Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 767 Premonition
"Xia Le——"

Before anyone arrives, the sound comes first.

"--I'm back."

The door was pushed open.

The CEO's office, which I hadn't sat in for a long time, was still clean and tidy, maintaining the state it was in when I last left. As the CEO's office of the well-known security contractor [Jiuyu Defense], in theory, this was a confidential location, and the indoor circulation system was running day and night to prevent contamination by foreign objects.

"Haha." Xia Le laughed.

"I thought you were dissatisfied with the one-credit-point salary and decided not to come here again."

"Ah, has that video been released?" Song Shi suddenly realized and praised: "Not bad, that person is quite efficient."

Xia Lexu looked at it.

"To be honest, I can't stay too long this time." Song Shi sank into the recliner: "Come on, evaluate my performance in 'The First Clone War'."

"Something like the core key."

Xia Le stretched his hands forward, his upper body slumped on the table, and sighed: "Maybe it's because I'm not a psychic. I don't understand you, uh, fifth-ring psychics. How should I put it? I understand the theory, but I just don't have much sense of reality."

She moved her head and rubbed half of her face against the table: "Boss, do you have the ability to destroy the New Casting Light City?"

"If Cha Keluo didn't stop us." Song Shi nodded his chin and said calmly, "It wouldn't be that difficult."

"Yes, that's it." Xia Le sighed again: "Prosthetics, exoskeletons, heavy armed machinery. Including nuclear weapons, I can imagine them all. I know that bullets penetrate armor because of kinetic energy, I know the smell of ion cannons melting metal plates, and nuclear bomb explosions are mushroom clouds, high temperatures, heat waves and the like."

"But you... look at yourself." She drooped her eyebrows. "Without any implants, what's the difference between you and a natural person? But you told me that you could easily destroy an entire city and burn it to ashes - and it's true."

She tapped her head with her index finger.

"As for a psychic like you, I feel completely confused."

"People can't imagine things they haven't experienced." Song Shi smiled and said, "You can try hard and strive to awaken your spiritual power."

"I don't think it's necessary." Xia Le snorted twice: "Are psychics really superior to other professions? As long as I want, I can perform a full range of strengthening surgery and replace advanced prostheses at any time. Anyway, with the legacy of Emerald Pharmaceuticals, we are not so helpless against cyberpsychosis now."

"After such a set of tactics, even a second-level psychic may not be able to defeat me."

"First, psychics are superior to other professions." Song Shi immediately corrected: "Second, who says psychics must compete with others in fighting? Now the top spies of various forces are basically [consensus] psychics."

Xia Le smiled: "Did you forget to mention one thing? I remember that the top spy must be a "devil" at the same time."

"It has no impact." Song Shi raised his index finger and shook it.

Xia Le chuckled a few times: "You just said that you won't stay for too long. What's the next step? Do you need me to mobilize the power of [Nine Defenses] to assist?"

Song Shi thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Compared to the time of the World's No. 1 Security Conference, how many people are missing from Jiuyu Defense now?" "More than one third." When mentioning this, Xia Le put away his smile.

She stopped lying down and sat up, saying in a deep voice, "They are all elite troops, but the intensity of the war is too high."

Song Shi praised: "Not bad."

Xia Le was stunned.

After several seconds, she realized what the other person said. Xia Le's expression changed several times, as if a stone was stuck in his throat. He wanted to say something, but couldn't.

Song Shi was looking down, skimming through the last quarter's briefing of Jiuyu Defense. He noticed that the other party was suddenly silent, so he raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

However, [Liuli Guan] was as penetrating as fire, and before the other party could speak, Song Shi understood: "Oh, this is it again."

"They died on the battlefield and lost their lives. Should we be sad just because of this?" Song Shi looked directly into the other person's eyes and shook his head: "I think we should be happy. They fell on the path they practiced and sacrificed their lives by following their own hearts. Why should we be sad if they died for their ideals and goals?"

Xia Le was silent for a while, then hummed.

Her emotions were quickly calmed down, and she smiled again. "If the commander-in-chief heard this, he would definitely scold me severely. The thing I hate most is people who don't take their lives seriously. They have been thinking about self-destruction from the beginning. I have scolded many people before."

"Chakoro can resurrect the dead, do you think I can?" Song Shi spread his hands.

Song Shidao: "I'll let you in on this in advance. I'm going to fight An Menluo next."

In less than a second, Xia Le finished searching and browsing "Anmenluo". As she pondered, her eyes gradually lit up: "The resettlement area makes sense! It's definitely worth a try!"

Now the Enlightened Ones have two battle fronts. One is the confrontation with the company around the City of Forged Light and the Rockal Plain. There are constant small conflicts, but the overall stalemate is still. The other is the coastal defense line built with the New Yaromon Bay as the center, and this line is generally at a disadvantage.

After all, the [Donglu Republic] is a powerful force that has been entrenched in Donglu for hundreds of years. If we trace its roots, most of the ancestors of the major families in the country today have produced prominent figures, and can even be traced back to the "Zhongtian Divine Court" thousands of years ago. It has a long history and profound heritage.

In the conventional war between high-level psychics and strategic-level armed forces, the East Land Republic relied on the vast military force accumulated over the years to suppress the Enlightened.

However, it was just a suppression, not unstoppable or overwhelming. As a member of the corporate alliance, the latter also maintained the advantage of excellent technical strength, and with the successive reinforcement of textile machines and jade pharmaceutical heritage, it was able to hold off the East Land Republic.

"The main force of the East Land Republic is not in the corporate alliance, but against the Vanpusta Empire. The Empire has already attacked their homeland, and the two sides are in a stalemate." Xia Le pondered: "Their strength is tight, and they are bound to relax their attention in the immigration resettlement area. The resistance to attacking Anmenluo will not be too great. This can also ease the pressure on the defense line of New Yaromen Bay."

"I understand." She raised her head: "I will make arrangements. [Nine Defense] will switch to the first level combat readiness state, gather employees, and wait for the expedition."

"Go ahead. Jiuyu Defense is an elite force, so you will have room to show your abilities."

Song Shi nodded.

"In four months at the latest, I want to sit in the Protectorate of Anmen Luo openly and honestly."
