In Warhammer, My System is Minecraft-Chapter 160: Zeke and the Silent King’s First Round of Negotiations
Simut looked at Zeke in front of him. He had noted the tone of the Silent King's servant: capture this human.
Simut looked at Zeke, who was lounging lazily behind Alpha Primus. Every four attacks of his could dismantle a Lychguard.
So far, this human hadn't used any other moves. He had to force out more of his abilities to please the Silent King.
Simut knew he couldn't drag this out any longer. With a furious roar, green electrical arcs erupted all over his body.
"I am Overlord Simut, Storm-Fiend Commander of the Winter Stars, Sovereign Ruler of Antotkis and Akapri! For a lesser creature to delusionally attempt to stop me—laughable!"
Simut stomped the ground heavily. Drawing energy from his miniature armor reactor, a violent lightning storm swept the surroundings, forcing Alpha Primus to stagger backward under the impact.
Simut blurred into a swift shadow, closing in right in front of Alpha Primus.
Powering his right arm to the maximum, Simut sent Alpha Primus flying into the air with a single punch. The fully charged beam cannon in his hand gathered its firepower and pierced right through Alpha Primus.
Alpha Primus twisted his body in mid-air, barely managing to shift the point of impact to his shoulder.
Ceramite power armor was like thin paper before the beam. Blood flowed down his armor as he crashed heavily onto the ground.
"If only I wasn't blocked from using my psychic powers..." Alpha Primus's words were slurred; he could feel his life slipping away from his body.
"Zeke!" He tried to shout, but it only came out as a gasp. "Zeke, are you alright?!"
Panic gripped Alpha Primus. Protecting Zeke was the mission Archmagos Cawl had given him. Even though he resented Cawl, his pride demanded he do the job well.
Alpha Primus struggled to raise his head, only to see Zeke handing him a bottle of potion.
"This can isolate the effects of the Pariah Nexus on you. Take it."
"Oh, right." Zeke pulled out another Enchanted Golden Apple. "Hurry up and eat this, don't die on me."
Don't die on me. Alpha Primus listened to these words blankly, right up until the potion and the Golden Apple were shoved into his hands.
Zeke turned his head back around, leaving Alpha Primus with a towering, heroic silhouette.
Don't die on me, otherwise how am I, Zeke, supposed to comfortably slack off?
"Human, what is your name?" Overlord Simut remembered the task he was given. Holding his nose to suppress his disgust, he began to ask for Zeke's information.
"My name? A small fry like you doesn't deserve my answer. Call your Silent King over."
Overlord Simut snorted coldly. Behind him, Alpha Primus finished eating the Enchanted Golden Apple and downed the Bottled Sanity in one gulp.
Psychic power surged out. The light of the Warp shrouded Alpha Primus from head to toe, his aura completely different from before.
"You're powered up, get in there!" Zeke said from behind, pointing at Overlord Simut.
The true strength of Alpha Primus lay in his psychic powers; he was actually a mage. Once he started casting skills, you would know just how terrifying he was.
Feeling the psychic energy surging from his body, Alpha Primus looked at Overlord Simut, then provocatively sheathed his power sword. He didn't need it anymore.
Having completely unleashed his psychic power, dazzling light poured from Alpha Primus's eyes, and a beam of pure psychic energy shot from his palm.
The beam struck Simut. Accompanied by a thunderclap, Simut was sent flying over a hundred meters away.
Useless Simut! I told you to test that human, what the hell are you doing?!
Hapthatra was relentlessly chewing him out inside Overlord Simut's mind.
Use phase teleportation to approach that human! Your target is not this Space Marine!
Simut smiled bitterly. He wanted to use phase teleportation too, but he couldn't!
Every time Simut tried to use phase teleportation, Zeke would pull out the Tangleberrie. It was super effective.
Utilizing his psychic perception, Alpha Primus bobbed and weaved through Simut's attacks, easily evading all of Simut's strikes, be they from Gauss weapons or hyperphase blades.
Psychic energy melted Simut's spinal nodes. Energy short-circuited, and Simut lost control of his lower body, falling to his knees with a heavy thud.
Save me... save me, my cousin...
Although Necrons were extremely hard to kill, who knew if this human before him had some special method to block the resurrection protocols?
Simut began to cry for help. The only response he got was dead silence, followed by a voice: 'That is enough.'
Hapthatra had gathered enough information, and the Silent King had also analyzed many things through the footage.
It was just a pity that this useless Simut hadn't even managed to directly engage the human, and the human hadn't used his true strength at all.
Even so, just from what Hapthatra could see, there was a flower capable of cracking Necron phase teleportation, and a potion that isolated the effects of the Pariah Nexus.
Combined with the ability to breed Necrons, Zeke left a profound impression in the Silent King's mind—an impression that could not be parsed by any existing logic model.
Perhaps it is a power of the Warp, the Silent King could only guess.
The Warp was a domain the Necrons had never stepped into; their race did not possess the ability to utilize it.
A holographic projection materialized in front of Simut.
It was much like the one seen at Sanguinius's banquet—still the Silent King and his two Phaerons.
Hapthatra spoke, "My Lord Szarekh wishes to summon you. This is the supreme glory of your human race."
Zeke just looked at the projection. "I don't want to talk to you. Switch to someone else."
"You..." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
Hapthatra complied with the Silent King's directive, stepping back and letting the other Phaeron handle the negotiations.
This Phaeron's tone was much milder. "Human named Zeke, my Lord Szarekh wishes to meet with you to discuss certain matters."
"How do I know this isn't a trap?" Zeke asked. "Your place is swarming with Necrons. What if I go there and you tie me up?"
We tie you up?
The Phaeron looked at Overlord Simut kneeling beside Zeke, then looked back at this completely fearless human.
"That is absolutely impossible."
"Can you prove it?"
"My Lord, the Silent King, never lies."
"I don't believe you."
The conversation hit a dead end again. The Phaeron spoke up once more, asking: "Then what do you want?"
"If you ask me, rather than me going to your side, why doesn't this Silent King of yours take a trip over to mine? I'll wait for you right here on this planet, how about that?"
"Impossible!" The two Phaerons said in unison. The Silent King would not condescend to anyone.
"Really now?" Zeke revealed a smile.
