  Chapter 677 Everyone in the parallel world, lend me your strength! (5600)

  On the platform in the middle of the mountain, Ian's figure was still. At the same time, the first gemstone on the right side of the Star Crown glowed with a blue-red turbid light.

  Warm and humid, a **** wind blew up, forming a scarlet vortex behind him.

  An indistinct sharp claw protruded from it, pressing down on the ground silently, as soft as a caress.

  But the moment it stepped on the ground, its extremely sharp claws shredded the rock.

  It was a dragon beast whose figure was blurred and whose specific image could not be seen clearly. It had four limbs and two wings, but the two wings degenerated into claws and became flexible second hands. Looking from a distance, it looked like the six limbs of a worm.

  On the dragon's head, the scarlet eyes were like flickering lights, and the densely packed teeth opened and closed slightly, as if they were roaring silently.

  It walked out of the vortex, and then crawled in front of Ian, extremely docile.

  But the pungent smell of blood and the terrifying sense of danger inform the surrounding people all the time—this is a beast of war born for killing and for fighting.

  This scene was so terrifying that even Elder Manya subconsciously clenched the stone staff in his hand, and the wind-shielding dragon of mind light and body vigilantly surrounded him, forming a long wind shield visible to the naked eye.

  If it wasn't Ian who was in front of him, he would definitely attack immediately.

"This is?!"

  Elder Manya said in astonishment, he couldn't be sure what the strange beast Ian summoned was for a while—isn't the other party's heart light body the star crown? How can there be a second form, which is still so terrifying, a form that is completely opposite to the sacredness of the Star Crown...

   Or in other words, this is some kind of sublimation technique...

   While Ian stared at the dragon beast in front of him, the name of the other party suddenly appeared in his heart.

  【Crystalized Blood Hunter】

  【Among the swarms of star seekers, predatory crystal beasts bred from the 'crystal carpet'. Its mission is to kill all food and obtain enough nutrients for the cultivation pool]

[Originally, it was a basic flying unit bred from the blue-armored lizard with the additional wings of a dragon, but the effect was not satisfactory, so it was transformed into a ground unit with excellent results. The winged claw feet converted from the flying wings of a dragon Has a powerful force, enough to tear steel]

  【…】

  A large volume 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 "star-finding swarm" of their own data.

   "Part of the knowledge of the path of the swarm..."

  Ian muttered to himself, he reached out and stroked the blurred head of the blood hunter.

   But the hand went through.

   This is not the real heart light body, but a phantom. Only the place where a small amount of source matter is condensed, that is, the place where the sharp claws have an entity, and it is quite fragile.

  Ian's stroking action made the entire blood hunter's figure resemble a reflection in water, being stirred and rippled, and completely distorted.

   But even so, the phantom of the blood hunter did not escape, but crawled obediently on the spot.

  A feeling of spiritual interconnectedness arises spontaneously.

  —This is the 'Bug Swarm Mind Network', sent together as supporting facilities.

Although the young man didn't have much expression on the surface, ripples already appeared in his heart: "What's going on—even if the prophet can predict and screen the wrong choices through the quality of the experimental results and save time, it's not enough to directly give I’m at the point where I’m publishing a thesis now, right?”

   "And this is no longer the 'future me', but the me of another worldline..."

   "No, it's better to say... the vision of foreseeing, can it really be regarded as a normal "prophetic ability"?"

   "Yes! This is obviously some kind of ability to communicate with parallel worlds!"

  Ian thought of this, as if a long-hidden door opened in his heart—yes, think about it carefully, is the predictive horizon really the ability to predict the future after the timeline?

  Let’s not talk about how to do it, just judging from the fact that the vision horizon can almost feed back various ‘results’ in real time, this is not a special ‘prophet’.

  Prophet's predictions are mostly riddles, or some indirect signs, because the future is uncertain, even if you see a corner, you can't be completely sure.

  But what if, the precognitive vision simply observes the results of choosing Ian in the parallel world, and then gives back good or bad...

   Maybe it is more reasonable?

   It is not the observation of Ian itself, but the result, which can not only avoid the law that the prophet cannot predict himself, but also conform to the real-time feedback ability of the predictive horizon.

  The reason why the predictive 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 away, limited by Ian's personal ability, he can't see the vision horizon, and he can't find a parallel world that meets the conditions to observe.

  Of course, there are actually many things that don't make sense here, such as how the psionic energy communicates with the parallel world...but these are small problems.

   Maybe psionic energy itself is a power that exists in the entire parallel time and space at the same time? The same may be true of source quality.

  In short, the most critical point lies in the way.

   Daotu is obviously a complete world line, and it has developed very long, but it is completely out of line with Ian's current time. They are obviously not in the same frequency band.

  So, compared with the "near future" that Ian usually sees through the foresight vision and is based on his current situation, [Tao Dao] can only glimpse a corner by virtue of some cause and effect in special areas and special circumstances.

   But now, with the power of the 'Guiding Star', this connection has been strengthened.

  Moreover, the choice Ian made on the road is obviously not based on the current Ian himself, but the possibility of another origin, which has been developed in a different situation since a long time ago.

  The vision of foreknowledge has seen these 'futures', but in essence, it has only seen some parallel worlds with relatively fast development.

   This is also a kind of predicting the future.

Ian doesn't know how many parallel worlds there are, but the high probability is 'infinity'...in infinity, there will definitely be a world line that is almost the same as him today, and the precognitive vision made by Ian by predicting this world line Choose to provide 'premonition' for the current Ian.

  Even, Ian in other parallel worlds is also using what Ian is doing today to carry out "prediction".

   Such chaotic and intertwined choices are intertwined to achieve the result of 'the prophet cannot be directly predicted'.

   After all, even Ian can only use other people as a side to see his future and get a foreshadowing.

  Perhaps, there are also many prophets who see not the future, but a parallel world with faster time progress, just like Ian, but this cannot be determined.

  Ian has never seen other living prophets except for the momentary head, and he doesn't know what the other party is like.

   Even, his current guesses are not all, and cannot be regarded as correct... But at least it can explain the ability brought by his current mind light body "Guiding Star".

  After Ian used the original ether to activate a warm gem in the 'Guiding Star', he felt a hazy resonance—then, a vortex appeared, and the phantom of the blood hunter manifested.

  He randomly communicated briefly with a certain Ian from the "Swarm World Line" and got information about the blood hunter.

  It feels like a lottery draw. Before the lottery draw, you don't know what the result will be and what you will gain.

  However, the candidate for the award is not someone else, but himself.

  Myself in the parallel world.

   "...The speed is relatively slow, and the overall body is relatively fragile. Strength is considered an advantage, but it is not as good as the first-level sublimation with a strengthened body."

Ian read the information on the blood hunter, and he thought about building the model in his mind, but he didn't think it was a very powerful creature: "To put it bluntly, it is the basic unit in the swarm, right? There is no follow-up path to advancement, and it is probably just developed Come out, even if it is made into a potion, there is no advantage."

   "The value lies in the information on how to make this kind of beast. This kind of biological experiment information is very useful and can help me create a new bloodline true form in the future."

"Also, the supporting 'Bug Swarm Mind Network' is very useful! Although the Lord of Death already has a similar awareness of Lord of Death, the mind network of the Swarm is obviously more direct than that of Lord of Death, which can make Adbert Go improve and research it, it will definitely be of great use in man-made souls!"

   "Also, if I can summon some relatively powerful individuals of the swarm, maybe they can be used as a disguise for my real "mind light body"...but the shape must be suitable."

  The ability of the guiding star, the heart light body, is as its name suggests.

  Ian will be guided by other world lines himself, and he also needs to guide himself in other world lines.

  The stars are each other's stars.

  Gravity and light tie them together, through space and time.

  At this moment, Ian felt that as the price for extracting knowledge from the world line of the swarm, he had to pay in exchange.

   It doesn't take much, but it does help.

   Otherwise, this mutual 'guidance' relationship will no longer exist, and the power of the mind light body will also be weakened.

   Actually, there is no need for this restriction at all.

  Because Ian who can awaken this kind of mind light body...how should I put it?

  —He is indeed a better teacher.

  Even if it is another world line, the swarmed self is the same.

   "Ian? What is this...?"

  At this moment, after realizing that the blood hunter summoned by Ian did not have any desire to attack, Elder Manya withdrew his defense.

  He tried to ask Ian about the situation: "Isn't this your heart light body? Is it some kind of...creation you shaped?"

   Creation is not a novel concept. The colossus that Chief Zhenzhou molded out of his own source quality and mudstone is a pure source quality creation.

   "Huh? Yes. Creation."

Ian came back to his senses, looked at the blood hunter who had gradually faded and was about to disappear, and couldn't help smiling: "You also know...my psychic power is a kind of observation psychic power, as long as I observe in detail and dissect it I can extract part of their power to form a temporary creation."

   "However, at present, it cannot be shaped into a stable creation..."

   "That's it." Elder Man Ya has no doubts about him, and it is not uncommon for similar mental bodies to appear. At most, it is a bit strange that Ian obtained the creation ability with the psionic power of the observation department, but it is not a big deal.

  He even comforted Ian: "Don't worry, in the final analysis, you haven't really reached the third energy level yet, and it's normal for creations to be a little fragile."

  Ian is certainly not worried.

  At this moment, he was thinking about what 'guidance' he should send to the swarmed self on the opposite side.

This swarm is not the original swarm that Ian saw when he glimpsed the way—the timeline of the original swarm has come to the end, and the swarm that responds to Ian’s heart light body this time has a high probability It is around the third energy level.

   In other words, it is still in the incubation period, and there is a high probability that it is conducting biological experiments in the underground ecosystem of the South China Sea Labyrinth.

  The blood hunter is the initial result of the biological experiment. The ground combat unit born with the crystal carpet is also the only thing that this swarm that has not developed for a long time can produce.

   "So... just right." Ian said to himself with some excitement.

   The insect swarm at this time point was just used for experimentation. He had thought about it before, but he didn't have the 'idea' to practice it!

  Of course, no matter what the guide 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 uneasiness in his heart.

   Anyway, it is a parallel world, which is just used for experiments.

  So, Ian directly sent a piece of ideas and information about the 'artificial soul' to the swarm on the opposite side.

  Adbert has carried out relevant research a few days ago, but has not yet created a real 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 swarm is useless at all, on the contrary, the data of biological experiments and the attached "swarm mind network" are very useful.

  The important thing about the artificial soul is not the technology itself, but the ideas provided by Ian.

  【There is no need to use the resources in a corner of the South China Sea to develop forces and farms to fight against the whole world... Now you must not know how deep the water behind Terra is. It is impossible for the insect swarm to defeat these fifth energy levels with a simple frontal confrontation】

  【Live, assimilate, develop secretly, don’t fight... don’t develop swarms to expand the number, but try to integrate into humans, let us become humans, let humans become us】

  【Select some potential human beings, endow them with souls, hide behind them, conduct experiments, and spread influence】

[Absorb those who are desperate for human society, such as those refugees in the western region, or adventurers who explore the maze, select intelligent and talented ones from them, and help them become sublimators, excellent technicians, scientific researchers, or He is an excellent and well-known adventurer and has become our cornerstone】

  【Substantially change their thinking mode and assimilate into our thinking network】

[Establish secret organizations, or sects, to hide our identities...Those special human beings who can accept us will treat them as "clergymen" with special abilities and disciplines to the outside world... Terra is very big, We will not be suspected]

  【Give up direct confrontation, give up direct brainwashing and parasitism, give up any seemingly straightforward and efficient 'shortcuts'... We develop steadily, use the 'soul' as the main body, and grow among humans]

   This is the conclusion Ian came to after seeing the dream of the worm's nest.

At that time, I hadn't seen the imperial capital, didn't know how strong the fifth energy level was, and didn't know how strong the prediction ability of the Huaiguang Church was, so relying on my short-term experience in Nanling, after six years of development, I became Immediately attack - sure enough, was defeated by the coalition forces.

   This is the mistake of being too young.

  If Ian had known this key information from the beginning, Ian would never have done this, but would have replaced it with this more cautious and gentle method.

   As for whether this method has any effect...

  Ian is experimenting, isn't he?

   A laboratory as big as the entire parallel world is just right to do some large social and species invasion experiments to enrich the database!

  Crossing the river by feeling yourself belongs to yes.

   And, not only that.

  —As long as he keeps in touch, the next time he guides, he will still respond to this swarm worldline.

  Ian thought that he might be able to prostitute the technology of the "Bug-optimized Artificial Soul" from the other party?

-right? Not impossible!

  As Ian, who vowed to prostitute all of Terra's technologies for free, even he in the parallel world would not let him go!

   "The ability of the guiding star... is indeed very strong. It's just like my predictive vision, it can't give direct combat power, and it needs to be developed slowly!"

  After sending the relevant materials, Ian felt refreshed—the next thing to do is to wait until he has achieved results in the parallel world, and then recycle it directly!

   This kind of idle scientific research, the good thing of free whoring technology can actually be encountered by him, it is really his psionic ability!

  Afterwards, Ian tried to activate the 'Path of Spiritual Disaster' again.

   As a result, there was no response.

  Ian could perceive 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.

   "Not enough people are guided by me..."

  Ian muttered to himself.

  He realized that the reason why he was able to call out the 'Blood Hunter' was not only because of the original ether he condensed, but also because of the mountain people in the Avod tribe.

Ian raised his head and looked towards the direction of the mountain people celebrating the rekindling of the sacred fire, thinking in his heart: "So, if you want to activate the ability of the guiding star, you need enough 'I have guided you in the direction'." , who are willing to trust me'."

"Because of the holy mountain, these mountain people are willing to trust me and be guided by me, so they can support my heart, light, body and swarm...but that's all. I want to connect with the swarm while connecting with the swarm. Spiritual disaster, more and more people need to believe in me."

  People who are guided by Ian, their beliefs can be used by his mind light body to condense a special spiritual energy and transform it into a "communication channel" connecting the parallel world.

   It's just that there are relatively few people who can provide strong beliefs, and ordinary people can only rely on numbers to pile up.

Ian can also give up connecting with the swarm and go to connect with the psychic disaster instead... But in that case, if he hangs up the phone for scientific research, the progress of prostitution technology will be cut off, and next time he wants to contact the person from countless parallel worlds Guided swarms...

   It’s not that it’s impossible, but in general it depends on fate.

If you want to connect the swarms and spiritual disasters at the same time, it is not enough for only one Avod department, and even the Xiahui Territory is not enough-Ian needs to expand the population of the territory, develop more people, and let more people People believe in themselves and are guided by themselves.

   "Interesting, almost like a dead king, but it is a healthier mode of gathering the power of everyone."

   "Perhaps, I, who was on the path of spiritual disaster, got the inspiration from this aspect, so I developed the follow-up belief system of spiritual gods."

  As for the path of the swarm...the heart light body of the swarm should not be the guiding star.

  Actually, even Ian, who is on the path of spiritual disaster, may not be the guiding star, but he is also a mind light body developed from the vision horizon. It is not surprising that the functions are similar.

   It can even be said that Ian's guiding star may be a platform for connecting many parallel worlds to himself?

  Thinking of this, Ian raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Is this the power of the mind light body...it's incredible."

   "I'm really curious, what kind of power does the mind light body of other prophets have."

  Ian withdrew the guiding star—just like Elder Manya, even if he had the core of the ancient dragon and the crystals of the aether to supply energy, based on his foundation, he could not maintain the heart light body for too long.

  The phantom of the blood hunter also completely disintegrated, turning into a scarlet streamer, returning to the jewel of the star crown.

   In the future, Ian will pay the original ether, and he can also summon it.

  Elder Manya went to rest, and Ian also went to rest and wait, waiting for the arrival of the King of the Mountain.

  Time flew by, and Ian, who was resting, felt a movement in his heart. He felt a strange wave of spiritual energy coming from afar, as if communicating with himself.

  【Please wait a moment, we will be there soon】

  It was a soft female voice, the voice of the King of the Mountain.

   Here comes the King of the Mountain.

  However, it is different from the majestic dragon Ian had seen before.

   This time, when I came to Avod, what descended in front of Ian was a gentle and beautiful woman.

   Today is my birthday! Try to eat something good~
