Chapter 420: Chapter 396: Destruction (Three more for subscription) Chapter 420: Chapter 396: Destruction (Three more for subscription) On the morning of December 21, 4161, at 7:55, everyone in Ninth Base City heard a roaring boom coming from the direction of East City.
They saw patches of black light flashing in that direction and releasing massive electromagnetic shockwaves, affecting nearly all circuits and electrical appliances throughout Ninth Base City.
And there, floating high in the sky were the fire support gunboats, violently bombarding toward the direction of the flashing black lights.
The rays from more than a thousand large-caliber plasma cannons turned the entire cityscape into a glowing white hue.
The tremendous booming was enough to puncture people’s eardrums, and the ground trembled violently, as if an earthquake of magnitude eight had occurred.
Every street in the entire city was filled with the sounds of panic-stricken screams.
Some of the more courageous Armored Martial Cultivators rushed to high places, looking towards East City, wanting to see what was happening there.
...
“What’s going on over there?”
“Holy shit, what is the military doing, deploying such formidable forces?”
“It’s not the military, it’s the Armed Police Force!
Are those cannon antimatter annihilation bombs?
They must be at least 320mm caliber, a single shot could kill a Seventh Realm Martial Cultivator.”
“What the hell is going on?
Using so many powerful weapons inside the Base City!”

At this time, Fang Ranran also watched in utter astonishment towards East City.
At the moment of the incident, she was drinking morning tea near the city hall with several bureaucrats from the Civil Affairs Bureau, discussing the matter of arranging household registration for some illegal immigrants.
They were negotiating which regulations to invoke to allow these illegal immigrants from the Bright Holy Sect to obtain formal household registry ahead of time.
But the electromagnetic shockwaves from the direction of East City not only caused a massive blackout in the surrounding area but also shattered various glass utensils in the restaurant.
Everyone was shocked and did not understand what exactly was happening there.
With her well-informed networks, Fang Ranran quickly got relevant news through two channels – ‘Sky Blue Group’ and ‘Heavenly Fox Trading Company’.
“The Federation Security Bureau is rounding up ‘Ling Huan’?”
Fang Ranran couldn’t help but be shocked; the Security Bureau was actually rounding up the former Vice President of the Divine Illumination Association!
No wonder there was such a big commotion.
Could they succeed?
Acting within the Base City was quite reckless, wasn’t it?
That was Ling Huan, the top-tier Illusion Master!
Could they kill the being who many in the Federation hate to the bone yet was untouchable by all of the Earth Federation?
At this time, the many government officials dining in the restaurant also came to understand the situation, and almost all of them cursed loudly.
“Have the people from the Security Bureau lost their minds?”
“What are they trying to do?
Destroy our Ninth Base City?”
“Why wasn’t there any prior notice?
Aren’t we clear about who Ling Huan is?
Why act inside the city?”
But they were facing a Ninth Realm whom they simply couldn’t convince before the operation commenced!
After scanning the battlefield, Huo Bangguo momentarily froze.
“What happened here?
How did you manage to damage his Primordial Spirit to such an extent?”
Almost instinctively, he slapped his palm down, sealing away a cluster of Primordial Soul essence as it tried to escape underground from Ling Huan.
Given that the events had already unfolded and couldn’t be reversed, under no circumstances could they allow Ling Huan to escape, or else the Ninth Base City would have paid such a steep price in vain!
— If they really could eliminate “Ling Huan” this time, even if it just subdued him for a few decades, it would be excellent news for the Federation government.
This battle might even impact the entire political landscape of the Federation government.
“I also want to know about that.”
That question came from a skinny middle-aged man in a well-tailored suit.
As he dodged the barrage of shells and plasma beam cannons surrounding him, he asked, “I didn’t expect such a stupid and ridiculous plan to actually work.”
At that moment, more and more ferocious artillery fire was bombarding in their direction.
One after another, Antimatter Annihilation Bombs were annihilating all matter around them.
While dodging shells and beams, Huo Bangguo and the others contained Ling Huan’s soul quality and flesh within the nearby area, letting the potent Antimatter Annihilation Bombs and Plasma Beam Cannons erode it bit by bit.
Killing a Ninth Realm Martial Cultivator was very difficult, and a Ninth Realm Emperor even more so.
After the Federation scientists developed the Fake Abyss Source Essence and gradually exposed Ninth Realm Martial Cultivators to the secrets of Longevity, these powerful Martial Artists had become nearly Immortal.
Marshal Li Xianglong said expressionlessly, “This is an internal secret of the Security Bureau, and no information can be disclosed.”
The Third Marshal, Odin’s face twitched.
He was part of the Security Bureau, yet he was completely in the dark until now.
“Isn’t Elder Xu going to say anything?
”
The suit-clad middle-aged man’s eyes glinted slyly as he said, “To my knowledge, this operation was planned by you, your apprentice Zhou Yunfei, and the Thunder Admiral from your ‘National Homeland Security Special Action Center,’ wasn’t it?
I saw the operation application report submitted by the Thunder Admiral in the Security Bureau’s backend, which had your and Zhou Yunfei’s signatures on it.
It’s very interesting that such an absurd plan would gain your approval.”
Li Xianglong’s expression darkened slightly at that revelation.
This man had actually investigated the Security Bureau’s intelligence database without permission, and he was openly mentioning it right to his face—such audacity!

Lin Rui had submitted a report encrypted at a 3S level, and this person could access it?
Huo Bangguo’s expression also darkened, thinking that Zhou Yunfei, one of the masterminds behind the operation, had not told him the truth.
Simultaneously, he took note of the name “Thunder” Admiral and the “National Homeland Security Special Action Center.”
You Ming, in charge of the Security Bureau’s Ninth Division Special Service Center and the Major Crime Investigation Department, had yet to capture the Children’s Song Killer, which greatly irritated Huo Bangguo.
Xu Mengran smiled slightly: “I think at this time, it’s better for everyone not to be distracted.
Making sure Ling Huan dies completely is what we should be focused on now.”
This suited everyone present to their great advantage.
