Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 539

Chapter 539: Dying With You

Wild Wolf, Zhang Tie, and the other Wild Wolves could not answer Bai Shan’s question.

Even Meng Chao knew that it was impossible.

While the gangs in the lair looked wild and were at the top of the gray food chain, in truth, they were supported and kept in place by the nine mega corporations. Their means of survival were held by the mega corporations.

When Meng Chao first entered Golden Tooth Lair, Lu Siya led the way to Poison Scorpion, which was supported by Sky Pillar Corporation.

Poison Scorpion was even more respectful to Lu Siya than if she were a real princess.

“The gangs are just the puppets and tools of the mega corporations. They help the mega corporations do the dirty, tiring, and shady work that they can’t do. When someone needs to assume responsibility, they will jump out on their own and be the scapegoats.” Bai Shan continued laughing coldly. “Even the gang leader of the strongest gang in the lair, Saber Jin Wanhao the Underground Emperor of Dragon City, is a loyal dog kept by the mega corporations.

“Dragon City has plenty of Deity Realm superhumans who have the world at their beck and call. They also have an astronomical amount of tactical resources, so do you really think that if they wanted to completely solve the problems in the lair, the gangs and the Underground Emperor would be able to stop them?

“But why should the Deity Realm superhumans in control of the mega corporations want to solve the problems in the lair?

“Without the gangs, who would help the bright, beautiful, noble superhumans, heroes, guardian gods, and saviors do their dirty, tiring, and shady work? How could they get cheap consumables like the villagers who are useful but it won’t matter even if all of them died?

“Even if Wild Wolves really surpassed Golden Tooth and became the strongest gang in the lair, it’d be impossible for it to challenge the nine great mega corporations outside the lair.

“We only have two choices in front of us. Either we become untameable so those Deity Realm superhumans from the mega corporations will come to break us or kill us, or we bend our backs and become another dog of the mega corporations.

“Admit it, Wild Wolf, the current Dragon City is ruled by Deity Realm superhumans and mega corporations. If we don’t bring in external power and just rely on ourselves, it’ll be impossible for us to turn over this unfair order!”

“And this external power is the monsters?” Wild Wolf asked grimly. “Bai Shan, do you know that you’re inviting the enemy into your own home?!”

“I know, but we have no other choice,” Bai Shan said calmly. “Usually, inviting the enemy into your own home is a really stupid move, but what if there is already an enemy in your home?

“What if this enemy has been living in your home for decades and has been sucking your blood, eating your flesh, swallowing your bones, and sticking your flesh on its own body so that it can pretend to be noble, righteous, and even say that it’s the master of your home and it’s the one protecting the safety of your home so no predators from outside can invade us?

“Then, it also says that you must reward its efforts so that it will continue protecting your home. It’ll say that it’s completely logical and right for it to continue eating you, or at least, that it has no other choice. So, it will continue eating you for eternity. What if that is what is happening?

“Since my mother and countless villagers have been killed and eaten by the enemy in our home, the ending wouldn’t be that terrible even if I invited another enemy or brought all the predators inside.”

“Aren’t you afraid that Leprosy Village will be completely destroyed in that chaotic storm?!” Wild Wolf asked sternly.

“If the so-called order is to have the villagers continue tolerating the oppression of the mega corporations and be continuously hurt, have their rights encroached upon, and be enslaved until their shining bones are reduced to ashes without making a single sound, then who said that chaos is definitely evil?

“So, I’m looking forward to the arrival of chaos. It would be the best if Leprosy Village— No, the lair… No, all of Dragon City ended up in chaos. It’s only this way that the mega corporations and the highly intelligent monsters would both be heavily injured and we’d have the chance to counterattack.”

“Have you ever thought about how many people would die in that chaos?” Wild Wolf gritted his teeth. “All the villagers might die!”

“So? Look at us. Look at the villagers. Instead of living like ugly, deformed, walking corpses and dying silently, is all of us dying at once really that difficult to accept? If my mother did not take up the responsibility to care for her children, I believe that she would have chosen to end her life much earlier.”

Bai Shan smiled even brighter, and her eyes shone with a burning light. “I see two paths ahead of me, and they lead to two different futures.

“The first is that all of Dragon Citizens, including the villagers, will be squeezed out to the last drop of blood so that the nine mega corporations could win against the monsters. Then, the mega corporations’ rule will become even more stable, and the rich people controlling the mega corporations will become even richer and stronger.

“Now, a Deity Realm superhuman can already fight against one hundred or one thousand normal people. At that time, the truly powerful who have surpassed Deity Realm will be able to fight against ten thousand, one thousand thousand, or even one million normal people!

“In that sort of future, no one will be able to fight against the rule of the truly powerful. Only those truly powerful and their mega corporations would be able to define what is just, evil, order, chaos, loyalty, betrayal, morals, and civilization. In the meantime, we and our descendants would have to curl up in illegal workshops filled with smog and polluted water. We would end up as gears made of flesh and blood in the roaring production lines of the mega corporations.

“At that time, there will no longer be anything like the monsters who can challenge their rule. We will never be able to enjoy good lives. The only thing that will come to us is the apocalypse.

“The second future has certain traitors of human civilization joining the monsters and dragging human civilization back. Once the monsters won and killed all the peerless elites as well as destroyed the mega corporations, all Dragon Citizens, regardless of whether they’re the rich people dressed in pretty clothes from the mega corporations that above everyone else or the most lowly deformees from Leprosy Village, will face the only thing that is fair in the world—death.

“Let me tell you something, even if you gave me a chance to choose again… No, even if you gave me ten or one hundred chances, I would choose the second future every time, without hesitation!”

“Bai Shan, you’ve… really gone mad.” Wild Wolf’s voice trembled.

“Perhaps. But I was born in the mad Other World. No one can stop themselves from going mad here.”

Bai Shan seemed to have thought of something very interesting, and she said with a smile, “Did you know? When those people came to me with the Deification Capsules and said all sorts of exaggerated things to tempt me, I didn’t hear a single thing. I was not interested in how the Deification Capsules could make normal people temporarily gain supernatural abilities and stand above superhumans or whatever it is.

“The only thing I was interested in was that the Deification Capsules could activate the genes that have been sleeping for billions of years in the depths of human cells and allow humans to show partial signs of atavism, so they would gain all sorts of strange and hideous appearances.

“I was thinking of spraying Deification Capsule liquid all over Dragon City.

“I want all Dragon Citizens who claim themselves to be healthy, normal humans to end up as ugly as us and taste the pain the villagers had been feeling for decades.

“If thousands of Dragon Citizens turned ugly, at that time, all of us would be no different from each other and we could finally walk out with our heads held high and bask in the brightest rays of sunlight, right?

“Even if I could only be under the sun for one second and Dragon City would be destroyed by monsters the next second, it wouldn’t matter.

“After all, before this, we’ve never basked under the sun for even a second!”

Bai Shan was like a demon born from the eternal flames in hell and giggled with joy.

Wild Wolf sighed and said, “Bai Shan, looks like you’ve been overcome by hate.

“The old village chief told us many times that we can hate the gangs and the mega corporations, but we’re not to let our hatred control us. Otherwise, our judgment and actions will just lead to greater tragedies.

“If you still remember how the old village chief took care of us in the past and helped us awaken to supernatural abilities, if you still remember all the people in Leprosy Village and the children whose fates should not have been decided by your hate, if you still remember the oath we swore when we set up Wild Wolves in the past, then tell us where your comrades are.

“Your comrades are the robbers who created the Deification Capsules. Where are they hiding, and what is their next step? Where is the abnormal beast hiding behind them? Tell me, Bai Shan! Tell me!”

“It’s useless…” Bai Shan’s eyes refocused, and she looked like she was laughing and crying at the same time. “First, we have always been contacting each other through single-line communication. Those people are cunning and have a lot of hiding places. They often change spots, and I don’t know where they are.

“Second, even if you went to stop them now, it’d be too late. They should have already carried out the next step.”

Wild Wolf’s pupils shrank rapidly. “What? How did they know—”

“How did they know that I’m already exposed?” Bai Shan smiled and turned her gaze to Meng Chao. “Did you actually think that once you captured the mouse I used to send messages, you could stop all lines of communication and your job would be done?

“You should know that no information is also an important piece of information in certain situations, right?

“I made a promise with those people that I will send a mouse to them at set periods of time, even if everything was going smoothly.

“That mouse doesn’t have any metal tubes, so naturally, it doesn’t have any messages on it. At first glance, it’s a mouse you can meet everywhere in the lair. It’s just that it’s ears are a little larger, and the edges of those ears are deformed.

“In truth, the deformity at the edges of its ears is a specially designed barcode that cannot be imitated and is one of a kind. As long as they see this mouse, those people will know that I’m safe and will continue with their next course of action according to the original plan.

“Now that they didn’t see any new mice for a long time, they must know that I’ve been captured and might tell you everything, so they will immediately change the plan and the rhythm to carry it out.”
