Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 102

Chapter 102, Mind Manipulation

When Grit found Gu Hang, she looked very serious, and her usual gentle smile was gone.

“We probably know what those cult traitors want to do.”

“What? Destroy the city and sacrifice it to the evil god?” Gu Hang tried to make a joke that was not very funny.

“Yes.” Grit nodded seriously without any intention of joking, “Those cult traitors always like to do this. The dirty creatures they believe in happen to like this.”

“Okay, then what exactly do they plan to do? Have you figured it out?”

Grit said, “Not yet, two sisters are still tracking. However, we may have figured out the hiding place of the leader of the cult traitors.”

“Oh?” Gu Hang’s interest finally rose, “Is it reliable?” “

It should be reliable, at least worth a try.”

“Then try it.” Gu Hang made a prompt decision, “What support do you need? I will arrange it as soon as possible. We’d better act immediately and don’t let anyone run away.”

“I need you.”

“Huh?”

“An excellent psychic can help us do a lot of things.”

Gu Hang quickly calculated in his mind.

He is indeed very busy now and can’t spare too much time, but no matter what, there must be a priority. Those government affairs, if put aside, will not kill people, or not too many people will die; if the cult leader can be killed early, many people will be saved.

Gu Hang had no taboos about personally participating in the battle.

Of course, the relevant security work must be done well.

It’s not that he doesn’t trust the nuns, but the more power he has at hand, the better.

Phoenix can ask them to send four people to participate in the operation, leaving three outside the city. They should not reject this request.

In addition to the two people who are responsible for the personnel review of the food distribution point in the outer city, there will be nine people participating in the battle.

Including Gu Hang himself… this lineup is definitely enough.

However, Gu Hang thought about it and decided to bring the elite marines with him.

That team has now become his personal guard.

After retaking Renaissance City and getting a lot of gifts, he directly upgraded the remaining people to T3 level.

This is the limit. Their equipment, basic physical quality, and combat experience are not enough to support them to upgrade to T2. Perhaps in the future, after more baptisms of blood and fire, or if there are any special opportunities or technologies, their ratings can be further improved.

But no matter what, 28 T3 soldiers are the most elite force that Gu Hang can bring out.

And he himself is an excellent psychic in the eyes of Grit.

But he can immediately raise his rating.

When the battle outside the city subsided, Gu Hang found that he had enough experience and could upgrade.

With only 200 gifts, he would become a psychic who was judged as LV4 in the system.

This level is also the level that Gu Hang calculated that he could fight a fully armed superhuman like a Space Marine alone.

After thinking this through in his mind, Gu Hang nodded and said, “Okay, then I’ll go with you.”

…

After sending Grit away and sending a request to the Phoenix and getting a reply, Gu Hang took advantage of the last bit of time before the team assembled to pay attention to two things.

The first was to look at the battle settlement.

[A bloody victory, 65 points of gifts were obtained]

[427 lost, 742 destroyed, 121 captured]

[3rd Battalion of the Governor’s Infantry Regiment: 89 lost, 266 destroyed]

[Captive troops: 338 lost, 337 destroyed]

[Phoenix Regiment (Allied Forces): 0 lost, 139 destroyed]

A bloody victory… This was the first time Gu Hang played it. Obviously, the gap in strength between the two sides was not that big, but a victory with a relatively large loss on one’s side would result in a smaller bonus of grace points.

Subtracting the gains of the Phoenix, the remaining amount was only 65 points of grace.

The weapons and equipment of the captive troops that had not yet been organized and were only temporarily pulled out were not very good. Except for some company-level heavy weapons, there was basically no generation gap in equipment level with those armed thugs. The other side also had the bonus of brainwashed religious fanaticism. Although the captives had the political commissar to boost their blood, there was still a gap.

Despite this, Gu Hang was not very satisfied with the 50-50 loss. This showed that their military skills were indeed a bit poor.

Gu Hang had a headache.

He had thought before that since they were regular soldiers of the Alliance, it wouldn’t be too bad if they couldn’t reach T5, right? Shouldn’t he save some grace points and just use them normally?

But looking at the current situation, it’s a bit too bad.

It seems that he still needs to add more points later.

Seven thousand people, even if they are pulled to T5 level, will cost 70 grace points. It hurts!

After checking the battle settlement, the second thing Gu Hang had to do was to upgrade.

After 200 grace points, Gu Hang felt a warm current, which represented the increase of basic attributes.

At the same time, the talent selection interface appeared in his interface.

As usual, he clicked on the [Unique] line first, and it didn’t work as expected.

Then he clicked on [Spiritual] without saying a word.

[Mind Manipulation: Allows you to sneak into the target’s mind, create illusions, tamper with memories, and forcibly control. At the same time, it strengthens your resistance to mental means. Spirituality +1]

Gu Hang was satisfied with getting a new talent.

Mental abilities are also what he has been looking forward to for a long time.

This kind of means, like telekinesis, is a standard means for many psychics, and it is also a very terrible means.

Moreover, after obtaining the psychic talent of mind manipulation, the role it can play is not just in combat.

Of course, Gu Hang also warned himself in his heart that the relevant abilities should not be abused. The order he hopes to establish is definitely not an order based on the means of mind control. He will not use this method on his own people.

But when necessary, this method can work wonders.

After completing the upgrade, his attributes become as follows:

[Hero: Gu Hang (camp leader), LV4, insufficient experience to upgrade]

[Physique: 9, Spirituality: 18]

[Features: Psychic caster, Governor of the Angry Owl Star]

[Talent: Body protection aura, telekinesis control, mind manipulation]

This time the attributes are not much added. In addition to gaining a little spirituality from the talent [Mind Manipulation], from the normal upgrade, the physical and spiritual attributes have not moved.

Of course, it is not really moved. In fact, he can feel that his physical fitness has improved, and so has his spirituality.

However, this increase is not as much as one attribute point, so it is not reflected in his personal interface.

After all, the higher you go, the more difficult it will be to upgrade, requiring more experience accumulation and more gift points. Similarly, the actual gap between each attribute point after upgrading will also become larger and larger.
