Wandering Meteor-Chapter 247 - 246 Transformation of the Black Entropy Ball
Chapter 247: Chapter 246 Transformation of the Black Entropy Ball
Constant Star Haoxing was aware of the existence of the Entropy Beast, but had never slain one, nor did it know that upon death, an Entropy Beast would leave behind a Black Entropy Ball.
Therefore, when it saw the Black Entropy Ball flying towards it, Haoxing mistook it for some kind of conventional physical weapon used by the Wandering Alliance, and even couldn’t help but scoff in its mind.
What era is it now, still using physical heat weapons?
While looking down on it, Haoxing immediately fired a Crown Hole Radiation with a not-so-high Energy Level.
Although only a thousand kilometers thick, it was more than enough to destroy a few hundred meters thick Black Entropy Ball.
Thinking so, the Crown Hole Radiation knocked the Black Entropy Ball with precision, but the subsequent changes completely exceeded Constant Star Haoxing’s imagination.
Upon contact, the thousand-kilometer Crown Hole Radiation not only failed to destroy the Black Entropy Ball, but its energy was rapidly absorbed by the Black Entropy Ball.
The once brilliant Crown Hole Radiation dimmed little by little until it disappeared in space, and the Black Entropy Ball, having absorbed a large amount of energy, still appeared unchanged, its surface was just as pitch-black as before, and from a distance, it looked like a mini Black Hole.
It was then Constant Star Haoxing realized the power of the Black Entropy Ball and began to understand why the Wandering Alliance had gone to great lengths to drive him into this position. Although the Black Entropy Ball was clearly the trump card of the Wandering Alliance, Haoxing was very confident in its own combat strength and directly released a Gravity Wave, wishing to shatter the Black Entropy Ball to pieces.
However, a similar scene played out again.
The Gravity Wave struck the Black Entropy Ball, but it was like a stone that stirred up the sea, without any reaction at all.
This scene completely caught the attention of the Square Clan Civilization; they all couldn’t help but turn their gazes toward the Black Entropy Ball.
Constant Star Lu Chen, however, was not surprised at all; after all, the Black Entropy Ball had not been destroyed in the massive explosion of the Entropy Beast, so how could it be destroyed by a mere Gravity Wave?
After absorbing the Gravity Wave, the speed of the Black Entropy Ball seemed to get faster, and under the gravitational force between it and Constant Star Haoxing, it rapidly shot toward Haoxing.
Even though Constant Star Haoxing had relocated the moment it felt something was off, as a Constant Star with a Constant Star Mass of 28,000, Haoxing’s size was simply too large; even at its own high speed, it was still punctured by the Black Entropy Ball through its atmosphere.
The only stroke of luck was that the point where the Black Entropy Ball struck was merely the surface of the star.
Initially, Constant Star Haoxing was hoping that the atmosphere of the star, which was more than ten million degrees in temperature, would be enough to melt the Black Entropy Ball, but surprisingly, the Black Entropy Ball was extremely resilient and instead began to absorb the terrifying heat of the star’s atmosphere.
More terrifyingly, when the Black Entropy Ball punctured the atmosphere and came to the surface of the star, the speed at which it absorbed heat suddenly accelerated. One could see a massive amount of heat energy swirling towards the Black Entropy Ball like a huge gaseous vortex, and amidst absorbing the relentless high temperatures of the star, the hitherto unchanging Black Entropy Ball started to evolve, revealing its mysterious veil.
It was like a bashful girl who, unable to endure the heat of a sweltering summer day, finally lifted the black veil from her face.
After absorbing a vast amount of heat energy, the eternally pitch-black matter on the surface of the Black Entropy Ball began to grow more active, and the once compact sphere began to disperse. Cracks appeared on its surface, and a white shine emanated from the pitch-black cracks, full of mystery.
This scene was quite magical, far beyond the imagination of Constant Star Lu Chen.
He had not expected that even after absorbing so much heat energy, those pitch-black materials would not emit light, but only their movements would become more intense. This suggested that the black materials probably did not have electrons orbiting around them; otherwise, electrons absorbing energy and undergoing transitions would release photons accordingly, which would have been detected by them, that is to say, seen.
But that was not what was happening now.
The black materials remained unchanged, with light only emanating from the center of the Black Entropy Ball and not emitted by the black materials themselves.
Constant Star Lu Chen couldn’t help but think that this type of black material lacks electron orbitals and no ionization characteristics have been detected, which implies that their structure is different from ordinary atomic structures and is not like any known matter structure. Could this indeed be the Dark Matter predicted by scientists?
Because so far, the structure of Dark Matter is something the scientific community has yet to elucidate.
Of course, the term Dark Matter as predicted by the scientific community is a general term, not referring to a single type of matter. It is a term that scientists hypothesized when calculations of galaxy movements were found to be inconsistent with observed movements. After countless calculations, researchers surmised that an unobserved type of matter also plays a role in the gravitational interactions between galaxies, leading to deviations in their trajectories. Since the nature of this matter participating in galactic motion is still unknown, scientists colloquially refer to them as Dark Matter.
Meaning, they don’t partake in electromagnetic interactions, cannot be directly observed, and Dark Matter might be one kind, or there could be many kinds!
In fact, when studying the Black Entropy Ball, scientists from Earth Civilization had speculated that its surface could be a kind of Dark Matter, but there was no concrete evidence for this.
For example, how does the Black Entropy Ball absorb Dark Matter? How many types of Dark Matter are there? What is the structure of the Dark Matter on the surface of the Black Entropy Ball? What role does Dark Matter play in the Universe?
These questions were all unknown, thus, scientists could not confirm if this was indeed Dark Matter.
However, this time, as the Black Entropy Ball absorbed the heat energy of the star and showed its first change, scientists gained some experimental data, moving one step closer to the truth about Dark Matter.
......
As the Black Entropy Ball relentlessly absorbed the star’s heat energy, its own temperature soared crazily.
In an instant, the temperature of the Black Entropy Ball reached at least hundreds of millions of degrees, because scientists previously, when studying the Black Entropy Ball, had heated it to several million degrees and yet it underwent no changes, therefore to induce such change in the Black Entropy Ball, the temperature definitely had to be hundreds of times higher.
With so much of its heat energy absorbed by the Black Entropy Ball, even Constant Star Haoxing, with its Constant Star Mass of 28,000, underwent astounding changes.
A part of the originally blindingly bright Constant Star Body suddenly dimmed, and the darkened area quickly expanded outward.
From a distance, it looked like the dark spots emerging during the activity of a star.
Except that this time, the dark spot that formed was much larger than the black spots normally produced by star activity.
In just a short period, the dark spot had already spread to one-tenth of the Constant Star Body, making a tenth of Constant Star Haoxing appear pitch black, which was very eerie!
Many, including Constant Star Lu Chen, were seeing this phenomenon for the first time and were marveling at it.
"Damn it! What is this thing? It’s so freakish!"
However, at this moment, Constant Star Haoxing was far from as relaxed as those spectators.
He had been struck for only a moment, and such horrific changes had already occurred, and he couldn’t help feeling angry, anxious, and hateful!
