Chapter 274 Unfriendly Visitors
He Gu spoke in a serious tone.
In his opinion, Chen Ming was a member of the Psychic Society.
And psychics who came out of the Psychic Society's education model were different from those who came out of the Empire's normal education methods.
In some things, psychics in the Psychic Society especially like to try it out by themselves, experience matters related to psychic power, and then summarize their experiences.
Only those who have tried it themselves can make a conclusion.
Although psychics cultivated in this way do surpass psychics who receive ordinary education in some abilities.
Even after these psychics have reached a bottleneck in their ability development and started to learn systematic psychic knowledge, it is relatively easy to surpass psychics who have systematically studied from the beginning in all aspects.
After all, those who can find their own way in such an environment are people with certain talents, and their own growth path can often be modified to the most suitable for themselves.
However.
When such psychics encounter some unknown things, they often have some suicidal thoughts of "let me see what's going on".
Although these people are smart, they will prepare some back-up plans before they are ready to commit suicide.
But not all back-up plans will work, and not all troubles can be easily dealt with.
The mind-running entity is one of them.
So although Chen Ming said that he had encountered it, He Gu felt that he still had to warn him seriously.
If Chen Ming got into trouble, it would be a major loss to the 14th Corps.
But when thinking about this, He Gu suddenly realized something.
Chen Ming should be in the branch of the 14th Corps now, where did he encounter the mind-running entity?
After thinking about it, he couldn't think of the answer. He felt that even if he asked Chen Ming, he would not tell him, and if he did, it would be a lie, so he simply didn't ask.
He just repeated what he had just said, hoping that Chen Ming would listen and not make committing suicide a habit.
After he finished speaking, Chen Ming of course agreed.
Anyway, he had warnings from psychic energy before doing things.
He would definitely not do anything that was really dangerous, not to mention that he now had a fake body.
Why would he do something that the fake body could do himself?
Chen Ming did not show any suspicion of seeking death, and asked casually: "Is there anything else you can say about this psychotic entity?"
He Gu thought for a moment and said: "Yes, there are two little-known facts that many people don't know."
"That is, this psychotic entity can only be transformed by humans, and ordinary creatures will not be affected even if they carry several psychic materials of different properties."
"Because psychic creatures do not have spiritual nerves, their own psychic properties occupy the most important part of their bodies. External existence cannot affect them at all, and different psychic properties will not occur. Active fighting in the body."
"Another piece of knowledge is that when there are multiple psychic properties in a psychic that are fighting each other, the psychic is basically dead."
"However, the remaining active psychic properties will still derive different appearances of the mind-running entity according to the original psychic's situation."
"According to the records we have, the appearance of the mind-running entity will show different manifestations according to a person's long-term obsession, the major injuries he has experienced, or the self-awareness in the subconscious. "
Chen Ming's mind immediately turned.
According to He Gu, the style of the totem pole may represent the psychic's simple belief in Zuo Jing?
Those arms may also be related to the psychic's obsession or the injuries he has suffered?
But the virtual psychic is dead, and there is no way to confirm it now, so there is nothing to say.
Chen Ming suddenly thought of a question.
Does the boss know these two little-known facts?
If the boss knows that the mind-running entity can only be transformed by humans.
Even if the boss knew that his afterglow was distributed in various places, it seemed that he couldn't help him explain where the psychic outside the empire turned into a psychotronic entity, and he just happened to encounter it. Coincidentally, Chen Ming and the armed forces eliminated the psychotronic entity there, and sent the spiritual stone back by the way...
Uh... Never mind, it's okay, the boss's side was exposed, so it's not a big problem.
The conversation with He Gu on the psychotronic entity ended.
Chen Ming immediately reviewed all the relevant key points in his mind and wrote them down. Maybe they will be useful in the future.
However, he didn't hang up the phone in a hurry. He planned to take this opportunity to communicate with He Gu to ask some questions about the 14th Corps.
For example, one thing he had been paying more attention to before.
"Can the contribution points of psychics be traded?"
As a member of the Psychic Research Institute, He Gu was very familiar with the psychics of the 14th Corps, and immediately gave Chen Ming a positive answer: "Yes."
"In fact, it was not allowed originally, but the prohibition of trading only adds an additional step of bartering when psychics conduct private transactions, so this rule was deleted later."
"Anyway, contribution points are basically earned by doing things, and it is the psychic's own business if they are willing to share the contribution points they earn by doing things."
After Chen Ming confirmed that contribution points can be traded, he immediately asked: "Then is the Legion Psychic Research Institute purely supported by the Legion, or is it an independent department? Who determines the contribution points of psychics?"
As someone who really wants to invite Chen Ming to join the Psychic Research Institute, He Gu will naturally not be stingy with his time for Chen Ming's desire to learn more about the rules of the 14th Legion Psychics.
He continued to explain: "Each organization's psychic research institute is an independent department, but it usually gets the most support from the organization, and you should know the reason."
"Then the contribution points are all issued by the legion. The people below, even the research institute, can only help report the achievements that can get contribution points. For example, the two researches you did before were reported by us, and the rewards will come soon."
"However, most of the things that can be exchanged for contribution points are materials stored in the warehouse of our psychic research institute, and they have to be exchanged with us."
"These things belong to the legion, not just the research institute. If the research institute wants to use them, it must be approved and cannot be taken casually."
Chen Ming roughly understood the operating principle of the psychic contribution point mechanism. Basically, it can be said that it is a means for the legion to control the psychics under its command, of course, the premise is that they cannot be traded.
Now this situation where contribution points can be traded is a win-win situation that both psychics and legions can accept.
"I see. Will the Corps collect some extra stuff from other places?"
He Gu responded: "Yes. The military supply depot often doesn't have everything. Many things have to be found by people. Acquisition is an easy way."
"For example, as I just told you, our laboratory needs the things left behind by the mind-runaway entity. If we want to buy from you, it depends on whether you want to barter or directly choose contribution points."
"So do you want to trade contribution points or buy something?"
"Yes."
Chen Ming responded and said in detail: "I have something that should be I want to sell something that is still quite valuable in exchange for something I need. "
"What do you want to sell?"
"A set of power armor made of pure spiritual material metal, materials of the same nature."
He Gu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and asked uncertainly: "What do you want to sell?"
"A set of power armor, most of the metal on it is psychic metal, and the properties are the same."
He Gu on the other end of the phone did not take Chen Ming's words as a lie, but seriously considered the size of common power armor and how much metal material is needed to make such a life power armor.
Then he said to Chen Ming: "Wait a moment."
Put down the terminal temporarily.
It should be to find someone to discuss.
After all, such a set of power armor is really not low in value. Many psychics may not even be able to afford a handy, or even unhandy psychic weapon.
So such a set of power armor should only be funded by psychic research with the official funding background of the Fourteenth Legion.
A few minutes later, He Gu picked up the terminal again and asked Chen Ming, "Are you sure it's the same material?"
"Yes."
After all, they were all dug out from Yan Xiong, so how could they not be of the same nature?
"To be honest, we are quite interested in your thing."
However, He Gu didn't mean the power armor, but the large piece of psychic material of the same nature that was used to make the power armor.
Psychic materials have never been common, and their properties are varied.
Even if the properties of many materials seem to be similar, there are only slight differences.
But as the total number increases, this difference will become obvious and cannot be directly applied to some large equipment for single use.
Therefore, large-volume psychic materials of the same nature that can be used to make a set of power armor can be said to be very rare.
It is still surprising that Chen Ming can get such a thing.
He Gu casually guessed that it should be the product of the ruins of another civilization obtained by Chen Ming's outward-exploring Yuhui Fleet, or perhaps it could be found by Chen Ming in the Yuhui Star Region.
Of course, it is also possible that Chen Ming really dug up a vein, and then directly made this psychic ore into power armor.
If you think so, then the psychic runaway entity may also be caused by those psychics who have a very small probability of existing in Yuhui's territory.
He Gu thought of a reasonable explanation, so he didn't continue to dwell on this aspect, and turned to ask the question he needed to know most: "Has the psychic material been made into power armor?"
"Yes."
After the boss reminded him of the use of Yan Xiong, Chen Ming asked Chaofan to help make a set for his original body.
However, Chen Ming's original body is now on the road of development with Huihuang Chaofan and others, and has been well protected and has never encountered any danger.
In addition, the boss reminded him not to wear multiple psychic equipment of different natures at the same time.
And, although the effect of power armor is really good, it far exceeds the spiritual stone and psychic weapons in terms of the increase in mental power and psychic energy.
But wearing power armor every day is also very uncomfortable. Chen Ming would rather get a lower bonus from psychic equipment, so the power armor is currently in a state of no use.
Wait a minute.
Chen Ming suddenly subconsciously hammered the table and rolled back his thoughts to the previous sentence.
Something seems to be wrong.
He didn't mean that the power armor was uncomfortable to wear, but the increase in external objects he got from his body.
Chen Ming now has four spirit stones on hand, Whisper, Fear, Obsession, and the Words of Madness spirit stone he brought to his fake body in the 14th Legion.
The Madness spirit stone on the fake body is embedded in a psychic revolver with a neutral nature.
Although he himself is not very clear about the nature of his psychic energy, he vomited blood when the totem pole absorbed his psychic fluctuations before, which does not seem to be a very neutral psychic nature.
These three different natures of psychic energy mixed together, but there was no problem like the Void Psychic?
Even if it is because of the fake body carrying it, Chen Ming could have carried these things personally earlier.
Moreover, Chen Ming embedded the spirit stone in the weapon, which was a method that the boss had specifically told him before.
This embedding of an extremely negative spirit stone in a neutral weapon, doesn't it conflict with the psychic not carrying too many psychic equipment of different natures on the body?
Chen Ming was used to this before, so he didn't pay attention.
But now I suddenly thought of looking back... Isn't this nonsense?
The boss will definitely not harm him, is there something he doesn't know?
Is it that he himself can resist the influence of the psychic properties from the three properties? Or is it the special nature of the resonance spirit stone? Or is it the special nature of the weapon?
Or... is he more special?
On the other side, He Gu heard Chen Ming suddenly pounding the table and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just thought of something."
"Is it that if a spiritual weapon is inlaid with spiritual stones, can the effect of the weapon be improved?"
He Gu understood what Chen Ming meant and said, "That's right, you probably want to ask if this violates the principle of not carrying multiple psychic equipment of different properties?"
"Yeah."
"You don't have to worry about this, because when spiritual weapons are inlaid with spiritual stones, the usual choice is to use spiritual stones that are compatible with psychics, or spiritual stones with similar properties to the effects of psychic weapons."
"Even if psychic weapons are not compatible with psychics for some reason, in the end, a person will only have two different psychic traits with relatively large differences."
"I just told you that the psychic rampage entity needs to have at least three different properties."
"So this situation is not very satisfying for the psychic rampage "" Although the subtle nature deviations lead to the risk of soul runaway, the nature of the three places is much better. " Reminder. "" So don't worry. "" ... "In Chen Ming's silence, He Gu continued:" The spiritual stone spirit can fluctuate in the general situation. . "Although He Gu said so, Chen Ming had just seen a guy who became a spiritual run away because of spiritual stones. Oh no, it seems that it is really not because of spiritual stone. That none spiritual ability is likely to be because he is studying the soul and beast plan that he is studying in the left diameter laboratory, which causes him to contact too much with the soul -beasts that are obsessed with the characteristics. The expansion desire of the mind beast is still very strong, and it does affect the people around it, so the psychic fluctuations on the totem pole are not the psychic fluctuations of the spirit stone, but the psychic fluctuations of the mind beast.
This just explains why Chen Ming found the obsession spirit stone on the mind beast, not on the totem pole.
But this still cannot explain why three psychic fluctuations of absolutely different natures did not trigger his mind to run wild when they existed in Chen Ming himself. Is it luck?
Chen Ming was not comfortable discussing this issue concerning the nature of spiritual energy with He Gu, whom he had not known for too long.
So he was still worried and immediately sent a message to the boss to ask.
The boss's reply was to reassure Chen Ming.
According to the boss, the spiritual energy material used in the "Ming" given by Bai Quan was a very neutral characteristic, neutral.
Although the strength of this neutral spiritual material is not high, it is the most adaptable and adaptable material among almost all spiritual materials.
This point was not written on the certificate given by Bai Quan. Chen Ming only knew that this was a neutral material before, and he always thought it was a bit inferior.
But think about it, how could Bai Quan really give him a piece of garbage.
Before, the boss only knew that Chen Ming had two spiritual stones with similar properties, and spiritual stones were not easy to obtain, so he only asked Chen Ming to try to embed them.
In addition, the Word of Madness happened to be a spiritual stone that evolved from Whispering. It can be said that it is a spiritual stone of the same origin, and there will be no conflict at all.
So he didn't say anything about the mental runaway entities at that time.
That should be fine.
Chen Ming felt that it was the special material properties of the weapon and its ability to contain that did not cause the mind to run away.
If it really caused the mind to run away, he should have given a warning of danger when he obtained the next new psychic trait.
Thinking of this, Chen Ming finally put his mind at ease.
But he still felt something was wrong, as if he had overlooked something.
But what he overlooked didn't seem to have any effect, and there was no sense of danger.
Chen Ming didn't think about it for a while, so he didn't think about it anymore.
He continued to talk to He Gu about the topic just now, the sale of power armor.
The power armor in his hand was temporarily useless, and Yan Xiong could still continue to produce psychic metal, so he planned to sell this set first and make a new one when needed in the future.
So, after Chen Ming brought the topic back, he continued to sell it: "If you need it, I can dismantle the power armor and make it what you need. My psychic effect can be directly restored to ensure that there will be no impact, just like a piece of psychic metal that just came out of the smelting furnace."
He Gu was obviously very interested in this thing. Chen Ming said that he could help deal with the materials, so he didn't pretend and said directly: "That's the best. In this case... what do you want?"
Chen Ming decisively gave his needs: "Spirit-awakening nerve."
"Are you interested in this thing? For yourself? I heard that you have absorbed several of them. Try to pay attention. Many cases have proved that rashly absorbing the Spirit-awakening nerve is likely to cause mental problems."
"I know, that's why I need it."
He Gu had heard about Chen Ming's deeds of chewing the Spirit-awakening nerve from others before, so he didn't say more: "If you have confidence, there will be no problem. How many do you need?"
"It depends on how many I can replace this power armor with."
"Okay."
He Gu said, glanced at the message sent by the director on the terminal, and then said to Chen Ming: "We can give you two spiritual awakening nerves."
Chen Ming bargained: "Two... It feels a bit too little."
"Then we can also give you some extra things below 5000 contribution points. What else do you think you need?"
An additional 5000 contribution points is almost at Chen Ming's bottom line. He also stopped while he was ahead. He thought about what he had seen on the website before and said: "I have seen something that seems to detect the spiritual nature of psychics, right? That thing doesn't seem to be cheap."
"It's just that the disposable detector sold to the outside is not cheap, but if you come to the institute to help you with a physical examination, it's free."
"Forget the physical examination."
Chen Ming politely rejected the idea of a physical examination. It would be fun if the physical examination found that there were no spiritual awakening nerves in the brain of the prosthesis.
"Just this disposable equipment plus the remaining 3,000 contribution points."
"Okay."
He Gu didn't waste any words and immediately agreed: "I will go to the branch to find you in person with the Qiling Nerve and the equipment."
With the end of the communication.
Time passed in a blink of an eye.
Chen Ming arrived at the next scheduled supply point again.
Although the supplies have not been consumed, it is definitely impossible to wait until the supplies are exhausted before replenishing.
And what he did can also disrupt the possibility of the people who are tracking him to a certain extent to speculate his whereabouts based on the amount of supplies he purchased.
And this time, Chen Ming also arrived at a comprehensive colony.
But the scale is smaller than before, and it does not have the characteristics of a garden planet like that.
It is just an ordinary colony in a prosperous star field.
This time after arriving at the port, Chen Ming asked the maintenance factory to repair the spacecraft and replenish supplies as before.
After paying the deposit and leaving the port.
Chen Ming suddenly discovered from the billboards on the roadside that this colony seemed to have some characteristics.
In the ocean of this planet, there lived a very delicious, large, starfish-like creature with multiple irregular tentacles.
Because the meat of this starfish is extremely perishable and difficult to preserve, it is usually sold in canned starfish, and only locals can enjoy the freshest starfish.
Chen Ming had seen it in some advertisements before, and now he happened to see it again, so he simply ran to a local restaurant to open a private room and ordered dishes.
Like an ordinary person, he swiped the terminal and waited for the dishes to be served.
However, while waiting.
Chen Ming suddenly stood up, raised his fist and swung it behind him with wind pressure that was enough to cut the skin.
But this punch only dispersed some black fog.
A familiar voice suddenly came from the black fog floating beside him: "Do you really want to fight in this place?"
"It's a downtown area outside."
