Chapter 231, Upgrade! Level 6 Psychic Power, the Storm Is Coming!

[Event activated: Storm is coming]

[The cult that believes in the original angry owl, at the moment of its destruction, has erupted in its final madness. ]

[They are about to summon the owl god who has become a member of the abyss evil god regardless of everything. ]

[The most heroic warriors under your command are trying their best to prevent all this from happening, and your next actions will also have a decisive impact. ]

…

Looking at the news that appeared on the [Event] interface, Gu Hang took a deep breath and decided to go to the north in person.

Of course, he knew the situation of the Polar Industrial City, and the command center was always reporting information to him.

He knew that the city could be said to have planted the flag of the alliance now; he also knew that his most elite group of warriors had gone down to the underground space of the so-called C7 area and started a firefight with the cultists.

He knew that the alliance, under Grit's proposal this time, although the cost was relatively high, instantly mobilized a huge force and put all the cutting-edge forces at hand into the same thing.

But at present, it seems that this choice is correct. The alliance made a full-strength attack, showing its powerful strength. It carried out a quick raid in a way that the local forces of the Angry Owl Star could not imagine. It really completely subdued the Polar Industrial Group, and the entire northern border would be within easy reach.

Although it would take a long time to pacify other areas and rebuild the alliance's own ruling system. However, in general, it would definitely take less time than it took to recover the eastern provinces.

What's more, this action also has a great value, which is to wipe out the Angry Owl Sect, which is a thorn in Gu Hang's heart.

Gu Hang knows that things may not always go so smoothly, and he is also prepared for accidents, and even has corresponding remedial measures for the backhand.

And he himself is one of these "remedial measures".

He has indeed been busy with government affairs for a long time. But this does not affect the fact that he is the most powerful psychic in the entire alliance.

The identity of a level 5 psychic can already allow him to use psychic means to fatally control opponents at the level of the Orc Fleet Commander.

Not to mention, he has long accumulated enough experience to upgrade to a level 6 psychic.

However, before that, he had not upgraded.

It takes too many grace points to upgrade from LV5 to LV6

LV5 only needs 500 grace points, but upgrading to LV6 requires 2,000 points.

This is an expensive price. Even if he had earned the 10,000 or 20,000 grace points before, he was not in a hurry to upgrade.

Upgrades can be made at any time as long as there are grace points; on the contrary, every minute and every second of the development of the territory is precious golden time.

Thinking that there would be no subsequent battles that required him to personally fight, he did not make this choice.

The two thousand grace points saved can be used to draw technology, expand the army, conduct multiple political commissar training to fill his government departments, expand the demon hunter team, and serve as the main force of anti-corruption actions...

His own personal strength is not so urgent.

But now, it seems to be the time.

On the Feng Falcon flying to the north, Gu Hang used the grace points left over from the past two months to upgrade his personal level to LV6.

First of all, the physical and spiritual attributes each increased a little.

Secondly, Gu Hang once again chose the spiritual direction as the specialization for this upgrade among the options.

And this provides him with a brand new ability: Iron Will.

[Iron Will: You will have a will as strong as steel. From now on, you will not feel tired, shaken, or afraid before you are on the verge of the limit; your emotions will become more stable and strong; the effects of attacks on the spirit and soul will be reduced to a certain extent depending on the spiritual attribute gap between the other party and you. When the spirituality of the caster is more than 4 points lower than your spirituality, all such effects will be invalid; when the spirituality of the caster is more than 4 points higher than yours, the reduction effect is fixed at 35%. You gain 1 additional spiritual attribute. ]

Overall, Gu Hang is quite satisfied with this newly acquired feature.

There is nothing wrong with defensive psychic power.

He has a protective aura that can be used to resist physical and energy attacks. And this is just right for dealing with spiritual damage. The two are complementary.

Not to mention, the extra resistance to normal fatigue, shaken, fear and other negative states can also bring him a lot of help in non-combat situations.

As for the extra spirituality, it was expected.

So far, his personal attribute panel has become like this:

[Hero: Gu Hang (camp leader), LV6, insufficient experience to upgrade]

[Constitution: 11, Spirituality: 22]

[Features: Psychic Caster, Governor of the Wrathful Owl Star, Enemy of the Storm]

[Talents: Body Protection Aura, Advanced Telekinesis Control, Mind Manipulation, Iron Will]

The psychic attribute of 22 points is two points higher than before he upgraded, which is equivalent to 2.25 times at level 5.

There is no doubt that his strength has been greatly enhanced again.

After a test, he felt that if he met the orc fleet commander he encountered in the previous star war again, he might not need the cooperation of others. He alone could use psychic energy to defeat his will, or use psychic energy to tear his body from the inside of the heavy armor.

…

With this new power, Gu Hang arrived at the Polar Industrial City a few hours later.

The speed of the Wind Falcon was once again demonstrated. The distance of 5,400 kilometers was reached in just two hours.

This is actually more than double the regular cruising speed of the Wind Falcon, flying at a speed of Mach 2.5 throughout the entire journey.

In fact, it is rare. Normally, a wind falcon would not fly so desperately at more than twice the speed of sound for such a long time. After all, it is not a single fighter, but an air combat craft weighing several hundred tons. The anti-gravity engine running at full speed consumes terrible energy after running for such a long time.

However, the Alliance is still very wealthy on the small amount of energy it uses. The waste energy storm collection plant and energy compression plant built in the High Tower Province can easily produce super energy crystal blocks. This kind of advanced energy is more than enough for use on the Wind Falcon, enough to support the consumption of long-distance full-power flight.

It’s just that the mechanical structure of the Wind Falcon itself may be a little weak. After flying like this a few times, I'm afraid I'll have to go back for major repairs.

But soldiers are expensive and fast, so they can't care about that much. Just go back and repair.

The elite special forces on duty outside the C7 area, which had been captured and sealed off, were very surprised when they saw the governor arriving.

They didn't know that the Governor was coming.

In fact, when Gu Hang set out, of course he sent a message to the frontline command post.

When Thaddeus knew he was coming, he strongly opposed it. With such an important status as the Governor, he should not be on the front line in person. If anything goes wrong, it will be unacceptable to the alliance.

However, it was obviously impossible for him to persuade Gu Hang.

The next best thing he could do was pass the news to the leader of the more front-line Martins Chapter.

However, the message failed to get through.

Martins has lost contact.

Then, Thaddeus tried to pass the news to the 31st Airborne Division, asking them to go to Area C7 as soon as possible to inform them of the Governor's arrival.

However, it takes time for news to circulate. The 31st Airborne Division had just received the news, and Gu Hang had already arrived before the messenger they sent arrived.

The special operations elites guarding outside were surprised, but their first reaction was to salute.

Most of the members of the special operations team were selected during the selection of the Phoenix Space Marines.

Every one of them had met the Governor at the training place. They were even convinced that the miraculous changes that had happened to them had a lot to do with the Governor. In fact, a considerable proportion of them had attended classes at Xifeng Zhongsi Academy, and they were extremely loyal to the Governor.

After Gu Hang returned the courtesy, he summoned the person in charge of the scene, a major officer from the 10th Special Forces Brigade, to inquire about the current situation.

Gu Hang learned that Martins had been leading the team down for about two and a half hours. In addition to the twelve space warriors, there were also thirty-one battle nuns, twenty demon hunters, and twenty special warfare elites, a total of more than eighty people.

That's pretty much the limit. The entrance is just a 6×6 hole, and after preliminary exploration, it was found that the terrain below is narrow and there are various underground passages connecting many rooms. No matter how many people go down, it will be difficult to deploy troops. On the contrary, an elite small-scale team is more suitable.

It stands to reason that with such a scale, it is enough.

However, no news came back from them for a long time.

The major felt something was wrong, so two hours ago, he sent another team down to investigate the situation.

Before this team set off, the order they received was that no matter what, as long as they saw Chapter Leader Martins, they should come up and report the situation as soon as possible.

However, they never came back.

This made Mr. Major very anxious.

Then, the major would send another team down every once in a while.

He had already sent more than a hundred people inside, but no one came out.

"...Mr. Governor, this is the current situation."

The major's forehead was beaded with sweat.

He could tell that the governor seemed to be going down in person again. He knew that his identity was not enough, but he still gritted his teeth and persuaded: "Mr. Governor, I will lead a team to go down and have a look again. As long as I don't die inside, I will make sure to bring the news back! You don't want to I went on an adventure myself, the alliance cannot live without you..."

Gu Hang raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

He closed his eyes tightly, feeling the surging spiritual power below.

Something terrible is growing there.

This is not a complete pregnancy, but more like the madness before death.

If left alone, the damage would actually be relatively limited—for the entire planet, that is.

That should form an evil god incarnation that can exist for about a week; it can set off a mighty storm that sweeps across the entire northern territory.

The Polar Industrial City will definitely be destroyed because of this, and most people will not survive; except for the Polar Industrial City, 60% to 70% of the entire northern population of more than two million people may die directly or indirectly from this.

In total, this is a population loss of approximately two million.

Switching to the ruthless mode of a ruler, Gu Hang could calculate that this was not a completely unacceptable number.

It is true that this will almost destroy the value of the North, but after a week, the disaster will be over and will not continue to spread.

However, this was the last, the worst, the worst outcome.

Gu Hang believed that the situation was far from that point.

Even if it really came to that point, he would have to pull the people below out and withdraw his troops.

He was sure of this.

Because he could feel that in the stormy sea of ​​psychic energy below, nearly two hundred life fires were still burning.

That was the evidence that his warriors were still fighting.

Gu Hang opened his eyes and said to the major, "I'm going down."

After that, he floated forward.

Of course, the major couldn't stop him.

And Gu Hang didn't leave any explanation.

There was no need.

He would not be unable to come out, he had strong confidence in this.

...

After entering from the underground entrance, Gu Hang floated in the corridor.

He saw many corpses, but they were all cultists.

Obviously, when the Space Marines led the team to break in, these cultists put up a tenacious but useless resistance.

The warriors of the Alliance advanced all the way, invincible.

As Gu Hang was moving forward along this path, he felt as if he was at the seaside, constantly walking into the depths of the sea. With every step he took, he felt the power of psychic energy become stronger.

The manic power from the abyss, like a real storm, washed Gu Hang's spirit madly.

But under the protection of the [Iron Will] he had just obtained, these powers did not have any substantial impact on him.

At the same time, he soon saw the first member of the alliance.

They were several special warfare elites, lying around the corridor, breathing rapidly and unconscious.

After a simple check, Gu Hang judged that their consciousness seemed to have entered a strange area.

They seemed to be fighting fiercely, their heartbeats were fast, and their muscles were still twitching involuntarily, but they did not wake up.

If he used the ability of [Mind Control], Gu Hang could wake them up from this strange state.

But after thinking about it, he did not do so.

He continued to float forward and saw more alliance fighters.

Until he arrived at the most empty underground space.

In the center of this space, there were densely packed corpses, forming a circle around an old man whose clothes were very similar to those of the cult high priest Trikao who had met in Fuxing City.

The old man was also dead.

Under these corpses was a blue-white, rapidly flashing chaotic eight-pointed star array.

At the same time, Gu Hang also saw the figures of Martins, Grit, the demon hunter, and dozens of special combat elites.

They stood, closed their eyes, and trembled slightly; their heartbeats were fast and their breathing was rapid, just like the warriors found earlier.

At this point, Gu Hang could still conduct a large-scale mental intervention to wake them all up.

But he still didn't do it.

He probably knew what had happened.

He should have fallen into the same state as them when he entered the most violent area covered by the sea of ​​psychic energy. But his strong spirituality and the blessing of [Iron Will] allowed him to avoid that situation.

However, he had to take the initiative to enter it.
