Chapter 96 The Spiritual Sea is You Control Me
Bai didn't know much about Carter. His impression of him was that he was a little hedgehog-like male insect with big eyes, a slightly weird personality, but a kind heart.
Following Nan Qi to the Central Star, Carter's brother Arnold is the manager of Nan Qi's braised food store. After arriving at the Central Star, Carter went to school to continue his studies. It is said that he has good grades and never causes trouble. However, because his mental strength is at the F level, he has few friends at school.
Arnold had mentioned this to Nan Qi while he was there, and it was clear he was distressed. Carter, on the other hand, didn't care at all, only thinking about graduating quickly and helping his brother open the shop.
Because Arnold and Carter were Nan Qi's direct descendants, Nan Qi's method of refining his spiritual body was not hidden from the two insects. Although the two insects did not hold out hope, they still followed suit and practiced.
Everything was fine before, but two days ago, Carter suddenly had a headache. After Pu Bo examined him, he came to a shocking conclusion - Carter had a headache because his spiritual sea was being opened up bit by bit.
There is no change in mental strength for the time being, but the spiritual sea is indeed getting bigger little by little.
This concept sounds abstract, but every Zerg knows what the Spirit Sea is and what it symbolizes.
Everyone knows that the Zerg's mental power levels are SSS, SS, S, A, B, C, D, and F from high to low, and one of the innate conditions that determines the mental power level is the size of the mental sea.
Zerg with a broad spiritual sea will have higher spiritual power after completely stabilizing the spiritual sea.
The mental manifestation agent injected into the Zerg cubs during the full moon is a potion that helps the cubs open up and broaden their spiritual sea.
For cubs with the same talent, the spiritual sea of those that have not been injected with the spiritual power manifestation agent will also manifest and take shape as they grow older, but the spiritual sea will be more fragile and narrow than that of the insects that have been injected with the spiritual power manifestation agent, and their future achievements will also be lower.
Of course, the inherent breadth of the spiritual sea is not always a good thing. The wider the spiritual sea is, the more turbulent the spiritual power will be, which makes the insect cubs more sensitive.
It's like wearing clothes and shoes that fit an adult insect in a small body. If you're not careful, you'll be tripped by inappropriate clothes and shoes, and some people's mental seas will collapse and they may become idiots.
What's more, the spiritual sea shrinks, and after it stabilizes, the spiritual power level is not high.
But no one knows what the spiritual sea is and what it looks like. They can only manifest spiritual power and the spiritual sea through specific instruments.
This kind of instrument is not a product of their technological development. Its origin is somewhat mysterious. It is mentioned in a document about mental power in the huge amount of information stored in the main brain.
Based on the data, scientists found a replacement key core and created an instrument to measure mental power and spiritual sea.
Since then, the Zerg have become more accurate in dividing mental power.
Carter is an F-class male insect. His spiritual sea is naturally narrow. If I have to describe it, it is probably the size of a peanut. Naturally, the spiritual power he can mobilize is pitifully small.
However, after practicing Nan Qi's method of refining the spiritual body, this male insect with a narrow spiritual sea found that its spiritual sea was opened up again. In addition to the little male insect's amazing understanding, Nan Qi's "method of refining the spiritual body" was more important.
Pu Bo asserted that if Carter continued to practice, it was only a matter of time before his spiritual sea was opened up, and by then, his spiritual power would inevitably increase.
This conclusion is bold and crazy, but Bai had already known such a result. Pu Bo's argument based on science was just adding evidence.
After knowing this, Bai immediately issued a gag order. Except for Pu Bo and the Arnold brothers who were present, even Nan Qi, who had gone out to the bathroom at the time, did not know this.
So, why did Carter disappear just after he condensed his spiritual body?
Bai didn't believe that Carter's disappearance had nothing to do with his recent changes.
How could this be such a coincidence?
So the question is, who leaked the news?
Arnold is Carter's brother. He would do anything for Carter and would never betray his younger brother.
Pu Bo himself practiced the method of refining the spiritual body, and probably had a sense of this a long time ago. It was just that their spiritual bodies were wider than those of ordinary insects, so it was not obvious.
Pu Bo had known this for a long time. If he wanted to betray him, he didn't need to use Carter as a scapegoat. He could just cultivate F-level male insects to practice the spirit body condensation method and then use them for anything else. So it wasn't Pu Bo either.
It couldn't be Pu Bo, and it was even less likely to be him. He was busy protecting this secret, so how could he reveal it?
The place they conducted the inspection was a private room in the braised food restaurant. For the sake of customers' privacy, there were naturally no surveillance cameras installed, so the only person who could leak the information was Carter himself.
If an underage male insect has the opportunity to change his fate one day, he may let it slip and be heard by someone with ulterior motives, which may lead to his disappearance.
Of course, all this was just his guess. Anyone with a clue could find out what the relationship between Carter and Nan Qi was through the braised food shop.
It is possible that the bugs who knew the relationship between Carter and Nan Qi discovered the changes in Carter and kidnapped Carter.
But no matter what the reason, he has to take care of this matter.
After taking a look at Nan Qibai in his arms, he carefully stood up and went out the door, and made a video call to Arnold, who must have been very anxious.
The opponent responded immediately, and Arnold with red eyes appeared on the virtual screen.
After a brief greeting, Arnold spoke in a hoarse voice, "Admiral, if there is any way, I will not disturb you and Nan Qi."
"After I couldn't contact Carter, I contacted Carter's teacher. The teacher told me that Carter didn't go to school, but I was sure I sent Carter to school. I was so worried that I called the police, but the officer who answered the call said that they couldn't file a case if the child hadn't been missing for 24 hours."
"Carter has always been very well behaved. He goes home right after school and never stays out overnight. He doesn't have many friends, and the communication line is broken. I, I really have no choice..."
Arnold didn't want to disturb Nan Qi and Bai so early, but he had no other choice.
He went to the places Carter liked to go, and also went to Carter's school. After climbing over the wall, he walked almost every corner of the campus, but found nothing.
After leaving the campus, he went straight to the local Xing police station, but was told that he could not file a case.
The police officer who answered the call said they couldn't file a case if it wasn't at least 24 hours old. Even though Arnold hadn't been to school much, he knew it was just a way of getting him to stop.
Carter was a minor, and as long as a report was filed about a missing minor, the police had to go. This star police officer obviously looked down on him because he was an F-class male insect, so he used this excuse to perfunctorily deal with him and refused to go to the police station.
Arnold was so angry that he wanted to bite his teeth, but it was no use. He could only shamelessly ask Nan Qi for help.
"I understand," Bai He, who knew the Star Police's style, said soothingly, "I'll send Bug to investigate this matter right away. I'll also put pressure on the Star Police. Think about whether Carter has been in close contact with anyone recently."
Arnold frowned. Carter was a sharp-minded kid. He knew his classmates looked down on him because he was an F-rank male insect, so he didn't try to make friends with them to avoid any conflicts that might arise from their status.
He didn't want to see his brother in trouble, nor did he want to trouble Nan Qi, so he always kept to himself. He really couldn't think of anyone who was closely connected with Arnold.
Ultimately, Arnold blamed himself for neglecting Carter recently.
Bai knew Arnold was in a state of panic when he saw his condition, so he didn't ask much. He comforted him and told him not to worry. If he could catch Carter's bugs for money, he would contact them. He also asked Carter about the places he liked to go and the routes he took.
Arnold nodded randomly. He wasn't stupid, and he knew that Carter's bugs were probably not for money, but he still answered all of Bai's questions with a faint hope.
After getting Bai's promise to contact him at any time, Arnold hung up the phone and sat on the sofa at home in tears.
Bai looked at the hung up call and thought to himself that what was coming would come. He was extremely careful, but still made a mistake.
If Carter really disappears due to his own changes, we can only hope that he keeps his mouth shut and doesn't betray Nan Qi.
Otherwise, Nan Qi's situation would immediately become difficult. He could only make the next plan in advance to save Nan Qi. He had to prepare for the worst.
And there is Carter. If something really happens to Carter, Nan Qi will feel guilty, and he has to find a way to find Carter as soon as possible.
Hopefully, Carter is smart enough to hold on until they find him.
Taking a deep breath, Bai sent an encrypted message to the teacher. After their last meeting at the black market, the teacher told him what Shen Ji had done over the years.
The teacher has been silent for these years and has been training some creatures with Prince Keppel as a secret force.
The teacher said that he could come to him anytime if he needed anything. This time he really needed the teacher's power in the dark to take action.
The teacher quickly gave him an OK sign, and Bai put down the Star Brain and turned back.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw Nan Qi standing quietly at the door.
Bai paused. He didn't know when Nan Qi would wake up, and how much of his conversation with Arnold he had heard. Would he blame him for reading his message and contacting Arnold on his own initiative?
Will he feel that he is meddling in his affairs?
Will you hate yourself?
At this moment, Bai thought of all the possibilities in his mind and was about to apologize, but was interrupted by a hug from Nan Qi.
Nan Qi's embrace was very warm, and it gave Bai Moda confidence in this cool autumn morning.
Nan Qi did not blame him. The next second, he really heard Nan Qi say to him with a smile: "Bai, it's a good thing that you are by my side to help me solve these problems."
Nan Qi's voice was very low, close to his ear, and his warm breath hit his neck. He lay exhausted in Nan Qi's arms and asked in a muffled voice: "Don't you blame me for reading your message and making decisions for you without discussing it with you?"
"Why should I blame you? I was afraid you would see it, so I set the message not to pop up." Nan Qi gently stroked the back of Bai's head. "You and I are married, and we know each other's feelings. We are one. Of course you can make the decision for me."
"And I know you're so anxious to contact Arnold because this matter can't be delayed. Even if you have to wake me up, I still want your help."
Nan Qi let go of Bai and looked into his eyes with a smile: "I also know that you didn't wake me up because you guessed the reason why Carter disappeared. You didn't want me to investigate it myself because you were afraid that I would be targeted."
"But, but you should be angry..." Bai wanted to say, even if I think so, I shouldn't make the decision for you without telling you, you should be angry, if you continue to tolerate me like this, I might become even worse.
The next second, Nan Qi's slender fingers touched his lips. Nan Qi's eyes curved, and her smile was prettier than the fox spirits in fairy tales. Her voice also seemed to have a little hook:
"Shh, stop talking. I'm not angry. I just like you to control me and make decisions for me. But I also have a bottom line," Nan Qi changed the subject, "If your decision is to endanger yourself to protect me, I will be really angry when I know it."
"So, you can't lie to me about this, promise me, Bai." Nan Qi restrained his smile, held Bai's shoulders with both hands, and looked at Bai seriously.
Bai avoided Nan Qi's gaze guiltily and nodded up and down to please Nan Qi.
Nan Qi could see that Bai clearly didn't want to listen to him. There was no point in saying more, so he could only watch Bai more often in the future.
Sighing secretly, Nan Qi looked at the time. After what happened with Arnold, it was already 7 o'clock.
I can't sleep, and I guess Bai is the same. And given their physical fitness, they won't feel too tired after not sleeping for a night.
Since there are so many things to do and they can't sleep, let's start solving them one by one.
Let’s start with Carter’s disappearance, which is a good opportunity to test how much of his abilities have recovered.
Bai didn't want him to interfere, for fear that he would be targeted, but in the case of Carter, it really couldn't be done without him.
