Forty Millenniums of Cultivation Chapter 2383 - Modify the Brainwave Magnifier!

2383 Modify the Brainwave Magnifier!

“It’s the super brainwave magnifier!”

Long Yangjun said, “The Nepenthe believers have accommodated it to an excavator, making it mobile, before attaching countless enhancement coils to it. As long as it is connected to the energy factory, it will magnify their brainwaves by millions of times, giving them a chance to be heard by all the residents in the underground towns within a thousand kilometers. For the record, that thing is completely made by themselves and has absolutely nothing to do with me. I’m highly suspicious about its stability, too. It will likely explode the moment it is connected to the energy factory, won’t it?”

“That’s not important. What’s important is that—”

Scratching his chin, Li Yao said quickly, “Why does this thing look so familiar to me? I think I saw it from somewhere else before. Got it. We once dug out similar magical equipment from the Kunlun relic and the Nuwa wars.h.i.+p. It used to be the magnifying and interfering magical equipment in the primeval wars for the specialists of mental attacks of the Pangu Clan and the Nuwa Clan to boost their mental combat ability, right?”

“Exactly.”

Long Yangjun nodded her head. “According to the Nepenthe believers, it was taken off from the head of a gigantic corpse deep inside a primeval relic. It could’ve been a piece of magical equipment for mental warfare from the Pangu Clan or the Nuwa Clan.

“You know that the primeval war of Pangu and Nuwa was a war about whether the soul should be sealed or be released to the maximum. Both parties tried their best to ‘brainwash’ their enemy. The Pangu Clan tried to inculcate the ideas of abandoning feelings and sealing desires into the Nuwa Clan, whereas the Nuwa Clan tried to ‘contaminate’ the Pangu Clan with the extraterrestrial devils in their heads. So, both parties boasted tremendous experts of mental warfare. The mutual transmission, interference, blockage, and corruption of brainwaves were among the main forms of war. It was not strange at all that such a piece of magical equipment was dug out from a primeval relic!”

Li Yao mumbled, “I wonder if this ‘super brainwave magnifier’ is of the same model as the devices that we excavated from the Kunlun relic and the Nuwa wars.h.i.+p. When I returned to the federation from the Ancient Sages Sector, Master Jiang Shaoyang had already repaired a few pieces of magical equipment of the same type leading a team. They were the prototypes of the interferential magical equipment on the stars.h.i.+ps of the federation, and they could also be modified into facilities to help with mental training and increase the intensity of brainwaves.

“I spent some time in seclusion in one of the ‘mental training chambers’, learning the mysteries of brainwaves. I even dismantled and modified one of those devices!

“As far as I know, the magical equipment of such a type does not consume much energy. Why can it only be activated after the geothermal factory is occupied?”

“Come on, you were already in the Nascent Soul Stage back then and even slew a member of the Pangu Clan in person. Your brainwaves were unbelievably powerful. It was only natural that you could make use of the special magical equipment for mental warfare easily!”

Long Yangjun said, “However, most of the Nepenthe believers are ordinary people whose spiritual roots are not awakened. Compared to the experts in the Nascent Soul Stage and the Divinity Transformation Stage, their brainwaves are unrecognizably feeble. Even though they can resonate with each other, how can they power the magical equipment that used to be the tools of the primeval G.o.ds?

“Besides, the underground towns are blocked by too many rock stratum. Even the most intense waves will find it difficult to pa.s.s through the rocks. In order to deliver their brainwaves to thousands of kilometers away, they naturally need to enhance their brainwaves crazily, which requires the support of incessant, ma.s.sive energy!”

“Got it.”

Li Yao mumbled. Rolling his eyes again and again, he considered the brand-new plan carefully, and his eyes got brighter and brighter. “In other words, if the device is not used by them but by me, the messy magnifying coils around the device and the ma.s.sive energy in the energy factory will no longer be needed. The crystals that I’m carrying with me as well as the spiritual energy inside my body should be enough for it to work for a couple of minutes, right?”

Long Yangjun bulged her eyes again. “Hey, hey, hey. Don’t overestimate yourself. Your soul was seriously damaged in the battle against Blackstar the Great. It is already suicide to charge forward and attack so many enemies, and you are planning to exhaust your soul like that? Are you regretting that you can’t die soon enough?”

Ignoring her, Li Yao went on, “You said that I couldn’t enter the state of telepathy because the feelings and desires in my head were too strong, which stopped me from perceiving the amazing connection among the Nepenthe believers. If I do not want to get into the state of telepathy but only want to launch out my strong brainwaves, is it possible for all the Nepenthe believers to receive them?

“Perhaps my brainwaves cannot spread to thousands of kilometers away, but it shouldn’t be a problem for me to cover the entire Great Iron Plants as well as the dozens of underground towns nearby, right?”

Long Yangjun was more than furious. “You’re insane! You’re insane!”

“About that—”

Li Yao smiled and bared his white and sharp teeth. “You should have known it a long time ago, shouldn’t you?”

Rendered speechless, Long Yangjun almost couldn’t hold back the urge to roll her eyes and roar aloud.

Li Yao extended his hand to Long Yangjun. With the dominating, irrefutable brilliance beaming out of his eyes, he simply said, “Help me!”

…

BOOM!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The battle inside and outside of the Great Iron Plants entered the most heated phase the moment it began.

The Immortal Cultivators were much stronger, and they controlled all the fixed firing points and the defense arrays. In the meantime, the Nepenthe believers were the locals of the place who were familiar with every cave on the wall and every piece of magical equipment in the factories. Although the uprising began in a rush, they had already planted crystal bombs at the critical locations earlier.

At this moment, the crystal bombs exploded one after another, filling the entire factory area with lethal black smoke. No matter how the giant fans on the ceiling pumped, they could not reduce the intense fog by the slightest.

In the dense fog, light glittered nonstop. Broken limbs of human beings, mixed with the iron sh.e.l.ls of the battle puppets, were thrown to the midair together into dazzling fireb.a.l.l.s.

They were like ten thousand fireflies that had expanded abnormally. Feeding on human lives, they danced the craziest dance in the smoke and fire!

Because of the hasty activation, the Nepenthe believers’ unprofessional nature had been exposed since the first second.

Although the miners and farmers were charging unstoppably and fearlessly, and they seemed to be on the winning side, their charge barely had any accomplishment. The lives of countless people were sacrificed just in order to destroy a few battle puppets. The Immortal Cultivators, on the other hand, hid behind the fixed firing points and the defense arrays at the earliest chance when they saw that things were not good. They were not in a hurry to have a head-to-head clash with the lunatics and simply held their positions while waiting for the mob to be exhausted and for Li Minghui’s elite troops to return.

If the rebels were not organized effectively, their blind riot would only be completely suppressed sooner than expected.

By the time Li Minghui’s elite troops arrived, the knell of death would be tolled for Nepenthe.

However, for the regular Nepenthe believers, such questions were beyond their concerns.

They were just dwelling in the reverberation of their brainwaves and carrying out the agreed-upon orders mechanically.

The dozens of Nepenthe believers driving and protecting the giant excavator were no exceptions. They were just trying to move the “super brainwave magnifier” to the geothermal factory at the center of the Great Iron Plants.

Bombs and grenades were exploding all the way, and the guards that were supposed to cover the flanks were not in positions, meaning that the vehicle would likely be destroyed halfway. However, for the rebels who lacked training and experience, they had no idea about what to do at all except sticking to the original plan.

As it turned out, they were caught in trouble soon after they drove out of the cave.

Because of the hasty beginning of the operation, the covering forces were not in position. They were soon discovered by three battle puppets.

The weird shape of the excavator drew the attention of the battle puppets. Those battle puppets seemed to have been set to the reconnaissance mode, and they would approach and scan it when they detected an anomaly on the battlefield. The battle puppets, which were in the shape of humans at the beginning, suddenly folded their heads and the limbs, and a second pair of ancillary claws extended out of their bodies, turning themselves into six-footed spiders. They jumped to the ceiling of the cave and crawled to the giant excavator quickly.

The Nepenthe believers who were protecting the super brainwave magnifier immediately opened fire at the battle puppets. It was a shame that they had never received professional shooting training, and the recoils of the guns were too huge for them. The bullets from the storm bolters raised a storm of dust on the wall, blowing off countless stalact.i.tes and stalagmites. But except for the one battle puppet which was sparking under the barrage, the other two battle puppets hopped to the front without being damaged at all.

Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!

Sharp blades ejected from the front ends of the arms and the feet of the battle puppets before they vibrated at a high frequency in humming sounds. The cold redness in their eyes locked onto all the Nepenthe believers one after another. All the Nepenthe believers felt that ice cones were being stabbed into their throats!

“Ahhh!”

A tall and stronger Nepenthe believer raised the vibration pickaxe that was used to shatter rocks. If he hit the target, the metal skull of the battle puppet would certainly be dug through. However, before he completed his movement, which was strong enough but too slow, the battle puppet whose crystal processor had been imported with tremendous slaughter skills had evaded agilely and leaped onto his pickaxe after a weird turn.

The blade ripped quickly, and the pickaxe immediately fell into two parts. What the Nepenthe believer held in his hand was just the handle now. As if dancing a graceful dance, the battle puppet swung the edge of the blade, which was vibrating thousands of times a second, toward the neck of the Nepenthe believer.

It was not even a battle but just a one-sided ma.s.sacre.

The Nepenthe believer could not even see the battle puppet’s movement. There was no time for his nerves to react.

However, when the edge of the blade was about to cut the Nepenthe believer’s throat and carotid artery, the metal spine with which the battle puppet connected its crystal processor and the six sharp limbs was grabbed by someone before it was pulled out of its body by brute force!

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The crystal processor of the battle puppet was completely separated from the sh.e.l.l and was still sparking brilliantly in Li Yao’s hands together with the metal spine!
