After the flying saucer captured the entire sect, I became very popular among the stars.

The two of them did not go back to Princess Ye, but came to a roast duck restaurant with a unique decoration.

Let's not talk about how Shen Yu was able to find a roast duck restaurant that was still open in the dark street in the middle of the night... Just choosing roast duck as a midnight snack already made Chu Yao feel strange.

She originally wanted to recommend the food stall not far from Princess Ye.

Seeing the man in front of him meticulously pouring various sauces on the roasted duck meat, Chu Yao couldn't help but wonder if this was the young master of the Shen family who had the courage to confront him just now?

"This sauce is very particular, so I asked them to bring it up directly after baking. You see, this must be put first..."

"Mr. Shen, I'm not here to listen to you tell me how to handle roast duck."

"Okay, but you have to eat before you can work." He tore off a duck leg and handed it to Chu Yao, "Try it?"

"..." Chu Yao resisted the urge to lift the table.

"Okay, I know you are anxious, but many things cannot be explained clearly in a few words." Shen Yu put down the condiment bottle in his hand, "What do you want to hear?"

"...Let's talk about the Blood Guest Alliance first?"

"The name is Xue Ke, but most people who know them call them the Killer Alliance... They are present in all the galaxies under the alliance's rule, including Xixian, Ryūchi, Kukai, and the newly discovered fourth system.

As the name suggests, it is an underground organization that cultivates and develops killers. It is said that they have their own official website. Occasionally, someone will post bounty tasks on it and collect money to kill people. Their targets range from planetary leaders to company bosses. They are a group of desperadoes who are at large. . "

"In other words, the person who just wanted to assassinate me might have accepted the reward on their website?"

"Well, that's probably it."

"This gang of people is so arrogant, you public servants just let them do whatever they want?"

"Sister, I would like to arrest... This organization has existed for a long time, and its forces are so intertwined that there is no way to start. All the alliance can do is to constantly eliminate their forces, but it is difficult to damage its roots."

"So if they didn't succeed this time, will they come again?"

"Yes." Shen Yu nodded, "So you have to be prepared for the next attack."

"Is there no other way? Should I just let them chase me?"

It wasn't that she was afraid, but it was quite annoying to think about having to be constantly on guard against cold knives that might appear around her.

"Of course there are ways. You can find a way to get the person who hates you to remove the reward, but the prerequisite is that you can find him. By the way, you psykers should be able to block guns. You don't have to be so afraid of them. Just hit back every one you meet. Now. I wonder what level you are now? Can you upgrade?"

"You think this is playing a game, there is no need for me to tell you this."

"Okay." Shen Yu shrugged, picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

It seems that no more questions can be asked about this killer for the time being, and Shen Yu probably doesn't know the details of Huang Long.

Chu Yao thought for a moment and decided to change the question:

"To what extent have your heavenly beings' research on spiritual energy reached?"

"I shouldn't have to tell you this."

"..."

Shen Yu felt that the roast duck in front of him seemed to be floating and dripping oil on the plate.

"Wait! Calm down. We have to talk about the principle of mutual benefit, right?" Shen Yu's mouth twitched, why is this person so angry!

"These things cannot be explained clearly in just a few words. How about this? I'll tell you part of what I know after you take over the East Eighth Ring Road first."

"...Then let's pick something simple, such as the matrix on your body, and the vacuum cleaner you used in Princess Night."

Chu Yao didn't want to get angry. In fact, the talent of the guy opposite seemed to be all about provocation.

She was usually quite calm, but when she saw this person named Shen, she became angry.

Shen Yu burst out laughing when she heard "vacuum cleaner", and then saw Chu Yao's expression of wanting to kill someone, and quickly recalled all kinds of sad past events in her mind.

"You mean vacuum, hahaha, I'm sorry." Shen Yu couldn't help but laugh. "Its official name is 'Psychic Measurement Instrument', which can detect traces of psychic activity remaining on objects within three months." , if something is discovered, it will beep and sound the alarm.”

"As for that matrix, it is used to defend against small psychic attacks in emergencies... All these technologies come from the Psychic Research Institute of the 'Panlong Land Scientific Research Center'.

As you can see, although it is not known how you psykers use this power, maybe it is a racial talent...but you are also 'using' it. After all, it is also a kind of energy. Since it is energy, it has the value of utilization. "

Shen Yu kept it secret, but in fact, she had already told Chu Yao a lot in her words.

"As far as I know, the main research directions of the Psychic Research Institute include two major aspects. One is the excavation of the heritage of ancient psionic civilization, and the second is the study of extraterritorial psionic civilization. Of course, the ultimate goal is to serve alliance.

No matter what kind of research, it ultimately falls on how to apply it in practice. Therefore, on top of this, various technologies have been extended, including the treatment of psykers, defense against psionic attacks, conversion between psionic energy and various resources... and so on. "

"Heritage of ancient psychic civilization..." Chu Yao muttered this word, which reminded her of the great formation she discovered under the Beishan Mine. "You know so much."

"It's all necessary for work. I don't want to deal with those guys at the institute. Their group of scientific researchers are all neurotic."

"So, including measuring instruments and matrices, they are all the results obtained in this kind of research, right?"

"That's right, and...that's all."

"That's it? Are there no other inventions? For example, a pistol that fires with psychic energy?" Chu Yao was very surprised by this answer.

"There are very complicated reasons... You know about the Immortal War, right? Do you want me to tell you the history of junior high school?" Shen Yu ate duck meat with a smile on his face, and he was quite happily chatting.

"No need, I still know this part."

"Okay. For a long time after the Immortal War, the research on psychic powers was banned by the Alliance, so this part of the research has been discontinued. It is only in the past few hundred years that more psychic powers have been discovered due to outward exploration. Civilization, so the research on them... on you has been brought up again.

The result of the research is that psionics seem to be of little use. "

Chu Yao just wanted to take a sip of water, but almost choked out because of these words.

"What word are you using?" She put down the water glass. "If you don't talk about anything else, aren't you gods interested in immortality?"

Long age and eternal life should be fatal temptations for any race or civilization.

"You asked about the key point. The initial research was indeed centered on 'immortality', but the research did not go well. Your physiological structure seems to be different from ours. Psychic energy can coexist peacefully in your body. When it comes to ordinary people, it becomes highly toxic.”

You guys really just use a syringe filled with spiritual power to poke grass into your body.

"The oppression of psychics in history, the prevailing culture of discrimination against barbarians in society, the blind faith in technology, the huge expenditure on psychic development, the pressure from conservatives in the House of Representatives... In short, under the influence of various factors, this part of the research It’s difficult to make progress. Considering the various problems that ‘immortality’ will bring, research in this field has been turned into a forbidden area.”

When saying these words, Shen Yu was like a bystander, not a pure heavenly being.

"The problems caused by immortality?" Chu Yao had never considered this kind of problem before, and she didn't understand.

"You still don't understand our society well, Miss Chu." Shen Yu smiled, "Let me ask you, if the technology to extend life is realized, which group of people will benefit first? And this is not just ordinary people. Extended, but extended for hundreds of thousands of years."

"...Of course, rich people." Chu Yao thought about it for a while and finally understood.

Wealth, status, power, these things determine that people are inherently unequal. If there is one thing that is equal between rich and poor, it is that everyone only has one life.

And if the equality of life is broken again, it will not be a blessing but a disaster for a civilization like Tianren with hundreds of billions of people.

Unless such technology is popularized to everyone, this is not easy, and even bigger problems may occur after it is popularized.

"Moreover, researchers have discovered that the resource of psychic energy can only be extracted from your psychic beings, and its uses are also very limited. It can be used as a substitute for some energy sources, but there will be some problems during the conversion process. Astonishingly huge losses, for example, the conversion ratio of magic energy to psychic energy seems to be hundreds to one...I have forgotten the specific number."

What is magic energy?

Chu Yao decided to temporarily suppress the questions in his heart and listen to Shen Yu's speech first.

"Psychics cannot be used, and their powers may be too overwhelming, unpredictable and uncontrollable. Even if they are alone, they will be a scourge in society... Don't get excited, I don't mean to target you.

In short, with interstellar colonization, more and more psychic civilizations are discovered, and more and more psychics are captured. These psykers could neither be used effectively nor left unchecked, killing them and wasting bullets... thus the 'refined' technology was born. "

In other words, the technology that destroys cultivation. Chu Yao thought silently in his heart.

"This technology can destroy the abilities of psykers while preserving their long lifespan. In this way, these unplaceable psykers can finally be useful-at least as the most basic labor force. As the technology is refined, was born, and an industrial chain surrounding psykers gradually emerged... You may have experienced it later, so I won't say more."

For example, it is sold to a mine for manual mining, right?

Chu Yao thought of the hard life of mining in the mine with his senior sister.

However, there are still many problems here...

"Since the psychic energy in a psyker cannot be effectively used, where did the matrix and measuring instrument come from?"

Moreover, there is another crucial question...spiritual energy, or the spiritual power in Chu Yao's body, is not innate!

The gods don't know, but the cultivators know very well that all their magic power comes from cultivation.

The source of cultivation can be the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, sunlight and moonlight, spiritual springs and spiritual stones, or the inner elixir of monsters... Even Chu Yao's cultivation was cultivated by the Yin power of heaven and earth. Strictly speaking, these are all energy sources and can be transformed into part of one's own cultivation with the help of exercises.

But Shen Yu just said that psychic energy can only be extracted from psykers?

The Celestial Alliance has colonized so many planets, among other things, hasn’t it discovered any spiritual stone mines?

Even celestial beings can practice cultivation themselves. Lu Xiaoye, who possesses spiritual roots, is an example. And he just mentioned that the "physiological structures" of psykers and celestial beings are different.

There must be some deeper reason for this.

"These two inventions, er, should be said to be discoveries. They were both unearthed from the relics left over from the Dark Ages."

The "dark age" Shen Yu refers to is the period when heavenly beings were oppressed by cultivators.

"I understand, it turns out they are all resting on their laurels." Chu Yao nodded.

"Yes, just resting on our laurels, and doing so in a nondescript manner. So far, there are only a few kinds of psychic technology that can be used. But they are simple and effective."

"Is there anything else besides the miniature matrix and the measuring instrument?"

"There are also large matrices and large gauges."

"..."

Chu Yao was a little speechless, feeling that Shen Yu was lying to him.

"Well, it's really gone. Apart from these two things, the only ones that can be used are the machines and medicines used for refining, but refining also incorporates other technologies. I don't know much about the details.

Then there are the relatively high-end psychic machines... There are only a few types that can be actually used at present.

Psychic research has reached a dead end. The small technologies at the end have been developed to the end. The high-end technologies discovered have no clues and can only be taken over and used directly. Coupled with the Alliance's hostile policy towards long-lived species, many conservative old-timers in the House of Representatives have a negative attitude towards the research of psychic energy, making the development of this type of psychic technology even more difficult. "

Chu Yao thought of something, so he mentioned to Shen Yu the "golden light" and "black mirror" he had encountered.

"Well, these two may be two of those high-end psychic technologies, but I don't know the details. I'm just a liberal arts student." The plate of roast duck in front of Shen Yu has bottomed out.

"Yali Company may have some kind of deal with the scientific research center. This is very common. In order to develop its own business, Interstellar Company always needs powerful weapons technology.

I'm not sure about the golden light you're talking about, but "Black Mirror", I can make some guesses. Can I have another plate of duck? "

"Waiter, another plate of roast duck!" Chu Yao waved to the waiter not far away, "Continue."

"I just said that spiritual energy can be converted into other resources. Although the loss is huge, it can indeed be converted.

As far as I know, most of the starships owned by interstellar companies now use nuclear fusion technology. A new invention from the Psionics Research Institute seems to allow the psychic energy in a psyker's body to expand rapidly in an instant, causing an explosion The spiritual energy reaches the energy level of nuclear fusion in a short period of time..."

Chu Yao's figure froze, a cold air surged from behind, and he shivered unconsciously.

Those monks who fell under the black mirror,

It was used as fuel for the spacecraft.

Just one chapter today...four thousand words

This chapter has been revised over and over again because some things need to be explained clearly and some things need to be hidden hh

In fact, the original intention of writing this book was to tell a relaxing story, but unknowingly the setting became a bit grand.

This is my first book of such a long length. I am still very immature in terms of writing style and rhythm control, and there is still a lot to learn. To all of you who read this, thank you for your likes and for your support of me. tolerate

No matter what, I will finish this book step by step to hone my writing skills.

I’ve also been reading other books recently, such as Addicted to the Weird Immortal WW, and a lot of ideas have come to mind. Maybe the second book will be a whole new chapter of crazy literature (
