Rebirth of the Stars

　　 "This won't work. My mind is too confused and I can't determine the direction and footsteps."

　　 Ning Yuan tried to move himself a few steps in consciousness, and stopped when he almost staggered down.

　　 "The wall of the passage seems to have really disappeared. Although I can't feel the touch, the sense of distance still exists in my consciousness."

　　 sat down in consciousness again. Ning Yuan stared at the character panel. When he staggered and tilted just now, the character panel also tilted. This allowed Ning Yuan to basically confirm some of his guesses.

　　 "What is the current situation so that I can ignore or reduce the fear and interference caused by the purely dark environment and the chaotic five senses." Ning Yuan muttered and scanned the character panel, and paused in a certain position.

"Meditation: Cannot be upgraded. Empty your mind to purify your mind. Effect 1: Each time you run'Meditation' for one hour, the player will get 10% of the wisdom (spiritual/savvy/strategy/political strategy/military strategy) attribute bonus Six hours; Effect 2: Each time you run'Meditation' for six hours, the player will permanently increase the negative mental resistance by one thousandth, with a total increase of 30%. Requirements: You need to sit still in a non-combat state. "

　　 Looking at the attribute of "Meditation" in the skill bar, Ning Yuan had a bright feeling: "This is it."

　　 Just do it.

　　 Ning Yuan sat cross-legged in consciousness, and for the first time officially used the "meditation" skill in consciousness.

　　 With the operation of the skills, Ning Yuan felt that some chaotic thoughts slowly disappeared, and the whole person slowly relaxed and entered a kind of ethereal spirit.

　　 If Ning Yuan didn't close his eyes, if he could see, he would find that when he was running the "Meditation" skill, his body sitting cross-legged in the dark gradually emitted a white shimmer to illuminate his silhouette. But in an instant the faint white light was absorbed by the darkness around the body, and the whole person fell into absolute darkness again.

　　 When Ning Yuan woke up from the ethereal state, he checked the character panel and found that a 10% bonus sign was added to the back of the attribute wisdom.

　　 "Is a complete meditation run for one hour and two hours?" Ning Yuan muttered, then raised his eyes to look around.

　　 Although I still can't see, hear, smell, and touch, the imaginary fears and fears don't immediately come to my heart.

　　 stood up and tried to walk forward. Although he would still be disturbed by the confusion of his five senses, Ning Yuan found that he was much calmer than he thought.

　　 After walking forward for a while, the chaotic emotions slowly attached to my heart, and the original sense of balance was also lost instantly.

　　 Ning Yuan had to stop again in consciousness.

　　 "It works, but the time is too short." Ning Yuan looked at the remaining time of the bonus on the character panel, "It only took about 5 minutes."

　　 then reacted.

"Um, this seems to be a way to determine time." Ning Yuan was taken aback, and then reacted instantly, "The concept of time in this space is very vague. Although Bigu Dan has an effective period of seven days, it will not be displayed in the status bar. Originally I thought that the approximate time could only be determined when the hunger sensation hits again, but now we can use the time of'meditation' to run once and the countdown of the wisdom attribute to more accurately grasp the time."

　　 Then another question came to mind: "I don't know if the blessing effect of'Meditation' can be superimposed? And it is better to determine the specific time when'Meditation' runs once."

　　 While thinking this way, Ning Yuan confirmed the countdown for the blessing of the wisdom attribute in the attribute panel. Then run the "Meditation" skill again.

　　 After waking up from "Meditation" for the second time, Ning Yuan looked at the data on the character panel and exclaimed: "This skill is simply a magical skill."

　　 I only saw "Wisdom: (110%!) (MISSING) (minutes remaining on the character attribute.

　　 "A'meditation' is indeed one hour and two hours, and the time of attribute blessing can be superimposed." Although Ning Yuan was very surprised, his tone was calm and flat. But he didn't know it, because he couldn't hear his own voice.

"In this case, the wisdom attribute after blessing can basically be regarded as the attribute in the normal state. And..." Ning Yuan stood up and walked forward steadily again. "After the meditation is over, my consciousness seems to be in a short period of time. A state of absolute rationality and calmness."

　　 After 5 minutes, Ning Yuan's sense of balance disappeared again.

"The time is indeed 5 minutes." Ning Yuan felt all kinds of distracting thoughts and emotions boiling again. "Within 5 minutes, I can maintain a calm state similar to absolute rationality. In this state, the confusion of the five senses and the pure dark environment treat me. The impact will be lessened, at least allowing me to be absolutely calm to maintain a sense of balance and move forward."

　　 "But every time this state of absolute calm disappears, I always feel that the negative emotions and thoughts brought about by the pure darkness and the confusion of the five senses will be accelerated and amplified."

　　 Feeling the increasingly chaotic brain and various emotions boiling in his mind, Ning Yuan sighed deeply in consciousness: "Double-edged sword"

　　 Maintaining the clearness of the Lingtai, Ning Yuan sat down cross-legged again, running "meditation".

　　 Even if he knew that this might be a way to quench thirst by drinking poison, Ning Yuan had no choice but to do it.

　　 Because in the short time since he woke up to discover his own situation, he had almost fallen into an uncontrollable emotional situation more than once. Although the successful use of "Yesterday Twilight" will make the memory coherent, I have to say that the use of "Yesterday Twilight" is very reluctant. Several times when I was half focused, I was not consciously interrupted by chaotic thoughts, and I had to try again and again.

　　 If it is an emotion that can be controlled by the individual, Ning Yuan believes that even if the emotions fluctuate greatly with his own ability, he can confidently suppress and maintain his calmness.

　　 However, when he woke up in this purely dark space, he found that he had no control over his emotions at all. It's not that I don't want to control, but I can't control it.

Although he barely remained calm in his consciousness except for the initial panic, he knew that if he could see his body from the third perspective now, he would definitely see his body and limbs trembling unconsciously. , His face must also be green and white. He could no longer control the influence of the chaotic thoughts and increasingly extreme emotions in his mind on his body.

　　 Although he is now in a state of five sense disorders, he can still feel it. Moreover, the mental state column on the character panel has been flashing between calm and chaos, and the number of flashes of chaos is significantly higher than that of calm.

　　 Except during and after running "Meditation" in just five minutes.

　　 He didn't know whether this was his natural reaction when he was in a purely dark environment and faced with the confusion of the five senses, or whether it was a test effect imposed on him by the system.

　　 But he knows that he must not let these messy and extreme thoughts and emotions enter his mind, or he will definitely lose control.

　　 He doesn't know if once he loses control, it means a failure in the test, but he can't and doesn't want to take a risk.

　　 When Ning Yuan woke up from "meditation" again, and wanted to move forward again while she was still in absolute calm, an unexpected system prompt sounded in her mind:

　　 "Congratulations to the player for the increase in negative mental resistance."

"Huh? Isn't it six hours or six times to trigger the second effect of'meditation'?" Ning Yuan stopped the steps he had just taken in his consciousness, and then reacted and guessed: "Is it because of my current state? ?"

　　 After thinking for a moment, Ning Yuan ignored it for a while after being a little uncertain. The most important thing now is to take advantage of the hidden effect of "Meditation" and seize the time to move forward.

　　 In any case, there is always an end to this test. As long as Ning Yuan does not lose control to reach the end, then it is always the safest way to pass the test.

　　 This time Ning Yuan did not wait until the calm state disappeared and the sense of balance disappeared before running "Meditation". Instead, before the calm state disappeared, he sat down to run the "Meditation" skill again.

　　 In this way, the first 4 minutes and 30 seconds after the end of each "meditation" became Ning Yuan's fixed forward time. After 4 minutes and 30 seconds, Ning Yuan sat down cross-legged to run the skills again.

　　 By the time Ning Yuan was attacked by hunger pangs again, Ning Yuan had already performed meditation 60 times, and every three times Ning Yuan could hear the system increasing negative mental resistance. This became the only voice Ning Yuan could hear in this pure darkness.

　　 20 system prompts means a permanent increase of 2% of negative mental resistance.

　　 But the increased negative resistance is of no use to Ning Yuan. At least two percent of negative resistance is a drop in the bucket for Ning Yuan now. He can feel that the negative emotions he has accumulated are approaching a certain upper limit.

　　 But he has no way. He has not dared to put down the use of the "meditation" skill at all, and the walking time has been compressed to 4 minutes by him in seven days.

　　 As time goes by and the "Meditation" skills continue to be used, the closer to the end of the calm state, the more serious the frantic feeling.

　　 In seven days, Ning Yuan could feel that his spirit was in a state of being completely overdrawn. If it is not for the character panel that is always on, if not every "meditation" is equivalent to a deep sleep, if not every time you hear the system prompts.

　　 In such a purely dark environment, without hearing, seeing, or touching, Ning Yuan would never last a day. No, maybe it doesn't take a day, as long as half a day or even shorter, he will get lost in the chaotic mood. This is when Ning Yuan's will is still firm.

　　 But Ning Yuan could feel that he had reached the limit. The mental drowsiness has already made him a bit hard to see even the character panel, his eyes seem to be closed in the next second, and he faints.

　　 Ning Yuan is very grateful for the arrival of this hunger pang, which gives him the real sense that he is still "alive". For seven days of repeated mechanical actions, except for the character panel, you can’t even see your own body, except for the system prompts, you can’t hear even your own shouting words and breathing, except for the hands and feet that you can feel. I can't feel any collision or the actual feeling of stepping on the ground, my hands are clenched but there is no sense of clenching.

　　 All this made Ning Yuan feel like he wanted to go crazy. And over time, this frantic mood, along with other chaotic thoughts and negative emotions, constantly impacted my mind. If it weren't for the ability to separate distracted thoughts and emotions when "meditation" was running, and if it wasn't for a calm state that was not affected by emotions and distracted thoughts for a short time after the "meditation", Ning Yuan would be unable to do so.

　　 But, it's the limit.

　　 Ning Yuan barely lifted his spirits amid the extreme hunger, took a peg of bigudan from the Kun bag and put it in his mouth.

　　 The moment when Bigu Dan turned into a warm current in his mouth and entered his body, Ning Yuan subconsciously used the "Meditation" skill, but in a flash, he fell down in an irresistible drowsiness and fell into a deep lethargic state.

　　 In the pure darkness, Ning Yuan's body lit up with a soft white light following the successful operation of the "Meditation" skill, and was instantly swallowed by the surrounding darkness.

　　 It may be that Ning Yuan fell into a drowsiness. After running for a week, the "Meditation" skill did not stop as usual, but directly started the next week with Ning Yuan's breathing.

　　 Then there is the third day of the week, and the fourth day of the week. . . .

　　 So, in this pure darkness that is deeper than ink, in this pure darkness that is like a living thing, every once in a while, a drowsy humanoid silhouette will light up, and then it will be swallowed by the darkness in an instant. again and again.

When Ning Yuan was asleep, somewhere in the imaginary world outside the "Rebirth" imaginary realm, in the all-stars coalition government base, the staff of all the stars wearing special white uniforms were in a hall full of science fiction. Busy at work. Pieces of virtual screens rise and fall, and groups of data representing the players are cascading down on the virtual screens like a waterfall.

　　 This is the observation and adjustment base of "Rebirth" in the virtual world.

　　 A gray-haired old man of the Yi people sits leisurely in the office on the second floor of the hall, drinking Ai tea (similar to tea, with a refreshing and relaxing effect) while watching the busy figures in the hall downstairs.

　　 There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

　　 "Crunch" The door opened, and a female barbarian with wide-brimmed glasses twisted the slender waist hidden under the white uniform and walked in.

The female barbarians have long wavy, fiery red hair and a **** and charming face under wide-rim glasses. If they are not hidden under the old-fashioned wide-rim glasses and keep their cold look, they will look extraordinarily glamorous. people.

　　 She is Ava Cole, 26 years old. The goddess in the hearts of 50% of the male animals in the entire base. He is also the director of the special ethnic sample observation room of the "Rebirth" project in this base.

　　 The old man put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at Ava, waved his hand to let the person who wanted to bow to sit down, and asked, "What's the matter, Ava?"

　　 There is a special magnetism in the old man's voice, which is gentle and thick, with a touch of majesty.

　　 "Sample 49 has special circumstances." Ava got up and handed a virtual screen report to the elderly.

　　 "No. 49? Ning Bing Clan?" The old man took the report, thought about it, and said with some uncertainty, "It seems that no one should have access to the hidden samples right now?"

　　 said while looking at the report.

"Yes. Theoretically speaking, these five hidden samples will not be exposed to a little information until at least 300 years after Nieno Continental Time, when the player reaches a certain level of strength." Ava pushed the glasses, with a cool expression. The voice said, "But the actual situation now is that some players have already obtained a piece of the'Ice Condensation Source' spiritual object part and obtained some information about the Ice Clan.".

"Oh?!"

　　 The old man looked up from the report in surprise, his brown eyes looked at Ava's delicate face: "It's Huangsheng, right? Has the ownership of the spiritual things been bound?"
