Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station-Chapter 487 - 165: Implosion_2

With Chen Ming’s repair ability combined with the teleportation engine, he was already in an invincible position.

Using just physical displacement and attacks, there was absolutely no way to contact Chen Ming.

After the third attempt, the Steel Giant also realized this, temporarily abandoning his fastest mode of movement.

But what followed was the overwhelming surge of spiritual energy fluctuations from the Giant.

The range of his spiritual energy influence was rapidly expanding.

This is a manifestation of a Psychic’s spiritual strength, with no restrictions outside the Psychic himself.

Although it would consume a massive amount of spiritual power, it allowed him to make contact with Chen Ming’s spaceship faster than normal movement.

However, Chen Ming’s danger perception was exceptionally keen.

Before he felt that the expansion of the spiritual energy fluctuations influenced his control of the spaceship, merely sensing danger,

he had already repaired the teleportation engines of both ships, and jumped again to increase the distance.

And at the next moment, the Steel Giant, who had pushed the range of influence to the limit using spiritual power, once again hurled his spear towards Chen Ming’s teleportation landing spot.

The two cruisers jumped again, and, as if precisely detecting the Steel Psychic’s spiritual coverage, landed outside his reach.

Except, the few small boats that had dealt with Zuo Jing’s ships, which had returned to Chen Ming during the last jump.

Chen Ming’s Refraction and the two Centurions did not distance themselves with the cruiser’s teleportation engines like Torrential Rain and Warrior modification.

Thus, at the next moment, the three ships Chen Ming left in place were crumpled into a chaotic ball of metal,

even though the Centurion’s damping field was active, and Refraction’s electromagnetic pulse was constantly trying to affect the Metal Giant.

The metal ball was immediately absorbed into the Steel Giant’s body.

However, Chen Ming’s face showed no significant emotional changes, just silently observing the scene, gradually growing confident.

While the Steel Giant attempted once more to approach him, making short-range jumps, maintaining a subtle distance.

Until now, the Psychic inside the Steel Giant finally realized something was off with Chen Ming’s cruiser.

The basic concept of the teleportation engine was well understood by the Steel Psychic: with increased teleportation distance, engine wear increases.

This means, in a short time, over short distances, as long as the battle situation isn’t too chaotic, such as their current one-on-one scenario.

If the teleportation engine can be restarted, then it can indeed perform multiple jumps.

Achieving a situation almost akin to that of Dusk’s flashing engine.

Although Chen Ming could alternate his two cruisers for short-range jumps, the total number of jumps was alarmingly unusual.

Unable to approach, unable to control, the Steel Psychic’s spiritual energy could not effectively exert itself.

He gradually calmed down after realizing he had rushed in recklessly.

He discovered that with those two cruisers, Chen Ming could escape at any moment.

But he hadn’t; either he was toying with him, or he intended to eliminate him here.

Chen Ming was certainly not toying, nor wasting his spiritual power, not even sacrificing his ships for nothing.

What he’s doing now is delaying time.

And the purpose of this delay is to make his spiritual energy more effective.

Chen Ming can control ships, can control machinery.

But in the past, if the things he controlled were destroyed, he would lose control over them.

But now it’s different; even if the controlled things were destroyed, he could still maintain his spiritual energy on the broken remnants.

As long as he provides spiritual power to maintain this connection, control would remain intact.

So, those spaceship remnants mixed into the Metal Giant’s body were the same.

And as the liquid metal flowed within the Metal Giant, the fragments of the three assimilated ships which Chen Ming left now spread throughout the Giant’s entire body.

Chen Ming can now use these fragments as leverage for certain transformations.

This is why Chen Ming is confident in defeating this Psychic and hasn’t left yet.

And the most daring transformation Chen Ming can perform now must be the technology he learned from Zuo Jing.

No matter how the Steel Psychic reacted now, it was too late.

At this moment.

Bai Quan, communicating with Chen Ming via terminal, was silently watching all this unfold.

He always considered Chen Ming with the highest regard so nothing about Chen Ming’s spiritual potential surprised him.

So when Chen Ming left the ships and saw them absorbed, he already guessed Chen Ming’s plan.

And when the Steel Giant’s body suddenly began to bloat

He fully understood just how audacious and unexpectedly ingenious Chen Ming was.

The Steel Giant’s movements stagnated with the body’s changes.

The Psychic inside had noticed the abnormalities within.

The inexplicable intrusions inside his body were clearly affected by Chen Ming’s spiritual energy.
