The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Compared with the strong life energy that Mimir felt from Leo's body in the distance, Leo, the person involved, felt the situation more intensely, and he also felt a little bit puzzled and disappointed in his heart.

As he guessed, after absorbing such a large stone throne fragment, his life form completed an evolution, reaching the level of a ninth-level psyker.

It's just that this time the evolution process was somewhat beyond his expectations. He originally thought that such a cross-level evolution would cause some big disturbances, and even felt that it might trigger the backlash of the world's laws, etc., so he these days They were all prepared to deal with various changes, but nothing happened in the end. He just calmly completed an evolution that could stop countless psykers. It was this reason that made him At the beginning, I couldn't help but suspect that my evolution was just an illusion.

It wasn't until he used various methods and completed various self-examinations several times that he was sure that he was indeed a ninth-level psyker, and he also had a true understanding of the life form of a ninth-level psyker. And I know that my previous understanding of ninth-level psykers may be wrong.

In the past, he always thought that a ninth-level psyker was basically equivalent to half-stepping into the level of an Omega-level advanced life form, but in fact, it was not the same thing at all. In the evolutionary level of a psyker, a seventh-level The difference between the eighth level and the ninth level is not very big, but the strength of all basic physical factors such as body, spirit, spiritual power and even the more mysterious soul is increasing by double or even ten times, just like now he I can feel that my body can survive in the lava of the earth core or the vacuum of the universe even without using psionic energy or other abilities. The origin of the life form has not changed completely, just like changing from a pond to a lake, and the water is still water.

Although the essence of life has not changed, after evolving to a ninth-level psyker, Leo felt that there seemed to be something more in his life source, and he could feel that this thing was very powerful, somewhat like the imprint contained in the imprint of the gods. Some kind of world law, but it was stronger than any world law he felt, even the power of the stone throne was much weaker.

However, even though he can feel this power, he can clearly feel that there is a layer of glass between him and this power, or more correctly, a space dimension, so he can only feel it. See this power, but can't use it a little.

In his database, there is no record of this kind of situation. He guessed that it might be some kind of cosmic law, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was impossible, because his current unknown is not in the normal universe. It is in the subspace, where it is impossible to generate any laws of the universe, and if every ninth-level psyker can perceive such power, and even be able to master this power after evolving to an Omega-level advanced life form, then the universe It may have been destroyed long ago. After all, so many beings with such powerful power are stuffed into one universe, the collapse of the universe is inevitable.

In addition, Leo also learned a lot from Sylvia about the life form entering the ninth-level psyker. Now Sylvia, who is in the same life form as him, has not sensed this kind of power, so He suspected that the power he felt was unique.

However, these are just speculations and doubts. If Leo wants to know the answer, there is a ready-made answerer here, Mimir, an omega-like advanced life form that is half a level higher than Leo.

After confirming his situation for a while, Leo's attention was shifted to the small ball suspended in front of his eyes. Although he did not experience any abnormalities during his promotion to the ninth-level psyker, he absorbed the stone throne. When using the power in the fragments, the fragments of the Stone Throne reacted abnormally.

】

However, this reaction is not because of the power of the Stone Throne, but because of another power contained in the Stone Throne that is not much worse than the Stone Throne, or another power that is sealed by the power of the Stone Throne.

When the power of the Stone Throne was absorbed by Leo, the power that was sealed in the fragments began to operate on its own, and changed rapidly, absorbing all the matter and matter in the surrounding mutation field except Leo like a black hole. Immaterial body, which is then compressed into a small ball with this force at its core.

Leo is completely unclear about the power and function of this ball, but he understands that this ball is definitely an artifact that is not much worse than the artifact of the time dimension in consciousness, and it may even be more powerful in combat applications , because Leo felt that he could use this artifact to create a black hole.

I don’t know if all artifacts have the same function. Once the owner’s right to use is recognized, the method of using the artifact will be directly passed on to the user. This is the case with the artifact of the time dimension. This is named Gravity Ball by Leo The same is true for the small ball.

Leo stretched out his hand to grab the ball according to the method he had just obtained in his mind, and then the ball melted into the palm of his right hand as if melting, and at the same time a very complicated symbol appeared on the back of his hand, And what's interesting is that this symbol seems to have a shielding function. Even when he saw this symbol, he just felt complicated. Once he wanted to concentrate on studying the mysteries hidden in the symbol, he would feel dizzy. Even a ninth-level psyker cannot resist it, as if some kind of law power called vertigo directly works in the depths of the soul.

Although he is not the master of this gravity ball like the time dimension artifact, he is just a user, but this does not prevent him from using this artifact, and he also knows that he who owns this artifact is also like Mimir. With the qualifications to confront Omega-level advanced life forms, even if he cannot win, he will not be helpless, and after having the gravity ball, his spatial ability seems to have been greatly improved, tearing apart the space Cracks, fixed as space coordinates, etc. are as simple as drinking water and eating, which made him suspect that the power at the core of the gravity ball comes from the power of space laws in the universe.

After accepting the Gravity Ball and getting a little familiar with how to use it, Leo couldn't wait to try it out. He just casually raised his hand and wiped it in front of his face, and he came to Mimir's side directly from the stone throne fragment. And his appearance also surprised Mimir.

This kind of movement does not move through a space gap, but more like the moment he raised his hand, he erased the space between him and Mimir, and it recovered immediately after he moved, and the whole process did not cause any space. Fluctuations, not even weak energy fluctuations.

"How did you do it?" Mimir stared at Leo dumbfounded, and asked in a deep voice.

Leo asked back: "How did you do it? Solve that holy stone?"

Mimir asked more specifically: "No, how did you move in front of me silently just now?"

"It's very simple, just touch it with your hands." Leo said truthfully, but his words obviously didn't play any role in answering.

Perhaps because he felt that Leo would not tell himself, Mimir didn't ask any more questions, but just looked at Leo very seriously, with a look of jealousy on his face, and said: "It took me a long time to evolve to your current level. Two thousand years."

Leo didn't give any response. He didn't think it was a good thing to tell the other party that it took only a few decades for him to evolve from an ordinary person to a ninth-level psyker.

Mimir seemed to feel that what he just said was a bit too emotional, so he quickly sorted out his emotions, returned to the original calm state, and said in a deep voice: "Do you have any questions? I can answer any questions for you. Questions, as long as I know and don't touch my taboo."

Hearing Mimir's words, Leo felt a little surprised. Although just now Mimir promised him that he would answer some doubts for himself after solving the stone throne fragments, but he didn't think that Mimir would honestly answer the questions in his heart. Any questions will definitely only be answered to a small part, but now Mimir's proactive statement makes him feel that the other party seems to be really willing to answer all questions. This change in attitude made him feel a little confused for a while.

Mimir seemed to see through Leo's thoughts, and said: "You don't need to be surprised or confused, I will indeed answer all the questions you want to know within the scope of my ability."

"Why?" Leo asked.

"It's very simple, because when you evolve to the current life form, we are already considered the same kind. In such a world, having one more kind will not change anything, but it is also good to have a companion." Mimir said calmly He replied, and then laughed again: "And after I answered your question, you don't have much reason to stay here. The longer you stay here, the more likely it will cause unpredictable changes in this world." , I don’t like things that are out of my control.”

Mimir's frankness made Leo feel like he didn't know what to say. He thought about it calmly, and quickly sorted out a few warm-up questions, and asked, "I just had a doubt after completing the evolution. After the psykers evolve to the ninth level of life form, will they suddenly possess a power beyond psychic power?"

"No." Mimir replied very positively: "Not only psykers, but any kind of person with extraordinary power will not produce new power during the evolution process. Master new powers through other methods." Then, he looked at Leo meaningfully, and said, "Did you master a new power just now?"

"No." Leo shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and said truthfully: "But I feel a new kind of power, which is very powerful, but there is a layer of distance from me, and I cannot control and use it. strength."

Mimir also showed a puzzled look after hearing this, and thought very seriously, and after a while, he said slowly: "In my knowledge, I have never heard of such a thing, if you and I Go back to the holy city, and cooperate with the instruments there, maybe we can research some clues."

Hearing this, Leo shook his head and rejected the proposal.

Mimir didn't force it, and then seemed to be relieved: "You don't have to worry about anything, although such a thing has never happened in the normal universe, but in this world, any strange things can happen, as long as you treat yourself It’s harmless, so there’s no need to worry too much about it.”

After listening to Mimir's persuasion, Leo didn't feel at ease. He temporarily put the matter aside, and when he had time to study it slowly, he asked the second question, saying: "Now Does the universe still exist?"

Mimir sighed, and said: "I also really want to know if it still exists, but judging from so many years of observation and exploration, our universe probably doesn't exist anymore."

"Did some disaster happen?" Leo asked again.

Mimir said in a deep voice: "Catastrophe? It can be said to be a disaster! And there is more than one." Then, he recalled and said: "I don't know the specific situation. At that time, I just knew that there was a universe with a higher latitude trying to invade In our universe, in order to deal with the invasion, the Supreme Council of the universe has created a forbidden ability, which can upgrade the universe for a short time and promote the evolution of all life forms in the universe. Some of us think that this plan is feasible, as long as Just follow the Supreme Council of the universe, but others think that this is too radical and will lead to the collapse of the universe, we should have a backup plan. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com In fact, not only the Earth Federation, but also other Cosmic civilizations are almost divided into two factions, and then war broke out."

Having said that, Mimir suddenly fell silent and did not continue talking.

"What happened next?" Leo asked after waiting for a while.

Mimir continued: "While a war broke out in the universe because of ideas, we also formulated a refuge plan, one of which was to transfer the entire civilization to the subspace, just like it is now. However, some people think that this is not the case. Appropriate, because when the normal universe collapses, the subspace will definitely be affected, and there are too many unknown dangers in the subspace, and there are too few subspace planes that can survive for human beings, and people who have the same plan are not only There is only one cosmic civilization in the Earth Federation, and other civilizations have similar plans, and at that time they will fight each other to compete for the scarce subspace resources, which may eventually lead to the end of both."

Leo said in a deep voice: "So there is another evacuation plan."

Mimir nodded, then looked at Leo with a complicated expression, and said, "You are probably the only result of the second plan and the only survivor."
