On Wang Chao's side, after compiling something about Omni Nisaiah, the god of all machines, he enjoyed the performance of Gaius and others with satisfaction.

The last time he took the initiative to make something up like this was when he was facing a superpowered person on the Doyle space station.

Before that, he just wanted to wander the world with a beautiful girl and live a life without shame.

Now, he's the Emperor of the United Star Cluster.

To explain a person's fate, in addition to his own efforts, he also depends on the course of history.

Wang Chaozheng sighed, and Gaius asked, "Then, Your Excellency Honorary Archon for Life, where should we go to find the 'Dao'?" ”

Where to look, look for the corpse of the guy who was just burned by the ship's laser.

Because he was wandering, Wang Chao realized a second late that Gaius was asking where there were the remains of an alien civilization.

He didn't know what to say, because he didn't know where the ruins that had been discovered were yet, let alone the ruins that had been discovered now.

After a brief hesitation, he decided to tell the truth: "I don't know. ”

Gaius was shocked: "You don't know? But wasn't the conquest of the United Star Cluster by Organization X because there were ruins in the Cluster's control zone? ”

There is no such thing! Nor do we want to conquer the United Cluster, which you have sent us at your own heart.

Wang Chao: "The return of the United Star Cluster is actually beyond our expectations. The Starwhisperer only pointed the way here, and didn't say what would happen here. ”

To put it bluntly, we grabbed the United Star Cluster selected by lot as the next destination, originally just to cheat some supplies, and we didn't expect you to surrender at all.

Gaius let out an "oh" and hurriedly asked, "Then can you ask the Star Whisperers of Organization X to predict where there are relics in the United Star Cluster?" ”

Wang Chao could only bite the bullet and continue to add settings to the star whisperer: "The star whisperer just listens to the whispers of the stars, and can't ask questions to the stars." When the time is right, there will naturally be a revelation of the next step. ”

Wang Chao didn't know what the alien ruins looked like, so even if he wanted to make up something to deceive people, it was not easy to make it up. When he really finds the alien ruins, go in and take a look, he can probably come up with some tricks to deceive people.

Now we can only prevaricate in this way.

After the Adventure Club is killed, Wang Chao will have to investigate the alien ruins it has mastered to see what is going on with the aliens.

Now, Wang Chao picked up the wine glass placed next to him and raised it high: "Now, let's toast to the new life of the United Star Cluster!" ”

Gaius and the others didn't have wine in their hands, but the drone immediately brought the wine, so they also raised their glasses: "Cheers!" ”

**

That night, Wang Chao finally returned to the Jackdaw.

The members of the left-behind team were all waiting in the warehouse, and several beautiful women gathered around a pile of molten metal and charcoal.

Apparently this is the superpowered person of the Unified Sect who was eliminated by the ship's laser.

Wang Chao looked at Helena first: "Can you explain?" ”

Helena: "Should I leave first?" ”

During the period after the Jackdaw entered hyperspace, there was absolutely no need to worry about being eavesdropped, and it was the only time when I could be 100% relieved.

Wang Chao nodded: "Okay, this will notify the port, we have to leave temporarily." ”

**

Team Erin was resting in shifts at this time, and suddenly the agent on duty turned to "Erin" who was closing her eyes on the sofa and said, "The Jackdaw has left the port!" ”

Agent Erin didn't open his eyes: "They just fished out the body of a superpower, and they are estimated to be sent back to the mothership." The Mothership of Form X must have been floating in the void within five hundred light-years of the vicinity. ”

Duty Agent: "Isn't that mothership docked for supplies?" ”

Erin: "The current spaceship, except for helium-three, can be renewed indefinitely, and conversely, as long as there is a cargo ship to transport helium-three, the mothership does not need to call at the port. When the mothership docks, that's when we unveil the mysterious X-Organization. ”

Erin was silent for a few seconds, and added: "I have a hunch that when this mysterious mothership really appears, something big will definitely happen." ”

**

After leaving the usual space, Wang Chao asked Helena again: "Explain?" ”

The psychology professor spread his hands out: "According to the broadcast of 'I think, therefore I am', we can be sure that this is a unified ship. Those people were on the verge of madness. Most of them have hallucinogen addiction. ”

Wang Chao: "Are you saying that they knocked themselves into a high and then played the whole boat to death?" ”

At this time, Nimeow said: "I just wanted to say, I found a record in the database of the United Star Cluster, this I think I am in the number, I was hired by the Three Sages before. ”

"What? What are you hired for? Hit us? ”

Nimeow: "Yes, and then the Three Sages write 'missing' at the end of the employment record. ”

Wang Chao touched his chin, and suddenly thought of something: "When we were fighting against the three sages, weren't we ambushed, we relied on Nia's superpowers, and found that the ambush was the first to strike, and then the ambushed boat ran away."

"Isn't it...... Is that the one? ”

Nimeow: "I don't know, after all, the records of the three sages don't say anything about the course and outcome of the battle, nor do they say where they ambushed. ”

Helena: "If it's that one, that would explain it." ”

Before she could explain, Nia spoke first: "They were scared by us when they were ambushed before, and this time they came back under a lot of pressure, and the believers are expected to pray when they are stressed, and the Unification Church uses hallucinogens when they pray."

"As a result, they're in a high-pressure state, am I right?"

Helena: "No. The act of praying itself can relieve stress, as can the use of hallucinogens. I'm still leaning towards hallucinogens that cause them all to go crazy. ”

Gale: "From their point of view, they are not crazy, but in the face of the witch's obscenity, they have made a singing and crying resistance. I don't know if I'm going to canonize them after the Unification Church. ”

"It's outrageous." Wang Chao raised his forehead, "The United Star Cluster cast inexplicably, and then the Unification Sect inexplicably began to eulogize courage, and we, as the Demon King, did nothing." ”

Ni Meow: "Let's hurry up and recycle the Dao, I've been tired of meditating all day and night to give you 'gong'." ”

"This corpse has been burned like this by a battleship-level laser, and the devil knows if there is a way." Wang Chao said as he stretched out his hand to the suspected humanoid object where steel and charcoal melted together.

He felt the movement of the Word.

Wang Chao: "I really got it, just one person." ”

Helena was overjoyed: "Then give it to me quickly!" ”

Gale: "Helena is in a hurry to plant a meme for us!" We're going crazy! ”

Lily: "Aren't you crazy?" ”

"That's right. That's fine. ”

Moments later, Helena's superego appeared.

Helena: "I have an idea, using this experience, maybe my superpowers can be used for more than just infiltrating in the future." ”

As soon as she said that, she raised her hand, and a "Sadako" appeared in the warehouse.

Wang Chao: "You want to pretend to be a ghost to scare people?" ”

Helena smiled: "How could I do such a low-level thing." There was a movie called "Mind Game" in ancient times, have you seen it? ”

Nimeow: "He's definitely seen it, he's seen it in the 21st century, as long as it's famous." ”

Wang Chao: "I did watch it, it was a very good psychological thriller, you mean, you can do something similar?" ”

Helena: "Not only can I do it, but I don't have to call on so many resources, I can get the target into a psychological thriller game with just a little interference with my cognition." ”

Wang Chao: "And then drive people crazy?" ”

"No, in fact, I can't control the other party's reaction, psychology is not real brainwashing after all, I know the general direction of change in this way, but I can't be sure of the details of the change."

Wang Chao: "I see. ”

At this time, Nimeth suddenly said, "Wait a minute, since Helena is now in a situation where she can fiddle with our hearts at any time, wouldn't it be dangerous to give her superpowers?" ”

Lily smiled: "Here it is again, Nimeow is going to instigate Wang Chao to abandon us again." As soon as she got on the boat, she kept persuading Wang Chao to throw me away. ”

Helena: "I've said it 10,000 times, psychology is not brainwashing, if you are induced by a psychologist, it means that you already have this desire in your heart."

"Take the people I deceived, many people are eager to make a lot of money and take advantage of it, so they will be deceived.

"If you don't have any desire for a windfall, you won't be deceived."

Wang Chao waited for a second to make sure Helena was finished, and then suggested: "You should add 'understand applause' at the end." ”

Helena looked at the ceiling: "Hear the applause." ”

Lily was amused by her expression.

Helena said: "All in all, this time, to put it bluntly, they tossed themselves, and they made a mistake when they made a mistake. As long as you don't make any mistakes in thinking, the Eight Achievements will be fine. ”

After speaking, she looked at Ni Meow: "It's Ni Meow, you're already thinking about it, maybe I can do something to you?" ”

Nimeow: "Don't worry, I'll let Superme punch me, like this." ”

Nimeow's superego, the "replica" of her, punches Helena into the cognitive hallucinations Helena created.

Wang Chao: "Ni Meow, that's a cognitive hallucination created by others, it's not ...... to play hallucinations"

His words were half dumb, because Sadako's hallucinations really disappeared.

Wang Chao: "Wang Defa? ”

Helena was also shocked: "Disappeared? ”

Nia snapped her fingers: "This is played by Professor Helena!" ”

Helena: "It's really gone, I didn't do anything!" ”

Gale also joined in the coaxing: "It's the same as the real thing!" You're starting to lie to us! ”

Helena: "I didn't! Nimeow's superego...... Wait a minute, you can't see the superego if you don't have superpowers, right? ”

Gale: "I can't see it!" But that doesn't stop me from heckling! ”

Wang Chao gave Gale Head a knife: "Don't make trouble, we are studying the nature of superpowers." Helena, tell me the truth, you really didn't make it disappear on purpose? ”

"Yes." Helena held her chin, "I think the problem is actually with me, I saw Nimeow's superego punch, and my subconscious thought it should go away." ”

Nia: "Maybe it's not psychological, the main carrier of superpowers, it's a relic of an alien supercivilization, right?" It's this nanomachine, right? Nanomachines belonging to different people may interfere with each other. ”

Helena: "With the conjecture, the rest is ......"

Nia: "Design the experiment. First of all, we should verify conjecture 1, which Helena proposed, which is the work of her subconscious. ”

An experiment was quickly devised by Nya: Helena had to turn her back to the cognitive hallucinations she had created and blindfolded, in which case Nimeow silently punched the illusion.

As a result, Helena had just been blindfolded and the illusion vanished.

Wang Chao: "Uh, Helena? Sadako-san is gone. ”

Nia: "In other words, Helena had to know us in order to modify our knowledge. ”

Gale: "Tongue twister? ”

Wang Chao: "You go to drink, you don't need to participate in this kind of thing." ”

"Okay." Gale resolutely went to sit next to him and drink.

Lily glanced at her, probably thinking that she was a little pitiful, so she walked over and sat down next to her: "Give me a glass of wine." ”

"Hehe, it's still my stepmother who loves me." Gale shoved the bottle into Lily's hand, and rubbed it against her, looking like a cat coming to make out with someone.

The rest of us are still concentrating on superpowers.

Wang Chao took off Helena's hood, and the hallucinations returned.

Nimeow: "In other words, this superpower is more limited than you imagined." ”

Helena smiled slightly: "How can you be sure that this is not played by me?" Maybe I'm misleading you. ”

Wang Chao: "Okay, don't tease our hackers. In the future, everyone will be a family, don't doubt each other. ”

Helena: "Good. ”

Nia: "You're also curious to figure out how superpowers work, right?" I don't think I should be able to cheat in this kind of thing. ”

Helena: "Are you sure?" ”

Nia: "You and I are actually the same kind, I don't know what happened to you before you left your research position and started to explore the world. But if you are given the opportunity, you will definitely return to research. ”

Helena was silent for a second, then smiled contemptuously, "I didn't know that Professor Nia was also accomplished in psychology. ”

"No, I just think so, and there's no reason for it." Nia shrugged, "I've designed a new experiment to further validate the fact that you can modify the target's cognition when you recognize it." ”

Saying that, Nia put up the tablet in her hand: "Ah, by the way, I'll send it to you directly." I'm used to lecturing and showing teaching aids or something. ”

Helena: "Lectures are made to give students a sense of being listening to lectures through this kind of 'ritual' action, which in turn improves their learning efficiency. I still put forward the relevant theories, and I also presided over the experiments, which can indeed improve the learning efficiency by about 10%.

"I've read the experimental plan, and there's nothing to improve, so let's follow this."

Then the two professors immediately set about experimenting.

Wang Chao wanted to interject, but he didn't find a chance for a long time, so he could only run to the side and watch them busy with Ni Meow.

Nimeow touched Wang Chao's arm with her shoulder, establishing a physical connection, and through this connection, she said, "I still think Helena is acting." ”

"Don't be like this, you don't doubt that she can't do anything to you, she can play you at any time if you come like this."

"Hmph, I have a trump card for her! Have you forgotten that we have Peppa on board? Paige was completely unaffected by her abilities. ”

Helena's ability is the AI.

If the United Cluster had continued to use AI as extensively as it had done before, she wouldn't have been able to do anything.

Wang Chao chatted with Ni Meow for a long time, and the first wave of experiments ended.

Nia summarized the results of the experiment: "It is basically confirmed that Helena's abilities can work on an unspecified majority of entities that she perceives, for example, on the very general concept of 'the person who sees me'. ”

Wang Chao: "Then why is it ineffective after covering your eyes?" ”

Helena: "Because of the act of covering my eyes and the subsequent loss of the eye prosthesis, I developed the perception that my cognition was 'cognitively blocked'.

"Actually, when I first masked, my phased array radar was still working, and my hearing was working, and I could locate you, but my superpower was still 'disconnected', and that's because of that.

"In the test just now, I gradually overcame this 'self-deception', and as long as the phased array or hearing can confirm the person's ability, I will not lose gear. In Experiment 3, I gradually cut off my external senses, and finally confirmed that cognitive intervention was not possible once the sound, light, and phased array were blocked.

"The sense of touch in the limbs doesn't do anything. Even if the target of cognitive interference touches my hand, the interference is interrupted. ”

Wang Chao: "I understand, in short, you have to recognize the target before you can interfere with the target." The question is, how do we determine if Nimeow's punch to Sadako is due to psychological effects or because of nanomechanical contact? ”
