Chapter 416: The Antimatter Source is Obtained and a Glimpse of the Black Light
What is the Misty Star Region?
As the name implies, it is a whole star region filled with a large amount of special star sea fog energy. This fog energy may be a legacy of the multiverse era, or it may be an accidental product after the formation of the Broken Star Sea.
However, one thing is certain, that is, this fog energy must have an extremely strong interference magnetic field, making it difficult for creatures or starships that enter it to play the effect of technological products such as radar, and it is very easy to get lost.
With his eyes flickering, Song Chi did not directly enter this misty star region.
It’s not that he is worried that the information given by Kendall Eagle is wrong. Before, through the [Oath Covenant] component, he has confirmed that everything the other party said is true.
He hesitated whether to leave a space anchor point in the original place. If he leaves it, he must cancel the anchor point set in the Tianxu Cangqiong.
The advantage is that it can ensure that after he gets lost, he can always return to the starting point through the market to explore again without returning to the Dragon Ridge Continent.
Disadvantages? There is no space anchor point in the Tianxu Cangqiong. Once it rushes into the foggy star area, it will be difficult to enter and exit the market at will. After all, if the warships staying in the outside world deviate slightly, he, the captain, may fall into the endless fog directly after leaving the market.
As for leaving space beacons with space beacon components?
This is impossible.
Based on the special rules of Xinhuo human civilization, only space beacons located far away from the Xinhuo human river community can be activated. All space beacons set in the territory of Xinhuo human civilization, or even in a river community around the Xinhuo human river community, cannot be activated.
The reason for this rule is that in the early days of Xinhuo human civilization, some crises that are unwilling to be mentioned occurred.
Some Xinhuo captains who were left in alien star fields were enslaved by alien civilizations, and then returned through the space beacons that were first left in the territory of Xinhuo human civilization. Finally, after a long period of planning, they opened an ultra-long-distance space transmission channel for an advanced alien civilization, which eventually led to a large-scale invasion of alien civilizations.
In that civilization invasion, the four empires of Xinhuo Humanity paid a heavy price and won the victory with a slight advantage. That is, at that time, Xinhuo Human Civilization had not yet come into contact with and collided with the Eight-armed Snake Demon Civilization. Otherwise, it would be hard to say whether Xinhuo Human Civilization could be passed down to this day under internal and external troubles.
It was also the painful price of that time that made the four Xinhuo Human Empires learn from their mistakes and finally united to create this rule.
After this rule, no such incidents have occurred in the subsequent 200,000 years of Xinhuo Human Civilization.
In any case, the Xinhuo Captain, who has the Xinhuo Seed to protect his mind, has the most powerful mind in the entire Broken Star Sea. Even if he really encounters those Star Sea aliens who are good at enslavement, bewitching, illusions, etc. in the exploration of foreign lands, it is not possible to completely enslave a Xinhuo Captain in just 24 hours.
Once it exceeds 24 hours, the return time of the Xinhuo warship will be missed. Even if they succeed in enslaving the Xinhuo captain, they can no longer return to the territory of Xinhuo human civilization from billions of light years away to plan anything.
…
"Forget it, I don't know how long I will stay in this fog this time. I must enter the market for subsequent market transactions. If I really get lost, I can just return to the Dragon Ridge Continent first. The straight-line distance between the Dragon Ridge Continent and this chaotic star field is no more than 10,000 light years, so it doesn't take long..."
Muttering, Song Chi's eyes turned firm, and then the warship engine roared, pushing the Tianxu Cangqiong into the fog ahead.
Zizizizi!
As soon as he rushed into the fog, a strange sound of zizizi came from the side patrol radar. Looking sideways, Song Chi frowned.
It can be seen that the [Peering Eye], which originally had an amazing detection range, now displays a radar map with a diameter of only tens of millions of kilometers. This distance seems not small, but this is in the sea of stars. Compared with the Hun Tian Star Region with a diameter of hundreds of light years, the distance of tens of millions of kilometers is really insignificant.
Fortunately, the "Transition Star Map Collector" feature of the [Aurora Transition Device] component has not failed. Now it has been strengthened to the fifth level. The star map range that this feature can generate is 240 times the detection range of the patrol radar, that is, the diameter can reach 2.4 billion kilometers and the radius can reach 1.2 billion kilometers.
Compared with the Hun Tian Star Region, this detection radius is insignificant, which is equivalent to two light points, but it is still good overall, so that the Tianxu Cangqiong will not be like a headless fly running around.
In addition, another warning sounded inside the battleship soon.
[Note that the corrosive energy from the outside world continues to erode the energy shield, and the current energy shield value has decreased by 1%. 】
Song Chi didn't care about this. When the warning sounded, the Tianxu Cangqiong had been in the fog for several seconds. In other words, it would take 5 to 6 seconds to erode 1% of the shield value of the Five Elements Zhoutian Energy Shield, which did not exceed the repair speed of the "neutron star core pulse" characteristic.
The warship swept into the depths of the fog and issued instructions to the Qiongtian Intelligent Brain to notify it immediately once it found high-intensity energy fluctuations.
Then, he left a "void body" clone on the warship, and then entered the Zhutian Market.
This foggy star area is very large, and it is unknown when the trace of the small black hole can be found. Song Chi naturally will not wait here.
After breaking through the fourth level, the progress of the Daoyin technique has become increasingly slow, and he must make use of all his time.
He is now preparing to use the last Green Blood Peach.
Over the past few decades, the number of Green Blood Peach in his hand has exceeded 100, and he has given a lot of them to his parents and other third-level elders in the vein.
However, although there are many Green Blood Peach, he can only use one more now, and then this thing will no longer have any effect on him, which is a great pity.
In the lv47 full attribute training room, as soon as the Green Blood Peach entered his mouth, Song Chi drank another top-level body-building potion.
Then he took the standard Daoyin technique training posture and began this rapid training.
Nearly a month later, when he walked out of the full attribute training room again, Song Chi's Daoyin technique had broken through from lv40 to lv41.
But to be honest, his successful breakthrough this time still involved a certain amount of luck.
In fact, after the Guidance Technique was promoted to the fourth level, the Green Blood Peach, which matured only nine thousand years ago, had no effect on him. It was just that he was lucky, and he had accumulated more than ten years of experience before, so he was lucky enough to break through lv41.
This time he just barely broke through, and he still had to go through a long period of hard training to reach the peak of lv41, let alone lv42, but Song Chi was still very happy.
Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows, and through the ethereal body left in the outside world, he got the information from the outside world for the first time.
"The traces of giant creatures were detected. There are actually star beasts in this foggy star area?"
When he returned to the battleship, Song Chi looked at the radar map for the first time.
As the ethereal body had seen before, the radar map did show a creature with a body length of more than 200,000 meters and a very fast moving speed.
Seeing this, there was no need for Song Chi to remind him, the Sky Intelligence Brain had already activated the "Mirage" feature in advance.
With a body length of 200,000 meters, if nothing unexpected happens, it must be a sixth-level star beast. Star beasts of this level will naturally go as far as they can.
As the Tianxu Cangqiong was getting farther and farther away from the other party, Song Chi said to the Qiongtian Intelligent Brain:
"Intelligent Brain, what kind of creature can you analyze?"
[Accepting instructions, comparing databases...]
[It is known that the body length is more than 200,000 meters, living under the mist energy, and extremely fast...]
[Speculation 1: Star beast "Mist Tooth Shark", probability 83.5%]
[Speculation 2: Star beast "Mist Fox", probability 12.5%]
[Speculation 3: Others, probability 4%]
"Mist Tooth Shark..."
Hearing the speculation given by the Qiongtian Intelligent Brain, Song Chi's heart was slightly chilled.
Mist Tooth Shark, this star beast has a great reputation. It is extremely warlike and good at scent tracking. Even if it is separated by several light years, it can capture other abnormal smells in its territory and quickly track them.
That is to say, the Tianxu Cangqiong itself has an energy shield and a ship armor barrier, and it does not emit any strange aura. Otherwise, at that distance just now, the other party would have discovered the existence of the Tianxu Cangqiong a long time ago.
Thinking of this, Song Chi was about to enter the market again, but the Qiongtian Intelligent Brain suddenly sent a prompt again.
[Attention, a large circular empty belt was found on the jump star map, which is suspected to be caused by the black hole swallowing. ]
Song Chi paused, and his eyes quickly turned to the new star map displayed by the [Aurora Jump Device].
On this star map, there is indeed a circle of circular corners of the star sea empty belt in the corner. Although the complete appearance of the empty belt has not been officially seen, from the circular corners shown on the star map, it is indeed a feature of a circular empty belt.
Based on this point, Song Chi controlled the battleship to jump two light points in the specified direction, and then a more vast circular empty belt corner section appeared on the star map.
At this point, Song Chi was completely sure that there was indeed a circular hollow belt ahead, and the deepest part of this circular hollow belt was most likely where the small black hole was.
Having guessed this, he could not wait to control the Tianxu Cangqiong to rush into the hollow belt ahead.
There was no fog energy in this hollow belt. After the warship entered, the corrosion effect of the Five Elements Zhoutian Energy Shield was completely dissipated.
This change made Song Chi more certain of his guess.
There was no reason for such a special area to appear in a star field covered by fog energy.
Unless the fog energy entering this area was swallowed by the small black hole.
To prove this point, he continued to control the warship to move towards the inner circle of the hollow belt.
At the beginning, there were not many changes, but as the warship gradually went deeper, the surrounding swallowing energy continued to increase. On the tenth day of the advance, the shield value of the Five Elements Zhoutian Energy Shield began to decrease continuously. Fortunately, it was still within the repair speed of the "neutron star core pulse" characteristic.
On the fifteenth day, after several jumps, the Tianxu Cangqiong had entered the inner circle of the black hole radiation zone. On this day, the terrifying devouring energy from the outside world finally reached a relatively balanced state with the "neutron star core pulse" characteristics.
In other words, if Song Chi continued to let the Tianxu Cangqiong move forward, this balance would be broken, and the energy shield of the warship would gradually weaken until it was completely overloaded.
When the energy shield was overloaded, the warship's armor and the hull itself would face the terrifying devouring and tearing force.
If it were before, Song Chi would definitely hesitate for a while, but today his attitude is particularly firm. Tianxu Cangqiong did not stop and continued to advance.
The reason is that a few hours ago, the [Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine] component had a slight tremor, and it sensed the existence of an antimatter source not far ahead.
For this reason alone, Song Chi would never retreat.
The faster the warship swept forward, the faster the shield value of the energy shield on the surface of the warship was reduced.
[Warning, affected by the external swallowing and tearing force, the shield value of the warship energy shield decreased by 26%, and the current shield value remained 74%. ]
[Warning, affected... The current shield value remained 51%. ]
[Warning, affected... The current shield value remained 18%, please repair as soon as possible. ]
When the shield value fell below the 20% mark, Song Chi quickly activated the [Last Blessing] component.
Now that the [Last Blessing] has been strengthened to the sixth level, the energy shield value it can restore each time has reached 80%.
This means that the light emitted by the Five Elements Zhoutian Energy Shield is almost fully filled again.
However, this is only temporary. The warning sound in the battleship continues to sound, and the shield value that has just been almost fully restored is rapidly decreasing.
Looking ahead again, it is not far from the location where the [Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine] sends out the induction.
But it is obviously less than 20,000 meters away, but at this moment, Song Chi feels particularly far away. He wants to start the battleship jump, but under this terrifying compression and tearing force, the risk of rashly jumping is extremely high. If you are not careful, the ship will be destroyed and people will die.
He can only continue to control the Tianxu Cangqiong to slowly move forward.
[Warning, affected... The current shield value is 16% remaining, please repair it as soon as possible. 】
In a short time, the shield value of the energy shield dropped by 20% for the second time. Song Chi could only activate the last battleship repair. In an instant, the energy shield value was restored to 95% again.
At the same time, he also increased the speed of Tianxu Cangqiong.
Finally, the battleship arrived at the antimatter source identified by the [Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine] component. It was a special energy ball of pitch black color. If it were not for the identification of the [Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine], he would never know that this thing was actually a large antimatter source.
There was no time for him to think more. The battleship hatch opened a very small gap, and the battleship tractor beam shot out from this gap with difficulty.
But even so, the indescribable squeezing and tearing force from the outside world still invaded from this very small hatch gap.
In an instant, the warning sound of the Qiongtian Intelligent Brain sounded quickly.
In just a moment, the battleship hull suffered considerable damage, but Song Chi could not stop, because once the hatch was closed, the tractor beam would also be completely ineffective, and the follow-up would have to start again.
Song Chi's face was tense, and his solemn eyes were fixed on the tractor beam that swept out of the warship. It was obvious that under the extreme compression force of the outside world, even the tractor beam was greatly affected. The tractor beam that was originally enough to work at a distance of tens of thousands of meters was now compressed to just over a hundred meters.
Because of this, even though Song Chi had tried his best to control the warship to get close to the antimatter source, the tractor beam was extremely difficult to pull.
In this case, the outer energy shield of the warship was rapidly depleted.
When the antimatter source was pulled into the cabin, the shield value of the Five Elements Zhoutian Energy Shield fell by 20% for the third time, and this time it was even worse, with only 11% left.
In response, Song Chi gritted his teeth and activated the "Posha Zen Seal·Inner·Speed" feature, allowing the [Last Blessing] component to instantly complete the cooling of the repair effect, and then he activated this silver repair component for the third time.
Instantly, the shield value of the energy shield returned to 91% again.
At the same time, the Qiongtian Intelligent Brain began to turn the warship rapidly and rushed towards the periphery.
However, Song Chi was completely absent-minded at this moment. He turned his sight to the deeper part of the black hole. If the previous glance was not an illusion, he seemed to have seen a flash of black light in the deeper part of this small black hole.
Originally, everything was pitch black inside the black hole, and there was no other light. However, the flash of black light just now was completely different from the pitch black of the black hole itself. It was more like a kind of obsidian black, with light emitting.
However, time was tight, and he didn't have time to think too much. If he didn't leave, the energy shield of the warship would be overloaded.
PS: Guess what it will be?
