Twelfth level psionics? This statement made Pan Long vaguely feel a little familiar.

He thought about it for a few moments, and then he remembered that it was something from some old game.

That series of games was a big hit in his youth, so popular that anyone who played the game would know about it. But as the saying goes, "kingship is not eternal", as the game company was controlled by a group of Indians who were good at PPT and fooling, it went down day by day, and finally even completely collapsed, and even the entertainment wave of the era of the Great Federation failed to save it.

In that game, there is a power called "psionics". Humans divide the creatures that possess this power into ten levels, with ten being the highest level that humans can study and master. On this basis, those that can be measured but cannot be studied and mastered are rated as eleventh, and those whose intensity is too strong to be measured are set as twelve.

In other words, the twelfth-level psionic is not "he is one level stronger than the eleventh", but "he is immeasurably stronger" - there is only one twelve-level psionic who is clearly admitted in the whole story, that is, a certain female agent who repeatedly jumps between decency, villain, and neutral, and finally even becomes a god's female agent.

How did the world come out of psionic levels, and by what criteria did they grade psionics?

Pan Long was very curious, so he asked the waiter of the hotel where he was staying.

The waiter didn't think it was strange at all, and said, "This is a standard that was only recently introduced in the Tower of Babel, and I remember explaining it in detail in one of the newspapers......

She quickly helped Pan Long find the newspaper.

The newspaper devoted almost half of the page to the classification of psionic abilities:

Level 0: Unawakened. Whether it is the awakening caused by innate aptitude, or the awakening caused by acquired spiritual energy infection, in short, people who do not have awakened spiritual energy are at this level.

Levels 1-2: Sensors. People who have just awakened psionic energy and can only sense the existence of psionic energy. Fuzzy perception is level 1, and clear perception is level 2.

Levels 3-4: Observer. A person who can observe psionic energy. It is level 3 to be able to see strong traces of psionic energy, and level 4 to be able to see general traces of psionic energy.

Level 5: User. A person who is able to export their own psionic energy and activate various psionic tools.

Levels 6-7: Manipulator. A person who can effectively control his own psionic energy. Level 6 requires tools, and level 7 does not require tools.

Levels 8-12: Amplifier. People who can use psionic energy to amplify various tools are divided into five levels according to the intensity of the amplification.

The so-called twelfth-level psionic is the strongest amplifier. According to the newspapers, the amplification intensity is so high that "the existing psionic tools cannot fully exert their amplification ability", which is the highest level 12 psionic energy.

According to the newspaper, so far, there are only two people in the human realm who have discovered people with twelve-level spiritual powers, except for some deep-sea monsters, terrifying creatures, or guys who may be the incarnation of gods.

The first was the late "Dragon Maiden", the former leader of the "United Crowd". She blew up the Slavic Imperial Palace with her own strength, killing Emperor Nikolalovich II and several high-ranking officials, including at least two Rank 10 psionics.

This was the largest amount of damage known in human history to be caused by a single person's psionic energy, and considering that she could not have carried a large stave or other psionic amplification tool at the time, it could be assumed that she had relied purely on her own psionic energy to complete the explosion.

Although her splendor was only for a moment, with this moment of splendor alone, she had already been recognized by more than one god, praising her for having "the power of a god".

Another level 12 psionic was in the Battle of Zion, single-handedly defeated the "mentor" Xia Ping'an (Pan Long's pseudonym in "Zion") of the 100,000-strong army of the Slavic Empire.

This Mentor Xia is not only a great doctor and scholar, but also the first and only person to be recorded in a video way after mankind has the means of video recording.

Although there have been many similar legends in history, legends are just legends after all. Many Eleventh level psionics—who are generally considered to be the "strongest" level of humans in this world—have said that no matter how strong an individual is, the most he can do is to deal with a small army. In the face of a large-scale well-trained and well-equipped army, even the strongest men could hardly resist it, and they had to delay as many burials as possible before they died.

However, Xia Ping'an changed this, he really relied on his own strength to defeat an army of 100,000. At that time, both sides of the war believed afterwards that even if the Zion side did not enter the war, even if there were no accidents on the side of the Slavic Empire. With the crazy Xia Ping'an, he was completely able to defeat and scatter the 100,000 army, so that their morale collapsed and the wolf rushed to the ground.

Unfortunately, the dragon girl is dead, the mentor has gone into hiding, and the concept of a level 12 psionic has just been proposed, and it has already become a legend.

Although there were often people among the former members of the "United Public" who claimed that "the dragon maiden is still alive", and although from time to time there were people who claimed to have seen practitioners who resembled "teachers" somewhere, they had eventually disappeared from the eyes of the world.

At the end of that article, he said:

[So, will there be a third Rank 12 Psionic in this world?]

[This question may only be left to history to answer. 】

"No wonder the concept of 'Twelfth Level Psionic Person' is used as a gimmick in advertising, I see!" Pan Long put down the newspaper and smiled with satisfaction.

Although things are not quite the same as he expected, the current situation should obviously be on the good side.

But the bad side still exists, Pan Long flipped through the newspapers provided in the hotel for the last two months, saw an endless stream of psionic explosions, and also saw more than one comment about "the increase in psionic outbursts in recent years".

It is said that after the alchemy method is established, the spiritual energy of the psionic infected people is actually constantly weakened - the essence of the alchemy method is to transform the spiritual energy into their own strength, that is, to enhance their physique. In this process, instead of absorbing the patient's life and enhancing it as it did in the past, the psionic energy will continue to be consumed until it reaches a very low level, and it will stop for a while.

If you go in this direction, in the future, this world may not be full of psychic masters, but martial arts masters will definitely be all over the ground, I am afraid that after a hundred and eighty years, even the children on the street will fight with a fist and a strong wind, and an earthquake with one kick......

Presumably, the world's infrastructure industry will definitely flourish when the time comes.

In this case, there may be outbursts of psionic energy, but they should be reduced overall.

But now it's the other way around, and the burst of psionic energy has not only not decreased, but has increased...... There must be something shady behind this, some appalling conspiracy!

Pan Long had seen someone deliberately cause psionic bursts - psionic bursts would attract vast psionic energy from the universe, creating large-scale psionic infection areas and new psionic ore veins.

In the past, it was dangerous, and one carelessness could spiral out of control, leading to irreparable consequences.

But since the popularization of the alchemy method, unless it is unlucky enough to be swept into the core area of the psionic energy outbreak, even if the infection reaches a terrifying 20% or more, it can be slowly lowered by relying on the alchemy method - there is a news in those newspapers that the "last Wendigo" (an extremely rare human race, with an incredibly high tolerance for psionic infection) has ended a five-year treatment and has recently been discharged from the hospital.

The old man's infection level was so high that ordinary instruments couldn't measure the degree of his infection, and even spiritual energy crystals grew on his body.

Even such a person can regain his health with the help of refining methods and medical methods, so what is so terrible about being able to be infected with this incurable disease of the past?

Since psionic energy infection is no longer terrible, the psionic energy outbreak is naturally not so terrifying, and there is no need to fear the enemy like a tiger and shy away from it as in the past.

And then the problem becomes.

There is a way to artificially create ore veins simply and quickly to produce high-quality energy. And the cost is not large, and the location is arbitrary.

Excuse me, what will happen?

There is no doubt that the vast majority of the increasing psionic bursts in recent years have been man-made!

Psionic crystals are high-quality energy sources, and their importance is comparable to that of the oil that Pan Long used to be in the world in his previous life. Whatever madness happens, there's nothing surprising about that.

The world is so cruel, and the pursuit of more wealth by those who hold power and wealth is so disgusting!

Pan Long has killed many such people, but as the great men of another world said, as long as the profit is sufficient, the capitalists can even sell the rope that hangs themselves.

Conscience, life, they don't care!

Now it seems that this trend is gradually intensifying, and I don't know what will happen in the end?

Pan Long rubbed his eyebrows and felt a little headache.

"Well, I'm an engineering student, not history or politics. You asked me to engage in industry and technology and promote the development of productive forces, this is my profession. You asked me to dissect the social situation and come up with solutions...... I didn't study this! I relied on memorizing syllabuses to get through college politics!"

After sighing, he thought about it for a while and decided to meet the former "Zion" people.

Perhaps they would have been able to come up with some good advice and suggestions – although he did not have much hope for that.

And going to them is also convenient for him to gather some intelligence.

His cultivation has reached this point, and he already has certain requirements for the heavens and the earth. The earth shatter that he discovered at the beginning, although the concentration was good, the intensity was too low. God knows how long it will take to quench the body with that kind of earth-shattering body.

But where are the higher concentrations of earth evil?

If you rely on yourself to find it, you will be purely lucky. Four or five months is a long time, but it's not that long. It's a shame to waste it on searching!

Two days later, Pan Long arrived at the "Tower of Babel".

This small mobile city is docked right on the waterfront.

The oceans of this world are dangerous, and there are many terrifying monsters hidden in them. The vast majority of races are afraid of the ocean and will not approach it. Only the minority group, represented by the Argots, will live by the sea.

They have some special resources that deserve a trip to the Tower of Babel to do business with them.

Pan Long's visit made the high-level officials of the Tower of Babel overjoyed. Several of the main leaders dropped their work to meet him, and everyone got along very well.

When Pan Long proposed that he needed to find information about the area of this world where "there was a strong evil spirit underground", the person in charge of the Tower of Babel, the former "doctor" and the current "doctor", immediately patted his chest and agreed.

"Give me three days, and after three days, I'll give you the most detailed information in the world!" he said confidently.

After solving this problem, Pan Long talked about another problem—about someone artificially creating a burst of psionic energy.

He had expected the topic to distress everyone at the Tower of Babel, but they seemed relaxed and didn't see any pressure.

"We've identified this issue before. "At first, we were as worried as you are, but after a long and careful investigation, we were surprised to find that this was actually the case...... Not a bad thing. ”

"What?!" Pan Long was shocked, "Not a bad thing?"

"That's right. In the past, psionic outbursts were terrifying because psionic infections were terrifying in themselves. In addition, as long as the first wave of disasters is avoided, the risk of direct death is not great. Now, the use of artificial means to cause psionic energy explosions is smaller in scale and less severe in the intensity of the disaster. Although the scale of the ore vein produced cannot be compared with the natural one, who cares about the size of the ore vein?"

The doctor turned to the filing cabinet, rummaged through it a little, took out a document, and handed it to Pan Long.

"This is the result of our study, as well as the reports of several small trials that we have conducted with several large organizations. You can take a look. I believe that after reading them, the worries in your heart can be lifted. ”

Pan Long opened the information suspiciously and read it carefully.

According to the data, the biggest risk of artificially inducing psionic energy explosions is actually "scale control". So far, all the ones that have caused large-scale damage have been indiscriminately operated by those who have no knowledge and no skills, resulting in the scale of the psionic energy explosion being too large to be controlled.

Research and experiments conducted by the Tower of Babel and other large organizations have shown that this kind of "mining" does not cause casualties as long as the scale is controlled.

Even...... The safety range from "profitable" to "dangerous" is quite high!

"So now a lot of countries are preparing to artificially create some veins. After all, the value of psionic crystals is very high, and if it can greatly increase its production, it can reduce the energy expenditure of the whole society - I believe it will be of great help to improve people's livelihood!"

Looking at the confident appearance of the doctor and the others, Pan Long nodded, but his heart was not as sure as theirs.

The result of a psionic explosion is more than just creating a psionic infected area and a varying number of psionic veins!

Even if the scale of the spiritual energy explosion is carefully controlled and does not cause a large-scale disaster, it is not a good thing for the world as a whole.

But...... As the doctor said, psionic crystals are so important to the people of this world as an energy source!

Even if it was risky, they couldn't stop the operation of creating psionic veins.

Pan Long sighed secretly in his heart, remembering the lyrics of an old song.

[A new storm has appeared]

I just don't know, do I still have the strength and luck to turn the tide this time?
