The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 296 Enter
Jiang Hui didn't think too much about it because a small accident happened during her attempt.

In fact, Jiang Hui's mental strength is very strange. According to the standards of the interstellar world, her mental strength level and even her potential for advancement are very strong. Even if she is not at the very top level, she is definitely a high-potential awakener.

These incompletely awakened individuals typically possess highly aggressive and unstable mental energy. Therefore, when emotionally unstable, they may abuse the less controlled portion of their mental energy. If their nervous system goes berserk and out of control as a result, it could even have fundamental consequences. Consequently, the Empire conducts large-scale physical examinations annually for organizations of incompletely awakened individuals.

In theory, the earlier a person with high potential who has not yet fully awakened is discovered and guided, the safer they are and the easier it is for them to smoothly pass through their awakening period.

Jiang Hui's mental state was unusually stable and calm, except for the period when her mental strength was damaged when she first arrived in the interstellar space. She was completely unmoved by any external influences.

Even if she's an adult inside, isn't her mental strength a bit too stable? She'd even heard Huan Xian say that he could hardly read any mental energy field around her; even when it occasionally surfaced, it was mostly just pure, dissipated mental energy with no crucial emotional information.

But what Jiang Hui really found strange was not any of the above, but rather the amount of mental energy stored in her brain.

Actually, she had noticed it during the competition. She had only slightly suspected it before, but other reasons confused her, and after the competition ended, she was almost certain.

After the orienteering competition ended, their lives naturally returned to normal, and Jiang Hui resumed her 48-hour workday routine. However, after experiencing the long 36-star journey, Jiang Hui inevitably overate during her first time entering the space after the competition.

And this time it was fiercer than any before. Hmm... it seems like she always describes it like this. What if she gets even more ferocious next time? Will she get so hungry she'll eat herself?!

Anyway, she had no idea how long she had been eating. She was in a daze, and it felt like she was being sent out of the space while she was eating. When she woke up, the feeling of hunger seemed to have carried over into the real world as well. As a result, she couldn't help but eat and drink heartily after waking up, in order to alleviate the burning sensation in her internal organs.

She ate all the gifts brought by her teammates and classmates from R186, and still wasn't satisfied. In the end, because she couldn't leave the infirmary, she could only fall asleep hungry.

The result was that she was severely reprimanded by the medical staff who came to check her the next day, who said that she had eaten too much and too fast, which had damaged her stomach and almost made her need to have her stomach pumped...

Although her stomach was bloated and the therapist was quite fierce, her spirits lifted immediately afterward, and she felt like she was back to her pre-competition peak condition. It was as if all the medical diagnoses about mental exhaustion from her previous physical exam were fake; even her therapist was wondering how her mental strength could recover so quickly.

Of course, Jiang Hui just smiled and remained silent, but she had already made her judgment in her heart.

What she ate and drank in that mysterious space every day was not the illusion she once thought it was, but spiritual energy, a part of her spiritual power.

After excessive consumption and depletion in the physical world, she unconsciously replenishes herself within the spiritual space as soon as she enters it. The spiritual energy stored within the spiritual space is naturally the best tonic. This is why, whenever she is fully satisfied in the spiritual space, no matter how mentally exhausted she was before, she feels refreshed and full again upon waking.

This provides a reasonable explanation for how she could suddenly draw strength from nowhere when she was running out of steam during orienteering.

Jiang Hui couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she thought about it... If all the mental powers she used came from the mental space, then where did the power from that space come from?
The endless stream of food regenerating in the kitchen after each meal, the items conjured from thin air according to her analysis and imagination within the space, and the extra twenty-four hours… all of this was completely inexplicable. Could this mental space truly be a cheat code that creates something out of nothing?
Jiang Hui thought about it over and over but still felt that something was not right. However, with her current knowledge, she couldn't find any more clues, so she put the matter aside for the time being. In any case, it was another mystery that had been solved.

Based on the above deductions, she can basically determine that her mental energy reserves are far more than A+ or even S level, and may be higher or even beyond her imagination and cognition.

So... can anyone explain why, before she had even followed Stark's steps for more than a few minutes, she felt her mental energy being fiercely 'sucked' by the mental energy interception threshold device above her?

No, she hasn't even finished the steps yet. Is there something wrong with this thing?
Jiang Hui felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and then the darkness seemed to be affected by radio waves, with countless black and colored lines intertwining and shaking violently. Soon she regained her normal vision.

But the scene before me seemed to have changed somewhat.

—This is still in the mecha battle arena.

The cabin seemed to be the same cabin, but the view had become much wider. The bulkheads and components on both sides had disappeared, making it feel more like an unobstructed view. The workbench in front was still there, but it seemed to have become blurred as well, leaving only a large, still blank blue panel in front of me that remained unchanged.

No, it can't be said to be blank now.

Suddenly, something resembling a progress bar appeared on the right side of the blue screen, and then it advanced extremely quickly. Before Jiang Hui could even blink, a complex three-dimensional circular image appeared on the large screen, covered with many densely packed, indistinct dots and dotted lines.

Just then, the large screen on the left also changed, and compared to the previous unclear 3D image, the new appearance immediately attracted her attention. A complete 3D image of a mecha appeared on the large screen on the left, from top to bottom, from the overall shape to the smallest parts.

Jiang Hui recognized it at a glance. Wasn't this the low-level standard mech they were currently trying to pilot? So she had successfully connected to the mech? This... is the effect after connecting to and activating the mech?

She felt a sense of unreality and instinctively wanted to stand up and take a few steps forward to see what was happening, but the next moment she found herself unable to move. Her arms, legs, and even her entire body felt heavy, as if they weren't her own, unable to respond to any commands. She felt that the only flexible and controllable parts of her body were her head and eyes.
