Chapter 443 - Capturing the Black Hole

Buzz.

The spaceship began to shake, and small spaceships flew out one after another. There were probably tens of thousands of them, all flying towards the black hole in the distance.

These spaceships contained “meta-matter”. This was a strange substance newly discovered by the Science Academy of the Matrix Civilization. They had discovered that this kind of meta-matter could effectively resist the devouring force of black holes.

The Matrix civilization planned to use this characteristic of the meta-matter to capture the black hole.

Of course, they had only conducted some experiments in the laboratory before. While all of them were all successful, this was the first time they were trying to capture such a massive black hole.

This was also the first time Lin Feng had seen a black hole. He even discreetly extended a trace of mental power, which attached to those spaceships.

However, as the spaceships approached the black hole, there was no longer any need for them to fly. The powerful devouring force of the black hole devoured tens of thousands of spaceships directly.

Even the mental power that Lin Feng had attached to the spaceships could not be retracted when he tried to. It was devoured by the black hole in a frenzy.

For the first time, Lin Feng felt the horror of the black hole. It was vast and profoundly deep, as if it could devour everything.

Fortunately, Lin Feng cut off that trace of mental power immediately. Otherwise, all his mental power would be devoured by the black hole. Since it could devour even mental power, Lin Feng became even more cautious.

With his current strength, once he was captured and devoured by the black hole, he would probably be doomed. After all, even advanced planetary lifeforms could not escape death when facing the black hole.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

As tens of thousands of small spaceships were devoured by the black hole, the moment approached the black hole, the established procedures in these spaceships began to explode violently. The flames of the explosion disappeared almost in a flash, devoured by the massive black hole.

However, a layer of white substance actually slowly floated up in the pitch-black black hole.

“That’s…”

Everyone was shocked. Even the scientific personnel had excited expressions. This white substance was meta-matter, a very strange substance.

It was able to resist the devouring of a black hole. Originally, such a scene could only be seen in a laboratory. But now, in front of this massive black hole, this meta-matter actually managed to resist the devouring of the black hole as well.

“Meta-matter release successful. Enter the next stage at once. Condense the meta-matter web and capture the black hole!”

Hence, according to the previous plan, the Science Academy began to release a large amount of meta-matter. The tens of thousands of spaceships from before were only a portion of the total. There were also many small spaceships carrying more meta-matter into the black hole.

As the spaceships flew into the black hole one after another, more and more meta-matter was released. In the end, a white screen of light gradually appeared in the black hole. In the beginning, this screen of light was only a small portion, the size of a palm.

However, as the amount of meta-matter increased, the light screen also grew larger and larger. Finally, it vaguely covered a portion of the black hole, and it was still expanding rapidly.

Even those spaceships did not seem to encounter much devouring force.

“Success, success. The black hole will definitely be captured!”

Many scientific researchers of the Matrix civilization stared intently at the light screen. The Black Hole Capture Project was not done overnight. It had been a hundred years since the discovery of the meta-matter.

Even with advanced technology and greatly extended lifespans for ordinary people, it was still a long time. They had committed painstaking effort into it.

Now, as the meta-matter slowly condensed into a “huge net” that enveloped the black hole, they were getting closer and closer to realizing their dream.

Once they captured the black hole, they would make history. They would be remembered by the Matrix people forever!

Time passed slowly. As batches of meta-matter were released, the light screen formed by the meta-matter became larger and larger. From afar, it looked like a huge net surrounding the black hole.

Of course, the amount of meta-matter required to completely “lock” the black hole would be an astronomical figure. However, meta-matter itself was very strange. The energy released by even one gram of meta-matter was shockingly strong, and could envelop a large area of the black hole.

Lin Feng was also paying attention to the situation among the people at all times. He knew that the more critical the moment, and the closer they got to success, the more likely those fiends would get impatient and act.

One day, two days, three days…

The spaceship released batches of meta-matter continuously for more than a month. Finally, the black hole was almost invisible, save for a little of it.

The last batch of meta-matter was released. Once this batch of meta-matter condensed and took shape, the black hole could be completely sealed. From then on, this black hole would become the possession of the Matrix civilization, and the most precious celestial body. The scientific research value would be unimaginable.

However, while the black hole was very important to the Matrix civilization, it was also very important to the fiends.

As the last batch of meta-matter was released with a blast, forming a huge “net” that completely sealed the black hole, the entire spaceship exploded.

That’s right, it exploded. It happened with ease. Three unimaginably massive and terrifying bodies charged out of the flames.

Fiends. A total of three fiends had appeared!

“Haha, a black hole. It’s really a black hole. The Matrix civilization actually captured a black hole for real.”

One of the fiends threw his head back and laughed aloud.

“We have been waiting for this day for a hundred years. Ever since we learned that the Matrix civilization had actually discovered meta-matter, we pushed the Matrix civilization to launch the Black Hole Capture Project. Who’d expected thought that they would actually succeed?”

“Once we devour the black hole, we are all very likely to undergo metamorphosis. At that time, there’s nowhere we can’t go in this vast universe.”

The three fiends had made great efforts, and actually spent a hundred years lurking in the Matrix civilization.

Lin Feng stood in the void. He did not move at all. The moment the spaceship exploded, he used the Law of Space to teleport out of the spaceship and hid at the side to observe the three fiends closely.

He had read the detailed information of the researchers in this project, so he recognized the three fiends at a glance. They were actually the founders of the Black Hole Capture Project.

The three of them were all founders. They were the ones who single-handedly promoted the Black Hole Capture Project. That was why it could make rapid progress in just a hundred years.

Even Lin Feng felt impressed that they were able to endure for a hundred years and even specifically promote a scientific research plan, all for their ambition. Now, they had finally achieved their goal using the Matrix civilization and successfully captured the black hole.

This scheming ability was much stronger than even the empress of the Blue River Empire back then.

Moreover, what was even more terrifying was that these three fiends were all advanced planetary lifeforms! The combat bodies they used were comparable to stars. From afar, they looked like three behemoths that could devour stars at any time.

This was also why Lin Feng had been waiting discreetly. With three advanced planetary lifeforms, this was no longer something he could interfere in.

He sent the images here to the Divine Palace immediately. As for whether the powerful lifeforms in the Divine Palace could arrive in time, it was not up to Lin Feng to decide.
