and trapping them here. Otherwise, why would they go through so much trouble and involve someone like Honglian, a powerful fighter"Honglian, focus on severing the sacrifice. Here, leave it to me and...When the ripples left the isolation chamber, it was too clean, nothing remained, including the bodies of ten people.

After the ripples appeared, he contacted Thomas:

"Commander, you all saw what happened"

"I see, the picture is very clear."

“My star beasts can see consciousness entities and can severely wound them. To kill them, it takes some effort. I don't know if there are other star beasts that can see consciousness entities. These things all need to be tested. However, my psychic power can block consciousness entities from invading my brain.”

This is very important information. I hope you can form a report after and submit it to headquarters. The extraterrestrial research department will need your report very much.

Another ship has returned, but it is not within the XZ9 defense zone. It is at the WYB1 defense line, which is where the adjusted Second Army's defenses are located. I'm afraid you'll need to go there.

Thomas said seriously.

"Yes, I obey the arrangements. Captain Drew, please arrange a single-person spacecraft for me, and I will go to the Second Army myself."

"Okay, the command will be sent shortly. You can rest for a while first."

"Thank you, sir/ma'am."

Liàn yī jì le yī lǐ, rán hòu jiù děng zhe duì fāng xiān guà shì xìn, jié shuó tóu mǎ sī bìng méi yǒu guà duàn shì xìn, ér shì yòu yù huà le yīxià hòu wèn dào:

"Headmaster He, did you develop a second superpower"

"Yes."

"Why isn't this on your resume"

"The second ability I developed after graduation, and it wasn't stable back then, so I didn't report it."

Ripples said nonsense with her eyes open.

"I see. It's rare for someone to develop a second ability. Congratulations!"

"Thank you, it's just that my second ability is a bit special." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

After a moment of thought, Lian Yi said.

"Special What's special about it"

Thomas curiously asked, "Fire is a powerful ability. I've met some fire users in my family before. It's an aggressive type of ability and belongs to the basic category of abilities. It's not as rare as lightning-based abilities."

After a moment's thought, Lian Yi said:

"Sir, before I said that my fire ability was unstable, mainly because the attack power of my fire ability was not strong. But today when I was fighting against a consciousness entity, I realized that it wasn't that my fire ability was weak, but that it was targeted at specific enemies."

For example, there are these entities of consciousness, they're all wrapped in this thick black smoke. You can see them constantly invading and plundering, polluting themselves in the process, just like our brains get polluted. My fire ability really enjoys incinerating these things of pollution.

After hearing the explanation, Thomas felt that Ripples' ability was simply designed to counter consciousness entities. Although he was moved by this, he didn't find it surprising or astonishing.

Because in the history of the Federation, every major upheaval has seen a new power emerge, and those who awaken to this power become renowned figures in the Federation. Therefore, he accepted the explanation of ripples well.

Ripple was unaware that Thomas had already found a reason for her awakening special fire-based abilities, he just wanted to say it to dispel other people's suspicions.

Once the main topic was finished, both parties hung up. Ripple also had Xiao Liu report the process of handling Wu Tianxing and his group as quickly as possible, emphasizing that they had been replaced by consciousnesses, so she had to eliminate them under unavoidable circumstances.

Secondly, those with strong psychic powers can resist invasions from consciousness bodies, and star beasts can see consciousness bodies. As for which star beasts possess this ability, only they can research it themselves.

Even there are fire-based abilities that can obliterate consciousness beings, and it's marked. Ripple just said about the particularity of her own ability. As for whether all fire-based abilities within the Federation have this capability, or if it's an individual characteristic, further verification is needed.

Xiao Liu's speed was fast. It had text, images, and analysis results. He sent a copy to his superiors, the military headquarters received a copy as well. Then, Lian Yi drove her solo spaceship to the WYB1 defense line by herself. This is where the Second Army Group is stationed.

When the ripples reached WYB1's defenses, her report had already been sent to the military and federal high command. The researchers at the extraterrestrial studies lab were ecstatic and began researching based on Ripple's ideas.

After the ripple stopped her spaceship at the designated location, she saw the person who came to pick her up. It was an old acquaintance, Xiong Jian.

After exchanging greetings, the two started chatting with each other as if they were old friends.

Captain Bear, long time no see. I didn't expect you to be the one to pick me up.

"It's been a while! I only got this job because we're classmates and friends, otherwise it wouldn't have been my turn."

Bear Jian chuckled and said.

The arrival of the ripples gave them a sense of security. As soldiers, they would rather die on the battlefield than become mere vessels for consciousnesses. This was an insult to them.

"It seems you're doing well in the 2nd Army."

The ripples also chuckled in reply.

"Not bad. With Professor Rand's recommendation, I'm the third staff officer at the 455th Regiment HQ of the Second Army. Starting from the basics, it's different from you. You truly are your teacher's pride and joy. You commanded a defensive battle right away and repelled the main fleet of Oktovian soldiers with minimal losses. You're worthy of being the top student in our genius class."

Bear Jian's praise is definitely sincere, after all, as classmates we are proud to say it.

“Hey! Don't even mention it, I'm also thrown into the fire. Colonel Sabir, our commanding officer, was seriously injured when the command ship was attacked. Among the remaining crew, my rank is the highest, so I have to step up, or else wouldn't that be a shame for Teacher Rand and our gifted class”

Ripples said helplessly, "This really shows that her strength doesn't allow her to be low-key."

Bear Jian immediately gave a thumbs up and then, with great interest, asked about the course of the battle. It was a kind of experience exchange, and Ripple didn't hold back, sharing her own battle command and deployment strategy.

It also mentioned that particularly allowing the AI to infiltrate the enemy warships' systems was crucial for victory. If not for the enemy's flagship self-destructing and inadvertently harming surrounding vessels, throwing the Octervians into disarray, she wouldn't have been able to wait for reinforcements.

One can only say that her strategy is referable, but her tactics are unique. After all, not everyone's AI is this capable.

After a brief exchange, the two arrived at the flagship of the Second Army Corps. At this time, Brigadier General Quinn of the Second Army was already waiting to meet Ripple.

"Reporting to Major Quinn, Lieutenant He Lianyi and her starbeast have arrived!"

Xiong Jian pays respects and reports.

General Quinn, tall and imposing with a rather fierce countenance, was also a Beastman, a rare Qilin Beastman. As the highest-ranking Beastman in the Second Army, it's no wonder that Teacher Rand sent Bear Sword to the Second Army Corps.

Quinn gazed at the dashing young lieutenant before him, a satisfied smile playing on his lips. He opened his mouth to speak:

"Thank you for your hard work, He Shao-xiao. This time, I hope you can cooperate with the alien research team. They need to study the body."

Ripples listened, then furrowed her brows and bowed respectfully.

Major Quinn, is the extraterrestrial research facility fully prepared This type of consciousness is extremely difficult to control. If they replace our people, we'll have no way out but death. leave here, it's impossible to rely on her alone. Let's all work together and come up with a plan!After Lianyi and the others left the courtyard where the dungeon was located, they discovered that th...
