traveler among pirates

Chapter 67

Facing the black ball that started to repair itself, Hughes did not block it, but observed its every move with interest.

A battle that ends too quickly is not his favorite battle.

That is, at the moment when the black ball recovered, the black ball suddenly began to rise, and the tiny black tentacles wriggling on the surface of the black ball began to mutate.

The pitch-black sphere began to flicker with black light, and the black sphere, which was originally only the size of a basketball, began to expand, turning into a sphere with a radius of one meter.

And those tentacles seemed to absorb the nutrients of the black ball, and began to divide and grow continuously.

The distorted black light emanating from the black balls seemed to have turned into real tentacles, growing strangely and becoming thick.

The twisted tentacles eventually grew into pitch-black tentacles as thick as arms. The surface of the tentacles was not as ugly as Hughes imagined.

The surface of the pitch-black tentacles is smooth, and the shiny black surface reveals a metallic luster, which has a strange beauty.

Suddenly, among the writhing tentacles, a tentacle shot straight at Hughes without warning.

But facing the sudden attack, Hughes just shook his head sideways. A gust of wind blew past Hughes' face, and a pitch-black tentacle shot past Hughes' ear like a javelin, piercing into the metal ground.

huh~
The tentacles were quickly retracted.

Suddenly, a deep hole appeared behind Hughes, and a wisp of smoke and dust rose from the hole. The hole was neat, and there were no cracks in the surrounding floors.

This is enough to prove how big and concentrated the power that erupted from the tentacle was. The power was completely concentrated on one point, without any waste.

collapse!collapse!collapse! !

After retracting the tentacles, the black ball did not stop attacking, and the pitch-black tentacles continued to shoot out towards Hughes. Hughes raised his right hand, and waved the red knife in his hand to continuously split the tentacles that were stabbing him.

Scarlet was danced airtight by Hughes, and the javelin-like tentacles were blocked by Hughes one by one. The hardness of these tentacles was the same as their appearance.

When Fei split the tentacles, she could only leave white marks on them, and those marks would disappear when the tentacles launched their next round of attack.

Hughes was pushed back a little bit by the huge impact brought by the dense tentacles, and none of the ground along the way was intact.

The tentacles facing the black ball on the metal ground, which can withstand huge pressure, are as fragile as tofu.

The ground instantly became a honeycomb, and the dark tentacles kept oppressing the living space of Hughes, and Hughes would soon be forced to the wall.

Seeing this, Hughes looked intently at the countless tentacles coming towards him, holding the red knife tightly in his right hand, looking for an opportunity while cutting open the tentacles, "I found it!"

Hughes slashed fiercely with the knife in his hand, and the red knife turned into a streak of bloody horses with red smoke and slashed out.

The tentacles stabbing at Hughes stopped in mid-air.

puff.

A thin line appeared in the front of the tentacle, and the tip of the tentacle slipped off the main body and fell to the ground.

The remaining tentacles were quickly taken back by the black ball, and those tentacles that fell down turned into wisps of black smoke and disappeared into the air shortly after they were separated from the mother body.

"Oh~"

Hughes suddenly discovered that those tentacles did not dissipate in the air, and those tentacles turned into a kind of energy in the air and were absorbed by the floor.

Hughes looked at the floor full of potholes under his feet, raised his feet, and stepped down.

boom!
The metal floor broke instantly, centering on Hughes' feet, the ground began to sag outward layer by layer, and finally turned into a deep pit with a diameter of 20 meters, with large cracks outside the pit.

Hughes' kick seemed to touch some switch, and the black ball that was floating suddenly began to twist its tentacles crazily.

The black light on the surface of the sphere became deeper and deeper, the surrounding space and light seemed to be swallowed up, and the environment outside the black sphere became violently distorted.

Suddenly a strong suction force erupted from the black ball, blowing Hughes' clothes to the ground.

The black ball became like a black hole, and began to crazily attract the surrounding things, and the gravel on the ground began to be slowly attracted, leading to the black ball.

As time passed, the gravitational force of the black ball continued to grow, and the rubble that had been cut by Hughes was sucked in, and large pieces of building debris flew into the air, attracted by the black ball.

A large amount of material was continuously sucked into the black sphere, and the stones and steel were swallowed by the black sphere and disappeared. The black sphere seemed to be a bottomless pit, constantly pulling everything around.

Swallowing everything that can be swallowed, even the light becomes distorted as it approaches the black ball.

hum! ~

With a clicking sound, the remaining half of the experimental building on the open space was pulled, and half of the building was uprooted and sucked into the black ball.

Half of the building was cut into countless pieces by the strong wind in the air, and finally disappeared into the black hole.

Faced with this terrifying attraction, Hughes just plunged the red knife into the ground, stood straight on the spot, and looked at the black ball quietly.

After maintaining the attraction for nearly 10 minutes, the black ball stopped its movements, and the surrounding area was clean. Only Hughes and the black ball were left in the vast open space. There was no sign of any experimental building in this square. trace.

The size of the black ball has increased by more than five times, and the original tentacles have disappeared. Looking closely, there are some mysterious lines on the black ball that was originally pitch black.

There is a little fluorescent blue streamer in these lines, and the originally treacherous black ball instantly becomes extremely mysterious. The azure blue lines add a bit of noble color to this sphere.

The sphere slowly fell downwards, and finally stopped on the metal ground.

Zheng~
Hughes pulled out the scarf from the metal floor, and curiously observed the huge black ball, with streamers flowing in the blue lines.

"These patterns look familiar, and this shape..." Hughes squeezed his chin and looked around for a long time, and suddenly Hughes took out a walnut-sized object from his pocket.

This is the core that was discovered in the laboratory on the uninhabited island. This core became lifeless after arriving on the island.

The energy in the core is overflowing, and this phenomenon is more obvious here, as if something is constantly extracting the energy in the core.

Originally, Hughes had two cores in his hands, but one of them was completely scrapped just now, and the energy in it had been drawn out.

The core, which was originally able to recover energy by itself, also lost this ability after losing all energy.

However, there was a problem with the core itself. There was a flaw in the core from the very beginning, and there was a gap in it.

Hughes looked at the only remaining core in his hand. Although the core has not been completely deactivated, the energy inside it is still losing.

Hughes still intends to keep this core as a collectible, so Hughes tentatively covered it with the armed color.

The original silver core instantly turned pitch black, "It works!" Hughes heaved a sigh of relief, at least the core was temporarily preserved.

Hughes put away the core close to his body, and then looked at the huge black ball. The lines on the black ball's body were basically similar to those on the core.

It's just that the black ball is more complicated, with interlaced blue lines covering the entire ball.
