Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 431

Chapter 431: Solving Possible Problems

“No no no, this problem must be regarded with great importance. It might be an incompatibility in your body because you have just reached Heaven Realm, but it might be hidden injuries in your spirit meridians or sequelae left behind when you fought against the mastermind. These injuries could be minor, but also major. No matter what, since you discovered it early, then treat it early so that you can rest easy later,” Nie Chenglong said.

“When I go back, I’ll make arrangements to have you go through a full check-up in the department’s medical center, and if they can’t discover anything but you still feel bad, I’ll introduce the veteran doctors from other hospitals to you. Don’t worry about the fees, the department will pay for you!”

“That’s right, Meng Chao, if you climb up the cultivation realms too quickly, there are good things and bad things about it. If you don’t pay attention to treating your injuries, the good things might turn bad too.”

Ye Xiaoxing paused for a moment, then said earnestly, “As your captain, of course I hope that my team members have the courage to fight and give their all so that they can make new achievements, but on a personal level, I have to ask you to slow down a little.

“You’re still young. You have endless potential that is waiting for you to uncover. If you seek speed in climbing up the cultivation realms too much and end up with a severe hidden injury or a fatal sequelae, you’ll end up not being able to advance in your cultivation. You’ll suffer more losses than profit, because you’ll be sacrificing your future for temporary gains.

“I’m not telling you to retreat when you run into trouble, but when it comes to cultivation and fighting, you tread on thin ice and must be careful. You must retain the results of your cultivation before you can contribute more to Dragon City, right?”

Since he could say this, Ye Xiaoxing was already a very good leader.

Meng Chao knew that many of the disciplinary organizations and related departments in Dragon City only offered ranks and positions to members when they had the corresponding cultivation realms.

But of course, people still had hope of climbing up the ranks if you performed courageously in battle and raked in a lot of war achievements.

However, if someone ended up performing too courageously to the point that they were wounded badly and could not improve in terms of cultivation realms, it would be difficult for them to reach the top of powerful organizations.

Nie Chenglong was the best example.

His performance in the Red Dragon Army and monster research center was outstanding. He had been engaged in a battle of wits with the monsters for decades, and he had ample experience in exploring the fog. He had outstanding abilities and was fully qualified to become the leader of the abnormal beast research department, but he fought too fiercely when he was young and had plenty of hidden injuries in his body. At the end, he stopped at being a six-star superhuman and could not make it to Deity Realm.

In any normal organization, a superhuman at the peak of Heaven Realm was fully capable of leading the entire department.

But the abnormal beast research department was a really high level department. It hired plenty of Deity Realm superhumans, such as Ye Xiaoxing’s older brother—Broken Sword Ye Xiaoyue.

It would not be too suitable for a Heaven Realm superhuman to lead Deity Realm superhumans.

Hence, Nie Chenglong could only be a vice director and handle the daily tasks.

Meng Chao knew that Nie Chenglong and Ye Xiaoxing spoke with his good in mind, so warmth bloomed in his heart, and he quickly agreed to their offer.

But he would not just be wasting medical resources.

Even if no problems were evident now, it did not mean that there would not be any problems in the future.

He had a vague feeling that after the Demonic Abyss Eye’s stimulation, the soul who returned from the apocalypse would become even more uncontrollable.

There would definitely be problems and obstacles in the fusion of Apocalypse Version Meng Chao and University Student Meng Chao.

There could also be incompatibility between future martial arts and the bodies of current Dragon Citizens.

And what was the true nature of contribution points? If he spent contribution points over a long period of time to repair his body and exchange Skillfulness, would irreversible sequelae be left behind in his genes or cells?

He did not know the answer to these questions.

Doing whatever he wanted while remaining oblivious to the world and thinking that he could become invincible by relying on Kindling alone would most probably lead to him entering spirit energy deviation, and he might end up dead in a ditch somewhere someday.

With the guidance from medical experts and top-grade machines, he could cultivate scientifically. Not only would he be responsible for his own life, he could also gather a large amount of scientifically proven data and guide more superhumans in their cultivation to promote the increase of overall fighting strength of Dragon City.

Hence, Meng Chao happily accepted Nie Chenglong and Ye Xiaoxing’s kind will.

When he saw how friendly and straightforward his two leaders were, he thought of something. He wondered whether he should share the clue about the X-shaped eye with them.

But when he thought about it carefully, even if he provided the clues, he should not do it here.

If the person who created the X-shaped eye around thirty years ago was still around, he or she must definitely be one of the strongest people with the most power in Dragon City.

Even Nie Chenglong, Ye Xiaoxing, and the entire abnormal beast research department might not be able to fight against him or her.

The slightest carelessness would kill him, Lu Siya, Nie Chenglong, and Ye Xiaoxing.

So, he should find some clues and then use other channels to anonymously sent them to the two people. Perhaps that would be the better choice.

After deciding on this, Meng Chao kept the fact about the X-shaped eye to himself. He only mentioned that he hoped that he could continue investigating the cases of Gao Ye, Lin Chuan, and the White Spirit.

Ye Xiaoxing told him that it was a good thing that he was so motivated, but as Gao Ye suffered a blow to this soul, his human part had already vanished, and they could not get a lot of information from the Ultimate Sandworm now, because he had returned to being an ignorant Ultimate Sandworm.

And the mastermind who planned the ambush was torn to shreds and reduced to dust.

The two clues had gone cold turkey.

The abnormal beast research department had managed to find a lot of humans who were involved in this case through Zhou Tianshui. But most of these people were simply deceived by the abnormal beast’s puppet. They did not know that they were helping the enemy do evil.

The case was related to the conflict between the Colonization Party and Home Party, so many of the people who were involved were powerful and famous.

The was also the fight for the right between the research department and the adjudicator court to handle the case. The adjudicator court believed that since the ones related to the case were mostly humans, they should treat them as lost people and let the adjudicator court handle them.

In any case, the whole thing was a huge mess. Meng Chao was a rising superstar, so there was no need for him to get involved in it and end up soiling himself.

“In the next stage, I think you should place your attention on digesting the results of your rise to Heaven Realm and stabilize it. You should also place your attention on expanding the strength of Superstar and the Broken Star Club,” Ye Xiaoxing said.

“Group 9 will always be around, and you will forever be a member of the group. Once we deal with all the mess, punish all the people we should punish, and discover new clues, you can rejoin us and use your intelligence to help us. That is the better plan.

“Of course, during this period of time, you can come in contact with the information, news, and files in Group 9, but you must keep them a secret. You’re also welcome to help us strategize at any moment. Will that be okay with you?”

Meng Chao thought about it carefully.

It was the best plan.

“Sure.” He nodded and thought about it. Then, he said in a troubled manner, “There’s something else. It’s about my family’s safety. No matter what, we caused a huge ruckus this time. What should I do if the abnormal beasts want to harm them?”

This was indeed a problem.

In the past, the monsters were stupid.

Even if a human had killed thousands of monsters, the other monsters were not able to differentiate the human faces and identities. They were unable to find the families of the hunters.

But based on the ambush on Noble Descent Hotel, the newly evolved monsters had already mastered the ability to launch precise attacks.

The transmigration experts were alert now, so it would not be easy to ambush them again.

But Meng Chao’s family were just normal people. They lived in the most average public renting house in a small residential area. It was impossible for them to remain on guard 24/7.

If the family members of the youngest Heaven Realm superhuman in Dragon City were assassinated by the monsters, the abnormal beast research department would not be the only ones who would be humiliated. The morale of all superhumans would plummet to the ground.

“That’s not a problem. Since we won’t let our heroes suffer losses, we also won’t place the families of our heroes under unnecessary risk as well.”

Meng Chao originally thought that this would be a difficult problem.

He did not expect that once Nie Chenglong finished listening to him, he immediately made the decision and said, “This is not your problem alone. It’s also a problem for many of our investigators. To solve this problem and ensure our families’ safety, the department has built a building with funds collected from the investigators where investigators and their families can gather together. The environment there is definitely not as grand as in Dragon City No.1, but it has the best defense and cultivation systems. The monsters will definitely be unable to attack that place.

“Meng Chao, if you need it, I can handle this, because it’s a special case that requires special solutions. I’ll help you get a quota to buy an apartment there.”

Nie Chenglong told Meng Chao that the residential area for the apartments built from the collected funds of the members of the abnormal beast research department consisted of eight apartment buildings. Seven of them were given to the official investigators in the department, and one of them was sold to the people in the market with a 20% discount, but not anyone was able to buy them. They had to go through a strict investigation to ensure that they had a good nature and pure motives.

As of current, the citizens in the residential area consisted of the investigators from the department and their family members, the researchers from the monster research center and their family members, and the lecturers from Agricultural University. After all, the research department had a close working relationship with Agricultural University.

Meng Chao was not an official investigator, so it was naturally impossible for him to get an apartment, but based on his achievements and the very real difficulties he faced, getting him a quota to buy an apartment was not a problem.

The apartments had just been built, so their quality and size were ensured. The environment of the residential area was also pretty decent, and the price not high. The most important thing, though, was that the people living there were all on the same side.

Their fighting power was also pretty good, and the defense system was also designed specifically to target highly-intelligent monsters. In a certain sense, the defense over there was better than in Dragon City No.1.

Besides, the people in the residential area were all people high on the social ladder. If they exchanged experience on how they should cultivate and fight monsters as well as sparred, they could help each other to climb up the cultivation realms.

The residential area was also equipped with its own kindergarten. It was not far away from the monster research center’s apartments for the researchers’ family members. They belonged to the same school district, so the student pool for the elementary schools and middle schools affiliated to the areas was really high as well. The apartments in the area were what you would call property near good schools that could not be bought with money.

The only problem was that the apartments in the residential area were built with collected funds. They were not proper commodity apartments. Once they were bought at a discount of 20%, they could not be sold off within ten years, and if the residents really wanted to sell them off ten years later, they would have to pay from 2% to 3% tax.

But Meng Chao was not someone who invested in real estate. He really needed a new apartment, and this one fulfilled his needs.
