Psychics don't die from gunfire

——Cease fire?

Song Shi thought for a moment and said, "Is it because of Chakoro and the aerospace carrier?"

Hearing the other party calling the commander-in-chief by his name, Machiko looked at him strangely, but then he didn't care and nodded and admitted, "Yes, did someone tell you in advance?"

He paused, but did not say "Then I won't say more", but took the initiative to introduce further.

Four years ago, under the leadership of Chakoro Vaughn, the current commander-in-chief of the Enlightened and the undisputed leader, a large number of Enlightened members were mobilized and stationed in the City of Casting Light. Unlike previous covert actions, this time the Enlightened showed a rare tough attitude.

——Because the "rebel", Chakoro Vaughn, was here in person!

Even if he has hardly taken action, the mere "existence" of a fifth-ring psychic can change many things.

After a series of struggles in various forms, the Enlightened One has actually controlled one-fifth of the area of ​​​​Forging Light City. Half a year ago, they secretly deployed a "geothermal power plant" and completed self-energy to a great extent.

With Chakoro's personal presence, the three giant companies headed by [Fubo Energy] can tolerate the Enlightened One controlling part of the area of ​​​​Forging Light City. After all, most of the latter's control is also the outer city area, which is not of high value.

In fact, they can use this to trap Chakoro and turn this territory into a "cage" to force the other party not to move rashly.

But a "geothermal power plant" is different. Unlike the new energy technology with the same name in the old era, which is far less developed, this geothermal energy supply facility rooted in the mantle is now enough to meet the medium energy consumption of millions of people.

This is denying the foundation of Forging Light City and attempting to challenge the field of [Fubo Energy].

——So, a new round of war begins.

Fubo Energy directly dispatched the aerospace carrier "Groden Glory", and Nanyu Heavy Industry and Zero Network also sent corresponding personnel and equipment support, showing an attitude of sufficient attention. Even the municipal government of Zhuguang City reported to the General Administration of Security, which urgently dispatched a group of riot control peacekeeping troops and ace agents, ready to enter the scene at any time.

But as a month ago, Chakoro rose into the sky and intercepted the "Groden Glory" fifty miles outside the city, the two sides confronted each other for nearly three hours, and all the above died down overnight.

As if nothing had happened.

But everyone understands that the real war has never stopped, it is just accumulating, waiting for the moment of explosion.

When mentioning "Chakoro", Machiko's tone slowed down unconsciously, and the colors of worship, respect, longing, and yearning were mixed together, dyeing his pupils with different colors.

"This month is really a good month." He said, "With the geothermal power plant, it's a lot warmer now, and the company dogs don't come to bother me. It seems that you came at a good time, and I guess I can enjoy it for a while."

"Really?" Song Shi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Then I'm looking forward to it."

As the two moved forward, the surrounding scenery was gradually changing.

The most obvious is the "temperature".

As a big source that has reached the second ring, Song Shi can clearly feel that under the guidance of Machiko, the surrounding ambient temperature began to rise slowly-it is still cold in the conventional sense, but it is not enough to be called fierce.

The effect of the geothermal power plant.

Extracting heat energy from the mantle, part of it is converted into electricity and input into the circuit network, and part of it is directly supplied to the surface. If Fubo Energy monopolizes the sun, then the Enlightened One stole the fire from the mantle.

The scale of this geothermal power plant is not small.

Song Shi made an assessment.

He even sensed the approximate location of the geothermal power plant-such a huge heat source can't be hidden from his perception at all.

In addition to the temperature, this area controlled by the Enlightened One also looks much cleaner. At least there are no broken limbs and debris hanging in the corners inexplicably and frozen into the ice.

"How is it? It looks good, right?" Looking around, Machiko said with a little pride: "I am the second batch to come to Zhuguang City. You have never seen this place."

Machiko was chattering, but Song Shi's eyes were already looking far away.

The outer city area of ​​Zhuguang City has no official name, but is directly divided into six outer city areas in a fan shape. At this moment, Song Shi is in the [Third District], which is also one of the areas completely controlled by the Enlightened One.

Song Shi raised his head.

At this moment, in the third district where there should be a building height limit and it is difficult to see high-rise buildings, within the pupils of the young man, there is a nearly 300-meter-high building standing new.

On one side of the building's exterior wall, the logos of [Chunguang Drinks] and [Denglan] were arranged in a vertical line, and the light golden holographic projection made the building shine.

Sensing the gaze of the people beside him, Machiko also stopped.

"It seems that you have found it."

Looking at the building in the distance, he smiled proudly.

"This is our headquarters."

······

After swiping his employee ID, Machiko opened a temporary pass and handed it to Song Shi, saying, "This is a temporary pass. You haven't passed the adaptation training here yet. I guess the official pass won't be issued for a while. You can use this first."

Song Shi casually put the temporary communication card into his pocket and looked around.

At this moment, they have entered the building.

From the outside, the decoration here is no different from that of an ordinary company office building, with holographic posters of new products, videos introducing the company's development history, and a receptionist with a delicate smile - in fact, this is exactly the case.

Yes, Enlightenment has its own company.

[Chunguang Drinks], which sells soft drinks, and [Denglan], which specializes in sports and outdoor equipment, are the two most important companies of Enlightenment. One is to earn money for Enlightenment, and the other is to serve as a propaganda caliber to enhance its own influence.

Machiko took Song Shi into the elevator and pressed the negative ninth floor.

"The building part on the ground is a formal company, and the underground is our real base." He smiled and said, "Don't worry, there is no need to keep it secret. Now everyone in the city of Casting Light knows this."

"Haha, even if those company dogs know, so what?" Machiko's eyes were bright, and his tone was almost pious, just like the name also had power: "The commander-in-chief is here, who dares to do anything?"

And this kind of expression, whether in the past life or now, Song Shi has seen it many times.

——Ding.

Although the number "negative nine floors" was displayed on the side, the elevator did not stop, but continued to descend.

"Eh?" Machiko was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly went up and pressed it again, but there was still no response: "The elevator is broken? I haven't heard of any problems?"

At this moment, the elevator finally stopped.

- Negative thirteenth floor.

As the elevator door opened horizontally, a figure stood in front, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing the other party, Machiko was surprised: "Director Gwenlin?"

Although the other party might not know him, he certainly knew the other party, but how could this decision-making member who was responsible for situation analysis and coordination and had several levels of authority higher than himself suddenly appear here?

The woman called "Director Gwenlin" nodded to him, and then cast her eyes on the person beside the other party.

"You are Song Shi."

"On behalf of the Enlightened One, I welcome your arrival." Under Machiko's surprised gaze, she said, "Please follow me, Chakoro is waiting for you."
