- Chapter 395 - Prepare for combat training! Embedded symbiote armor! The wizard is done!
Accompanied by a muffled sound, the sealed space capsule gradually unfolded, and the weak Paul walked out while holding the inner wall.
He looked at the scientific research team of the giant company outside with a solemn and stunned look, and couldn’t help asking: “How is the situation? Am I qualified?”
Paul didn’t know whether every candidate who took the test would be drained of all his energy during the process like him, or whether he was the only exception.
Just testing a psychic talent can make him suffer.
Facing Paul’s question, Dr. Ariel pondered for a moment, and then answered him: “I don’t know whether I should congratulate you or worry about you.”
“After observing the data just now, your psychic fluctuation peak far exceeds all personnel records of the Terran Federation’s Ghost Project. Even among the Protoss, it is extremely rare.”
Ariel Hansen presented the data chart to Paul for review, and said: “To be honest, I have begun to doubt whether you belong to the human species.”
The emergence of this psychic fluctuation beyond the limit of human beings may be related to Paul’s innate supernatural talent, or perhaps the spices have strengthened Paul’s foundation for carrying psychic power.
This makes Paul already have a foundation similar to “cleansing the meridians and cutting the marrow”, so when testing psychic fluctuations, he shows a level comparable to the inner courtyard disciples of the Protoss.
In short, Paul Atreides is now an extremely unique warrior in the Universal Corporation, and his physical potential can no longer be measured by the values of ordinary people.
“It’s incredible. Whether it’s spices or terazine, your body has strong adaptability.”
Ott Cunningham looked Paul up and down, as if he was admiring a rare treasure. Since Paul has an extraordinary talent in psychic transformation.
It will not be long before the first psychic warrior of the Universal Corporation can be trained.
“So, I will be busy in the future.”
Paul smiled helplessly. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Those who often go out to do business are always the best salesmen in the team.
No one would be willing to put a gold medal salesman in the management who can be a brain.
Especially an irreplaceable psychic warrior like him.
“From your psychic potential, I guess only Blade Queen Kerrigan can compare with you.”
Dr. Ariel said truthfully.
“Next, start some simple psychic mastery to see how good you are at psychic.”
After that, under the leadership of Ariel and Ott, Paul came to another laboratory.
This laboratory has a large number of sealed transparent compartments, each of which contains a psychic who is undergoing various tests.
Some psychics can make their bodies disappear without using optical camouflage, just like the Blood Hunter.
Some psychics can cause objects to vibrate by releasing psychic waves, and some can even shatter bulletproof glass.
These psychics are ghost agents specially borrowed by the Universal Corporation from Tosh. They have already mastered various moves to perfection, so they can perform many magical performances.
Some more powerful psychics can even use the weapons and equipment of the Protoss.
The test that Paul is going to take this time is to try to use a psychic light blade used by the Tal’darim Protoss.
If Paul can pass this experiment, the Universal Corporation will have the hope of improving the psychic device to quickly take over and use the Protoss’ technology and weapons.
“Start now!”
With Ott’s order, Paul, who has recovered his energy, tries to awaken the psychic power in his body.
As expected, the psychic blade he was holding suddenly emitted a dazzling light, which was the energy of the nearly one-meter-long psychic blade.
“It’s done!”
Seeing this scene, Ariel breathed a sigh of relief. Ordinary humans can only activate the psychic light blade for a short time, but this time Paul performed quite persistently.
It seems that as long as they can control strong enough psychic energy, humans can also use these Protoss weapons perfectly.
Paul tried to swing the psychic blade, and the high-temperature light blade made a popping sound in the air.
This is the most commonly used melee weapon of the Protoss psychic warriors. Its sharpness and lethality mainly depend on the user’s own psychic power.
In the hands of a powerful psychic, the psychic blade can be almost indestructible.
“Now let’s test the power.”
As Dr. Ariel said, he activated the switch device and released several sentinel robots and small kaiju beasts as Paul’s sparring targets.
These sentinel robots are mainly composed of high-density alloy materials, and the improved Kaiju is almost as strong as the Zerg’s Thunder Beast.
Using ordinary metal knives to chop will definitely not have any effect. Only by testing these two units can we better observe the destructiveness of the psychic battle blade.
“Begin!”
As Ariel’s voice fell, Paul took a deep breath, and then suddenly raised his hand and cut down the knife, and the light blade flashed dozens of scratches in the compartment.
The next second, the Kaiju and the sentinel robots were all shattered. Paul felt almost no resistance while cutting the alloy and flesh.
This subtle touch is like drawing a knife to cut water.
Looking at the fragments of tissue flowing on the ground, Paul realized that the sharpness of the psychic blade was far beyond his imagination. The upper limit of this thing was probably higher than that of a lightsaber.
As long as the user’s spiritual energy is strong enough, he can kill anything!
“Very good. It seems that humans can also use the technological weapons of the protoss. Now we just need to further promote and develop psychic devices.”
Paul’s outstanding performance made all the scientific research team members present feel excited. The psychic power has unparalleled development potential.
Perhaps this is the key for global giants to usher in a new era of science and technology!
While the scientific research directors were congratulating each other, Paul discovered that after the attack, the psychic light blade in his hand began to twist and deform uncontrollably.
Although his psychic power has not yet begun to decay, after this cutting, the strength of the psychic blade is obviously not as strong as before.
This shows that although Paul already possesses powerful psychic talents, his more sophisticated control skills are still very immature and rough.
Psychic power is the same as magic. Talent is not enough. Drilling and honing skills are also crucial.
At this moment, Paul was just a rookie who had just awakened his psychic powers. Of course, his mastery of psychic powers could not be compared to that of the Star Spirits.
“Don’t worry Paul, with your natural ability and time to train, you can quickly close this insignificant gap.”
Ott Cunningham spoke.
Skills and experience can be slowly honed, but talent cannot be cultivated, so in the eyes of Otto and other supervisors, this is not the same thing at all.
Paul nodded. Next, he needed to train a little more on the basic use of psychic energy. I believe he will be able to fully master the psychic blade soon.
In the next few days, Paul stayed in the Science Hub Department, and with the guidance of ghost agents and the help of various scientific research supervisors, he trained his own psychic abilities in a targeted manner.
Try to master as many spiritual mysteries as possible before the decisive battle begins.
It’s just that this process is not smooth. The reason why the psychic warriors of the Protoss are able to use psychic powers freely is inseparable from their hundreds of years of training day and night.
Even though Paul has extraordinary psychic talent, he does not have more professional guidance, so the training progress is not very fast.
If you want to go one step further, you have to ask the templars of the Durham Protoss to come to guide and impart experience.
At this moment, Paul had killed dozens of cloned thunder beasts and flying dragons in the training ground. He didn’t stop to rest until the psychic blade in his hand deformed and twisted again.
When Paul first fought against the Zerg more than a year ago, he could only fight against bugs like Mantis, but now, he can already fight against advanced bugs like Thunder Beast and Flying Dragon.
Check out the correct version one by one!
Although there is still a big gap compared to Durham’s Templars, the distance between the two sides is constantly decreasing as time goes by.
“Now that I am exhausted, I can only keep up with the ordinary protoss psychic warriors, but I am far behind the high-level templar warriors.”
Paul made a simple assessment of his own strength. If he only used psychic powers, he would be considered an ordinary fish.
As of now, there are two main ways Paul uses psychic energy. The first is the psychic blade, and the second is the very common psychic shield.
Ordinary psychic warriors can only do this most basic attack and defense.
A master like Templar who can use his hands to rub the storm and directly enlarge his moves is not what Paul can care about at this moment.
In fact, at this stage, Paul is having difficulty maintaining the psychic shield throughout the entire process. He can only release psychic energy in a short period of time to form a shield for defense.
There is no way, human civilization still has too little research on psychic energy. If we don’t get the help of the stars, then humans can only explore the psychic system from scratch.
In order to help Paul make up for his own combat shortcomings, the global giant company specially combined the genetic characteristics of the Zerg and special materials to develop a symbiote weapon technology.
After Paul finished his daily training, Ott Cunningham took him to another laboratory, where he saw a brand new set of embedded symbiote armor!
“Paul, you’re lucky. This is the symbiote technology developed specifically for you by Director Quentin Shah.”
Seeing Paul’s arrival, Qianjihu walked up and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: “We used the 3.0 version of the seed bomb to get a brand new batch of deformed metal.”
“Then we use these deformed metals and combine them with the Zerg’s genetic program to create the only set of symbiote armor!”
“After our many rounds of testing, this set of symbiotic armor can not only coexist perfectly with human tissue cells, but can also combine with it to form new biological forms.”
While Qianjihu was chattering about the armor to Paul, he also called up various experimental videos for Paul to watch so that he could have a more detailed understanding of this technology.
“Thanks to the perfect functionality of the deformed metal, this set of symbiote armor can change into any form according to your instructions. In addition, the deformed metal can also be used as a carrier to store ball lightning energy.”
“From now on, you can fire ball lightning from your body without using a wrist device. The advantages of this are faster firing speed and more concealed action.”
Faced with this successive good news, Paul suddenly felt as if he was in a dream. So, he could really rub the thunder with his hands and become a melee mage!
Before this, Paul had to wear heavy power armor to perform various complex flying and rubbing thunder operations, which was very inconvenient.
Now with this set of embedded symbiote armor, Paul’s skills will be faster than before, his movements will be lighter and more deadly.
“The only trouble now is that we can’t implant the generators of the psychic blade and psychic shield into the symbiote armor very well.”
“This needs to wait until we have mastered more knowledge of the psychic energy of the Protoss before we can further improve it.”
Qiansihu explained the various characteristics of the symbiote armor in an orderly manner. After listening, Paul nodded repeatedly. These problems were not a big deal to him at all.
He was quite satisfied with the performance of the symbiote armor to this extent. It was better than wearing MarkX power armor every day.
Immediately, Paul reached out to the symbiote armor. This silver-white half-metal, half-bone suit seemed to have recognized the genetic information of its owner.
Instantly, the suit transformed into liquid metal and quickly adsorbed onto Paul’s body, with part of it penetrating into the bones of his body and part of it condensing into metal armor on the outside.
This symbiote armor is countless times lighter than any power armor Paul had worn before, and it does not hinder his movements at all.
This wonderful feeling of the human body and armor being one makes Paul feel that he is not wearing armor, but a second layer of skin.
“It’s like a part of my body.” Paul showed a look of surprise, as if he was admiring an extremely beloved treasure.
“Of course, after all, the deformed metal material that makes up this symbiote armor contains your genetic information, which is mainly used to identify the identity of the host.”
“It can be said that this is an armor specially made for you alone. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a part of your body.”
Qiansihu patiently explained to Paul.
Paul nodded thoughtfully. With this set of symbiote armor, he would be more confident in dealing with the Blade Queen and welcoming the upcoming final battle!
…
On the other side, as the countdown to the final battle approached, the front-line base defense system of the Universal Corporation has been officially completed.
Through the reconnaissance of AI drones, the giant company has observed a large number of Zerg fleets swarming towards this side.
On the eve of the decisive battle, the headquarters of the Universal Base held another meeting, and the executives of various departments and the generals on the front line discussed various details of the action and other backup plans.
David Martinez, the person in charge of the front-line military operations, spoke first:
“According to the reconnaissance on the front line, the Zerg army is coming fiercely this time, and it is not ruled out that they will break through the front-line defense line in one go.”
“So we have to be mentally prepared in advance, and even make the worst plan.”
David’s tone was very solemn. Obviously, the number and scale of the main force sent by the Zerg this time reached an unprecedented level.
Even if the giant corporations in the universe had built a defense system in advance, it might not be able to withstand the fierce attacks of the Zerg in the first few rounds.
