Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 1823

1823 Lu Siya’s Plan

“So, it was really you who left Horizon Biotechnology Co. Ltd.’s sign in Tailless Monkey’s kitchen and led me to Universe Corporation step by step. By chance, I stopped the assassination attempt on Shen Yuanbao and finally found your grandfather, Lu Zhongqi, as well as the Blood Alliance, that had been lurking in the nine mega corporations…”

Meng Chao fell into deep thought. “Wait a minute… If that’s the case, then your plan’s far from just this.

“From the moment you hired Tailless Monkey to help you find a reporter to interview Shen Yulin, you were planning a complicated game of chess.

“At that time, I was still deep within the Holy Mountain Temple in Picturesque Orchid Lake, in a state of near death.

!!
“It’s obvious that you couldn’t have guessed that I would be back in Dragon City at this time.

“Therefore, in your original plan, you were prepared to raise a storm on your own even without me, am I right?”

“That’s right.”

Lu Siya seemed calm and happy. “Your appearance was an accident. Of course, it was an accident that made me cheer and cry with joy.”

“So, what exactly are you planning to do?”

Meng Chao stared at Lu Siya.

“Same as you, destroy the Blood Alliance,” Lu Siya said with a clear conscience.

“So, you knew about the Blood Alliance’s existence a long time ago?”

Meng Chao quickly looked back.

“I didn’t realize that the organization lurking in the nine mega corporations was the resurgent Blood Alliance,”Lu Siya said.

“But I did sense it. After Dragon City’s victory, there seemed to be a terrifying undercurrent hidden under the seemingly bright and prosperous scene. And this undercurrent was very likely related to my grandfather, Lu Zhongqi.

“The most direct evidence is the mutation that happened to me.

“Think about it. When and how did the monster mastermind’s power enter my body?

“You must know that those weren’t ordinary Blood Flower spores. They were the supreme crystallization of the monster civilization. It was unlikely that the ‘implantation’ could have occurred by accidentally touching or inhaling a trace of any material during a fierce battle, right?

“After thinking about it, I could have only been invaded by the monster mastermind when I was in a deep sleep and in a daze during my immersive training.

“However, training is a very private matter. In the entire Dragon City, there are only two people who have my unreserved trust and the ability to approach me when I’m in deep sleep. One of them is you, and the other is my grandfather, Lu Zhongqi. Aside from you, even my father has no chance.

“Since you had already fallen into the Raging Tiger River, with no bones left and no one knowing whether you were alive or dead, the only suspect left was naturally my grandfather.”

“So, you launched an investigation on Lu Zhongqi in secret?” Meng Chao continued to ask.

“That’s right. You might find it strange that I so easily determined that there was something wrong with my grandfather, even though our relationship was very good,” Lu Siya said.

“That’s because you haven’t been in contact with my grandfather for a long time. You don’t understand his true thoughts.

“In fact, very few people knew that my grandfather, Lu Zhongqi, one of Dragon City’s first-generation Deity Realm warriors, the leader of the largest mining group in Dragon City, the president of Dragon City’s Crystal Association, the best spirit energy user and crystal specialist in Dragon City, was a ‘mainstays’ or even a ‘giant pillar’ of the city in every aspect. He had been a pessimist since a long time ago.

“Even when I was young, he would often hug me and sigh after a day of heavy work and research, thinking that the future of Dragon City civilization was extremely bleak.

“From my grandfather’s point of view, everything the Dragon City civilization currently has—law, morality, technology, culture, and even human nature—were all developed based on the spiritless environment of Earth. They’re not suitable for the objective reality of the Other World, which is rich in spirit energy.

“With the rapid development of spirit martial arts and rune technology, the gap between people will only continue to widen, not be narrowed. This gap will no longer be limited to wisdom and wealth, but it will penetrate deep into the people’s cells and even genes. From power to lifespan, it will widen and grow apart in all aspects, until humans split into two different species.

“In the process, the original laws, morals, technology, culture, and humanity of human beings will all be greatly impacted, deconstructed, and rebuilt. Unless we are reborn, our civilization will not have new hope.

“My grandfather’s pain was that he didn’t know what to do, whether he should support and push for this change or not.

“My grandfather firmly believed that if we continued to cling to the ethics and morals of the Earth era, as well as the definition of human beings, then it’s almost impossible for our civilization to last for the next hundred years. It’s very likely that in a short ten to twenty years after the fog that envelops Dragon City has dissipated, Dragon City will fall apart and be completely destroyed.

“However, if we push for the fiercest reform according to the Other World’s environment, even if our civilization survives in the end, it will become unrecognizable, weird, abnormal, and even hideous in the eyes of today’s people. By then, ‘human beings’ will probably completely forget their identity as transmigrators from Earth and call themselves the natives of the Other World. It’s hard to say whether it’s a victory or a tragedy for the civilization as a whole.

“Back then, I was still young, and my grandfather was depressed and had no one to talk to. He would often mutter to himself in front of me.

“He thought that I didn’t understand, but he didn’t know that I remembered his every word and action.

“It wasn’t until the moment I discovered the anomaly in my body that I immediately guessed that my grandfather had finally made up his mind to push the entire civilization forward in a new direction at all costs, even at the cost of his life and reputation.”

“So, what’s your stand?”

Meng Chao said, “If you supported Lu Zhongqi, you shouldn’t have investigated him in secret and even provided me with clues. I can tell that Lu Zhongqi didn’t treat you as an ordinary test subject or a chess piece that could be sacrificed at any time. He raised you as his only successor. To a certain extent, you were even more important than Yun Feidian, the leader of the Blood Alliance, in his heart!

“I believe that someone as smart as you should’ve been able to see this.

“Unless you possess a different ideology, you had no reason to oppose your grandfather.

“The problem is, I don’t think that you’re a ‘traditional humanist’ who believes that the laws, morals, humanity, and even the appearance of Earth’s humans cannot be changed.

“I feel that as long as you can win the final victory, you don’t even mind being more radical than Lu Zhongqi.”
