Chapter 677 Everyone in the parallel world, please lend me your power!
(5600)
On the platform halfway up the mountain, Ian's figure was still. At the same time, the first gem on the right side of the Star Crown lit up with a turbid blue-red light.
The warm, moist wind mixed with the smell of blood stirred up, forming a scarlet vortex behind him.
A vague sharp claw protruded from it, pressing against the ground silently, as gently as a caress.
But the moment it stepped on the ground, its extremely sharp claws shredded the rocks.
It was a dragon beast whose figure was blurry and whose specific image could not be clearly seen. It had four limbs and two wings, but the wings had turned into claws and became flexible second hands. From a distance, it looked like the six limbs of an insect.
On the dragon's head, the scarlet eyes are like a ball of flickering lights, and the dense teeth are slightly opened and closed, as if it is making a silent roar.
It walked out of the whirlpool and then crawled in front of Ian, extremely docile.
But the pungent smell of blood and the terrifying sense of danger are telling the people around it all the time - this is a beast of war that is born for killing and exists for fighting.
This scene was so terrifying that even Elder Manya subconsciously clenched the stone staff in his hand, and the Heart Light Body Wind-protecting Dragon also surrounded him vigilantly, forming a long wind shield visible to the naked eye.
If the person in front of him was not Ian, he would definitely attack immediately.
"This is?!"
Elder Manya spoke in astonishment. He couldn't be sure for a moment what the strange beast summoned by Ian was - wasn't the other party's inner light body the star crown? How could there be a second form and still be so terrible?
Terrifying, a form completely opposite to the sacred feeling of Star Crown...
In other words, this is some kind of sublimation skill...
As Ian stared at the dragon beast in front of him, his name suddenly appeared in his mind.
【Crystalized Blood Hunter】
[In the Star Seeker swarm, a predatory crystal beast bred from the ‘crystal carpet’. Its mission is to kill all food and obtain enough nutrients for the breeding pool]
[It was originally a basic flying unit based on the green armored lizard, with the addition of the dragon's wings, but the effect was not very satisfactory, so it was transformed into a ground unit, and the effect was excellent. The claw feet were converted from the flying wings of the dragon
Has a powerful force, enough to tear steel]
【……】
A large amount of information emerged in Ian's mind, analyzing in detail the reasons for the formation and transformation methods of the alien beast named 'Blood Hunter'.
This is obviously derived from the data of the 'Star Seeker Swarm' transforming itself.
"Part of the knowledge of the insect swarm's path..."
Ian murmured to himself, and he stretched out his hand to stroke the blood hunter's blurred head.
But the hand passed through.
This is not the real heart light body, but a virtual shadow. Only a small part of the place where the source matter is condensed, that is, where the claws are, has entity, and it is quite fragile.
Ian's caressing action made the entire blood hunter's figure look like a reflection in the water, ripples were stirred and the whole body was distorted.
But even so, the blood hunter shadow did not escape, but obediently prostrated on the spot.
A feeling of spiritual interconnection arises spontaneously.
——This is the ‘Insect Swarm Mind Network’, which was sent as supporting facilities.
Although the young man didn't have many expressions on the surface, there were already ripples in his heart: "What's going on - even if the prophet can predict and screen wrong choices through the quality of experimental results and save time, he can't directly do so.
Is it as good as sending papers to me now?"
"And this is no longer the 'me in the future', but the me in another world line..."
"No, it would be better to say...can precognitive vision really be regarded as a normal 'prophet ability'?"
"Yes! This is obviously some kind of ability to communicate with parallel worlds!"
When Ian thought of this, a door that had been closed for a long time seemed to open in his heart - yes, if you think about it carefully, is precognitive vision really the ability to predict the future after the timeline?
Let’s not talk about how it is done. Just judging from the fact that the predictive vision can feed back various ‘results’ in almost real time, this is not particularly ‘prophetic’.
Most of the prophet's predictions are riddles, or some indirect signs, because the future is uncertain, and even if you see a corner, you cannot be completely sure.
But what if the precognitive horizon simply observed the consequences of Ian's choices in the parallel world, and then fed back the good or bad...
Maybe it's more reasonable?
It is not the observation of Ian itself, but the result. It can not only circumvent the law that prophets cannot predict themselves, but also conform to the real-time feedback ability of predictive horizon.
The reason why the precognitive horizon has a prediction time limit is precisely because the progress of Ian in those parallel worlds is not much faster than the current Ian.
No matter how far it is, limited by Ian's personal ability, the precognitive horizon cannot be seen, and there is no parallel world that meets the conditions to observe.
Of course, there are still many things that don't make sense here, such as how psychic energy communicates with parallel worlds...but these are all minor issues.
Maybe spiritual energy itself is a force that exists in the entire parallel time and space at the same time? The same may be true for the sefirah.
In short, the most critical point is the road.
The road is obviously a complete world line and has developed very long, but it is completely inconsistent with Ian's current time. They are obviously not in the same frequency band.
Therefore, compared with the 'near future' that Ian usually sees through his precognitive vision and is based on his current situation, [the path] can only be glimpsed in special areas and special circumstances through some kind of cause and effect.
But now, with the power of the Guiding Star, this connection is strengthened.
Moreover, the choices Ian made along the way were obviously not based on the current Ian himself, but on another origin, a possibility that developed under different circumstances very early on.
The precognitive vision has seen these 'futures', but in essence, it has only seen some parallel worlds that develop relatively quickly.
This is also a way of predicting the future.
Ian doesn't know how many parallel worlds there are, but there is a high probability that they are 'infinite'... In infinity, there will definitely be a world line that is almost the same as his current one, and the precognitive horizon predicts this world line and Ian makes decisions
The choice provides a 'foreshadowing' for Ian now.
Even Ian in other parallel worlds are using what Ian does today as a 'foreshadowing'.
Such chaotic and intertwined choices are intertwined, achieving the result that "the prophet cannot be directly predicted".
After all, even Ian can only use other people as a glimpse into his future and get a foretelling.
Perhaps, there are many prophets who see not the future, but a parallel world where time progresses faster, just like Ian, but this cannot be determined.
Except for the Moment's Skull, Ian has not seen any other living prophets, and he doesn't know what the other person's situation is.
Even his current guesses are not all, and they cannot be regarded as correct...but they can at least explain the ability brought by his current "Guiding Star".
After Ian used the original ether to activate a warm gem of the 'Guiding Star', he felt a hazy resonance - and then a vortex appeared, and the phantom of the Blood Hunter appeared.
He briefly communicated with a certain Ian from the 'Insect Swarm World Line' and obtained information about the blood hunters.
It feels like a lottery. Before the lottery, you have no idea what the result will be and what you will gain.
But the one who is preparing for the prize is not anyone else, but himself.
Myself in a parallel world.
"...The speed is slower, and the overall body is relatively fragile. The strength is an advantage, but it is not as good as the first-level sublimated person who has strengthened the physical aspect."
Ian read the blood hunter information, and he was thinking about building a model. He didn't think it was a very powerful creature: "To put it bluntly, it is the basic unit in the insect swarm, right? There is no follow-up path for advancement, and it is probably just developed.
Come out, even if it is made into a potion, there will be no advantage."
"The value lies in the information on how to make this kind of war beast. This kind of biological experimental data is very useful and can help me create a new bloodline true form in the future."
"Also, the supporting 'Insect Swarm Mind Network' is very useful! Although the Death Lord series already has a similar Death Lord consciousness, the insect swarm's mental network is obviously more direct than the Death Lord. This can make Adalbert
Go improve and study it, it will definitely be of great use in artificial souls!"
"Furthermore, if I can summon some relatively powerful insect swarm individuals, they may be able to serve as a disguise for my real 'Heart Light Body'... But the form must be suitable."
The power of the Guiding Star, the heart-light body, is exactly what its name suggests.
Ian will get guidance from himself in other world lines, and he also needs to guide himself in other world lines.
Among the stars, they are stars to each other.
Gravity and light connect them together, running through time and space.
At this moment, Ian felt that as a price for extracting knowledge from the insect swarm world line, he had to pay in exchange.
It doesn’t need to be much, but it must be helpful.
Otherwise, this mutual 'guidance' relationship will no longer exist, and the power of the mind-light body will also be weakened.
In fact, there is no need for such restrictions at all.
Because Ian, who can awaken this kind of mind-light body...how should I put it?
——He is indeed better as a teacher.
Even if it is another world line, the insect swarm of myself, the same is true.
"Ian? What is this?"
At this moment, after realizing that the blood hunters summoned by Ian did not have any desire to attack, Elder Manya took down his defense.
He tried to ask Ian about the situation: "Isn't this your mind-light body? Is it some kind of...creation that you created?"
Creation is not a novel concept. The giant statue that Chief Zhenzhou created with his own sesame and mudstone is a pure creation of sesame.
"Huh? Yes. It's a creation."
Ian came back to his senses. He looked at the blood hunter who had gradually faded and was about to disappear. He couldn't help but smile: "You also know...my psychic power is some kind of observation psychic power. As long as I observe and dissect in detail,
After passing through the monsters, I can extract part of their power to form a temporary creation."
"But at present, it is still unable to be molded into a stable creation..."
"That's it." Elder Manya has no doubt that he is there. Similar mind-light bodies have appeared before. At most, it is a bit strange that Ian can obtain the ability to create objects through the psychic power of observation, but it is not a big deal.
He even comforted Ian: "Don't worry, in the final analysis, you have not really reached the third energy level, and it is normal for creation to be fragile."
Ian certainly isn't worried.
At this moment, he was thinking about what "guidance" he should give to the insect swarm on the opposite side.
This insect swarm is not the original insect swarm that Ian saw when he first glimpsed the road - the timeline of the original insect swarm has reached almost the end. This time the insect swarm that responds to Ian's inner light body has a high probability.
That is around the third energy level.
In other words, it is still in the incubation period and is most likely conducting biological experiments in the underground ecosystem of the South China Sea Labyrinth.
Blood Hunters are the initial result of biological experiments. They are ground combat units created in conjunction with the Crystal Carpet. They are also the only thing that this insect swarm that has not yet developed for a long time can take advantage of.
"So...just right." Ian said to himself excitedly.
The insect swarm at this point in time was just right for experimentation. He had thought about it before, but did not have the conditions to practice it!
Of course, no matter what the guidance is, Ian is helping the other party invade the world of Terra.
But Ian didn't care about this - he didn't feel even the slightest bit uneasy in his heart.
It's a parallel world anyway, just for experiments.
Therefore, Ian directly sent a copy of relevant ideas and information about the 'artificial soul' to the insect swarm on the opposite side.
Adelbert has started related research a few days ago, but has not yet created a physical object, but Ian has already learned this knowledge from the other party.
Now it happens to be used as a guide to enlighten the star seeker swarm on the other side.
But just as the 'Blood Hunter' given by the insect swarm itself is of no use at all, on the contrary, the biological experiment information and the attached 'Insect Swarm Mind Network' are very useful.
The important thing about artificial souls is not the technology itself, but the ideas provided by Ian.
[There is no need to use the resources of a corner of the South China Sea to develop forces and farm to fight against the entire world... You must not know how deep the water behind Terra is now. It is impossible for the insect swarm to defeat these fifth energy levels in a pure head-on confrontation.
】
[Latent, assimilation, secret development, don't fight... don't develop insect swarms to expand the number, but try to integrate into humans, let us become humans, let humans become us]
[Select a group of human beings with potential, give them souls, hide behind them, conduct experiments, and spread influence]
[Absorb those who are desperate for human society, such as the refugees in the Western Region, or the adventurers who explore the maze, select the smart and talented ones, and help them become sublimators, excellent technicians, scientific researchers, or
He is an excellent and famous adventurer and has become our cornerstone]
[Subtly change their thinking patterns and assimilate them into our thinking network]
[Establish a secret organization, or a sect, to hide our identity... Those special humans who can accept us will treat them as 'priests' with special abilities and precepts to the outside world... Terra is very
Big, we won’t be suspected]
[Give up direct confrontation, give up direct brainwashing and parasitism, give up any seemingly straightforward and extremely efficient 'shortcuts'... We develop steadily, use 'soul' as the subject, and grow among humans]
This was the conclusion that Ian came to after reflection after seeing the Insect's Nest Dream.
At that time, I had not seen the Imperial City, and I did not know how powerful the fifth energy level was, nor how strong the prediction ability of the Huaiguang Church was. Therefore, relying on my short knowledge in Nanling, I developed it after six years.
They immediately attacked - and sure enough, they were defeated by the coalition forces.
This is the mistake made by being too young.
If he had known this key information from the beginning, Ian would never have done this, but would have adopted this more cautious and gentle approach.
As for whether this method is effective...
Isn't Ian doing an experiment?
A laboratory as big as a parallel world is just right to conduct some large-scale social and species invasion experiments to enrich the database!
Crossing the river by feeling your own way belongs to yes.
And, it's not just that.
——As long as he maintains contact, the next time he gives guidance, the one who responds will still be this swarm world line.
Ian thinks that he might be able to borrow the technology of 'Insect Swarm Optimized Artificial Soul' from the other party?
——Really? It’s not impossible!
As Ian who vowed to use all of Terra's skills for free, even his own self in the parallel world would not let him go!
"The ability of the Guiding Star... is indeed very powerful. It's just like my precognitive vision, it cannot give direct combat effectiveness and needs to be developed slowly!"
After sending the relevant information, Ian felt refreshed - the next thing to do is to wait until he has the results in the parallel world, and then just recycle them!
This kind of on-hook scientific research and free prostitution technology can actually happen to him. It is really worthy of his spiritual power!
Afterwards, Ian tried to activate the 'Path of Spiritual Disaster'.
The result was no response.
Ian could sense that the lack of response from the spiritual disaster path was not because he had not reached the third energy level... but because the hard conditions were not enough.
"There are not enough people guided by me..."
Ian murmured to himself.
He realized that the reason why he was able to summon the 'Blood Hunter' was not only because of the primitive ether he had condensed, but also because of the mountain people of the Avod tribe.
Ian raised his head and looked towards the direction of the mountain people celebrating the rekindling of the sacrificial fire on the Holy Mountain. He thought deeply in his heart: "So, if you want to activate the ability of the Guiding Star, you need enough people to be guided in the direction by me."
, people who are willing to believe in me."
"Because of the Holy Mountain, these mountain people are willing to believe in me and be guided by me, so they can support my mind, light, and body to connect with the insect swarm... But that's it. I want to connect with the insect swarm while also connecting with the insect swarm."
China Unicom Spiritual Disaster requires more and more people to believe in me."
The beliefs that people who are guided by Ian can be used by his light body to condense a special spiritual energy and transform it into a 'communication channel' that connects parallel worlds.
However, there are relatively few people who can provide strong beliefs, and ordinary people can only rely on quantity.
Ian can also give up communicating with the insect swarm and instead communicate with the spiritual disaster... But in that case, he will hang up and do scientific research, and his progress in science and technology will be interrupted. Next time, he will want to contact the target from countless parallel worlds.
The swarm of insects that I guided...
That's not to say it's impossible, but generally speaking it depends on fate.
If you want to connect the insect swarms and spiritual disasters at the same time, just one Avod tribe is not enough, or even Xiahui Territory is not enough - Ian also needs to expand the population of the territory, develop more people, and let more
People believe in themselves and are guided by themselves.
"Interesting, it's almost like the dead king, but it's a healthier model of gathering the power of everyone."
"Perhaps I, who is on the spiritual disaster path, got inspiration from this aspect, so I developed the subsequent spiritual god belief system."
As for the path of the insect swarm... the heart light body of the insect swarm should not be the guiding star.
In fact, even Ian, who is on the spiritual disaster path, may not be the guiding star, but he is also a mind-light body developed from the precognitive vision. It is not surprising that the functions are similar.
It can even be said that Ian's guiding star may be a platform to connect himself with many parallel worlds?
Thinking of this, Ian raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Is this the power of the Heart Light Body... It's simply incredible."
"I'm really curious about what kind of power the other prophets' mental bodies have."
Ian took back the Guiding Star - just like Elder Manya, even if he had the ancient dragon core and the celestial crystal to provide energy, based on his foundation, he could not maintain his heart light body for too long.
The shadow of the Blood Hunter also completely disintegrated, turning into a scarlet stream of light and returning to the gem of the Star Crown.
In the future, Ian can also summon it by paying the original ether.
Elder Manya went to rest, and Ian also went to rest and wait for the arrival of the Mountain King.
Time flew by, and Ian, who was resting, felt something in his heart. He sensed a strange spiritual energy wave coming from afar, and it seemed that he was communicating with himself.
[Please wait a moment, you will be there soon]
It was a soft female voice, the voice of the King of the Mountain.
The king of the mountain is coming.
However, it was different from the majestic dragon that Ian had seen before.
This time when he came to the Avod tribe, what came to Ian was a gentle and beautiful woman.
It’s my birthday today! Try to eat something good~
