Chapter 117: Warning From the Fourteenth Legion, Yuhui's Psychic Device

Chen Ming was quite confused when he looked at the screen on Lao Wu's terminal.

He had just passed on the message that should be sent back, and in the blink of an eye, there was something else?

He had clearly explained everything that should be explained, and told Lao Wu the galaxy map and the specific location and asked him to pass it on.

It's not necessary to confirm with him again, right?

It shouldn't be necessary.

Moreover, the company did not actively contact them before Chen Ming, and did not interfere with Chen Ming except for normal monitoring.

So this sudden contact might be something urgent?

Chen Ming thought about it and decided to pay attention to them.

After all, the person who could make the factory director Lao Wu cooperate and actively come to him must be at least a person of certain weight in the company.

And there were people from the 14th Legion next to him, which was actually a very special signal that the company contacted him.

A few times before, when Chen Ming was chatting with Lao Wu after finishing his work, Lao Wu mentioned the situation of the 14th Legion.

They drove away the original star zone garrison, replaced the original military and stayed, and took over everything left behind.

This naturally included Sky Steel.

Since Sky Steel itself has a shady origin, the name of the Fourteenth Corps can dispel many people who have participated in it before.

Until now, those who still have unrealistic ideas about Sky Steel and dare to reach out can be dealt with by the Fourteenth Corps.

But the Fourteenth Corps itself seems to have some special ideas about Sky Steel, but it is more ambiguous, so there are some conflicts with the company.

If the Fourteenth Corps and the company can really appear together, it must be because there is really an emergency to find him.

After Chen Ming figured it out, he connected the communication signal to Lao Wu's terminal.

Under Lao Wu's operation, the video communication was connected to the factory director's office.

Of course, there is no video signal on Chen Ming's side. After all, although the communication was initiated by Chen Ming, it actually started from the dim light of the maintenance plant, so now only Chen Ming can see the factory director's office unilaterally.

After confirming the signal was connected, the factory director looked serious and said: "Xiao Ming, the 14th Corps has very urgent news to communicate with you directly. The person next to you is the person sent by the company to testify to this matter."

"If things are really as they said, then I think you'd better take it seriously."

"Let them tell you the details."

After the factory director said this, Chen Ming had to listen no matter what, to hear what the people of the 14th Corps wanted to say to him.

"I know, I'm listening."

The factory director nodded to the officer of the 14th Corps beside him.

The officer did not talk about the purpose of looking for Chen Ming right away, but mentioned something else.

"Mr. Chen Ming, I don't know if you are paying attention to the public war intelligence of the Empire in the Sunset Star Region, which is the star region where we are fighting with the Yuhui Army."

Chen Ming knew that the Empire had been fighting with the Yuhui Army on the other side, but he was limited to knowing it. He generally didn't pay much attention to the specific war.

So Chen Ming gave a negative answer.

The officer got this answer and said, "Then please let me briefly explain it to you."

"We have gained an overall advantage in the battle with Yuhui in the Sunset Star Region during this period. After Yuhui's defeat shortened the defense line, the battle has entered a stalemate and it is difficult to break through."

"But as long as we continue to suppress Yuhui, their front line will be conquered sooner or later."

"So in order to find a way, Yuhui chose to transport a piece of equipment to a certain place through a high-power output energy source and supporting facilities for ultra-long-distance transportation of goods."

"We discovered this and responded immediately."

"In this special battle, we successfully broke through Yuhui's defense line and achieved results again, but we failed to achieve the ultimate strategic goal and failed to stop Yuhui from sending their things away."

"However, with our continued attack, we successfully broke into their colony before Yuhui destroyed the information of the equipment they transported."

"The special operations team obtained relevant intelligence, and now the investigation has also come to an inconclusive result. The things sent away by the mechanical race are some kind of psychic devices."

Psychic power?

Yu Hui had just brought Chen Ming, a psychic with outrageous abilities, to them. So it would be strange if people didn't associate the action of transporting psychic equipment over a long distance.

Chen Ming quickly connected the logic of the matter in his mind, and then said to the officer: "I have a few questions."

"Go ahead."

"Are there psychics in the special operations team?"

Chen Ming's question made the officers of the 14th Corps a little unresponsive.

Obviously, this question has nothing to do with this matter. Chen Ming asked it purely because he wanted to ask it. It didn't matter if he answered it.

"Yes."

"Okay,"

Satisfied with his curiosity, Chen Ming said in a businesslike manner: "From what you said, Yu Hui and the others sent things to Yu Hui here?"

"Yes."

"Yu Hui sent a piece of equipment from the Sunset Star Region to the Galo Star Region where we are now, and even my current location is outside the Galo Star Region, such a remote place?"

"Yes."

"Didn't they send anything else? Like a fleet or something?"

"No, only equipment."

"Why?"

"Although the ultra-long-distance transport equipment used by Yuhui is similar to the Star Gate, the actual operating logic is completely different from the Star Gate."

"Although the transportation distance is farther than the Star Gate, the corresponding consumption is also the same. At such a distance, Yuhui is completely unable to support fleet-scale transportation."

Chen Ming has no knowledge of this equipment yet. In the face of uncertainty, he chooses to believe the officer's words.

"But I remember that Yu Hui had problems when he touched spiritual stones, which are related to psychic energy. Wouldn't it be more problematic to touch this kind of psychic energy equipment?"

"You only know part of it."

The officer directly pointed out the obvious mistakes in Chen Ming's words and explained to Chen Ming: "Yu Hui will indeed be affected by spiritual stones, which are objectively spreading psychic energy fluctuations, but this has nothing to do with psychic energy equipment."

"Although the existence of psychic energy is indeed difficult for Yu Hui to understand and it is indeed not easy for them to touch, it does not completely make Yu Hui unable to touch psychic energy."

"As long as sufficient protective measures are taken, even young children can safely touch things related to psychic energy."

"And the equipment that Yu Hui just sent away is most likely not developed by them themselves, but found in the ruins of another civilization."

"This gets rid of most of the problems they are studying."

The officer suddenly realized something and asked: "Do you know this civilization I am talking about?"

"I know this."

Chen Ming's mind flashed through the mechanical tribes he had encountered on Ruimu and the mind pulse generator.

And the planet with a large number of mechanical buildings that was found when Qu Guang was sent out before.

The mechanical race is one of the relics of this civilization.

"They left various relics in many star fields, and the pioneering era flourished because of this, until the successive appearance of Yu Hui and the mechanical race caused us to stagnate."

The officer nodded slightly and said, "It's easy to say if you know."

"The other civilization has a very deep grasp and research on mechanical technology, biotechnology, and psychic technology."

"So we are not surprised at all that Yu Hui finds any psychic equipment from the heritage of this civilization."

"And a piece of psychic equipment was forcibly transported here on Yu Hui's territory at great risk, which shows that Yu Hui Hui is very urgent about this. "

"If Yu Hui himself needs it, there is no need to use emergency transportation, so this equipment must be specially used to target you."

Chen Ming was still a little uncertain at this time, and asked: "Are you 100% sure that Yu Hui is targeting me? Maybe Yu Hui found a facility like the Psychic Research Institute left by that civilization somewhere else? Need to use this equipment?"

"No, because we have observed the direction of the equipment they transported, which is here."

"Okay, then I have nothing to say."

The ultra-long distance on the scale of the universe is a distance that even the star gate cannot directly transmit.

In this case, the direction of transporting things must be as accurate as it can be.

So since the direction has been determined, and there happens to be a Chen Ming in this direction, the probability that Yu Hui happens to find something in this direction is basically zero.

Chen Ming accepted the fact that Yu Hui was about to take action against him, and said, "So why did you come to me?"

The officer said, "We hope you can provide us with more information about Yu Hui so that we can quickly rescue you."

"We also know that it is very difficult to obtain intelligence from Yu Hui, and it may even be dangerous, so we will assist you in obtaining that information while trying our best to protect your safety."

"Well... let me think about it."

"Please do it as soon as possible."

Taking advantage of this time, Chen Ming quickly contacted the boss through Weiguang and quickly told him the news given by the 14th Corps.

But when Chen Ming was halfway through, the boss stopped him and said, "I know everything you just said."

"They invited me to their joint meeting before, and the content of the meeting was all about you and Yu Hui."

"Let me put it this way, I can confirm that the news from the 14th Corps is true."

Chen Ming went over the words of the 14th Corps officer in his mind again and said, "Does that mean I'm in trouble now?"

"It's highly likely. In fact, if you need it, I can find a way to rescue you directly. There's no need for those unnecessary things."

"But if you have been transferred to a place with stricter supervision on Yu Hui's side, the danger is too high, and I can't help."

Old Wu's news spreads a little too fast.

Chen Ming complained in his heart.

Then he said half to himself and half to his boss: "This is the path I chose."

"So you have to go on your own from now on, but I can also help you in some places, so if you have any questions, ask them now."

"Okay, what is the use of this device?"

"I don't know. Yu Hui used encrypted information files to store data on such things. So far, only so much has been deciphered. We can only confirm that it is indeed a device related to psychic power."

"Based on my experience, this device is almost the same type of thing. It is unlikely to have any effect on ordinary people, but it will be a big trouble for you."

"After all, there is absolutely no reason for Yuhui to do unnecessary things. They must have their purpose in getting this device."

"Then the purpose is clear at a glance, isn't it you?"

"You should rather believe that you have it."

Chen Ming somewhat agreed with his boss's statement.

Like the afterglow of today.

Mingming had just been given a day and a half to rest, but he suddenly and hurriedly asked Chen Ming to leave immediately and go to a new place.

I'm afraid it has something to do with the psychic equipment that was transported.

Since Chen Ming already knows that the whole thing has begun to undergo unknown changes, and there are still unknown changes that may directly threaten Chen Ming's own spiritual power.

Then Chen Ming must carefully consider the communication with the 14th Army Corps.

The information needed by the Fourteenth Legion can be provided, but Chen Ming does not want others to know yet that he can gradually spread his control over Yuhui like a virus.

Because this might not be a good situation for other people.

Who would want the afterglow to be unified under one person?

So the information can be given, but only part of it.

Chen Ming returned to the factory director's office and asked the officer who had been waiting for a while: "What do you need?"

The officer of the 14th Legion breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

When Chen Ming said these words, his mission was completed.

"Mr. Chen, I am only responsible for negotiating with you. Please communicate with our speaker here in person for details."

"Alright."

Chen Ming agreed to the officer's request, and soon with his help, he re-established communication with another person.

On the video communication screen, you can see that the other party is a man who looks to be in his thirties or forties and wearing a pair of square-framed glasses.

Chen Ming went to check out the Fourteenth Army after learning about it before.

If he saw it correctly, the man in front of him was a major general.

After the communication was connected, the major general took the initiative and said to Chen Ming: "Hello, I am the person in charge of the 14th Army Corps here, Bai Quan."

"I am Chen Ming, let's not talk nonsense now. I have been taken to the new galaxy I marked on the star map by the afterglow. I may not have time after that."

"Mr. Chen, you seemed to have said before that there are two more days?"

"It was two days before, but just now, about twenty minutes ago, there was an emergency notification from Yuhui, asking me to leave immediately."

The major general instantly realized the seriousness of the problem and said: "Understood, let me tell you straight away. We need your precise location now, the arrangement of defense forces here, and the location of the core galaxy of Afterglow."

"This may be a little difficult, but we can help you. We just need some clues."

Chen Ming thought for a moment and said, "You're talking about the location of Yuhui's Kletka supercomputer, right?"

"you know?"

"Yes, I used to like reading history books."

"Let me just say this, my current location is most likely near Kletka."

Through the dim light, Chen Ming sent a galaxy map file with more marks on it to the factory director, and forwarded the file to Bai Quan through the officer in the office.

Many galaxies with afterglow colonies are marked above.

Of course, Chen Ming only marked whether there were colonies or not. He did not mark the other marks on the star map that Gamma A had given him.

And it is also part of the colony that is open to all afterglows according to the detailed information given by Gamma A.

These alone have clearly drawn a sphere on the star map.

"Did you see it? This small group of areas is empty in the middle, but surrounded by a large number of colonies belonging to the afterglow."

"I'm on the periphery now, so the core surrounding these colonial galaxies must be here."

"this……"

Bai Quan thought that if Chen Ming wanted to obtain Yu Hui's information, they would need their help and assistance to steal information from Yu Hui in various ways.

Maybe they have to hand over some blueprints of military spy equipment and let Chen Ming use it. Maybe he can get some clues after half a month.

After all, in their estimation, Yuhui should never give Chen Ming the chance to come into contact with Yuhui.

At the same time, Yuhui who is suspected of having contact with Chen Ming is controlled to ensure that there will be no subsequent communication with Chen Ming and other Yuhui individuals.

Although Yuhui did what they thought, they did not completely limit Chen Ming's opportunities to contact Yuhui from other places.

Therefore, this has led to the current result.

As a result, the direction of things was different from what Bai Quan thought.

However, Bai Quan also quickly figured out the reason why Chen Ming obtained this information.

It was the Afterglow individuals that Chen Ming had controlled before, who had already given this star map to Chen Ming before.

So he didn't realize how exaggerated Chen Ming's ability was at this time.

After reading the star map, Bai Quan habitually asked Chen Ming: "Can these locations be determined?"

Chen Ming did not answer directly, but said: "You don't have to believe it."

Bai Quan pushed up his glasses, hid his eyes behind the reflective lenses and said, "Then I believe it, is there any other information?"

"No, I'm still in space now, and I don't even know which planet I'm going to."

"The most I can tell you now is that the fleet escorting me consists of two cruisers, forty destroyers, and one hundred and ten escorts. One cruiser model is brilliant and the other is refracted. That's all."

"By the way, I have seen colonies on two atmosphereless planets in my current galaxy."

"Also saw traces of unnatural construction on a volcanic planet, which is just one galaxy."

"You should know what these mean, and you certainly don't need me to teach you how to fight."

"You guys must know better than me what will happen if we really fight, so from now on... it's up to you."

"It's best to inform me before any action is taken so that I can be prepared."

Bai Quan noticed some casualness in Chen Ming's words. He didn't seem to care about their rescue. He didn't know if he had any confidence or special means.

Bai Quan didn't have any objections to Chen Ming's attitude. Anyway, he had seen many people with worse attitudes.

As long as he doesn't make a fool of himself in the end, Chen Ming's ability has already destined him to have such an attitude.

So Bai Quan answered simply: "Yes, but it will take some time for us to carry out rescue."

"You just seemed to have said that Yuhui's psychic equipment has been sent over. If you want to save me, you won't forget about it, right?"

Bai Quan said immediately: "Of course not, but if the situation is really urgent, we will not choose to contact you first, but will directly start taking action."

"The reason is that the ultra-long-distance transmission technology used by Yuhui cannot deliver the transmitted items to the destination instantly."

"And it takes about half a month to get from the Sunset Star Territory all the way to the Galo Star Territory."

"So you don't need to worry too much about the equipment at the moment."

"So slow?"

"Afterglow uses a new technology that is still under development."

"And we happen to be currently researching this technology, and we started researching this technology first, so we have such an estimate."

Bai Quan didn't say a word. If their fourteenth legion wanted to stop Yu Hui from transporting this psychic device, they actually had the ability to do so.

Because the technology used by Afterglow is a special technology that is similar to hyperspace, but has many different phase spaces.

It happens to use the same technology as the phase ship that their Fourteenth Legion is jointly developing with Tachyon Technology.

That is, as long as they can install the phase equipment in advance on the path of Afterglow's delivery of the equipment in phase space.

Then this device can be intercepted by them midway.

But the problem is that the current phase technology of the Fourteenth Legion is still not stable.

Phase space is very special. Unlike hyperspace, which seems to shrink the universe, it is more like a mirror image of the real universe.

If the time could be delayed by another year or two, they might be able to affect the existence inside the mirror outside the mirror.

But now, they can only watch.

Fortunately, the Empire's Sunset Star Territory and the Gallo Star Territory are physically quite far apart.

As a mirror image, the phase space station now has a stable transportation effect, but its speed is definitely not as fast as traveling through hyperspace, let alone traveling through a star gate.

And it just so happens that the Fourteenth Legion can rely on the Star Gate to make uninterrupted ultra-long-distance jumps.

A large number of support fleets were deployed in the Gallo star field earlier than Yuhui's equipment.

Apart from this equipment, Yuhui has no support capabilities at all.

If they want to get here as quickly as the Legion, they can only use the Star Gate.

But the Empire’s Stargate Afterglow cannot be used.

Sunset wants to move quickly by relying on the Star Gate, unless they build a Star Gate Corridor along the border of the Empire to surround the entire Empire.

But as long as there is no problem with the brain or the core logic of this approach, there will be no afterglow to do it.

Therefore, Yuhui can only rely on the individuals they already have in this star field to defend against the siege of the Fourteenth Legion.

The plan is absolutely executable logically.

Also, it is best to get stuck just before the time when the psychic equipment is about to be delivered.

Bai Quan and Chen Ming said a few more words and finished talking about business.

Suddenly he said casually: "By the way, Mr. Chen Ming, I want to talk to you about what you learned from cleaning the battlefield before."
