Him and their stars

Yu Lian dared to assure Teacher Li, whom he admired most, that he really didn't like psychic powers.

Yu Lian believes that there are three main reasons for completely distorting the technological tree of known civilizations in the entire galaxy and even the entire universe. One of them is the so-called psychic ability. Of course, some people call it Yuan Neng, some people call it the Force, and some people call it Nether Energy. Anyway, that's about it.

Compared with the "scientific" explanation, this is a mysterious energy factor that is mysterious and mysterious. It is spread in every corner of the universe but cannot be captured by instruments. Gifted individuals can use their existence to strengthen themselves, communicate with their spiritual consciousness, tear apart the heaven and earth, and traverse the galaxy, just like the omnipotent gods in classical legends.

Because of the existence of this group of extraordinary beings, the state of civilization in the entire universe is a bit confusing. Fatalism, animism, and even lineage theory are prevalent in the world. It is not materialistic at all, not scientific at all, not logical at all, and not progressive at all.

After all, there really are individuals in this world who can blow up space battleships with bare hands! Everyone's confusion is understandable.

When Yu Lian first crossed over in his previous life, he thought he had arrived in the future era of the universe, and thought that he might become an "illiterate primitive". For a while, he suffered a great cultural shock, but soon he Found that was not the case at all.

Before the 15th century, the history of the earth was the same as he knew it, but then changes occurred with the arrival of visitors from outer space.

When the space exploration ships of the Empire and the Alliance arrived in the solar system at almost the same time, they discovered that there were individuals almost identical to them in a corner of the galaxy. They were all very happy and arrived in this place in an almost ecstatic and rough manner. A remote blue planet on the third cantilever of the Milky Way.

Those times were so good! The discovery of "kindred spirits" in the vast sea of ​​stars is simply a miraculous workmanship of the spirit of the universe. The Empire’s Star Viewers and the Alliance’s Academicians of the Academy of Sciences lingered in the Forbidden City and the Holy Palace, marveling at the primitive but splendid civilization; the Astral Knights and Guerrillas raised their glasses and sang while overlooking the Sphinx and the Leshan Giant Buddha. , and also invited the people on earth who bowed to them to join their banquet.

The people on Earth, who were just about to enter the Age of Discovery, had not yet had time to explore the planet beneath their feet, and were thus led on a path of no return where technology and civilization trees were completely crooked.

Then, the subsequent historical process that Yu Lian was familiar with ceased to exist.

Yes, although this is also "Earth", it is not Yu Lian's hometown.

Yu Lian, who came from the materialistic earth world, was very angry. For a while, he felt that the so-called psychics were the culprits for the complete disappearance of the history and beliefs he was familiar with! He felt that except for himself, the entire galaxy was a hopeless idealistic fool.

Isn’t it nice to have a scientific worldview with strict logic and clear logic? The so-called spiritual energy, the so-called opening of Lao Shizi's "star ring in the spiritual universe", don't they all sound like metaphysics?

I, Yu Lian, a good young man who has received twenty years of materialistic worldview education, will never become a materialistic fool even if I am beaten to death by psychic ripples and die in a black hole!

Perhaps this kind of entanglement made his spirit a little more divided than ordinary people, so he activated his star ring in a confused manner.

Then, it smells so good...

Yu Lian quickly comforted himself that the so-called materialism means that existence is reasonable, and the reason why it cannot be classified using rigorous scientific models. It's just because the scientific level hasn't reached that point yet.

After all, we cannot be a fundamentalist metaphysical pseudo-materialist! This will be criticized by Teacher Li.

So, psychic energy is really delicious!

Very logical! Very materialistic! Nothing wrong!

Of course, none of the above is the point.

Let’s go back to psychic powers.

This kind of extraordinary power, which almost represents the most powerful and mysterious power in the universe, will only awaken in gifted natural life forms. The method of awakening varies from person to person and there is indeed no authoritative teaching material. However, once awakened, no matter which path of cultivation one embarks on, the power of one's soul and body will enter the extraordinary realm.

This can also explain why the support team of the 12th Military Station was attacked by the insect swarm. For the insect swarm that sets the evolution of the entire population as its ultimate goal, what is more fragrant than the genes of the awakened ones?

Except for the queen who fought several times with Yu Lian in her previous life, no one with psychic abilities was born in the entire trillions of insect swarms. In later generations, many people speculated that the insect swarm It was not a natural birth, but a biological weapon created by a certain force. Unfortunately, it got out of control, and it became a natural disaster that plagued all civilizations in the galaxy.

However, the more something does not exist, the more necessary it is to prove its existence. The more unavailable it is, the more we need it.

In later generations, the elite of the Swarm tirelessly hunted psykers across the universe, as evidenced by this.

Ina Shinika, later known as "The Witch of the Burning Eyes", the most famous sniper in the galaxy, the heroine of the Blue Star Community, one of the symbols of unyielding resistance in the hearts of the people on earth, is a powerful psychic By.

Of course, at the age of twenty-three, she has not yet awakened, and is at best considered a sensitive person.

Sensitive or not, currently in the entire galaxy, only the Empire's Star Knights, the Alliance's Star Rangers Association, and the transcendent Ethereal Temple have very metaphysical detection methods; but Yu Lian knows that there should be bugs as well. .

To the Zerg, the genetic information of a sensitive person who has not yet awakened may be more valuable than the awakened one.

The currently developing insect swarm does not yet have the strength to attack large cities and the mainland of the galaxy, but as long as there is an opportunity, of course it will not let go of its targets in the wild.

Yu Lian was still a little confused. In his previous life, he had not heard about the attack from Ina, but the subsequent siege of Tulon Port was when she first appeared on the stage of history.

However, if I had not been reborn, wouldn't the "Shagugan Witch" have died at that time?

In addition, he carefully searched the memories of his previous life again and determined that there were no traces of the insect swarm in the entire Tulong Port incident. The first official record of the swarm actually appeared several years later.

In other words, the swarm of insects was not prepared to appear in the first place, but because of my rebirth, they changed their original purpose and appeared in advance?

Well, to the insect swarm, the only thing more valuable than the genes of one sensitive person is, of course, two.

In other words, I have already begun to change history?

Uh... Even though I said that, in the final analysis it was just Yu Lian's guess. Since there was no basis, he could only keep these doubts in his heart for the time being.

In short, let’s return the perspective to reality. Yu Lian believed that even if his rebirth and possession really caused a butterfly effect, the insect swarm would probably not appear again for a while. Their current policy is to develop obscenely, and they dare not be exposed to the sight of major civilizations until they form a large scale. Therefore, the closer everyone is to the battlefield of Tulong, the safer they will be.

While thinking about it, Yu Lian said casually: "Well, I have to ask what the experience of psychic energy is... In addition to being much more physically energetic and energetic than before, it's probably because of the stronger sensitivity. However, this also varies from person to person. Yes. Every awakened individual has a different understanding. Some people don’t know where they heard some nonsense, insisting that they have been guided by the spirit of the universe, pretending to be magic, doing magic tricks, and talking nonsense. There are a lot of theories full of loopholes, but in the end, there are always dignitaries who regard him as a spiritual leader. So, don't think that becoming an awakened person is necessarily a good thing. If the will cannot control power, then it will become a slave of power."

Most of the people had expressions like "I don't understand what you said, but you are really awesome." The old mechanic was the only one who was so frightened that he trembled. He looked around subconsciously, and then said helplessly: " Well, sir, I’m going to say this here, but I can’t say it at home! Especially in front of the public.”

"Uh...what did I say?"

"The All Souls Unity Church still has the support of quite a few big figures, and there are also many fanatical believers. If you can't hide your words, it will only affect your future, but there will really be fanatics who will attack you. I used to know someone Reporter…hey, forget it.”

"Oh, are you talking about the one created by Master Wang? I swear to the spirit of the universe, I have no reflection."

Yes, this is not a reflection, it is almost equivalent to pointing directly at the nose and scolding.

Ina probably didn't want to continue this topic, so she interrupted: "So, how do you feel about those earth-burrowing insects? Some kind of psychic skill?"

You actually still remember this? Yu Lian silently rolled his eyes in his heart, and then said seriously: "This is the same as catching woodchucks in our hometown. Open your hands and press them on the ground, and feel the subtle vibrations on the ground. As long as it is moving, there will be The vibration must also have a specific rhythm. One, two, three, it means approaching, one, two, three, four, it means preparing to attack. The interval of five to six means that it is less than two meters away from you. Seven to eight , three meters. Nine to ten, five meters. Each finger joint corresponds to the target direction. For example, the first joint of the middle finger is the three o'clock direction."

Everyone was in awe, either still unaware of the seriousness or not, but Ina was still full of suspicion: "Is this serious nonsense?"

The hunters on the Green Garden Star really catch the silver-whiskered rats like this, but there are a few small differences in the details. And isn't this less scientific than psychic ability?

"Okay, let's talk nonsense. When I was in the academy, I also carefully read the early inspection report of the scientific expedition team on the New Jade Gate. I think there should be a civilization left by the enlightened people here."

"Enlightened One?" Youyou looked confused.

"...I don't want to start over at popular science and go back to middle school for another two years. In short, the disappeared enlightened people have left civilizational legacies all over the universe, waiting for future generations to develop. This is not a secret. The reason why I am willing to come I served here because I wanted to see what was going on. Then, when I woke up, I did have an inexplicable impulse that led me to come here. Perhaps, this is the spirit of the universe and the ancient ancestors. Give me enlightenment. I thought, we have to retreat anyway. Since there is a great possibility of encountering the enemy on the front, we might as well try our luck in the mountains to the north. If there are really relics of enlightened beings, they are It can help us escape. And this is exactly the case... Psychics, you really have to trust your own consciousness!"
