First kill?

In a spaceship near Jupiter every crewmember suddenly fell to the ground and started fidgeting everywhere. They let out agonizing screams as they were bleeding from all orfices "Damnit! They are already here!"

- With a final shockwave emitted, did the black cocoon slowly crack open letting an entirely new being out. It looked almost pale with black veins being seen all over its body. The little stalkers near him looked pitiful towards it. The emitted energy waves were so weak that it felt like those from a young Void Hatchling. With their parental instinct kicking in, they slowly approached the being...

That pale being was Mars after completely transforming into a Space Human and suffering the backslash.

... SENSING NEARBY VOID ENERGY ... WANT TO ABSORB IT? ...

The dark blue stalker eyes started glowing and emmited a black light that was gathering around Mars. 'Are they sacrificing themselves for me? Sure, do it.'

The Void Stalker swarm resided near Mars till they let out every ounce of energy they had. It was a refreshing and soothing feeling to absorb the peaceful energy that the Void beings let willingly go. Totally different from the radical radiation he used during his Adaptation.

One of the eyeballs suddenly flickered and stopped giving off light. It simply floated in space, motionless.

The Stalkers were seemingly unbothered by their dead brethren, still letting their energy flow out until every last one of them floated as a corpse in the cold universe dying a honorable death by saving one superior to them.

'This... was really strange... But how do I get back to the ship? I can't see it anywhere...'

... YOU ARE ABLE TO FLOAT IN SPACE USING YOUR ENERGY VEINS BUT IT IS SLOW BECAUSE OF YOUR DECREASED ENERGY OUTPUT ...

Description:

A young man that got drawn into a conflict he should not be in. His soul is already tainted. The black veins are a sign of the already miserable state he is in. He should begin praying as they are after him already.

After seeing the boost he got from the Adaptation he quickly forgot about the pain he felt and found it definitely worth it. But this moment of happiness quickly subsided as a large black portal opened just a few hundred meters away. A dark almost invisible claw emerged from the black space digging itself into the frame of the portal.

The being that came out arised to its full height, standing tall at at least 70m.

The monster slowly turned its head, looking right at Mars. His red eyes glowed with rage as he let out a defeaning roar that despite there being no sound, reached Mars's mind, shaking his entire body "Who dares to destroy our Scouts? I'll kill you!"

THEY ARE THE SHEPHERDS OF LOWER VOID BEINGS ... MOSTLY PASSIVE CREATURES BUT EASILY PROVOKABLE ... THEIR MENTAL SCREAMS CAN PARALIZE ENEMIES ... PROCEED WITH CAUTION ...

'So those Stalkers where his sheep? That is unfortunate...' Mars slowly raised his arms and held them over his head trying to show that he is non-threatening... But that didn't seem to work as the creature quickly approached him without any sign of slowing down. The scattered corpses around him didn't seem to help.

The next thing Mars saw was the giant fist that was flying towards him, filling out his entire view.

- BOOM - A shattering sound could be heard while Mars's body got immediately blown away, the measly stats and the Void Shield he had just gained where nothing in front of this Void Berserker.

Although Mars almost lost consciousness, he still hung onto it, since otherwise it would mean his death.

'System! Help me!'

'Put 20 in Resistence and 19 in Mental!'

Mars body got more resistant to the impact and the damage was also quickly repairing itself. If not for Energy Absorption weakening the force, he would have died then, not knowing what had happened, but he survived.

Mars stabilized his footing using the extra energy he just got and releasing it through his energy pores. At the same time he expanded his Mind Space to scout for his enemy. He had to trust his Skills as his senses were rather useless due to the enemies invisibility.

'There you are.' A confident smile could be seen on Mars's face as his Mind Force began circulating around his body. He felt powerful enough to defeat the enraged shepherd.

The Mind Force compressed itself into a sharp needle, that was able to penetrate everything and then got infused with Void Energy, turning it black.

'Let's go.'
