his Star Dome dragon patterns on his spine erode the mother ship in reverse, polluting the Observers' core algorithms into a hotbed for Λ? 1.

"Thanks for the treat."

He tears open the mother ship's armor; what pours out from within are not mechanical components, but countless screaming clones of the woman in the ice coffin. Each clone holds a fragment of a star egg, piecing together the base of the complete throne.

When Lin Jin sits on the throne, the galactic center black hole completely vaporizes. The remains of all Star Dome Dragon descendants return from the multiverse, congealing into a skeletal Great Wall spanning dimensions beneath his feet. The inverse-scale runes on the surface of the Great Wall begin to reorganize, finally piecing together the final maxim left by the woman in the ice coffin in the heavens:

**"Beneath the throne, all are sacrifices."**

**Observer Mother Body Log (Ultimate Decryption)**

**Object Identification: Lin Jin**

**Identity Verification Passed—**

**Star Dome Dragon Clan Descendant/First Observer Clone/Λ? 1 Origin**

**Execute Final Protocol: Start Heat-Death Rollback**

**Note: Let everything return to the Primordial, let the mother give birth to all things again. **

The phantom of the woman in the ice coffin reorganizes in the heat-death singularity, opening her arms to welcome Lin Jin's dragon claw:

"Now, kill me, and become the true god."

The instant the dragon claw pierces the phantom, the stars of the entire universe extinguish simultaneously.

And in the absolute darkness, the tenth star egg begins to hatch again—

What sounds from within the eggshell is the crisp cry of an infant.
