Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 169 Fire Seed Falls in the Sky
The howling wind mixed with large flakes of frost and snow swept recklessly in all directions, making the dim world even darker.

Zhuguang City outsourced the entire energy supply bureau to [Fubo Energy], which naturally implemented full marketization, with every ray of sunshine, every spark, and every kilowatt-hour of electricity clearly marked with a price.

Therefore, most residents in the outer city use the electricity they earn for heating and surfing the Internet, and naturally give up simply turning on lights for lighting. When night falls, the inner and outer city become completely different worlds separated by a wall.

One is bright and colorful, the other is dim and cold.

Song Shi turned his head and looked out the window.

Although the shuttle has activated its "optical camouflage" system and disappeared from conventional vision, it is not a disappearance at the material level or a "phase shift" in the quantized state.

The hail would not stop falling just because it could not be seen. It hit the shuttle with a crackling sound, causing Song Shi, who was sitting in the shuttle, to feel a slight tremor under his seat.

The bright chandelier was shaking, and there was only a young man in the shuttle.

There is not even a driver, the entire process is operated by an intelligent control system.

"——Four minutes to the target location."

A standard and gentle mechanical sound was heard, which was a reminder of the intelligent control.

Song Shi didn't answer.

No matter how human and considerate this onboard intelligent control is, it is not a true intelligent machine that has awakened "self-awareness". Even Lapis Lazuli would not regard such a thing as one of its own.

Speaking of "Lapis Lazuli", it did not come along this time. This was also the agreement between the two - Lapis Lazuli would provide services for Song Shi, and the latter would provide certain shelter and not expose its existence.

This is true even when facing the Enlightened One.

Based on the accumulation of three bounties through cooperation, both parties have reached a tacit understanding, but they are still some distance away from being truly honest - both parties understand that the other party must have their own plans and needs the other party's help.

"——There are still three minutes to the target location."

Song Shi stood up.

He gently stroked the heavy sword. The matte paint brought a slight frosted feeling, and as if sensing the master's will, the blade slowly became hot.

"——Two minutes to the target location."

This shuttle was provided by the Enlightened One, and it was responsible for delivering Song Shi to the current base of the "Anfu Axeman" - an engineering bunker deployed by [Fubo Energy] in the fifth district of the outer city.

Currently, of the six major areas in the outer city, Qimingzhe has captured the third and fourth areas, the company controls the first and second areas, and the fifth and sixth areas are in a tug-of-war between the two sides.

As for the inner city area, which is the basic base of Zhuguang City, the company still firmly controls most of it. At present, the actions of the Enlightened in the inner city area are mainly small-scale special activities, including but not limited to beheading, infiltration, propaganda, etc.

"——One minute left to the target location."

Song Shi let out a breath slowly.

He suddenly opened the cabin door, and a biting cold current rushed towards him instantly, flapping his clothes and hair, making a rustling sound.

Amid the blowing frosty wind, Song Shi stood at the edge of the cabin door, overlooking the earth.

A world different from the first and second areas comes into view.

——It’s brighter here.

As Enlightenment was pressing forward and risking everything, companies led by Fubo Energy rarely relaxed some of their constraints, and some residues flowed out between their clenched fingers and were invested in the areas under their control.

The most basic point is that residents in Districts 1 and 2 can now enjoy certain discounts when purchasing electricity quotas, exchanging more electricity for a lower price than before.

Whenever night falls, looking down from the sky, the first and second districts now actually have a bit of a cold rain and neon scene.

——But it’s only “a few points”.

The basic strategy of giant companies such as Fubo Energy is to achieve various separations and distinctions by limiting the amount of power supplied. Compared with civil facilities that need to pay high electricity purchase fees, commercial entities such as factories can enjoy extremely generous energy supply preferential policies and operate all night long.

Under the instruction and supervision of Fubo Energy, these companies and factories even provide commuting expense reimbursement, cheap energy drinks and free work meals, as well as unlimited WiFi.

In the face of these benefits, warm and bright factories and companies are obviously more comfortable than cold and dim homes, and most workers and employees choose to work overtime voluntarily to a greater or lesser extent - not to mention that going home can only mean spending money, while staying in the company can mean making money.

We are not working for the company, we are just thinking about ourselves!
If you work harder and put in more overtime now, you will be able to retire earlier and enjoy life in the future.

"——Alert! We are about to reach the target location!"

So Song Shi smiled.

Under the pitch-black night, facing the frost and snow, he jumped out without hesitation!

The fierce wind whistled in his ears, the ground below quickly enlarged in his pupils, frost and snow swirled around his body - without any protection, Song Shi actually parachuted directly into the air.

There was just not a trace of fear.

--call!

In the rapidly changing blurry scene, Song Shi stretched out his right hand and watched the turbid snow crystals covered with industrial dust slipping through his fingers, seeming to sigh and feel happy.

When was the last time I parachuted in like this?

Then, these few sighs disappeared in the wind.

Instead, fourteen balls of light emerged - these were all the fire that Song Shi now possessed.

And four of them suddenly lit up!
They continued to expand, expand, and expand, and as the terrifying red-gold light spread, the entire night sky seemed to light up for a moment.

In the next moment, the fire finally expanded to its limit, and four balls of surging red light fell to the ground below!
——Like the sun setting!
This is a more terrifying blow than a thermobaric bomb.

Each "Spark" stores a quarter of its own spiritual energy, and abandons the complicated application method, turning into pure energy bombardment. Even though it is still inferior to the thermobaric bomb in terms of simple coverage area, the terrifying destructive power from the effects of "Burning Blood" and "Ashes" has completely surpassed it.

boom.

——Boom, boom, boom!
Four fire seeds transformed into red-gold flaming stars that smashed into the engineering bunker below. The outer shell of the office building used as a camouflage to cover the visible surface was burned up immediately, revealing the fortification structure inside.

The surging heat swept through, and the four red-gold balls of light suddenly expanded - when they expanded to a radius of five meters, the light balls finally burst completely, and the red-gold flood easily engulfed everything nearby.

In a world of thousands of square meters, the reinforced office buildings melted and collapsed, the earth cracked, melted, and cracked again. In the surging flames, suddenly a few "bubbles" emerged and quickly dissipated - those were a few vehicles that stayed there and caused the explosion.

——Then, there was a sharp sound of breaking through the air, piercing the night sky!
Placed under his body, the flames that were almost stacked into a ring shattered one after another, and under the continuous recoil force, the huge kinetic energy accumulated by the free fall was offset.

boom!
Song Shi adjusted his posture in the air, faced the rolling heat flow, crashed into the flames that had not yet completely dissipated, and stepped onto the scorching ground.

In the distance, from the dull and furious sound of mechanical collisions, several outlines tore a path through the flames and rushed towards here frantically.

He looked around at the surroundings that had become a purgatory, and then stared at the enemy in front of him for a moment.

"—I swear."

Finally, Song Shi raised his head and said loudly in laughter: "All the stars are at the end, and the great source is above - please bear witness to the way!"

"Let the living souls be burned, let the red blood be dried up, let the existing things be reduced to nothing, let all visible and invisible things be reduced to ashes"

He held a heavy pistol and declared as he faced the rain of bullets in front of him.

"——After this time and before tomorrow, this place will become a scorched earth and a purgatory."
