Chapter 193 The Source of Danger

After Chen Ming controlled the Zerg spaceship, he built a hive mind network belonging to the Zerg with his mental power.

He can use this network to get the mental power feedback of the Zerg in the entire network, provide mental assistance, and speed up thinking.

And these mental power and mental feedback, after the Queen of the Zerg devoured the psychic fungus, it took more than half a month to evolve into a psychic creature, and after Chen Ming used his deep repair ability to make the Queen of the Zerg violently evolved by devouring psychic creatures completely adapt to the Queen of the Zerg's body, and after being linked to the hive mind network, new changes occurred.

In addition to the previous two, the Zerg hive network can provide one more feedback.

That is, the Zerg's psychic energy can be transformed into psychic energy fluctuations based on the propagation of the hive mind network, and then act on Chen Ming who is also in the mind network.

This means that he can also use the psychic energy of the Zerg.

As a part of the hive network and the builder of the Zerg hive network, it is not an exaggeration to use the psychic energy in the network.

It is better to say that Chen Ming, as a psychic who became a psychic very early, is more skilled in using psychic energy than the current Queen Zerg.

The effect of the Queen Zerg's psychic energy is a simple and crude ability, which strengthens physical fitness through psychic energy.

However, the physical strength of the Zerg is already there, and it only appears a little weak when facing the main units of the mechanical race.

Therefore, such a newly awakened psychic energy is not ideal for the Zerg with extremely high physical strength.

But it is completely different for Chen Ming.

Chen Ming's own psychic energy is not like Yan Xiong or the Zerg's psychic energy, which can act on himself and strengthen himself.

In addition to his regular exercise, his physical fitness is that of an ordinary person with slightly better physical fitness.

The psychic energy that has little effect on the powerful Zerg body can improve Chen Ming's body more than a little bit.

Relying on the Zerg's mental power to transform into psychic fluctuations, feeling the sense of power filling his body.

Chen Ming subconsciously clenched his fists, a little excited.

However, he knew that he had no time to waste, so he immediately opened the hatch at the highest point and jumped high from the hatch.

Relying on the biomass jet on the back of the biomass armor, the pure gray-green tail flame was ejected, and the strong physical fitness given by the Zerg's psychic energy.

Chen Ming was like a swift Zerg in an instant, and pounced on the top of the mechanical cruiser.

Just as he had just stood firm.

Several passages suddenly opened on the mechanical cruiser that had been silent since the external defense weapons were destroyed, and several flying mantises and quiet mantises rushed out from them.

Several flying mantises instantly ejected bright tail flames from their backs, and quickly swung the sharp blades on their arms towards Chen Ming.

If it was the previous Chen Ming, relying on his strong consciousness and thinking speed, he would definitely be able to see this scene very clearly, but the limitation of his physical fitness did not allow him to dodge and counterattack.

However, now, with the pure physical strengthening psychic assistance of the Zerg, Chen Ming, who had no actual fighting experience, actually successfully dodged the attacks of two flying mantises.

However, he could not dodge the attacks of the remaining three flying mantises and could only take them head-on.

However, the strong protective power brought by the biological armor did not leave even a mark after taking the slashing of six flying mantis sickle blades.

The impact of the blade slashing, after being buffered by layers, actually caused Chen Ming himself to have a greater impact than the impact of Xiao Shi jumping off the backrest of the bed and hitting him.

For Chen Ming now, it was not even a tickle.

He could even turn around and rely on the synergistic power brought by himself and the armor on his body to directly control the flying mantis next to him.

When Chen Ming instantly tried to control the flying mantis with psychic power, he found that his psychic power was ineffective, just like when Yu Hui controlled these mechanical tribes before.

Chen Ming frowned and said nothing more.

He didn't have time to worry about this now.

He directly used brute force to remove the arm of the relatively fragile Mantis with the sickle blade from the vulnerable key point, completely killing the Mantis.

This is just pure strength, and the combat ability of the biomass armor is not entirely based on brute force.

Suddenly, a black blade extending forward like a claw condensed on each of the arm armors of the biomass armor.

Relying on the strength of the black carapace and various metals that can easily tear apart the white cloud steel, Chen Ming killed the other four Mantises in an instant.

The other static mantises that also appeared on the top of the cruiser and had dispersed to shoot at Chen Ming, but they were also unable to break through the defense.

After killing the Mantis, Chen Ming also used the electromagnetic javelin that could produce Zerg energy crystal-supported projectiles that condensed in his hand in an instant to hit their heads directly, and they died completely in the explosion of unstable energy crystals.

Chen Ming's heartbeat was getting faster and faster. This unprecedented feeling of personally participating in the battle made him excited.

Although this was not his own ability, he relied on the biological armor on his body and the psychic power of the Zerg to do this.

But the face-to-face battle still made it difficult for him to suppress his excitement.

However, he also knew what he should do now.

So after excitedly clearing out several mechanical tribes that interfered with him, Chen Ming immediately touched the cruiser under him and took the initiative to activate the psychic power.

The result was not surprising, the control failed.

And when Chen Ming did not directly call up the psychic power himself.

Instead, he used the option of [Detected spacecraft signal, do you want to connect?] on the panel.

He got a prompt of [Signal conflict, unable to connect].

This result made Chen Ming shut down for half a second.

He took a deep breath and forced down the emotions in his heart.

He stood up and flew into the air again with the biomass armor and returned to the highest point.

A few seconds later, a large amount of metal liquid flowed out from the highest point, and was transformed by Chen Ming into more than a dozen mechanical arms with different functions.

These mechanical arms acted on the nearby mechanical cruisers, dismantled the facilities connecting the mechanical cruisers to the ground, and uprooted the cruisers that had already taken root on the ground.

Although psychic power could not control it, physical control was still no problem.

Take the cruiser away, there will always be opportunities to use psychic control in the future.

After firmly fixing the mechanical cruiser at the bottom of the highest point, Chen Ming controlled the highest point to fly into space.

At this time, on the other side of the city, the defenders and colossi also controlled most of the mechanicals that could be taken away with the help of the Zerg ground units and stuffed them into the spacecraft.

They followed the highest point with the mechanicals that were also controlled and flew into space.

At this time, the few cruisers left by Chen Ming in space were still safely in orbit, without any attack or other interference.

So Chen Ming directly started the jump engine.

But as expected, the process of the jump engine was interrupted before it even started.

The mechanical race had already arrived outside the galaxy when Chen Ming's psychic power was alerted, and began to blockade the interior of the galaxy.

However, because Chen Ming had noticed something wrong before, he focused on efficiency when doing things on the planet.

So he returned to space just when the mechanical race had not yet completely completed the blockade of the galaxy's jump engine, and sensed the gap that the mechanical race had not yet completed in blocking the galaxy.

As long as Chen Ming's ship could reach the gap that had not yet been completely closed, he could get rid of the situation where he might be blocked and beaten by the mechanical race in the galaxy.

So Chen Ming immediately commanded several cruisers to sail towards the gap in his psychic perception.

And when Chen Ming's fleet was about to reach the edge of the galaxy.

Through the scanning array at the highest point, Chen Ming finally found the cruiser that the mechanical race had arrived long ago but had been hiding and was setting up a blockade device.

And other escort fleets that were protecting this cruiser to block the gap.

In fact, the mechanical race wanted to prevent Chen Ming from not jumping but flying out of the blockade area from the normal space by relying on the ship's own engine.

So they evenly arranged multiple cruisers around the galaxy, but there were more of them in the gap that had not yet been closed.

But the mechanical race's fleet here was only a dozen cruisers that could be considered troublesome to Chen Ming.

So Chen Ming chose to completely ignore the loss and maximize the effectiveness of his psychic power.

Five rounds of eight thousand meteorite drones flew out from the Stardust-class flight deck in succession, with terrifying red light, and rushed towards the mechanical race's fleet blocking the gap.

As long as he could break through the defense line formed by these cruisers, Chen Ming could safely start the jump engine and retreat.

But as Chen Ming's fleet broke into the scanning range of the mechanical race, the mechanical race also reacted very quickly.

In just a dozen seconds, more than 20 cruisers located in different positions in the galaxy made a short-distance emergency jump, arrived at the gap, and came to stop Chen Ming.

Moreover, the scanning array at the highest point also scanned a new jump wave.

The huge coverage of this jump wave also made Chen Ming's eyes widen.

Because behind this jump wave is either a cruiser fleet of at least 50 ships, or a battleship.

As long as Chen Ming fights for his life, he can fight against 20 or 30 cruisers with the terrifying output and defense capabilities of his cruisers.

But more than 80 cruisers are really not something that Chen Ming's five cruisers plus a stardust can deal with.

Not to mention the battleships, only the battleships can threaten the battleships. Without the battleships on the front battlefield, other spaceships are garbage.

Therefore, as long as he delays the mechanical race for less than 30 seconds, he will have no chance of escape.

So Chen Ming made a decision instantly.

He must jump immediately.

In fact, when Chen Ming arrived near the gap and saw the mechanical race setting up jump blockade devices outside the galaxy, he could have started the jump engine.

However, if a cruiser with the jump engine started is attacked, it has almost no defense ability.

Therefore, Chen Ming had previously thought of killing the fleet here first, breaking through the scope of the galaxy completely, and then jumping, which is the safest way.

But now the situation is obviously not so smooth.

So Chen Ming's choice now is to lose a defender that has not installed the Alpha-class afterglow core and has taken away the least number of mechanical races.

Let it withstand the concentrated fire of the next mechanical race fleet, and the other cruisers immediately start jumping on the spot, no longer seeking to escape from the mechanical race's firepower range.

It would be really fatal if it was delayed at this time.

As Chen Ming's command was issued.

The defender and the 8,000 meteor fighters that the Stardust class had just released rushed towards the mechanical race fleet together.

The other cruisers behind began to slow down and started the jump engine.

At this moment.

The jump fluctuations that had just existed gradually subsided, and a fleet consisting of more than 50 cruisers and dozens of destroyers and frigates jumped here.

Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not the main battleship, but another cruiser that Chen Ming guessed, with a larger number.

But Chen Ming suddenly found that something seemed wrong.

Almost all of the newly arrived mechanical cruisers were injured, and there was hardly any uninjured destroyer or frigate.

It was as if they had just experienced a brutal battle.

And at this time, the scanning array that had not yet completed the jump process and had not left the highest point of the galaxy suddenly scanned something.

Just where the reinforcements of more than 50 mechanical cruisers arrived, where the jump fluctuations had just subsided.

Some strange fluctuations appeared.

Some fluctuations were similar to those of the jump engine, but nothing jumped over.

And the fluctuations disappeared quickly, and it seemed that there was nothing abnormal.

But at the moment when the wave disappeared, Chen Ming suddenly felt a sense of extreme danger from the center of the mechanical family fleet, where the strange wave disappeared.

The next moment, the side of a wounded cruiser of the mechanical family, which was closest to the wave, suddenly seemed to be hit by something, and a huge dent appeared on the armor of the ship.

The whole ship also crashed into the same spaceship next to it uncontrollably.

In a blink of an eye, two groups of fireworks appeared in the space.

Before the fireworks completely disappeared, the scene that just happened happened again on another mechanical family cruiser.

The hull was hit violently by something and crashed into other spaceships uncontrollably. In an instant, several spaceships were completely reduced to wreckage.

In this process, Chen Ming sensed a huge source of danger wandering inside the mechanical family fleet.

Chen Ming didn't know what it was, but Chen Ming knew that it was extremely aggressive and constantly destroyed the mechanical family's spaceships.

What the hell is this thing?

This question flashed through Chen Ming's mind.

So he quickly asked the defender to retreat and return to his side.

At the same time, he immediately and forcibly suppressed the start-up process of the jump engine.

At the cost of losing the life of the engine, in exchange for the jump engine to maintain the highest output power, that is, the jump engine can be started at any time for jump retreat.

Anyway, the damage to the engine life is nothing in front of Chen Ming, and it can be repaired at any time.

Chen Ming wanted to stay here for a while. He wanted to figure out what it was that could kill several mechanical cruisers so inexplicably and so easily.

Chen Ming's several spaceships turned around and kept a safe distance from the mechanical fleet.

At the same time, all scanning equipment at the highest point started at full power, scanning the situation inside the mechanical fleet.

But the scanned results showed that nothing was scanned except the mechanical ships themselves.

It was as if the destroyed spaceships of the mechanical family were destroyed by their own people.

But the obvious external forces on those spaceships would not deceive people.

There must be something that caused such damage.

And it was definitely not some small physical enhancement psychic who punched it, but something that was really close to the size of a cruiser that hit the mechanical cruiser.

In the galaxy, it seemed that something that could not be seen, scanned, or detected was destroying everything of the mechanical race.

Even if the mechanical cruiser had its shield turned on, it would be useless.

As long as it was not a full-range shield like the one at the highest point that completely protected the ship, there would always be a few places on the spacecraft that the shield could not cover, and there would always be exposed positions.

Then they will be attacked by the source of danger.

However, the mechanical race seems to be completely unconcerned now. They are charging towards Chen Ming as if they did not see that the source of danger is constantly destroying their warships.

They continue to fire at Chen Ming's fleet that is still out of range.

Chen Ming is not worried anyway. He has already pressed the jump engine to the extreme. If there is any problem, he can jump away at the first time.

It's just that Chen Ming clearly saw that many weapons and projectiles or energy beams hit the source of danger in his perception when they were shot in his direction, but the source of danger did not react at all.

It can't be seen, touched, or hit, but that thing can do all this in reverse.

It... seems not to be in the normal cosmic environment, but it can affect this universe.

The mechanical race was targeted by such a terrifying thing.

Half of the mechanical race's cruiser fleet of more than 80 ships were destroyed in a blink of an eye.

None of them can escape the attack of the source of danger and get close to Chen Ming.

But Chen Ming feels that it won't be long before that thing is likely to target him.

He knew that he couldn't stay here for long, so at the moment when the defender also entered the final stage of the jump engine startup.

He loosened the restrictions on the jump engine, and the six cruisers entered the jump together.

Chen Ming's spaceship disappeared.

Only the source of danger continued to destroy the mechanical race.

As time passed, until the source of danger destroyed all the mechanical race spaceships in the galaxy, the galaxy gradually became quiet.

But less than a few minutes had passed.

The city of the mechanical race on the planet that had been destroyed by Chen Ming once suddenly welcomed the attack of the source of danger.

It continued to destroy the city and defeated all the mechanical races that barely survived and were not captured by Chen Ming.

In just over ten minutes, hundreds of huge manta-like traces that were tens of meters deep underground and at least a kilometer long were left in the city that was almost entirely made of white cloud steel.

It waited until the entire city was engulfed in flames under this terrifying attack, and then it returned to space again.

Using the unique fluctuation, following the jump trajectory it came from, it returned to the star field of the mechanical race again.

If Chen Ming still stayed here, he should be able to guess what the mechanical race was like during this period and why the development of this galaxy was so slow.

However, if he really stayed here, he might have the same ending as the mechanical race.

Fortunately, he had already started the jump engine in advance and escaped successfully from the gap that the mechanical race had not yet completely closed.

Headed to the empire.

After all, the jump trajectory can be tracked, and Chen Ming would not be stupid enough to run directly to the temporary base.

If you run to the empire, you don’t have to worry about the mechanical race tracking you at that time.

At the same time, you don’t have to worry about the source of danger chasing you.

At least Chen Ming still believes in his boss’s ability.

However, when Chen Ming reappeared in the city where the pirate space station was located after two more jumps, he was basically completely safe.

Chen Ming’s heartbeat still accelerated a lot, and some belated cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

If he had been a little greedier in the mechanical city before and let the Queen of Insects track down the escaped advanced mechanical individuals, wasting some time in the process, he might have died here today.

Not only the subsequent recruitment of the mechanical race, but also the source of danger that made the cruiser defenseless.

So Chen Ming kept thinking after calming down.

What exactly is that thing?

Chen Ming had not learned about any similar existence from any research report he had read or the only information he had.

So Chen Ming thought about it and called Bai Quan.

Bai Quan quickly answered Chen Ming's call and asked, "Is it over?"

"It's over, it's going smoothly, and there is basically no loss. But I have a question."

"Ask."

"Well... I can't explain it clearly. I'll send you the video and you can watch it yourself."

"Okay."

Bai Quan opened the video sent by Chen Ming and started playing it.

Chen Ming explained casually: "This happened when I was preparing to evacuate after I had achieved my previous goal. You also saw it. I had five against more than ten."

Bai Quan looked at the five waves of eight thousand Meteorite fighters that flew out from the Stardust class that he had given to Chen Ming before, and subconsciously pushed his glasses.

He had imagined how powerful Chen Ming's psychic power was before, but now he couldn't help but feel that it was a bit too exaggerated.

This is just a cruiser, what if it is a main-class aircraft carrier?

How many fighters can Chen Ming release in a short time?

Although the empire currently does not have a main-class aircraft carrier equipped with unmanned fighters.

But to be honest, if Chen Ming really decided to join the imperial military or government one day, as long as it had been verified for a period of time, the imperial high-level officials would definitely immediately start to arrange for Chen Ming to design a battleship and let Chen Ming participate.

This made Bai Quan want to recruit him out of habit.

But he still held back. Since Chen Ming had questions to ask, he would wait until Chen Ming finished asking.

"It looks OK, right? You should be able to defeat it. Any problem?"

What Chen Ming saw was even more shocking than what he heard, so he just said, "You'll know if you keep watching."

"More than 30 cruisers from the mechanical clan jumped over immediately. Even if I have psychic power, a Stardust can't defeat them."

"So I decided to sacrifice a cruiser to cover the rear, and the other ships jumped on the spot and ran away."

Bai Quan nodded slightly and said, "There's nothing wrong with this decision. You must pay a loss when necessary to survive."

"And for you, the only loss is the cruiser itself, and there is no loss of other manpower."

Chen Ming didn't care about the loss of any ship at all when he had the disassembly psychic power to transfer materials at will, and agreed, "Indeed, but the problem is not the loss, but other things."

Bai Quan's terminal screen was already playing the moment when the strange wave appeared.

Just a few seconds later, Bai Quan also saw the scene of the mechanical clan's fleet being hit by something.

"This!"

Baiquan subconsciously stood up from the desk in his current room, looking serious.

"I have to go ask."
