Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 726 Situation Map
Lightcasting City.

The Enlightened Ones Base, 75th floor underground.

There are three people and a textile machine here.

"long time no see."

Song Shi greeted the holographic projection next to him. The projection of the textile machine was still the same as before, and it chose a highly realistic mechanical textile machine.

This time when I returned to Zhuguang City, there were not many familiar faces.

Just as Chu Tonglu said, he planned to take advantage of the brief gap before the war officially broke out to travel and take a good look at the world. He had left the Corporate Alliance a month ago.

Ai Lu is not in New Yalomen Bay, nor in Casting Light City. He is probably hiding his identity and continuing his assassination business in some unknown corner of the Enterprise Alliance. Ai Lu is undoubtedly a ruthless character, but there are also many ruthless characters in the company. It is likely that Ai Lu's road will not be easy.

Harold and the others have been staying in Palose, chatting online for a while, saying that they are all doing well. Their identities are both a huge risk and a strong protection.

The company definitely considered the option of capturing them to threaten itself, but no company was willing to bear the consequences of provoking itself - provoking a fifth-ring psychic.

"Hello, Song Shi." The loom replied. It was clearly not a human being, but its tone was somewhat complicated: "It's been a while since we last met. I didn't expect that you would break through the fifth ring, [True Spirit], so efficiently."

"You're too flattering." Song Shi waved his hand modestly: "These are all my achievements."

"A fifth-ring psychic. Let me think about it. Well, according to the customs of you East Continent people."

On the other side, a woman with her arms folded, her body made of platinum metal and covered with joint marks. The only Abyss Lord of the Enlightened Ones, "Big Platinum Flower" Sang Jiali smiled and spoke in the Eastern dialect in a clear and melodious voice: "Song Shi, do I need to kowtow to you now?"

Chakoro knocked on the table.

He was the last person present.

"Let's get down to business."

Then, the smooth floor suddenly sank, and then a long table that could accommodate 20 people for dining appeared. However, this table was not used for dining.

In an instant, it seemed as if endless pixels emerged, swimming in this entire space like a school of fish swimming in the deep sea.

Sanjiali, or rather Sanjiali's remote incarnation, tapped a few times.

All the light spots suddenly collapsed towards the center, forming a blurry sphere, taller than a person, about three meters in diameter, quietly floating on the table.

"This is Terra." Song Shi recognized it.

"To be precise, it is the current situation model of Terra." Sang Jiali added.

Song Shi made a gesture of listening attentively.

"The battle between you and Renata, well, to be honest, you were too far away, I didn't see it, but Vaughn said he barely saw part of it. But that's not important, the key point is-"

"Ask a question." Song Shi raised his hand.

"Uh, please go on?" Sang Jiali blinked.

"Normal fourth-ring psykers' perception is indeed not strong enough to see the Empire from the Corporate Alliance. But you have another identity, the Abyss Lord of Depth 5. Didn't you hijack a few satellites to see indirectly?"

"This idea is a bit idealistic." San Jiali laughed dumbly: "The two giant companies [Zenith Center] and [Chrono Pass] have monopolized the satellite business and upstream and downstream industrial chains of the Enterprise Alliance. Any spacecraft sent without permission will be shot down, so we, the Enlightened, do not have our own satellites."

"Of course, this is the surface. In reality, we have added backdoors to some satellites over the years, so that we can temporarily take over and use them when needed. But they certainly cannot be used to observe your battle." Sang Jiali paused: "As for the second half of your sentence, well, the Empire's technical strength in the field of network is indeed not as good as ours, but we can fight across borders and hack into their territory alone."

"On the premise that we are not discovered." She said frankly: "I am not very sure."

Song Shi understood.

"If I were to say it from a boastful perspective, I would say that your battle with Renata Clemens became the fuse for a new round of the Seven Earth War. Unfortunately, it wasn't, at least not completely."

Sanjali stopped smiling.

"The Grand Marshal of the Beiting Defense Front ascended the [Divine Throne] to fight against Fu Lantu, and the two sides are still fighting in space. This has also led to an extremely tense situation in the East Continent, according to the information we currently have."

As she spoke, the map of the East Continent on the Terra planet model suddenly enlarged, with scarlet dots flashing and red arrows drawn out, slowly moving towards the border.

A large number of pop-up windows popped up from the side, and countless information rushed down, which were introductions and analyses of existing data.

"The main military group of the East Land Republic [Zhongdu Four Divisions] has begun to mobilize, and the 'Mountain Division' and 'Forest Division' have rushed to the border to garrison. The Council of Knowledge has issued an official announcement, immediately refusing all external visits. They have entered a blockade state, and no one knows their specific intentions at the moment."

Sanjiali paused and said solemnly, "But one thing is certain, they have extremely dangerous technological weapons in their hands."

"Where is the Beiting Defense Front?" Song Shi browsed the pop-up window.

"The Beiting Defense Front has recalled almost all personnel who were traveling abroad. Lieutenants, colonels, generals, and third-rank officers have all returned to the headquarters, and the second, third, and fourth corps have also begun to assemble."

"The Four Brilliant Heavens held a grand sacrifice. The Four Brilliant Leaders and their Eight Guardians were all present. It is speculated that they are gradually entering a state of total mobilization."

"The four great leaders are all here. We really have to do something big now."

Song Shi seemed to be thinking about something. [Si Huang Tian] consists of four major branches: Qing Huang, Chi Huang, Hei Huang and Bai Huang. There have always been contradictions and conflicts among them. However, this time the leaders of the Four Huangs and the Eight Guards under their command all gathered together. These core figures of the Four Huangs held a grand sacrifice together.

At this point in time when undercurrents were surging among all parties in the Pan-Eastern Continental Federation, Si Huangtian also did not stop.

Song Shi calmed down and absorbed the information on the map. These political entities in charge of East Land were indeed carrying out large-scale military mobilization and deployment, but a subtle point was that they all exercised great restraint towards each other and focused almost all their attention on the East Land border line that they were responsible for.

Are they all waiting for the outcome of the battle between the Grand Marshal and Fu Lantu? Song Shi shifted his gaze from the East Land to the other side.

"The two great knight orders of the Vampsta Empire, the [Square Stone] and the [Holy Crown], conducted a large-scale military exercise in the wasteland." Following the other party's line of sight, the spinning machine took over the conversation: "The direction they are aiming at is the East Continent."

"Yenan?" Song Shi asked again.

"Yenan's movements in this regard are more intense than I expected." The textile machine said in a deep voice: "According to incomplete statistics, at least more than 25,000 rangers have been sent to the wasteland to perform preliminary reconnaissance missions. The military groups under the names of the Justice Army, Wuzong, and the Second National Assembly have all switched to wartime status and are ready to go."

"Yenan's first target is the Enterprise Alliance. The Protection Agreement and Haita Trade have assumed the responsibility of electronic warfare. During the time you were asleep, they and the company have fought several rounds in the surface network and the abyss."

"If it wasn't fierce, Ye Nan wouldn't have been established in the first place." Song Shi said calmly: "It was born to conquer the whole world."

The situation is explosive.
Song Shi took a look and found that the current situation in Terra was only one spark away. No matter who ignited this spark, the flames of destruction would burn all over Terra unstoppably.

Whose hands will ignite this spark?
"——Does the highlight have to be told last?"

Song Shi said slowly.

"What about the Enterprise Alliance? Are they preparing to explode with Ye Nan right away?"

“——This is the focus of this meeting.”

Chakoro reached out and touched the model, and the sphere suddenly spun and moved to the territory of the corporate alliance.

"We have used New Yaromon Bay and Forged Light City as the fulcrums to build a dual metropolitan area and transportation network to support each other. Compared to when the Enlightened Ones had the largest sphere of influence, our current territory is much smaller, but the stability of this territory is significantly better than it was back then."

Chakoro looked around at everyone.

After the battle of Forging Light City, although the major companies had to admit that Forging Light City was handed over to others, they also launched a long-lasting pursuit and blockade, trying to imprison the Enlighteners and trap them in a corner.

There was a brief ceasefire during this period, but the outbreak of the Sky Data Tower Battle reignited the war and continued to promote a high-intensity encirclement and suppression - the company achieved remarkable results.

New Yaromon Bay and Forged Light City are more stable than before, but other than that, the Enlightened Ones' sphere of influence has been greatly compressed. Faced with the company's thundering force, many local branches have been uprooted and rivers of blood have flowed.

This is also the reason why many anti-corporate organizations that once made a sensation, though they were winning a lot, suddenly collapsed and disappeared. The same loss may only make the company frown when reading the report on Monday, but it is enough to hurt these anti-corporate organizations.

Relying on the foundation established by their ancestors and with the support of two fifth-ring masters, Xu Yudu and Chakolo Vaughan, the Enlightened One would naturally not have ended up like this, but he still suffered considerable damage.

"New Yalomon Bay is located on the border, facing the East Land Republic. Once the war officially breaks out, we, the Enlightened Ones, will have to face the first wave of attacks from the East Land Republic." Chakoro said word by word, "We must not retreat."

"The primary target of the Holy War of the Vanpusta Empire is the East Continent." Song Shi tapped the table with his index finger. "None of the knights of the Six Pillars of the Knights Templar, the mechanical troops of the Medney Agency, and the monks of the state religion who have been blessed by the Holy Spirit are easy to deal with. The East Road Republic may not have the spare energy to fight back."

"But what you said is not wrong. The East Land Republic will not be willing to simply take a beating. It will definitely take something big. We must be on guard."

"Xu Yudu has arrived at New Yaromon Bay. He will guard the place well." Chakolo said.

".That's not right." Song Shi suddenly said: "After all, everyone is still in the preparation stage and has not really fought yet."

He raised his eyes and looked at the other person: "You asked me to come here not just to tell me the movements of various parties, right?"

"Yes." Chakoro admitted without hesitation: "The situation is indeed becoming more and more tense, but the focus of our current attention is not outside."

"——[Emerald Pharmaceuticals]." he said.

Giant enterprise, [Emerald Pharmaceuticals].

The true ruler of the corporate alliance, one of the nine gods occupying the sky, and the ultimate winner of the last all-out corporate war.

It joined forces with [Time Passage], which was not a giant enterprise at the time, and defeated another giant enterprise [Pure White Creature]. The former swallowed up the assets, and the latter stepped on the corpses to ascend the throne of the new giant enterprise.

Today, Jade Pharmaceuticals has become the absolute leader in the fields of bioengineering, medical technology, implants, and prostheses, and its strength ranks among the top nine giant companies. For example, another giant company, Fubo Energy, is not only seriously injured now, but even in its heyday when it built Zhuguang City, it may not be as powerful as Jade Pharmaceuticals today.

——Palosser, where he used to work, is a typical example of a city ruled by Emerald Pharmaceuticals.

In order to obtain valuable data, they secretly administered chemicals to the locals through the controlled food and water supply networks, attempting to transform the slums of Palouse into a biological culture dish for observing "humans". The achievements of bioengineering were witnessed in the repeated dissemination, promotion and evolution of hundreds of thousands of people.

Lopulas massacre, underground farm incident, Baghdad plague, third-type parasite spore leakage case, medical marketization reform
The "Three-Phase-Based Plan" that had failed in Palose was just a tiny jewel in the crown of [Emerald Pharmaceuticals].

"What are they planning to do?" Song Shi asked bluntly.

"Let me tell you." Sang Jiali sighed softly: "Song Shi, you first dealt with the intelligent machines, then went to the Empire, and you have been sleeping since you came back. Especially since you don't have a prosthesis implanted, the news push can't be pushed to your face, so you probably didn't notice one thing."

She clapped her hands.

The eyes of the mechanical body lit up, and it projected a series of holographic projections, including tweets, interview programs, and pre-promotion videos, all of which were the excessive publicity offensive in recent months. Song Shi quickly glanced at them, taking in everything, and distilled the key points.

To put it simply, Jade Pharmaceuticals is about to launch a groundbreaking product that is bound to take the whole world by storm. The big one is coming soon, the big one is really coming.

Then the official launch will be on.
Three days later?
"Although it is common for promotional content to focus on physical objects, I will temporarily believe what Jade Pharmaceuticals said." Song Shi raised his eyebrows: "How epoch-making is it? A potion that guarantees that you can awaken your spiritual power with just one injection? I remember that this thing has been around for decades, but unfortunately none of them are real."

Sanjiali didn't respond.

"According to the intelligence we have currently obtained, Emerald Pharmaceuticals is ready to restart."

She said solemnly.

"Clone."
