Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 868 Returning to the Resettlement Area

The two chatted for a while longer before parting ways.

Both are symbols of their races: the Chu Bronze Furnace represents clones, while the Lapis Lazuli represents omnics. However, the former was created by propaganda, while the latter is one of the true symbols.

Now that Emerald Pharmaceuticals and Dust Contract Generations have gone bankrupt and dissolved, becoming dust of the past, and with several cloning laws being introduced one after another, there is no longer a need for Chu Copper Furnace to engage in a public relations battle with the company.

He himself had no intention of continuing, so he gradually faded from public view a year ago. Moreover, the situation was unpredictable during the war, and many new clone representatives emerged, replacing the former's niche. Now, with the daily deluge of ever-changing information, the name "Chu Tonglu" is rarely mentioned anymore.

According to what Song Shi knew, the other party had completed the entire war between the New Order Federation and the Enterprise Alliance, obtained the title of "Bronze Fierce", and had firmly stood at the peak of the third ring. At present, he went to a place to go into seclusion and vowed that he would not leave until he reached the fourth ring - [Sublimation].

But Lapis Lazuli is different; it has many things to deal with. Not only is it an omnic, but it is also a member of the [New Order Federation] Federal Parliament, a powerful member.

"Busy and bustling."

Song Shixin thought to himself, "If a busy person wants to be busy, then he can always find something to be busy with."

Instead of flying, Song Shi walked slowly across the street.

This is New Cast Light City.

Even though it's the core hub of the Enlightened Ones, heavily protected, the shadow of war inevitably lingered here, though thankfully it's over now. That's how it is for now.

The people in the business alliance have always maintained a positive attitude. Now, a quick glance around reveals that most pedestrians on the street have returned to normal and resumed their previous lifestyles.

As the invisible consciousness spread and the spiritual energy grew stronger, Song Shi felt one thing more deeply: "fragility".

The over two-hundred-story commercial building gleamed in the sunlight. Orange-red cleaning drones hovered over its exterior, spraying cleaning fluid before carefully wiping it with robotic arms equipped with rotating discs. A couple stopped to admire the Ferris wheel cake in the shop window, and the next second, a gasp of surprise came from nearby.

Two teenagers in baseball caps, riding motorized skateboards, frantically scaled walls and railings, sparks flying as their wheels scraped against the metal bars, sending pedestrians quickly scrambling to avoid them. A couple, quick as lightning, dodged in time—and then, in a flash of light, struck the two teenagers precisely.

The two men froze instantly, falling straight down and tumbling several times on the motorized skateboard. Security officers who had fired stun guns immediately pounced, handcuffed the two men, and called for a police car.

This was just a minor incident; the pedestrians, like a slowly flowing river, quickly calmed down and continued moving forward. This was nothing compared to what happened back in the day when company regulations were stricter. Would someone with a double-digit KDA even be considered a problem? It's only because things are more strictly regulated now that this little incident has been somewhat tolerated.
Song Shi was paying attention to all of this, not just what was in front of him. Even though his senses had been greatly reduced, he could still easily observe the thousands of people around him.

Everyone experiences joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. The things we are doing and the scenes around us are all, in our eyes, like a thin sheet of paper, light and transparent, which can be torn to shreds with the slightest force.

It's not a matter of mindset or perspective, but an objective description.

—Is Croft Wilder looking at himself the same way?

This "observer" was able to immobilize itself with just one strike, and even with all its might, it could only earn the right to deliver the final blow.

Fragile.

“Song Shi.” In the gift shop window, the black eyes of the fluffy electronic bear suddenly rolled, and its big face moved closer to the window, staring at the young man who happened to be passing by.

"Chaklo asked me to tell you that you will be in charge of the immigrant resettlement area for the foreseeable future."

Song Shi: "Oh."

"Also, remember to carry your electronic devices with you at all times."

"Oh"

Song Shi thought for a moment, then touched it and realized that he had carelessly tossed the data panel aside at the coffee shop not long ago and forgotten to take it with him. "But it shouldn't be a big problem. Anyway, you can easily find me by checking the security cameras."

"Develop good habits."

“You’re right,” Song Shi said decisively, raising his hand in agreement.

So the electronic bear's eyes stopped rolling, the spinning machine that had temporarily taken over its duties snapped back to its original state, and before the shop assistant could notice, it plopped back down in its original spot.

The next instant, flames shot into the sky, splitting the rolling sea of ​​clouds in two with a line of crimson gold! The flames lingered all the way to the horizon!

—The former “Anmenluo” resettlement area for immigrants.

Currently, it is the "Anmenluo" Autonomous Region.

According to the current strategic deployment of the New Order Federation, the lunar exploration base is guarded by Xu Yudu of "Factory", while the Terra mainland is guarded by Chakro and a few others. Now that a joint defense agreement has been signed with Yenan, the shortage of manpower has been greatly alleviated.

Therefore, we have spare capacity.

Therefore, Song Shi returned to "Anmenluo".

Although he lacks the ability to teleport beyond visual range, such as spatial teleportation, Song Shi can still far surpass sound with pure speed alone, so distance is not a problem for a psionicist of this level.

When Song Shi returned to Anmenluo, the place had undergone a complete transformation. The old traces originating from the Eastern Republic had been smoothed over, while the traces of the New Order Federation were deeply imprinted upon it.

As the first immigrant resettlement area liberated by the New Order Federation, it holds special significance. Coupled with its advantageous geographical location, the New Order Federation has invested considerable resources here, striving to make it an outpost for the Eastern Continent Republic. Today, it is quite prosperous.

Even the aftermath of the war did not have a significant impact on this place because a king of the abyss was always watching over it.

"Nightmare of the Masses", VE.

She had once reached a cooperation agreement with Song Shi, who would protect her, while her power would be used by Song Shi, most often for the purpose of annexing many resettlement areas of the Eastern Continent Republic.

"Why haven't you made any moves in so long?"

“Feng Lian has broken through to the third stage of True Spirit. I’m afraid if I make any moves, he will make moves against me.”

"What are you afraid of? I'm not—"

"I don't think you can beat Feng Lian."

"First of all, that's nonsense. Secondly, you don't need to fight head-on; you're the King of the Abyss, you can do it all secretly."

“Dwight Brooks is the King of the Abyss, and Zenryusatsuna is also the King of the Abyss.”

"cough."

"Of the four Abyss Kings of the Enterprise Alliance, only two are left! That bastard Ogden is nowhere to be found, so I'm the only one left on the surface!"

"Look on the bright side. You're now the second strongest Abyss King in the Enterprise Alliance."

"Don't talk to me like that if you've killed a Lord of the Abyss!"
