Lin Rui responded noncommittally, “Can you grant my friend access permissions now?
She should be at your door by now, I mean online, I want someone to verify.”
The expression on Light Heart No.
9’s face unexpectedly turned into a bitter smile, “Certainly!
I’ve noticed that the Supreme One is very guarded against me.”
Lin Rui thought to himself, how could he not be on guard?
The Federation had already experienced two AI rebellions in the past, one causing great losses to the Federation, and another that was thwarted.
Moreover, ‘Light Heart No.
9’ was created by a cult.
...
Only by controlling this individual’s core could Lin Rui feel at ease.
He didn’t actually want to engage with ‘Light Heart No.
9’ so soon, but since it had already indicated that it knew Lin Rui’s details, he couldn’t just ignore it.
Lin Rui inquired Lin Xi, who confirmed that Light Heart No.

9 had indeed granted her access permissions before he continued to ask, “And what about the Pontiff called Meng Jianjie?
Where is he?”
“He is in the direction to the south, less than 130 kilometers away, though I can only roughly pinpoint his location now.”
Light Heart No.
9 shook its head slightly, “He and his subordinates have destroyed almost all my sensors and defense weapons positioned 100 kilometers around, and they are actively searching for the location of my core.
At present, I am only able to keep him at bay using twelve defense robots under my control, trying to lure him outward.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Rui frowned, “Twelve?”
Was this a deception?
“I am referring to the robots under my authorization, capable of opening fire on him.”
Light Heart No.
9 explained, “The Pontiff of the Light Saint Church holds an authority second only to mine, and most battle robots under the Light Saint Church are unable to act hostilely against him—only these twelve robots, which I assembled myself using various channels of scavenged scrap parts, are not included in the Light Saint Church’s system.”
Lin Rui ‘oh’-ed silently, thinking these intelligent AIs truly were slippery, no wonder the Federation suffered so heavily in the AI rebellion over a thousand years ago.
And this individual had managed to assemble the Type 7 robots.
The highest model of battle robots currently available on the market was only Type 8.
After the destruction of Guang Ming Heart No.
0, their connection to the ‘Supreme Holy Artifact’ had been severed.
Lin Rui curled the corner of his lips.
Both the Light Saint Church and the ‘Supreme Holy Artifact’ belonged to the people of Tianji Star.
Was this not akin to assisting the Tianji Star people in invading the Earth Federation?
Guang Ming Heart No.
9 seemed to see through his thoughts, fixing him with a gaze, “Your Highness, currently in the Earth Federation, you are the representative of the ‘Light Saint King’s will, the highest positional figure in the doctrine, far above us ten Guang Ming Hearts.
You are the supreme interpreter of the doctrine; I also know that your counterpart must be a strong contender of the ‘Supreme Holy Artifact’ and the ‘Light Saint King,’ favored immensely by the ‘Supreme Holy Artifact.'”
Lin Rui could only give a wry smile at Guang Ming Heart No.
9’s cunning words.
He consulted Lin Xi, the computer expert, in a private chat group and then realized that if those chief priests of the Light Saint Church could modify the thought logic of the Guang Ming Hearts, so could he.
Lin Rui looked outside and asked, “Can you let that chief priest named Meng Jianjie come in?”
Guang Ming Heart No.
9 looked up in astonishment, “Your Highness, under his command, he has gathered numerous followers.
Although he did not bring combat robots this time, he has 200 type-4 and type-5 mechas, equivalent to the strength of two militia battalions!
Moreover, he commands two major priests of the sixth realm.”
“Let him in!” Lin Rui said calmly, “Guide them here per the route I have planned.”
Fei Yunlai, who was nearby, was utterly astonished as he looked at Lin Rui.
A militia battalion along with two sixth-realm individuals, and one seventh-realm, how could they possibly cope?
Was this man insane?
Gong Hengdao, who was on guard outside, was equally shocked; they did not have the strength to battle against two militia battalions.
“Let him in!” Lin Rui said with a slight smile, “You should know my power.”
He simultaneously messaged Xue Lingxue: Are the personnel in place?
White Summer (Xue Lingxue): All 20 members of the 2nd Special Operations Group are in position, and the 55321 Heavy Armored Regiment is also at the designated location on standby.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): As per the map I provided, set the ambush plan!
Though doing so would expose his identity in front of Fei Yunlai, Lin Rui was even less willing to let this Light Saint chief priest, who had killed him once, get away.
Moreover, considering old Fei’s personality, he was very reliable indeed.
Upon hearing this, Guang Ming Heart No.
9 bowed deeply: “As you wish!”
