Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 518

Chapter 518: For Steak!

Meng Chao had nothing to say about that.

He was stunned for a long time before he heaved a long sigh and said, “Looks like you won’t believe anything I say. Alright, I won’t force you. Go.”

He waved his hand to chase A’Ji away.

He did this so readily that it made A’Ji uncertain.

Meng Chao saw his uncertainty and stared into A’Ji’s eyes. “But there is one thing that you must know clearly. Right now, the enemy is causing trouble in your home.

“If you’re filled with resentment for the outside world because of your experiences over the past few decades and decide to act rashly because you think the situation is hopeless, the first thing you’ll be destroying will be yourselves.

“The enemy has already begun its operation. Before long, the village chief, Wild Wolf, and Ms. Mulian, who healed you before, will end up in the enemy’s claws. At that time, Leprosy Village will descend into chaos, and the villagers will even become the weapons of the enemy. It will use all of you to stab Dragon City’s most vulnerable parts.

“Once the enemy succeeds in its scheme, I don’t know whether those powerful people high above will still be able to feed their pet dogs steaks, but I know that all of you in Leprosy Village will definitely find yourself in ruins.

“If that’s the end you want, then hurry up and leave. Search for the best seat, open your eyes wide, and watch Leprosy Village be destroyed in this vortex!”

A’Ji clenched his teeth tightly. His body shuddered, but it looked like he was rooted to the ground.

He hesitated for a long time before he said, “If those superhumans in skeleton masks aren’t your friends, then where are your friends?”

Meng Chao thought about this for a while and said honestly, “I won’t lie to you. For the time being, my friends are dead, injured, gone, or captured by the enemy. I should be the only one left who can carry out the operation. But I’m injured as well, and I can’t bring out all of my fighting strength. Communications here have also been blocked, so I can’t send any information outward.”

A’Ji’s eyes went wide and he cried out in surprise. “Then, aren’t you fighting alone?”

“I’m not fighting alone. I have you and all the villagers.” Meng Chao smiled.

A’Ji did not know what sort of expression he should have.

It seemed like no one had ever said that kind of thing to him, and he did not know how to react.

He was stunned for a long time before he stuttered, “Wh-What can we do?”

“Do the same thing as the citizens outside. Protect our home. This is the only home we have, and it’s the home we share.”

Meng Chao spoke clearly and firmly. “I don’t care whether you believe me or not, but I swear to you that once this battle comes to an end, I will do everything it takes to change the lair and Leprosy Village and promote the plan to improve the living conditions of the people here.

“Trust me, all the villagers in Leprosy Village will definitely be able to eat nice, hot steaks in the future!”

A’Ji’s eyelashes fluttered, and his lips quivered.

He did not seem to want to believe it, but he could not stop himself from believing. “Then… I’ll… bring you to Ms. Mulian?”

“We must first understand the superhumans in skeleton masks who are pretending to be the hunting squad. Then, once we meet Ms. Mulian, Wild Wolf, and the others, we’ll have something to tell them. Wait for me here.”

Meng Chao attached himself to the wall of the building again and climbed to the roof, which was dozens of meters from where he had been.

With the cover provided by the waterproof canvas, he looked like a huge chameleon. He blended with the mottled wall of the building.

He narrowed his eyes and observed the “hunting squad”‘s movements.

The frauds seemed to have been sent to stir up the anger in the villagers. Compared to capturing people, they were more concerned with causing destruction in Leprosy Village. They enjoyed that a lot.

They activated their spirit energy magnetic fields and made their spirit flames burn fiercely. Then, they did not control the shockwaves charging out from them like avalanches. In just half an hour, they destroyed a lot of buildings in Leprosy Village.

The villagers were livid, but they did not dare to say anything.

One of the reasons was because they were afraid of these people’s fearsome power.

The other reason was because they heard that they came from the world outside, and their backgrounds were even greater than those of the gangs in the lair. No one dared to provoke them.

Because of it, Meng Chao could easily locate where they were.

He also found a “captor” who was far away from his squad.

Meng Chao silently climbed back to the ground.

This time, A’Ji had not run away. He stayed obediently where he was.

Meng Chao told him, “There is a captor two streets away from here. He’s in a building with more than twenty floors and a lot of neon lights on the walls.

“Sneak around the building and lure that person over. We’ll see how strong he is.”

A’Ji scratched his head and said, “I know how to be sneaky, but why would that guy be interested in me?”

“Take out the crystal I just gave you,” Meng Chao said.

A’Ji felt a little hesitant. He put his hand into his crotch, groped around, and brought out the crystal.

“…” Meng Chao frowned a little before he released a bit of spirit energy into the crystal.

The crystal shuddered a little and released the sound of a wind chime. It started shining brightly.

“I activated the spirit energy reaction in the crystal. Even if you stuff it into your crotch, when a superhuman looks at you, the crystal will be like a shining lightbulb and reveal its presence,” Meng Chao said. “There’s no reason for a Leprosy Village boy like you to have a high-purity crystal that’s worth cities. This will definitely stir up his curiosity.

“So pretend to look guilty and run. That superhuman will definitely chase after you, understand?”

A’Ji’s eyes sparkled and he nodded. “Got it. But what if he alerts his friends and a group of them surrounds me? Uncle, you’re injured, and your chest is still bleeding. Can you fight against so many armed superhumans?”

“We’ll take a gamble,” Meng Chao said. “The enemy has performed an interference that blocks all frequencies, and all communications are cut off. We’re unable to contact the outside world, but the enemy’s walkie-talkies and other communicators should also be useless.

“Right now, the only form of communication in Leprosy Village and perhaps all of Golden Tooth Lair is shouting.

“As long as you run fast, the enemy will have no time to contact his friends, so he will have to come after you alone.

“But I reckon that he won’t even think about notifying his friends. These people are really arrogant. They don’t think that the villagers are of any threat.”

“But he’s a superhuman. What if he catches up to me in just a few seconds. What should I do?”

“You have me,” Meng Chao said. “We’re in a hurry. Time’s wasting. Don’t you want to eat steak?”

A’Ji gulped.

The fragrant, warm steak helped him summon his courage.

He stuffed the crystal back into his crotch and tightened his belt before running to the entrance of the alley.

After just taking a few steps forward, he ran back and stared at Meng Chao with a strange expression.

“What’s wrong?” Meng Chao frowned.

“Uncle, how did you find me just now?” A’Ji asked. “I was already four streets away, and I used the cloak to completely hide myself. There were around one thousand people dressed like me in the streets nearby. How were you able to locate me so accurately and see through my disguise immediately?”

“Um…” Meng Chao did not know how he should explain it.

“It’s this crystal, right?” A’Ji narrowed his eyes and pouted. “When you gave the crystal to me in the beginning, you did something to it. This isn’t a deposit. You placed a tracker on me. You don’t trust me at all!”

“Don’t bother about the details. What’s important is to save your home and eat steak!” Meng Chao said. “Hurry up and go. Remember to try and sneak around as much as you can so you lure the enemy here. I will be close behind you!”

“I knew it. All of you people outside are cunning,” A’Ji mumbled under his breath.

Then, like a rat that had stolen something, he stuck close to the wall, went to an alley, and blended into the crowd.

Even though he was just like the other people in the streets who wore gray cloaks, had either transparent or ink-colored goggles over their eyes, and used simple masks or anti-poison filtration masks to cover their faces, the crystal in his crotch was like a shining firefly in the dark. It instantly attracted the attention of the “captor” in the building ahead.

The “captor” jumped out of the building, and with the jets in the motorized armor, he levitated in the air and searched for the spirit energy reaction in the crowd.

A’Ji hunched his shoulders and acted like a rat that had been discovered after it stole grain. He turned tail and ran into an alley.

The “captor” snorted coldly and stared at him from above. Then, he shot down at A’Ji like a falcon.

A’Ji yelped and increased his speed. Then, as if he was making a panicked decision, he ran into a deadend.

The end of that alley was filled with stinking trash.

A’Ji scrambled toward the trash like he wanted to crawl inside it because he had nowhere else to go.

The “captor” chased after him and was about to approach the trash when because of A’Ji acting over the top or because this “captor” had sensed a dangerous presence, he suddenly stopped moving. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the trash.

Craaccccckkkkkk.

The weapon system behind the motorized armor was activated, and two hornet rocket launchers rose on his shoulders.

When he saw the shoulder rocket launchers, A’Ji was so terrified that his face turned pale. He shouted at the trash, “UNCLE!”

A brutal smile appeared under the skeleton mask, and he was just about to fire when a black figure shot out like lightning from the shadow behind him instead of the trash in front of him.

Whoosh!

The saber glare moved like the wind, and with an upward motion, it went for the spot between his legs.

No matter how great the defense of the motorized armor was, to ensure the agility of the legs, it was impossible for the defense at the waist, thighs, and crotch to be as great as at the chest.

When the “captor” sensed the bone-chilling saber glare seeping into his crotch and invading his urinary system, his face turned pale.

But fortunately, he was a veteran superhuman who had survived through countless battles and had loads of experience.

He immediately made his decision and growled, then turned around and kicked sideways. The entire process was over in one breath, and at the final moment, he avoided the fatal slash that would have cut him in half.

But a second slash came down on his head 0.1 seconds later.
