Chapter 65 Time’s Tomb
“Time’s Tomb…”
This scene was enough to stun all the girls into a stupor.
Su Ling, in her carelessness, even dropped the water cup in her hand onto the table.
Elus also sighed and said solemnly:
“That’s right, Time’s Tomb… I heard about its existence from Senior Tsukimi Shimo… It’s a more advanced Ultimate Weapon than the Matter Homogenizer among the Supreme civilizations. It can reverse time and even invert the Entropy Value of the entire universe.”
“!”
“In other words, no matter how powerful you are. That kind of power is something we’ve forged through time… As long as time is reversed, Time’s Tomb can negate all the achievements we’ve gained through time.”
“Can such a thing be done?”
…
Hearing Elus’s explanation, Lonis felt a chill run down her spine.
Living beings evolved from primitive single-celled organisms into the current vast family over countless years—whether humans or beasts, all actually have a common ancestor.
If the power of Time’s Tomb could turn back time, wouldn’t everyone also revert to some primitive form?
…
“Yes, that’s right. Therefore, in the face of Time’s Tomb, all power is insignificant, and all defenses are useless. Only the lifespan since our birth is the only way to resist it.”
“Wuuu…”
“And Castor happens to be precisely suppressed by Time’s Tomb. Although he has a lifespan of a thousand years, it is still too short compared to the vast universe.”
…
…
As they spoke, Castor was completely affected by the power of Time’s Tomb and had turned back into a baby.
The surrounding power was completely unable to sustain itself, and not even a single thorn could be pierced… If this continued, would Castor’s existence disappear?
As if he had never been born.
Gradually tracing back, becoming a fertilized egg, becoming two separated cells, becoming the proteins that make up cells, becoming…
…
Fortunately, Tsukimi Shimo intervened at this moment.
“All teams, activate emergency plan to rescue Mr. Castor.”
“Received!”
…
Lonis looked to the other side and saw Tsukimi Shimo standing on the platform, holding a silver umbrella.
What was she doing? Was she using the silver umbrella for defense?
Just as Lonis was about to get up and contribute her own strength, she saw Tsukimi Shimo raise the silver umbrella and pull the “trigger” towards the Time’s Tomb that spanned the sky.
…
“Moon’s power that has condensed time, please protect our citizens and open the path to the future for everyone!”
…
The girl’s silver hair fluttered without wind, and with that light yet firm voice, a sharp radiance erupted from the tip of Tsukimi Shimo’s umbrella.
Although the beam was not as magnificent as a planet-destroying cannon, it was incomparably solid. It pierced through the galaxy and even pierced through several thorns from Time’s Tomb in an instant—and taking this opportunity, a girl rushed out from the base.
…
“Damn it, I knew they’d make me do these dangerous things!”
…
The girl had deep purple beautiful hair, but was only wearing a thin swimset. According to reason, such a girl could not survive in the universe, but she not only leaped up.
Even within the range of Time’s Tomb’s temporal thorns, she was not affected.
…
“That’s…”
“It’s Zijing!”
…
If it were an ordinary life form, it might have been reversed by Time’s Tomb long ago—but that temporal reversal power seemed to have no effect on mechanical bodies.
Because of this, Zijing narrowly grabbed Castor, who had turned into a baby, and then retreated.
However, the thorns of time that spanned the surroundings of Time’s Tomb naturally would not let her escape unscathed. Innumerable thorns slashed, attempting to firmly bind Zijing within.
But, at this very moment…
“Second Fleet, open fire! Release laser cannons!”
“Ground defense forces, fire with full power.”
…
Traditional weapons from humanity, let alone targeting Time’s Tomb, had very little effect even on the thorns, causing almost no damage.
But they couldn’t stop the sheer number of cannons!
There were at least hundreds of thousands of defense forces stationed on the Moon. Every inch of land on the dark side of the moon was basically equipped with combat sub-fortresses.
And often, quantity also leads to qualitative change.
Therefore, the thorns of time were also affected to some extent. With the cover of the troops, Zijing finally rescued Castor and successfully returned to the inside of the base.
…
…
—————–
…
…
A quarter of an hour later,
In the observation room, Lonis and her companions saw Tsukimi Shimo and Zijing, who had just returned.
However, the condition of these two seniors from the past could not be described as good.
Tsukimi Shimo looked as if she was completely exhausted, her entire body covered in sweat—although this aura was fragrant, Lonis feared that Tsukimi Shimo would collapse from exhaustion at any moment.
Although Zijing, with her puppet body, ignored the reverse ability of Time’s Tomb, Lonis keenly noticed that her height seemed to have shrunk by a few centimeters compared to before.
…
However, this was considered only a minor injury.
The condition of both of them could not compare to Castor’s shocking situation.
Because in Lonis’s impression, Castor had always been very mysterious, giving off an image of being calm and crazy, but at this moment, he had become a “sarcoma.”
His hands and legs had not grown, and like some alien creature, he was only faintly squirming.
…
“T-this is Mr. Castor?”
Su Ling was stunned and could hardly believe the scene.
Eight-tailed Fox also twitched her tail and said somewhat gloatingly, “Heh heh, serves him right! I didn’t expect Castor to have such a day. You stole my research institute, how about it? Got your comeuppance!”
“Although it’s rare to reach a consensus with Eight-tailed Fox… but that thing called Time’s Tomb is too terrifying, isn’t it? How can such a terrifying thing be defeated?”
Candelle also clenched her fists with lingering fear.
She was a loli herself, and only in her teens. If she were affected by the power of Time’s Tomb, let alone resisting, she might disappear without a trace in an instant.
…
…
Faced with this situation, Elus could only sigh and walk towards Tsukimi Shimo:
“Senior, is it enough? For the next battle, let me and Lonis take over?”
“Elus…”
“We are also protected by the power of Rainbow Abyss, and Lonis is a true hero who has grasped the ultimate secret of time. Although Senior Isumi is gone, if we take action, our winning rate will not be less than 50%.”
…
Lonis didn’t know how Elus determined the 50% win rate, but as long as his wife was confident, she was also confident.
However, Tsukimi Shimo just shook her head slightly: “No, not at least for now.”
“Uh?”
“Mr. Castor’s sacrifice was not without value. Under his attack, the interior of Time’s Tomb also became chaotic, and it will take at least another day for Time’s Tomb to advance further.”
“!”
“This is the time Castor bought for us, don’t fail his efforts. Within this day, let’s find a more effective way to deal with it.”
