It turned out that one's own kind could still be the most ruthless toward each other.
The robots only used anesthetic guns and nerve-control rounds. Taking a few hits wouldn't kill anyone.
But these "psychokinetic police" used genuine military-grade energy weapons—the kind that killed you on contact.
And they were frighteningly good at using psychokinetic tides.
The nerves tempered through countless trials in the military suddenly gave Xingming a sense of dread. Without the slightest hesitation, he kicked off with one leg and jumped straight down from the high-rise.
Almost at the same time, a huge blue cloud of energy appeared in the gap between the buildings.
The blue energy cloud first shrank inward, then suddenly exploded outward. Powerful mental fluctuations swept through the surroundings, causing large numbers of household appliances to explode on the spot.
How did these people's psychokinesis get even stronger?!
The instant he jumped down, it seemed as though the stars were falling past him, while nebulae revolved around his body.
Ever since I was infected with the brain-insect virus, these illusions have been appearing more and more often. Damn it! How could Astral Enlightenment happen this frequently?!
Why hasn't their connection with the stars been severed yet?
Several questions flashed through Xingming's mind as he fell.
In ancient times, psychokinesis had been a method of contemplating the celestial phenomena and tempering oneself.
And by directly communicating with the "stars," one could obtain a tremendous increase in psychokinetic power. This was known as "Astral Enlightenment."
As technology advanced, especially after big-data models were established, the upper echelons gradually developed astral technology that could manipulate the "stars" and strengthen communication with them.
This also caused lone-wolf psychokinetic experts to gradually withdraw from the stage of history, replaced by the rise of families, astral corporations, and centralized governments.
