Star Ocean: Starting from the Abandoned Mining Space Station.

Chapter 288 Star Gate Opens

In the destroyed space inside the Earth Core Furnace Energy Supply Tower.

Chen Ming finally found Qianmian, who had been hiding with the help of black mist spiritual power, after the glow of plasma completely illuminated his surroundings.

At this time, Qian Mian also relied on the stolen spiritual energy of An Wuping and had completely entered the insect form.

And from the appearance point of view, there is almost no difference from An Wuping's insect state, and it is even taller by about half a meter in size.

The spiritual energy stolen by Thousand Faces sometimes works better in his hands than the original owner.

But An Wuping's spiritual power is obviously an exception.

Chen Ming specially reduced the size of Anwu Ping's insect form to this extent, but if the size was enlarged, there would be no advantage in front of him.

But Qian Mian's understanding of An Wuping obviously didn't go as far as this.

After he absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy fluctuations and completely entered the insect state, he directly imitated Chen Ming's fighting habits when controlling An Wuping, rushed to Chen Ming's front very arrogantly, and punched out.

A dark figure walked from the shadow inside the energy supply tower to the edge of the shattered wall.

Chen Ming's head shook slightly under Qian Mian's punch.

"what?"

To be able to damage such a building so severely, and seeing how seriously injured Qian Mian was when he was knocked out of the building, the psykers inside are definitely not easy to deal with.

A gap more than ten stories high soon appeared clearly in front of everyone.

On the other side, Qianmian, who was punched away, smashed into the wall, and smashed into the industrial area, was also blinded.

But he could feel that the injuries caused by the punch just now were rapidly recovering under the influence of An Wuping's spiritual energy.

Chen Ming had no idea that Qianmian's insect form looked as good as An Wuping, but in fact it was so weak.

Moreover, the terrifying impact of this punch also caused the surrounding walls to crack. All the walls nearly ten stories high collapsed under the impact of being hit in thousands of directions.

But there is no way to completely stop the greed in everyone's hearts. The psychics who have been possessed by greed will at most hesitate because of this situation.

An unknown voice suddenly sounded not far behind Qian Mian.

Psychic energy waves wrapped around his body, and he wanted to take action against Qianmian.

The name shouted by this psyker immediately attracted all the psykers hidden in the industrial area.

Obviously his reincarnated spiritual power should be fine, but why is this?
"An Wuping!"

This seems not to be a problem with Qianmen's use of psychic energy, but rather a problem with the psychic energy that Qianmeng acquires.

You must know that the main source of An Wuping's physical strength, besides the genes of the Zerg, is the psychic power of the Zerg Queen.

He turned around again and looked in the direction of the Earth Core Furnace Power Supply Tower.

Although the Earth Core Furnace Energy Supply Tower has lost these structures, it has not swayed at all, and there is no sign of collapse at all, which is enough to show how strong this building is.

Hearing this, he immediately turned his head and saw a psyker who had heard the noise of their battle just now and came over to pick up the leak. His eyes were fixed on the body of Thousand Faces, whose carapace was broken and a large amount of gray-green blood was flowing.

In the end, you still have to fight on your own.

Who is that psyker?

soon.

As for Qianmian's current situation, it is obvious that he only has appearance and part of his abilities, and the proportion of his power that comes from the psychic energy of the Insect Queen is not high.

As for Qianmian, the moment Chen Ming's fist hit, all his carapace was shattered by the impact, and he flew backwards and hit one side of the wall of the Earth's Core Furnace Energy Supply Tower.

They were all scattered far away on top of various industrial buildings and did not approach rashly.

Qian Mian was not used to it, and climbed up despite the serious injuries on his body. Before the psyker, who had no idea of ​​his own strength, could react, he tore his throat to shreds with his claws, and then smashed it with a punch. off his head.

The smoke and dust from the collapsed building over there were quickly dissipating in the rain.

Chen Ming is now more and more confused about whether it is Qianmian's problem or An Wuping's problem.

Although Qian Mian had indeed acquired the psychic power from An Wuping that he didn't know how, when he used this psychic power, he was obviously not qualified in terms of the strength of the Insect Queen's psychic power. of.

He couldn't understand why he had completely absorbed An Wuping's spiritual energy fluctuations, and when recreating his spiritual energy, he completely followed An Wuping's spiritual energy fluctuations, but in the end, when he boxed with An Wuping, he completely Can't get out of a round?
why?
Qian Mian's mind was filled with doubts.

Such doubts really frighten some psykers who want to fish in troubled waters.

Feeling the sense of power in his body, Qianmian moved a little, and the broken carapace on his body quickly recovered as before with the blessing of spiritual energy.

Neither side used any protection, only a simple and crude punch directly into the enemy's face.

Seeing the seriously injured Qian Mian and thinking of the high bounty hanging on An Wuping's head, he finally couldn't help it anymore.

He could use An Wuping's power to easily kill other psychics, but this power seemed so feeble when facing An Wuping.

Qianmian let out a breath, and decided to give up An Wuping's seemingly good spiritual power, leaving only the super-speed recovery ability he needed, and nothing else.

This was the thought that appeared in the minds of Chen Ming and Qian Mian at the same time.

But the psychic in front of him has obviously become greedy.

Chen Ming definitely wasn't used to it either, so he punched his face with the same punch.

Although there are many psykers on this planet who fish in troubled waters, there are definitely psykers from the Fifth Legion, local governments, and even the Empire among them.

Which ultimately led to the current situation.

A psychic who was hiding somewhere suddenly made a voice loud enough for everyone present to hear: "That person is also An Wuping!"

"An Wuping too? What about the one below?"

"An Wuping is a fake!"

"That means..."

No one else knows what is going on in the minds of the psykers outside.

Anyway, Qianmian and Chen Ming, who were at the center of Yun Luoxing's psychic focus at this time, paid no attention to the looks from outside.

Those around him had proven that they were not capable enough to participate in this battle if they did not come together immediately.

The two of them are the strongest on the battlefield.

Qian Mian waited until his injuries were completely recovered, then transformed into black mist again and disappeared near the ground where he fell, and entered the energy supply tower.

And his action also confirmed for the people around him that the An Wuping who was knocked out was fake and was a disguised existence of the psyker from Zuo Jing.

The news that two An Wuping appeared at the same time, one true and one false, spread quickly through the psykers who were watching.

Then, inside the energy supply tower, fighting broke out again.

Qianmen Mian has returned from his insect form to his normal human form.

He relied on his changeable spiritual energy to constantly test Chen Ming, trying to find out the foundation of Chen Ming's combat ability.

Psychic energy fluctuations with various effects were continuously used on Chen Ming.

He also gradually found the most suitable method to deal with An Wuping.

As a psyker who can replicate the psionic effects of other psykers, Thousand Faces can naturally use multiple psionic effects at the same time.

The upper limit of the number of psychic powers that he can use without restriction without becoming a mind-rage entity is four.

And he gradually found the four most suitable psychic powers to deal with An Wuping.

The most commonly used black mist among Thousand Faces.

The clear ice was enough to withstand the power of Chen Ming's punch.

The previous virtual psychic energy that became a mind-rage entity.

As well as the high-speed psychic recovery effect obtained from An Wuping in human form.

Four spiritual energies converge in one person.

Even if Chen Ming's power is enough to destroy the cruiser, he can't immediately deal with Qianmian, who has the triple life-saving skills of black mist, blur, and high-speed recovery.

Moreover, Qianmian has also been relying on the complex environment and events inside the Earth Core Furnace Energy Supply Tower.

They would never fight head-on, relying on the sharpness of the ice to come out from the darkness from time to time for Chen Ming to attack.

Although it didn't matter if he directly pierced An Wuping's fatal parts or even cut off fatal organs such as the brain and heart.

But there was nothing he could do with Qianmian, and he couldn't catch anyone at all.

Even if Chen Ming could occasionally react and force his fist to reach Qianmian, Qianmian's injuries would be quickly recovered, and he would continue to look for opportunities to stab Chen Ming.

Like a fly, it's disgusting, but it can't be swatted away.

Chen Ming frowned and relied on the biomass vent to float in the center of a huge space under the energy supply tower of the earth's core furnace that he had destroyed.

The glow of plasma appeared on his fist again.

He actually doesn't want to release the plasma directly now, because if the energy supply tower on the surface collapses, it will be more troublesome for him to go deep underground later.

But the current movement of Qianmian really made him feel quite uncomfortable, so he could only try another ancient method while taking out the plasma.

Chen Ming suddenly said to the people around him: "I heard that at the earliest time, it seemed that your brainwashing psyker killed a person who was affected by his psionic power."

"What a coincidence. The person you killed happened to die in front of one of your sworn enemies. I remember his name was Chen Ming."

"Then your existence was exposed. You were engaging in dimensional infection, and your plan to hide yourself in the Caimo Starfield fell through. You were forced to become what you are now."

Qian Mian, who was hiding in a dark corner, turned pale and didn't reply.

"I'm very curious about one thing. Are you mocking Chen Ming? Are you afraid that he will forget you?"

Chen Ming's eyes swept around, but Qian Mian was still very calm, and was not affected by An Wuping's words. He continued to lurk in the shadows, ready to rely on virtualization and black mist spiritual energy at any time. Combined, give Chen Ming a hard blow.

At this moment, Chen Ming suddenly heard noisy and intensive movements coming from the outside of the energy supply tower, and the psykers outside seemed to be in conflict.

Chen Ming frowned slightly, because at present, it seems that the situation outside will only become more and more chaotic.

The time he solves Zuo Jia is the time the chaos ends.

It would be better for Qianmian to die here quickly.

Chen Ming stopped thinking about it and reached out to pat his chest.

Besides An Wuping's heart, there is another thing here.

The origin of chaos.

Thousand Faces’ Psychic Powers Are Weird and Diverse

Then Chen Ming can also use the effects brought about by the origin of chaos

To counter Thousand Faces.

Obsession, ruthlessness, electromagnetism, virtualization, and the psychic energy of the insect queen are all stored in this chaotic origin.

Obsession, ruthlessness, and the Insect Queen's psychic powers are of little use to Chen Ming, but electromagnetic power and virtualization are not among them. With Chaos Core activated.

Chen Ming relied on the effect of previous exercises to penetrate the electromagnetic force into his own biomagnetic field.

A force from the magnetic field constantly stimulates An Wuping's body, constantly expanding the power from the creature itself.

The ability to sense the magnetic field brought by this spiritual energy also allowed Chen Ming to directly lock onto Qianmian, who was in a virtual state in the black mist.

Just waiting for Qianmian to leave the virtual state.

No matter how Qianmian uses the black mist to shift, he can't escape Chen Ming's tracking.

The sixth sense of the Thousand-faced Psyner is stimulating him, allowing him to feel the fear from the origin of psychic energy, as well as the fear of the unknown situation where Chen Ming can use a brand-new ability.

He could see a bunch of puzzles in An Wuping.

Including what is An Wuping's identity, why psychic energy prevents people from being completely reincarnated, and the current electromagnetic power of unknown origin.

Electromagnetic force…

What An Wuping once said suddenly appeared in Qian Mian's mind.

It was in their underground laboratory on the left path that a mentally rampaging entity appeared.

If he remembered correctly, there should be an electromagnetic psyker in the composition of the mind-robbing entity.

Although he remembered that the electromagnetic psyker was not strong, and the psionic power was not expressed in this form, and the effect of the psionic power used by An Wuping was different.

But since they have the same nature, the source of electromagnetic psychic energy in An Wuping's body is probably that psychic.

Since that person has become a part of the mentally violent entity.

If you want to continue to gain this power...

The origin of chaos...

Qian Mian speculated on the most likely scenario today.

The perception of Chen Ming was immediately amplified.

In the turbulent, chaotic spiritual energy fluctuations, he noticed the slight fluctuations of the obsessed ectoplasm stone in the underground research institute.

His guess was correct.

An Wuping is a madman!
He stuffed the source of chaos into his body to control the source of chaos and use the spiritual energy within it for his own use.

Qian Mian felt a little nervous at this time.

Because even a psyker like him who has extensive experience in using multiple psychic powers at the same time would not dare to do this.

If An Wuping couldn't control it, he might be involved.

As soon as he had such an idea in his mind, he immediately forcibly erased it.

Thinking about everything during a life-and-death fight will only bring people closer to death.

And his mental energy was being consumed crazily.

Hollowing is not a completely unlimited spiritual power. The high mental power consumption of using it means that Qianmen cannot hide in Hollowing for the rest of his life.

When Qian Mian finally couldn't help but stop dissolving, several suspended ice spears appeared behind him.

The power of the terrifying magnetic field pulled Chen Ming and disappeared.

The moment he appears again.

Qian Mian truly felt the threat of death.

But at the moment before Chen Ming's fist hit.

A sudden change occurred in his body.

His body gradually became transparent and turned into a half-real and half-virtual nature.

It was this sudden change that allowed him to escape the violent punch from the plasma and Chen Ming's magnetic field.

This is not virtualization. Virtualization does not have such an external manifestation, but a nature that makes Chen Ming feel more familiar.

It's like... a ship spirit.

His body appeared to be similar to that of a ship spirit.

Under normal circumstances, only pure mental power can affect beings like Ship Spirits.

Therefore, in Qianmian's current state, only pure mental power should be able to harm him, and if Chen Ming guessed correctly, the current mental power should cause fatal damage to Qianmian.

But Chen Minggang wanted to change the method of attack, and his mental power had just gathered.

Qian Mian once again used virtual spiritual energy, and combined with the black mist and spiritual transformation, completely disappeared from his perception.

Even the biomagnetic field cannot locate his presence.

After entering the spiritual body, he seemed to have really disappeared.

But Chen Ming knew that Qianmian must still be somewhere, near him.

Chen Ming didn't have time to look for Qian Mian's traces.

He suddenly received a piece of news from his subordinate Yu Hui.

The star gate located in Caimo-1 has been completely activated just now.

The results were instantly calculated based on the space fluctuation data released when the star gate was activated, as well as Chen Ming's several external brains far outside the empire.

The other end of the star gate is connected to the Beniu Star Territory.

Chen Ming immediately focused part of his attention on Caimo-1's fleet.

At this time, inside the galaxy, in the center of the giant star gate equipment, in the illusory film. A huge fleet appeared.

The leading flagship among them has reached a length of 10,000 meters.

It's a battleship.

If Chen Ming remembered correctly, the model of the battleship that was passing through the star gate.

It is a fuel transport ship called the Prometheus class jointly developed by multiple governments.

However, the appearance of this Prometheus is slightly different from what Chen Ming knew. It seems to have undergone a lot of modifications.

A large number of fuel storage tanks were removed, and a large number of weapons of various types were installed in these vacated gaps.

The most conspicuous thing on this Prometheus-class ship is the huge cannon that is almost one-third the length of the ship.

If Chen Ming remembers correctly, the main weapon of Prometheus should be the Vulcan-class positron cannon, which is an energy weapon.

But this giant cannon is obviously not an energy weapon. It should be a new giant cannon that fires live ammunition that was added during modification.

Whatever that is.

Since this capital ship comes from the Beniu Star Domain, this capital ship and the fleet it leads cannot be heading towards the empire, but belong to the Zuo Path fleet.

Such a capital ship would not have any problems if it was only operating in the Benu star field, which should be completely controlled by Zuo Jian.

But since it passed through the star gate and arrived at the Caimo Starfield, the focus of the entire empire, the news that the battleship was being used was naturally spread by the spaceships that were hurriedly escaping around the galaxy.
Chen Ming soon got the news from his boss again, which he had learned about immediately.

The appearance of this capital ship gave everyone who was still in Caimo, Luci and other galaxies a choice to act against Zuo Path.

Either leave, or face the threat posed by the capital ships.

At this time, Chen Ming could see through the external monitoring of the psychically controlled Earth Core Furnace Power Tower that some psykers who were not too profoundly affected by the greedy psychic fluctuations had retreated.

They left the industrial area, boarded the shuttle boat, and prepared to run away.

But some people still chose to continue coming towards him. I don't know whether they didn't get the news or because their greed defeated their reason.

These people couldn't put pressure on Chen Ming, but the imminent arrival of the battleship did make him feel a sense of urgency.

As long as the capital ship comes out of the star gate, it can jump immediately.

And the first target of its transition is definitely here, the Luci Galaxy, above the orbit of Yunluoxing.

And the capital ship, even if it is just a capital ship that is supposed to be a logistics one, at least for now it seems that it has the ability to destroy stars.

Although it may not be able to directly blow up the planet, it is absolutely no problem to wash the entire surface of the planet.

If this Prometheus arrives, the recipient underground may not be in any danger.

But something will definitely happen to An Wuping who is still on the surface.

There can be no delay.

Chen Ming knew that he had to speed up and solve Qianmian.

But there was another question on his mind.

Now that Zuo Jing has brought out its battleships, what about the Fifth Army? What about the empire? What about the capital ships belonging to their side?

He could only ask this question in his mind. After the president was busy with something unknown, he couldn't find anyone to ask this question.

But it's not without good news.

At least for now, it seems that Qian Mian, who is blocking his actions, cannot defeat him.

Since Qian Mian can't hide now, there is no need for Chen Ming to dwell on Qian Mian.

His goal is not Thousand Faces. But the recipient underground.

He is the attacker.

It's just that Chen Ming was worried that he might be attacked by two psykers at the same time if he withstood Qianmen's attack and went underground.

But since Thousand Faces uses this kind of psychic ability, apart from his strong survivability and slightly variable psychic ability, there is no ability that can kill him in terms of combat effectiveness.

Then Chen Ming had nothing to worry about and went directly to find the recipient.

Qian Mian was forced to fight him head-on without giving him a chance to delay.

Chen Ming adjusted his posture in the office.

Both fists were filled with a glow of plasma and went straight into the ground of the energy supply tower that had collapsed a lot.

The ground collapsed, the building collapsed, and Chen Ming instantly went underground and penetrated dozens of floors.

The spiritual energy fluctuations coming from the recipient have become more and more obvious.

And the spiritual energy fluctuations of Qianmeng that had just disappeared once again appeared in his perception.

Qian Mian was indeed anxious.
