A Colossus rushes in at the start

Chapter 154 Psychic Creatures: The Strongest Respect

The Cosmic Union convened this information exchange meeting because of the matter of the Unified Civilization.

The information exchanged was naturally the information that each party collected and that was related to the unified civilization, thus constructing an information network that reconstructed the situation at that time.

"What are the results of your investigation?" Lu Shang asked.

One member civilization in the Cosmic Alliance replied: "No useful information was found. So far, the reason for the direct annihilation of the Unity Civilization remains unknown."

Lu Shang asked, "Couldn't we capture the escaping photons and rewind to information from before the time acceleration of the Guiyi Civilization? The Guiyi Civilization used this method before to collect historical information from the swarm."

From the other member civilization of the Cosmic Alliance, they replied: "We have already done so, but the information is still incomplete."

What Lu Shang thought of, these high-tech civilizations had thought of long ago.

Unfortunately, even so, there were no results.

"What's the reason?" Lu Shang asked, puzzled.

"It's possible that the negative quanta used to accelerate time leaked, and some of the photons carrying information disappeared," the civilization replied to Lu Shang's question.

After pondering for a while, Lu Shang asked with some worry, "Is it possible that some enemy we haven't yet defeated destroyed the Guiyi Civilization?"

The current Order Keeper civilization of the Cosmic Union expressed its opinion: "This possibility is almost non-existent. If such an enemy truly exists, the Unity Civilization would be powerless to fight back. Information leakage would be inevitable, and the existence of the Cosmic Union would be exposed. Whether it is us or your swarm, we would inevitably become the target of the next round of attacks."

"Neither you nor I have any reason to maintain this stable communication as we are now."

Since the enemy destroyed the Unity Civilization, there is no reason for them to let the Babel Swarm and the member civilizations of the Cosmic Union go.

If you can wipe out the Unity Civilization without making a sound, is it really that difficult to wipe out the many member civilizations of the Cosmic Union, as well as the Tower of Babel swarm?

After some discussion, Lu Shang, still without any results, sighed softly.

"That's settled then."

As the exchange ended, Lu Shang's thoughts drifted back to the last time he came into contact with the Guiyi Civilization.

The purpose of that contact was to complete the technology deal agreed upon with the Unity Civilization during the G Universe War.

The Hive is developing a psionic technology tree, while the Unified Civilization is developing several technologies that the Hive is interested in.

After completing that transaction, the Unity Civilization collectively entered a state of time acceleration, a conclusion drawn from some remaining traces.

Therefore, Lu Shang always felt that this matter had some secret connection with psionic energy.

While Lu Shang was pondering, Rabi, the mastermind in charge of the microcosm farm, established a connection with Lu Shang through the swarm network.

"The results are in!" Rabi excitedly reported to Lu Shang.

"result?"

Lu Shang didn't react for a moment.

Rabbi repeated, "Your psionic level has broken through."

Upon hearing this, Lu Shang nodded habitually, "Then let's begin the major cleanup."

Just as Lu Shang was about to give the order, he was interrupted by Rabbi.

"No, not this time, there's no need to do that," the rabbi quickly explained.

Lu Shang frowned as he listened, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "What do you mean by 'unnecessary'?"

"It's unnecessary in the literal sense," the rabbi replied.

Rabbi excitedly told Lu Shang, "From now on, with civilized beekeeping practices, there will be no need for the tedious and repetitive large-scale cleaning of the bee colonies!"

No need to clean up civilization anymore?

Lu Shang was now even more confused about what Rabbi was really up to.

……

High above, countless psionic creatures surrounded a psionic creature whose size was comparable to their own.

"Di Fantian, you are now all alone!"

In the standoff, someone shouted something that immediately caused a huge commotion.

"A lone wolf?" Di Fantian sneered to himself. Then, as if he had heard some earth-shattering joke, he burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, a true strongman never stoops to associating with the weak!"

Emperor Brahma's loud laughter only earned him the dislike of those surrounding him.

Among those surrounding them were many avengers burdened with countless blood debts and harboring an unforgivable grudge against Emperor Fantian for the extermination of their clans.

"Di Fantian, there's something I absolutely must ask you about."

"Why did you slaughter my entire Rhine clan back then? My Rhine clan has always kept to ourselves and never done anything to offend you. Why did you have to be so cruel?"

When questioned, Di Fantian gave a cold smile.

Why?

"Does the strong need a reason to slaughter the weak?"

"The law of this world is that the strong dominate the weak. The strong can take whatever they want from the weak without paying any price."

"You're not convinced? Then get stronger! Who told you to be so weak!"

These words thoroughly enraged all those who were surrounding them.

"There's no point in talking to a beast like that! Everyone, attack him and kill him!"

"Rush!"

Someone shouted, and the surrounding crowd surged towards Di Fantian like a tidal wave. All they wanted was to kill their enemy.

Seeing the Avengers who seemed to want to devour him, Emperor Brahma laughed even more wildly, as if he were truly experiencing extreme excitement.

"Hahaha! It doesn't matter how many come, they're just a bunch of insignificant ants!"

……

Beyond the microcosm, Lu Shang asked Rabbi, "So, what's the point of your 'unnecessary' statement?"

"That's the guy."

The rabbi pointed to Brahma, who was fighting the Avengers.

"That psionic creature that talks nonsense?" Lu Shang wondered, observing the psionic creature called Di Fantian from all angles through the swarm's perspective.

This is a creature that has reached level 68 in psionic power.

However, bee swarms are no longer a rare thing, as they have just completed a level 68 psionic power upgrade.

Lu Shang watched as Di Fantian fought until he was exhausted, yet he still fought the Avengers with great excitement. The battle continued until all the Avengers were dead, and only then did Di Fantian drag his battered and bruised body back to his palace.

"He didn't achieve the infinite breakthroughs you mentioned," Lu Shang said.

The rabbi replied, "Only not this time."

"What he did was deliberately create many enemies for himself, waiting for his enemies to come looking for revenge, and constantly breaking through his own spiritual energy level in the constant life-or-death battles."

Lu Shang was visibly taken aback, then asked, "So, you were the ones who started all of this?"

Rabbi admitted, "Yes, I added a stealth gene to the psionic creatures released into the breeding area."

"This recessive gene, once it becomes dominant, will give the psionic being an obsessive fanaticism for breaking through their own psionic level."

"This fanaticism will drive these psionic beings to try to break through their own psionic level by any means necessary."

Lu Shang frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Why do this? Wouldn't it be better to just make this gene dominantly expressed in all psionic beings?"

The rabbi replied, "We've already tried that, and it didn't work well. If every psionic being is willing to do anything to increase their psionic level, then who will reproduce? Who will grow food? Who will invent writing? Who will build large structures?"

"These things have nothing to do with increasing your psionic level, right?" Lu Shang asked.

Rabbi corrected, "No, it has a lot to do with it. Without these various kinds of psionic creatures, there would be no civilization, only a group of wild beasts that eat raw meat and drink blood."

"As you know, civilizations are far more likely to break through to higher levels of psionic power than beasts, because civilizations use their brains to think about complex things."

A psionic civilization that constantly strives for higher levels of development is indeed useful to the swarm.

Instead of focusing on increasing quantity to unleash stronger psychic power, the focus is on raising the level of psychic energy.

"Is there any guarantee that this won't grow crooked?" Lu Shang asked.

The rabbi replied, "Based on the data provided by the current experimental samples, there is no evidence of abnormal growth."

Rabbi then added, "However, a large number of repeated experiments are needed to confirm whether the bee colony's guess is correct."
