Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 231

231. Chapter 231, Upgrade! Level 6 Psychic Power, Storm is Coming!

[Event Activated: Storm is Coming]

[The cult that believes in the original angry owl, at the moment of its destruction, has erupted in its final madness. ]

[They are about to summon the owl god who has become a member of the evil god of the abyss at all costs. ]

[The most heroic warriors under your command are trying their best to prevent all this from happening, and your next actions will also have a decisive impact. ]

…

Looking at the news that appeared on the [Event] interface, Gu Hang took a deep breath and decided to go to the north in person.

Of course, he knew the situation of the Polar Industrial City, and the command center was always reporting information to him.

He knew that the city could now be said to have planted the flag of the alliance; he also knew that his most elite group of warriors had already gone down to the so-called underground space of the C7 area and started a firefight with the cultists.

He knew that this time, under Grit’s proposal, the alliance, although the cost was relatively high, instantly mobilized a huge force and put all the cutting-edge forces at hand into the same thing.

But at present, it seems that this choice is correct. The alliance made a full-scale attack, showing its strong strength. In a way that the local forces of the Wrathful Owl Star could not imagine, it carried out a rapid raid, which really completely subdued the Polar Industrial Group, and the entire northern border would be within easy reach.

Although it will take a long time to pacify other areas and rebuild the alliance’s own ruling system. However, in general, it will definitely take less time than the time it took to recover the eastern provinces.

What’s more, this action has a great value, which is to wipe out the Pingchu Wrathful Owl Sect, which is a thorn in Gu Hang’s heart.

Gu Hang knows that things may not always go so smoothly, and he is also prepared for unexpected events, and even has corresponding remedial measures for the backhand.

And he himself is one of these “remedial measures”.

He has indeed been busy with government affairs for a long time. But this does not affect the fact that he is the most powerful psychic in the entire alliance.

The identity of a level 5 psychic can already allow him to use psychic means to fatally control opponents at the level of the Orc Fleet Warlord.

Not to mention, he had already accumulated enough experience to upgrade to a level 6 psychic.

However, before that, he had not upgraded.

The number of grace points required to upgrade from LV5 to LV6 was a bit too much.

LV5 only required 500 grace points, but upgrading to LV6 required 2,000 points.

This was an expensive price. Even if he had made the 10,000 or 20,000 grace points before, he was not in a hurry to upgrade.

Upgrades can be made at any time as long as there are grace points; on the contrary, every minute and every second of the development of the territory is precious golden time.

Thinking that there would be no subsequent battles that required him to personally fight, he did not make this choice.

The two thousand grace points saved could be used to draw technology, expand the army, conduct multiple political commissar training to fill his government departments, expand the demon hunter team, and serve as the main force of anti-corruption operations…

His own personal strength was not so urgent.

But now, it seemed that it was time.

On the Feng Falcon flying north, Gu Hang used the grace points that had been saved in the past two months to upgrade his personal level to LV6.

First, the physical and spiritual attributes each increased a little.

Secondly, Gu Hang once again chose the spiritual direction among the options as the specialization for this upgrade.

And this provides him with a brand new ability: Iron Will.

[Iron Will: You will have a will as strong as steel. From now on, you will not feel tired, shaken, or afraid before you are on the verge of your limit; your emotions will become more stable and strong; the effects of attacks on the spirit and soul will be reduced to a certain extent depending on the spiritual attribute gap between the other party and you. When the spirituality of the caster is more than 4 points lower than your spirituality, all such effects will be invalid; when the spirituality of the caster is more than four points greater than yours, the reduction effect is fixed at 35%. You gain 1 additional spiritual attribute. ]

Gu Hang is generally quite satisfied with this newly acquired feature.

There is nothing wrong with defensive psychic power.

He has a body-protecting aura that can be used to resist physical and energy attacks. And this is just right for dealing with spiritual damage. The two are complementary.

Not to mention, the extra resistance to normal fatigue, shaken, fear and other negative states can also bring him a lot of help in non-combat situations.

As for the extra spirituality, it was expected.

So far, his personal attribute panel has become like this:

[Hero: Gu Hang (faction leader), LV6, insufficient experience to upgrade]

[Constitution: 11, spirituality: 22]

[Features: Psychic caster, Governor of the Wrathful Owl Star, Enemy of the Storm]

[Talents: Body protection aura, advanced telekinesis control, mind manipulation, iron will]

A full 22 points of psychic attributes, compared to before he upgraded, increased by two points, which is equivalent to 2.25 times at level five.

There is no doubt that his strength has been greatly enhanced again.

After testing it out of thin air, he felt that if he met the orc fleet commander he encountered in the previous star war again, perhaps he would not need the cooperation of others. He alone could use psychic energy to break his will, or use psychic energy to tear his body from the inside of the heavy armor.

…

With this new power, Gu Hang arrived at the Polar Industrial City a few hours later.

The speed of the Wind Falcon was once again demonstrated. It took only two hours to reach a distance of 5,400 kilometers.

This is actually more than twice as fast as the regular cruising speed of the Wind Falcon, and it was flying at a speed of 2.5 Mach throughout the journey.

In fact, it is rare. Normally, the Wind Falcon would not continue to fly at more than twice the speed of sound for such a long time. After all, it is not a single-person fighter, but an aerial warship weighing hundreds of tons. The anti-gravity engine running at full speed for such a long time is very horrible for energy consumption.

However, the Alliance is still very rich in energy used in small quantities. The waste energy storm collection plant and energy compression plant built in the High Tower Province can easily produce super energy crystal blocks. This advanced energy is more than enough for the Wind Falcon to support the consumption of long-distance full-power flight.

It’s just that the mechanical structure of the Wind Falcon itself may not be able to hold up. After flying a few times like this, I’m afraid it will have to go back for overhaul.

But speed is of the essence in war, so there is no time to worry about so many things. Let’s just go back and fix it.

The elite special forces on duty outside the storage center in Area C7, which had been captured and blocked, were very surprised when they saw the Governor coming.

They didn’t know that the Governor was coming.

In fact, when Gu Hang set out, he certainly sent a message to the front-line command post. When

Thadius knew that he was coming, he strongly opposed it. With such an important identity as the Governor, he should not be on the front line in person. If there is any mistake, it will be unacceptable to the Alliance.

However, it is obviously impossible for him to persuade Gu Hang.

As a second choice, he can only pass the message to the commander of the Martins regiment on the front line.

However, the message failed to reach the destination.

Martins has lost contact.

Then, Thadius tried to pass the message to the 31st Airborne Division, asking them to go to Area C7 as soon as possible to inform them of the Governor’s arrival.

However, the flow of information takes time. The 31st Airborne Division had just received the news, and before the messenger they sent arrived, Gu Hang had already arrived.

The special forces elites standing outside were surprised, but their first reaction was to salute.

Most of the members of the special forces were selected from the selection of Phoenix Space Marines.

Every one of them had seen the Governor at the training place. They were even sure that the miraculous changes that happened to them had a lot to do with the Governor. In fact, a considerable proportion of them had attended classes at Xifeng Zhongsi Academy, and they were extremely loyal to the Governor.

After Gu Hang returned the greeting, he called the person in charge of the scene, a major from the 10th Special Operations Brigade, to ask about the current situation.

Gu Hang learned that Martins had been leading the team down for about two and a half hours. In addition to the twelve Space Marines, there were thirty-one combat sisters, twenty demon hunters, and twenty special operations elites, a total of more than eighty people.

This is almost the limit. The entrance is just a 6×6 hole, and after a preliminary investigation, it was found that the terrain below is narrow, with various underground corridors connecting many rooms. No matter how many people go down, it is not easy to deploy troops. On the contrary, a small-scale elite team is more suitable.

In theory, this scale is enough.

However, they have not received any news for a long time.

The major felt something was wrong, and two hours ago, he sent another team to investigate the situation.

Before the team set off, they were ordered to come up and report the situation as soon as they saw the commander of the Martins regiment.

However, they never came back.

This made the major very anxious.

After that, the major would send another team down every once in a while.

He had already sent more than a hundred people in, but none of them came out.

“… Governor, this is the current situation.”

The major’s forehead was full of sweat.

He could see that the governor seemed to want to go down again. He knew that his status was not enough, but he still gritted his teeth and persuaded: “Governor, I will take a team down to see if I can. As long as I don’t die in there, I will definitely bring back the news! Don’t go down and take risks yourself. The alliance can’t do without you…”

Gu Hang raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

He closed his eyes tightly and felt the surging psychic power below.

A terrible thing is brewing there.

This is not a complete gestation, but more like the madness before death.

If left alone, its damage is actually relatively limited – for the entire planet, this is the case.

It should form an incarnation of the evil god, which can exist for about a week; it can set off a huge storm and sweep across the entire northern border.

The Polar Industrial City will certainly be destroyed because of this, and most people will not survive; in addition to the Polar Industrial City, 60% to 70% of the more than two million people in the entire North Territory may die directly or indirectly because of this.

In total, this is about a population loss of two million.

Switching to the cold mode of a ruler, Gu Hang can calculate that this is not a completely unacceptable number. It is

true that this will almost destroy the value of the North Territory, but after a week, the disaster will be over and will not continue to spread.

However, this is the last and worst result.

Gu Hang believes that the situation is far from that point.

Even if it really comes to that point, he must pull the people below out and withdraw his troops.

He is sure of this.

Because he can feel that below, in the turbulent sea of psychic energy, nearly two hundred life fires are still burning.

That is evidence that his warriors are still fighting.

Gu Hang opened his eyes and said to the major: “I’m going down.”

After that, he floated forward.

Of course, the major couldn’t stop him.

Gu Hang did not leave any explanation.

There was no need.

He would not fail to come out, he had great confidence in this.

…

After entering from the underground entrance, Gu Hang floated in the corridor.

He saw many corpses, but they were all cultists.

Obviously, when the Space Marines led the team to break in, these cultists put up a tenacious but useless resistance.

The warriors of the alliance pushed forward all the way, invincible.

And as Gu Hang moved forward along this road, he felt as if he was at the seaside, constantly walking into the depths of the sea. With every step he took forward, he felt the power of psychic energy become stronger.

The manic power from the abyss, like a real storm, washed Gu Hang’s spirit crazily.

But under the protection of the [Iron Will] he had just obtained, these powers did not have any substantial impact on him.

At the same time, he soon saw the first member of the alliance.

They were several special warfare elites, lying around the corridor, breathing rapidly and unconscious.

After a simple check, Gu Hang judged that their consciousness seemed to have entered a strange area.

They seemed to be fighting fiercely, their heartbeats were fast, and their muscles were still twitching involuntarily, but they did not wake up.

If Gu Hang used the ability of [Mind Control], he could wake them up from this strange state.

But after thinking about it, he did not do so.

He continued to float forward and saw more Alliance fighters.

Until he arrived at the most empty underground space.

In the center of this space, there were densely packed corpses, forming a circle around an old man whose clothes were very similar to those of the cult high priest Trikao who had met in Fuxing City.

The old man was also dead.

Under these corpses was a blue-white, rapidly flashing chaotic eight-pointed star array.

At the same time, Gu Hang also saw the figures of Martins, Grit, the demon hunter, and dozens of special combat elites.

They stood with their eyes closed and their bodies trembling slightly; their heartbeats were fast and their breathing was rapid, just like the warriors found earlier.

At this point, Gu Hang could still conduct large-scale mental interference and wake them all up.

But he still did not do so.

He probably knew what had happened.

He should have fallen into the same state as them when he entered the area where the sea of psychic energy was most intense. But his strong spirituality and the blessing of [Iron Will] allowed him to avoid that situation.

However, he took the initiative to enter it.
