Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 828: Chapter 244: Public Opinion (Part 2)

”This isn’t like your requirement to use two different weapons simultaneously. Weapons can have some deviation, but armor absolutely cannot.”

”Don’t even think about mixing various spiritual energy materials, especially fused near the human body. That can be very problematic.”

Chen Ming couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked, ”So what happens if you do that?”

”I can’t tell you right now; it’s related to some deep aspects concerning spiritual energy. You’ll understand once your spiritual energy develops further.”

”Alright.”

Even though he didn’t find out what would happen, Chen Ming took the boss’s warning seriously.

After all, if it made the boss so serious, the consequences were undoubtedly not something he wanted to see.

After digesting the boss’s words for a moment, Chen Ming suddenly asked, ”If you want to use weapons and armor together, do they need to have the same nature?”

”Yes, but I think you can meet this requirement.”

”Indeed, these basics are no problem for me.”

Chen Ming ended the topic he had just brought up and switched to another subject, ”Boss, do you have any news on Hu Yi?”

”Hu Yi? Looking to cause him trouble, huh? I’ll let you know if I get any news.”

”Thanks, boss. There’s nothing else for now.”

”Alright, you go ahead. If you need anything, just ask me.”

After thanking again, Chen Ming ended the communication.

Wu An also put down the terminal.

But Hu Yi next to him didn’t quite understand what Wu An had just said, and asked, ”Is Chen Ming that well-off? Can he afford a full set of spiritual armor?”

Wu An gave Hu Yi an odd look, shook his head, and stayed silent.

”?”

While Hu Yi was puzzled.

Chen Ming also put down the terminal, pondering how to use his two spiritual weapons.

Actually, he could have one for the main body and one for the clonal body, but the main body can indirectly benefit from the enhancements of the spiritual weapons near the clonal body, so he’s a bit unsure about the reliability of this approach.

The separation of the main and clonal bodies holding spiritual weapons might lead to conflicts, which are still unclear.

If there’s conflict, then he can only choose one weapon, but if there’s none, then this becomes interesting.

But this idea is somewhat metaphysical, and Chen Ming doesn’t plan to consider it right now.

For now, he’s considering the allocation issue of the two spiritual weapons.

He’s actually leaning toward giving the clonal body the Bone Sword, since the clonal body needs to face more dangers.

A purely spiritual material constructed long sword with special characteristics, versus a spiritual revolver used purely as a buff machine, doesn’t even need much thought about which to equip for danger.

But if Chen Ming replaces the weapon for the clonal body, Bai Quan, who gave him this revolver, would surely notice.

It might not sit well with Bai Quan, so maybe find a way to make a replica for the clonal body?

While Chen Ming was contemplating these issues, suddenly there was a knock at his room door.

Bai Quan pushed the door open and said, ”Alright, I’ve sent out the news of our attack and arranged for some things to be done.”

”That Black Mist spirit ability user, I’ve mentioned he was killed by you so there won’t be lingering problems. Later, just directly question them.”

”By the way, you haven’t repaired your spaceship yet, have you?”

Chen Ming shook his head.

Since the Black Mist spirit ability user directly targeted him, and his room was at the edge of the spaceship.

Using crew quarters as ship armor has always been a fine tradition in the navy, and the Space Navy is no exception.

So in the recent battle, what got damaged was mostly the edge of the spaceship, which doesn’t affect its usage, so Chen Ming is not rushing to repair it.

Moreover, just recently, a new psychic arrived on the habitable planet nearby and was captured on surveillance.

Chen Ming’s attention immediately shifted there, and the spaceship remained as was.

Bai Quan nodded slightly and said, ”Then that’s good, keep it this way. We need to visit the nearest Star System that has the equipment for spaceships and do an assessment.”

”Hurry up; it’s best to get it done within a day, otherwise spiritual energy fluctuations might dissipate, making evidence preservation tricky.”

”There’s such a place?”

”If a psychic commits a crime and there’s no department to handle it, that wouldn’t be right. Generally, there’s at least one in each Star Zone.”

”Understood, but isn’t there indeed one per Star Zone?”

”Yes, psychics have a low awakening probability, but considering the Empire’s large population now, there are definitely not few. One per Star Zone is about right.”

”You don’t see many psychics usually because the Empire’s territory is vast, and which psychic would like to run to the Edge Star Realm? Isn’t the Prosperous Star Realm better?”

”You’re an exception since you awakened in the Edge Star Realm, and your spiritual energy requires you to stay in such places.”

”What about the boss?”

”Wu An is also an exception; his situation is... complicated.”

Bai Quan seemed reluctant to say more, and Chen Ming didn’t press further.

He had actually asked before why the boss came to such places, but the boss seemed unwilling to share.

There must be a story behind this, and Bai Quan is somehow involved too.

Since both parties involved don’t want to talk, Chen Ming definitely won’t poke into this sour spot.

”Where are the coordinates of that place you mentioned?”
