Huang Hao arrived at Mu Continent and, following the designated meeting place, found the three people who had come.
"Kevin, Hen, Cosmo?"
Huang Hao looked at the three of them with a strange expression.
Hen said, "What, you're unhappy that we came?"
Huang Hao said awkwardly, "It's not a matter of being happy or unhappy. It's just that this is exactly the same as what I predicted..."
Cosmo cut in, "Isn't that just perfect? It means we have a chance to prepare for the next step."
Huang Hao was speechless. He had already issued such a serious warning, yet things were still the same as before. No, they had happened even earlier.
After all, there had been many people before as well. It was just that these few were the main combat forces.
Thinking this, Huang Hao asked again, "Let's not talk about the prediction yet. Let me ask first—have you discovered anything unusual?"
Kevin came over from the side and said, "According to the Honkai Energy detection report, although it's slightly higher than in other places, it's still within normal levels. Your prophecy wasn't wrong, was it?"
With a heavy expression, Huang Hao opened a device while asking Kevin, "Whether my prophecy was right or wrong can wait. Do you know Einstein's communication method? I want to ask him where his teleportation gate is."
Kevin waved his hand. "Ask the commander or Mobius. They might know."
Huang Hao asked again, "Are there any of his communication devices or machines nearby?"
Cosmo said, "If there were, would you still need to look for them?"
Huang Hao sighed. "When I tell a lie, no one believes me. When I tell the truth, no one believes me either. Is there any use in deceiving yourself?"
Kevin asked, "What do you mean?"
"You, send your girlfriend a message. A major battle is about to begin. Look at the fire in my hand—it's practically boiling over." Huang Hao raised his right hand and looked at the black-and-red flames gushing from it.
Kevin blushed and said, "Mei, Mei isn't my girlfriend!"
Huang Hao smiled. "Did I say Mei? Someone with a body temperature of negative thirty degrees Celsius can actually blush."
"You..."
Ignoring Kevin's angry curses, Huang Hao turned to Hen and Cosmo, who were chatting idly. "Friends, this is our first meeting, so please forgive my rudeness. But we really should get moving."
"We've already done our best to set up defensive measures."
Looking at the clouds gradually darkening, Huang Hao said thoughtfully, "Tell me, what kind of defense can escape a black hole?"
At that moment, the machine monitoring the Honkai let out an alarm. The Honkai was increasing beyond the limit.
Huang Hao sneered. "Heh. It's here."
A black hole appeared where the Honkai Energy was rising rapidly. Although it was very small, it expanded at an incredible speed, and the space around it began to twist.
Hen stared at the black hole nervously. "The prophecy came true, but what is this?"
Huang Hao immediately answered, "This? I told you about it too. Hurry and have them activate the teleportation gate!"
"What is a teleportation gate?"
"Who cares what it is? Just tell them!" Huang Hao finished speaking and immediately charged toward the black hole.
Huang Hao arrived in front of the black hole, took out his flames, and condensed them into a cannon. He shouted, "So you're a Quasi Black Hole? I'll blow you to pieces!"
Huang Hao unleashed all his strength. The cannon fired in a straight line, striking the Quasi Black Hole. The black hole seemed to tremble as though it were about to break apart, but it continued expanding.
Just as Huang Hao was anxiously wondering why he couldn't destroy the black hole, Kevin charged up with Skyfire in hand.
Huang Hao cursed angrily, "What are you doing here? Weren't you supposed to scatter the people nearby?"
Kevin cursed back, "I'm a warrior too, not your tool. The people nearby have already been evacuated. I'm here to fight with you."
He then raised Skyfire high and shouted, "Skyfire, Unleashed!"
An immensely powerful flame burst forth. It merged with the flames Huang Hao had fired and suppressed the Quasi Black Hole.
Looking at the suppressed black hole, Huang Hao excitedly put an arm around Kevin. "Amazing! That shout just now was so cool. I want to—I'm freezing! What the hell!"
Before he could finish speaking, Huang Hao jumped aside after being frozen by the cold.
Kevin looked at Huang Hao helplessly. "That's not the important part. Before the Herrscher appears, we need to make preparations in advance for the sake of your future prophecy."
Huang Hao rolled his eyes. "Make preparations in advance? If we could really prepare beforehand, we wouldn't be in such trouble dealing with the black hole."
Kevin said, "Uh, that's true. But didn't you say this black hole would destroy the entire continent? It seems far too weak."
Huang Hao said, "Weak? Clearly, I'm just too strong."
Hen and Cosmo came over as well and asked, "We've evacuated the civilians. What do we do next?"
Kevin said, "We don't know yet, but such massive destruction will definitely bring a Herrscher. We need to stay on high alert."
Hearing Kevin say that the black hole was weak, Huang Hao also began to think. That is indeed the case. This black hole isn't strong. Just now, I only used the flames given to me by the Imaginary Tree and the enhancement given to me by the Fusion Warriors. I didn't use any of my own power at all. But why is that?
Huang Hao suddenly remembered that, in the manga, the continent had indeed been damaged, but it had not been torn apart like Blackie. Most of the buildings had simply disappeared.
Huang Hao suddenly raised his head. "This is bad! Hurry and bring all the civilians underground!"
Kevin, Hen, and Cosmo asked, "What?"
Huang Hao said nervously, "There's no time to explain! Hurry!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a tremendous force of gravity pressed down...
