Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 912 "Wormhole"

"Confirmed?"

"Confirmed. Confirmed!" The old man, with a thick head of silver hair, looked old but not quite, his voice trembling uncontrollably: "It's true!"

He exclaimed with elation, "That's right! Although I haven't looked at it in detail yet, it's absolutely true, and every step makes sense! Especially the complete experimental records from early stages to mature applications! This is simply—"

Song Shi casually sized up the old man. The old man was one of the core leaders of the original Enlightened Ones' technology department. After the establishment of the New Order Federation, he naturally became the dean of a large research institute.

However, compared to pure theoretical research, the other party's area of ​​expertise leans more towards applied engineering.

"Oh shit."

Just then, a low curse came from the side.

"Damn it, this is how they think! And no wonder I was like this last time—!"

The speaker was a man in a suit and tie who looked much younger, around forty years old. He was always energetic and seemed to have inexhaustible energy.

But at this moment, he stared intently at the data tablet in his hand, sometimes scrolling rapidly, sometimes pausing for a long time, his expression constantly switching between clenched teeth, relief, and irritation.

Suddenly realizing that others were watching him, he made an "oh" sound, put down the data tablet, and rubbed his temples vigorously: "Sorry, I lost my composure a bit. I didn't expect that Fugu Pioneer overcame those 'wormhole' technical difficulties in this way. Tsk, looking at it this way, my previous thinking was off track."

Song Shi didn't know this person, but Cha Keluo introduced him to everyone at the beginning.

That's how we got to know each other.

The other party is a member of the Science Ethics Committee, a renowned and highly accomplished scholar in the field of theoretical physics.

During his time in the corporate alliance, he was neutral but tended to be at odds with the company, so he accepted the invitation of the Scientific Ethics Committee and joined as a full member—the company really dared to take action against those who dared to challenge them.

Without the help of a scientific ethics committee, he—if he were simply killed, that would be one thing—but more likely, he would wake up one morning to find himself a corporate advocate.

For public figures with a certain level of influence, companies prefer to carefully adjust them into their desired form through techniques such as consensus building, memory editing, and personality modification rather than simply killing them.

He absolutely cannot accept this.

However, with the background of the Science Ethics Committee, as long as he doesn't directly raise the banner of rebellion, the company won't rashly take action against him for his occasional slander, criticism, or underhanded sabotage.

There is another point that is equally important.
The full members of the Science Ethics Committee include experts and scholars who have achieved success in their respective academic fields, as well as well-known independent journalists, wealthy people who oppose the misuse of technology, community leaders, and many others. There are many who are not rich and many who are rich.

Because of his past statements and actions, he was subjected to both overt and covert pressure from the company, and research resources were always extremely scarce. However, the scientific ethics committee naturally formed a platform for all parties to exchange resources, allowing him to break free from the company's control to some extent.

And now...
Song Shixin said.

Because of this past experience, when giant corporations went bankrupt, disintegrated, were broken up, and were regulated, directly causing the old academic system to fall apart and scatter, these formal members of the Science Ethics Committee suddenly transformed from a small, cohesive group into a unique behemoth.

In fact, the National Security Agency (NSA) is also trending in this direction. However, the NSA's system is relatively closed and its reach is limited. In contrast, the Scientific Ethics Committee, or its formal members, are spread across various industries, and their combined influence is far greater than that of the NSA.

It's not out of control yet, but what about the future?
"call."

At this moment, the man took a deep breath, then exhaled, repeating this three times until he finally calmed down temporarily. He looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Austin is right, it is indeed a very complete technical file. I think we can move on to the implementation phase."

"Your Excellency, Supreme Executive Committee Member," he said solemnly, looking at Song Shi beside him, "please allow me to join."

“Okay, I have no objection.” Song Shi shrugged. “But I suggest you ask Chaklo and Yvette again.”

This unexpected meeting didn't last long. The few veteran experts who had been brought in at the last minute found a place to have a heated discussion. Since it involved singularity technology, the level of secrecy was undoubtedly the highest. For the foreseeable future, they would all have to stay here. Of course, being able to see and work closely with singularity technology, they wouldn't leave even if you tried to get rid of them.

As for what happened afterward, the New Order Alliance formed a team and mobilized resources from all sides to dismantle, analyze, and physically reproduce "spatial leap," which had nothing to do with Song Shi.

"Depth 7 actually kept the 'world' as a backup plan."

While saying "surprisingly," Chaklo's tone was flat and straightforward, clearly indicating that he had been prepared for this all along.

He looked up at the sky, his expression filled with worry: "If Archibald returns, I must ascend the Throne of God before then."

Whether they can come back or not is another matter.

Song Shi didn't seem to care: "No one in Ye Nan thought Isidore would lose; they all thought he was going to win."

"What do you think?" Chakro was amused.

“I’m betting on Isidore.” Song Shi said decisively: “The Metamorphosis of the Floating World is Archibald’s creation, which is practically the same as me fighting Archibald. And coincidentally, I’ve also fought Isidore.”

"I don't think she will lose."

Upon hearing this, Chakro seemed to ponder for a moment, then shook his head slightly: "If she comes back, I need to break through to the sixth ring even more."

After saying that, he didn't continue the topic and looked at Song Shi.

Song understood.

A flame appeared out of thin air—

Chakro clenched his fist and twisted it, silently manifesting the psychic energy of "rejection" and "denial," sealing the room and ensuring that no power would leak out.

"—【Hongyuan Tianchi】, this is the third stage of my true spirit."

Song Shi did not summon a massive sea of ​​fire, but only a small ball of flame, about the size of a fist.

It floated quietly.

Song Shi loosened the restraint slightly, and the next second, the flame suddenly expanded, with every inch of air becoming the medium for its expansion, instantly filling the entire room!

"Assimilation expansion".

Despite being engulfed in flames, Chakro remained unfazed. After observing for a while, he concluded, "With just a sliver of spiritual energy as the initial driving force, you can now trigger a chain reaction and snowball out of control."

He pondered for a moment and said, "Very efficient, very fast, but..."

"Take another look," Song Shi interrupted.

Chakro focused his attention, and then surprise appeared in his pupils.

flame.

The "flames" filled every corner of the room, making it impossible to enter.

It is burning.
