Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 286 Getting what you want

When the stream of red-gold flames streaked across the sky above the town, even the sunlight, which had become increasingly dazzling in recent days, dimmed.

Old Som's mansion was located in the center of the town. It was a three-story villa with a large courtyard. It was so eye-catching among the dilapidated buildings nearby. The next moment, a scorching stream of flames broke through the air from afar and smashed directly into the villa courtyard!

boom!
Amid the rising and splashing flames, Song Shi walked out and looked around.

Under his feet, with the landing point as the center, a large pit with a radius of several meters appeared, which was filled with molten pulp. Even if he deliberately did not use "Liaoyuan", the black and red pit was still slowly spreading.

"Let's move around a bit."

Song Shi walked towards the main entrance of the villa. His steps were not fast, and could even be described as leisurely.

In this slow pace, some people finally reacted. For their own safety and convenience, most of Old Som's men lived near the mansion to protect their boss.

The three strong men swallowed the pills, grabbed the plasma rifle and were ready to shoot. Another of their companions also drew the plasma lightsaber from his waist, ready to pounce at any time. As the former distribution agent of Fubo Energy, Old Som bought a batch of good energy weapons through this channel to arm his men.

But Song Shi didn't even look at them, he just snapped his fingers.

With a "crack", almost at the same time, a series of electric arcs and flames exploded on the bodies of these people, puffing out - to be more precise, it was their prostheses.

"Hacker! It's a damn hacker!"

Looking at the dense scarlet pop-up windows that suddenly filled the field of vision of the artificial eye, the sturdy man with a Mohawk yelled in panic, and fell to his knees in an extremely awkward posture.

Damn it! Where did the other party come from? He took over the five of them in one encounter. You know, I spend a lot of money on the "cyborg firewall" subscription service of Zero Degree Network every month? !
But there are exceptions!

Among the five people, the one with the lowest degree of prosthetics barely maintained a certain degree of mobility. He gritted his teeth and was about to shoot, but the finger that pulled the gun suddenly exploded, blood splattered, and the rifle fell to the ground weakly.

The next second, there was the belated sound of gunfire.

"Have you checked the personal files too? Really efficient." Song Shi tilted his head slightly and exclaimed in admiration. Lapis Lazuli's information statement came from the headset. The criminal records of these five people were very rich, and each of them was qualified to be executed.

Then just kill him.

The artificial eyes were deprived of their vision and the implants were paralyzed. At this moment, these men became pure living targets. Song Shi took the opportunity to empty a magazine and blew up five heads in a row. He continued to move forward in the blood and oil all over the ground.

pat pat pat.

As Song Shi took a step forward, the control authority of the sentry gun towers hidden in the wall had been tampered with and they all fell silent. The alloy baffles that had just risen up to cover the door and windows stiffened briefly and then retracted again.

unobstructed.

"You are indeed quite rich. You even have an intelligent defense system." Song Shi casually turned the door handle and entered the villa. "But the more sophisticated something is, the easier it is to get out of control. Didn't the company that installed this defense system for you tell you?"

What greeted the young man was a violently roaring heavy energy machine gun standing at the end of the aisle.

Without choosing to beg for mercy or take the opportunity to slip away, old Som, the middle-aged man who hastily put on a bulletproof vest, sat on the gun rack with a bulging belly, and pulled the trigger with a ruthless look on his face!
“That’s more like a conversation.”

Song Shi nodded slightly and finally used his spiritual power.

Psionic Skill: [Scorched Earth].

The red-gold field unfolded silently. The gushing, shining plasma rain curtains could only create circles of red-gold ripples, but could not shake the scorched earth in the slightest. In fact, as Song Shi stepped forward, the plasma rain curtains began to retreat little by little.

Even old Som's ferocious expression, which seemed like he was fighting to the death, gradually froze in front of this scene.

Snap.

When the shadow finally covered him, Old Som was still pulling the trigger, but the overloaded red-temperature energy machine gun could no longer spit out bullets.

Song Shi grabbed the red-hot gun barrel, exerted force with his five fingers, and bent it ninety degrees. Then he extended his index finger and a spark lit up from his fingertips.

Aimed at middle-aged people.

"I'll give you a chance. Do you have anything else to say?" Song Shi signaled to Old Som that he could speak.

"You, you are the Enlightened One."

Old Som was stunned for a moment, his eyes turned resentful again: "You bastard! You——"

"Sorry, I'm an orphan." Song Shi sighed, and sparks burst into a scorching light, engulfing the machine gun and burning the other party.

"Look, my wife is divorced and my daughter is studying in a company college in another city. Then you are the only one left."

Song Shi glanced at the message sent by Lapis Lazuli, nodded, turned around and walked out of the mansion.

By this time, Lapis Lazuli had already arrived.

Unexpectedly, a short figure gasping for breath suddenly appeared behind the intelligent machine.

"Did you bring him here?" Song Shi raised his eyebrows.

Lapis Lazuli said simply, "No, he followed here on his own."

"So brave? And he's good at seizing opportunities." Song Shi laughed: "I kind of like him."

The child rushed into the courtyard, took one look at the mess in the yard, and then without hesitation, rushed to the young man in the middle: "Sir! Sir! I want to help you!"

"No need to help, I don't need it."

When the child's expression tensed up and he was about to kneel down, he heard the other party say, "But I can teach you something."

He grabbed the other person and stood up straight.

Song Shi smiled and said, "How about I teach you some psychic powers?"

When the kid heard “teach me something”, he showed his irrepressible joy, but after hearing the next sentence, he quickly shook his head: “Sir! I want to learn how to be a hacker!”

"what?"

"I saw it all—" He showed a look of admiration on his face, and even gestured with his hands: "Just now! You directly destroyed their prosthetics! It's so amazing!"

"No, no, no, learn psychic powers." Song Shi was stunned for a moment and said seriously.

"I still want to be a hacker! Just teach me a little bit!" The child shook his head vigorously and said earnestly: "I know I can't give you much! So just a little bit will do!"

".I take back what I said."

Song Shi's face darkened: "Alright, I won't teach you psychic powers anymore, and don't even think about learning hacking techniques."

The other party was stunned.

But in the end, I did learn something.

Lapis Lazuli provided a data card containing an introductory tutorial on "network technology" and handed it to the child. It was at that moment that the latter realized that he had actually met an intelligent machine.

With this tutorial, as long as you follow the steps and your talent is above the standard, it should be no problem to make a living with network technology.

After leaving the child who was thanking him profusely and crying bitterly, Lapis Lazuli provided new information after inspecting the mansion.

".Old Som has been in contact with Time Pass? Recently?" Song Shi was a little surprised: "No wonder he didn't leave Rocar right away. Time Pass probably made some promises to keep him here as a hidden player to make early arrangements for his future entry into Rocar."

"Greedy, bold, and a big gambler." Song Shi commented: "It's not a bad habit, but he lost the bet this time."

"Won't you stay a little longer?" Lapis Lazuli asked, "You just killed Old Som and his men, but the situation here is not stable yet."

"Do I have to help them find jobs and plan where they will gather?"

Song Shi asked back: "That's enough for now. They will find a way out by themselves. Everyone has to find a way out by themselves. And they can live on the wasteland. They are not as fragile as you think."

".I understand." Lapis Lazuli said after a moment of silence.

"Hehe." Song Shi yawned. "But, I have sent a message to Gwenlin. The Enlightened Ones who pass by here on their way back in the next few days will keep an eye on the situation."

As they were talking, the man and the intelligent machine walked across the street and returned to the open-air parking lot.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the luxury sedan appeared in its original appearance, facing the rolling red clouds, and once again crashed into the wasteland, billowing smoke and dust, and drove away.
