Chapter 165 Black Hole Baby

Chapter 192 Space Talent
  Suren put down the Strange Puppet and lightly grabbed at the void in front of him with one hand.

  It wasn't the feeling of touching air anymore.

  It was as if the space in his grasp had become a thin film, easily torn apart.

  He gathered the dark spirit energy in his palm, and a dark void hole appeared before his eyes.

  Then he put his hand in.

  Magically, a hand slowly extended a meter away.

  He knew very well that his palm was still connected to his arm, but there was this meter of distance in between.

  "Tsk tsk, so this is what it feels like to have mastered space..."

  Suren couldn't hide his joy when he saw this. His hands instantly transformed into sixteen warlock seals. The dark spirit energy in his body circulated, and a life-sized "black hole" appeared in front of him.

  He got up and walked straight into it.

  Then, with this one step, his front foot had already stepped out from several meters away, and his whole person appeared several meters away as well.

  This was true "space teleportation,"

  Not a displacement due to speed that the eyes couldn't capture.

  Suren savored the feeling just now, a smile overflowing from the corner of his mouth.

  Although the operation was very rough, it was the first time he had experienced the feeling of "teleportation."

  He didn't enter any space-time tunnel, it was just that the "canvas" of space was folded up, and he only took one step to go from one coordinate in space to another.

  But at the same time, this attempt also revealed shortcomings.

  Suren pondered for a moment, muttering to himself, analyzing, "The distance of space teleportation is directly related to the dark spirit energy poured in. To achieve precise control of the landing point and instant seal teleportation, a lot of proficiency needs to be improved..."

  "But where should I go to learn those space warlock seals and skills..."

  Suren frowned, feeling a bit of a headache.

  If he hadn't extracted some techniques from Edward's fragments before, just exploring this simplest spatial displacement ability would have taken him a lot of time.

  What's more, what he coveted even more was the "hand-rubbing black hole" spell!

  "Eh..."

  Thinking of this, Suren's Strange Puppet Master occupational disease relapsed, and suddenly a flash of inspiration, "My main body can't currently do the 'hand-rubbing black hole' kind of complicated warlock, make a space Strange Puppet, and then get an inhalation device, wouldn't that achieve almost the same effect?"

  He has now mastered the ability of space, and making a real space item is also easy.

  For example, a space Strange Puppet?

  That's not a sub-space like an ordinary ring, but a "folded space" that can really put in living corpses and scythes!

  Just like a magician's hat, it can be taken out at any time, taking in everything that can be carried in normal space.

  As soon as the idea arose, the first reaction in his head was a little dwarf holding a purple gourd.

  "How about, make a rune Strange Puppet version of the Gourd Brothers?"

  Suren suddenly had inspiration in his head.

  .......

  Suren now masters the ability of space, and making storage rings is as easy as blowing bubbles.

  But what he needs now is not a storage ring, but a "folded space" that can put down living corpses and sealed objects.

  The sub-space of ordinary storage rings is like a bubble in the water, which breaks when pressed.

  And the "folded space" is like a bubble floating on the surface of the water, not limited by water pressure; as long as the ability is sufficient, it can be expanded almost infinitely.

  Several days later.

  Suren then successfully created a space carrier, and put the scythe and living corpse into it.

  But the Abomination Living Corpse needs to breathe air, and he must also open a hole in the space carrier.

  For the convenience of carrying, Suren also thought of a hat, and finally he made a magician's "top hat".

  Because he felt that using Edward's magic disguise method was an appropriate method. It can exercise spellcasting skills at any time, and it will not be easily detected.

  But he was not in a hurry to go out, but continued to tinker with his new ideas.

  He wanted to make the predicted 【Black Hole Doll】.

  This day.

  The bunker was filled with various Strange Puppet parts, alchemy objects, and rune materials.

  This temporary hiding place has become a puppet workshop.

  Suren was burying his head in tinkering with a puppet arm.

  Mechanics and puppets are actually very similar in many designs.

  His current mechanical level can barely be regarded as proficient, and he can use it in puppets with ease. He made a trigger-type mechanical design for the puppet arm. As long as the mechanism is triggered, the arm can be unfolded, turning into a fan-leaf shape. Looking at it again, the six unfolded fan blades form a complete six-pointed star array...

  While doing it, he was still mumbling something in his mouth.

  "The arms of this Strange Puppet are made into hollow tubes, with 'Whirlwind Runes' engraved on the inner wall. Activation can generate suction. When encountering elemental spells, it can be directly absorbed..."

  "Engrave 'Reverse Whirlwind Runes' in the mouth, and then you can spit it out after sucking it in. Or, can you get a pressure storage device?"

  "For the energy source of the runes, you can directly use cursed crystals as a 'battery'..."

  "..."

  "Done!"

  Not long after, Suren pieced together the Strange Puppet and created the first version of the 【Black Hole Doll】.

  He used silk threads to control the puppet and tried to move it. It felt good.

  .......

  "Next, it's time to witness the miracle..."

  Suren looked at his new work and was quite satisfied.

  Then he took out a 【Phosphorus Fire Doll】 and planned to spray it to test whether the effect of the 【Black Hole Doll】 was as expected.

  Multi-tasking allowed Suren to pull the silk threads with both hands at the same time. The two Strange Puppets were like gladiators on the field, fighting.

  One was shining with fiery red runes all over his body, spewing phosphorus fire;

  One spread its arms into a fan shape, cyan wind runes surging, and a vortex suction instantly formed...

  Testing first, everything is still normal.

  The small fire sprayed and was directly absorbed into the space in the Strange Puppet's stomach.

  However, as the amount of fire sprayed increased, the problem appeared.

  The 【Black Hole Doll】 absorbed the flames, and cracks suddenly appeared on its body due to high-temperature baking; moreover, the suction of its arms was not completely able to absorb the gradually increasing flames.

  "Clang".

  The Strange Puppet was overwhelmed and exploded.

  Suren frowned as he looked at the Strange Puppet fragments on the ground, and thought while dragging his chin.

  "The suction is not enough at all... If you encounter high-level spells, this swallowing capacity is not enough at all. The single 'Tier 2 Whirlwind Rune' cannot satisfy the positive all-round absorption coverage. Moreover, the flames will also burn the space, which requires very high material strength for the puppet."

  He thought, carefully recording a section of experimental notes in his notebook: "December 13, the first experimental test of the Black Hole Doll, failed. Tier 2 phosphorus fire, limb fragmentation occurred... Analyze the reason, the material strength is not up to standard, the defects are as follows..."

  However, one experiment did not dampen Suren's confidence.

  The small fire can be absorbed, which at least proves that his idea is feasible.

  He quickly thought of an improvement plan.

  "As for the strength of the puppet, high-level materials are not easy to find. However, the alchemical puppet left by 'Trickster' Lloyd before is of sufficient quality, and it is still a finished product, and it can meet the needs with a little modification. But the runes are a bit troublesome..."

  "For greater suction... you can try to modify the Strange Puppet's arms into a more complex spiral structure like a mechanical jet propulsion device. But the runes are the key. Compound runes can generate greater attraction, and the wind + thunder dual system should be good. It is best to make an 'energy recovery system' to directly turn the absorbed energy into the puppet's power..."

  Suren frowned when he thought of this.

  He suddenly realized that his knowledge reserves could not support his creativity.

  He is not very proficient in the rune problems himself, especially in the field of Tier 2 and Tier 3 high-level runes, and he has not stripped much experience before.

  He knows some, but it is far from enough to create rune combinations.

  But if he can't do it himself, he can ask for help.

  "It seems that I have to ask Mr. Black next time. He is proficient in all kinds of runes and should be able to help me solve this problem. The 【Thousand Threads】 implant should have been made long ago..."

  Thinking of this, Suren's tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed.

  He began to pack up the tools and materials in the bunker.

  He finally plans to go out.

  After digesting the materials, his tier is now stable.

  The key is that he has almost explored the space ability, so he is qualified to go out and "play".

  It has been more than half a month since he received outside news, but needless to say, there may be an extra "s" on his wanted warrant.

  It is estimated that the people who want to take his head to collect the reward can line up from Dawn City to Old Lindon.

  He was not qualified to "play" before.

  But now...

  Suren felt that it should be about the same.

  Although he is still a quasi-Tier 2, and has not even learned implantation and advanced skills.

  But ordinary Tier 2 professionals pose almost no threat to him.

  High skill, high agility, high perception...

  In a head-on confrontation, Suren's data can crush more than 90% of the same tier, even those veteran Tier 2s.

  Even when facing Tier 3 professionals, although he can't beat them, with the Black Scythe and the ability to teleport in space, he has a bit of confidence to escape...

  .......

  Suren packed up his things, then pinched his hands, and the warlock seal instantly formed.

  Like opening a door, he lifted his hand, and a space door appeared in front of him.

  He stepped out, and looking again, his figure was already outside the bunker.

  "Space Teleportation" requires a lot of dark spirit energy, and the further the distance, the amount consumed almost doubles.

  The more frequent the casting frequency, the more consumption will increase.

  But Suren now needs to practice the proficiency of space control in teleportation, so he is not stingy with dark spirit energy.

  Moreover, he has a huge advantage.

  That is, his dark spirit power is much more abundant than that of ordinary Tier 2 professionals.

  "X Serum" has transformed the body's tolerance to dark spirit power.

  This also means that not only Tier 1, but in each tier in the future, he will have a higher tolerance to dark spirit power than ordinary people, and his body can store and absorb more dark energy.

  Suren felt that the skill of space teleportation, which is "high blue consumption", would be stronger in his hands in the future.

  He took a few steps, and then teleported a few meters.

  He walked for a while, and then teleported a few meters.

  As long as the dark spirit energy in his body remains on a safe line, he will keep practicing.

  He wants to test the exact consumption of various teleportation situations...

  In order to accurately calculate every detail in future battles.

  If someone saw it, they would definitely be shocked, flashing in and out of the faint mist, like a ghost...

  .......

  After half a day, Suren avoided some wasteland reclamation groups and returned to the Dawn City camp.

  However, he was not in a hurry to go in, but hung upside down on a rock wall, looking down at everything in the city.

  The city has been renewed compared to half a month ago.

  Buildings and steam chimneys are towering, and they are far higher than the city walls. The wasteland reclamation members who come and go are densely packed, the streets are crowded with people, and the noise can be heard from a long distance...

  A prosperous and lively scene.

  Although it is very far away, Suren can still see clearly.

  The number of guards at the city gate is a team of thirty-five people, and the defense on the east side of the city wall is relatively weak. He can even clearly see that the number of the city guard whose eyes are focused at the moment is "Bs-2213" on the mechanical armor sprayed with white paint...

  In the past, it was absolutely impossible to see clearly with the naked eye at this distance.

  Suren's eyes reflected the traffic in the city, and he muttered, "The eyesight has been greatly improved, and the night vision ability and the resolution ability of high-frequency targets have also been strengthened. Sure enough, after advancing, the talent ability of 【All-Knowing Eye】 has also advanced."

  The talent ability of transcendents can become stronger with development and professional advancement.

  He had discovered the abnormality of his eyes on the way back to the camp.

  He encountered a mutated Lightning Eagle on the way back.

  The dive speed of this flying monster is faster than a bullet. When normal people see it catching prey, especially when the light is not good, it will be like a stuck frequency, flashing hundreds of meters...

  This is what is commonly called "physical teleportation".

  It is because the eyes capture the light image change shorter than the nerve reaction time, and a section of light image of visual capture is missing in the middle, so it looks like teleportation.

  But Suren found that his current eyesight could clearly capture the figure of the Lightning Eagle.

  This has a great impact on combat.

  To give an example.

  He used to avoid bullets by predicting the muzzle direction.

  But now, he can clearly capture the entire trajectory of the bullet, not just see the two moments of shooting and hitting.

  This is very useful in combat, especially against those melee professionals who can "physically teleport".

  Suren's current eyesight can even clearly capture every action detail of fast-moving targets, like a slow-motion replay. If you see the action clearly, you can predict and react in advance.

  He can fight and escape.

  However...

  The 【All-Knowing Eye】 ability has been strengthened a bit, but the 【Death Harvester】 seems to have not changed.

  Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of the second talent awakening that Qian Tiao had told him before.

  In the words of that gambling-addicted young woman, that is the real qualitative change.

  Thinking of this, he was also looking forward to what these two "S-level" talents would be like after the second awakening?

  But he didn't think too much about it, because the second awakening is a matter of chance.

  If you are often on the edge of life and death, the probability will be higher.

  Suren felt that normal people probably don't want to awaken any abilities in that way.

  Not long after, after observing the route to run away in case something happened, he walked towards the camp.

  .......

  Although Suren will not be distorted in a high dark spirit environment, he also needs to return to the city to buy some supplies. He also wants to contact Mr. Black to get his 【Thousand Threads】 alchemy implant and ask for some advice.

  Moreover, now that Suren has advanced to Tier 2, there are still two needs that have not been resolved, one is the mental power secret method, and the other is the spells of various space magics.

  The Dawn City ruins are very large, and it is impossible for him to find what he needs by himself.

  And the wasteland reclamation guild is a good place.

  Suren plans to go to the wasteland reclamation market in the city to see if there is anything he can pick up.

  If he doesn't encounter it, he will issue a reward for finding information on "space magic".

  The wasteland reclamation guild may be able to provide him with the information he needs.

  Maybe the omnipotent wasteland reclamation members have encountered that "Magician" Howard in other cursed spaces, or obtained some space magic through other channels.

  But before that, Suren has one more thing to do.

  He plans to find that black gang boss Shabina to "talk".

  When it comes to intelligence, who can know more than the intelligence officer of the Umbrella organization?

  He didn't have the confidence to beat her before, and he didn't have the confidence to escape after beating her, but now...

  He can avenge the sneak attack that night.

  What's more, Suren also plans to try whether the 【High-Level Succubus Acknowledgment Contract】 obtained in the cursed space is also useful for that woman...
