Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 906 The Plan in Progress (Promax)
Let's turn back time to a earlier period.

"While I personally wouldn't mind exchanging a few blows with it," Song Shiyi waved his hand righteously, "it still depends on the time and the occasion. If I were to be the first to confront it head-on, wouldn't that only cause pain to my friends and joy to my enemies?"

The ephemeral nature of this world, the watchdog left behind by this "world," the mythical Leviathan entrenched at depth 7—if we were to compare its danger level to that of a psionicist, Song Shi estimated that it was somewhere slightly stronger than the second stage [True Spirit].

Of course, this is just talk on paper.

With Song Shi's insight, he could make a deeper judgment—if he found a top-tier second-stage [True Spirit], such as himself at his peak, and the two clashed head-on one-on-one, the Floating World Transformation would most likely be no match for him.

Compared to top-tier spiritualists who have undergone countless trials and tribulations, the Metamorphosis of the Floating World inevitably appears clumsy and dull.

However, the Metamorphosis of the Floating World is not without its flaws. It wields extremely vast and surging power, and can also leverage the advantages of the Abyss at a depth of 7.

These things are merely entry tickets to compete on the same stage for players of the same level, but become insurmountable barriers for opponents who are significantly weaker than themselves.

In short, it's all about overwhelming force, allowing for unlimited error tolerance, and its main strategy is to use sheer power to intimidate others.

This results in the theoretical combat power of the Floating World Transformation being at the second stage [True Spirit], but if a battle with a point difference occurs, it can be comparable to a third stage [True Spirit]!
This is why the ephemeral nature of the world weighed down the eight intruders, making them unable to lift their heads.

Song Shi refused to be the one to stick his neck out.

Ogden scoffed from the side, "Come on, I see you've done plenty of stupid suicide attempts on your resume."

"I've done some calculations, and the success rate is no less than 73%." VE, who had been silent for a while, sometimes biting her nails and sometimes scratching her hair, suddenly spoke up: "Overall, I haven't seen any problems yet, but there are still a few technical issues at the practical application level."

“The message has been sent.” Ogden pulled up his sleeve. “There are still eleven hours until the agreed time.”

He tapped the air with his index finger, setting up a temporary domain and opening a link to VE.

“A perfect score is ten. Hey, VE, how many points would you give yourself for your work efficiency?” Ogden glanced at him sideways with a disdainful look, and before the other could speak, he raised his chin: “No matter how many, give me a hundred points right now.”

The Archimedes machine moved around nearby, equally engaged in its work.

Song Shi also had a task to complete, but according to the order, it was the last step—

—“Carrier”.

This is the plan.

Although he contacted others and rallied them to attack the Floating World, Song Shi didn't really intend to waste time on it. Taking VE and Ogden with him was the top priority.

The problem lies here: if I don't make the first move, given the personalities of the other Abyss Kings, they clearly won't get involved. Empty promises alone won't convince them; if I don't take the lead, they'd rather stand by and watch than participate.

But if he were to be the first to strike, most of the hatred from the Floating World would fall on him, and with the subtle restraints from others, there would be absolutely no chance of escaping successfully. Therefore...

Song Shi must do two things: first, take the lead in launching the first attack in full view of everyone, driving others to join the fray; second, escape from the battlefield, seizing the brief opportunity when the Floating World's Metamorphosis is in pain and thrashing, creating a gap in the blocked void, and escape from Depth 7.

These two points are contradictory, but with VE and Ogden present, the three of them discussed it and came up with a solution that was compatible with both.

Thanks to its experience in distributing "carriers" everywhere, VE is an authority among authorities and a veteran among veterans in the field of how to deliver power beyond visual range.

She and Ogden worked urgently to create a "vessel" to hold Song Shi's spiritual energy. It had a limit; it could only withstand the power of one strike from Song Shi at most. After that, it would be instantly reduced to ashes.

But what Song Shi wanted was this "single blow"!
After the "carrier" was urgently created, Song Shi injected several sparks into it as a power source. At the same time, he spent a lot of effort to meticulously render the "carrier" so that it was imbued with Song Shi's aura, striving for realism.

However, even with the combined power of Ogden and VE, this was still a rushed project. Some minor flaws and problems could not be fixed in time. They had also prepared themselves for the possibility that the "carrier" might be hit halfway through and suddenly collapse.

Ultimately, however, the result was quite satisfactory!

A violent, dizzying impact crashed down, but Song Shi laughed heartily as he dragged Ogden and VE close in on the gaping hole.

Further away, Elsie Ingersoll moved just as swiftly, also charging frantically towards the void. The woman's eyes crinkled with delight as she clutched something in her hand. Upon closer inspection, it was clearly a piece of tissue from the Floating World's Metamorphosis.

It was during the previous joint attack on the Floating World's Metamorphosis that she, who had already communicated with Song Shi and made ample preparations, seized the opportunity to snatch it away!
"A bunch of uncivilized fools—!" The tsunami surged higher and higher, and Ogden's slightly shrill voice boomed, mingling with the storm and ravaging the surroundings. He laughed maniacally, "You! Only deserve! To eat the greatest Ogden—"

His voice stopped abruptly.

The personalities and minds of individuals, numbering in the nine figures, collided with each other, leaving behind profound wisdom. The pure spirit pierced through the abyss and the raging winds struck Ogden Christopher with tremendous force!
—Source: The Mysterious Chaos of "Not Me"!

This mental shock not only targeted Ogden, but also included Song Shi, whose momentum, which had been soaring, inevitably paused.

Most importantly, this attack was not only powerful, but also perfectly timed, completely lacking the recovery and buffer one should have after a well-prepared attack on the Floating World's Metamorphosis.

The only explanation is that the attack Miao Liluan just launched in response to the combined efforts of everyone was a trivial feint! Most of its attention was focused elsewhere, which is why it was able to intercept Song Shi in time!
At the critical moment, Song Shi reversed the killing, and the crimson gold surged instantly. Before the flames that could burn and destroy anything, spirit and matter were treated equally, like butter being smoothly sliced ​​by a hot knife.

"Hiss, it seems the plan was seen through beforehand. How did they do that?"

With a single slash, he cleaved through the impact, and Song Shi hissed, "Could this be the essence of great wisdom?"

"I don't think so!" Elsie Ingersoll scoffed during the sprint, "It's just that too many people are crammed into his brain, so he has a lot of data samples to look at! If a large number of people is called 'great wisdom,' then I'll go and invite infinite non-repeating decimals to be my vice president!"

And amidst the exchange of words, a new blow was delivered!
