Rebirth, Ten Billion Psionic Value!

Parallel world, Donghai City.

Whoosh--whoosh--

Inside a 50-square-meter room in the Guihua residential complex, a young man of about 22 or 23 years old bolted upright from his bed, gasping for air.

Wasn't I killed by the Skrull? How is this possible?

Looking at the familiar surroundings, Su Yu hurriedly reached for the phone on his bedside table.

"May 29, 2120. This... have I been reborn?! And I've returned to before the Great Upheaval began?"

Su Yu stared at the date displayed on his phone, his face full of disbelief.

According to his memories, on June 1st—three days from now—the Skrull would invade Blue Star.

The Skrull were a civilization slightly more advanced than Blue Star, possessing the capability to annihilate humanity and fully occupy the planet within a month.

However, according to the game rules established by the cosmic god-tier civilization—the Singer Civilization:

When an advanced civilization invades a weaker one, the Singer provides the weaker civilization with a period of protection and a certain degree of self-preservation.

Thus, the Skrull's full-scale invasion was delayed by one year, to June 1, 2121.

At the same time, the Singer Civilization provided Blue Star humanity with two means of self-preservation.

First, Psionic Revival.

At that time, the psionic energy stored deep within the mantle would be fully triggered, enhancing the strength of all Blue Star humans.

Second, a 100% immersive game—"Evolution."

Once a Blue Star human reached Level 50 in "Evolution," they could manifest their in-game strength into the real world.

Regrettably, when the Great Upheaval first began in Su Yu's previous life, governments around the world did not know that strength could be manifested through "Evolution."

By the time various nations began to take it seriously and encouraged the entire population to enter the game to explore, it was already half a year later, after the Third Expansion Pack had launched and players had reached Level 50.

One step behind, every step behind.

On June 1, 2121, the fully prepared Skrull launched a massive invasion, their waves of offensives crushing Blue Star humanity.

And Su Yu was the very person who died in the final battle against the Skrull.

Su Yu stared at the date on his phone screen, his expression rigid, unable to speak for a long time.

After a long while, he finally regained his composure.

"The servers for 'Evolution' should open in three days. I must buy a Game Helmet during these three days!"

"Also, when logging into the game for the first time, the Game Helmet will absorb all psionic energy within a five-kilometer radius. I had best take the helmet to the side of a Psionic Spring."

Su Yu muttered to himself while taking action, dialing the hotline to purchase a Game Helmet.

He was not the type to sit and wait for death.

As for whether his rebirth could trigger a butterfly effect and influence the entire human situation, he wasn't certain himself.

Regardless, he would do his best and leave the rest to fate!

Three days later, at 7:30 AM, Su Yu drove his beat-up car to the front of a remote, desolate hill on the outskirts of Donghai City.

"Yunlu Mountain, this is the place."

Su Yu picked up the Game Helmet from the backseat and began to hike up the mountain.

The "Evolution" Game Helmet cost 30,000 credits, nearly exhausting all the savings from his first year of work after graduation, but Su Yu didn't care in the slightest.

Humanity was about to be destroyed; what use was money?

Holding the helmet as he reached the summit, he looked at the magnificent landscape around him, filled with deep emotion.

Right now, almost no one in the country knew of this obscure little hill called Yunlu Mountain, but in half a year, the name of this mountain would spread across the entire nation.

Due to the Psionic Revival, 24 giant, 108 large, and 3,600 small "Psionic Springs" would open across the globe, spewing psionic energy outward.

And the "Yunlu Mountain Psionic Spring" was the largest one in the world!

Time ticked away, second by second.

"It's 8 o'clock! The time for 'Evolution' to open has arrived; the Great Upheaval is beginning!" Su Yu's expression turned solemn.

Suddenly, the earth began to tremble violently.

About two kilometers to the north of the summit, the ground suddenly split open, revealing a bottomless chasm!

At the same time, a massive amount of milky-white and pale-purple psionic energy surged out from the chasm, spreading in all directions as a torrent of psionic energy shot straight into the sky.

"Truly beautiful!" Su Yu squinted as he watched the "Psionic Pillar" take physical form.

The Psionic Spring appeared to be a gift from Blue Star to humanity, capable of enhancing everyone's strength. But Su Yu knew it was also one of the roots of human suffering.

In about an hour, the Skrull ships would arrive here to occupy the Psionic Spring and build a base.

Humanity would not only fail to enjoy any benefits from the Psionic Spring, but the Skrull would instead use the energy from the spring to create a large number of terrifying monsters, bringing immense trouble to humanity.

Precisely because of this, Su Yu having his helmet absorb the psionic energy here would not only cause no harm to humanity, but would actually weaken the strength of the Skrull.

It could be said to kill two birds with one stone!

After seeing the psionic energy gushing from the ground, Su Yu quickly put on his game helmet.

"Enter game!"

"Loading 'Evolution' game"

The familiar game prompt sounded in his ears, and Su Yu's consciousness connected to the helmet, entering the deep game world.

"Ding, detected psionic substance around you, do you want to absorb it?"

"Yes!"

"Starting absorption, please wait."

Outside, the massive psionic energy rushing towards the sky seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, all surging towards Su Yu on the mountaintop.

Endless psionic energy wrapped around him layer by layer, absorbed by the helmet.

In the game, the "Psionic Value" on Su Yu's panel was also skyrocketing!

One hundred thousand!

One million!

Ten million!

One hundred million!

Finally, the "Psionic Value" stopped at the number ten billion.

Su Yu couldn't help but gasp.

Before his rebirth, he had entered the game half a year later, and at that time, the psionic value he obtained was only 11 points.

And now, ten billion!

"Detected that Psionic Value absorption has reached the upper limit, do you want to enter the game."

"Don't enter, exit the game!" Su Yu quickly made his decision.

Because in an hour, a Skrull spaceship would descend here, and he didn't want to be the first human captured alive by the Skrulls.

After exiting the game, Su Yu took off the helmet.

Because the helmet had absorbed almost all the surrounding psionic energy, the "Yunlu Mountain Spring" to the north had become listless, completely lacking the majestic gushing momentum it had just moments ago.

Su Yu couldn't bother with that and quickly ran down the mountain with the game helmet.

On the road at the foot of the mountain, Su Yu drove his old car, stepped on the accelerator, and left the Yunlu Mountain area.

An hour later, a rift several kilometers wide tore open in the sky above Yunlu Mountain.

A brown-gray spaceship, two hundred meters long, landed on the summit of Yunlu Mountain.

Inside the spaceship, a Skrull female pilot with pale green skin reported to her superior:

"Commander, No. 001 Giant Psionic Spring shows abnormalities. The gushing volume is only equivalent to a small psionic spring."

"How is that possible?" The Skrull male commander sitting in the Main Control Room looked surprised: "Did we land in the wrong place?"

"No, sir. The coordinate data is completely normal."

"Then let's land here. Everything follows headquarters' orders," the Skrull Commander said.

"Yes, sir."
