Transformed into Cosmic Horror in a Sci-Fi Universe

Oh, this is getting interesting, isn’t it?

The Galactic Union has started researching psionic energy, while the Warden has begun creating multiple elite blade monsters.

Certainly, this puts the Warden species at an advantage.

After all, they’re creating multiple beings that Yujin had to risk his life to kill.

Of course, “multiple” probably means three or four at most, but even that is tremendous.

Imagine four god-level monsters appearing and attacking simultaneously.

If I were Yujin, just the thought of it makes me dizzy.

It all depends on how quickly the research on psionic energy progresses.

But can they really use it just by doing research?

The Warden species was able to use psionic energy by drawing on the cosmic magnetic field because they had evolved themselves in that direction from the start.

In other words, it stems from genetic factors.

If that’s the case, no matter how much research they do, wouldn’t it be impossible for the Elves or Yujin to use psionic energy?

Hmm, I guess this makes things too disadvantageous for the Union.

I didn’t expect them to evolve this far.

Let’s allow the other side to use psionic energy too.

If they’re at the same level 12, the Union side would be too strong, so let’s make it about level 10…

Yeah, this much should make for a fair fight.

A scenario like “they did some research and found it suits them well, so they can use it” should work fine.

Then, the period for in-depth research and practice can be covered by the time it takes for the Transcendent Being to create three or four proxies.

Okay, good.

This should be enough to bring them up to a level where an equal fight is possible.

Sheesh, I originally planned to just sit back and watch.

Why did they suddenly evolve so brilliantly?

If Ubbo-Sathla saw this, he’d go crazy and demand to have it for himself.

“This psionic energy seems to be based on life energy, just like magic. It feels like it draws power by synchronizing life energy with the cosmic magnetic field.”

“…My goodness. If it can create energy for that lightning storm, how powerful must the life energy be?”

“I’m not sure, but… I estimate it might be at a level similar to Lord Yujin’s magical power.”

“That means it’s an unbelievable monster.”

Lasi and Lowie Hendrick are discussing psionic energy.

As a result of diligent research during the time the Union researchers, including Elves, explored Zone Z, they discovered that it’s an ability to synchronize life energy with the cosmic magnetic field.

The Blade Monster used that synchronized magnetic field to create an enormous electromagnetic storm that could threaten the Elftenium mothership.

“But if that’s the case, it can’t be used unless one is born with that life energy, right?”

It’s like magic.

Unless you’re born with life energy, you can’t use it.

Moreover, since its structure is fundamentally different from magic, even if you have magical life energy, you can’t use it.

It was an entirely separate energy from the start.

“Well, it seems it’s not entirely impossible.”

“What?”

But the answer from Lasi was unexpected.

“According to the researchers, it’s been discovered that the energy’s compatibility with magic and other forms of life energy is better than expected.”

In other words, if one has magic or other forms of life energy, they might be able to use psionic energy somehow.

“If that’s the case, perhaps…”

As if knowing what question Lowie Hendrick was about to ask, Lasi nodded.

“The test preparations are already complete.”

They now understood the structure of psionic energy and knew it had good compatibility with other energies.

All that remained was to try using it directly.

“We have volunteers among the Elves and are extracting the structure. As soon as it’s digitized, we plan to directly inject the information and try using it.”

They extract and digitize information about the usage and application of psionic energy from the brain of a captured Warden species.

Then, by directly injecting that data into those who want to learn, they can master the use of psionic energy without much effort.

This was originally a forbidden technology that digitized and transferred memories.

However, due to its advantage of being able to quickly and reliably extract completely unknown new forms of energy or technology, Yujin had adopted it limitedly for pioneering research.

“Please inform me as soon as the results are out.”

“Yes, of course.”

As Lasi left, Lowie Hendrick thought.

“Psionic energy, huh.”

Psionic energy.

It’s an incredible ability that can directly manipulate the cosmic magnetic field.

An incredible ability that surpasses magic.

Of course, it was possible because of the incredibly powerful life energy, but conversely, it also meant that beings with such tremendous life energy could do similar things.

‘What if Lord Yujin uses it?’

Yujin, the strongest being with the most powerful life energy in the Union.

If he acquires psionic energy as well, perhaps even more incredible things than what the Blade Monster did might happen.

‘Lord Yujin becoming stronger means the Galactic Union becomes stronger too.’

That’s not all.

Now that it’s been discovered that psionic energy has good compatibility, beings with other forms of life energy like magic or Elven spirits might all be able to utilize this power.

This will once again spark a tremendous energy revolution and greatly advance the Union.

‘Elftenium in Zone Y, psionic energy in Zone Z.’

As these occurrences increase, Yujin’s opinion to focus on external exploration gains more support.

There weren’t that many opponents to begin with, but they weren’t entirely absent either.

However, their numbers drastically decreased after the Elftenium discovery.

Having found such an excellent new material, they naturally had to keep quiet.

But there are still some who are satisfied with this level and want to just observe the situation.

This time, even those guys will have to completely shut their mouths.

Because we’ve discovered another incredible thing that will spark an energy revolution.

Thus, the opinion for external exploration will gain even more support, and Yujin will advance until he gets his hands on the entire universe as planned.

Along with the Galactic Union that develops and gains more as it advances.

‘I’m so glad I followed Lord Yujin. Who would have thought I’d see the Galactic Union grow and strengthen this much.’

It was unbelievable that this was still ongoing.

It can expand even more.

It can become even stronger.

The same goes for Lowie Hendrick himself.

From just a magic-using future elder, to someone who can create powerful devices with new materials and exert even more powerful force with new energy.

“I should go see Lord Yujin.”

He couldn’t bear it anymore.

Although it was better to minimize external contact as he was recuperating, he wanted to report this matter to Yujin.

#

“Hmm, I see. Psionic energy.”

Yujin’s reaction to Lowie Hendrick’s report was calmer than expected.

It was as if he already knew about it.

“Could it be that you already knew, sir?”

“Hmm? No, that’s not the case.”

However, he was certain that he would receive some kind of reward.

…Yujin chose not to voice this latter thought.

‘So this time, the reward is energy.’

An impossibly powerful enemy.

The reward obtained by risking his life to defeat it was none other than a new form of life energy.

Similar to the magic of the Meias tribe or the light spirits of the Elves.

It’s an energy source based on a person’s inherent energy.

However, such energies cannot be used without the innate genes.

The magic of the Meias tribe is relatively compatible, so anyone with innate talent can manifest magical power, but the light spirits of the Elves are completely different.

Because it’s a power directly bestowed by their guardian deity, no one other than the Elven tribe can use that power.

In fact, psionic energy was likely to be the same.

The compatibility of magic is unique, but life-based energies are often inherited in most cases.

However, this time, the compatibility is so good that anyone with strong life energy can learn it without much difficulty.

Research results have revealed this.

Yujin realized that this was the reward his main body had planted.

‘Well, I suppose this is worth risking my life for.’

Yujin was very satisfied.

Just like Elftenium, psionic energy was also a great reward that could be used very effectively.

It was certainly worth risking his life to kill the enemy commander.

‘Well, I thought I wouldn’t die anyway.’

In any case, he wanted to finish his recovery quickly and learn to use this new power himself.

Psionic energy, huh.

A psionic storm!

How could he contain his excitement, knowing StarXraft?

While Yujin was so excited, he probably didn’t know.

The reason for giving him the power of psionic energy wasn’t a reward for overcoming the trials of Zone Z, but rather for the incredible trials that were yet to come.
