Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 627 I Give You Faith
"abandon?"

Song Shi smiled.

"The antonym of abandonment is acceptance. When did I ever say I would accept you and become your leader?"

"cocoa"

There is something like a thorn in my throat.

"But what would we do without you?"

"What should we do? Aren't you doing well?" Song Shi stood on the top of the mountain, overlooking the tens of thousands of people below: "Did I do something in this?"

"——Mei Hongyi." Song Shi suddenly said.

Mei Hongyi, who was standing at the broken end of the overpass below, responded immediately.

He was as surprised as the others. He never expected that this "Nan Dou" would say these words at this time. However, the man's expression was very restrained and no one noticed.

"Did I push for the establishment of your autonomous committee?" Song Shi looked at him, "Have I ever approved or vetoed every measure you issued?"

Mei Hongyi wanted to say that you really didn't raise any opinions on those measures - but when they were formulating them, they were originally determined based on the other party's personality and values.

But the man just said respectfully: "You really didn't say anything."

There was a brief uproar in the crowd.

"Is this true?" Someone murmured in a low voice, "Patrol team, assigned accommodation, relief rations. Lord Nandou, isn't this what you meant?"

As if he had noticed some people's thoughts, Song Shi said succinctly: "Yes, that's what the Autonomous Committee did."

"You did this yourself - what does it have to do with me?" he said. "Leader? That's just your idea. I never commanded anything."

Suddenly, someone shouted, "No!"

It was a tall, thin man with a skull tattooed on half of his face. He shouted, "No! If it weren't for you performing miracles, killing the robbers and warlords, and purifying Baige City! How could we have what we have now? You can't do more!"

"Are you going to deny that?"

"Yes, I did all this."

Unexpectedly, Song Shi admitted this so clearly.

Then he asked, “So what?”

"So you consider me a god?"

"Because of you, that's right." Someone else said, "You gave us a home. Is that all——"

"If this home can exist today because of me, it will perish tomorrow because I leave."

Song Shi interrupted.

"You can call me a god today, and call me a demon tomorrow."

Song Shi bent down and picked up a small stone from under his feet.

“To such an extent”

He pinched it casually, and when he let go, a handful of powder flew away with the wind.

“That’s totally ridiculous.”

Some of the flames flickered a few times, as if they were unstable.

Mei Hongyi exhaled lightly and had to speak out: "Master Nandou, what do you mean?"

“Is there anything in the world that lasts forever? If you wishfully believe that your current state of life is natural, then when any change comes, you will suffer great terror.”

"Nandou." Someone said, "But there's nothing we can do."

"——What can I give you?"

"Advanced technology, powerful weapons and equipment?"

Song Shi shook his head: "No, I can't give it to you."

"Eternal protection, an indestructible barrier?"

Song Shi shook his head: "I can give it, but I won't."

"Nan Dou." Someone said in a trembling voice: "Nan Dou."

"I can't give you even a tiny bit of material things. What I can give you is only one thing."

Song Shi could clearly see everyone's face and expression, the fear, anxiety and confusion.

"Do you believe what I say?" Song Shi paused for a moment and suddenly said something irrelevant.

Those shaky thoughts seemed to have found a backbone all of a sudden, and they immediately grasped on to it desperately.

"Believe. Believe!"

"We believe in you, Nandou!"

Song Shi raised his hand to suppress the noise.

"If I tell you that someone has passed on his beliefs to me over four thousand years, will you still believe it?"

After a moment of silence.

Almost everyone nodded silently.

"The chivalrous deeds he once performed with his sword, the faith he upheld, and the choices he made, have long been forgotten. Even the organization he was willing to sacrifice everything for has disappeared into history."

Song Shi raised his red-gold eyes and spoke word by word.

“——It should be like this.”

"But his spiritual power and faith made him pass these things to me in the end."

"I don't quite understand." Someone murmured.

Some people also asked, "Nan Dou, who is he?"

Song Shi did not answer, he just opened his hands and a red-gold flame emerged from his palms.

"Companies have monopolized the sun, the earth, and the ocean. Every breath we take is taxed by them. The nobles of the East Land Republic regard all things as slaves to support themselves and control immeasurable resources."

"But so what?"

Song Shi said calmly.

“If you are materially scarce, then you should dig for strength from your own heart—the power to turn the ‘impossible’ into the ‘possible’!”

This was a much longer silence than any previous one.

Mei Hongyi pinched his brows hard, feeling like something was stuck in his throat, but he didn't know what to say. Marsh stood there in a daze, repeating subconsciously, "The power of the heart. The power of the impossible?"

This moment.

"Nandou. Nandou." A young girl in the crowd covered her face in pain. "Heart, faith. How can people like us have it? Where can we find it?"

"Yes, where should we look for it? Where should we dig it out?"

Song Shi shook his head slightly.

Under the gaze of so many people, he placed his hand on his heart, as if he was clenching something.

"Four thousand years ago, that man passed on his beliefs to me. Four thousand years later, I give it to you and others—"

"If you have no idea and feel lost, then just put everything on this belief! Let it guide you and make choices for you!"

"This is the belief that the New Heavenly Army has been pursuing all their lives but has never achieved—"

Song Shi's clenched fingers suddenly loosened, and countless sparks suddenly lit up the night sky like fireflies, reflecting a variety of faces. In the next moment, thousands of sparks fell into the crowd.

“——【Recreate a New Heaven】!”

In an instant, most of Baige City was as bright as day.

Most of the people gathered in the Municipal Square, some of whom had traveled thousands of miles to follow the group in the past, and some of whom had heard the news and came here recently, were confused and at a loss. Even the senior officials of the Autonomous Committee, headed by Mei Hongyi, who had stood out in recent days, had different expressions.

At the same time, in the vast crowd.

——Seeking strength from the heart?
How could the other party, a psychic who had reached the fourth level, [Sublimation], not know the difficulty of awakening "psychic power"? If these people had the talent and awakened mind, how could they have fallen into the current state?

Only these fools are willing to believe it. No, most people nowadays don't believe it at all.

A man wearing a greasy leather jacket, braids, and standard rogue attire sneered in his heart. He was an agent from the security department of the super company Pure White Creatures, and was sent to perform lurking and observation tasks.

He made a preliminary judgment.

The purpose of this powerful psychic who calls himself "Nan Dou" appearing in the war zone between the United Government and the East Land Republic should be to satisfy some spiritual needs and try out a sociological sandbox game - anyway, no matter whether it succeeds or not, a fourth-ring psychic has a high probability of escaping.

Hey.
Let alone expecting these helpless homeless people to awaken their spiritual powers, even if we lowered the requirements by a hundred times, what would happen if they really awakened? Do you still think this is a backward era of thousands of years?
Just talking about himself, as an elite agent of the [Pure White Creature], under the normal skin on the surface for camouflage, there is an inner carapace layer grown from a composite of chitin and carbon fiber, which is strong enough to withstand continuous attacks from small-caliber firearms at close range.

The built-in frequency-enhancing nerve bundles can improve reaction speed and significantly reduce pain transmission. The blood-clotting mucus and regenerative hormones secreted by the injured glands in the body can also bring self-healing abilities far beyond normal people.

The algae symbiotic lungs created by bioengineering can filter dozens of harmful substances such as cyanide, and the modified blood has its own coagulation factors and anti-radiation enzymes. Needless to say, the most basic body functions such as strength can be punched into a concrete wall with a punch.

At present, he had to conceal his presence from others when carrying out covert missions, so it was inconvenient for him to carry too many weapons. If it were some frontal assault missions, he would even be eligible to apply for a temporary bio-robot suit, which would greatly increase his strength.

Psychic?
The first ring, or even the second ring, if it works well, it is still possible to kill yourself.

The man thought about this in his mind, while the notebook in his head meticulously recorded everything at the scene. On the surface, he still held the torch, and his expression was no different from the people around him.

Hundreds of meters away.

A middle-aged woman with a dark face and wrapped in an outdoor jacket was in turmoil.

Recreate a new world?

——Recreate a new world?!

As a member of the East Land Republic and a descendant of a fourth-class family, she had a family background in learning. Moreover, she had also studied a lot of information after becoming a field agent. She reacted in an instant.

Rebuilding a new heaven. This was clearly the protagonist of the "New Heaven Army Disaster" that wreaked havoc in East Continent 4,500 years ago and targeted the Seven Supreme Sects.

The "New Sky Army" composed of the Southern Sky Army and the Northern Sky Army!
She never thought that this word, which she had only seen in history books, would actually appear before her one day.

But how is it possible?
Using copper as a mirror, one can correct his clothes; using the past as a mirror, one can understand the rise and fall; using people as a mirror, one can understand gains and losses. Therefore, most of the aristocratic families in the East Land Republic are keen on commenting on history, and she is no exception, so she is quite familiar with the history of the "New Heavenly Army Disaster".

Logically speaking, after the New Heavenly Army was briefly popular, it was suppressed by the seven great sects. Although it tried its best to resist, it was ultimately futile and fell apart and died out. In the following decades, even if new "New Heavenly Army" occasionally appeared, they were all insignificant and were easily suppressed again.

As a result, more than four thousand years later, someone suddenly raised the banner of the New Heavenly Army?
As for what the other party said about "someone passing it on", she fulfilled her duty and wrote it down truthfully, but completely ignored it in her heart.

This is really ridiculous. Actually, it’s not particularly ridiculous, it’s just too stereotypical.

After all, isn't this the starting point of a cult? Those so-called cult leaders, saints, sages, and sons of gods, who communicate with souls that have been dead for hundreds of years, are possessed by holy spirits that appear out of nowhere, and receive divine revelations in dreams while sleeping. Compared with these, it is not so bad for the ancients to pass on a message.

No.
She stared at the young man standing in the fire.

——It does not necessarily mean that he has truly inherited the New Heavenly Army heritage.

It is most likely a product of a false identity.

But even so, we must increase the level of attention we pay to it by a lot again.

The fourth ring is not the same as the fourth ring that claims to "recreate the new heaven".
At this moment, the crowd, which was still in confusion, suddenly became agitated.

On the sacred mountain, the young man suddenly took a step forward.

He walked down step by step. Seeing this, Mei Hongyi and others naturally would not stand at a higher position than the other party, so they also jumped off the overpass.

Song Shi walked to the foot of the mountain and entered the crowd. The people around him subconsciously wanted to surround him, but after meeting his gaze, they retreated and spontaneously made way for him.

The balls of fire separated like water, revealing a straight road.

End of the road.
Yes, myself?!
The woman was startled.

She tried to do something, but the biological toxin was embedded in her teeth, and a light bite would kill her in two seconds. But at this moment, the opponent's footsteps were not fast, but when she met those glass-like pupils, she found that she could not move!
Song Shi waved his hand casually.

Among the torches swaying around, the flames of several torches suddenly trembled, and then, as if they had spirits, they turned into blurry chains and pounced on several people accurately. The latter put up a brief resistance, but they surrendered in less than a breath.

——Psionic skills: [Suzaku Soul].

With the blessing of "Fa You Yuan Ling", Song Shi only needs to think about it slightly, and the rest of the operations will be completed spontaneously by the psychic flame.

"An agent from the East Continent Republic."

Song Shi raised his hand again, and the flame rushed over, burning the other party's carefully arranged disguise. The dark complexion faded, and a beautiful and delicate face appeared in front of everyone.

"What level of family?"

The other party knew that he could not escape the disaster today, so he took a deep breath and asked, "Can I ask you how to see through me?"

"No problem." Song Shi said calmly: "Harmony between man and nature."

The woman was stunned, then smiled bitterly: "It turns out to be like this"

Song Shi disagreed.

These days, I have changed the environment here with my own hands, traveled all over Baige City, and finally stood high in the municipal center, overlooking the entire city. After this wave of processes, coupled with the [Dayuan] path that is best at environmental resonance - besides, even in [Dayuan], I am also at the top level in this area.

Heaven and man are one.

Every blade of grass and every move in Baige City is under his control.

The other party was indeed cautious in his actions and his disguise was indeed sophisticated, but how could that subtle difference in temperament escape the dual scrutiny of [Liuli Temple] and the unity of man and nature?
