Chapter 225: The Truth That Followed
Wang Jingyang, the spiritual master of the Six Rings, who is already a "sage" in the eyes of the world, just poured half a cup of draft beer into his stomach, and then let out a sigh of satisfaction.
He picked up a small slice of sausage from the tray on the table, dipped it in some fragrant chili noodles, and was about to savor it when he realized that there was already one more person next to the booth.
"Come on, sit down, sit down. Xiao Yulian, let me tell you, the dark beer in this store is really good! Special Bavaria! The sausages here are really good, especially Munich! ”
Yu Lian felt that Uncle Wang must have never drunk authentic Bavarian dark beer, and the sausage dipped in chili noodles in Munich must have made a mistake, but he was not prepared to expose the other party.
Now, Wang Jingyang is no longer wearing the uniform of the general of the internal security army, which is really not too suitable for him. He was dressed in a very ordinary outfit, not much different from all the senior social animals who were in the mid-life crisis stage.
However, considering the few large beer glasses still on his table, and the heartless smirk on his face, he looked more like a veteran vagrant who was idle.
Yu Lian felt that such a state might be more suitable for him.
It's just before noon, and of course there are not many people in the hotel. However, Yu Lian still glanced around and confirmed the current situation.
"The owner of this shop is a friend of mine." Wang Jingyang said with a smile: "Let's talk with confidence, no one will eavesdrop." Anyway, I'm also a sage of the six rings, can't I find out if someone eavesdrops? ”
Yu Lian's eyes narrowed, he really didn't understand who gave him such courage.
Wang Jingyang also reacted, blushing and said: "Controlling your mind can't be considered hostile, controlling ...... Control, the manipulator behind the scenes, and the transfer through the slugs, how could I have thought of it? And robots, and robots are not living beings, so how can there be hostility? ”
Yes, Wang Jingyang's hostile perception domain spread to the entire ship, and no living being's hostile intentions could hide from his perception. Even a master like Brigadier General Morey could only suppress his true intentions and emotions in the depths of the sea of consciousness, and he didn't even dare to move even the slightest hostile thought, let alone do it.
So, in order to break through Wang Jingyang's hostile perception, Morey's approach was also quite extreme. He allowed others to control themselves, and when he acted, he completely let go of the control of his body, and let the will of the mind controller dominate the body.
In this way, his body is no longer governed by his own will, but is just a tool, and of course there is no perceptible hostility.
I have to say that Brigadier General Morey, who is already dead and bones, is really ruthless. Once you let go of your soul like this and let the will of others enter your body, it is really possible to completely reduce yourself to a puppet.
For the sake of Admiral Schwartz, he was able to do this, and he didn't know whether to sigh or be shocked.
"Evil love!" Wang Jingyang sighed.
"yes, so the love brain is not very credible."
Wang Jingyang always felt that Yu Lian was mocking himself, but there was really no evidence.
At this time, Yu Lian said again: "Actually, even if you don't use this extreme method, there are several ways to avoid the judgment of hostile perception. For example, it is said that the Void Spirit Temple has this kind of spirit control method, and while the sky is dark and fatal, it is still smiling sweetly. ”
Of course, this method of controlling spirits, known as the "Void Will", is one of the top secret techniques of the Void Spirit Temple, and it is not taught to the public.
"If I really meet a master who can void will, I will consider myself unlucky."
"There are simpler ways. For example, find another person who is accused of the heart and come over with a bomb...... Yes, the hostile perception realm can certainly detect the will of evil thoughts, and mind control is also one of them. There are many ways to circumvent this kind of surveillance. For example, the enemy used the parasite protozoa as a transit for mind control...... Aren't you fooled? ”
"Hmm...... I thought it was because Morey was too tired lately to take care of himself, and he had lice in his hair and beard. ”
"Yes, the life fluctuations of parasitic protozoa are similar to those of mites, and they are indeed easy to ignore." Yu Lian shrugged his shoulders and said, "However, people can not control their minds and only brainwash!" Anyway, if you take back your own spiritual derivation after brainwashing, there will be no hostility. ”
Wang Jingyang was sweating profusely when he heard this, and he really wanted to ask why the other party was so skilled, but when it came to his mouth, he became: "Little, little Yulian, why don't you remind me?" ”
"How do I know you're going to be in charge this way? Who gave you the courage to think that the realm of hostile perception is foolproof? ”
"That's what Morey said!"
Oh, isn't this just a return to square one?
Of course, Yu Lian is not too easy to blame Uncle Wang. In terms of security, in order to be (relatively) foolproof in the occult, in addition to the realm of hostile perception, it is necessary to open at least the realm of spiritual purification, microscopic energy visits, and so on. But in this way, there are not one or two high-ranking psionics who need to be dispatched.
In comparison, it is better to put more effort into the scientific way.
At least the experience of Yu Lian's previous life has proved this.
He was indeed at the scene where several psionics were in charge, and took the head of the Imperial Prime Minister; However, when he was preparing to assassinate a certain Navy Minister of the Alliance, he was forced to adopt the hooded Assasin flow stealth method under the defensive measures of the other party's three-step, one-person, ten-step, and one-post densely covered with various advanced monitoring facilities.
"My teacher said that I really relied too much on supernatural abilities, but I always lacked imagination...... Sure enough, the cultivation is still insufficient! Wang Jingyang shook his head.
It's true that you have a problem with a lack of imagination, but it's not too much of a problem. If you follow the martial arts worldview, you are the kind of white path master who cultivates the authentic Xuanmen, and you have no weaknesses, but it is also difficult to cross the level and kill monsters. Now you are still prone to some evil tricks, but once you really reach the day of the great success, it will really be easy to find out the ghosts.
At least in later generations, whether it is actual combat records or teaching achievements, it is enough to determine your historical position.
"The teacher said that I chose to enter the officialdom at this time, but it was actually too hasty. It's very likely to suffer a big loss! He smirked and disturbed his head: "Oh, he was actually told by his old man again." ”
Yu Lian pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "So, have you already decided that you are going to resign?" ”
"I'm the commander of the Azure Guards, and I'm the head of security for this celebration! When something like this happens, my deputy has become a terrorist and a traitor, even if the central government wants to keep it, what face does it have to stay? I have already submitted my resignation and discharge from service, and Marshal Erwin has agreed. Wang Jingyang said.
Seeing that Yu Lian's expression was not too good-looking, he smiled again: "Actually, it's okay to resign, I'm just a psychic, and I've spent most of my life practicing the occult." I don't know how to understand the world, and I don't have any knowledge of command and management. So, Xiao Yulian, my uncle decided to go to a university and get a good understanding of the real world! The teacher also agreed with me and said, "This is the real practice of entering the WTO." ”
“……”
"Well, don't look at me like this, I'm actually a high school graduate. Wowha! ”
What's so proud about this?
"However, I don't really understand what I want to learn."
"Two directions. Law, as well as mathematics. The former is in line with your pathway, and it can also give you an understanding of society. The latter, on the other hand, will make you really understand your imagination. Yu Lian said casually.
Uncle Wang was slightly stunned, thought for a moment, and then nodded thoughtfully: "I'll think about it." ”
You've really thought about it! Yu Lian suddenly felt a little guilty, and hurriedly changed the topic: "What should the Community Guards do after that?" ”
"Don't worry, since our psionic force has been established, it will definitely be carried out according to the old plan. The new commander will be in office next week. ”
"Who?"
"It seems to be Major General Azisha Marrowin, it seems to be quite famous in the scientific community......"
"Isn't that an archaeologist?"
"Yes! Do you know her? ”
The changes in the historical line are too naughty. Yu Lian really couldn't be sure whether this appointment was right or wrong, but he felt weird, so strange that he didn't even know what expression he should have.
In any case, at least it should not be a particularly bad appointment.
"Alright, let's get down to business." Wang Jingyang took out a transparent special test tube. There's a protozoa soaked in it.
"I've had Brother Grant check it out, and it's indeed a parasite protozoa, but it's not anything we know of so far. Brother Grant was also surprised! ”
Uncle Wang's "Brother Grant" is full name Sonny Grant, and he is also the psionic master of the Six Rings, and he is also a very capable alchemy master and occult research expert.
Yu Lian really misses this old man who is a mysterious technology nerd. The magic change of the atomic light spear in his previous life was completed with the help of that grumpy but warm-hearted old man. Of course, he should still be just a grumpy middle-aged angry young man.
All in all, a trustworthy senior.
"I checked it through spiritual communication and did find some problems...... Yu Lian, this thing actually has a memory. It's no ordinary space slug. ”
Yu Lian was not surprised at all, but he still showed a surprised expression at the right time.
The space slug, whose scientific name is "parasitic protozoa", does look a bit like a smaller slug, which is why it is called. More than three hundred years ago, this was once a creature that caused considerable controversy, and for quite a long time even led the trend of some kind of evolutionary concept.
Coalition archaeologists have excavated a fairly well-preserved biological laboratory from an ancient Enlightened ruins, and have extracted cells from the remains of the culture facility to restore them. The creature they got was the space slug.
It's a small creature that's a slug-like, and its body is actually very fragile, and any bear child can play with it. They are also very short-lived, surviving for less than 24 hours, even in a sterile incubator. However, no one really thinks of them as mere mollusks.
Since it was a thing made from the ruins of the Enlightener, even if it was a paramecium, it must be a paramecium full of demonic energy.
Later, after a long period of research, the scientists of the alliance determined that this slug can survive for a long time as long as it attaches to the brainstem or spine of large mammals and shares its nutrients.
In mammals that receive space slug parasitism, the speed of neural response, the efficiency of metabolism, and cell activity will be enhanced. These cells are viable, and even brain cells.
As for the side effects, it is said to reduce the hormone production of animals. But these days, even games are more fun than women, so let's have less of this low-level fun.
In addition, some of the slug sturdy individuals can even be used as a medium for the storage and transit of psionic energy. For psykers, it's like an extra blue bar and spell slot that resides in their body.
There is no harm in all the benefits!
That being said, this is, after all, a parasitic other animal at the vital point of the body of intelligent beings. Ethical issues aside, who can guarantee that this thing is really harmless?
For this reason, the Alliance, and indeed the entire galaxy, have had a considerable discussion.
Those who agree believe that this is the source of the evolution of intelligent beings, and as long as they achieve symbiosis with these little slugs, they will be one step away from catching up with the back of the predecessors of the enlightened ones and unlocking the truth of the universe.
Those who oppose it believe that this must be a conspiracy of subspace demons! Although they don't know what a subspace demon is or what a conspiracy is, they just want to oppose it.
In the process, a small number of slugs finally flowed out of the laboratory, and were even regarded as some kind of weapon in the black (meow) road.
Black (meow) road, there are all kinds of strange things. There are guys who control poisonous insects and beasts, and there are strange things that hide poison glands in their stomachs and fill acid tanks, compared to what is it to plant worms on their backs?
The Alliance's laboratories have even begun human trials. Of course, the test subjects are not humans, but various alien races that have come to gain citizenship for the Alliance.
Although the empire is a step slower, it has also begun to prepare. Anyway, there is no shortage of second-class races in their territory.
If it weren't for a sudden epidemic, this slug might have become some kind of social trend that spread to the whole universe.
In short, the epidemic, known as the slug flu, broke out almost simultaneously across the galaxy. For ordinary people, this is just an ordinary flu, but for individuals parasitized with slugs, it is a fatal terminal disease.
In just one year, more than 2 million people died. Well, if you count the slugs in your head, then double it again.
Since then, research on space slugs has reached a semi-stagnant stage, with only occasional small-scale experiments on some common animals.
The conclusion is disappointing that slugs do not turn orangutans into orangutans that can speak human language.
However, in the general public, as well as the current mainstream biological understanding, space slugs are still only a fragile mollusk despite their various magical functions.
Mollusks, on the other hand, are not able to memorize information.
"If today's findings get out, the existing research of the alliance will be completely turned upside down. It's incredible. Wang Jingyang said with emotion.
Because the ones born in the Alliance Lab are just unnatural replicas in the final analysis. They couldn't get the brains of these little slugs back!
Yu Lian thought.
"However, the information I observed was very confusing, with unknown language, very muddy images, and near-out-of-control psionic fluctuations, and it was not possible to fully resolve a complete set of clues. Clearer information, only these two......"
As he spoke, he passed two pictures to him.
One is a gloomy figure, only the eyes can make people see really, it is a pair of dark green, extremely deep eyes.
The other is a stone building in the middle of the mountains, which is very large-scale, but the shape is very classical, and it looks like a product of the pre-industrial age.
"It's the architectural style of the Lumina people. It's just that the building doesn't exist in the database, which is weird. Wang Jingyang said.
"The ancient wisdom core you captured earlier has also been determined. It's Frank...... It was Morey in South America, captured from a group of Lumina and Pansoul terrorists. Therefore, the mastermind of this matter has been basically determined above. ”
"I see." Yu Lian picked up the test tube and said with a smile: "You haven't reported the existence of this thing, have you?" ”
Wang Jingyang showed a sincere smile: "In the underworld, the space slug is theoretically a kind of weapon, since what you have captured is, of course, your trophy." At present, the only people who know about its existence are me and Grant, as well as the teacher. ”
Uncle Wang is indeed an honest man, but whoever thinks that honest people can't deceive people is really stupid.
"This is a discovery that can subvert the existing space slug research, and if you report it like this, the credit will definitely be snatched away by the people above. Xiao Yulian, do you want to do some complete research on your own and then publish it yourself? ”
Uh, what else are you studying? The past, present and future of these unlucky insects have all been cleaned up by the "Goddess of Wisdom" lady of the Alliance of Later Generations.
"I knew that a gifted child like you would always have many ideals! A powerful psyker, a good conductor, a far-sighted strategist, and now a genius scholar is no big deal. ”
…… Well, that sounds like the protagonist of a system stream!
"However, Xiao Yulian, you must pay attention to safety. Also, don't think about implanting yourself! Even if you don't take into account the slug flu, Qiluo and Lao Yu can't be stopped! Do you understand? You're young! Don't give up on the future! ”
