At this moment, the surging spiritual energy fluctuations on Chen Ming's body were being completely absorbed by the Purgatory Core in his hand, which had been charged to the extreme.
All psychic energy fluctuations were confined within the core by the isolation material of the Purgatory Core, without any excess dissipation.
Chen Ming suddenly got an inspiration when he saw this scene, but now was not the time to deal with it.
He controlled the core of Purgatory and instantly transferred most of the entropy inside the magma at the foot of the vertical volcano, whose bottom had already melted and was visibly tilting, to the surrounding area.
On the premise that all psychic energy fluctuations are transformed into the most practical effects.
The effect and scope of entropy transfer have become so powerful that even the forces of nature cannot resist it.
The flowing magma solidified in an instant, and the terrifying heat was clearly filling the area around the volcano.
But the volcano that was originally flowing with magma and beginning to pour out has now become a pure solid pillar of cold rock.
The dumping action has stopped, and Chen Ming's operation seems... successful?
Just when Chen Ming was a little surprised, he suddenly discovered that more magma was gushing out from under the second volcano that he had already controlled.
"You, aren't you shining?"
It was obvious that the magma supporting this volcano had already erupted before and had all accumulated at the foot of the mountain, but now more magma has appeared. This is definitely not good news for Chen Ming.
And just as the second volcano became active again, the magma activity of the third and fourth volcanoes suddenly became more active.
The magma inside the volcanic column has not yet flowed out and accumulated at the foot of the mountain, but the bottoms of the two volcanoes have already begun to melt and may collapse at any time.
This forced Chen Ming to control the core of Purgatory and at the same time control the entropy of the three surrounding volcanoes.
Otherwise, if a volcano collapses, the dome will be gone.
This not only requires a huge amount of mental energy, but also requires Chen Ming to concentrate on transferring the entropy inside the magma at the bottom and finding a suitable opening specifically for draining the magma.
Otherwise, the entropy will accumulate underground and sooner or later another volcanic eruption will occur.
But the more he tried to guide them, the more difficult it became for Chen Ming to handle all the problems.
It was obvious that his mental energy was constantly being depleted and he was becoming more and more exhausted.
But the magma under the three volcanoes seemed endless, and the entropy that needed to be dissipated seemed to be flowing out from the core of the entire volcanic planet, and could not be handled cleanly at all.
Chen Ming even felt that everything he did was in vain.
The difficulty of a person fighting against the planet is somewhat unbearable.
But it shouldn't be something that can't be done.
The only psychic Chen Ming knew was Shao Yang, who had just become a psychic like him.
Anyone else, whether it’s the boss or the president, or even Yan Xiong, should have the ability to fight against an entire planet.
Chen Ming has been working so hard on his psychic powers during this period, he shouldn't be unable to deal with these small volcanoes.
He couldn't stop yet.
However, whether to stop or not is not determined by Chen Ming's own thoughts, but by his mental strength.
In just a few minutes, an amount of mental energy that would have taken days to exhaust was consumed.
Chen Ming not only felt that his mind was empty, but his entire consciousness also became unconsciously blurred.
He can't bear it anymore.
Although there was a high probability that he himself would survive, the dome would definitely be gone.
At this moment, the ship spirit that had been staying at the highest point near Chen Ming's body suddenly felt something and poked its head, which was almost substantial, out of the hull.
After looking at Chen Ming who was covering his head for a while, it became ethereal and went straight into Chen Ming's body.
The boat spirit's mental power instantly filled the gap in Chen Ming's consumed mental power.
The somewhat confused brain suddenly became clear.
Chen Ming nodded to the boat spirit and once again transmitted the mental power given by the boat spirit to the prosthesis.
The mental power given by the ship spirit is temporary and will dissipate immediately if not used. He must hurry and deal with the three volcanoes.
The moment Chen Ming was ready to invest his mental energy again.
The surging magma that was flowing outward from the bottom of the three volcanoes suddenly stabilized and stopped flowing outward.
This abrupt end of the scene made Chen Ming, who had just prepared himself, feel depressed as if he was about to sneeze but couldn't stop.
And at the moment when the magma at the bottom of the volcano stopped.
Chen Ming saw several destroyers landing outside the dome.
Some soldiers from the Fourteenth Legion wearing extremely heavy heat-insulating power armor walked down from above.
They seemed to be a rescue team.
Right after they came down.
Chen Ming suddenly saw a flash of bright light on the hillsides of the three surrounding volcanoes, and something exploded on the hillsides.
After the flash, all three volcanoes collapsed on the spot, breaking into pieces straightly without any tilt and piling up on the ground.
It seemed that the people of the Fourteenth Legion took the initiative to blast those volcanoes, solving the problem of the dome being hit after collapse.
Although this vertical collapse of the volcano also caused violent ground tremors, the tremors no longer posed any threat to Chen Ming.
And on the ground near the dome.
Chen Ming saw someone wearing armor wading through the magma, placing special explosives, and actively blasting a gap in the ground to drain the magma deep underground.
Another group of people climbed to the top of the dome, apparently to check for damage to the dome.
Another part came to the laboratory surrounded by liquid metal.
Just as they were looking at each other in confusion, the liquid metal in front of them suddenly separated.
Chen Ming came to the door of the laboratory wearing the Locust power armor that Bai Quan had given him the blueprint for, holding the Purgatory Core that was directly exposed to the high heat in his hand, and appeared in front of the rescue team.
The leader of the rescue team immediately said to Chen Ming: "Mr. Chen Ming, please come with us to a safe place."
“I don’t think it’s necessary.”
"Mr. Chen Ming..."
The team leader wanted to dissuade him, but Chen Ming just pointed around.
The metallic liquid that had originally wrapped around the buildings and domes gradually disappeared, revealing those buildings that were safe and sound.
People who went to the top of the dome also reported back that there were no signs of damage to the dome.
I saw that the team leader still had a look of embarrassment on his face.
Chen Ming said again: "I'm really fine here. Let's go to other domes nearby. They should have been affected by the volcanic eruption just now. Go and help them."
"By the way, where is Baiquan? He should want to see me now."
"Lieutenant General Bai is in charge of the rescue. I will notify him immediately."
"Thanks."
"No, no, no, you're too polite."
The team leader quickly turned around to inform Baiquan of the situation.
Although Chen Ming was still a little depressed because of what had just happened, he was generally happy.
The test was successful.
The Inferno Core is quite effective when used on its own.
When he held the Purgatory Core, the psychic structure inside the Purgatory Core was almost equivalent to allowing him to master the psychic power of entropy control and entropy increase.
Then there is the Queen's psychic power and his own psychic power that can be used through the hive mind network.
The three kinds of spiritual powers combined in one body are no longer outrageous.
Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
His research on the core of Purgatory has been completely completed.
Next, after the geological activities are over, he will be able to start manufacturing supporting equipment and create an external device that is originally adapted to the functions of Purgatory Devil, but has different effects from Purgatory Devil.
Allow others to use the Purgatory Core through this device, rather than just being the core of the Purgatory Demon Lord.
It should be done soon.
In addition to this ordinary external device, Chen Ming also needs to help the Fourteenth Legion realize another function he is testing, which is operated by psychic power.
Although the Purgatory Core itself has a backdoor for psychics to use, using this backdoor directly requires very high standards from the psychic himself.
At the very least, the user's ability to perceive the surrounding environment and the amount of mental power must not be reduced.
Other psychics still need appropriate supporting facilities when using the Infernal Core.
It will definitely be much easier to use if there are supporting equipment.
But Chen Ming doesn't know how to make psychic-related equipment.
So he only planned to explain the principle clearly, and leave the rest of the design of the professional psychic device to Baiquan and the 14th Legion.
Thesis, then do it last.
Anyway, once all the previous things are done, the thesis is just putting the ideas in your mind on paper.
It’s a pity that he may not be able to do these things for the time being.
Because something happened late this evening that was problematic.
Just a few minutes after the rescue team leader called Baiquan.
Bai Quan also arrived at Chen Ming's dome on a spaceship.
When he got off the spaceship, his face was extremely dark, and it only got a little better when he saw Chen Ming standing in the laboratory intact.
Chen Ming looked at Bai Quan, who looked like he was about to eat someone, and asked, "Why didn't you call me?"
Baiquan exhaled, and said in a soothing tone: "I wanted to fight at first, but when you saw the situation outside and entered the laboratory, I knew you must have gone to the second underground floor."
"It will be too late for you to leave by the time our rescue team arrives. Calling you is just a waste of time."
Chen Ming thought about it and it made sense. Bai Quan could only say two things to him when he called him before: to remind him to hide first, and to wait for rescue to come and take him away.
There was no need to remind him anymore, he could see the rescue team coming.
There is really no problem if you don't call.
But Baiquan continued: "Besides, the current situation is a bit embarrassing, which makes me a little reluctant to call."
Although this sentence was about the phone call, it also confirmed Chen Ming's previous guess: "It seems that this geological activity is not a simple natural phenomenon."
"You noticed that, too."
"Yes, the location of the three volcanoes at the back is really coincidental."
"It's indeed a coincidence. Do you still remember the psychic I once helped you investigate? He was the psychic who stopped Wu An when you were fighting Yan Xiong.
Chen Ming's tone also became as low as Bai Quan's: "I remember him, Hu Yi, you previously investigated and found out that his psychic power is to control temperature, but now it seems that it is not a simple temperature control."
No wonder his mental strength couldn't even handle three volcanoes. If there was someone behind the scenes supporting the flow of magma at the bottom of the volcano, everything would make sense.
"How did he get here?"
Baiquan held up the terminal, which displayed a person's identity and resume.
"A researcher from an institution we cooperated with who had applied to come to the Galo Star Region was replaced by him. Except for the photo that resembles him, all other information is fake."
"I will ask people to increase management efforts in this area, and it won't happen again."
Hu Yi actually came to the 14th Legion in this way. No wonder Bai Quan said he was a disgrace.
Chen Ming glanced at the man's appearance on the terminal, recorded it in his mind, and then said to Bai Quan: "I have two questions."
"you say."
"Why didn't Hu Yi create a volcano directly under the dome?"
Baiquan pointed to his feet and said, "There is a passive detection device directly below the dome that can detect the direction of the magma directly below."
"If he had created a volcano directly below, he would have been discovered long ago. The time it took for the underground magma to accumulate would have been enough to evacuate everyone in the dome."
"The best way to attack the dome is to keep a distance so that the equipment cannot detect accurately until the volcano emerges and is not discovered."
When Chen Ming knew about the control dome, he knew there was detection equipment, and now he asked Bai Quan just to confirm it.
"Then why are there only four volcanoes? Why is he a psychic who can hold back Boss Wu's psychic only to this extent?"
Bai Quan explained again: "Because this is the Fourteenth Legion, Hu Yi cannot use his spiritual energy too much, otherwise he will be discovered soon."
"We have psychics here too, combat-type psychics. If a fight breaks out, he won't be able to escape."
"And if he causes massive casualties to our legion, he will be hunted down by the entire empire."
"You also know what our Fourteenth Legion is doing now."
Chen Ming paused and said, "But since you are like this now, Hu Yi should have already run away."
Baiquan's face darkened instantly, and he admitted: "Yes, he brought another psychic to assist him. When we found him, he ran away and disappeared in a cloud of black mist."
"Black Mist? What psychic?"
"I can't tell from the repulsion. He must be a psychic who has never been registered. He is a civilian psychic."
Of course, not all psykers are willing to be bound by the Empire.
Everyone's ideas are always different.
Some psychics who are willing to be under the jurisdiction of the Empire have already voluntarily joined the government or the army.
There are also some who want to join forces and obtain the benefits that can only be obtained by joining forces, but do not want to join the government and the army. In this way, they will look for forces within the various empires to join.
For example, various companies and research institutes all welcome psychics to join them.
Of course, there are also psychics who simply don't want to get involved in the government, the military, or the internal affairs of a company.
Then they can choose to join a loose organization like the Psychic Society.
There are people who don’t want to join anything.
The empire doesn't actually force these people to stay. As long as they register, they'll be allowed to stay. No one will pay too much attention to them unless they cause any trouble.
Unless a psychic like Chen Ming has special psychic effects and cannot be given up at all costs, he will continue to attract the attention of the empire.
There are also psychics who don't want to be subject to any control at all.
They have been hiding in certain places within the empire, not exposed to anyone's sight.
Therefore, it is not impossible that a psychic with abilities similar to teleportation would suddenly appear.
Hu Yi is a veteran psychic after all, so it's not surprising that such a person appears in his network.
"So why did he come here all of a sudden? To seek revenge? I haven't even bothered him yet, and he's here to find me?"
"I remember that he was employed by the top brass in the war zone before. I never had a direct confrontation with him, but I killed Yan Xiong. Does he have a good relationship with Yan Xiong?"
Baiquan thought about it and said, "I have never heard of such a thing."
"Because of you, I paid some attention to Hu Yi for a while."
"After the last incident, some high-ranking officials in the war zone fell out. He shouldn't have shown up."
"And originally I heard that the higher-ups meant to ignore Yan Xiong. After all, he and the people in the war zone were essentially an employment relationship."
"What Hu Yi did was just wandering around the galaxy and stopping Wu An. Even your Psychic Society can't say there is a problem. After all, the one who took action was not from the Psychic Society."
"This is a conflict between psychics. Both parties need to resolve it themselves. As long as it does not affect other ordinary people, the Empire will not interfere."
Chen Ming grasped the key words in Bai Quan's words and said, "Since you said it was originally."
"Yeah, and later I don't know who put up a meaningless wanted notice for him."
"You don't know who it is either?"
"Yes, I can't find it."
"Originally, there was only a hidden conflict between you and him, but someone brought it out into the open."
"And originally, there was no need to bother with this kind of wanted notice, but Yan Xiong really disappeared after that incident."
“I didn’t expect it to happen in this situation now.”
Chen Ming frowned and asked, "Why do you think he chose to act now? It's okay to offend me, he had already offended me. Did he think his life was too long when he acted on the chassis of your Fourteenth Army?"
"Maybe he thinks that since you have joined our Fourteenth Legion, you will have no chance in the future? He wants to kill you before you are strictly protected and grow up?"
Chen Ming nodded and said, "It's possible."
Baiquan suddenly received a message on his terminal. He took a look and said, "I have already posted the situation. Soon there will be a website in the military and government system that specifically publishes wanted notices for psychics and his name will be posted there."
"There is such a website? No wonder they say that the wanted notice is useless. Doesn't Hu Yi know about this website?"
Bai Quan explained: "Not many people know about this website, but he should know that the wanted notices posted outside are completely useless to psychics. I don't understand what's going on with him. Is he really related to Zuo Jingche?"
Chen Ming could only casually say, "Who knows?"
"No one knows what he is thinking, but you have to be careful in the near future. If he is able to escape, he should be able to come back."
"It's okay. If he can come to see me again next time, it won't be my problem."
Bai Quan was stunned for a moment before reacting and said, "That's true. If he runs into you again, I must take full responsibility."
"If he dares to come again next time, we will definitely be able to stop him, but we may not be able to completely stop him from touching you, and you may still be in danger."
"I understand. I will be on guard."
Hu Yi is a hostile psychic who knows that Yan Xiong died at his hands and is extremely wary of him. He is also a hostile psychic who can compete with the boss. Chen Ming feels troubled just by thinking about it.
"Tell me about his situation when you get a chance, and I'll find a way to kill him."
"Okay, I'll talk to you when I have time. By the way, how's your research going?"
Bai Quan's abrupt turn to this topic made Chen Ming unable to hold back his laughter.
"Not bad. You should have seen the situation nearby. Give me a few more days and I can write down the details."
Just as Chen Ming and Bai Quan finished talking, Bai Quan continued to direct the rescue.
At the other end of the empire, in another prosperous star field near the Sunset Star Field where the Empire and the main forces of the Afterglow were fighting, there was a planet with a pleasant climate.
Hu Yi, who was lying on a recliner in his backyard, suddenly received a call. He opened his eyes and saw that it was a call from the president.
"Hello?"
"You want to kill Chen Ming?"
Hu Yi was stunned and asked, "What did you say?"
The president quickly explained to him the news he had received from Baiquan.
Hu Yi responded with a puzzled look on his face: "But I didn't do anything. I hid somewhere else after I told you last time. Otherwise, I will video chat with you now."
"Then let's do video."
Hu Yi immediately got up and went to the local government department.
More than ten minutes later, the president confirmed that Hu Yi did not run to the 14th Legion.
"But the news from the Fourteenth Army has been confirmed. Due to your relationship with Chen Ming and Wu An, I can't intervene directly. You should find a way to solve it yourself. I'll give you the contact information of the Fourteenth Army and Chen Ming."
Hu Yi could only return to his home with anger at being impersonated.
He knew after the previous incident that he had made a wrong decision. He could not afford to offend a psychic who had the support of the Empire and the psychic society.
So he completely cut off ties with Zuo Jing, ran to the other side of the empire alone, and found a place to live in seclusion far away from the Galo star field.
I was afraid that Chen Ming would find me one day.
He even wanted to hibernate for a hundred or eighty years and then come out after Chen Ming died of old age.
However, he finally gave up on realizing this idea and found a place to enjoy life.
Anyway, he has got the money, and no one will hold him, a psychic, responsible for an employment relationship.
But now, this situation means that he does not have enough evidence to prove that he did nothing.
After all, no one knows what he does when he is in seclusion.
He had to find a way to solve this problem.
He didn't want to take the blame for the assassination of Chen Ming. At most, he just chatted with Wu An for a while.
Hu Yi thought for a while and called Wu An.
