Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 849 Senluo Black Territory
A long-awaited experience.

Song Shi thought to himself.

People's thoughts are never aligned. Even in a situation where "people's hearts are at ease," everyone will still have their own ideas. If someone has a sudden inspiration, it is possible that, like termites building a dam, the battle will collapse in a chain reaction, resulting in a complete rout.

Fortunately, there is a solution to this problem. Various brain-controlled prosthetics, localized thought protocols, and mind synchronization adjustment devices have emerged one after another to ensure the uniformity of the team as much as possible. In ancient times, when technology was far less advanced than it is now, there was also a solution: consensus.

They can serve as platforms to bring people closer together, reduce barriers between them, and allow thoughts and hearts to blend seamlessly, forging a disciplined and effective group.

Song Shi tried this strategy.

After all, I would never get my hands on something like a mind-controlled prosthetic body, but a tool for simple communication is essential – that's the problem. Most of the environments where I take on jobs can only be described as treacherous, and signal jamming is one of the most basic disadvantages.

In this situation, if you still want to achieve timely communication, you either have to kill everyone in the room or rely on the "consensus" channel of the mind.

Song Shi found the experience of having a spiritual dialogue with someone quite peculiar, giving him a slightly unsettling feeling. However, he had little experience with teamwork in his previous life, and the same was true in this one, so he hadn't had this kind of experience in a long time.

Until now——

The psionic energy from Paddy Morse connected with Song Shi. The two exchanged ideas and coordinated in real time.

—Wandering in this boundless "Dark Realm of the Netherworld"!
An endless, boundless darkness shrouded everything, and nothing else could be seen. In the darkness, a colossal being could be vaguely seen slowly drifting about.

Darkness is the source of primal fear in humans. If someone finds themselves in it and tries to escape in a panic, no matter which direction they go or how far they run, they can never escape the darkness.

This is because the space here has undergone extreme distortion, with folds, flips, Möbius strips, and fractures forming an intricate and ever-changing labyrinth. This is the best answer to the tactic of overwhelming numbers; no matter how much conventional force is deployed, it will all be swallowed up by the Dark Domain.

Fortunately, it wasn't a massive human wave tactic that arrived.

Only two people came.

Paddy Morse coldly observed his surroundings, unable to distinguish whether the darkness was inherent to deep space, created by psionic energy, or perhaps the two had long since merged together.

Yet, even in this profound darkness, Paddy Morse still saw a relatively clear reflection. His will, imposed upon this realm, ruthlessly ravaged reality and looked down upon all things.

Spatial structure naturally falls under the category of "reality." He usually uses spatial teleportation as one of his preferred modes of transportation.

While his psionic abilities are versatile, they are inevitably shallow in depth. They are fine for simple operations, but if he were to confront a super life form like Brontë in the realm of "space," it would be suicidal.

So Paddy Morse was observing.

His will differentiated, differentiated, and differentiated again, like invisible air and thin dust, gradually spreading into the dark realm of the underworld, using the most sensitive touch to perceive this vastly different environment.

Paddy Morse revealed one by one those distorted spatial structures brimming with murderous intent. He did not choose to dismantle them by hand, as that would be too laborious and inefficient—the crimson-gold heavenly fire would blast down the moment they were revealed.

Everything was burned down.

A blazing sea of ​​flames lifted up a sun, unleashing its intense light with unbridled brilliance. This light was so dazzling and sharp that even the deepest darkness could not completely engulf it, forcibly illuminating a section of the area.

Song Shili was among them.

From a third-party perspective, this area is extremely dazzling, so bright it makes one dizzy. But its intensity is like a lamp in the dark, seemingly about to pop out at any moment.

Song Shi clicked his tongue. Although he didn't want to admit it, the fact was that he was being suppressed in the game.

Solomon Beaufort has cultivated his expertise at Xiyue for decades, and now, with the help of Brontë's spatial control, he has finally expanded his reach, making it truly as deep and unfathomable as an abyss.

Moreover, the opponent's second stage of True Spirit, "Darkness of the Abyss," also focuses on enhancing the field. With the triple superposition, even though I had activated True Spirit "Manifestation," I still couldn't break through this dark domain of the underworld.

—Chakro had already twisted off Pavs' head.

As a result, my own team is dragging its feet and procrastinating. If this continues, won't I end up not getting a single kill?!

Song Shi grasped Chong Shi's palm, gently stroking it, and then paused.

"Paddy, get ready to assist me."

Song Shi slowly raised his heavy sword, his pupils reflecting the color of glass, piercing through the darkness and reaching the distant celestial body.

A glimpse of the sky.
Try to pierce through the stars.

The Dark Domain of Senluo is indeed terrifying and extremely difficult to navigate. For ordinary people, being inside means being unable to see their own hand in front of their face and losing all five senses. Even a fifth-ring psychic would have their perception severely limited and their field of vision narrowed.

But there is at least one thing that it cannot escape or avoid.

Xiyue.

Brontë was able to create small spaces and place matter within them, but the "Evening Moon," a celestial body with a diameter of over four thousand kilometers, had exceeded the limits of what he could contain.

Although this does not affect the fact that [Fugu Pioneer] already had a plan, they attempted to create a super-giant spatial crevice through the pinnacle of spatial engineering technology to hide Xiyue inside—through such a great project, to achieve a complete monopoly over Xiyue.

Upon realizing this, the [Central Hub] launched a counterattack without hesitation. The conflict between the two sides resulted in massive economic losses and millions of casualties. In the end, it even nearly led to the outbreak of the Fifth Total Corporate War.

Fortunately, on the eve of the outbreak, several large corporations and the Security Bureau, out of self-interest, did not want to see a full-scale war, and after several rounds of negotiations and conflicts, the two sides were prevented from engaging in conflict.

“I object,” Paddy replied instantly. The two were now telepathically connected, and he understood what Song Shi wanted to do the moment he spoke.

"I object," he emphasized.

"If the battle is close and the situation is unclear, I will not say a word against it, but at present, we are in the advantageous position."

Instead of using telepathic communication, he opted for the inefficient method of speaking: "Song Shi, we just need to stall for time—Chakolo won't lose, and Yvette and Xu Yu will both win, even with two against one."

"No matter which side wins first, there will be a turning point here."

"You must directly attack Xiyue. You are the [Great Source], and the destructive power of your psionic energy is so extreme. Xiyue and Terra are strongly linked! If you cause significant damage to Xiyue, our country will suffer enormous losses, and disasters will increase dramatically."

same moment.

Suddenly, a gap was torn open in the dark domain of Senluo, as if the night sky was turning a pale white, and someone rudely barged in!
The fifth ring's "truth" is "perpetual cycle".

— Yvette Gregory!
