Alex flew at high speeds as he rushed towards the neutron star in the distance. It was on the verge of reaching critical mass to collapse.

    He could have shifted through space to arrive, but that would mean he missed the void creatures that were heading for the star system.

    As he reached an asteroid field the creatures were destroying, he unleashed some of his aura, instantly crushing the void creatures below Class C.

    What he wanted to deal with were the two S-Class void creatures he sensed the moment he arrived in the star system.

    ''They seem stronger than the ones I faced before.'' Alex noted with a frown. ''Were they increasing their strength all along? Doesn''t matter, I''ll find out eventually.''

    Before him was a line of Class A void creatures that rushed at him the moment he closed in. Not even sparing them a glance, Alex waved his right hand and instantly incinerated the creatures, leaving only their cores behind.

    And not even a second had passed by since Alex took flight. From a certain level, a hunter could speed up their reaction and be in a realm where everything else not on their level remained frozen.

    With a second stretched out, Alex came to a stop a few million kilometres away from the S Tier void creatures.

    The monsters were in their condensed forms and had complex shapes too disturbing and disgusting to describe. The creatures had what Alex deduced as smug smiles on their faces.

    ''I''m not sure what their abilities are, but it''s best to be safe than sorry.'' Alex thought as he coated his armour with his void energy.

    He also unleashed the full capacity of his void core as the black hole began drawing vast amounts of energy from his surroundings and beyond.

    It resulted in a phenomenon where his surrounding space for thousands of kilometres waved dangerously. Even then, the creatures did not flinch.

    With a final thrust imbued with his void energy, he exploded the void creature, grabbing its core and reappearing before the one he sent flying.

    The void creature was almost done dispelling the force of Alex''s kick when it noticed their target appear right behind it. Knowing its partner was likely done for, it decided to use its ability.

    Alex was about to thrust his spear into the creature when he felt a foreboding feeling he hadn''t felt before. Without delay, he withdrew his spear and distanced himself.

    At the same time, the void creature unleashed a dark smoke-like mist that spread at the speed of light. The mists felt ominous and disagreed with him.

    ''What the hell is this?'' Alex wondered as he freed his left hand and condensed the surrounding space, greatly slowing down the spreading mist.

    He tapped into his telekinetic powers as he gripped onto the void creature, ensuring it didn''t use the mist as cover to escape. It screeched and struggled to free itself but to no avail.

    With the creature in his grip, Alex floated towards the dark mists. It still gave off a foreboding feeling. Getting curious, he dipped the tip of his spear into the mist.

    There was no reaction with the spear, greatly puzzling him. ''This can''t be right?'' Alex doubted his eyes. ''I can still feel the foreboding feeling...''

    He turned back to the struggling creature and decided to put it out of its misery. Alex made a crushing gesture with his hand, the creature following the gesture as it was crushed under the weight of Alex''s ability. Your journey continues with My Virtual Library Empire

    The core that came out of the monster was a sinister-looking black core. It pulsed with the familiar energy of the void but there was something more. Something he couldn''t figure out just yet.

    As he was lost in thought trying to decipher the signature, Alex felt a pulse from behind. He had almost forgotten the Neutron Star.

    ''Shit!'' He cursed. ''There is still that to deal with.'' He quickly put the core away, this time putting it in a storage device before rushing towards the star.
