Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 940 - 272: Wu An’s Movements, Mind Breaking Entity_3

Although there’s no time to convert it for solo piloting, if it’s just a frigate-level ship, Chen Ming can handle it alone.

After settling the final payment with the port maintenance team, Chen Ming’s footsteps suddenly paused, then he turned and walked towards the ship.

Just now, he felt someone watching him, though there was no danger.

Could be someone from the government.

Chen Ming wasn’t sure; the efficiency seems a bit exaggerated.

Although he deliberately left traces, he was somewhat surprised by how quickly the government caught up.

He needs to leave; if really blocked by the government, there’d be too many issues to deal with.

Chen Ming boarded the ship and soon disappeared from this colony.

After observing through the sensors for a while, and confirming no ships were tracking him.

Chen Ming set the ship to auto-cruise, picked up the terminal, found the boss’s communication code, and dialed it.

During the past two days, he was continually absorbing the abilities from Chaos Origin.

The problem from two days ago hasn’t been resolved yet.

That Totem Pole is likely what the boss mentioned before, a consequence arising from a Psychic using multiple different types of spiritual materials to create weapon armor at the same time.

This issue is most appropriately asked to the boss.

Wu An, just handling reports sent by subordinates, was suddenly interrupted by a call.

Hu Yi, preparing plans as per Wu An’s arrangement, immediately leaned over to ask, "Who’s calling?"

"Xiaoming."

"..."

Wu An ignored Hu Yi and answered the call: "Hello."

Chen Ming’s voice came from the terminal: "Boss, I recently picked up another Spiritual Stone, its nature is Obsession."

"I want to ask if putting these two completely different natured Spiritual Stones together will cause issues; you previously mentioned mixing different natured spiritual materials would cause problems, what about Spiritual Stones?"

The boss’s expression subtly changed, saying: "You did right to ask me immediately, it indeed might cause issues."

"Spiritual Stones are extremely intense in their nature, even more so than various spiritual materials; when such extreme emotions are combined, it will undoubtedly be more dangerous."

"The original Spiritual Stone you have is at least two levels higher than Obsession, there’s no need to use the new one if the old one suffices."

"Use Silent Alloy to isolate the new Spiritual Stone, or transfer it elsewhere."

"Understood."

Chen Ming responded and continued, "Then what exactly happens if different natured spiritual materials are combined?"

The boss didn’t answer directly, instead said: "I remember you asked last time; this involves some specialized nature of Spiritual Energy, you haven’t encountered much yet, it’s unnecessary to prematurely discuss."

"Does it become some kind of special Spiritual Creature?"

"Hmm?"

The boss straightened up on the sofa, asking: "You’ve already encountered it?"

"Uh, you could say that..."

Chen Ming’s words led the boss to subconsciously envision Chen Ming encountering such a special creature outside the Imperial Domain’s Dusk.

After all, everyone believes Chen Ming is stationed at the Fourteenth Legion’s branch, and such occurrences there are unlikely.

Given this, the boss decided not to hold back anymore.

"Let me just tell you directly."

"Multiple different natured spiritual materials, including Spiritual Stones, when mixed in one person, will actively compete for the user’s spiritual energy fluctuations."

"The Psychic’s body becomes the battlefield for mutual attacks, with the primary attack target being the brain."

"Though a Psychic’s brain is damaged, the Enlightenment Nerve doesn’t directly die; it joins the competition for control."

"Interconnected, intertwined, different spiritual energy fluctuations and natures gradually fuse, eventually forming a monster."

"These monsters are collectively known as Mind Breaking Entities."

"Each Mind Breaking Entity is unique, possessing characteristics based on the spiritual materials that triggered the mind break."

"Moreover, every Mind Breaking Entity has one common ability: transforming more spiritual energy traits into its abilities by consuming them."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ming thoroughly understood the situation at the Space Station.

The Void Spirit Ability User originally responsible for research on the Space Station possessed a Spiritual Weapon or equipment with an Heartless trait, which closely matched the Obsession Spiritual Stone.

However, in the laboratory, there were those Spirit Beasts created due to Obsession Spiritual Stone.

This Psychic’s long-term contact with Spirit Beasts resulted in multiple spiritual traits clashing in his brain, ultimately killing him.

His Enlightenment Nerve, Heartless, and Obsession traits merged, forming the totem pole-shaped Mind Breaking Entity.

Chen Ming processed a bit and asked: "Is there a specific way to handle these entities?"

"Method to deal with them? Best is using sufficient weapon firepower; the Mind Breaking Entity’s trait of absorbing spiritual energy fluctuations is too troublesome, avoid using Psychics if possible."

"However, what I can tell you is mostly my experience; you can use it for reference. For systematic methods to counter Mind Breaking Entities, consult with more specialized individuals."

"Simply put, one sentence: suppress it early, don’t give it the chance to absorb spiritual energy fluctuations."
