Chapter 84 ·Connection, Isu
"Otherwise, do you think I bought a spiritual heart connection?" Zhan Lan said angrily to him, and then returned to his original gentle mode under normal circumstances. She raised a finger, and a certain invisible sense of connection appeared in the perceptions of all the reincarnators around the conference table. Immediately afterwards, a silent voice appeared.
[The Lord God told me that as long as it is a place that I scan with my mental power, I can establish a spiritual link with the intelligent life there. The effect is to directly sense the surface consciousness of the other party and establish a certain channel, so if I just talk, I can do it without asking for permission, unless the other party's thinking is completely concentrated - but as of now, even if it is unlocked Reincarnators with second-level gene locks cannot do this in combat. 】
Everyone's expressions changed, while some people's faces lit up. Cheng Xiao suddenly turned into a gentleman, while Li Shuaixi, a vigorous young man, blushed slightly.
[Don’t worry, it’s one-way communication now. I can't hear what you are thinking in your mind unless I use my spiritual power to go deeper. From the top level of superficial consciousness to the middle and lower levels. Moreover, without turning on the gene lock, I can only handle three communication channels at the same time. After activating the first level, I can connect seven or eight at the same time, but I can't hold on for long...Which one of you will try it first? 】
Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses.
But Zheng Zha raised his hand first. "I'll do it, I'll do it!" He seemed to find it very novel, and there was even some impatience between his brows.
The next moment, his expression changed slightly.
"...a strange feeling, like a door in my heart was suddenly opened, and a visitor walked in. Zhan Lan, you are not looking around in my heart."
[I can only see what you are thinking, text, images...] "That's enough, don't put short movies in the link!" Zhan Lan looked annoyed.
"Ah ha ha ha..." Zheng Zha smiled awkwardly, and he saw Cheng Xiao giving him a thumbs up with admiration on his face. At the same time, Jiang Yu had also prepared his mental state.
"I'll give it a try too." He said, and silently started to use the immeasurable magical power. As a result, distracting thoughts can be restrained without opening the genetic lock. The next moment, the same feeling appeared in his cognition.
At this moment, the distance between souls is no longer a freehand word, but a realistic description. He lowered his eyes and thought about his thoughts. A door seems to appear in the cognition. And a vague shadow that looked like Zhan Lan knocked gently on the door.
He opened the door.
——Hallo World
A classic programmer joke, constructed from the depths of his heart.
[Are you a computer major? Jiang Yu? 】——Zhan Lan's voice sounded in his mind, with a little curiosity and inquiry in his tone.
——No, I just suddenly thought of this.
[Then you are really special...you are more nervous than Zheng Zha. Although my thoughts are much purer than his, it’s okay if I’m not so wary. 】
——Uh... It's my first time, so I feel like I'm not very used to it. Can you feel my emotions?
[Vaguely, I can, I feel a subtle sense of gloom when I look at you... Sorry, did I talk too much? 】
——No, it’s my problem...Can you try to connect me with other people? Like setting up a chat room?
【Huh? Is this still possible... I'll give it a try. 】
The sense of passage between the souls suddenly became blurry at this moment. The next moment, Zhan Lan's eyes suddenly became blank. The expressions of everyone present changed. And the one-way channel has become a multi-sided network.
A blank conference room appeared in Jiang Yu's awareness. It's like the small map that appears on the lower left side of the screen in an RPG game, which is inconspicuous but eye-catching. And his thoughts formed a figure with his vague outline on the conference table. And he was immediately able to communicate with Zheng Zha, whose projection also appeared in the conference room.
Link clarity,decreased. Thoughts that are not deliberately devoted to concentration cannot be released. However, this effectively eliminates the problem of subconscious leakage of inner voice. And the speed of thought communication is much faster than speaking with the mouth.
In just a moment, Jiang Yu and Zheng Zha reviewed the entire previous battle. Each side pointed out the gaps in each other's tactics, and then it just took a little time and resources to fill them. And it didn't take long for others to master the skills, or rather the courage and determination, to open the door to their hearts. We took action one after another and joined this small conference room.
A few minutes later...
Zhan Lan trembled slightly, and then exhaled a light breath. The spiritual network was interrupted, and the reincarnators also fell back to the reality of only inefficient vocal organ communication from the previous high-efficiency mental communication.
"This tangerine is quite interesting...ah, I mean the feeling." Zheng Zha cupped his chin, feeling a little unfinished. "The collision of thoughts can accelerate the burst of inspiration...I have finally experienced this. Well, it seems that I will have to buy some intelligence attributes in the future, just like Jiang Yu wants to buy neural reflexes. I have always felt that it is direct It’s quite a loss to buy properties.”
"You think it's funny, but I'm tired." Zhan Lan glared at him and pushed up her glasses - she seemed to have some deterrence in doing this now. "But I may also need to improve my intelligence attributes a little, which may allow me to adapt to multi-frequency connections faster. Only when the gene lock is turned on can I maintain team communication, which is still somewhat insufficient."
"Indeed." Chu Xuan suddenly interrupted. "However, if your intelligence attribute or gene lock level is improved, can the level of spiritual connection be deepened again?"
He spoke a little vaguely. But Zhan Lan understood it clearly.
"It can be done." Zhan Lan nodded. "Psychic link has a certain ability of mental manipulation. For a relatively weak reincarnation, even if he is unwilling to suggest a link with me, I can still forcefully enter his surface consciousness. And if my attributes are higher, or my skills are refined, A few, and I might be able to access deep consciousness... In fact, if it were an ordinary person without enhancements, I would be able to do that right now.”
Her mental strength and intelligence are very high, so she does not need to restrain herself and will not cast her gaze in Li Shuaixi's direction. Of course, whether Li Shuaixi himself has the self-awareness of being an 'unenhanced ordinary person' is another matter.
"Also, in the exchange list of the Lord God, there is indeed an ability called 'Thinking Mastery'. It requires two C-level side plots to redeem it. If I redeem it, maybe a reincarnation with a gene lock lower than me, I can also control it."
She only has level one gene lock, so the only people she can control are people at level zero.
"Wow, wouldn't it be dangerous for a handsome guy like me?" Cheng Xiao took advantage of every opportunity.
Zhan Lan's response was a queen's disdainful glance.
"You?" She looked at Cheng Xiao from head to toe. Then he shook his head slightly and smiled contemptuously without explanation.
Cheng Xiao suddenly felt embarrassed and turned his head away, falling into the humiliating fate that funny people would eventually fall into.
"That would be very interesting." Chu Xuan nodded. "I noticed something. In the world of Alien, Zhan Lan's mental scanning was applied in many places. However, whether it was scanning aliens, human spaceships, or members of the team who had opened the first or second level. There was nothing The reaction of being scanned. And when I was looking through the Lord God redemption list, I found a large number of them, from accessories that purely reward points to armors that require advanced side plots. Their main functions are marked as shielding and interfering with mental power. .”
"This shows that the Lord God values those with spiritual power." Jiang Yu nodded and agreed.
"It also illustrates the importance of mental power in the team... I speculate that there is a high probability that the Samsara team we are going to fight will also have a well-equipped mental power user. And it does not rule out that the opponent's configuration is better than Zhan Lan's. The possibility." Chu Xuan gently pushed up his glasses.
"It's not a good thing to lose in the intelligence war." Zhang Jie suddenly interrupted. He only said this sentence and there was no follow-up.
For those familiar with the matter, this is undoubtedly the most favorable proof of Chu Xuan’s inference.
"...If you put it this way, we all have to purchase anti-psychic equipment." Zheng Zha frowned, and he also realized the seriousness of the problem. "Returning to Alien does not guarantee that you will be able to obtain new reward points and branch lines... Well, these anti-psychic things seem to be expensive."
"I think you should have some confidence in me, Zheng Zha." Zhan Lan glanced at him. "The enemy of a mental power user can only be another mental power user. Before you need to use anti-psychic power items, there is still my level to solve...I thought of aliens. Alien biological force fields There is the ability to block my mental scanning. And we only need to go back this time to collect some fragments or information of ancient aliens. Maybe..."
She frowned. The alien's biological force field could indeed block her scan. If you collect the corresponding materials, it may indeed come in handy in this regard. However, converting materials into entities requires considerable craftsmanship. As for Wieland Company, which does not need to face psychic users, I am afraid that even if they do develop any results, they will not be of the type related to psychic powers.
We need craftsmen, strong craftsmen, strong scientific researchers...
--researcher?
Zhan Lan raised his head and looked at Chu Xuan.
Jiang Yu also turned her gaze away and set up the stairs - "As far as I know, in a company, the most effective people are not the ones who simply ask questions. But while asking questions, they can also give answers. Employee of Feasible Solutions - Chu Xuan, I remember you said in your self-introduction that you were a scientific researcher?"
"Yes." Chu Xuan responded. "My research scope is very complex. And I am happy to continue to hold this job. In our team, we basically have the configuration of melee and long-range defense support. But there is still a lack of benefits other than reward points and side plots. Logistics candidates that translate into available resources.”
“The position was a good fit for me, and I found an enhancement that was a good fit for me.”
He raised his finger, and the Lord God's explanation light curtain immediately dropped.
——[Isu Protoss bloodline—derived from the world view of "Assassin's Creed", stronger and smarter than ordinary humans. At the same time, it is a race that is extremely good at R\u0026D and development. After redeeming this enhancement, the redeemer's perception and association abilities will be greatly improved. At the same time, redeemers will receive the right to use all known Eden artifacts and corresponding design drawings. 】
——[To redeem this bloodline, you need to pay for a B-level branch story, and the reward points are 3,000 points. 】
There is no doubt that this bloodline has almost no bonus to combat effectiveness. So much so that the Lord God had to give away a bunch of design drawings of the Eden artifacts before he could classify them into the B category. However……
For a monster like Chu Xuan, how can the slight combat power bonus brought by his bloodline compare to the effect brought by the scientific research results in his hands?
