Chapter 399 Tempering
It is difficult to have an accurate concept of time in the world of psychic energy. Bai E, who was immersed in polishing his own psychic attributes, was completely unaware of the passage of time in the outside world.
It seemed that only in the next moment, the buzzing sound of "beep beep" sounded again not far away.
Along with it, there was the exclamation of the assistant lady, "Here it comes again!"
Bai E and Pan Sen came to the assistant lady's side almost at the same time. Pan Sen was the first to ask, "Where is it?"
After a moment of locking, the assistant lady reported the specific location, "F4."
"Go!"
"Hey hey hey~" The assistant lady, who was hung in the air by the neck, fluttered her limbs weakly, "Can you use a better posture next time..."
The voice gradually drifted away, and Bai E followed closely behind, flipping over the railing and following.
It was still a 4*4 square formation. Bai E, who rushed to the scene, learned his lesson this time and did not open his spiritual senses at the first time.
The "search" psychic energy spread throughout the space did not miss any detailed location. It seemed that the "virtual world" that was hiding in the corner and secretly absorbing computing resources because of the last shock was naturally nowhere to hide.
"Found it!"
Locked on the target again, this time Panson seemed much more careful.
Bai'e, who was watching from a distance with his psychic senses, could clearly find that Panson's "net-casting" speed had slowed down a lot this time. He seemed more careful when using psychic energy to "capture" the virtual world, so the extension of those tentacles was slowed down to a speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye.
He would rather spend more thoughts and psychic energy, but he must ensure that there would be no mistakes.
Bai'e easily guessed his thoughts.
At this moment, he didn't know whether to bless or pray for failure.
If Panson successfully captured this virtual world and brought it under his control, Bai'e could not find any possibility of seizing that virtual world except taking a huge risk to secretly kill and rob.
It's another matter if he can't win in a one-on-one fight, not to mention that it's even difficult to attack "secretly". Once exposed, he will be the enemy of the whole city.
The risk of taking a thing for which he doesn't know its function is too great, Bai'e is almost sure that he doesn't want to go that far.
And if Pansen fails... what even a third-level psychic can't capture, how can he get his hands on it?
The chaotic future is unclear in front of him, and even expectations cannot be determined.
However, the facts will not change because of Bai'e's thoughts, Pansen failed again...
In just a moment, the black mirror that absorbs everything escaped into the void again and disappeared.
Bai'e immediately retracted his spiritual senses, but Pansen in reality also froze in place, and he didn't know what happened.
Only when Bai E followed the minister and approached Pan Sen, did he hear him whispering, "I didn't make a mistake..."
"I didn't make a mistake..."
"What's the problem?"
"Why did it run away again..."
"Sir, it...ran away?" Minister Eric didn't dare to anger Pan Sen, and he couldn't see what was happening in the psychic world. At this moment, he was not sure what happened, so he just asked in a low voice.
Pan Sen uttered a word from his throat, "Yeah."
The atmosphere was slightly silent, and another failure was undoubtedly a blow to everyone.
"Sir..." Bai E looked at the time and spoke cautiously, "Maybe it's because...it's full?"
According to the previous log records, it only takes two or three minutes to steal the virtual world that "eats" every once in a while.
And the total time of Pan Sen's two captures just now has been more than 4 minutes. The "food" stolen from the virtual world is enough to replenish its consumption, so it naturally retreats.
"Full..." The assistant's eyes lit up, "Yes! Full."
"We have read the logs. Even if we cannot detect it, it will leave within two or three minutes of its appearance. It only needs so much computing power resources. If it exceeds the time, it will leave."
"Full..." Pan Sen muttered this word with his eyes half closed.
Failure is not terrible, but finding the cause is important.
Since it is determined that it is not your problem, then just solve the problem.
The problem is... Will the virtual world "fell" in a short time after it appears?
So it is necessary to complete the entire net in a short time before the other party "fells".
What needs to be tested is undoubtedly your meticulous control over the weaving of psychic energy.
There is relevant content in their daily training of psychics, and they have covered the strength, toughness, enlargement, reduction and other contents of psychic energy.
But any training has a standard...or the problem of accuracy.
The requirements during training are completely different from the accuracy of capturing the virtual world today. If you want to complete the net casting quickly and well, I am afraid that you will have to practice a lot of high-intensity exercises.
'Trouble...'
Pan Sen sighed in his heart.
But… who can become a strong person without going through countless boring and repetitive training and a lot of actual combat?
His only worry was that during his repeated attempts, he would scare away the "virtual world".
Whether the "virtual world" has a will similar to that of a human is still a matter of debate. If it is a human-like thinking, it will naturally look for other ways out after encountering the risk of being captured twice.
But the "virtual world" is derived from the same source as the Internet after all, and is essentially just a standardized response to changes in external information.
All its responses are pre-input, with limited changes, and it cannot create something out of nothing.
As long as the other party acts according to the most basic logic like a simple robot - come to steal food when hungry, and leave temporarily when full or frightened, it will be caught sooner or later!
Panson, who had sorted out his mood, turned around suddenly and walked towards the center console again, "Continue!"
"My lord... this way."
"Oh~"
...
Panson sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing.
Bai'e stood there, but his eyes were straight.
The assistant's eyes turned back and forth between the two, and she always felt that the two looked weird.
Although she didn't understand the cultivation of the psychic master, she had heard of it to some extent.
But Bai'e...why is it that even though he is standing here, his soul seems to be wandering in the sky?
"Hey~" The assistant lady waved her hands in front of Bai'e's eyes, "What are you thinking about?"
"Baji, Baji~"
Blinking twice, Bai'e showed a standard smile on his face, "Thinking about something."
"Really?"
The assistant lady leaned close to Bai'e's chin and looked up at Bai'e's eyes, "But you don't seem to be looking at me?"
The eyes turned stiffly, looking directly at the assistant lady below, and Bai'e's voice sounded calmly word by word, "Now?"
"..."The assistant lady hugged her arms with both hands, feeling a sincere chill climbing up from her tailbone.
The movement of Bai'e's eyes was like those well-made puppets, stiff and rigid.
Although his eyes turned to himself, there was no light in his pupils.
"Anything else?" Bai'e asked again.
It was really uncomfortable to do three things at once. Even with the existence of a mechanical mind, it slowed down his progress in tempering his own spiritual power.
If possible, he hoped to dispel the curiosity of this young lady as soon as possible.
"No... It's okay."
Hearing the voice that was so calm that it was almost cold, the assistant lady gave up the idea of continuing to explore.
Changed... Everything changed...
'Maybe this is a rejection... Woo woo woo~'
The ear twitched slightly, and Panson withdrew the spiritual power that was specially strengthened for hearing.
For some reason, his spiritual sense always felt a kind of hidden threat, which was close at hand.
Around him, it seemed that there was always another source that could disturb the spiritual power.
But when his "exploration" spiritual power was released, he never found any abnormality, which meant that the other party could always avoid his spiritual power.
If there is such a "person", then the other party must be very good at hiding and disguising.
The most likely suspect is the warrior who created many miracles...the captain of the special team-the artificial Bai Er.
Observation always has traces to follow. If the other party deliberately bypasses the dimension of spiritual power to "observe" himself, then use another form to monitor everything around him.
Psychic energy will be detected by the other party and deliberately avoided, so use the most primitive way to monitor everything.
Ears... eyes... this is the biggest source of information for humans.
However...
The clear conversation between Captain Bai and the minister's assistant, who gave me a strange feeling, came into my ears. Minister Eric has known each other for many years, and there are only three people close to him.
A little further away are the original guards of the base, and the information department technicians who came with them to maintain the host group.
No abnormality.
Is it... really an illusion?
The greatly enhanced psychic energy in a short period of time makes me sensitive. Is it that the profound and dark super-level space is trying to make my character more "suspicious"?
Psychics always have to be wary of whispers from high-dimensional space. This is a battle that every psychic needs to face throughout his life.
"Maybe... it's really just my illusion."
Pansen sighed lightly, put down the uneasiness in his heart, and completely immersed his mind in his own psychic world.

Time passed by in an unknown amount, Bai'e occasionally distracted himself and manipulated his body like a mecha, but until the end, he only waited for the careful inquiry from Minister Eric in the distance.
"My lord... how about we go to rest first?"
Pan Sen, with slightly tired eyes, slowly opened his eyes and looked at Minister Eric, who was concerned in front of him, "What's wrong?"
"It's getting late... hurry up."
They arrived at this base at around five in the morning, and since six in the morning, they have been tracking the traces of the "virtual world" in front of this central console. Until now, they have been concentrating for nearly eighteen hours.
Even if they only maintained the lowest level of mental attention, he and the assistant lady were almost at their limit. Waves of sleepiness could not stop coming, and they just wanted to lie down on the soft big bed and sink into the quilt.
"...It's one o'clock." Pan Sen, with a few bloodshot eyes in his eyes, shook his head, "You go and rest, I will continue to wait here."
Each time the virtual world appears, it lasts only a few minutes. If he goes to the rest area to rest, even if he gets the news as soon as the virtual world appears, he may not have much time left by the time he rushes over. He cannot accept.
"But sir...it's of no use to continue waiting here." Minister Eric also looked through the log records. "According to previous experience, that thing will not appear again until at least tomorrow morning."
The current experience gained is not enough for everyone to accurately judge the specific time when the virtual world appeared, but there is no problem in giving a rough time range.
After stabilizing, the virtual world basically appears once a day.
Today is because we are here for the first time, and something special happened that the assistant lady is not sure about or dare to explain, so everyone has to wait until now.
Otherwise, when they naturally escape from the virtual world after "eating" for the second time, she will advise everyone to rest first.
"...Sir, please go back and rest first."
"No need." Pan Sen waved his hand directly without moving his body, "You go and have a rest, I'll watch here..."
Even if the virtual world won't appear for a while, Pan Sen doesn't plan to take a rest.
The fewer opportunities for the virtual world to react, the better. Naturally, he must hone his psychic abilities to the point where he can control them carefully in the shortest possible time.
The virtual world is an unknown to humans, and he must first ensure that his preparations are foolproof.
"However, I don't know how to operate this instrument..."
Let Minister Eric and the assistant lady go to rest. If the virtual world suddenly appears, Pan Sen does not want to lose that rare opportunity.
During the day's waiting time, Minister Eric has become almost familiar with the functions of the entire central console by asking the assistant lady. Now, these two people are the only two people in this base who can quickly determine the location of the appearance after appearing in the virtual world. people.
"We can rest separately..." Minister Eric reacted quickly, looked at the assistant lady aside and said proactively: "Aryan, you go to rest first, I will hold on for a while."
"No need." Bai'e, who had been watching silently, suddenly said, "Minister, Aryan, you all go to rest, I am here."
As he spoke, Bai E looked at Pan Sen again, his eyes firm and steady, "Sir, I can."
"You?" Pan Sen was a little confused.
"Captain Bai is also very knowledgeable in technology. If he says he can do it, he will definitely do it."
Seeing Bai E take the initiative, Minister Eric stood up and endorsed it immediately, and then turned to look at Bai E, "But you are also very tired."
"It's okay." Bai E shook his head, "We soldiers have better energy than you."
"That's right..." Eric yawned widely, "Then I'll leave this place to you. Let's go and rest first. Let's go, Aryan."
