Him and their stars.

Chapter 22 History vs. Psionics
Yu Lian dared to assure the teacher Li, whom he admired most, that he really didn't like psionic energy.

Yu Lian believes that there are three main reasons why the technology tree of the entire galaxy, and even the known civilizations of the entire universe, is completely crooked.One of them is the so-called psychic power.Of course, some people call it Yuanneng, some people call it Force Force, and some people call it You Neng. Anyway, that's about it.

Compared with the "scientific" explanation, this is a mysterious and mysterious energy factor that spreads in any corner of the universe but cannot be captured by instruments at all.Talented individuals can use their existence to strengthen themselves, communicate with consciousness, tear the sky apart, and traverse the galaxy, just like those omnipotent gods in classical legends.

Because of the existence of these superhuman beings, the state of civilization in the entire cosmos is a little confusing.Fatalism, animism, and even bloodline theory are popular in the world.Nothing materialistic, nothing scientific, nothing logical, nothing progressive.

After all, there really are individuals in this world who can blow up space battleships with their bare hands!Everyone's confusion is understandable.

When Yu Lian first passed through in his last life, he thought that he had come to the future cosmic age, and that he might become an "illiterate primitive". He suffered a great cultural shock for a while, but soon Found out that this is not the case at all.

Before the 15th century, the history of the earth was the same as he knew it, but then, changes happened with the arrival of the aliens.

When the cosmic exploration ships of the empire and the alliance came to the solar system at almost the same time, they found that there was an individual almost identical to them in a corner of the galaxy. They were quite happy and came to this place in an almost ecstatic and rude way. On the remote blue planet of the third cantilever of the Milky Way.

What a great time!In the vast sea of ​​stars, the "same clan" was discovered, which is simply the magic work of the spirit of the universe.The star-seeing officials of the empire and the academicians of the Academy of Sciences of the alliance lingered in the Forbidden City and the Holy Palace, admiring the primitive but splendid civilization; the astral knights and guerrillas toasted and sang under the overlook of the Sphinx and the Leshan Giant Buddha. , and invited the earthlings who bowed down to them to join their feasts.

The earthlings who were just about to enter the era of great voyages have not had time to explore the planet under their feet, so they were brought on the road of no return where the technology and civilization tree were completely crooked.

And then, the subsequent historical process that Yu Lian was familiar with no longer exists.

Yes, although this is also "Earth", it is not Yu Lian's hometown.

Yu Lian, who came from the materialistic earth world, was very angry. For a time, he felt that the so-called psionicists were the culprits who made the history and beliefs he knew to disappear completely!He felt that the entire galaxy was hopelessly idealistic idiots except himself.

Isn't the scientific worldview with strict and well-organized logic fragrant?The so-called psychic energy, the so-called "star ring in the spiritual universe" of the so-called opening of Lao Shizi, doesn't it all sound like metaphysics?
I, Yu Lian, a great young man who has received twenty years of education in the materialist worldview, will never become an idealist idiot even if he is beaten to death by a psionic ripple, in a black hole of death!
Perhaps this kind of entanglement made his spirit more divided than ordinary people, so he opened his own star ring in such a confused way.

And then, it smells so good...

Yu Lian quickly comforted himself, the so-called materialism is that existence is reasonable, and the reason why it cannot be classified by a rigorous scientific model.Just because the level of science hasn't reached that point yet.

After all, we can't be a pseudo-materialist with a fundamentalist metaphysics!This is to be criticized by Teacher Li.

Therefore, psionic energy is really fragrant!

Very logical!Very materialistic!No problem!

Of course, none of the above is the point.

Let's go back to psychic.

This kind of supernatural power, which almost represents the most powerful and mysterious power in the universe, can only be awakened on natural life forms with natural talents.The method of awakening varies from person to person, and there is indeed no authoritative teaching material, but once awakened, no matter what path of cultivation he embarks on, his soul and body strength will enter the extraordinary realm.

This could also explain why the support team at Depot 12 was attacked by the swarm.For a swarm whose ultimate goal is the evolution of the entire population, what could be more fragrant than the genes of the Awakened?

Except for the queen who fought with Yu Lian several times in the previous life, the entire huge swarm of trillions of worms has never given birth to an individual with psionic power-in later generations, many people have guessed that the swarm has It was not a natural birth, but a biological weapon made by a certain force. Unfortunately, it got out of control, so it became a natural disaster that plagued all civilizations in the galaxy.

However, the more it does not exist, the more it is necessary to prove its existence.The more unavailable it is, the more it is desired.

In later generations, the elites of the swarm have tirelessly hunted down psykers from all over the universe, as evidenced by this.

Ina Shinika, the later bandit number "Bright Eyed Witch", the most famous sniper in the galaxy, the heroine of the Blue Star Community, one of the symbols of unyielding resistance in the eyes of the earth, is a powerful psionic power By.

Of course, at the age of twenty-three, she has not awakened yet, and is at best a sensitive person.

Whether it is sensitive or not, in the entire galaxy, only the Astral Knights of the Empire, the Star Guerrilla Association of the Alliance, and the transcendent Void Temple have very metaphysical detection methods; but Yu Lian knows that there should be bugs too. .

For the Zerg, the genetic information of an unawakened sensitive person might be more valuable than the awakened one.

The swarms that are now wretchedly developing have not yet had the strength to attack the big cities and the Galaxy mainland, but as long as they have the opportunity, of course they will not let go of their targets in the wild.

Yu Lian still had some doubts.In his previous life, he hadn't heard of the attack from Ina, and the subsequent siege of Port Tulong was the first time she stepped onto the stage of history.

However, if I hadn't been reborn, wouldn't the "Bright Eyed Witch" have to die at that time?

In addition, he carefully searched the memory of his previous life again, and determined that there were no traces left by the insect swarm in the entire Tulong Harbor incident.And the real record of the first official appearance of the swarm was indeed several years later.

In other words, the swarm was not ready to appear, but because of my rebirth, they changed their original purpose and appeared earlier?
Well, for the swarm, two genes are more valuable than one sensitive person.

That is, I'm already starting to change history?
Uh... Although I said that, in the final analysis, it is just Yu Lian's guess. Since there is no basis, I can only temporarily suppress these doubts in my heart.

In short, let's bring the perspective back to reality.Yu Lian believed that even if his rebirth and attached body really caused some kind of butterfly effect, the swarm should not appear again for a while.Their current policy is wretched development, and they dare not be exposed to the sight of major civilizations before they form a scale.Therefore, the closer everyone is to Tulong's battlefield, the safer they will be.

While thinking about it, Yu Lian said casually: "Well, I have to ask what kind of experience is psionic energy... Except for the fact that the physical energy is much more abundant than before, it is probably because the sensibility is stronger. However, this also varies from person to person. Yes. Every Awakened individual has a different understanding. Some people don’t know where they heard the nonsense babble, and they insist that they have been guided by the spirit of the universe, pretending to be a ghost, conjuring tricks, and talking nonsense. There are many flawed theories, but in the end, there are always dignitaries who regard him as a spiritual leader. So, don’t think that being an awakened person must be a good thing. If your will can’t control power, you will become a slave of power.”

Most of the people showed the expression of "you don't understand what I said, but it's really amazing", but the old mechanic shuddered, looked around subconsciously, and then said helplessly: " This, sir, is also said here, but not in the mainland! Especially in public."

"Uh... what did I say?"

"The All Souls Unity Church still has the support of quite a few big people, and there are also a lot of fanatics. If you can't hide your words, it will affect your future, but there will really be fanatics to attack you. I used to know one Reporter... hey, forget it."

"Oh, you said the one that Master Wang made? I swear to the spirit of the universe, I have no mapping."

Yes, this is not a mapping, it is almost equivalent to pointing directly at the nose and scolding.

Ina probably didn't want to continue this topic, and interjected: "So, how do you feel about those burrowing worms? Some kind of psionic skill?"

Do you still remember this one?Yu Lian silently rolled his eyes in his heart, and then said solemnly: "This is the same as catching a marmot in our hometown. Open your hand and press it on the ground to feel the slight vibration of the ground. As long as it is moving, there will be a There must be a specific rhythm for vibration. One, two, three, it is approaching, one, two, three, four, it is about to prepare to attack, and the interval between five and six is ​​less than two meters away from you. Seven to eight , three meters. Nine to ten, five meters. Each finger joint corresponds to the target orientation, for example, the first joint of the middle finger is the three o'clock direction."

Everyone was in awe, either still ignorant or stern, but Ina was still suspicious: "Is this a serious nonsense?"

The hunters on the Green Garden Star really catch the silver-bearded mouse like this, but there are a few small differences in the details, and isn't this less scientific than psionics?
"Okay, let's talk nonsense. When I was in the academy, I also carefully read the early investigation report of the scientific expedition team to Xinyumen. I think there should be a civilization left by the enlightened people."

"The enlightened one?" Youyou's face was full of confusion.

"...I don't want to start science from scratch, and go back to middle school to read books for another two years. In short, the disappeared enlighteners have left a civilizational legacy everywhere in the universe, which is no secret for future generations to develop. The reason why I am willing to come I served here because I wanted to have a look. Then, when I woke up, I did have an inexplicable impulse, which led me to come here. Perhaps, this is the spirit of the universe and the ancient ancestors. Give me inspiration. I thought about it, we must retreat anyway. Since there is a great possibility of encountering the enemy on the front, it is better to go to the mountains to the north and try our luck. If there are really relics of enlightened people, it is It can help us escape. And that's what it is... Psykers, you must trust your self-awareness!"
