It's like you are hiding in a coffee shop and suddenly feel a WIFI signal without a password. Jiang Ling finds that he has suddenly opened the door to a new world.
She had always thought that people with psychic abilities were just individual advantages, and had never considered its fundamental principles. But now, she saw the huge potential of biological symbiosis, and cooperation between awakened people became possible.
According to statistics on the site, approximately one-third of all living things have mutated, with individuals with psychic abilities accounting for approximately one in a million. While it may seem as though each Awakened being is unique, they actually possess universal and shared commonalities. At the very least, psychic abilities themselves remain the same; only the methods of their utilization differ.
This power is like solar energy, kinetic energy, thermal energy, and other energies. It is not only humans who can make good use of it, but other creatures can also make good use of it. Moreover, the way and method they use psychic power will evolve faster than humans can learn.
In the past, people would summarize the laws of nature by observing organisms. Some of these imaginative people designed a number of bionic structures that conform to modern theories based on the appearance of organisms.
Bionics has always been a popular field, though it has recently been surpassed by computer modeling. However, simulations always operate according to established theories. If the theory changes, the model must also change. This differs from the way biology works, which naturally finds its own way. Biology is the fastest, most vivid, and most objective display of the laws of matter.
By observing flying insects like dragonflies, we created micro-ornithopters; by observing fish, we developed early submarines; by observing the chloroplasts of green plants, we found ways to efficiently produce organic matter and solved the global food shortage problem; by observing ourselves, exoskeletons and bionic prosthetics came into being. . . .
Jiang Ling found herself "seeing" a wealth of knowledge she had never seen before from this group of unknown creatures. It was like an unprotected database, allowing her consciousness to jump back and forth between different "servers" at an extremely fast speed, accessing the wonderful knowledge that should have been locked in isolated information islands.
Let me start with the conclusion: Jiang Ling found a way to return. At some point, her consciousness reached an unknown place.
It looked like an island, with red and purple plants growing in the center. Strange-looking animals frolicked in a strange forest. A gentle evening breeze blew across the sea, and the starry sky was obscured by white clouds, revealing only a silvery waning moon.
Jiang Ling felt as if she were experiencing it herself. Looking down, she found herself possessed by an arthropod. The animal was fixed to the reef, unable to move, simply because it was a tiny barnacle.
These barnacles were about half a meter wide, stacked one on top of the other. They looked very similar to the lower half of the mutant composite creature that Jiang Ling had killed—the same jagged openings and the same reddish-brown surface texture.
Surrounding this island, the coast was covered in the same barnacles. She didn't know how these creatures originally perceived the world, but from what she felt now, they must be highly advanced mutants, and if she was right, they probably already had their own consciousness, and even built a unique civilization based on it.
These barnacles carried a lot of consciousness, and streams of consciousness often passed through the barnacle where Jiang Ling was. She had never seen so many streams of consciousness signals converge in the same place. She guessed that this might be a meeting room - a meeting room for psychics only.
A lively song came into Jiang Ling's mind, at least she felt it was a song. Then the charming music automatically turned into information in her mind.
[Southern, ocean currents have brought new explorers. Elder, what should we do?]
【We will expel them. We don’t need to exchange with those tribal natives. 】
After a while, another proud contralto appeared. It seemed to have an invisible power that penetrated the hearts of all the conscious beings here, forcing Jiang Ling to hide herself.
【Follow the elders! 】
The lively voice disappeared.
After this, the consciousnesses began to stir and communicate with one another. They were so noisy that Jiang Ling even considered eavesdropping. Unfortunately, not long after, new noises arose. A sharp, high-pitched voice, tinged with a hint of urgency, disrupted the strange and noisy environment.
[Elder! In the bitter cold land of the central region, we encountered a giant whale from the Land Tribe! Two of our kind have already returned to the Holy Land! If you don't intervene, we will all perish!]
[Destroy it at all costs... No, that's not right! They never leave the coast... No, wait. Why you again?!] The elder's voice was cut off mid-sentence.
Jiang Ling almost thought she was discovered, but she soon heard a familiar voice.
"Siren, you were the ones who broke the agreement first!" Ning Weihe said sternly, "This is a scientific expedition. You won't understand even if I tell you. If you insist on attacking us, then let's fight. What can a man endure? Don't say I didn't warn you!"
[Lu Clan, we never intended to attack you. You were the first to invade our fertile land, so we are passively counterattacking!] The elder said this in a tongue-twisting way, and no one knew where he had learned it from.
"What the hell is this land? I told you, that sea has been our territory since ancient times! Just go back to where you came from, and we can live in peace. Don't bother complaining here!" Old Ning cursed, uncharacteristically.
