Pacific Rim world.

PPDC Headquarters.

"Newton, I think you need to rest." Hermann Gottlieb looked at Newton Geiszler, who had dark circles under his eyes, and advised him with some concern.

"I, Hermann, you don't understand! I don't need to rest!" Although Newton Geiszler looked very tired, his spirit was abnormally excited, he gesticulated and waved his arms, and his voice couldn't help but shout loudly: "You don't know what's been happening in my head lately, my head is having a storm! A storm of inspiration! Do you understand? Hermann? My mind is full of inspiration now, I can't waste time, I must record them all!

This may be the highlight of my life! I feel that this burst of inspiration is enough for me to push the technology of the entire world forward a big step! We can even become a civilization capable of space navigation! We can collect a lot of resources in the galaxy! Do you understand how unmissable this opportunity is?

You are committing a crime by stopping me now! It is a crime against civilization! It is against…"

Newton Geiszler became more and more excited as he spoke, and his tired body stood up, but before he could finish his words, Mako Mori, who was followed by four soldiers, knocked him unconscious with a tranquilizer.

"Sorry, I know your inspiration is important, but you need to rest." Hermann Gottlieb grinned.

Two soldiers behind Mako Mori stepped forward, grabbed Newton by the shoulders, lifted him from the ground, and dragged him out.

"Wait, where are you taking Newton?" Hermann Gottlieb felt that something was wrong, he stood up and wanted to stop the two soldiers, but Mako Mori grabbed his shoulder and blocked him.

"Calm down, Dr. Hermann! Dr. Newton is fine." Mako Mori quickly explained to Hermann Gottlieb, and then the other two soldiers behind Mako Mori stepped forward and carefully collected the various manuscripts and instruments on Newton Geiszler's desk, packing and sealing them one by one as if no one else was there.

"What are they doing? Those are Newton's and my research sketches! Those are my unfinished drafts!" Hermann's nostrils contracted violently as he breathed, with his chest rising and falling due to anger, he wanted to stop the two soldiers, but was pushed away by them without hesitation, and then continued to do their own thing.

"Things are a bit complicated, Doctor." Mako Mori grabbed Hermann and dragged him away.

"What exactly happened?" Hermann asked angrily.

"How long have you not paid attention to outside information?" Mako Mori looked helpless.

"I don't need to know outside information frequently, it's enough for me to immerse myself in the world of mathematics." Hermann raised his head and chest proudly: "What's more, Newton is here to accompany me."

"Recently, some things have happened, the state of some scientists has become a bit strange, they suddenly reached a period of inspiration, and came up with one new technology after another," Mako Mori said.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Hermann frowned.

"But soon someone died. After three or four scientists who came up with a lot of new technologies died, the authorities launched an investigation, and only then did they discover that many scientists in this circle had similar situations, bursts of inspiration, extreme physical exhaustion, but extraordinary mental energy, if no one stopped them, they would invest in the research of inspiration endlessly, until they ran out of energy.

More importantly, their spirits will become more and more irritable, whoever dares to disturb their research, they will go crazy. Without a large amount of tranquilizers, it is difficult for them to truly calm down and rest. But this is only a temporary solution. This is still a good situation, some scientists can't apply for research funding, but the inspiration in their minds and the strong desire to do scientific research often make them do some incredible things.

One scientist with a burst of inspiration, with the support of some unofficial funds, went crazy to combine human and leftover Kaiju genes, almost causing a major accident. In short, the scientific research circle outside is a mess now. Countries around the world have communicated and decided not to let this situation go, so these scientists in the period of inspiration need to be properly placed under supervision until their condition returns to normal, or we come up with a way to restore them to normal." Mako Mori rubbed his forehead.

"What about Newton?" Hermann looked at the soldiers who were packing things up and preparing to take them away.

"Yes, his various symptoms are in line with inspiration burst syndrome, can you imagine? One day, we will be afraid of the group inspiration of scientists?" Mako Mori felt absurd when he spoke. "If they can't provide funds and manpower to achieve the technology they think of when their inspiration bursts, then these scientists are simply the most terrifying people. To be honest, do you know what Dr. Newton's recent research is?"

"He," Hermann swallowed, and under Mako Mori's stunned gaze, said: "He wants to put clothes on the sun."

"What?" Mako Mori was completely dumbfounded.

"That's right, it's what you think." Hermann nodded fiercely: "Dyson Sphere! I've seen his research and plans, it's crazy! But it's possible to realize it."

……

Large Magellanic Cloud galaxy.

Kree Empire Capital.

The Supreme Intelligence is absorbing and accepting information from soldiers on missions through the Sea of ​​Consciousness. During a mind-contact with an Imperial scientist named Korath, also the target of the elite soldier, a mass of dark nightmares quietly integrated into the Supreme Intelligence program in the form of information flow through the connection of thoughts.

……

Luke has recently been dreaming that there are always some noisy sounds echoing in his sea of ​​consciousness, and then when he wakes up, a lot of new technologies will appear in the system panel deep in his mind. This strange phenomenon makes Luke a little curious. After some in-depth research and divergent thinking, he discovered that the occurrence of this situation is closely related to the [Black Nightmare Seed] he had previously released, so under bold speculation, he came to a conclusion that stunned him.

That is, he already has a little bit of the conceptualization of a dimensional demon.

The [Black Nightmare Seed] will automatically select a suitable host for itself. Affected by Luke's own thinking, this selection tends to be for people who are flexible in thinking or immersed in science. The [Black Nightmare Seed] itself will stimulate their potential, greatly increase their inspiration by consuming life and body energy, and after the other party dies, all the knowledge of the infected person will be integrated into Luke's body.

Just like the Vishanti, the source of white magic, everything of every Supreme Mage and those who have used His power belongs to Him after death.

Luke has not yet reached this level, it can only be said that that batch of [Black Nightmare Seeds] allowed him to feel a little of this great power in advance. At least before the batch of [Black Nightmare Seeds] that were released are exhausted.
