Chapter 287: Chapter 116 The 14th Legion’s Warning, Dusk’s Spiritual Ability Device_2

”Although the transport distance is even farther than the Star Gate, correspondingly, the consumption is the same, and at such a distance, Dusk cannot support fleet-sized transport.”

Chen Ming still had no understanding of this equipment, and in the uncertain situation, he chose to believe the officer’s explanation.

”But I remember Dusk has issues when coming into contact with things like Spiritual Stones, which are related to spiritual energy. Wouldn’t there be even more problems when contacting this kind of spiritual energy device?”

”You only know part of it.”

The officer directly pointed out the obvious errors in Chen Ming’s words and explained to him: ”Dusk indeed will be affected by substances like Spiritual Stones, which objectively continuously emit spiritual energy fluctuations externally, but this has nothing to do with spiritual energy devices.”

”Although the existence of spiritual energy is indeed difficult for Dusk to comprehend, and it’s indeed not easy for them to come into contact with, this doesn’t completely prevent Dusk from accessing spiritual energy.”

”As long as adequate protective measures are taken, even a child can safely contact things related to spiritual energy.”

”Moreover, the device that Dusk just sent off is most likely not developed by themselves but found from another civilization’s ruins.”

”This eliminates most of the problems in their research.”

The officer suddenly realized something and asked, ”Do you know the civilization I’m talking about?”

”I know this.”

Memories of the Mechanical Race that Chen Ming had encountered on Rimu Star, the Mind Pulse Generator, flashed through his mind.

And the planet with numerous Mechanical Race buildings found when Refraction was sent out earlier.

The Mechanical Race is one of the relics of this civilization.

”They left various ruins in many Star Realms, leading to the flourishing of the Era of Expansion, until the successive appearances of Dusk and the Mechanical Race brought us into stagnation.”

The officer nodded slightly and said, ”Good that you know.”

”Another civilization has extremely deep mastery and research in mechanical technology, biological technology, and spiritual energy technology.”

”So it’s not surprising at all that Dusk finds any spiritual energy-related devices from this civilization’s legacy.”

”And for a device related to spiritual energy, risking great danger to forcibly transport it into Dusk’s territory suggests that Dusk is very urgent about it.”

”If it were really for Dusk’s own needs, there’s no need for emergency transport at all, so this device must be specifically targeted at you.”

Chen Ming was still somewhat uncertain at this time and asked, ”Are you one hundred percent sure that Dusk is targeting me? Could it be that Dusk found some facility like a spiritual energy research institute left by that civilization elsewhere? Needing this device?”

”No, because we’ve already observed the direction of their transported equipment, and it’s right here.”

”Alright then, I have nothing more to say.”

Extraordinary distances on a cosmic scale, distances even the Star Gate cannot directly transmit.

In such a situation, the direction of transporting something must be precisely accurate.

So since the direction has been confirmed, and there is a Chen Ming in that direction, the possibility that Dusk just happened to have a discovery in this direction is virtually zero.

Chen Ming accepted the fact that Dusk was about to make a move against him and said, ”So, why are you coming to me?”

The officer said, ”We hope you can provide us with more information about Dusk, to facilitate our quick implementation of a rescue for you.”

”We also know that obtaining intelligence from Dusk is very difficult, even dangerous, so we will help you acquire that intelligence while doing our best to ensure your safety.”

”Hmm... let me think about it.”

”Please make it quick.”

Taking advantage of this moment, Chen Ming quickly contacted the boss through Dawn to relay the information given by the Fourteenth Legion.

But just as Chen Ming was halfway through, the boss directly stopped him and said, ”I already know what you just mentioned.”

”They invited me to their joint conference before, and the conference content was all about you and Dusk.”

”Let’s put it this way, I can confirm that the information given by the Fourteenth Legion is true.”

Chen Ming went through the words of the Fourteenth Legion’s officer in his mind again and said, ”So I’m in trouble now?”

”Most likely, actually if you need, I can find a way to get you out directly, there’s no need for all the unnecessary stuff.”

”But if you’ve already been moved to somewhere under Dusk’s stricter supervision, the risk is too high, and I can’t help you.”

Old Wu spreads information quite fast indeed.

Chen Ming muttered a bit in his heart.

Then, half to himself and half to the boss, he said, ”This is the path I chose myself.”

”So from now on you have to walk it yourself, but I can also help you in some areas, so ask any questions you have now.”

”Okay, what’s the purpose of this device?”

”I don’t know, Dusk used encrypted information documents to store the data of this thing, only that much has been deciphered, it can only be confirmed that it is indeed a device related to spiritual energy.”

”From my experience, this device is probably just that type of thing, mostly having no effect on ordinary people, but for you, it could be a big trouble.”

”After all, Dusk has no reason to do unnecessary things at all, they must have their purpose for getting this device.”
