Everyone's playing Red Giant? I, Black Hole, devour everything!

System prompts popped up one after another in front of you.

Lin Tian was still somewhat dazed.

He didn't know what to say.

He didn't even know how he was feeling.

Everything happened too fast—well, actually not fast; the integration process may have taken several days, or even more than half a month.

He has lost his sense of time.

In his perception at that time, time seemed to be compressed into a single point.

He focused all his energy on maintaining frequency synchronization.

Now that I've suddenly relaxed, I feel completely exhausted.

But before he could even catch his breath, another, even grander announcement came.

[Universal Announcement! Universal Announcement!]

[Observer "Lin Tian" (from the Great Xia Kingdom) has successfully evolved into a quasar!]

[This is the first time in the 100-year history of Universe Online that an observer has observed a quasar-like object!]

[The will of the universe bestows upon Lin Tian the title of "Lord of Quasars"!]

The announcement was repeated three times in a row.

The golden words lingered before the eyes of every observer for a full ten seconds.

Then, the whole world went crazy.

"A quasar?! What's that?!"

"I don't know, but just seeing this name gives me a feeling of fear!!"

"Lin Tian? It's Lin Tian again? It's only been a few days and he's already triggered the cosmic will's announcement again?!"

"My God! The Universe Online database has been updated! Quasars... they're actually black holes with millions of times the mass of the Sun!"

"Holy crap??? Are you sure you didn't accidentally type an extra 'ten thousand'???"

"Check the Universe Online database yourself; it has the latest information!"

"I remember he used to have a little over 200,000, now it's more than five million... that's over twenty times more!"

"What the hell is that speed? Even a rocket couldn't go that fast!"

The class group chat at Lancheng High School was in complete chaos.

"Lin Tian is awesome!!! (voice cracks)"

"From black hole to quasar, how long has it been? A month? Has it even been a month?"

"I just checked the calendar, and Lin Tian is only a little over twenty-five years old from the time he awakened until now."

"Twenty-five days... When I was twenty-five days old, I hadn't even touched the threshold of a red superstar yet."

"You're comparing yourself to Boss Lin Tian? Don't you have some kind of misunderstanding about yourself?"

"By the way, what does Lin Tian's quasar look like? Has anyone been able to see it?"

"We can't see him. It seems he went to the 27th sector. We can't observe him across sectors."

"Sector 27? What's he doing there?"

The capital city of the Great Xia Kingdom.

In the conference room, everyone stood up at the same time.

No one speaks.

Because they didn't know what to say.

Quasars.

The first quasar in the century-long history of the universe online.

This title goes beyond what can be described as "genius".

The trajectory of the black hole already seemed incredible to them.

Quasars—this is practically rewriting the rules of the entire observer system.

"Mr. Chen, it's a call from the United States," the intelligence officer said quietly, handing over the communicator.

Old Chen did not answer.

"Leave it for now."

His voice was a little hoarse, but his tone was unusually calm.

"Let me catch my breath... let me rest for a bit."

……

Tokyo, the land of cherry blossoms.

Amaterasu-sha headquarters.

The president stared at the announcement on the screen and remained silent for a long time.

The surrounding officials all lowered their heads, none of them daring to speak first.

Lin Tian just removed thirty of their spies in the Seventh Star Sector.

Their general, Yamamoto Ryosuke, who was sent to hunt down Lin Tian, ​​was completely devoured, along with Xing.

And now, this young man, whom they considered a thorn in their side, has evolved into a quasar.

That's a quasar.

In the entire century-long history of the online universe, there is only one such entity.

"President, we..."

A middle-aged man spoke cautiously.

The president raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Let's...call...an emergency countermeasures meeting..."

For the first time, his voice revealed a hint of age.

……

The United States, the White Eagle Secret Service.

The S-level threat observation target profile has been updated again.

The combat strength index that was originally marked after Lin Tian's name has been crossed out.

It was replaced by a new line of text—

[Combat Strength Index: Unable to assess. The current state exceeds the scope of conventional combat strength assessment systems.]

[Threat Level Adjustment Recommendation: S+]

S+.

This has never happened before in the history of the White Hawk Secret Service.

……

At this moment, as the center of all this storm, Lin Tian had no mind to pay attention to the reactions from the outside world.

Because at the very moment the fusion was complete, he felt a sensation he had never experienced before.

Abundant.

My whole body was filled with an unprecedented sense of fullness.

This sense of fullness comes from the core of the primordial quasar.

A black hole with 5.38 million times the mass of the Sun has an accretion disk of a size that is unimaginable to ordinary people.

If this accretion disk were placed in the solar system, its diameter would be larger than the entire solar system.

The matter in the accretion disk is rotating at near the speed of light.

Temperatures have soared to trillions of degrees.

And how terrifying is the brightness released by such an accretion disk?

The Milky Way galaxy contains hundreds of billions of stars.

Even if you add up all 100 billion stars, their total brightness is still less than a fraction of that of primordial quasars.

This is just the brightness of the accretion disk alone.

If we add the relativistic jets at the poles, the total radiative power of primordial quasars reached a level that could only be expressed using scientific notation.

What would happen if this level of brightness were released without any obstruction?

The answer is that it will illuminate the entire 27th sector.

In fact, it's not just the 27th sector.

The sky over several surrounding star sectors will be illuminated by this light.

By then, the primordial quasar will no longer be a celestial body hidden in darkness.

It will become a cosmic beacon spanning several star sectors.

Everyone will see it.

Everyone will know about it.

Everyone will covet it.

However, he can disguise himself using gravitational lensing.

But Lin Tian did not intend to hide himself forever.

He has just completed the most difficult evolution in human history.

It would be too stifling to hide it like this.

Then, a thought struck him.

Gravitational lensing, deactivated.

That instant.

It was as if the Big Bang was being reenacted.

The light from the primordial quasars, like the first ray of light at the dawn of creation, surged out in all directions.

It has no obstacles.

The entire star field was empty, and nothing could block the extremely dazzling light.

Light travels outward at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second.

One second later, it illuminated a spherical space with a radius of 300,000 kilometers.

One minute later, it illuminated a spherical space with a radius of 18 million kilometers.

An hour later, it illuminated a spherical space with a radius of 1.8 billion kilometers.

……

In fact, to make his light spread even faster, Lin Tian did not hesitate to use the remaining 10 billion-year acceleration card.

That was the acceleration card he used after being interrupted by Yamamoto Ryosuke's neutron star fleet in the seventh star sector.

Now, there's just a little time left, which is perfect for accelerating.

In an instant, the dimensions of billions of years began to be compressed, and light traveled through the long river of time.

We have finally arrived at the inhabited area of ​​the 27th star sector.

The first to see the light were a mineral exploration team located on the edge of the 27th star sector.

Their star is suspended in a sparse nebula of matter, slowly absorbing the surrounding matter.

Then, the light came.

"Holy crap?! What is this thing?!"

"Is it dawn yet? Isn't this outer space?!"

"Holy crap! Holy ...
