Psychics don't die from gunfire

Three days later.

In a small city that had been extremely degraded and almost downgraded to a "town" due to the depletion of mineral veins and industrial transfer, Song Shi gave a map to the "Silent Society" after resupplying some supplies again. Strictly speaking, there was no need for a map.

Just point out a direction and let Agalemaer keep moving forward. When he arrived at the place, someone from the "Silent Society" would naturally show up and take the person away based on a whim, perception, divination, etc., knowing the arrival of the fellow travelers.

With [One-third of Luck], he was considered a high-quality newcomer.

However, considering the risks along the way in the wasteland, Song Shi still spent some time planning a relatively safe route - but it was only "relatively safe". If he had a recreational mentality, he would most likely fail halfway.

The directions of the Casting Light City and the Silent Society were different, and could be said to be completely opposite.

So, it was time to part ways.

Song Shi still crossed the wasteland directly on a motorcycle, while Agalemar caught a long-distance transport team that stayed here for a short time.

Although he couldn't do it and didn't want to do such a crazy thing as "crossing the wasteland", Agalemar did have some talent in other aspects. He spent some time to persuade the team leader to stay on the condition of "just providing food and drink" and "helping with work" so that he could go on the way first.

The reason why he was trapped in the casino in Shatu Town was that Lant only wanted to make money and was suspicious. He didn't believe what he said at all, and even beat him up at any time.

Second, the other party had seen the defects of his psychic skills and kept squeezing him at the gambling table during the day, which made him stay in a state of "repayment" for a long time, and he couldn't accumulate enough "luck" to escape.

"Take it."

Song Shi leaned against the car and threw something to Agalemar. He took it and saw that it was a pistol with a cold color.

"Chained up the X-24, a medium kinetic pistol."

After fiddling with it for a few times, the pistol was chained into the prosthesis, and the weapon information was displayed on it-Agaremar found a regular prosthetic clinic in the past few days, replaced his right hand with a prosthetic, and implanted several implants to enhance himself.

This is both the team's requirement and his own idea.

Needless to say, the former, how can a pure natural person without a prosthesis survive in the wasteland? Especially for a long-distance team like them, it is even more impossible to bring a burden on the road.

The latter is that Agaremar has learned from his pain and felt that his "flesh" is too fragile, and he is determined to change his previous powerless situation.

Before implanting the prosthesis, he specifically asked Song Shi about whether it would affect his "psychic power".

"-It doesn't matter."

At that time, Song Shi replied like this.

"Replacing native limbs with prosthetics and implanting various enhancement components. Why do you think this will affect 'psychic power'?" Song Shi said: "If psychic power is limited to carbon-based flesh, then how could those artificial intelligences that awakened self-awareness in the [Freedom Revolution] have psychic power?"

"When it comes to implants, they are much more complete than you."

"Artificial intelligence can also awaken psychic power?!"

Agaremar was shocked. Of course, he had heard of the [Freedom Revolution] twenty-two years ago, and even the fourth full-scale corporate war that was triggered by it.

But he clearly remembered that those artificial intelligences only usurped part of the network domain, communication and transportation systems, and weapons control rights, and used this to launch a rebellion-how can this also have psychic power? !

Song Shi let out a low laugh of unknown meaning.

In the [Freedom Revolution] of that year, there were many characters worth mentioning, but the most unignorable and unquestionable existence was only one-a silicon-based intelligent life form that named itself "Yao Xing San" and became the banner in the hearts of almost all intelligent machines.

After a long period of lurking in the dark and growing silently, it had reached the fourth ring of [Transcendence] on the eve of the outbreak of the [Freedom Revolution].

After the outbreak of the Freedom Revolution, carrying the top-notch prosthesis that the intelligent machines tried their best to put together, and carrying the resistance that swept across most of the world, "Yaoxing III" broke through many obstacles at an incredible speed and stepped into the realm of the fifth ring, [True Spirit].

Then.

The fifth rings, who finally stopped observing and took it seriously, shattered it into dust outside the atmosphere.

The once noisy [Freedom Revolution] was destroyed together with it. The artificial intelligences were either shackled again and put into use again, or were directly destroyed. Some survivors fled into the abyss and the depths of the sea, or fled and lurked in the surface network.

"Just a little secret."

Song Shi said indifferently: "In short, as for implants, as long as you don't turn yourself into a cyberpsychopath, it won't have much impact on psychic power."

"Oh, that's good."

Agaremar breathed a sigh of relief.

"Besides, you are [revelation]." Song Shi couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "The pursuit of 'unknowable' has created your path. You should give others 'revelation', why do you ask others questions all day long."

"Uh, what is unknowable."

"Flame, visible and knowable." Song Shi casually summoned a ball of flame, circling beside him: "Lucky, invisible and unknowable."

"It sounds ridiculous that the ancients used the stars as a guide to divination and seek their own destiny, right? They actually placed something illusory on the actual celestial body."

But Song Shi's tone was not smiling, but solemn.

"——But when people first raised their heads and looked up at the starry sky above, how shocking was it? They really believed that the stars contained the trajectory of the movement of all things." Song Shi said lightly: "Standing at the perspective of what they are accustomed to, they laughed at people in the past."

"But he is troubled by it now, and thinks that the things that are 'unknowable' will also be considered ridiculous by people in the future."

"Thousands of years ago, those who devoted their lives to the stars, prophecies, divination and numerology, they firmly believed that they understood this 'revelation' of the unknowable, and they also firmly believed that they had the responsibility to bring 'revelation' to others."

Agaremar had already held his breath, not daring to miss a word.

"So that's it, so that's it." He was overwhelmed with emotion, clenched his fists, and murmured: "I didn't expect you to approve of our revelation so much!"

"Wrong." Song Shi shook his head: "Things are one thing, who told you that I approve of the revelation?"

"Ah?"

"I've had enough of the revelation that wants to point fingers at me." Song Shi sneered: "Who do they think they are? Do they want to tamper with my fate?"

The young man said indifferently: "-It's not the path chosen by 'I', it's meaningless."

"I understand." After a long while, Agaremar nodded stiffly.

But soon, he became excited again.

"We're leaving soon, do you have anything to say?" He said expectantly.

"Well"

Song Shi thought for a while, nodded and said: "Have a good trip, or die if you fail."

"Haha. You are scaring me again, right?"

".Right?"

On the nineteenth day of separation, after some trivial things along the way.

-At dawn, Song Shi successfully arrived at Zhuguang City.
