Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 900 Meeting the Real Person
If we consider the Abyss as a projection of reality, the farther away we are, the worse the signal becomes, and the more distorted the "projection" will be, with the deviation constantly increasing.

Depth 7, as the bottom of the abyss, also follows this principle. Its distortion has reached a point that makes Song Shi feel uncomfortable; everything he sees and feels is in a structure completely different from reality.

Following the location sent by Ogden, VE led the way, guiding Song Shi as they slowly swam there.

The world fell into an eerie silence. It wasn't truly deathly silent; the "world's" last remaining artifact was still raging, unleashing a torrent of energy. Song Shi witnessed a mountain-sized wind-up rat being pulverized into dust by the raging flood and dying instantly.

But apart from that, there was no movement of any "humans".

Six Abyss Kings were poured into Depth 7 in one go, but none of them have shown themselves yet. They've all hidden themselves away, keeping quiet and well-hidden.

Song Shi understood. It seemed that not only VE had a way, but the others were also quite capable, temporarily avoiding confrontation and hiding their identities.

“I have to make one thing clear beforehand,” VE said, scratching his fringe. “I can keep us out of this big guy’s sight for who knows how long.”

"Is it because of these lights?" Song Shi asked.

VE glanced at the other person with slight surprise, then nodded: "So perceptive? Yes, it's these lights."

There was no need to focus on any particular spot; Song Shi's pupils were filled with bright white light, illuminating Depth 7 as if he were in an operating room under a shadowless lamp.

Song Shi couldn't explain the nature of these white lights; perhaps they were some kind of special detection program. But he could describe his intuitive "feelings."

These white lights swept across a depth of 7, like ubiquitous cameras, seemingly searching for something.

"First of all, given the character of the person above, I don't think Depth 7 would act so openly and honestly." Song Shi withdrew his gaze: "So..."

“You believe it was modified,” VE said, finishing the sentence for the other person: “You believe it’s looking for Ogden.”

"It's an obvious fact that Ogden is dishonest." Song Shi shrugged. "Who knows what heinous things he's done here? Maybe he angered this guy? Don't you think that makes sense?"

VE said, "Uh, we've arrived."

There are always some people who like to gossip behind other people's backs.

Then, a sinister voice came from deep within the sewers.

Yes, the sewers.

Following the coordinates, Song Shi and VE arrived at a sewer network comparable in size to a city. They crawled in through the opening and walked for a while before finally finding the source of the sound.

What came into view was a boy sitting rudely in the corner, his face grim. His once gold- and silver-inlaid staff was nowhere to be seen, and his magnificent robes, a masterpiece of art, had been stripped off and haphazardly stuffed under his buttocks.

The undefeated "King of Wizards," who has roamed the internet without a single defeat, the undisputed No. 1 Abyss King of Terra, the only demon to have tasted the full seven-headed soup of Depth, is also Song Shi's target on this trip.
—Ogden Christopher.

"Hiss." Song Shi didn't answer. He looked him up and down for a while, then touched his chin: "Dear Mr. Ogden, do you look a little pale?"

Upon hearing this, Ogden twitched the corners of his mouth, his already unpleasant expression turning even more gloomy.

But that's not what Song Shi was talking about. It's not just that.

All you could see was Ogden Christopher, his face, his hands, his abdomen. Most of the body of this "Wizard King" was pale, like the aftermath of burning paper money. At first glance, it looked like a figure that had only been partially painted!

Along with this, the other party gave Song Shi an unusually low and extremely weak feeling.

He had first engaged in a chaotic battle, then unleashed the [Gap in Heaven], and even blocked an attack from a remnant of the "World." His condition was definitely not good; he estimated that his current strength was about half of what it was at its peak.

But when it comes to Ogden Christopher in front of him, he can say that he is absolutely flawless.

“You have a book—” Ogden couldn’t stand being looked up and down by Song Shi and was about to explode. “VE, go up and punch him.”

Song Shi snapped his fingers.

"Remember to slap him in the face."

VE was taken aback at first, but then realized what was happening and immediately rolled up his sleeves, eager to get started.

"you--!"

Ogden was instantly enraged, his anger compounded, but seeing VE closing in, he decisively swallowed his anger: "Let's get down to business! Let's get down to business!"

"Ah, VE, no rush then. Let's save this punch for him first." Song Shi said calmly, as if nothing had happened. "How about this, my most respected Ogden brother, I'll ask and you answer, shall we?"

“Of course, you also have the right to ask questions,” Song Shi said with a smile.

Ogden stared, his teeth grinding together.

How did you manage to break through the barrier?

first question.

VE pricked up her ears, she was the most curious. She admitted that she was not as good as Ogden, but could the gap really be that big?
To know that he had entered Depth 7, it was only through a fierce battle between seven top fighters, including Song Shi, Orian Kog, Shi Quanwei, and himself, that the barrier that "the world" still harbored treacherous intentions was forcibly blasted open.

As for Ogden...
To put it bluntly, VE said that while this bastard was strong, he wasn't particularly strong. At least in a one-on-one fight, Song Shi next to him would definitely beat him up.

"Your judgment is as bad as ever." Song Shi asked the question, but Ogden was looking at VE. He couldn't help but chuckle, "What, the answer is right there in the open, can't you even see it?"

"—Primal psionic energy 'Infinite Power'." Song Shi pondered, "This is the key point, but it's definitely not enough on its own. VE, what do you think?"

VE didn't answer immediately. She carefully observed the boy, her brows sometimes furrowing and sometimes relaxing. She pursed her lips and after a long while, she slowly spoke.

"Slow penetration. Infinite power." She muttered to herself, repeatedly repeating, "Data diversion. Substitute."

Finally, she seemed to have figured things out and exclaimed incredulously, "Aren't you afraid to send it?!"

“Hmph.” Ogden placed his hands flat on his knees: “That’s why I can get into Depth 7, while you can only follow behind and eat the exhaust fumes.”

VE has roughly figured it out!
Although some technical principles and details are still open to discussion, she has already figured out the general idea!
The primal psychic energy "Infinite Power" is like an infinitely divided calculus, dividing "Ogden Christopher" into countless parts, and from these countless parts, infinity is achieved, resulting in a power that cannot be ignored.

But even with "infinite power," the barrier remained unbreakable.
Ogden Christopher didn't just brute force his way through!
This guy, VE thought to himself, used the power of the Abyss King to completely digitize himself, and then paired each piece of data with an infinite power, dividing it into countless massive amounts of data.

If a wall is subjected to high-frequency vibrations, a person can miraculously "pass through walls".

Ogden Christopher uses astonishing technology to capture the frequency of storm circulation and adjusts himself in real time to adapt. At the same time, based on the theory of slow penetration, he allows segments of infinite force and data to slowly permeate through the barrier.

Until Depth 7, it was reorganized again as "Ogden Christopher".

Even after understanding the principle, VE was still amazed. The method was simple to summarize, but she could easily think of many technical difficulties in its implementation, each of which she found extremely challenging.

But Ogden did it.

And
He ended up half-dead.
