Chapter 315 Love
Love.
This trait is a special trait of a spirit stone that Chen Ming talked about with He Gu when he was riding He Gu's spaceship some time ago.
Spirit stones with this trait usually appear in pairs.
It has a heart-shaped pattern similar to infatuation, but it is softer. When two spirit stones are attached, the patterns on the surface can be seen to be connected together.
Although its basic effect is the same as that of ordinary spirit stones.
It has the same effect as ordinary spirit stones, which is to have some influence on the psychological state of psychics and provide a small increase in mental power.
But the biggest difference between it and ordinary spirit stones is that it appears in pairs and has the special effect of love.
When two love spirit stones are held by different psychics, the two psychics can build a mental power connection channel based on this spirit stone through the spirit stone.
Based on their own spiritual power and mental power, they can generate mental amplification for each other.
And they can also give each other emotional comfort, the effect is a bit similar to tenderness.
In addition, this spiritual stone can also allow psychics to sense each other's mental state.
This allows two psychics connected by the love spiritual stone to give each other more help in mental power enhancement in critical moments.
The premise of all this is that the two psychics have "love" for each other to be effective.
The higher the degree of love for each other, the better the effect.
It is said that after the degree of love is high, psychics can directly communicate with each other.
Although the empire already has superluminal communication means, this ability is not too important.
But the entire universe is not always full of empire's superluminal communication base stations, so this ability is still valuable.
And more importantly, when the degree of love between two psychics exceeds a certain limit, psychics can even use each other's psychic effects.
Of course, the most outrageous ability is currently only a theoretical inference of the Psychic Research Institute.
It is still unclear what the actual effect is.
After all, the conditions for using this love spiritual stone are somewhat harsh.
It requires both users to be psychics and have genuine love for each other.
And the love trait will also be affected by psychic objects of other properties.
That is to say, for ordinary psychics, they could have psychic equipment of one nature and spirit stones of another nature, separate them from each other, and use them only when needed.
But the love spirit stone requires both psychics to keep wearing it for a long time and cannot be replaced at will.
There are psychic couples, but many of them are purely political marriages for interests.
Only a small number of psychic couples have pure feelings.
This greatly narrows the scope of application of the love spirit stone and reduces the possibility of this spirit stone being studied.
And.
The love spirit stone has negative effects.
That is, when two psychics use the spirit stone to create a mental connection, this connection cannot be broken.
Once it is broken, it will cause a great mental shock to the user.
Once the love is lost, the connection will break automatically.
Not only is the effect of the Love Spirit Stone in name only, but if the two parties are not prepared, the consequences are quite serious.
There is another more serious situation, that is, the death of one party in the love relationship.
Once this happens, the soul of the other party in the relationship will suffer an unprecedented blow.
There is still relatively little research on this, and there are only two cases even in the Empire.
One case is a psychic couple with Love Spirit Stones. After one of them died in an accident, the other psychic immediately fell into irreversible madness.
The other case is slightly better.
It is a psychic couple over 100 years old with Love Spirit Stones. One of them is about to die of brain death due to old age.
Brain death is a link that cannot be avoided by current technology.
The couple chose to actively cooperate with the experiment of the Fanchao Research Institute.
At the moment before death, the love mental power connection was disconnected by external coercive means.
The result is that the other person who is still alive did not fall into madness, and even under the protection of the experimenters, it can be said that the person was not injured at all, and the mental shock from the connection was completely blocked.
However, the psychic died of grief and old age not long after, which could be considered a natural death.
But that was a special case.
It was when the person was close to death and there was a psychic with enough ability to protect him, and he could ensure the safety of the psychic stone user when one of the two parties connected by the Love Psychic Stone died.
In other cases, death was always unexpected.
Therefore, the Love Psychic Stone itself can only be regarded as a rare thing. Under normal circumstances, it is only worth the same as an ordinary Psychic Stone.
However, the Legion Commander took it out and gave it to Chen Ming at this time, which was the most suitable gift.
The value of the spiritual stone itself and its symbolic meaning, even if it is not carried for a long time due to negative effects, it is still an extremely suitable gift.
Chen Ming and Cheng Xinghai are both psychics. Although their feelings are not deep, they have a certain foundation. It is not a pure marriage without any feelings. It can be used.
"Thank you."
After confirming the gift, Chen Ming thanked the Legion Commander and then put away the spiritual stone.
According to his idea, this pair of spiritual stones should be made into engagement rings, in pairs, just right.
Seeing Chen Ming decisively accept the gift, the Legion Commander probably knew that this matter today would end here.
"As long as you are satisfied."
"Okay, then I really have to leave this time. I will see you again when I come back."
After that, he turned and left the building and boarded the shuttle he took when he came.
There was no dragging.
The Legion Commander is a character.
He handled the matter perfectly, so Chen Ming did not feel disgusted at all.
But at least Chen Ming was satisfied with the result, so there was nothing to say.
At the same time as the legion commander boarded the shuttle.
The cruiser hovering in the sky was dismantled and disappeared in the air.
Chen Ming and Bai Quan looked at each other and left the building afterwards.
Although Chen Ming did not cause much damage this time.
But at the headquarters, all the things controlled by Chen Ming had to be replaced, and some buildings that Chen Ming had visited personally needed to be rebuilt.
Of course, these were not the parts that Chen Ming needed to deal with.
If the legion needed it, he could even help to dismantle the building and take away all the things he controlled.
Anyway, it was just a matter of raising his hand.
Bai Quan had a lot of things to do, and he separated from Chen Ming after leaving the building.
He couldn't just pat his butt and leave with Chen Ming like this, he still had to deal with the aftermath, and he had to deal with Qiu Bowen alone.
Then Chen Ming also had some things waiting for him to deal with.
For example, get Cheng Xinghe out of the interrogation room.
Chen Ming's shuttle quickly returned to the police station.
As soon as it landed,
Chen Ming saw Cheng Xinghai rushing to him anxiously, grabbing his hand and asking, "Are you okay?"
Chen Ming opened his arms and showed himself intact; "Isn't it good?"
Cheng Xinghai breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm fine."
"But why did you do such a dangerous thing."
Obviously, Cheng Xinghai also saw the Yuhui cruiser in the sky above the center of the headquarters.
She knew without thinking that it was definitely Chen Ming who did it.
The cruiser suddenly jumped halfway, and Chen Ming didn't come back, which made her worried for a long time, fearing that Chen Ming would get into trouble.
When the cruiser jumped to the sky above the city center again, she was even more worried, worried that Chen Ming would do something irrational.
Although the worst-case scenario did not happen during these two time periods, when Chen Ming dismantled the cruiser and saw it torn into pieces, Cheng Xinghai's worries reached their peak.
Fortunately, Chen Ming finally appeared in front of him intact.
Facing Cheng Xinghai's worries, Chen Ming didn't know what to say. Someone cared about his safety, which made him feel cared for, but also made him feel pressured.
When you are alone, you can do whatever you want. If you die, it's your own problem.
But if someone cares about him, then he must consider the consequences of his actions.
Fortunately, Chen Ming is now out there with prostheses, so Chen Ming is not worried that he will accidentally kill the prosthesis and make people too sad.
"It's okay, you see I'm back?"
"Yeah."
Cheng Xinghai didn't persuade Chen Ming too much not to do dangerous things. Chen Ming would be responsible for himself. At least he came back safely.
"Then now we..."
"Now that the matter has been resolved, let's go and get Cheng Xinghe out."
Cheng Xinghai didn't expect Chen Ming to give her this answer: "Has it been resolved?"
"Yes, it took a little effort, but at least the result is good."
"What did you do?"
"I arrested a few people, threatened others with the cruiser, and then the corps commander came back to talk to me just now, and the matter was resolved. Yes, that's it."
Cheng Xinghai stretched out his hand to cover his slightly opened mouth and said, "It's not that simple... It feels... It's really dangerous."
"It's okay. If I hadn't done this, we should have just had dinner and were still thinking about how to get Cheng Xinghe out of the police station."
"Well..."
Cheng Xinghai knew that Chen Ming was right. If Chen Ming didn't do anything, this would be the most likely result.
But she also knew that what Chen Ming did was definitely not as easy as he said.
There is a level 6 psychic stationed at the headquarters.
Level 6 psychics have the power to destroy galaxies.
Even if the ability of this level 6 psychic is limited in the headquarters, it should be difficult for ordinary psychics to resist.
If Chen Ming wants to do something in the headquarters, he will inevitably face the level 6 psychic.
Moreover, when the legion commander leaves the headquarters, the generals stationed in the headquarters and the level 6 psychics of the headquarters are the biggest rules of the headquarters.
But Chen Ming just ignored the existence of the rules. He used violent means in the headquarters and drove out a cruiser of Yuhui in the headquarters, trampling on the rules.
Even after trampling on the rules, he returned to the rules and did not become the enemy of the rules because of trampling on the rules.
So far, it seems that no one has ever done this.
At least in her impression, nothing like this has ever happened in the headquarters.
Cheng Xinghai looked at Chen Ming with something in his eyes.
Chen Ming noticed this and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Cheng Xinghai shook his head.
She had been under the restrictions of the rules for the past 19 years.
So she had a new feeling for Chen Ming, who had the ability to break the rules against himself and get out of it, and return to the rules and be protected by the rules.
Yearning.
She was looking forward to Chen Ming's actions today.
She was looking forward to Chen Ming's strength and courage to fight against the rules of the headquarters of the 14th Corps.
Ignore all rules, eliminate all obstacles, and personally seize the results you want.
She wanted to be someone like Chen Ming, and she also wanted to be such a powerful psychic.
"I just suddenly felt that you suddenly became a little more handsome."
Chen Ming didn't quite understand what Cheng Xinghai meant, touched his face and asked, "Really?"
"Really, if you weren't so bad at playing games, you would be more handsome."
"That can't be helped."
Compared to the simulated battle, the game has too many restrictions, and Chen Ming's psychic power can't be used.
At least for now, Chen Ming is not as good as Cheng Xinghai in pure command skills.
So Chen Ming is easy to get beaten in some strategic games.
Unless it is a game that purely tests reaction speed, Chen Ming has an advantage that no one can match with the strength of consciousness and the increase in thinking speed given by the psychic.
Then Cheng Xinghai forbade Chen Ming to use abilities that exceed ordinary people's abilities when playing such games with her since he found something wrong before.
Seeing that Chen Ming looked like he wanted to play badly, Cheng Xinghai smiled and took Chen Ming's arm.
"Okay, let's go find Xinghe first."
"Yes."
Just after walking two steps into the police station, Chen Ming suddenly thought of something else and asked, "By the way, has the rumor problem been solved? If not, I'll solve it."
"No need, it's already been solved."
"So soon?"
"Yes, someone took a photo of you and me meeting in the library."
Chen Ming immediately thought of the person he saw in the library before and said, "Let me see it."
Cheng Xinghai's face turned slightly red. After a moment of hesitation, he opened the terminal and handed it to Chen Ming.
"Here."
Chen Ming took a look at the terminal.
It was indeed the perspective of the person in the library before.
He took a photo of Cheng Xinghai and Chen Ming looking at each other in the library. Cheng Xinghai crossed his hands behind his back and stared at Chen Ming's photo like a girl who fell in love for the first time.
It is completely possible to completely break the rumor that Cheng Xinghai was forced to commit himself to Chen Ming under threat.
A talented man and a beautiful woman are a perfect match. Is it the turn of those monsters on the school forum to question them?
Time went by in a blink of an eye and it was the next day.
Chen Ming originally lived with Bai Quan in the dormitory of the teaching park.
However, early in the morning, Bai Quan took Chen Ming to his home in the headquarters.
Today, the old admiral was not feeling well, so Bai Quan had time to go home and take Chen Ming to prepare for the engagement banquet.
Bai Quan's home is relatively close to the suburbs in the city. It is a special area for the families of active military personnel to live in. There are guards on duty, and safety is guaranteed.
Bai Quan landed here in a shuttle and took Chen Ming all the way back home.
The one who opened the door was Chen Ming's future mother-in-law, who was about 30 years old, quite young, and looked very gentle and virtuous.
Even though Bai Quan did not go home for many years due to his own work, there was no complaint in her eyes when she looked at Bai Quan.
It must be said that Bai Quan was lucky to adopt two orphans of his comrades at the age of 17 and finally get married.
Chen Ming met his future mother-in-law, and in the eyes of his future mother-in-law who appreciated her son-in-law, he took Chen Ming to Cheng Xinghai, who came earlier, and then continued to do his own things.
The time and place of the engagement party must be decided as early as possible, and she has to talk to the people from the wedding banquet company in advance.
The remaining Bai Quan, Cheng Xinghai, Cheng Xinghe and Chen Ming need to be responsible for more internal matters at the engagement party.
Confirm the relatives and friends to be invited to the engagement party.
Chen Ming attaches great importance to the engagement party itself, after all, it is related to his lifelong event.
But Chen Ming actually has nothing to do.
Anyway, Bai Quan and his mother-in-law are basically responsible for the engagement party.
If Chen Ming had a normal family environment, he would have to consider where to hold the engagement party, but Chen Ming is an orphan, so it is OK here at the headquarters.
Moreover, the engagement party is mostly for the elders of both sides to meet and talk about things.
The only elder on Chen Ming's side is the boss.
But the boss is not here, the boss is in Caimo, and he will not be back in a short time.
So at that time, the most it will be the entire holographic projection, which can be regarded as coming to chat casually in the name of the master.
Most things are basically decided by Chen Ming himself.
As for inviting relatives and friends.
Chen Ming doesn't have many friends.
The only people he knows who can be considered friends are the people in the Pirate Space Station, Baldy, Old Wu and the factory director.
Baldy, who has committed a crime elsewhere, will definitely not come, and Old Wu is busy and can't come either. At most, only the factory director is free to come, but it's still a bit too far.
I don't know if he can make it in time.
Chen Ming suddenly remembered that there is someone who can be found in the headquarters, He Gu.
Chen Ming originally planned to go to the Psychic Research Institute, because He Gu promised to give him a new detection device, plus the identity of an honorary member of the Psychic Research Institute promised by the legion commander, and three items on the list of items of the Psychic Research Institute that he can choose.
But now he doesn't have much time to spend on the Psychic Research Institute.
Not to mention that there is a ship research institute and a shining civilization research institute waiting for Chen Ming to go.
So don't rush for the time being.
Continue to sort out the list of invitations to be sent out.
Chen Ming looked at the list and suddenly found someone who looked familiar.
Chairman of Xinda Company, the biological father of the factory director.
Is Bai Quan familiar with him? Or is it someone else with the same name?
Chen Ming didn't understand, holding the list and asked Bai Quan: "Who is this Xu Lin?"
"Chairman of Xinda Company."
Bai Quan was inspired by him before and decided to let Cheng Xinghai try with Chen Ming.
It was Xu Lin who brought up this matter that led to the perfect result for him now.
Xu Lin is at least half a matchmaker, so he must be invited to the engagement party this time.
Chen Ming nodded and said: "Oh, that's fine. If he wants to come, then I have to ask another person."
Bai Quan thought about it and thought of some information he had investigated when he was not very familiar with Chen Ming.
The person Chen Ming was talking about should refer to Xu Lin's illegitimate son, Lu Shengsi, who was the director of the maintenance factory where Chen Ming worked when he just came back.
So he didn't ask any more questions: "Okay, ask me if you have any questions. I'll go out first."
Bai Quan said hello and went out directly, because he had to invite some people in person, such as his old boss.
A few minutes later, Cheng Xinghe suddenly shouted that he wanted to find friends he knew in school, and disappeared at home.
After Cheng Xinghe closed the door.
For a while, only Chen Ming and Cheng Xinghai were left here.
Cheng Xinghai felt that the atmosphere in the room was gradually becoming more and more ambiguous.
In order to prevent some things from happening in advance, she said to Chen Ming: "Can I ask you something?"
"Want to play games?"
"...No."
"I want to ask you how you became so strong?"
"I heard from Uncle Bai that you just awakened your psychic power two years ago, but my psychic power has been awakened for three years and has not improved."
After awakening her psychic power, she went through a complete standardized education for psychics.
She has also been meditating every day and constantly practicing her own psychic power.
But the effect is obviously not ideal.
She has never had a suitable person to talk to about these things, and only now can she ask Chen Ming this question.
"This..."
To be honest, Chen Ming is a self-taught person. At most, his boss guides him in the right direction of thinking and lets Chen Ming find the right direction to practice his spiritual power.
There is no real teaching to become stronger. Chen Ming has to explore it himself, plus Chen Ming's talent.
Cheng Xinghai's talent may not be as outrageous as his. At most, he can use the method he usually uses to practice to give Cheng Xinghai a try.
Chen Ming thought about what he has now...
There are only three spiritual stones, love, whisper, and crazy words.
Love is impossible to take out now.
As for the remaining two...
Chen Ming took out a silent alloy box from his pocket and handed it to Cheng Xinghai.
"Try this."
Cheng Xinghai took it and asked, "What is this?"
"It's for training. Touch the truth."
Cheng Xinghai opened the box and carefully reached in to touch the whispering spirit stone with twisted patterns.
She frowned and said, "I feel a noisy sound in my ears. It's so uncomfortable."
"It's normal to feel uncomfortable. You need to use your mental power to resist this sound. Your mental power will grow in the process of fighting against this sound. That's how I got here."
"Slowly start from this kind of spirit stone with a relatively mild nature, and finally change to a spirit stone with a more extreme nature."
Cheng Xinghai touched the spirit stone in the box again and asked, "Is this also considered a relatively mild nature?"
"Of course, the extreme nature is here."
Chen Ming pulled out a revolver from his waist. At the bottom of the revolver's grip was a spirit stone, the Words of Madness.
"No feeling."
Chen Ming did not respond to Cheng Xinghai, but held her hand.
"What are you doing..."
When Cheng Xinghai tried to pull her hand out gently.
Chen Ming's mental power protected her consciousness, and then Chen Ming released some power of the crazy language spirit stone.
The dark distortion that was almost visible to the naked eye occupied Cheng Xinghai's vision.
Only a second later, Chen Ming immediately used his resonance with the spirit stone to retract the dark distortion into the spirit stone.
"How does it feel?"
Chen Ming asked Cheng Xinghai the question, but Cheng Xinghai did not respond at this time, but fell on the table.
She fainted.
"This..."
It should be that the stimulation of the crazy language power is too terrifying.
Even if Chen Ming has fully protected Cheng Xinghai's consciousness and will not let her be affected by any consciousness, this extreme nature can directly affect people from the cognitive level.
It's like a child who has never seen a horror movie being scared by a ghost.
Although there was no substantial damage, Cheng Xinghai fainted. This should be regarded as the body's self-protection function.
Chen Ming has done a complete protection, but this purely visual brief contact still made Cheng Xinghai unable to bear it.
She is a little too fragile.
It seems that Cheng Xinghai's mental strength is really not strong. If you want her to grow up, you have to use some extreme means.
After confirming again that Cheng Xinghai was only temporarily fainted by the influence of the crazy language spirit stone on the real environment, and she must be fine.
Chen Ming thought about what he should do now.
Now he and Cheng Xinghai are alone in a room with only the two of them, and Cheng Xinghai fainted and has no ability to move at all.
After serious consideration, Chen Ming carried Cheng Xinghai to her bedroom here and threw her on the bed.
Then he moved a chair from outside to the bedside.
Chen Ming glanced at Cheng Xinghai again.
She seemed to have dreamed of something horrible in her sleep, her expression was nervous and flustered, and sweat kept oozing from her forehead.
It seems that even if she is protected, it is a bit too much to let her come into contact with the Words of Madness...
Chen Ming gently held Cheng Xinghai's hand, and his gentle mental power continued to soothe her subconscious mind, maintaining her mental state.
After the mental power soothing lasted for a few minutes, Cheng Xinghai's expression relaxed.
Chen Ming also leaned back in the chair.
However, he held Cheng Xinghai's hand and did not let go.
