Electromagnetic Tyrant

Chapter 397 Dark Energy Monster

Ji Xinghuo has read the information about the Youhu tribe, including the geographical scenery and cities of the Black Ring Planet before it was bombed.

 The architectural style of the Youhu people is easy to identify.

They are not accustomed to living in caves or mountains like most of the anemone tribe. They are more like humans. They have built modern cities with continuous high-rise buildings that exceed the sky's height and make full use of space.

This is the ruins in front of you.

 However, the entire city and the earth were turned upside down, upside down, and the ruins seemed to hang overhead.

Suffering such drastic changes, most of the buildings have been destroyed and collapsed, leaving only a handful of buildings made of unknown building materials that maintain the main structure, like giant bamboo shoots inserted upside down into the ground, supporting the dome.

 After more than a thousand years of baptism, the ruins are covered with ferns.

 Collapsed ruins with no end in sight.

Ji Xinghuo looked at the opposite side of the ruins. Even the Wanxiang Xingpu couldn't see through the darkness that seemed to be constantly churning.

 The range of the ruins also exceeds the radius of electromagnetic induction.

Ji Xinghuo looked up and saw through the shadows at a glance.

 Soon, Ji Xinghuo found some footprints, some from humans and some from other races. Judging from the traces, the time was not too long ago.

A black shadow jumped out from the shadow of the wall on the building, a hundred meters above the ground, and jumped down towards him at an extremely fast speed. A large black fog-like shadow shrouded the outside of the body, making its outline blurred and difficult to see clearly. .

  Ji Xinghuo saw the monster clearly, and its information was displayed on the lens.

 “Dark energy?”

It has no vision, but it can detect itself when it is invisible. Its appearance is terrifying and ferocious, and it can launch precise attacks.

 “There must be something fishy!”

It looks like a human lying on the ground crawling on all fours. It is more than two meters long. It has no skin all over its body and its dark red flesh is exposed. It has a huge, tumor-like head, but there are no eyes or nose on its face, only one face covered with multiple layers of fangs. Its big mouth and dark throat seem to be able to **** even light in.

Immediately afterwards, the shadow layer outside its body was shot through, offsetting part of the energy of the high-temperature beam. The second high-temperature beam followed, shooting into its **** mouth with incomparable precision, and piercing through the top of its head.

 But he did not act rashly, but continued to observe.

 咻咻咻…

At the same time, the plasma gun in Ji Xinghuo's hand also fired, starting the burst mode and ejecting a series of plasma beams.

Ji Xinghuo suddenly became energetic when he thought of this. There might be some kind of treasure in this situation, but the strangers who have been to the ruins should also have discovered it. Is it too late for him to come now?

 Suddenly, he sensed danger.

At that time, three of the five Shepherd Saints of the Youhu Clan were Dark Stringers!

 “More than a thousand years ago.”

This is one of the most dangerous monsters on the Black Ring Star. It moves quickly and comes and goes without a trace. Their claws can easily tear apart metal. Their defense and recovery power are also very strong. They are usually only found in the deepest underground. Will appear.

 In an instant, he grasped the habits and weaknesses of the Dark Eater and responded immediately.

“After such a long time, even if the Youhu Clan had studied dark energy in this city, it should have dissipated.”

It is this energy that interferes with the magnetic field, making it seem like you are stuck in a quagmire. Every move you make has a slight sense of stickiness, but there is not that much resistance.

The magnetic field is still disordered and chaotic.

In front of you is a building that is inserted diagonally into the ground. It was originally at least two thousand meters high, but now only the main structure remains.

Ji Xinghuo guessed, "It could also be dark matter, or both."

　　Boom!

 A bolt of lightning exploded in the air, dispelling the darkness, and thunder echoed in the ruins.

The Vientiane Star Pupil seems to be cast in a shadow, and an invisible energy fills every inch of space, like an ocean of ink, saturating all materials in the space, creating a very strange negative pressure.

 Any Dark Eater can cause a headache for the aliens. The most terrifying thing is that they are gregarious hunters!

Much information flashed before Ji Xinghuo's eyes.

 “Dark Eater!”

Four hundred years after the Stargate of the Black Ring Star was reopened, countless strangers entered the Eternal Darkness Rift. It is impossible that no one discovered the ruins.

 In this case, the danger is not great.

"The ruins of this city have been discovered a long time ago." Ji Xinghuo was not surprised at all. He relied on electromagnetic induction to find it. Others also had other methods, or they also had electromagnetic induction.

Ji Xinghuo frowned. He had already entered the ruins. The electromagnetic induction was still unclear, and he could not find the source of the disturbing magnetic field. It seemed to be everywhere, but it did not affect his normal vision.

96% of the matter in the universe is dark energy and dark matter. They are the background of the universe and even the universe itself. They drive the movement of the universe with repulsive force, but they do not absorb, reflect or radiate light, nor do they interact with most particles. force.

 The monster's forelimbs are disproportionately thick and have a pair of huge claws.

Ji Xinghuo remained invisible and flew into the ruins unhurriedly. Inside, he immediately sensed something unusual here.

The Youhu tribe’s racial talent “Dark Lord” is the leader in this field. Their research on dark energy and dark matter is so deep that even the True Dragons are not as good as it.

 This is a dark red monster!

 Hence, Darkstringer is one of the most powerful professions.

 Dark stringers borrow and manipulate dark energy and dark matter through spiritual energy.

“But the reality is that it’s still at play.”

 Perhaps they have been searched hundreds of times by the real dragon people.

"strangeness…"

 In the weak fluorescence, he saw a few fleeting shadows, "There are monsters in the ruins!"

 The lightning struck the Dark Eater from bottom to top, causing it to stagnate.

Before the Dark Eater could scream, another high-temperature beam blasted its head, exploding directly into plasma.

  【Spiritual Energy +28】

 Snap.

 The corpse of the Dark Eater fell in front of him.

Ji Xinghuo didn't look at it, and kept shooting with his hand. The lightning illuminated more than a dozen Dark Eaters around him, some were upstairs above his head, some were hiding among the ferns, and some were lurking in the shadows behind him. .

 Unknowingly, he was surrounded by the Dark Eaters, who launched attacks at the same time.

 There are also Flood-level monsters in the Dark Eaters.

This is the biggest danger Ji Xinghuo has encountered since entering the Black Ring Planet, but he did not panic at all, and his eyes were as calm as ice.

　　咻咻…

Hold the gun in his left hand and continue to fire. Three consecutive high-temperature beams blasted the head of a Dark Eater from the left. Then he turned the gun and shot three more times, killing another Dark Eater that jumped from the top.

 A black shadow suddenly jumped out from behind Ji Xinghuo, and its huge claws slashed his neck, leaving dark scratches.

Ji Xinghuo seemed to have eyes on the back of his head and flashed forward.

 Shunstep!

 He didn't pay attention to the Dark Eaters who came by "Shadow Jump", and didn't even look back, because Qinghong had already gone to battle.

 A huge creature appeared on the spot, and the claws of the Dark Eater struck the gold, silver, and green scales, splashing out countless sparks. Before it could continue its attack, an invisible gravity field was released from Qinghong's body, and its gravity increased twenty times.

 The speed of the Dark Eaters attacking from the surrounding areas is suddenly reduced.

Qinghong waved her Sky-Splitting Claw and responded to the Dark Eater in front of her, tearing the monster into pieces with one claw.

Ji Xinghuo stood in the gravity field and kept firing. The muzzle moved back and forth, shooting out high-temperature beams one after another. Each one accurately hit the monster. He killed one Dark Eater with three shots and killed five of them in a few seconds.

 The shadow under my feet suddenly came to life, as if something was about to come out.

Ji Xinghuo straightened his body and raised his foot.

　　Boom!

The ground shook, and a spiral force erupted from his feet, instantly trampling the newly jumped out head into a pulp.

 At the same time, there was continuous thunder in the sky, and lightning continued to strike down.

The Dark Eaters hiding in the shadows were forced to appear, leaving them with nowhere to hide and their movement slowed down in the gravity field. Qinghong rushed forward and tore them apart with one claw.

 Amidst the gunfire and thunder, Dark Eaters were killed every second.

 Spirit energy prompts are refreshing the screen.

Even so, there were still dark eaters who braved the lightning and electric arcs and leaped from the shadows to Ji Xinghuo's side to make a surprise attack.

 They seem to have no emotions and no concept of fear, just like the walking zombies.

Ji Xinghuo holds the electric potential war blade in his right hand.

He did not turn on Vientiane Senluo, but his microscopic perception was always there, and he was able to control all movements within five meters of his body. The flow of air and energy, the conduction of sound waves and force, all details were presented in his mind, down to the smallest detail. As if he knew everything.

 After shooting a Dark Eater, Ji Xinghuo turned around and slashed out.

　　Electricity bursts out.

As soon as a Dark Eater jumped out from the side shadow, it was cut in half. Ji Xinghuo turned the blade around and struck again.

 Raiche!

His whole body turned into a sword and swept across more than ten meters. Four more bodies were cut in half on the ground.

 Then he stopped where he was and continued shooting. In the blink of an eye, almost all the dozen or so Dark Eaters were dead.

Ji Xinghuo's gaze penetrated the shadow, and his body instantly swelled to more than four meters tall. His strength surged, and the lightning in his eyes jumped. He struck out with a lightning strike, cutting through a ruined wall a hundred meters away like tofu.

 An obviously larger Dark Eater fell out of the shadows and raised his claws to shoulder Ji Xinghuo's sword.

                       .

The claws that could tear apart metal were severed, and a red line appeared on the body of this flood-level darkness eater. Then the body slid sideways, revealing a flat section, and the head was chopped off, completely dead.

  【Spiritual energy +265】

Ji Xinghuo stood with a knife in his hand and glanced around.

The sound of the battle attracted more Dark Eaters. They approached from the shadows and were about to join the siege. After the death of this flood-level Dark Eater, they suddenly stopped together, blended into the darkness and retreated to the depths of the ruins.

"a large amount!"

Ji Xinghuo saw hundreds of Dark Eaters, and he could no longer restrain his murderous intent.

 Dark Eaters are at least elite level.

Half are at the super group level, and you can get a lot of spiritual energy from killing them. If there are a lot of Dark Eaters in the ruins, it will be the best hunting ground!

 He reached out and touched the body in front of him.

  【Monster: Dark Eater】

 【Level: Natural Disaster - Flood】

 【Alien: Touch of Darkness, Shadow Escape, Shadow Leap, Giant Blood Claw, Tear, Rapid Healing, Bloodthirsty Rage, Advanced Toughness】

 “It turns out to be the Touch of Darkness!”

Ji Xinghuo finally understood why the Dark Eaters had such keen perception despite having no vision.

Touch of Darkness is an ultra-limited ability. It integrates one's touch into the darkness and can receive the movement of everything within the range and the slight vibrations it emits. It is very sensitive and is one of the super-model abilities of "Shadow Blade".

This Flood-level Dark Eater has a small number of alien species, but its combination effect is powerful.

Monsters on the Black Ring Planet all have this in common.

 Obviously, it is also a product of the biotechnology of the Youhu tribe. It almost combines the "Shadow Blade" and the "Giant General". It has super stealth ability and powerful body strength, making it quite difficult to deal with.

Ji Xinghuo checked the mutant information of other Dark Eaters and found that their mutant species were not exactly the same.

 Some lack these, some lack that.

 Collect all the different species and eliminate the same ones, there are 18 in total.

If a Dark Eater possesses all these alien species, it will at least reach earthquake level, or even be a Meteor level monster, which is extremely powerful.

Ji Xinghuo looked deep into the ruins.

There is a lot of spiritual energy that you want, but there may be terrible monsters that can threaten you.

 He did not hesitate and waved to Qinghong. It shrank to a mini form and fell into his pocket.

 Then activate invisibility and continue deeper into the ruins.

 It didn’t take long.

Ji Xinghuo discovered a group of Dark Eaters, eight in total, scattered and lurking among the ruins of a building, motionless as if they were dead.

 He pretended not to notice and approached invisibly.

Sure enough, the dark eaters noticed the prey, moved silently, and began to hunt.

 Fighting broke out.

 It was over in less than a minute, and the eight Dark Eaters turned into broken corpses on the ground.

Ji Xinghuo harvested nearly 200 points of spiritual energy.

“The efficiency of hunting Dark Eaters is indeed much higher than hunting other monsters outside.” He was very pleased. He quickly collected the alien species and continued to wander around the ruins, planning to clear out the monsters one by one.

Ji Xinghuo tirelessly hunted hundreds of Dark Eaters using himself as bait. In just ten hours, his mental energy increased by 6,000 points!

However, as he hunted more and more, it seemed that something happened among the Dark Eaters, and they deliberately avoided him.

 “It’s okay, I’ll move to another place.”

Ji Xinghuo looked at the ruins.

Although most of this Youhu Clan city was destroyed, the remaining ruins are also very large and cannot be explored for a while. He moved the hunting area, and sure enough, the new Dark Eater didn't know about it and easily fell for the bait.

 It was another few hours of hunting, and the mental energy was close to 60,000 points.

 “It’s so cool!”

Ji Xinghuo collected the alien species into the Dragon Ring, and was about to continue his efforts to find the next group of Dark Eaters, when his eyebrows suddenly felt like needle pricks.

 Danger warning sign!

The Vientiane Senluo was automatically activated, and the world slowed down.

Ji Xinghuo's field of vision showed countless streams of light, evolving the scene of the future. He saw hundreds of meters around him instantly darken, as if all the light had been swallowed up. Fortunately, the All-Things Star Pupil was not affected and was still clearly visible.

At the same time as the surrounding area darkened, dark energy invisible to the naked eye suddenly surged, like a black wave sweeping in.

 An energy vortex about ten meters in diameter suddenly appeared in front of him.

 Everything in the vortex is sucked toward the center.

Ji Xinghuo was also sucked towards the center of the vortex by an irresistible force. The tide of dark energy squeezed his whole body, making it difficult to move. The star power in his body also stagnated, making it extremely difficult to use supernatural powers or activate weapons and equipment.

When he was controlled by the vortex, a black laser shot out in the air, as thick as an arm, and went straight to Ji Xinghuo's head.

 The outermost super suit was instantly pierced.

Tantalum silicon battle armor, manifold barrier and holy scale armor, the three layers of protection were activated, and finally blocked the black laser.

"what?"

Ji Xinghuo still couldn't move, but Wanxiang Xingtong had already locked onto the target.

 Hide in the shadow of the black laser source is a strange thing more than two meters high.

It has begun to take on a humanoid outline, but it has no legs. Its lower body is a dark energy vortex. The body grows out of the middle of the vortex and expands as it goes up. There are a pair of rough arms on both sides, without fingers, and there is no neck from the chest up. The head is thick, and the front of the face is just a pair of narrow eyes shining with blue light. The whole body is constantly flowing, and the black energy drips down, and flows back to the body from the vortex, and the cycle is endless.

 “Energy creature!”

Ji Xinghuo finally saw clearly this monster that seemed to be somewhere between reality and reality, but he had never seen it before.

 The scanning glasses dedicated to the Black Ring Star also yielded no results.

Its eyes fired black lasers again, but still failed to break through Ji Xinghuo's defense. Two seconds had passed and Ji Xinghuo had been sucked into the center of the vortex.

 The control time of the vortex is coming to an end.

The body of the energy creature spread out and turned into a black wave, carrying the tide of dark energy towards Ji Xinghuo.

This wave is like a liquid flame, with the killing effects of ultra-high temperature burning and ultra-low temperature freezing.

 It surged directly onto Ji Xinghuo, completely engulfing him.

Suddenly, Ji Xinghuo felt the taste of ice and fire, hot and cold. The tantalum-silicon armor instantly disintegrated, and the manifold barrier was corroded and collapsed. The terrifying liquid black fire seeped into the body from the gaps in the holy scale armor.

Ji Xinghuo was injured in just a moment. His whole body was in severe pain, and his body seemed to be about to collapse.

Even Qinghong suffered the disaster and screamed in pain.

 Finally the suction of the vortex disappeared.

Ji Xinghuo activated his flashing boots without hesitation, teleported dozens of meters away, and escaped the erosion of the liquid black fire.

 The screen stops.

 The scene in front of Ji Xinghuo changed and returned to before he was attacked. What he saw in these few seconds was the future, which had not happened yet.

Time is still passing slowly and silently.

Ji Xinghuo turned around and locked onto the energy creature. It had just emerged from the shadows and was about to darken its surroundings. Then it released an energy vortex on itself and launched a series of strange and terrifying attacks.

 He had a thought in his mind.

 Teleport!

Almost the moment Ji Xinghuo disappeared, the surroundings turned completely dark, and then the energy vortex appeared at his previous location.

 But this time, the vortex released by the monster was empty.

It obviously didn't expect that Ji Xinghuo could dodge his control and attack. On the blurry and flowing face, the blue and narrow eyes were stunned for a moment, and the black laser that was about to be shot couldn't help but stop.

 “It’s my turn!”

 After Ji Xinghuo teleported, he "accelerated" without looking back, instantly entered his fastest speed, flew out of the dark range and distanced himself.

 The song of the soul string is in the hand, and the bow string is drawn.

As he was soaring, Ji Xinghuo turned around and shot a series of arrows. With a sound of thunder, he turned into lightning and went straight towards the monster.
