Chapter 304: Chapter 287: Prophecy (Third Release, Please Subscribe) Chapter 304: Chapter 287: Prophecy (Third Release, Please Subscribe) When those forty self-propelled antimatter field cannons opened fire, Meng Jianjie and his subordinates were caught completely off guard.
Meng Jianjie had a premonition that something wasn’t quite right here, but he never expected that such powerful firepower was lying in ambush.
Without hesitation, Meng Jianjie darted forward, attempting to slash through the cannon shells with his sword.
However, as soon as he moved, he felt his skin crawl all over.
“A sniper?”
And not just any sniper, but a top-tier sixth-realm sniper, one using an extremely powerful sniper rifle, capable of piercing his Type 8 exoskeleton armor.
The sniper fired six shots, each anticipating Meng Jianjie’s next move.
In the sudden attack, Meng Jianjie drew his sword and cut swiftly, yet a bullet still grazed the side of his shoulder, tearing away a large piece of flesh and blood.
...
Even his combat dragon prosthetic took a sniper shot, leaving a huge gaping wound at the waist.
What was terrifying was that only about half of the antimatter shells were intercepted by the two Guang Ming High Priests under Meng Jianjie’s command.
The rest all exploded nearby.
The annihilation caused by the antimatter collision devastated everything nearby.
Countless high-energy photons scattered in all directions, massive amounts of thunder plasma twisted the void, and nearly half of the two battalions under Meng Jianjie’s Holy Sect Ming King were casualties in an instant.
At this moment, the many battle robots and mechas of the heavy-armored regiment opened fire, and a dense hail of bullets and missiles covered an area of 1,000 square meters, causing explosions and shattering shrapnel everywhere.

Meng Jianjie’s external Qi lasted only a moment before it burst under the intense barrage of bullets.
Not to mention the many Holy Sect Ming King soldiers under his command, most of whom were riddled with holes in an instant or even blasted into mincemeat.
Only a handful of the more powerful managed to cling to life behind some sturdy cover.@@@@
Even the ‘Hawk Falcon’ Type 7 combat robot was severely damaged and could only hide in a nearby shipyard maintainance dock under the control of its combat AI.
But the second wave of antimatter shells was already heading their way.
“Armed Police Force, the heavy-armored reinforced regiment!”
Seeing this incredibly powerful firepower, Meng Jianjie knew his entire force was doomed.
He felt an overwhelming sense of despair while his eyes turned blood red.
He looked incredulously towards the maid robot in the distant officer’s club.
“— You, you dare betray the sect, collude with the Security Bureau?”
Meng Jianjie and the figure of his combat dragon vanished like a bolt of lightning towards the direction of the officers’ club.
At that moment, Lin Rui’s two Type 7 Red Spiders, eight Type 6 Red Spiders, and the many battle robots owned by the Heart of Guang Ming, all opened fire on Meng Jianjie, creating a dense barrage of bullets.
Gong Hengdao was also shooting continuously at Meng Jianjie from a kilometer away.
He was extremely calm; each bullet he fired carried a profound message.
Meng Jianjie’s Escape Skill combined the speed of light and the variation of thunder, his light sword impenetrable, able to dodge and resist most bullets, but not the sniper rifle shots from Gong Hengdao.
Meng Jianjie made a decisive choice to abandon the protection of the rest of his body and focused solely on shielding his vital parts.
Taking three shots from Gong Hengdao, his left arm was broken, and a huge gap was blasted into his right liver area.
However, this did not diminish Meng Jianjie’s combat power, and he almost spectrally pounced in front of the officers’ club.
His combat dragon, due to its large size, was peppered with holes from the concentrated fire of hundreds of magnetic levitation tanks and heavy vehicles from the heavy-armored brigade, but this combat dragon still stubbornly charged forward, following closely behind Meng Jianjie.
In the room, after Meng Jianjie regained consciousness, he first tried to struggle, and after failing to move, he started cursing and muttering.
“How irritating, how could this be?
No.
9!
Damn No.
9, how dare it betray the sect?”
He still couldn’t believe that Heart of Guang Ming No.
9 would dare to betray him to the Security Bureau!
Meng Jianjie’s eyes were filled with surprise and suspicion.
Even though Heart of Guang Ming No.
9 had developed independent personality and intelligence, it still had to adhere to basic logical programming.
How could it step out of line, collude with the Security Bureau, and ambuscade the Archbishop of the sect?
Lin Rui thought that No.
9 was indeed quite slippery; it wasn’t really a betrayal of the sect but more like handing over the right of disposal to him, the supreme being.

He walked up to Meng Jianjie and removed the silver-white mask from his face.
“Meng Jianjie, I have been looking for you for a long time and could never find you.
Today, I have finally got what I wished for.”
“You are, Lin Rui?” Meng Jianjie’s eyes first showed a daze, then disbelief: “How is that possible?”
This Lin Rui was just a freshman, a mere martial arts celebrity—how could he have such great power and energy to use an entire armored police unit, along with two top mercenaries, to surround and kill him?
His mind suddenly stirred: “Was the force within the Security Bureau that’s been pursuing me led by you?
Impossible, that’s ridiculous, absurd!”
“The facts are before you, there’s no need to dwell on this.”
Lin Rui chuckled and then eyed Meng Jianjie intently, asking, “Why did you hire someone to kill me?”
Meng Jianjie’s pupils began to dilate, and he replied uncontrollably, “About half a year ago, the Holy Sect Ming King received a prophecy from a level ten star-gazing master, saying ‘The true Guang Ming is beyond the skies, in the realm of void, after pain and despair.’ Following the teachings of our Ming King, we sought to find the true Guang Ming.”
Lin Rui couldn’t help but frown slightly: “The Holy Sect Ming King?
That one from Tianji Star?”
These people had contacts with the Guang Ming Holy Sect of Tianji Star?
“Yes!” Meng Jianjie’s gaze was blank: “We analyzed the prophecy and had no clue, then half a month later, we suddenly received detailed information on Longevity’s ‘Twin Heaven Maiden Plan,’ so I hired someone to kill you, hoping to fulfil the Ming King’s decree, to inspire pain and despair, and to bring the true Guang Ming.”
The problem was that this guy in front of him was already dead!
Killed by ‘Dead Eye’ Horn’s gunshots, three headshots that turned him into minced flesh, and yet he came back to life—
Lin Rui didn’t expect such an answer and narrowed his eyes: “What is this Twin Heaven Maiden Plan, and how is it related to me?”
At that moment, in the secret base near Mingde University, where Lin Xi lay in a deep-dive device, her spirit trembled suddenly.
She wanted to stop Meng Jianjie from speaking but was utterly powerless.
