Everyone's playing Red Giant? I, Black Hole, devour everything!

Those three words were like a verdict.

The gravitational field of the primordial black hole suddenly tightened.

The first things to be drawn into the field of vision were the neutron star fragments scattered on the edge of the battlefield.

Then there are the neutron stars that are still intact.

One after another.

It was broken down into elementary particles by the primordial black hole and then disappeared silently into the event horizon.

Seeing that his neutron star was about to be sucked into the black hole, Ryosuke Yamamoto went all out.

He used his last strength to send out a communication.

"Lin Tian!! Japan will not let you get away with this!! Amaterasu-sha—"

Before he could finish speaking, the communication was abruptly cut off.

His celestial body was completely torn apart by tidal forces at that moment.

In an incredibly violent gamma burst, it shattered into countless high-energy particles.

Before these particles could disperse, they were captured by the gravitational field of the primordial black hole and entered the accretion disk.

Thirty neutron stars vanished completely.

……

Meanwhile, in Tokyo, the land of cherry blossoms.

"Thirty of them. All the spies we've had infiltrated the Seventh Sector for so many years have been pulled out in a single day."

No one dared to speak.

The president slowly raised his head, his gaze sweeping over the faces on both sides of the long table.

Every time the light swept over someone, the person would unconsciously lower their head.

"When was Yamamoto Ryosuke's observation chamber shut down?"

"Three minutes ago," a middle-aged man on the left spoke cautiously, "according to the data from the life monitoring sensors, his consciousness had left the observation state, but..."

"But what?"

"However, the way consciousness broke out was very abnormal. Data shows that it was a high-energy gamma burst caused by star collapse that broke through the consciousness synchronization channel of the observation chamber."

The star collapsed.

When those four words were spoken, everyone in the conference room fell silent.

A neutron star is a collapsed form of a star. Its structure is supported by neutron decompression, but if a stronger gravitational field breaks through the neutron star, the neutron decompression will be completely crushed.

In this scenario, the neutron star would continue to collapse—collapse into a black hole.

The problem is that neutron stars cannot spontaneously form black holes.

Its quality falls far short of that threshold.

The gravitational field that can penetrate a neutron star can only come from a much more powerful external celestial body.

A deathly silence spread around everyone.

The president didn't speak. He stood up, walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, and looked out at the steel forest.

After a long silence, he spoke again.

"Connect me to the U.S. Secret Service."

"Tell them that the S-class threat target they want has grown to the point where it can threaten all of us."

……

Seventh Star District, Wasteland.

The primordial black hole floated silently in the void, and the surrounding dark matter halo had not yet been completely swallowed up.

Normally, Lin Tian would definitely stay and devour this dark matter halo before leaving.

But now, he can't wait any longer.

Although Ryosuke Yamamoto is dead, the Amaterasu-sha, which he was associated with, still exists.

The Zhao family still exists.

Neither of these two forces, one operating openly and the other covertly, will let him go.

If he continues to stay in the Seventh Star Sector, he will sooner or later be dragged into more unnecessary trouble.

He wasn't afraid of trouble, but he didn't want to waste time on these trivial matters.

"Activate free sector teleportation".

Lin Tian issued a command in his mind.

[Initiating sector teleportation...]

[Target Star Sector: 27]

[Number of uses: 1]

[Number of attempts remaining: 4]

A white beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping the entire primordial black hole.

The next second, the massive event horizon disappeared from the wasteland.

Only a dark matter halo hole with a diameter of tens of light-years remains, quietly standing in place.

……

Great Xia Kingdom, Sector 27.

Lin Tian didn't know much about the Twenty-Seventh Star Region.

All that is known is that this star region is about 4,200 light-years in diameter, has a medium to low star density, and has only moderate reserves of known star minerals. It is classified as a Class B star region.

Compared to the Seventh Star Sector, it's worlds apart.

After all, the Seventh Star Zone is rated A+, placing it in the top tier of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Aside from the four top-tier S-class star sectors, the next one is the seventh star sector.

In comparison, the 27th sector seems far too shabby.

However, Lin Tian didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

The problem with the Seventh Star Sector is that it's too noisy; he can't even eat in peace.

it's good now.

No one in the 27th Star Sector knew him, and no one was watching him, so he could focus on his own work.

"First, determine the coordinate deviation."

Lin Tian retrieved the coordinates from the Ayers database and compared them with the corrected coordinates he had recalculated.

The landing point of interstellar transmission is highly accurate, with an error range not exceeding 0.1 light-years.

But the quasar incubator is a place that has been hidden for hundreds of millions of years, and any slight deviation could cause him to miss his target.

He didn't want to be searching for a needle in a haystack in this star sector.

The gravitational field slowly spread out.

About ten minutes later.

Confirmed.

The deviation between his landing point and the target coordinates was only 0.03 light-years.

On a cosmic scale, this error is almost negligible.

"Good luck."

Lin Tian's consciousness stirred slightly, and the Primordial Black Hole began to move in the direction of the coordinates.

……

The surrounding starry sky was quiet, and as he approached the target coordinates, the density of interstellar matter in the vicinity was decreasing rapidly.

This is because the distribution of matter in the surrounding space has been altered.

The Ayrs used a gravitational array to seal the quasar incubation field for hundreds of millions of years. This seal caused matter to be constantly attracted inward, compressed, and devoured.

Over time, a material vacuum zone will form around the seal.

"It should be just ahead."

Lin Tian tightened the gravitational field and began to decelerate.

Soon, he arrived in an unfamiliar area.

From the outside, this area looks no different from other places.

But Lin Tian knew that this was just an appearance.

He calmed himself down and began to release the gravitational field.

The gravitational field with a spacetime curvature of 12th order surged outwards like a tide.

The gravitational field penetrates inward layer by layer.

The dark matter halo surrounding the incubator gradually took shape in his perception.

It doesn't look that big; its diameter is only a few tens of light-years.

But its density is exceptionally high.

It is many times larger than the super dark matter halo in the seventh star sector.

The quasar incubation field is hidden within these dark matter halos; gravitational fields alone are insufficient to penetrate them and see what's inside the seal.

Lin Tian had to use his new trump card—Dark Energy Affinity.

By using dark energy affinity, we can perceive the distribution of dark energy in this region, thus unveiling this mystery.

He calmed his mind and activated his dark energy affinity.

In an instant, Lin Tian felt an indescribable change in his perception.

The darkness before him did not brighten, but his vision became clearer.

He can "see" the flow of dark energy.

They are like undercurrents in the universe, omnipresent and all-pervasive.

But they are affected by gravity.

The greater the mass of a region, the sparser the distribution of dark energy.

Because the gravitational field of massive celestial bodies will repel dark energy outward.

This phenomenon had a name in the astronomy of the past—the dark energy void.

Right now, right in front of Lin Tian, ​​there is a huge void of dark energy.

The Ayrs used a gravity array to lock the dark energy in this area into a specific structure.

This structure is like a cocoon, completely enveloping the entire hatchery.

"Truly a masterpiece..."

Lin Tian couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

This technology has surpassed all his understanding of gravity manipulation.

The Ayrs can not only control black holes with gravitational arrays, but also bind dark energy with them.

It's important to know that dark energy is the force driving the expansion of the entire universe.

How much precise control would it take to confine it to an area less than twenty light-years in diameter?

But despite his praise, Lin Tian did not forget his purpose.

He combined gravity and dark energy affinity, and began to penetrate inward little by little.

Finally, he saw the inside.
