Chapter 111 Mental Link Interruption

Chapter 111 Mental Link Interruption

Hu Biao's higher-dimensional vision has been upgraded.

It wasn't that he had obtained some divine skill or secret manual, but rather that as his spiritual power increased, he naturally became able to see things he couldn't see before—the power of faith.

This may be because he himself relies on the power of faith to enhance his spiritual power. Since the two have the same origin, he can gradually see the power of faith gathering above his head, as well as the spiritual power gathering on others.

How come other people also have spiritual power?

Of course, they're fans!

Nowadays, fan systems are huge, and no matter how many fake fans are mixed in, there will always be one or two real fans.

However, once the fans' mental threads connect with these idols or self-important figures, they dissipate, because the fans lack the means to process such mental signals and are unable to perceive them.

Hu Biao's situation was different. Initially, Hu Biao didn't receive a large amount of spiritual power from ordinary fans; he received the most orthodox power of faith. Compared to spiritual power, the power of faith was purer and more devout. In addition, his own spiritual power was strong, and he possessed high-dimensional abilities. His body naturally absorbed and integrated that power of faith, which led to the initial evolution of his brain and the ability to hear the whispers around him. Later, Sowin accidentally found rituals related to the Third Civilization, and he also obtained the relics of the Third Civilization. Several factors collided, which led to who he is today.

For anyone else, it would be unthinkable.

So he hadn't paid attention to these things before, until his higher-dimensional vision was upgraded and he discovered Lord Ma.

This isn't really luck. After all, Ma Dugong is too high-profile. He used to be known as the "King of Pretending," but now that Hu Biaoming is here, he's not really a pretentious person. He just uses this to cultivate fans and harvest their spiritual power.

Other idols cannot perceive or utilize spiritual power, and any amount of spiritual power they possess will naturally dissipate. However, the spiritual wisps attached to Ma Dugong follow the same path as him, but with some differences. He is more like a relay converter of spiritual power.

Those invisible spiritual wisps, like billions of barely perceptible transparent threads, converged from all corners of the planet, gently coiling around Ma Dugong. They came from fervent fans on social media, from excited viewers of space exploration livestreams, and from followers who saw Ma Dugong as "humanity's hope for the future." These spiritual forces were weak, chaotic, and...

It is full of emotional impurities, but the quantity is so large that it is astonishing.

As for Lord Ma himself, he was like an invisible transit station. After those spiritual wisps entered his body, they did not dissipate naturally as ordinary people would. Instead, they were guided, compressed, and transformed by some mechanism, and then flowed to some unknown place in the void.

Hu Biao narrowed his eyes. Under his high-dimensional vision, he could clearly "see" the thread formed by countless spiritual threads.

An almost transparent river of light extended from above Ma Dugong's head, pierced through space, and disappeared into some distant place.

This is why Hu Biao was staring at Ma Dugong. Ma Dugong was very cautious and never had any real contact with those symbiotic monsters. Everything was done through that silver phone. Now, he had even destroyed the phone. Obviously, these guys had entered silent mode after he detonated Vikra.

"How cautious!"

He sighed softly. Caution is good, but is it useful?

He didn't need to know where these symbiotic freaks were; he only needed to know that these guys needed Ma Dugong as a relay to absorb mental energy. What he did was simple: cut off the function of Ma Dugong as a relay, without even needing to touch Ma Dugong.

If mental power is truly that important to these creatures, then since Lord Ma destroyed the silver telephone because of his silence, they will have to contact him through other means. Regardless of the method, it will definitely be someone among these monsters in charge of this matter; they can simply follow the clues to find him.

Even if he is not in a higher dimension, he is no longer an ordinary person. The fourth stage of the "Guide to Optimizing the Basic Consciousness Structure" grants him not only the physical interference ability of mental power, but also a deep understanding and control over the essence of consciousness.

This also allowed him to use some of the basic mental techniques described in the guide, such as mental link disruption.

Hu Biao took a deep breath, raised his finger, and pulled the office closer to Governor Ma's office, while the one located at the core of the spiritual dimension...

The crystalline seeds, swirling like miniature nebulae, suddenly burst forth with light several times brighter than usual.

An invisible thought emanated from between his brows, seeping into the area around Ma Dugong and mingling with the spiritual wisps that had gathered from all over the planet. However, this thought was also in a high-dimensional state. In this high-dimensional state, the invisible thought began to weave, slowly forming an invisible net that connected to Ma Dugong's own spiritual power. This net had only one function: one-way blocking.

As the large net was fully formed, Hu Biao caused it to exit the higher-dimensional state; the entire process lasted less than three seconds.

Three seconds later, the mental "net" returned to reality. In an instant, countless mental threads surging towards Ma Dugong collided with this net, began to accumulate and swirl, and then, losing their direction, naturally dissipated.

However, Governor Ma was completely unaware of anything unusual about all of this.

Almost at the instant this large net was formed.

A faint tremor came from below a small town in western West Eagle.

This is a small town in a mining area, and below the mining area is a huge space.

The vast space was a perfect sphere, over two hundred meters in diameter. On the dome, tens of thousands of crystal runes were arranged according to some ancient rule, emitting a faint blue glow. On the ground, countless unimaginably complex patterns intertwined to form a massive heptadecagonal magic circle, each node of which was inlaid with a fragment of faith crystal the size of a fingernail.

In the center of the spherical space, a huge crystal with a diameter of about three meters floats. The crystal is a perfect icosahedron, each face as smooth as a mirror, and it is slowly rotating, its surface flowing with a dreamlike pale golden light.

This is the main control unit of the Faith Pool, the only faith processing terminal left behind by the Third Civilization that still maintains complete functionality.

Below the crystal was a huge control console, which was bizarrely shaped and completely defied human engineering principles.

At this moment, rows of rune arrays on the control panel suddenly began to flash, and the light on the crystal also kept flashing.

Inside the spherical space, numerous lab technicians in white lab coats were startled by the sudden change. One of them quickly walked to the control panel, his finger rapidly tracing the rune arrays. Instantly, countless fluctuating data and patterns appeared on the crystal's surface—

"What happened?"

"Faith inflow — has decreased by thirty percent in the past thirty-seven seconds."

"Thirty percent? How could that be?"

"Based on data from all the mental energy receiving nodes around the world, we have lost an important link."

"Who?"

"Jack Ma!"
