Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 240: Light Stealer Plan and Suishi

"Don't interrupt."

Chakoro knocked on the table.

"I believe you have heard of Ishua Groden. According to my intelligence, he will play the most important role in this Sun Celebration."

Before Song Shi could speak, he directly told the result: "Ishua will play 'Dadasoya' in the celebration's Ring City Airship Theater."

After the conversation, the two looked at each other for a few seconds.

Then Song Shi leaned back and said, "Wait a minute, I know that mythological drama performances are a regular part of the Sun Festival. This 'Dadasoya' is most likely a character in mythology, but what exactly does he do?"

"Dadasoya is the seventh son of the sun god in Rokar mythology."

Lapis Lazuli explained at the right time. Its consciousness swept across the network and quickly integrated relevant information: "Because the mortal king was disrespectful to the Queen of Gods, the Sun God was furious and stuffed the sun into a golden glass bottle, bringing eternal darkness and night to the mortal world."

"On the first dark night, the ground cracked. On the second dark night, the river water became turbid. On the third dark night, the bread in the cellar became moldy." Lapis Lazuli quickly repeated: "On the twelfth day, Dadasoya could no longer bear it. He prayed to his father at the banquet to end the eternal night of the mortal world."

"The sun god was furious, and in front of all the gods, he whipped Dadasoya three times and expelled him from the banquet."

"Dadasoya returned home, covered his face and cried, but did not give up. He took advantage of the gods gathering for a banquet and stole the oldest and most mellow wine from the god of wine's house. He disguised himself as a servant, sneaked into the kitchen behind the banquet, and poured all the wine into the wine fountain surrounding the banquet, making the gods drunk for three days."

"When the sun god was drunk, Dadasoya took the wine cup from his father's hand and took off the golden bottle from his waist. He filled the wine cup with the sunlight flowing from the bottle, ran around the world for three days, and splashed it on the mortal world."

"Before sunrise on the third day, Dadasoya's entire body had been burned to the point of disfigurement by the scorching sun. Three days of running around the world had also exhausted him, and he died before sunrise."

"When the gods woke up from their drunkenness, they were shocked to see everything was completely different. They thought the sun god would be angry, but surprisingly, this time, after seven days of silence, the sun god pardoned Dadasoya's sins and did not send down eternal darkness and night again."

"In order to commemorate Dadasoya's great achievements, people in the mortal world called him."

"——【Light Thief】." Chakoro said slowly.

"Nineteen days later, Fubo Energy will use Ishya's mouth to announce at the Sun Festival that in the next quarter, a number of low-cost preferential energy supply services will be added to the Rockal Plains."

Song Shi was stunned for a moment, then he slowly sat up straight and suddenly laughed: "That really is the Light Thief."

Eshua Groden, who carries fame and reputation, successfully stole a ray of sunshine from the hands of the high gods and obtained tangible benefits for the people of the mortal world.

It is moving and inspiring.

"It's a shift in public opinion." Lapis Lazuli seemed to be shocked for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Fubo Energy wants to eliminate your foundation."

And the moment he heard Chakolo's words, Song Shi of course understood this.

The significance of Fubo Energy doing this is clearly to transfer most of the contributions made by the Enlightened Ones over the years, this precious asset, to "Eshua Groden"!
The concessions and compromises of [Fubo Energy], those real and personally tangible benefits, came from Ishua's persistent struggle, even at the cost of betraying his family.

As for the Enlightened Ones, what have they done besides inflicting scars on the city through their violent armed activities?
——The only difference between them and those armed organizations that fly more noble banners than others but are actually greedy for money is that the banners they fly are louder.

"If we really start a war of public opinion, Qimingzhe is no match at all. Compared with the company, the propaganda line we control is still too limited."

Chakoro's tone was very calm, but within this calmness, there was a hint of undisguised coldness: "Fortunately, we have always been better at the other path."

"So, you guys want to ruin the celebration?"

"You can say that."

Chakoro's eyes were bright: "Forged Light City, no, Rokar Plain, does not need this kind of charity."

"No need?" Song Shi propped up his chin with one hand: "This is a real benefit. If you come out to disrupt the situation, most people will definitely scold the Enlightened Ones. Of course, even if you don't come out, most people will still scold you."

Chakoro's expression did not change at all. He raised his eyes and spoke solemnly, emphasizing each word: "So, not long after that, I will bring them real sunshine!"

A brief moment of silence.

Then, Song Shi laughed out loud.

"Since you've said that, how can I just stand by and watch such a big thing? Of course I have to go down and give it a try!" Song Shi stood up, holding down the table with one hand, staring at Cha Keluo, his eyes burning with fire, and from the burning fire, there was undisguised joy: "What do you want to do?"

"On the second day of the celebration, the airship theater will perform while circling most of Lightforge City. We have to disrupt the performance when the Light Thief is about to steal the sun and announce the preferential plan."

"Benefits for the people?" Chakoro said coldly, "Just take a small portion of the profits you squeeze out and sprinkle it down as a generous handout. Even with those discounts, the prices of the services involved can only be said to be 'no longer expensive', and they are not cheap at all."

"Destroy the show, and then show everyone our energy supply regulations in Districts 3 and 4. They should and must know what is truly 'reasonable'."

"It sounds like it will be very troublesome." Song Shi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Fubo Energy must have considered this situation. Maybe they have ambushed a large group of experts long ago, waiting for you to send someone to rush in."

"Yes, so I have been hesitating about the candidate." Cha Ke Luo did not deny it and said frankly: "In this kind of situation, the power of a second-ring psychic is still a little low. For a third-ring psychic, the energy level is too high and it is difficult to conceal itself. I am afraid that it will be detected by the Fubo Energy before the airship approaches."

"I originally wanted Myron to be the main force. You should know him, right? When the geothermal power plant branch was deployed."

"I have some impression." Song Shi recalled and nodded: "I remember he played pretty well. He is a pretty good candidate."

Myron Bana, a member of the Illuminators, is at the pinnacle of the second ring of [Truth].

His psychic power, to be precise, his truth is "speed", absolute speed.

When he was at the peak of the first ring, under extreme conditions, he could achieve with his pure physical body the reflex speed comparable to that of a cyborg with a "neural acceleration prosthesis".

After joining the Enlightened Ones, he realized that his psychic power limit was probably only at the third level. He chose another way to increase his combat power without hesitation, that is, cyborgization.

Although he is not [surpassed] and does not have the same terrifying prosthetic adaptability and upper limit as the former, but as a second-ring psychic, his adaptability is still much stronger than that of ordinary people.

After a long period of continuous transformation, with the psychic power of the peak of the second ring and a full set of high-standard implants that the Enlightened One had spent a lot of money on, Myron's strength had reached the level of a "fourth-level unit".

In fact, it’s not weak.

However, this kind of operation of not trusting one's own [truth] to a certain extent and turning to other external things will also make Myron's psychic path much more difficult. However, considering that his own goal is only the third ring - in the future, he still has a considerable chance of achieving this goal.

As for now
"I have confidence in Myron." Cha Ke Luo said seriously, "But I have more confidence in you, Song Shi. I didn't expect that you would reach the peak of the second ring so quickly."

Song Shi seemed a little surprised: "You don't want to say"

"Infiltrate the scene as a second-level psychic." Chakoro said, "Then, break through to the third level on site, and with the cooperation of Myron and the others, give Fubo Energy a surprise."

"Promotion is such a dangerous thing, and you actually plan to let me do it surrounded by enemies? Isn't that a bit inhumane?" Song Shi slowly laughed.

Chakoro also laughed: "Can't you do it?"

"That depends." Song Shi smiled and said slowly, "How much is the price you offer?"

"There really is no more Zero Element Crystal suitable for you."

Chakoro spread his hands: "But there is a ceremony to obtain psychic skills. It will be open to you when the time comes. You can choose it yourself?"

"Are there any good things? What if they are just common goods? Wouldn't that be amazing?"

"Watch your words. You look down on the family background of the Enlightened One." Chakoro looked very confident. "I can't guarantee anything else, but at least there is one psychic skill that you can definitely use."

"what?"

"【Sui Shi】."

"Flint?" Song Shi was slightly startled. "Although this thing is not a common product, it is just above average. This is also called..."

The young man suddenly realized something, and his expression changed slightly: "So?"

Chakoro smiled with satisfaction and repeated: "——【Sui Shi】."
