Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 9 Cutting Iron
The enhanced hearing from his cochlear implant allowed the captain of this armed security force to easily catch the shouts from above.

Of course, even without a cochlear implant, he could still detect it - the crying and shouting was too loud, accompanied by intermittent heavy gasping for breath, making people worry that the other person might pass out at any time.

He didn't even have time to look at his teammates.

The next moment, a figure stumbled onto the stairs.

He was a young man who looked like he had just reached adulthood and had a pretty good appearance. What caught people's attention was the white hospital gown that was stained with blood.

When the young man saw the cameras pointing at him from below, he was visibly stunned.

"Stop right now, don't—"

"You, you are the security guards here?"

But then, a look of ecstasy appeared on the other party's face, and he stumbled over: "You are here to save me, right? Right! That cyber madman up there killed so many people! You are finally here! Great! I am saved! I finally escaped--"

A crisp gunshot interrupted the young man's words.

The smell of gunpowder rose in the air.

A bullet hole appeared on the floor in front of Song Shi.

Song Shi was stunned for a moment, trembling all over, and stammered: "You, you guys."

"Keep your mouth shut and don't make any suspicious moves."

"Record, a Level 3 asset has been recovered."

The captain whispered, letting the action recorder hanging on his chest record the video. Then he turned his head and looked at a team member behind him:
"Barron, take this guy out of this building first. After you have interrogated him about the situation above, come back immediately to provide support."

"Understood—no problem!"

"The rest of you, continue to follow me."

"Yes!"

After personally confirming that this Level 3 asset was handcuffed, the other four men set out again and soon disappeared down the stairs.

The man walked quickly in front, his movements were hurried, but the sound coming out of his mouth was quite leisurely.

"I don't have time for guessing games, so I'll ask you the questions."

Shaking the submachine gun in his hand, the man with a red dragon tattoo on his chest that spread all the way to his neck suddenly laughed: "Do you think I would say that?"

"I'm not as meticulous and stubborn as the captain. With just over 10,000 credit points a month, do you think I can risk my life against a cyber madman?"

Barron turned his head, glanced at the still trembling, silent young man, and couldn't help but curl his lips.

"Hey, kid, let me tell you something."

Barron extended his index finger and pointed upwards:

"In theory, this research institute belongs to Jade Pharmaceuticals. Ha, it's a huge company, it would be great if you could tell others about it. But in reality, I think Jade Pharmaceuticals no longer wants this crappy place."

"Let me use the words of those financial bastards. Ah, yes, inferior assets."

"Heh, when we were discussing the treatment, we agreed that since this place is backed by Emerald Pharmaceuticals, they could open internal employee channels for us, give us the right to purchase inhibitors that are not available on the market, and if we get into trouble, we can get discounts when we go to their affiliated hospitals to get treated."

"When I actually started working, they told me that what I signed was an outsourcing contract. If I want to get these, I need to buy medical insurance—"

Barron suddenly became angry and spat on the ground: "Fifty thousand credit points a year, and that's the lowest level. I have to pay for work? Fuck you!"

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the door of the first floor. Barron glanced at the timid young man behind him and concluded:
"So, please behave a little stronger next time, or just cry until you are speechless, that's fine, to buy me some time. It would be best if we can wait until our respected captain has dealt with the cyber lunatic so that I can rush back."

"no problem."

"Well, that's fine."

Barron said subconsciously, and then immediately realized that something was wrong. He turned around abruptly, and a cold light hit him head-on!
Those were the handcuffs that should have been on Song Shi’s hands!
The moment the handcuffs were thrown out, Song Shi stepped forward and rushed over!

In a hurry, Barron's first reaction was to raise the submachine gun, but a force suddenly pressed down on the barrel. Compared with the prosthesis, it was certainly not as strong, but it was enough to cause the muzzle to deviate a certain amount.

A slight mistake can lead to a huge loss.

Bang bang bang!
The bullet flew off the wall in a series of sparks.

The hall suddenly lit up.

A ball of red-gold flame suddenly rose up and rushed towards Barron's face - almost at the same time, Song Shi moved close to his side, pulled out the tactical dagger from his waist, held it in an inverted position, and slashed into Barron's neck from bottom to top!

Without any stinginess, all the spiritual energy of this body was mobilized and added to Song Shi's right arm.

Psionic energy is the energy source of "Psionic Skills", but the former not only serves as a "skill blue bar", but can also perform some other operations - as for the specific content of the operation, it depends on the user's mastery.

Drain all the spiritual energy in one breath to improve the body's functions.

Even for Song Shi at this moment, this way of use seemed too forced. After all, this was no longer his original body that had been tempered and refined enough to control the fourth ring of peak psychic power at will.

For a moment, Song Shi felt a darkness in front of his eyes.

Just like a natural person may go into shock at any time after losing a lot of blood.

But at a time like this, how could there be leisure shock?
laugh--!
The military stimulants and adrenaline injected not long ago, the body improved by the awakening of psychic power, and the blessing from all psychic power at this moment, the power of holding the dagger completely broke through the limit of natural people! Like a hot knife into butter, it instantly cut through the bionic silicone skin on the outside of Barron, and blood gushed out from the crack!

Clang!
A dull metallic collision sound.

Unlike the previous strong man, he did not have a subcutaneous protective shell implanted, but Barron had also made plans for vital parts and his body had already been replaced with a lightweight alloy skeleton.

Although the strength is lower, the rejection rate is also low, which can save a lot of money on monthly anti-rejection agent expenses. What's more, the weight is significantly lower, which is convenient for movement.

And, after all, this is an "alloy".

How can a man cut iron?
"you--!!!"

Feeling the pain in his neck and a strong sense of horror, Barron roared angrily. His originally stagnant thoughts began to loosen, and his thoughts raced wildly, as he was about to drive the prosthetic limbs connected to his neural circuits to tear the other party into pieces!

"Who said that humans can't cut iron?!"

This moment.

Song Shi also roared.

In a tenth of a second, the red-gold flames gathered towards him and poured into his right arm. Then they spread upwards in an instant and rushed into the tightly held dagger.

This dagger made of composite steel was protected and roasted by the raging flames. A circle of flame patterns appeared on the surface that was originally painted with black matte paint, and even the tip of the dagger turned red.

Just like a rough piece being heated red-hot under the blacksmith's hammer and fierce fire.

Finally I couldn't bear it anymore.

The bionic silicone skin melted and the alloy spine broke.

Amidst the piercing and sharp sound, a flash of red light broke through completely, and in an instant, the head and body were split into two, followed by blood gushing into the sky!
