Chen Ming needs to deal with the things that were just found during the body search.
Bai Quan also needs to comfort the few people who were thrown out of the spaceship by Chen Ming before, and at the same time record the accident and put the blame on Lou Wei.
Although it is unlikely that Lou Wei would really do such a thing at this time, who can guarantee that the person on the other side will not have his own ideas?
The blame must be put on them, which can help them gain a say and more benefits in future matters.
What's more, only he and Chen Ming, as well as the people on Lou Wei's side, knew the specific route of their actions after they set off.
No one who was traveling with him, not even his secretary, knew about this.
The people who could leak the spacecraft's flight route must be from Lou Wei's side, so there is no problem in causing trouble for them.
And just half an hour after Chen Ming sailed away from that galaxy.
On a habitable planet within the galaxy, a figure suddenly emerged from the shadows of the rocks near the location where the Black Mist Psychic was previously captured.
He was also filled with black mist, as if he was also a black mist psychic.
However, the black mist on his body dissipated quickly. He was not surrounded by the black mist for a long time like the Black Mist Psychic, revealing an eye-catching and handsome face.
In the palm of his left hand, where his little finger was missing, there were several glass beads of different colors being twirled around by him.
The moment the new psyker stepped out of the shadows, he noticed the huge trace left by the Stardust-class landing.
He looked at the landing traces for a few seconds, then walked to the place where Chen Ming caught the black mist psychic.
Here he saw again the deep pit that seemed to have been dug from underground to the surface, as well as the footprints of two robots next to the deep pit walking towards the traces of the spacecraft landing.
The psychic's expression remained unchanged as he put away the glass bead he was fiddling with.
He took out a terminal, took photos and videos of all the traces, and made a phone call after sending the footage.
But he hung up again immediately.
His eyes suddenly locked onto the base of a nearby rock.
He walked quickly forward and found a miniature surveillance probe in the corner below the rock, which had obviously been manufactured not long ago.
The psychic immediately stepped on the surveillance camera, which was only the size of the tip of his little finger, and raised his head to look around.
He now has no way of confirming whether there is a second or even more surveillance cameras left by Chen Ming nearby.
He could only frown and put his hands into his pockets.
A black mist suddenly burst out from his body, shrouding the entire environment in darkness. This black mist also had the ability to block sound, completely eliminating the possibility of Chen Ming's surveillance.
Chen Ming, who was already on the spaceship at this time, could only say what a pity.
Although his psychic power does not necessarily require a monitoring structure to be monitored, in fact, as long as there is a little remnant of the object controlled by his psychic power, even if there is only one iron atom left, he can observe the surrounding situation to a certain extent through this iron atom.
But at this moment in the black fog, he really couldn't see anything.
But fortunately, he still managed to obtain some information through his casual arrangement.
That psychic and the glass beads he carried with him were definitely related to his ability to use the Black Mist Psychic's Black Mist Psychic.
And within the black fog, the psychic made another call.
The moment the call was connected, he said: "Chen Ming left some tricks here, and my current appearance has been seen."
A vague, processed voice came from the other end of the line: "It's okay, where's the black fog?"
"We've found it. The last trace of his spiritual energy fluctuations remained here."
"But I guess he's either dead or captured alive. No matter which one it is, we probably won't see him again."
There was silence on the other end of the phone when I heard the news.
The psychic felt in his pocket and pulled out a dark, broken glass bead.
He casually threw the broken glass beads on the ground, and took out a handful of glass beads from another pocket of his clothes, which were the same clear and transparent glass beads that Chen Ming had found on the Black Mist Psychic before.
His psychic energy fluctuations gradually gathered on these transparent beads, and under the stimulation of the psychic energy, these beads suddenly began to absorb the remaining psychic energy fluctuations belonging to the Black Mist psychic.
Three glass beads in a handful gradually turned extremely black during the absorption process, just like the black beads that Chen Ming had taken from the black mist psychic before.
The psychic picked out three black glass beads and put them in another pocket. After putting away the remaining glass beads, he said to himself, "It's a pity that his psychic power can only be used three times. It will be out of print in the future. It's obviously quite useful."
After hearing this, the person on the other end of the phone immediately asked, "Where is Chen Ming's remaining spiritual energy fluctuation?"
The psychic's eyes subconsciously swept around him, and then swept over the surveillance wreckage that was completely shrouded in black fog not far away: "No."
"No? Didn't he leave something with you?"
"Leaving something behind doesn't mean he left behind spiritual energy fluctuations."
"I've noticed this before. When his psychic power acts on anything, there is no psychic fluctuation. His psychic power only produces psychic fluctuation when it is activated."
"Chen Ming has been deliberately hiding his spiritual energy fluctuations. There is no trace left. Unless I fight him head-on, I can't extract it at all."
"So cautious... can you get any other information?"
"Yes, he still has a lot of things that he can't hide."
The psychic responded and said, "Chen Ming has a very strong spiritual stone in his hand. Its strength is not close to the level of 'spirit', but judging from the traces left, its nature is very extreme."
"Chen Ming's psychic power is there. He must know how to make some mental pulse devices, and he will definitely use this as a means of attack."
"If you want to get close to Chen Ming, you must be able to adapt to the pulse of your mind. Black Mist must have suffered a loss in this regard."
"But Chen Ming's close combat ability should not be strong."
The person on the other end of the line asked, "How did you tell that?"
The psychic half-knelt on the ground and rubbed his fingertips on the sand, revealing a few drops of blood that had already merged with the sand and solidified.
He filmed this and sent it over, saying, "Black Mist is injured and bleeding, but it's not serious."
"He was a professional close combat assassin who was forced here and was killed or captured alive, but he only had minor injuries. If Chen Ming's close combat ability is strong, it would be unreasonable."
"With the help of that extreme spiritual stone, Black Mist should have been killed directly on the spaceship, so I think Chen Ming's close combat ability is definitely not strong."
"If you come again next time, find a psychic with strong physical abilities."
The psychic patted the dust off his hands, stood up and continued: "Then, Chen Ming's mental power is inestimable, and his strength is far beyond that of psychics in the same period. This can prove my guess about Chen Ming's close combat ability."
"Because the spiritual energy fluctuations and mental power left by the black fog here have become unstable, this is definitely a sign that he has exploded with a huge amount of mental power in an instant."
"Black Mist doesn't have the means to unleash so much mental power. There is only one possibility for this to happen, and that is a mental power collision."
"And it must have been Chen Ming who initiated it."
The psychic suddenly said with certainty.
"Black Mist had absolutely no problem getting close to Chen Ming at the beginning. He didn't know that his men were very difficult to defend against, but his first assassination attempt failed."
"I was dragged into a head-on battle by Chen Ming. However, Chen Ming's main combat power must be on the spaceship. It is impossible for him to gain an advantage over Black Mist, who specializes in close combat, in terms of psychic power."
"He can't gain an advantage in psychic energy, and he can't win in physical combat. The Spiritual Stone can't completely secure victory. It seems that he can only use this method."
"Chen Ming's close-range combat ability must be relatively poor. He probably saw that Black Mist's total mental power was not high, so he did this."
"Black Mist has either given up or lost."
"He must be scared, otherwise his spiritual energy fluctuations would be even worse."
"wrong."
"He should have died directly on the spaceship."
"After he chickened out and barely survived, he hid underground on the planet, but Chen Ming chased him and captured Black Mist with almost no resistance."
"This should be the process that happened over there in the black fog."
"If we want to attack Chen Ming again, it would be best if three psychics cooperate."
"One is responsible for approaching, one is responsible for getting rid of Chen Ming's spiritual stone, and the last one is responsible for hand-to-hand combat."
The other end of the phone fell silent again, and after a long while, he said, "These are really harsh conditions."
The psychic shrugged and said, "This is what I can analyze. In fact, Black Mist can do it alone, but his mental strength cannot support the task that three people should do."
"Do you think it's really worth losing a psychic like this to do something like this?"
The person on the other end of the phone said, "If Kuroki comes back alive, it will be worth it even if the assassination fails."
"Since we have obtained Chen Ming's whereabouts and know where Chen Ming is going, we must give it a try."
"We can try to assassinate Chen Ming, create a troublesome enemy for Hu Yi, and disgust another faction of the Fourteenth Legion. Why not do it?"
The psychic obviously disagreed with the person on the other end of the line, and said into the phone: "But unfortunately, Black Mist is dead."
"Who would have thought that he, who was the most suitable for assassination and had the strongest ability to escape, would fall into Chen Ming's hands?"
"It's doubtful whether he has the best escape ability, so what's next? What should we do?"
There was silence on the phone for a while, and then he said, "Come back. Don't think about attacking Chen Ming yet. We don't have many psychics. We must think of a more complete plan."
"Anyway, we have already touched Chen Ming. Even if we don't do anything next, the Fourteenth Legion will definitely start a quarrel."
"It would be best if a civil war could start. It would be beneficial to us no matter who is weakened."
The psychic glanced at the terminal, hung up the phone, and said to himself, "I don't expect this to happen."
As he spoke, his figure sank into the shadows and disappeared from the planet.
The surrounding black fog gradually dissipated, but no trace was left behind.
At this time, on the Stardust level.
Chen Ming watched the black fog dissipate with some regret. Unfortunately, the camera was not hidden enough and he only got a little information.
But there is no point in regretting now, as it cannot change what happened.
Chen Ming saved all the information obtained through surveillance.
Then he examined the spoils he had just obtained, which he had never seen before.
He ruled out drugs and the like, and his main concern was the bone sword and three glass beads with psychic energy fluctuations.
The full name of the bone longsword is [Night Owl Tail Blade Bone Longsword (Muffled)]
Living on a planet illuminated by only a faint star, but with abundant underground life.
The geological conditions of this planet are very special, and its ecosystem is also very unique. There are huge cavities underground that exist almost everywhere on the planet, and the surface of the earth's crust is supported by countless giant pillars with diameters of hundreds or even thousands of meters.
In this dark underground world, where only fluorescent plants provide a small amount of light but the biodiversity is extremely rich, the night owl is the top predator.
For the psychic creatures in such a dark world, their psychic powers will naturally develop in this direction.
So it is just right for Black Mist Psychics.
This person is really lucky.
Unfortunately, his good days are over.
Chen Ming put away his sword and then looked at the three glass beads.
The names of the two intact glass beads are [Heart-Gathering Spirit Bead (Black Mist)] and [Heart-Gathering Spirit Bead (None)]. Just as Chen Ming thought, they were the creations of the psychic.
The broken red and blue glass bead is called [Broken Heart Spirit Bead (Entropy)].
Although the specific effects could not be seen, Chen Ming already had some uncertain guesses just by looking at these names.
However, you can't just guess at this kind of thing, it's better to ask a professional.
Chen Ming picked up the terminal and called his boss directly.
While on the phone, Chen Ming also confirmed his last trophy, which was the Black Mist Psychic himself.
The way to deal with this trophy is very simple. Just find a way to get a spiritual awakening nerve and try to extract it.
Black Mist's psychic power is quite interesting.
Even after getting the real spiritual awakening nerve, Chen Ming still has to consider whether to use it himself or on the black fog psychic.
The call was connected quickly.
Chen Ming greeted him, "Long time no see, boss."
Because it was a video call, Chen Ming noticed that the boss did not seem to be in the hardware store, but somewhere else, and was also wearing formal clothes.
However, the boss didn't seem to be very busy and even had time to greet Chen Ming: "It's Xiao Ming, what's up?"
"Well, I just had a fight with a psychic and got something from him."
"Wait, aren't you in the 14th Legion?"
"I was ambushed when I was out doing something. It should be the psychic from Zuo Jing and Hu Yi."
The boss glanced to the side, but immediately turned back and said, "The psychic from the left? What's the result?"
"As a result, I didn't even see Hu Yi and he ran away, but the other psychic who used the black mist is in my hands now."
"I got something from him, but I can't quite understand the specific effect."
The boss understood what Chen Ming meant and said, "You want to ask me, right? Take it out and let me see."
Chen Ming placed three glass beads on the table and said, "They all have spiritual energy fluctuations."
The boss stared at the glass bead for a while, his expression gradually became serious, and he said: "This is something I have never seen before. It should be related to the ability of psychics."
"Did you see that psyker you captured use this thing?"
"I've never seen anyone actually use it, but the color of this glass bead may correspond to other people's psychic powers."
"Corresponding to other people's psychic powers?"
"For example, this black one, I feel it is very likely to correspond to the psychic power of the Black Mist Psychic I captured. I have two video clips here that should be able to prove it."
"Send it to me."
"OK."
Chen Ming immediately sent over a video of the Black Mist Psychic using his psychic powers, a video of the Black Mist Psychic being captured by him, and a video of the psychic who came later using the Black Mist Psychic powers.
The boss quickly finished reading it and said to Chen Ming: "I feel like you have some thoughts..."
However, he suddenly stopped talking before he finished speaking, and turned to Chen Ming and said, "Wait a moment, I have something to do here, don't hang up yet."
The boss looked up, turned on the mute function, and placed the terminal upside down on the table.
He said to Hu Yi, who was sitting next to him and kept gesturing at him, "What?"
After Hu Yi confirmed that Wu An had turned off the sound, he pointed at the terminal and said, "I know this thing."
"I saw him last time when I was discussing cooperation with someone."
"The last time you came to block me?"
"right."
Hu Yi thought back and said, "There is a psychic from Zuojing who plays with glass beads like this. I have seen black and transparent ones in his hands, but I have never seen the red and blue ones."
"Does that person look like the one in the video?"
"No, she looks completely different, but her appearance and movements are very similar. Either she had plastic surgery, or..."
Wu An added on for Hu Yi: "His psychic power can allow him to change his appearance."
"Although I still don't understand the principle of this psychic's psychic power, at least I have figured out the general situation."
"That psychic stole your psychic powers and appearance. That's why 'you' appeared in the Fourteenth Legion before."
"This is a psychic I've never heard of before. He actually has this kind of ability, and he's a psychic from the left path. This is really..."
Wu An shook his head, not knowing whether he felt pity or some special emotion.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Hu Yi again and said, "You should continue to pretend to hide and continue to secretly investigate Zuo Jing."
"Zuo Jing used you to assassinate Xiao Ming and framed you. He must have some ideas about you. They will come after you sooner or later."
"If you reveal your connection with Xiao Ming too early, if the news leaks out, you may never be able to kill the person who pretended to be you in this life."
“Tsk.”
Hu Yi smacked his lips in annoyance.
But Wu An didn't tolerate it and mocked him directly: "You like to stir up trouble without doing a background check? Just bear with it."
Hu Yi waved his hands at Wu An and said, "I have already apologized to you, you have accepted my gift, and I have compensated you for all the money I earned. I have also asked for mercy from the president, so stop talking."
"It's useless for me and the president alone. You haven't done anything with Xiao Ming yet."
Hu Yi had a headache when he heard this, and said, "It's not convenient for me to meet him now, but you see, I'm providing you with information now, right?"
"I will definitely apologize to Chen Ming when I have the chance. I don't want him to keep thinking of me."
"Once this matter is over, I will really find a place to hibernate until you and Chen Ming die of old age."
Wu An tilted his head and looked at him and said, "I may also need to go into hibernation in two years. Are you sure?"
"Tsk, let's talk about it later."
Hu Yi shut up. Wu An didn't continue to talk nonsense with Hu Yi. He turned around and talked about business: "We have a clue, but we may not be able to follow this to investigate."
"They lost someone on Xiao Ming's side, so they may not go looking for him in the short term. They will come looking for you instead."
"I think it's time for you to show your presence a little bit."
"Okay, that's it. I won't talk to you anymore. Xiao Ming is still waiting."
Just as Wu An was about to pick up the terminal, Hu Yi stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Wait, I suddenly remembered one more thing."
"That's how to use this glass bead. If I remember correctly... it should be infused with spiritual energy, then crushed directly, and the rest is up to your feeling."
Wu An looked at Hu Yi suspiciously and asked, "How did you know?"
"Um... I talked to the guy from Zuo Jing before and asked him what this thing was for. He gave me one to try..."
"So it might be at that time that my psychic energy fluctuations were stolen."
Wu An looked at Hu Yi as if he was looking at a fool: "I now seriously doubt your IQ and the correctness of cooperating with you."
"I can't help it. I can't walk anymore when I see the money."
Hu Yi also said with a dead pig fearless look: "But at least you figured out how to use it, right?"
"I used my psychic power in front of that psychic before, which is why it was stolen. But Chen Ming is so far away that it shouldn't happen. Just ask him to be careful when using it."
"Also, you have to be careful when using it. If you don't master the nature of spiritual energy, the effect won't be ideal. I pinched a black bead before, but I only had time to learn a little bit, and the effect of the bead expired."
Wu An nodded, picked up the terminal again and said to Chen Ming: "I'm sorry, Xiao Ming, someone just gave me a message and told me the effect of the glass beads in your hand."
The boss explained to Chen Ming roughly according to Hu Yi's statement.
As Chen Ming listened, his gaze gradually shifted from the pitch-black bead to the broken red and blue bead.
Stealing psychic energy?
The boss's words basically confirmed his guess based on the name he obtained through psychic power.
Does this mean that the person who came to the volcano last time was not actually Hu Yi, but just a psychic who stole Hu Yi's psychic power?
Moreover, only Hu Yi's face was photographed. A face cannot be used as evidence in many cases. It was only because of Hu Yi's psychic power that it was confirmed that Hu Yi came to assassinate.
Now it seems that there is a big problem with this matter.
However, Chen Ming still couldn't be 100% sure that Hu Yi did not cooperate with Zuo Jing.
What if Hu Yi took the initiative to ask the psychic for the psychic? And no matter what, there was a big conflict between him and Hu Yi, and Chen Ming would never forget this.
After listening to the boss's story while thinking, Chen Ming thanked him.
Then he put the three glass beads into the silent alloy box.
He took out another bone sword and placed it in front of the terminal.
"Boss, I have something else."
