Star Ocean: Starting From the Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 293 Dimensional Power

Chen Ming returned to his iron jungle on the island suspended in the universe.

Compared to the last time he came in, the area of ​​the island has almost doubled.

In addition, the density and height of the iron trees on the island have increased significantly.

The island in the consciousness space and the iron trees on the island represent Chen Ming's spiritual power strength.

This means that he has made more progress since he came in last time.

In the center of the island.

The mountain built by the wreckage of the spacecraft is also much higher than before.

Even at the foot of the mountain, in the previously empty area around, there are many buildings that are definitely man-made.

If Chen Ming remembers correctly, these buildings are all buildings of the mechanical family.

This should be the form of the cluster hive consciousness of the mechanical family with him as the core in his consciousness space.

Chen Ming can also see the shadow of the ship spirit passing through these buildings.

After discovering that Chen Ming had entered the consciousness space station, it immediately flew to Chen Ming's side, circled around Chen Ming for a few times, and then returned to the buildings and continued to be busy.

Now Chen Ming knew where the ship spirit went when he was not on the ship, that is, he stayed in his consciousness space.

It managed the mechanical buildings in the consciousness space.

These mechanical buildings created some mechanicals and collected raw materials in the steel forest.

The ship spirit seemed to want to build something.

Although Chen Ming didn't know what it was for, it would not harm him.

After watching these changes on the isolated island.

Chen Ming's eyes moved to the distance.

At a distance from the isolated island, something was constantly approaching him.

It was a biological spaceship belonging to the Zerg that was slightly smaller than the isolated island in the steel jungle.

That biological spaceship was the external manifestation of the Queen of the Zerg in the consciousness space.

When Chen Ming used the condensed spiritual energy source to connect the Queen of the Zerg with himself through consciousness, the Queen of the Zerg naturally appeared here.

Chen Ming roughly estimated that the Queen's biological spaceship was about half the size of the island.

The diameter of Chen Ming's island alone was at least a hundred kilometers, and the height was about half the diameter.

Such a biological warship that was half the size of his conical island was indeed a bit exaggerated.

This giant Zerg biological warship was more terrifying than the main battleship.

Of course, this biological warship only appeared in the consciousness space, not in reality.

After Chen Ming confirmed that there were no other new changes in his consciousness space compared to the last time he came here.

He looked at the reason why he came to this place, and the recipient who also existed in this consciousness space.

He was just opposite Chen Ming's island.

However, the external manifestation of his consciousness space was not an island.

It was a giant brain suspended in the universe, close at hand on the scale of the universe.

Judging from the size alone, this brain was even larger than Chen Ming's island.

Around the brain, there are several rings of flesh and blood, covering the brain.

If you look carefully, you can find that the flesh and blood tissues of these rings are almost all made of intestines.

If Chen Ming guessed correctly.

These intestines should be the source organs of the recipient's dimensional infection.

This is the performance of the recipient in the consciousness space.

Chen Ming can feel that the recipient is not only the part of the ability represented in the consciousness space that has become the brain.

Moreover, the body in the consciousness space has lost its human form and has become a monster, merging with the huge brain.

I saw that the brain that was slowly approaching Chen Ming's island had a crack near the top, and a huge bloodshot eye suddenly opened in the crack.

Those flesh and blood rings were trembling excitedly, and the power of dimensional infection was also surging with the trembling of those intestines.

It seemed to be leaking to the outside world through this consciousness space.

This did not seem to be a good sign, Chen Ming had to hurry up.

While Chen Ming was staring at the brain.

The brain's eyes also saw Chen Ming's island and the steel jungle.

Contempt appeared in his eyes.

But soon, his eyes changed because he found something wrong.

Before the recipient became a meat mountain, he had been paying attention to various intelligence.

And An Wuping, who had been tracking Zuo Jing all the way, slaughtering Zuo Jing all the way, being abducted by Qianmian, and finally betraying, was naturally the one he paid the most attention to.

The consciousness space of such a psychic with a physical mutation should not be this steel jungle.

And when he saw the mountain made of spaceship wreckage in the center of the steel jungle, he completely confirmed this idea.

Only a slow, doubtful, heavy, and tired voice came from the brain: "You are not... An Wuping? But... the insect nest... No, not... you are a machine? Who are you?"

At this time, Chen Ming, who was in the steel jungle, relied on his own control of the consciousness space and instantly came to the top of the wreckage mountain.

He didn't say anything, just stood there.

"Chen... Ming..."

"I should have thought of it earlier..."

"Who... would track us like a mad dog..."

"You... should die..."

After the brain finished speaking, it stopped talking and quickly approached the isolated island.

Even because of the advantage in distance, the giant floating brain had arrived in front of the isolated island in a blink of an eye.

In front of the brain, a gap full of sharp teeth like an abyss was cracked vertically again, as if it wanted to swallow the isolated island in one bite.

At this time, Chen Ming could feel that his mental power was about to collide with the mental power of the recipient.

After all, the isolated island and the brain are just the external manifestations of the mental power of the psychic in the consciousness space.

All the means that seemed to be physical confrontations were all manifestations of mental power.

What was really clashing was the most essential mental power of Chen Ming and the recipient.

At this time, before the two sides fought completely, one of them still had the opportunity to give up a lot of mental power and get out.

And when the existence of the two consciousness spaces came into contact, and the mental power of the two psychics was completely locked, only one person could get out alive.

Chen Ming did not hesitate to highly condense his mental power. The steel jungle was like a living thing under his control.

A large piece of steel thorns grew wildly at the position where the brain crack was about to bite.

Who lives and who dies, there is only one answer for him.

At the moment when the two behemoths collided.

The brain bit down, and at the same time as the sharp whistling sound of the steel being torn and twisted sounded.

The bloody mouth of the brain was also full of blood.

And the large number of intestinal star rings surrounding the brain were also torn by these steel thorns, breaking and spraying blood.

A missile took off, drew an arc in the air, and hit the brain accurately.

This was not a missile in the true sense.

It was an attack on the recipient at the mental level by the ship spirit in the consciousness space, using its mental power combined with part of Chen Ming's mental power.

It was just the external manifestation of the consciousness space, which transformed this attack into the most subjectively acceptable form for Chen Ming to see the effect.

As the first missile took off, more and more missiles appeared in Chen Ming's consciousness space, whistling towards the brain.

And the ship spirit also began to manufacture more complex and diverse weapons and equipment, that is, using more complex and more efficient means of mental attack.

The isolated island even became a firepower fortress under the transformation of the ship spirit, fighting against the foreign abnormal creatures.

Even though it was attacked by Chen Ming and the ship spirit at the same time, the recipient still controlled the brain and tried to eat away at Chen Ming's isolated island.

But he soon discovered that the damage he caused to the island by tearing off the steel every time was nothing compared to the damage the island caused him in return.

Even though his size indicated that his mental power was even greater than Chen Ming's.

But the quality of Chen Ming's mental power was several times higher than his.

Under such a mental power exchange ratio, if he continued like this, his ending would be no different from his ending outside.

And.

At this moment, the giant biological spaceship of the Queen of Insects finally arrived near Chen Ming's island.

The mighty plasma acid cannons, countless biological missiles, biological fighters, and countless insect eggs were instantly sprayed by the Queen of Insects to the brain of the recipient.

The power from the Queen of Insects bombarded the brain clinging to the edge of the island, shattering piece after piece of flesh and blood.

There were also a large number of parasites that entered the brain through the cracks torn on the surface of the brain by the other flying insects, constantly destroying the structure of the brain.

The parasites seemed to be parasitic, but in fact, the Queen Worm was piercing the spirit power into the receiver's spirit power, disrupting his control of spirit power.

The receiver had been unable to gain an advantage over Chen Ming from the beginning.

This was even more so after the Queen Worm joined the battlefield. The Queen Worm's arrival became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The receiver's brain had begun to decay.

This meant that his spirit power had begun to dry up, and he was about to take a half-step into death, just like him in reality.

The madness that the single eye in the center of the receiver's brain could see became more and more serious.

Even if he was going to die, he must not be the only one to die.

The crazy and resentful eyes fell on Chen Ming, who was at the top of the mountain of spaceship wreckage.

All the exposed flesh and blood tissues on the giant brain suddenly began to shrink, and all the intestinal star rings retracted into the brain.

The receiver's mental power was fully turned to defense, but a force of dimensional infection that Chen Ming was very familiar with filled all parts of the brain.

The receiver's mental power was still declining.

But just before this mental power completely declined, a crack suddenly appeared in the center of the giant brain, running from head to tail.

And behind the crack this time, there was no eyeball, no giant mouth, no flesh and blood.

Instead, Chen Ming had seen a dark abyss with little scarlet starlight.

That was another dimension.

Chen Ming had no way to resist the power of the dimension, and the endless suction from the crack dragged his consciousness into the abyss.

"Die... with me..."

This was the last sentence Chen Ming heard before he was dragged into the abyss.

His consciousness was torn and dragged crazily in the process of being dragged into the abyss.

Horrible scars appeared on his consciousness,

He struggled desperately, using his mental power as an anchor to continuously root in the way he was swallowed into the abyss.

However, these anchors did not delay the attack. After suffering a severe blow, his consciousness was eventually dragged into the scarlet abyss and touched the red starlight.

Half a second after Chen Ming's consciousness touched the unknown dimension.

The recipient's mental power was completely exhausted, and the breath of death also emerged from his body.

This was the price he paid for opening the abyss rift.

At that time, the suction force on consciousness finally stopped.

Chen Ming, who had just touched another dimension, immediately escaped from the abyss with the help of the anchor he had just set up.

With the rescue of the ship spirit, he returned to his isolated island.

And it was in this short period of less than a second.

All the steel forests on the entire isolated island in Chen Ming's consciousness space turned into scarlet rust.

This is a sign of complete exhaustion of mental power.

Chen Ming is now relying purely on willpower to persist.

But willpower also has a limit.

Chen Ming's mental power was so exhausted that his willpower could not hold on forever. He could not hold on any longer.

Even if he destroyed the recipient on the spiritual level, he did not use up such a huge amount of mental power, but the half-second contact with the scarlet abyss almost killed him there.

The ship spirits eagerly surrounded Chen Ming's consciousness, and a gentle mental power continued to heal Chen Ming's mental damage.

But Chen Ming finally couldn't resist, and his consciousness suddenly left the consciousness space.

At the moment when he left the consciousness space.

Whether it was An Wuping, the prosthesis of the 14th Legion, or Chen Ming himself, they all collapsed to the ground at the same time, gasping for breath.

Chen Ming's eyes trembled unconsciously, his hands trembled constantly, and he climbed up from the ground with great effort.

The terminal that had just fallen to the ground beside him was making a sound of a call being dialed in.

Chen Ming ignored it.

He suddenly seemed to realize something. He no longer needed to rely on the starry sky cracks on the source of condensed spiritual energy that the ship spirit had transformed.

He could directly rely on his will to force his way back to the consciousness space.

The ship spirit was still healing the wounds on his consciousness body at this time.

Chen Ming's consciousness body stood up.

He looked at the position of the recipient just now.

After the recipient died, the body of the giant brain had left the island, suspended in the universe, and was slowly decomposing the pure spiritual power.

Everything looked good.

A closed crack already existed in his consciousness space.

During the decomposition of the brain's body, the crack did not disappear, but was closed and continued to float there.

From that crack, there was a slight leakage of the power belonging to that dimension that his consciousness space could withstand and absorb.

He seemed to... become the successor of the dimensional infection power.

But it seems inappropriate to say that it was an inheritance.

Because the recipient did not transfer the power to him, but the recipient used his own power belonging to the dimensional infection to open a crack leading to another dimension.

Chen Ming's consciousness was dragged into another dimension, another crazy and chaotic dimension.

The madness of this dimension is not pure madness, but a kind of madness of "having everything".

It's like a library full of books.

Ordinary libraries allow people to go in and search and read at will.

But at the moment of entering this library, all the knowledge will flow into the brain of the entrant for no reason.

This is madness.

Of course, it is not appropriate to say that it is knowledge.

Because these things are not organized knowledge in Chen Ming's personal experience.

Instead, it is closer to making people experience an extra feeling, and experience the existence of psychic effects and psychic knowledge from the feeling.

It is precisely because some people cannot bear this feeling.

As a result, all the cells of that person, which contain everything in the human body, were completely filled up under the effect of this "knowledge", and lost their original functions.

They became flesh and blood that could not be completely fixed.

This is why Chen Ming has never understood why all kinds of flesh and blood tissues will appear once something related to psychic energy goes wrong.

These flesh and blood filled with "knowledge" cannot be understood by ordinary people.

But this is the truth.

Chen Ming really felt this this time.

And in that terrifying world, he obtained the "knowledge" of the upper limit that he could bear. It was this knowledge that brought him the power from the dimensional infection.

This power was obtained by himself, and the recipient only gave him the key to open the door of the library.

The power of the dimensional infection that truly belonged to the recipient has completely dissipated... No, it was dissipated and dissipated to the outside world.

Although Chen Ming's mental power is still in a state of exhaustion, after he has passed the limit and the spiritual power of the recipient after his death, his consciousness is extremely active at this time.

He is constantly thinking.

Thinking about the less than a second he entered that dimension.

In that less than a second, Chen Ming saw a lot of unknown things, which blocked his brain and made his brain think.

Only thinking can make his brain active and relieve the pain of his brain being filled.

In his opinion, the power of dimension infection is wrong after mastering new knowledge.

This power actually comes from the power of that dimension, that is, the power of dimension.

Chen Ming's mental power suddenly weakened again.

But as his mental power weakened, the effect of his psychic power was significantly enhanced.

Relying on the power of the dimension, Chen Ming has a deeper understanding of his own psychic power.

He finally understood why the afterglow core controlled by him could not use psychic power transmission.

The reason is also very simple, that is, his psychic power has been linked to this dimension that gave him new power since the moment he first awakened.

He used this dimension to transport materials thousands of light years apart in the normal universe.

Although the knowledge Chen Ming has learned so far cannot explain why his psychic power is involved in this dimension.

But he can be sure that this is the case in real time.

And in such a dimension full of crazy "knowledge", if an individual with independent consciousness enters and is dragged into the abyss, death will only be his final destination.

Individuals with hive consciousness, such as the Zerg, also preserve the consciousness of the sub-individuals through the hive thinking network built with Chen Ming as the core, and transport the body without consciousness and stuff the consciousness back to ensure safety.

Then things are actually simple.

Chen Ming patted the ship spirit that had been helping him recover, and his consciousness returned to reality.

His psychic energy fluctuations mobilized the power of part of the dimension he now controlled, protecting a gamma-level individual far away in the glory of the sky, and protecting the consciousness in the afterglow core.

The next moment, a gamma-level afterglow core appeared in Chen Ming's palm.

The individual consciousness inside is still alive.

This is what Chen Ming learned from the dimensional infection.

And more than that.

Chen Ming put away the core of the afterglow and gathered the power of the dimension in his palm.

He waved his arm in front of him, and a deep abyss appeared in front of him.

His psychic power was no longer limited to the ability to transform materials, but could use the power of the dimension to directly transmit.

Chen Ming was about to step in.

But before he stepped in, he stopped.

Not enough.

His ability was not enough to protect him in that dimension, and the sense of danger was stimulating his brain.

It was not that Chen Ming's mental power was not enough to transmit.

But there

Something would come to trouble him

Those who really created the dimensional infection might be the existence of the native creatures of this dimension.

With Chen Ming's current ability, it was not enough to get out of their hands,

It still could not directly use psychic power to transmit itself.

Although the mark of the dimensional infection coordinates was Chen Ming's own body.

But the mark of this dimension on him was his consciousness.

As long as his consciousness went in, something would definitely happen.

I don't know what those who can survive in this dimension are.

I can only say.

After coming into contact with the power of the dimension, Chen Ming's own power has begun to change in a more outrageous direction.

The changes in the previous repair psychic power can actually show clues. How can the repair psychic power directly repair the essence of an object?

So the modification ability has become an existence close to the space ability, and Chen Ming immediately accepted it.

It will probably not be long before Chen Ming's other spiritual powers will also undergo new changes under the blessing of the dimension power.

It just takes time for him to get familiar with it, that's all.

However, Chen Ming suddenly found that he seemed to have some content that he didn't need to be familiar with spiritual power, and could be explained directly through the knowledge he obtained in that dimension.

For example, when Qianmian copied An Wuping's spiritual power, it was not the spiritual power of the Queen of Insects that was copied, but a spiritual power that integrated all of An Wuping's abilities.

This special situation seems to be related to Chen Ming himself.
