Star Ocean: Starting From the Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 142: Emergency at the Pirate Space Station

"Tsk."

The voice of Huihuang reached Chen Ming's ears through the remaining communication device of the Clone Research Institute.

Chen Ming looked forced to put down the tool in his hand against the door in front of him, and said: "Nothing."

Then he turned around and walked away, his eyes swept across the extremely harsh environment around him, opened his mouth, but said nothing.

Huihuang did not ask any more questions.

Obviously, the senior executives of Yuhui behind it also knew that there would be no answer just asking, so they let Chen Ming leave the institute full of dried flesh and blood.

Chen Ming soon came to the exit of the passage.

At this time, the outside of the passage was completely surrounded by Yuhui's fleet and a large number of robots.

However, these robots and the spacecraft hovering in the sky and landing on the ground did not have any special reaction to Chen Ming's arrival.

Until Chen Ming returned to the Buffalo class parked at the exit of the Clone Research Institute.

Those robots entered the Clone Research Institute in batches, and it seemed that they had no intention of investigating Chen Ming's previous actions to stop them.

Chen Ming was about to ask Huihuang Yuhui what he thought.

Huihuang explained to him directly: "Our top management has reached a consensus, that is, don't make trouble."

"Anything that does not interfere with the normal operation of the Qiling Neural Extractor can be ignored, just wait for the day when the Qiling Neural Extractor is activated."

"And you didn't question us just now that there would be such psychic creatures born underground, so our top management thinks it's best for them to cooperate with you."

"You don't care about clones and psychic creatures born from clones, and we don't care if you suddenly enter the institute to stop us from rescuing."

"There will probably be no follow-up to this matter."

"Okay."

Yu Hui saw his hint, and the delicate situation that the two sides had maintained successfully continued.

I just don't know if this is good news or bad news for Chen Ming, it should be both.

Chen Ming thought about it, and Yu Hui's attitude and the situation he showed at the moment are indeed both good and bad.

The good thing is that Chen Ming doesn't have to waste words and energy with Yu Hui, and can concentrate on what he has to do next.

But the bad thing is that Yu Hui's cultivation of their new spiritual awakening nerve should have reached the final stage.

Otherwise, they would not have to completely eliminate the interference of other things and wait for that day to come.

So, he had to be faster.

Chen Ming controlled the Buffalo to take off and avoided the engineering ships of various models.

However, Chen Ming suddenly became uncertain about where he should go next.

Although the distorted flesh and blood were dead, there were no strange things in the cloning institute, and the institute on the surface should be safe.

But he was not sure whether Yu Hui's future work underground would affect the ground.

So Chen Ming directly asked Huihuang, who had connected to the Buffalo-class communication channel just after he left the institute, "So where should I go next?"

Huanghuang replied to Chen Ming with a slight delay: "Mr. Chen Ming, please go back to the institute directly."

Chen Ming immediately turned the bow of the Buffalo-class and asked in a puzzled manner: "Huh? Will the underground institute have any impact on the institute on the surface?"

"No, you have already dealt with the biggest trouble."

"But I mean you."

Huanghuang was choked by Chen Ming, but still said patiently: "We will not damage the underground structure, please rest assured."

"That's good."

Chen Ming drove the Buffalo-class back to the institute.

At this time, an engineering ship happened to take off and leave next to the institute.

Only the dome that had been repaired for the second time was left.

Chen Ming quickly got off the spaceship, walked into the institute, found a chair in the living area and sat down, took out the terminal and clicked on a document.

In the process, he was actually checking the situation of the cloning institute through the underground monitoring.

Before, Chen Ming took advantage of the time when the last spiritual energy fluctuations had not completely dissipated and the signal was still blocked. In addition to dismantling several doors, he also took control of the remaining systems of the Clone Institute.

Although most of the equipment in the entire Clone Institute was damaged, there was always a little monitoring that was still in operation.

Otherwise, Chen Ming could not have just happened to be in the field of vision of the few remaining monitoring devices and stood at the door of the room where the Spiritual Awakening Nerve Extractor was placed when they were just started.

As long as Yu Hui did not completely replace the entire system but chose to repair it, Chen Ming could continue to control the equipment of the Clone Institute.

Of course, this requires Chen Ming's mental power to maintain it. He can choose to disconnect it at any time, which does not affect his usual control of the spacecraft.

Because after Chen Ming's coma caused by Yu Hui extracting the Spiritual Awakening Nerve ended, the number of controllable spacecrafts increased directly from 4 to 10.

The mental power that can control ten destroyers and the remaining equipment of a research institute does not feel any pressure at all.

And this is before Chen Ming has adapted to the spiritual power that has been enhanced by swallowing a spiritual nerve.

Now, Chen Ming has adapted, so the number of ships he can currently control is 3.

Although the number has become smaller, the meaning of this number is different.

According to Chen Ming's research, this number is calculated based on the maximum limit that his total mental power can control.

In other words, this 3 means that Chen Ming can now control three cruisers.

And the total mental power that can control three cruisers can at least control more than 30 destroyers.

The difference between destroyers and frigates is not big, so there was no such obvious change when Chen Ming was able to control destroyers for the first time.

But compared with cruisers and destroyers, that is a qualitative change.

And Chen Ming's mental power has also undergone a qualitative change from being able to control destroyers to being able to control cruisers.

So now his panel has new changes.

In short, Chen Ming now has a lot of mental power that can be divided and used for some other things.

For example, control the Qiling Nerve Extractor, control various equipment in the institute, and control the equipment in the clone institute.

Monitor what Yuhui is doing without being discovered by any Yuhui.

Yuhui has already moved the Qiling Nerve Extractor, and it should be sent to another place for inspection or something.

Then the remaining robots are dealing with the ruins of the institute, and sending away all the dried flesh and blood inside.

Maybe it will be taken for research, or just simply processed.

The specific method depends on whether Yuhui is brave enough.

At present, except for the Qiling Nerve Extractor, Chen Ming can't see anything else that needs his special attention.

So he chose to project the monitoring screen in a corner of his field of vision and put it there.

He now plans to contact the boss again.

One is to continue the previous conversation, and the other is that Chen Ming wants to ask the boss about the amber.

Chen Ming saw the name of amber the first time he got on the spaceship just now.

【Condensed Spiritual Energy Origin (Chen Ming)】

This was something he had never expected, his name appeared on such a thing.

However, Chen Ming was only slightly surprised, after all, this thing was influenced by the ship spirit, and the ship spirit was born from him, so it was not unreasonable to have his name.

And following the naming idea of ​​condensing the spiritual energy origin, the original name of this thing should be 【Condensed Spiritual Energy Origin (Deformed Flesh and Blood)】, or some other similar name.

Just looking at the name, this thing seems to reflect the essence of a person's spiritual energy.

The fact that it can help Chen Ming enter the consciousness space does confirm its effect to a certain extent.

But after all, it was not made by Chen Ming himself, but something condensed from the body of deformed flesh and blood and transformed by the ship spirit.

It is said to be his spiritual energy origin, but he always feels a little strange.

Anyway, Chen Ming couldn't figure it out, and at this time he didn't have the knowledge that naturally grew out of his mind when he sensed the appearance of the ship spirit before.

Besides, although amber is a good thing, the source is still deformed flesh and blood anyway, so he'd better ask the boss.

Soon the boss suddenly found that the terminal beside him suddenly vibrated.

He picked up the terminal and took a look and said, "Xiao Ming, are you still alive?"

Chen Ming suddenly recalled and said, "I feel like I have heard this question many times."

The boss said casually, "Who made you always encounter dangerous things. So... what happened? That thing just now."

"It's okay. If I didn't need to take the boat spirit there personally, it might be easier to handle. Or, it's not something I should handle."

"Try to meet the needs of the boat spirit. It may save lives in the future."

The boss helped Chen Ming find an excuse, and then asked, "You should have looked at the thing in the crack just now, right?"

"Yes."

"What happened?"

"?"

Chen Ming asked in confusion: "Didn't you tell me not to look before? Don't you know?"

The boss explained: "I know what it is, but I want to know what you encountered, this is important."

"Okay. I seem to have entered my consciousness space."

"Consciousness space?"

The boss thought for a while and said: "Oh, I think I understand."

"If the battle between psychics is forcibly dragged into such a place, it means that the heart seems to be a little afraid of your ability, and it wants to gamble with you by using this method."

"But it seems that it lost. I won't ask you about the specific image of your 'consciousness space', and don't tell it out, it is very important for a psychic."

"I'm not stupid."

"I know you're not stupid, but I have to explain what I have to say."

"Anyway, you were suddenly kicked out of the consciousness space when you won in the end, right?"

Chen Ming affirmed: "Yes, after I came out, I completely killed the heart guy."

"Not bad, an auxiliary psychic, who can beat a thing that obviously has multiple abilities, you have already entered the door of being a psychic."

Chen Ming heard the key words in his boss's words and immediately asked: "Entering? What does it mean to enter the door? Don't tell me that you can only enter the door after you have beaten this kind of thing."

"How is it possible? You just need to know that auxiliary psychics and protective psychics are not incapable of combat. It's considered an entry."

"I won't say more about psychic power, so as not to affect your development, but I can tell you one thing."

"You will The direction of development for a period of time, you can make it your goal to enter this consciousness space again. "

"When you can really enter, I can tell you everything about psychic energy and various systematic regulations."

Chen Ming reached out and touched the box in his arms, hesitated and said: "Actually... I can already enter."

"Impossible."

The boss subconsciously refuted Chen Ming and said: "If a psychic can enter the 'consciousness space' you mentioned by himself, he must have a comprehensive understanding of his own psychic energy."

"That is to say, the potential has been fully tapped, and the rest is to continue to train, and the limit of the ability can be seen."

"But your psychic energy has reached its upper limit? Shouldn't it be?"

Chen Ming's psychic energy must not have been developed to its upper limit.

"It's just that I used a little external force."

"What external force?"

"After I killed the heart, I got something from its body."

Chen Ming sent the footage that was automatically shot by the video equipment of the power armor after the previous battle to the boss.

From the moment he picked up the amber with a miniature heart inside to the moment the amber was possessed by the ship spirit and finally the heart in the amber was replaced by a mini spaceship, the whole process was clearly visible.

The boss watched it silently and said, "I've never heard of such a thing. I have to ask to confirm it."

"Okay."

Chen Ming responded and said to the boss, "Actually, just now, when I was pulled into the consciousness space by the crack in the heart, I felt a sense of danger in the consciousness space."

"It's somewhere around my consciousness space, and it may find me at any time."

"Tell me more about it."

"I can't tell you more about this. When I felt the danger, I just fought hard to beat the heart. When I was kicked out of the consciousness space, the sense of danger disappeared."

"Then I will Use this thing to return to the consciousness space. The environment around the consciousness space is completely different from before, so that thing can't find me. "

Based on Chen Ming's statement, the boss thought about it and said, "It should be that the consciousness space has magnified your perception, allowing you to perceive many additional things."

"I'm afraid what you perceive is similar to the thing that once located the approximate location of our empire."

"But I can't tell you the details. I have to see the president first."

"The president personally experienced the last dimension infection. There are many things that only he knows. Come back as soon as possible."

"Okay."

Chen Ming agreed. , and continued: "There is one more thing."

"I had two spirit stones in my hand before, and one of them was broken just now because of the heart."

"When the spirit stone was broken, it seemed that a little bit of spirit energy penetrated into my body."

The boss saw at a glance that Chen Ming was really worried about the impact of spirit energy on the human body, and he immediately explained: "Spirit energy itself is neutral."

"It is the basis for the existence of spirit stones, and it is also one of the manufacturing materials for psychic weapons."

"Of course, the manufacture of psychic weapons is just to collect scattered spirit energy, not to directly dismantle psychic stones to manufacture."

“But you can also embed a piece of spiritual stone on it yourself, and wait for the weapon from Baiquan to arrive and see it for yourself.”

“Ahem… I’m getting off topic.”

“If you want to ask what harm there is in spiritual energy being absorbed by the human body, it seems that there is none at present, but there is no benefit either.”

“The spiritual energy absorbed by the human body is like disappearing, and no trace can be found anymore.”

“There is no research to find out where the spiritual energy absorbed by the human body goes.”

“In short, it has no effect on the human body, so you can rest assured.”

Chen Ming’s heart, which was originally a little lifted, completely fell.

“Oh, by the way, there is one more thing.”

“Because I have to meet with the president, my original plan has to be slightly changed. I have to discuss this with you.”

Originally, in Chen Ming’s initial plan, he could run away directly after taking over the highest point sent by the boss.

But now he has to go back to the pirate space station, and maybe he has to go to another star system to meet the president.

Although Chen Ming is going to meet the president of the Psychic Society, he has the boss's protection.

But he may still run into people from the war zone or Zuo Jing at that time.

No, Zuo Jing should not know that he is still alive, so he only needs to pay attention to the war zone, and he still has to be prepared at that time.

After Chen Ming's explanation, the boss also expressed his understanding and said, "Okay, I have made an appointment with the president, I will send you the route to take at that time."

"Is everything else okay? Tell me first, so that I don't delay things when I tell you in detail."

Chen Ming thought for a while and said, "It should be gone."

The troubles he encountered recently are only the things under the cloning research institute, which have been solved.

Yu Hui will definitely not dare to continue any cloning experiments in the short term.

After verifying that the Qiling Nerve Extractor is fine, it will definitely be more stable. Wait until their Qiling Nerve is ready, and then give Chen Ming a hard time.

Therefore, Chen Ming's affairs have been dealt with almost, and there is no need to trouble the boss with more things.

It is time for him to start the final stage of preparation.

In fact, the itinerary after talking with the boss should be the last thing he has to do.

After all, there is a more important premise for this matter, that is, he must leave the Yuhui galaxy first.

And the problems he needs to face in the process of leaving obviously need him to consider more thoroughly.

At present, Chen Ming can only leave the Yuhui star field by knowing his exact coordinates and being able to quickly reach the Brilliance through jump.

Once the situation of Brilliance is exposed, there will definitely be some crazy behaviors inside Yuhui.

It may be directly aimed at him, or it may be aimed at those Yuhui controlled by him.

So Chen Ming needs to eliminate the interference of Yuhui at that time and take away everything he needs.

Of course, it is definitely unrealistic to move all the colonies controlled by him, and he can only choose part of them.

Chen Ming has already thought of most of his plans and arrangements before, and the rest is to modify the details and make the Yuhui individuals under his control move in the final stage.

This requires a chat with Glorious Gamma Z and other people who have strong management capabilities.

However, Chen Ming couldn't stand up his boss now, so he spent about an hour discussing the future arrangements with his boss.

By the way, the boss also told Chen Ming that the president was not very clear about the amber he picked up, and he needed to meet later to discuss it in detail.

After confirming that there was nothing else, Chen Ming hung up the communication with the boss.

Prepare to start his own work.

However, Chen Ming didn't have time to start.

The factory manager suddenly took the initiative to touch the terminal that Chen Ming gave him and contacted him.

Although the news that Chen Ming was not dead had been known by Baiquan and the people in the war zone.

But Baiquan would definitely not tell it, and the war zone would not tell it either.

Because it was Chen Ming who caused the war zone to lose Sky Steel and some trust with their partners.

They must give an explanation to others, and Chen Ming's death is the best explanation.

But if they had already made public the news that Chen Ming was dead, but finally found out that Chen Ming was not dead, then they would be in trouble.

So now, they helped Bai Quan to block the news that Chen Ming was alive, and wanted to take the opportunity to kill Chen Ming and pretend that nothing happened.

This is the conclusion Chen Ming came to based on what Bai Quan said and the intelligence summarized by Lao Wu.

So now, at least in a larger scope, such as the scope of the Pirate Space Station, he is still a dead man.

Therefore, the factory director did not take the initiative to contact Chen Ming in recent times just in case.

Now he suddenly contacted him, it must be something urgent.

Chen Ming connected the communication with the factory director.

The factory director greeted Chen Ming first and told Chen Ming about the situation at the Pirate Space Station.

To sum it up.

After Chen Ming died in name.

The things he left at the Pirate Space Station, including supplies and spacecraft, became ownerless.

In fact, according to normal logic, it would be completely fine for the factory director to steal this batch of materials and then give some to others as hush money.

But the factory director did not do so, so this batch of goods has been there.

Chen Ming did not touch this batch of materials because he pretended to be dead before.

But because Chen Ming was about to start the next stage of the plan, he asked Lao Wu to cooperate with the boss to touch this batch of materials.

So a person from a company in the Pirate Space Station also set his sights on this batch of materials, and also set his sights on the spaceship that Chen Ming placed there.

After listening to the factory director's story, Chen Ming asked him: "So who is it?"

"Director."

"Director? Director of the Space Station Administration?"

Chen Ming's mind flashed back to the tall figure wearing combat power armor who swept the entire administration building when the military invaded the pirate space station some time ago.

The director had protected him before, but he didn't expect...

Chen Ming suddenly felt a little regretful.

But if the director really wants to touch his interests, he'd better be mentally prepared.

Otherwise, the factory director suddenly realized that his words were ambiguous and made Chen Ming misunderstand something, and hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, it's not the previous director."

"The previous director was demoted by half a level because of poor management because of problems with the internal personnel of the administration. He is now the deputy director."

"The current director of the space station was airdropped from somewhere else."

Chen Ming immediately put away the regret in his heart and said: "Oh, that's okay."
