The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 47 Awakening Abnormality
Jiang Hui thought she had misheard. Grade A?!

Seeing that Jiang Hui still seemed unconvinced, the other person frowned slightly, as if displeased by her questioning of their professionalism, and said, "According to your brainwave data, your mental strength level threshold has reached at least Grade A. I mean at least..."

What does "at least" mean? Isn't it said that the technology of the future world is very advanced? Why is there a quantifier like "at least"? It made her a little uneasy.

Is Grade A good enough? Grade A is good enough, isn't it?!

Please, please don't let it rise any higher. This wasn't Jiang Hui being sentimental; it was her genuine wish. She had once seen a post on a youth forum about how much interstellar people needed people with high mental strength thresholds.

So high that almost all powerful forces welcome such talents.

High-level Awakened individuals have no chance of pursuing ordinary jobs; almost all of them are recruited into the military. Those who are not recruited by the military eventually fall into the hands of various major powers, either engaging in high-psychic-power tasks or being cultivated as talent reserves.

If the original owner's second awakening was only at this level, Jiang Hui probably wouldn't be here planning her future. She would definitely have been treated as a key talent cultivated within her clan, given the most resources, and nurtured with intensive training before ultimately being transferred to the military, becoming someone like her parents.

This might be the future the original owner of this body longed for, but it wasn't Jiang Hui's. She hadn't even considered that possibility; her mind was still preoccupied with how she could possibly live a life of leisure in this technologically advanced interstellar world.

Jiang Hui vaguely felt that the path she had envisioned was starting to drift further and further away from her, and was hurtling in a direction she could no longer control.

Therapist Michael probably interpreted the disbelief on her face as overwhelming joy, and softened his serious expression as he spoke to Jiang Hui.

"Normally, those who are not fully awakened will not experience significant fluctuations in mental energy between their second and third awakenings. Did you encounter anything before your second awakening, or..."

"Ms. Jiang, is your second awakening normal?"

Jiang Hui really didn't know. When she tried to recall her memories related to the original owner of this body, they were quite vague, making the process of recalling them extremely difficult.

She tried hard to think, but in the end she only managed to come up with some superficial memories.

“Yes, Healer Michael, I don’t recall anything unusual. If I had to say, it’s that my second awakening happened earlier than expected for some reason. And the duration of the second awakening was also relatively short, only about two… star hours.”

Since the original owner of this body didn't have any reliable adult elders around, no one told her about the precautions for awakening her spiritual power. Jiang Hui's common sense mostly came from the original owner's memories, so she naturally knew even less about the situation and didn't think anything was unusual.

But this is already very unusual.

Before humanity migrated to interstellar space and lived on their home planet, it is said that people originally had no concept of spiritual power. They only had a vague understanding of it, but could not explain what it was.

Humanity fully discovered mental power during the early stages of its exploration of outer space. However, at that time, most people didn't understand it, so humanity conducted extensive research and development on the body to explore it, eventually determining what mental power truly was.

When humanity fully understands mental power and learns how to use it, we will have truly entered the interstellar age.

Through generations of evolution and genetic development, interstellar beings have become increasingly adept at using their brains and mental abilities, and have even discovered the patterns in the development of human mental power. This period of mental power development is also known as the mental power awakening period.

It is said that every interstellar person must go through the first three periods of spiritual awakening, which are generally completed between the ages of 5 and 25.

After the first three awakening periods, the number of subsequent awakening periods is countless, and not everyone experiences them. These awakening periods often extend based on an individual's experiences, and are therefore further classified as the super-awakening period of spiritual power.

Generally, children experience their first awakening between the ages of 5 and 9. The original owner of this body awakened B-level mental power at the age of 7. This was neither early nor late, and the initial mental power assessment level was considered excellent.

The second awakening usually occurs between 9 and 13 stars after the first awakening, meaning that Jiang Hui's second awakening should be at least at the age of 15.

However, she experienced a second awakening before she even turned 15, at just over 14 years old. This was a highly unusual sign for the original owner of this body.

This most likely means that the brain's magnetic field is abnormal, affecting brain waves and thus stimulating the development of mental abilities.

Abnormal brain magnetic fields can be caused by many factors, but they are definitely not natural abnormalities. Because the brains of interstellar beings have long since developed extremely stable magnetic fields to adapt to the interstellar environment, they must be influenced by external factors.

Furthermore, there are explicit regulations in the interstellar community that require those who have not fully awakened to undergo annual brain and brainwave testing at designated hospitals to rule out any abnormalities in their mental development.

Therefore, the abnormality in the original body's brain magnetic field must have appeared in a relatively short period of time before the second awakening.

In fact, the therapist Michael could also see from the residual brain data that Ms. Jiang seemed to have been affected by some kind of radiation during her second awakening, which led to the abnormal awakening.

This is why the original owner awakened a second time earlier, and why the spiritual power of the second awakening was exactly the same as that of the first awakening.

In fact, she did not successfully undergo a second awakening; it was merely a period of pseudo-awakening.

This explains why Jiang Hui's mental strength suddenly increased to A-level. It's likely that during the period when her brain was injured, she unintentionally stimulated the magnetic field of her brain, which then pushed this unfinished second awakening forward, helping her to complete it completely.

"However, Ms. Jiang, the brain damage you suffered last time was quite severe; even the wavelength of your brainwaves has changed slightly."

Jiang Hui's expression changed upon hearing this. Not because of the other person's comment about severe brain damage, but because the other person said her brainwaves were abnormal.

If I had to put it simply, she wasn't "severely damaged brain and had abnormal brainwaves." The original owner of this body suffered brain damage that caused her brainwaves to disappear completely, leading to her immediate death. This allowed Jiang Hui to inhabit this body and seamlessly replace her brainwaves.

Interstellar technology can even detect this brainwave wavelength. Does that mean she and the original owner aren't the same person, but two completely different souls with different brainwaves? Will that also be discovered?
