Chapter 10: Black Hole Generator

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“I have a special item here. I want to trade it for 10 pieces of toast!”

“What special item is it? What use does it have?”

“It’s a black hole generator. This thing can create a small black hole. If I didn’t need food to survive, there’s no way I would be trading this out.”

“Black Hole Generator?”

Grimm thought for a moment. He felt that this thing could be used as a trump card when facing a powerful enemy. It could directly suck the opponent into a small black hole. This kind of move was definitely beyond one’s expectations.

[ Cheaper. ]

After thinking for a while, Grimm replied with a message.

[ You definitely won’t be at a loss exchanging ten pieces of toast for something this good! ]

[ Five pieces of toast. Have a think about it. The price of food right now is much higher than you think!” ]

Grimm smiled. Of course, he knew that he wouldn’t be at a loss. But what was the situation now? Now was the time when all the players were in a shortage of food.

No matter how good the other items were, they were meaningless. When faced with the desperate situation of dying of thirst and starvation, only food and fresh water were the most precious resources.

Moreover, Grimm believed that if this person tried to sell this thing to someone else, they would probably not even be able to provide two or three pieces of toast.

Seeing Grimm’s message, the person was silent for quite a while before reluctantly replying a message.

[ Let’s both compromise a little. How about eight? I absolutely cannot accept any lower! ]

[ Eight. Alright, I’ll give you some extra benefits! ]

Despite saying this, Grimm knew that the value of this black hole generator was definitely more than eight pieces of bread.

A while later, even a hundred loaves of bread wouldn’t be able to exchange for such a special item.

Grimm quickly sent the transaction content to the other party. In the next moment, he received a transaction notification.

[ “Transaction successful. Obtained: Small Black Hole Generator X 1.”]

Grimm took out the item he had traded and discovered that it was a metal object that looked like a land mine.

Above this metal object, there was a button. It seemed that if he pressed the button, this small black hole generator would be activated.

He checked the description.

[ Small black hole generator ]

[ Description: 60 seconds after pressing the button, the black hole generator will explode and produce an extremely small black hoIe. It will suck all objects within a radius of 1 kilometer into the black hole and completely shatter them. ]

Grimm scratched his head. This thing seemed to be a little dangerous.

The damage radius was one kilometer. In other words, he had to escape from the one-kilometer radius within 60 seconds of activating it. Otherwise, he would be sucked into the black hole alive.

It seemed that using this thing was quite a test of skill.

Grimm carefully put away the small black hole generator and continued to check the private messages sent by the players.

The next private message was actually not about a deal.

[ “I am the captain of the Cosmic King team. You have developed well. Do you want to join our team to grow together?” ]

Grimm rejected the invitation without hesitation.

[ “I don’t need that. Thank you.”]

[ “Wait! There are more than ten people in our team now. As long as you are willing to join our team, I can consider giving you resources. Such opportunities are rare!” ]

[ “No need, thank you!” ]

[ “Hey! Think carefully. In this world, you’re either an ally or an enemy. It’s better to form an alliance than to make enemies!” ]

Grimm smiled coldly.

Not to mention other things, just with his 100 times amplification system, he was not afraid of any opponent. If they wanted to fight, they could bring it on?

He wasn’t afraid at all!

[ “I’m telling you again clearly, I don’t need to form an alliance. If you want to swallow me, go ahead. I’ll play with you at any time!”]

[ “F*ck! You just don’t know what’s good for you!” ]

The other side was obviously going to scold him, but Grimm didn’t wait for him to continue sending messages and closed the private message interface.

Sorry, he didn’t have time to argue with this so-called team leader. There were still many private messages waiting for him to browse.

Grimm continued to check the private messages, but most of them were using some rare materials to trade for his bread. After working for more than an hour, 100 pieces of toast were sold out, and he only got a small black hole generator as a special item.

However, it was good to have a harvest.

Grimm closed the last private message and posted a message in the communication center.

[ The bread has been sold out. Do not disturb me with messages! ]

The players were disappointed when they saw this message.

[ It can’t be. I sent a private message asking for a trade a long time ago. Yet, I was still one step too late! ]

[ Food, food, I’m going to starve again today! ]

[ “I’m slow and I’m going to starve. Mayday, Mayday!” ]

[“Boss, is there any more food?”]

…

Grimm didn’t pay attention to the everyone’s messages.

In such an environment, the strong will survive and the weak will perish.

These players were still sending messages, which meant that they were at least alive. According to his estimation, at least 10% of the players in this world had already died silently.

And this was only the beginning!

There was nothing to do for the time being, and the energy of the spaceship was not enough for Grimm to build anything else.

He came to the hibernation cabin and prepared to have a good rest. When the energy was released tomorrow, he would first make some poison slurry bombs.

…

Two hours later, Grimm was still sleeping soundly in the hibernation cabin. On the other side, Charles laughed excitedly.

He held the ID locator tightly in his hand. He looked at the small dot on the display and estimated the time when the two of them would meet.

“Less than 24 hours!”

Originally, Charles thought that he would have to chase for a few more days, but Grimm’s spaceship actually changed direction and approached his position.

The target, which would have taken a few days to catch up to, now displayed on the ID locator that the time was less than 24 hours.

Moreover, this was under the condition that Grimm did not continue to approach.

“I need to make some preparations!”

Charles quickly made some metal shells. His firepower was now fierce enough. In addition to the two ship cannons, he also installed a cannon fort.

Although the cannon fort’s firepower was not great, the advantage was that the attack frequency was higher. Moreover, when shooting, it did not consume the spaceship’s energy.

In less than half an hour, Charles had made more than a dozen shells.

“Now it seems that the odds of winning are a bit higher.”

Just as he was proudly rubbing his stubble, suddenly, the spaceship issued a warning.

[ Warning: The spaceship has been locked on by an unknown radar! ]

“What?”

Charles looked around in confusion, but his radar could only confirm that the spaceship was locked on, but it could not find the other party’s location.

“Could it be that we’ve already met?”

Charles was a little puzzled.

According to the current situation, Grimm’s spaceship was equipped with a more powerful radar, but this did not make sense!

…

Grimm was sleeping soundly in the hibernation cabin when he suddenly felt waves of warning vibrations.

[ Warning: unknown spaceship is approaching! ]

“What?”

Grimm woke up in an instant and immediately left the hibernation cabin to check.

On the display, the radar scan showed a small flashing light. It was a spaceship, and it was approaching in his direction.

“Got to get ready for battle!”
