Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 817 Miracle Determination!

The power of faith and the divine path.

Its popularity was once for a reason: as long as there were enough believers and their faith was strong enough, the accumulated power of faith could significantly enhance the combat power of psionicists. Admittedly, this system had many limitations and side effects, but the immediate combat power it brought was still real.

This space carrier, "Eternal Dreamland," which usually serves as the headquarters of the "Dust Contract Generation," has long been considered an extremely sacred place and a divine kingdom on land by Zenryusha's followers, stirring the longing of countless people.

It has become an absolute beacon of faith, with a vast amount of faith power available for Zen to squander in an instant.

With such a glaring target, Song Shi had no choice but to fire a shot at it.

They don't deserve to call themselves psionicists!

Zenryu Setsuna sighed softly.

It was like the sorrowful lament of a nun walking through the ruins after a brutal war, seeing the corpses buried under bricks and stones.

This very lament, like a switch, illuminated the world!
Centered on the girl, the environment underwent a dramatic change. Something indescribable, like a surging tide, engulfed reality through a man-made void.

—Singularity Technology: “Based Reality Overwrite”

Both use the "base reality overlay," but if Dwight Brooks unabashedly overlays reality with the Abyss, giving a stark sense of alienation, then Zenryu Setsuna's approach is to apply a dreamlike filter, which not only avoids any discomfort but also captivates and moves the viewer.

But this captivating abyss suffered a devastating blow the very first moment it began to rewrite reality.

This attack, driven by the "annihilation" of the true spirit, possessed a destructive power that reached the point of annihilation. Before it, the Abyss, like solidified milky fat, melted away with a roar!
The fourth-ring Abyss King is said to be able to use his home-field advantage to fight against the fifth-ring Psionicists. After Dwight Brooks opened up the game, this "home-field advantage" became a standard feature for every Abyss King.

But for Song Shi now, he can shatter this home ground!

However, this was still a deep abyss of depth 6. Although it was fleeting, it still served as a buffer. In that brief moment, Zenryu Setsuna raised his hand.

The girl's right hand was raised high above her head, her five fingers spread out, as if she were holding up a treasured gem, or as if she were trying to pluck a star from the sky.

The next second, the sea of ​​flames collided with the space carrier—

The latter seemed to have ceased to be a strategic-level megastructure and instead transformed into a bowling ball in a stadium, shaken by an overwhelming force and sent flying backward!
However, the flames did not diminish. With a swing of the Heavy Slayer, before the space carrier could stabilize itself, it slammed down again. With a burst of killing power, countless collisions occurred in the blink of an eye, and the space carrier began to visibly sway precariously.

—Smash?

--inverted flight?

wrong.

The onslaught of the storm finally subsided, and Song Shi reappeared, surveying the "Land of Eternal Dreams" several kilometers away.

Compared to its initial magnificent appearance, the surface of the space carrier is now covered with countless cracks, and a chilling red gold color flows inside, as if someone had poured boiling iron onto it, which meanders and flows.

But this can only be considered an "injury".

It is clearly still some distance from true "death".

"To do a good job of defense, there are only two points," Song Shi suddenly said: "Strengthen your own defense, or weaken the enemy's attack."

“It hurts so much, it hurts so much!”

At the top of the bridge, surrounded by towering flames, Zenryusa looked much more disheveled than before. Part of her silk gloves was charred, the white and gold embroidery on her commander's uniform was stained with ash, and several small holes had secretly appeared in the small cloak draped over her shoulders.

The girl frantically brushed the sparks off her clothes.

“Strengthening the defenses is not enough with your current methods alone,” Song Shi commented.

After saying that, Zenryusatsuna stopped patting and scratched his head: "Isn't that enough?"

The flames that filled the space carrier were extinguished one by one at a visible speed, but they were not completely eradicated. The damage caused by the "annihilation" of the true spirits was like a leech, leaving indelible scars that constantly reminded others that the "Land of Eternal Dreams" could never be restored to its original state.

It was these exposed, bruised scars that revealed for the first time the barrier that should have been invisible, colorless, and imperceptible to others.

Yes, a barrier.

Centered on Zenryu Setsuna, there exists an indescribable barrier that separates the self from the outside world. It is this barrier that envelops Zenryu Setsuna and the Sky Mothership, blocking the previous offensive and containing Song Shi.

Whether it's a virtual streamer or a virtual idol, the separation between the persona and the real person, the fierce competition, the emotional expectations and fantasies projected from fans, and the complex public opinion environment all question the real person beneath the surface of the former.

Driven by the inherent nature of the industry ecosystem and for self-protection, the former's "wall of the heart" naturally came into being and has been accumulating and thickening over time.

As the world's number one virtual idol, Zenryusara naturally possesses the world's number one Heart Wall!

—Psionic Arts: The Wall of the Heart.

Song Shi could naturally discern that this classic psychic technique of the [Consensus] path used the "mind" to block "reality," thus constructing a formidable barrier. The [Wall of the Heart] supported by Zen Ryushinatsu was so strong that even a small asteroid probably couldn't break through it.

But how can the destruction of one's true spirit be compared to a mere asteroid impact?

No matter how thick, strong, or hard the mental barrier of Zen-like instants may be, it can never withstand "annihilation".

and so……

"3.2 billion miracles".

Song Shi pondered these words.

Without words, the collision of spiritual energy became a profound exchange. Even if "Song Shi" and "Zen Liu Chan Na" were complete strangers before today, having lived in the North and South Poles since birth, they would, after that collision, come to know each other.
True Spirit, First Stage.

— "The Miracle of 3.2 Billion and Hundreds of Thousands of Miracles!"
"Miracle. What a beautiful word. You, me, everyone, well, even the world needs miracles, doesn't it?"

Zenru's gentle voice rang out at just the right moment.

"A miracle. Something that seems unbelievable, impossible, and unrealistic, yet it actually happens in the end. You know what? Even someone standing in the audience, no matter how insignificant, can draw strength from witnessing a 'miracle'."

"The mother stayed by her son's bedside day after day, waking him from a vegetative state. The terminally ill patient, after being declared incurable by all means, unexpectedly recovered. The ship wrecked, and he drifted alone at sea for months, persevering until rescue arrived."

"They are inspiration, hope, and a source of new life that can transcend identity and hatred."

Song Shi laughed for real: "Does that also include giving dead virtual streamers a revival match based on the number of gold coins their fans send?"

That's only part of it.

Zenruchatana said gently.

"I want to spread 'miracles' to every corner of the world."

"I want everyone to draw courage and strength from it."
