Chapter 161 - Chapter 157: The Out-of-Bound Entity - The Non-Existent Steel

Fang Yuan didn't need the system to tell him. His Null-Logic vibrated in a specific, jagged frequency that only occurred when encountering something from "Outside".

​"This isn't Rank 6 technology of this universe," Yuan whispered, his indigo eyes reflecting the silver silk of the armor. "The Council of Order thinks they suppressed a rebel weapon. They are fools. This thing... it doesn't obey the Speed of Light or the Laws of Causality. It was dropped here from a Higher Plane—perhaps from the Eternal Void itself."

​The Realization:

​The Origin: The armor, the "Aegis of the Void-Slayer," was a "Foreign Object." In the language of the Multiverse, it was a glitch. It wasn't built; it was written into the world using a code that predates the creation of the current Council.

​The Logic: While Rank 6 weapons of this universe manipulate reality, this armor ignores reality. It doesn't block a sword; it makes the concept of "the sword hitting the body" logically impossible.

​The Connection: Han didn't "build" this. Han was simply the only person in this galaxy whose brain was broken enough to "hear" the armor's instructions.

​"You were waiting for someone who could speak your language," Yuan said to the suit. "Han was a translator. I am the Speaker."

​Yuan didn't try to wear it. His Rank 1 body would vaporize instantly if he touched the "Core" of a multi-dimensional glitch. Instead, he did something far more sinister. He used the Broken Spindle of Fate to begin "weaving" the armor's silver threads directly into his nervous system.

​He wasn't going to wear the armor. He was going to become it.
