Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 174 Who is coming?

Misassessment...big trouble.

Thomas thought.

Although he was looking at Fast and talking to him, his real attention was always on the young man in the burning ruins.

The Enlightened One took the lead, turned defense into offense, and sent people to launch a surprise attack on the "Anfu Axemen". This was not too unexpected - this situation was included in the Security Department's 17 simulation and contingency plans.

His reaction was also quick enough.

As soon as he learned about the surprise attack, he personally showed up and led this elite mobile force to rush over - this was already enough to easily suppress the combat power of a regular level 4 unit.

[Nanyu Heavy Industry] and [Zero Degree Network] are not far behind. The former is the special pilot "Sadao Akitsu", and the latter is not clear for the time being, but he must have also entered the scene and is using drones, cameras, etc. to overlook the place.

In theory, this should be enough to ensure stability, no matter how much the scene is overestimated.

But all of this became insignificant compared to the scene I witnessed not long ago.

——As the second ring body, defeat the enhanced "Anfu Axeman" head-on.

No, not even beat
The opponent can almost be said to be "crushing"!

The intelligence center in the rear was operating at high speed, searching the database and continuously bringing in relevant intelligence about the enemy.

So, three breaths ago, he finished reading the past of "Song Shi".

"He killed the security director of Emerald Pharmaceuticals, a third-level psychic, in Palose more than half a year ago. At the same time, he was the decisive factor in the operation codenamed 'Moth', which overthrew and expelled the branch of Emerald Pharmaceuticals."

Thomas has a good eye to be able to sit in the position he is in today.

So, combined with what he saw just now, he could be sure.

——It is almost certain that the opponent will be promoted to the fourth ring, [Sublimation].

Even stepping into the fifth ring, the realm of [True Spirit], is not completely impossible!
Even if we look at the list of high-net-worth talent training within these giant companies, the other party is definitely among the best.

Tsk, damn
Thomas let out a light sigh, and even with his state of mind, he was a little shaken at this moment.

——Even though they have been suppressed by them for many years, how can the Enlightened Ones always find such top talents? !

Thoughts came one after another and disappeared in an instant.

The man was hesitating. No, rather, he had made up his mind and was just thinking about the "gains and losses".

——This guy must be killed now.

If left alone, it would only take ten or even five years for the other party to fully grow up and become an absolute enemy of the company! Once a talent of this level enters the third ring, the difficulty of dealing with it will increase exponentially.

Groden. Glory be to you.

Therefore, he could never sit idly by and watch the enemies of "Groden" grow.

A huge amount of information was circulating in his consciousness. Looking ahead, Thomas's mind was working at a high speed, and he felt even more regretful.

——I regretted that I was too careless and did not bring the large force of Fu Bo Energy here directly!
The man thought quickly.

Let Sadohatsu hold Fast back while you kill him yourself?

No...Fast's ability doesn't make him particularly afraid of group battles. If he insists on leading his men to retreat, they will almost certainly not be able to stay.

Should he go up together with Sadohachi Tetsu to stop Fast, and let the troops at his side go up?

I'm afraid that won't work. The opponent is obviously not trying his best. To this guy, the troops on his side are probably just a "trouble" at best, not "fatal".

Thomas' heart skipped a beat.

He was considering an option. As the deputy director of the security department and a member of the Groden family, he was eligible to apply for the mobilization of Fubo Energy's space-based weapon, the "Power of the Blazing Sun" [Solar Radiation Energy Focusing Array]. - Directly let the "Power of the Blazing Sun" destroy the area with a radius of 5,000 meters here, along with everything on it!
In this non-total war period, using space-based weapons to directly attack urban areas would put even the giant company Fubo Energy in a very passive position. The Scientific Ethics Review Committee, arbitration agencies, other giant companies and corporations, and the United Government would...
These despicable mandarins who smell blood will definitely swarm over and try to take a bite of flesh, but it's all worth it as long as they can kill the other party!
But in the next moment, Thomas suddenly felt a little powerless.

Because he remembered.

Chakoro, the "rebel", the other party must be watching here.

Under the gaze of a fifth-ring psychic, even space-based weapons cannot destroy the people he protects if he wants.

Although there is a so-called agreement that extraordinary individuals of level five and above cannot take action, Thomas is unwilling to pin his victory or defeat on this.

The man exhaled slowly.

These complicated thoughts flowed for only a short moment.

He has made his final decision.

Even though it might be all in vain, or even he might die here, he still had to take action - as a member of Groden, how could he sit back and watch the threat to his family go away easily because of a mere "analysis".

In the distance, Fast narrowed his eyes.

The spiritual energy at the peak of the third ring began to surge, and the shadows that were everywhere became more and more boiling, as if they were ready to make a move.

However, silently, these shadows were sneaking towards Song Shi. Once the battle broke out, his only tactical goal was to lead the latter to retreat, even if he was attacked by surprise.

then.

This was even more subtle, and it felt like a chill even colder than the bitter cold, which was broken by a pillar of fire that shot up into the sky!
As everyone was shocked and looked over at the same time, the young man crushed the head in his hand amidst the swirling flames, turning it into ashes floating in the air.

"All the Anfu axemen are here."

As he spoke, Song Shi came to the heavy sword that was inserted into the ground.

The young man held the heavy knife tightly in one hand, but did not pull it out.

It's like announcing something.

And the next moment, the ground began to crack with the inserted heavy murder as the center!
Amidst the dull roar, the ground that had long since turned into ruins began to rise, plates collided with each other, and red-gold cracks quickly spread in a spider web-like pattern, as if the earth was flowing with blood.

In the face of this scorching heat that swept in all directions, the air turned into a scorching wind, and the ground burst into large pieces like a magma eruption.

And the spiritual energy that Ivan had left not long ago was completely expelled - no, it should be said that it was wiped out abruptly.

——Psionic Skill: [Scorched Earth].

In other words, this is the incomplete psionic skill "Scorched Earth".

If we divide it into the normal routes of "defense" and "attack", the "scorched earth" displayed by the young man at this moment is already a complete "attack".

But for Song Shi, this only had one effect, "scorched earth" in the normal sense, which was absolutely incomplete.

The part about “guarding” is still missing.

Therefore, at this moment he did not truly obtain [Scorched Earth], he just put this psychic skill in a state of "about to be born", and it had not been completely engraved.

But it can be used barely.

I have acquired five of the second ring's psychic skills, pushing the number of sparks to fourteen...

".The third ring?"

Under the gaze of everyone, Song Shi laughed loudly and pulled out the heavy sword inch by inch from the scorched earth where he stood.

"——Who's coming?"
