Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Thinking it over, in the end, he still had to study this equipment.

At least when Dusk was causing trouble, he needed the equipment to appear as though it was functioning normally, so that Dusk wouldn't become suspicious.

Just as Chen Ming was about to do this, he suddenly felt that his Spiritual Power seemed to have changed again.

Chen Ming closed his eyes and carefully sensed for a moment, discovering that his Spiritual Energy was still continuing to grow.

Clearly, he hadn't done any exercises or received any spiritual stimuli.

Just as Chen Ming was somewhat puzzled while conducting a second examination, he suddenly noticed the number of controllable spaceships on his panel had increased by one, going from 10 to 11.

The change on the panel confirmed to Chen Ming that his feeling of his Spiritual Power growing was no illusion; the Spiritual Power was really increasing.

Moreover, Chen Ming soon discovered the exact reason for his Spiritual Power growth.

In a sense, his Spiritual Power was not growing but rather his body was adapting.

Adapting to the enhancements in Spiritual Energy and Spiritual Power after reverse absorbing that Enlightenment Nerve.

This means that Chen Ming's Spiritual Power had already increased significantly; it was just that during his coma, his body didn't adapt quickly to the enhanced state.

Thus, a situation like this appeared, which seemed as if it was growing.

Overall, it's nearly the same—becoming stronger is definitely a good thing for Chen Ming.

Once Chen Ming had the idea proactively, he quickly completely adapted to this enhanced Spiritual Power.

Soon after, Chen Ming discovered he had gained a new ability.

An ability he had always longed for—the Manufacturing ability.

Chen Ming no longer needed to rely on using something as a template to achieve the effect through Transformation that was similar to Manufacturing.

From now on, as long as Chen Ming mastered the method of Manufacturing, he could directly expend Spiritual Power and materials to create whatever he needed out of thin air.

Chen Ming immediately tried it, of course not on his side, considering he now had many Dusks watching him closely.

Therefore, after thinking it over, he chose to make some moves on the engineering ship at the Pirate Space Station he had encountered before.

Because at this moment, the director and Old Wu were taking command of this engineering ship on an external mission.

And on this ship, currently, there were just the two of them, or rather, only the two of them dared to command this engineering ship that Chen Ming had interacted with before.

Maybe he could add Bald, since Bald had previously proactively warned Chen Ming of the military's little actions, making Chen Ming feel some goodwill toward him.

Speaking of Bald, Chen Ming suddenly thought of whether he should show some appreciation to Bald?

After all, Bald had taken some risks to help him, and it's not quite right not to show some gratitude.

It was because he had been encountering a slew of things without the time before; now that he's free and has remembered, he ought to give Bald some compensation.

Just as Old Wu is managing his card right now, he could mention it to Old Wu after finishing the serious business.

Chen Ming quickly decided, then directly took control of the engineering ship's voice broadcast system.

"Hello hello, can you hear me?"

The two personnel controlling the engineering ship were momentarily stunned, but immediately realized what was happening.

"Xiao Ming? You're still alive!"

"Yes, I encountered a little accident over here, but it probably won't kill me for the time being."

"However, you might hear a failed mission report from the Fourteenth Legion that says I'm dead, so remember to act accordingly, just pretend I'm dead."

The director asked somewhat perplexed, "Did the Fourteenth Legion encounter any accidents?"

"If you ask me, I'd say this isn't an accident; it's intentional on their part."

Chen Ming quickly explained the situation he encountered to the two, then said, "There is definitely a problem with the Fourteenth Legion."

"But I will figure out a way to solve this myself. If they want my life, then it's not something that can be resolved through normal communication."

"So, it's best if you don't get involved."

The director gently shook his head and said, "We were already involved from the start."

Old Wu casually echoed, "As soon as you start making moves against the Fourteenth Legion, we'll surely be the first ones drawn into this."

"What do you two think?"

"Nothing much, even if the Fourteenth Legion did come knocking, we're definitely not scared; I've seen it all before."

Chen Ming was silent for a while and said, "Thanks."

"But this matter can wait; I need to test my Spiritual Energy right now."

"Another new feature?"

"Yes."

As Chen Ming spoke, he directly manufactured a set of lightweight exoskeleton armor on the engineering ship.

The consumption of Spiritual Power for the entire process was at least five times more than Transformation.

"Wow."

Old Wu circled the exoskeleton armor that had suddenly appeared out of thin air, habitually beginning to fiddle with it.

Chen Ming didn't have any intention to stop him; on the contrary, he directly let Old Wu wear it.

And just like before, while Old Wu was wearing it, more modifications were made to the armor.

The entire process was very smooth, without any influence due to distance or objects being touched by others.

After testing, Chen Ming simply chatted for a few moments with Old Wu and the director before ending the communication.

After all, he still had important things to do and couldn't afford to waste too much time.

But as soon as Chen Ming ended the communication, suddenly a voice sounded in his ears within the research institute: "Mr. Chen Ming."

Although it was a mechanical voice devoid of emotion and homogeneity, Chen Ming immediately recognized it.

It was the voice of Brilliant.
