“So—”
Lu Siya’s thin and long eyebrows were as still as two scimitars, but her voice suddenly turned dozens of degrees colder, as though sharp ice was about to spurt out of her mouth, “You’re the mastermind behind The Bright Light’s explosion? “You are the ones who single-handedly orchestrated the tragedy, burned the blood of countless innocent people, and provoked the conflict between the nine great clans and millions of ordinary citizens. Even I was almost involved in that soul-stirring conflict, hence I ended up in Universe Corporation’s headquarters.”
“The Monster War has lasted for decades. The blood of the innocent has long converged into rivers, lakes, and oceans. Adding a few more drops is of little significance.”
The seven puppets tacitly agreed to their own point and spoke in a more serious tone, “What’s important is that with the sudden end of the Monster War, Dragon City fell into a short period of confusion and even chaos. Many people no longer behaved themselves and obediently carried out the mission that they should have carried out. Instead, they developed delusions and ambitions that they shouldn’t have. They tried to use their stupid brains to think about Dragon City’s future.
“No, although the monsters have been subdued, there must be more enemies in the vast depths of the Other World. They are more terrifying than the monsters. If we want to defeat these enemies and completely conquer the Other World, the Dragon City civilization must be like it was in the past, when the Monster War was at its most intense. The people should condense into a command-and-order army that is willing to sacrifice itself.
!!
“Most importantly, in an army, there is only one voice.
“It is the duty of the soldiers to obey orders. There is no need to think at all. Thinking is the commander’s power, which will belong to you and me.
“Everything we do is to seize control of Dragon City as soon as possible and allow all the citizens of Dragon City, like the different branches of an army, to carry out their jobs.
“If something unexpected happens during this process, please believe that it’s definitely not our intention.
“In fact, if it weren’t for some guys with ulterior motives who kept inciting the ordinary citizens to oppose us, a tragedy like The Bright Light’s explosion could have been completely avoided.”
The seven puppets sighed at the same time.
It was as if they really cared about the lives of the hundreds of innocent civilians who had died tragically in the explosion.
“Understood.”
Lu Siya was unmoved. Her gaze was like a sharp blade that had been sharpened. “In other words, as long as those ‘malicious fellows’ continue to incite the ordinary citizens to go against you, tragedies like The Bright Light’s explosion will happen repeatedly. The blood of more and more innocent civilians will flow into the unfathomable sea of blood that has been formed from the Monster War for decades?”
The seven puppets laughed lightly.
“Lu Siya, whether or not more innocent blood will flow in vain is not up to us, but up to you.”
The seven puppets lowered their voices until they sounded like murmuring demons. “As long as you agree to join ‘us,’ both sides will work together in secret and support each other, seizing the power of the nine mega corporations and the Azure Alliance respectively. What right do those guys with ulterior motives have to stand in our way?
“Once we firmly control Dragon City’s destiny and all the citizens become our close comrades-in-arms who have conquered the Other World, how can we sacrifice them in vain?
“Now, decide whether you will become us or our enemy, whether you will be the hero who solves The Bright Light’s explosion and stops a larger-scale conspiracy, or whether you will be the mastermind behind The Bright Light’s explosion and a series of larger-scale conspiracies.”
Lu Siya was silent for a long time.
“It seems that you are planning something even larger and crueler than The Bright Light’s explosion.”
Lu Siya opened her mouth slowly. “I’m very curious. If I really join you, who will be the mastermind behind the larger scheme? What kind of truth will I find and whom will I accuse under your control?”
The seven puppets smiled. “You’ll find out when you join us.”
“Very good. I’ve learned enough.”
Lu Siya looked around. Looking at the guys with different appearances but equally hideous expressions, she responded resolutely, enunciating each word. “Based on the information you’ve given, I can give you an answer that I will never change after careful consideration. No, I refuse. I will never become one of you sc*mbags!”
Lu Siya’s voice was low, but it was like a sledgehammer that shattered the expressions on the seven puppets’ faces.
“Why?”
The seven puppets were furious from embarrassment. “Lu Siya, you don’t have to lie to yourself anymore. We know you better than anyone else. We understand your ruthlessness and unscrupulous methods. Although you are known as Meng Chao’s close comrade, you are definitely not the kind of idiot who is willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of an innocent person she doesn’t know. No matter how well you put on your mask, deep down, you don’t care about things like The Bright Light’s explosion. You only care about yourself. You only care about your own ambitions!”
“Perhaps, you are right. I don’t really care about the innocent victims of that incident.”
Lu Siya shrugged and casually said, “However, I can’t ignore the fact that you are about to plan a larger and crueler scheme than The Bright Light’s explosion.
“You said that as long as I am willing to compromise, I can be the hero to stop the scheme.
“The question is, which ‘devil’ am I going to stop this conspiracy from?
“I think that this ‘devil’ isn’t one of you, but your competitor. He’s a thorn in your flesh, a roadblock on your path to the highest power.
“And the guy who’s qualified to be your competitor, a thorn in your flesh, and a roadblock, whether he belongs to the nine mega corporations, the Azure Alliance, or the Red Dragon Army, is bound to be a famous, high-level, and powerful figure.
“In other words, if I want to join you and become a ‘heroine or female warrior,’ the first thing I need to do is help you. No, I need to take your place to accuse and destroy a world-famous figure. That is my ‘pledge of allegiance,’ isn’t it?
“It doesn’t matter if I have the ability to destroy such a big figure and resist the intense revenge that he will inevitably launch.
“Should I help you to frame this big shot as the mastermind behind The Bright Light’s bombing, as well as a larger conspiracy, and destroy him to death, I would also have a weakness that can never be covered up and erased, which will fall into your hands. You’ll be able to completely use this stain to control me forever and turn me into a puppet that is tightly bound by your strings like the seven pitiful worms in front of you, right?”
