This is by far the most unusual transformation, as in the past the targets were dead or incomplete flesh and blood, but this time it was a direct assimilation of a complete intelligent being.

It may sound a bit evil, but Nesta did 'devour' the six-limbed erect creature with bones and skin, and even threw his consciousness into the virtual world of his own remote in the process, and then completely analyzed and memorized his personality and thinking patterns in countless scene simulations.

Therefore, at the moment, in addition to his own share of people, Nesta has also added a complete simulated personality, which can create one or more special, similar independent branches of thought.

It is not yet known what the exact effect of such an application will be, but for the sake of safety, he intends to open the personality on the body and then start the activity, so that it will become a cover for his own main consciousness.

~~~~~

Not long after Nesta's assimilation, the ship he was in sneakily completed the last leg of his journey.

This is an extremely empty star field, and there is almost no matter of any larger matter in the vast area, and the light of the stars from afar is powerless to dispel the darkness here.

The team's immediate station was hidden in the darkness, a pitch-black spherical space with a diameter of only about ten thousand meters, wrapped in black paint, with no trace of light and information leaking outward, even when viewed from a very close distance, it was likely to be confused in the background, and it was almost impossible to detect it when trying to observe it from a distant area.

The spacecraft, which had exited the transition state, was approaching the 'empty' area under very strict information control mode, and when it approached a certain point, it was swallowed up by the abruptly opened tunnel, and then came to the orderly creation space inside, and stopped steadily at the 'parking space' in a honeycomb layout.

After that, there is a whole process of checking for foreign intrusions, and in just a short period of time, a variety of methods are used together.

The verification results were naturally shown to be qualified, so the surrounding erected weapons and the soldiers who were preparing for battle a little further away were put away or disbanded, and the ship itself was no longer in a state of being bound by virtual and real means, and after receiving the stationing center, the inner members were given the instruction to 'allow to disembark', and the slave soldiers, who had been dormant almost the whole time, were also awakened at this moment.

Among them, more than 300 veterans who survived the last battle can then return to their respective residences in their respective stations to relax for a while, although a long period of dormancy is a more cost-effective and worry-free solution for the legion and squad, but if you consider the spirit and combat state of the slave soldiers, it is still necessary to keep themselves active and learning, so they will not be required to stay dormant in non-war time.

In the same way, the body occupied by Nesta was also 'awakened', and he went to a centralized medical examination with more than 600 new slaves of the same batch;

Maintaining a reasonable state of caution, but in fact, he was not very apprehensive, and he easily passed the first hurdle, his physical and mental attributes were very healthy, his skills were also in place, and there were no problems with psychological evaluation and memory testing;

In addition, Nesta also showed some potential to be better than the file in the inspection, which made the team leader call it excellent value for money without making the resident management suspicious.

When the round was over, Nesta was taken to a small chamber and asked to burrow into the equipment that covered her body, along with the rest of the slaves;

Immediately, a burst of inexplicable information came into his mind, and it was shaped into a fairly orderly video and audio view in constant adjustments

After the stereotype, the perception is not only constantly changing geometric shapes, but also complex and simple lines, from the outside, there are also large or misty sounds, and the ever-changing brilliant colors, all of which combine to form a kind of strange atmosphere, which seems to have been trying to arouse some emotions in Nesta's heart;

Eventually, they seemed to be reduced to a few lines, a few figures, a few syllables, and a few types of colors, which Nesta was asked to memorize in a constant stream of guidance, and to flash them in his mind frequently over the next ten galactic days.

Measuring the time and indicating that he had memorized it, the supervisor let him mentally repeat the process of meditation, and then confirmed by some means that he was indeed correct before he was allowed to go.

This is not the end of the matter, after going through the physical examination, the mental examination, the skill examination, and the unknown procedure before, the slave soldier who has completed the examination enters another cabin;

There were more than 100 slaves who entered the same chamber as him, and they had many things in common on the physical level, such as erect, multi-limbed, and headed, and the slaves who were brought to the rest of the chambers seemed to have obvious similarities and differences;

Here they were taught a set of dance-like movements, both the rhythm of the body, the rhythm of breathing, the emphasis on gait in the process, and the emphasis on cooperation with the slaves around them.

During the teaching, the instructor also greeted them, saying that they must memorize and skillfully complete this set of movements within ten days, and also asked them to be able to reproduce in their minds the 'meditation' taught in the upper cabin while performing the movements;

If, for some individual reason, the ritual goes wrong after ten days, the offender will face a severe punishment that is not fatal

After that, it was a practice process that lasted for ten galactic days, and these slave soldiers who had been trained in obedience in the Yin Tyrant Group also meticulously carried out all the orders according to the requirements, even if the rest time was compressed to the extreme, even if various punishments were constantly imposed in the process, there was no complaint;

Nesta was one of them, and was one of the best in terms of obedience and accuracy, and was able to stand out for his excellence and take the predetermined small leadership position that belonged to him.

So he became the leader of the 'dance troupe', and in addition to assisting the overseers in managing and teaching the rest of the slaves, he was additionally appreciated by the base supervisor, and he was able to accomplish or learn many things in just a few days.

For example, the ceremony will be performed by thousands of slave soldiers;

For another example, he secretly collected the genetic information of the flesh and blood life of the same batch of slave soldiers, and he also found the opportunity to get hundreds of samples of the rest of the thousands of slave soldiers;

For another example, Nesta took advantage of this window period that would not be subject to too strict supervision to create an analysis organ in the body and analyze nearly 1,000 samples, thus obtaining the life information of several flesh races in the river system;

Unfortunately, the slave soldiers introduced for the sake of management and ease of use are concentrated in a few specific races, and the scarce non-flesh races cannot be used at will when they do not understand their characteristics, so the abundance of harvest is limited to a certain extent;

But even so, Nesta was quite satisfied, and the information was sent to his hometown as soon as possible.

~~~~~~

After all, it was impossible for Nesta to carry out this set of rituals with unknown effects without warning, so while he was in the legion station from beginning to end, the analysis work on the side of the Republic Headquarters was also carried out simultaneously and at high speed with the cooperation of the rest of the spellcasters

Although the legion station is separated from the Republic by a great distance, this does not prevent Nesta from understanding all the processes here synchronously, because all the information of the previously transformed body is in his hands, so he can easily incarnate a part of the subject into a general four-armed and two-legged form, and whether it is the body structure, gene expression, or mental state, it is a 1-to-1 complete replica of 'Resident Nesta';

At this moment, there was a life form like this in his mind, which was similar to an unknown guidance scheme similar to 'meditation', and around it sat the combined bodies of many molecular-level spellcasters, and at this moment, he was observing the effects of 'dance' and 'meditation' from his inner vision.

After a few moments, Nesta stopped the doppelganger's 'meditation' and asked,

"Well, what's the conclusion?"

"Probably so."

After a rough discussion, the casters gave a preliminary answer, and one of them summarized it as a representative, saying,

"Indeed, as I guessed earlier, this set of things seems to have the effect of directing the generation of specific thoughts, and it should be a separate plan for different individuals, I just tried it with a Rhine clone and found that it had no effect."

"I agree with that."

Nesta replied with a deep groan,

"I asked the rest of the slaves and found that although they had all gone through the process of changing from chaos to order, from complex to simple, the minimalist scheme they produced in the end was completely different. When meditating with these different schemes, the specific effects seem to be the same for the corresponding individual, but the same scheme is not effective when applied to different individuals. ”

After that, Pigniesta Noir staged several rounds of 'dancing' in succession, and also came to a certain conclusion in repeated comparisons

According to the observations of the casters, ritual dance seems to have a certain 'weaving' effect on the somatic consciousness, but in terms of specific effects, it requires not only a specific meditation to be performed, but also at least hundreds of co-dancers to cooperate with each other to achieve the goal.

Nesta copied the dance moves, genetic samples, and meditation guides of the rest of the slaves, hoping to recreate the ritual ten days later in its entirety, but stopped before he could start dancing.

"I'm a little worried, according to some characteristics of our thoughts, once we complete the reproduction ritual here, will the legion have the ability to perceive it synchronously?"

Speaking in an uncertain tone, he frowned slightly and said,

"Just stop for the time being, let's get the step I need the most now, and then find an opportunity to master other things later."

For now, Nesta had never actually meditated and danced at the same time, and it was more out of concern than that the verification step had not yet reached that step.

"I have an idea"

A certain spellcaster's consciousness suddenly opened his mouth to attract his attention, and then analyzed,

"Since they still need to travel thousands of miles to the station to carry out the ceremony, rather than through remote communication on several more convenient occasions, can it be inferred that the station itself has some special characteristics and is an indispensable part of the ceremony? Or is it that the cooperation of the individual individuals in the ritual needs to be carried out effectively at a certain distance? If either of these two is true, then our concerns may not be warranted. ”

"Makes sense"

Under this conjecture, the following experiments begin to add the limiting factor of the distance level.

Hundreds of clones belonging to several river races are divided, all of which activate the 'six-limbed Nesta personality' and use the corresponding mind guidance method, but the dance to be performed will be copied from the corresponding body;

When these bodies were tested at different distances, the truth of the previous two speculations was clarified in the process.

It turns out that rituals can only be truly coordinated at a certain distance, and even if the Nesta clones perform the rituals at an effective distance, the woven thoughts will not be transmitted across the galaxy to the Legion;

According to observations, these thoughts converge in Valhalla and are diluted into normality by the elven aggregates, so they believe that the Legion station, or something within it, should also serve as a guide to the target, or that there is some unknown element in the middle.

In any case, this hinders the exploration of the nature of rituals, but at the same time, it also frees the Republic to complete some applied research

In the following days, the personality and body information of the six-limbed Nesta were copied to many spellcasters, and millions of six-limbed replicants with the same body and personality were born, and then with the cooperation of the personal experience of the distant Nesta and the accumulation of over-repeated cases, a series of preliminary experimental goals were quickly completed.

~~~~~~

The training continued, and after the batch of ritual participants gathered and practiced together several times in the later stages, a hazy mist finally filled the audience ten days later;

Nesta sensed the breath of a single being, and also experienced the breath of a realm that was like nothing, and the ritual was carried out in the mist.

The inner guidance scheme is at work, and the dance seems to have some kind of coordination mechanism with the fog-carrying realm, which together weaves and perfects the thoughts and 'lifts them up to the sky'.

Nesta vaguely felt as if she had been contained in a warm ocean from some point to along, a slight sense of belonging and identity lingered in her mind, and a sense of security that was always under her gaze was faintly presented;

He adheres to the 'purity' of the thread, and strictly restricts its connection and interaction with the main thread, so that these seemingly beautiful but bad feelings are resisted in the doppelganger, and do not spread to the 'self' along the real connection.

After a galactic ritual is over, Nesta can perceive effective loyalty brewing in the opposite effect, which has no real effect on him, but the rest of the slaves will gradually come to their senses;

There's also some sort of mechanism that starts monitoring the mind, and it seems that the slightest abnormality will be detected, so Nesta at least made the thread show conversion.

In short, the ceremony is over, and the new recruits who have succeeded at one time have also performed very well, and the next thing that needs to be done is to guide and deepen and teach the rules

Specifically, meditation had to be continued for at least 15 galactic days, which was the time required of Nesta, and the rest of the slaves varied in length or shorter, during which time they were also required to participate in training under the guidance of the old slaves;

In addition to completing skills training such as driving and combat, you will also have to take some courses similar to painting a pie

For example, the promotion requirements of slave soldiers from minus 9 to minus 1, the requirements for getting rid of slaves from minus 1 to 0, the promotion method of regular members from level 0 to 1, and the future promotion direction and merit requirements;

The slaves listened to these with hope and eagerness, and Nesta's sense of cover showed the same attitude, and the true consciousness did listen attentively;

He did want to try to stand out from the rules, and quickly become a full member of the legion, gaining access to further guidance and intelligence channels.

~~~~~~

The emergence of a real sample and a million high-fidelity samples has made considerable progress in the targeted research being carried out by the department

The casters grasped the essence of ritual, which led to the realization that it was also an application of natural disturbances, and that ritual itself was a process of weaving thoughts, engaging in the convergence of forces, and obtaining specific functional feedback;

The internal and external movements of the participant's body are very important, and the integration of the individual and the whole is like a kind of sincere directed prayer.

In the process, the overall spillover characteristics of thoughts are memorized, some specific thoughts are extracted relatively accurately, and then the contract is incorporated into the whole to form a connection.

At the same time, they also believe that the rituals and supporting thinking guidance methods used by the slave soldiers may only be the product of specific branches developed according to the stronger guidance methods, or at least they cannot endow the power and thought aggregation with various functions;

Therefore, the casters who participated in the research speculated that there should be different guidance methods to adapt to the internal level of the legion, and finally gradually ascended to the level of supervisor, big supervisor, and even the legion leader.

What the Republic has at this time is the most rudimentary part of it, which is only aimed at slave soldiers, and the results that can be obtained from this are not foolish.

However, they have come up with a camouflage scheme that can be applied to the slaves, which not only allows Nesta to think about some of the most rebellious things in the surveillance, but also allows them to switch to a real personality that has not been recorded by the Legion while maintaining a shallow spill disguise.

The latter may seem like a little use, but in reality it means that with the support of the camouflage scheme, the molecular-level caster can bypass supervision and take on Legion minions who have completed rituals, transforming them and completely replacing their identities.

Therefore, Nesta has the intention to manage the identity of the legion well at this time, and then try to get the follow-up guidance method to see the results.
