Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 576
Chapter 576: The Queen Bee’s Thoughts
Meng Chao shuddered.
‘Was I discovered?’
He suddenly felt that he was a little too rash. Right now, both he and his enemy did not understand each other, and he was too close to his target.
No matter what, he and Lu Siya were both cleansed by Red Radiance Jades and Blue Origin Crystals.
Their vitality magnetic fields had converged when the spirit energy crashed into them.
They fought side by side later on and experienced a series of shocking, bloody battles. They had literally faced death together, and during those moments, they shared a form of resonance that was similar to telepathy.
Besides, Lu Siya was a Spirit Sensor.
Meng Chao had absolute confidence that he could deceive everyone beneath Deity Realm, but he did not have the confidence to deceive Lu Siya.
He could not help but hesitate about opening the shaft and jumping out to explain things.
Most of the people in the open-air arena were Red Brows Su Lun and Phantom Bear Xiong Wei’s people. Both of them had a motive to kill Meng Chao on sight.
Yet Meng Chao could not kill the gang members since they were just deceived and it would make things worse.
Meng Chao did not think that he could explain things clearly and make others believe him while screaming and dodging bullets.
He had to think of a way to talk to Lu Siya alone.
Perhaps she had that intention as well, because she only cast a brief glance at the spot where Meng Chao was hiding before she moved her gaze away and continued talking happily to Red Brows Su Lun.
It seemed like she had not discovered him yet.
‘Did she really not notice me?’ Meng Chao scratched his head. He could not quite guess Lu Siya’s thoughts.
He thought about it for a while, then came up with a plan to test things.
He crawled down along the steel ropes.
The area locking up the monsters had polluted air and a dirty environment.
Aside from the large and fierce beasts, it also had a lot of pests , just like any other place in the lair.
Meng Chao quietly fired off a chain saber and soon captured a rat.
He pinned the rat under his foot so that it would not let out a single sound.
Then, he brought Bloody Saber out and used the tip of his chain saber to loosen its crystal.
Bloody Soul’s core was made of the one and only Red Radiance Jade crystal marrow.
The crystal was fixed firmly in place, so there was no need for him to change it. Not that he could change it, anyway.
But to allow the Red Radiance Jade crystal marrow to release the strongest spirit energy impact, there were nine other holes on the saber, and different crystals were embedded in them. They could form complicated spirit energy magnetic fields of different attributes with the Red Radiance Jade crystal marrow.
The nine supporting crystals could be changed.
Usually, after one battle, the spirit energy contained inside would be completely drained, so the originally brilliant crystalline jewel would become a normal, gray and black stone that would crumble at the gentlest touch.
Meng Chao pressed down on the groove beside the hole, which would allow him to change the crystals. Then, he easily removed one Red Radiance Jade.
In the earlier fights, this Red Radiance Jade had released more than 70% of its spirit energy, so it looked dark and brittle.
Meng Chao clenched it lightly, and with a light crack, it turned into fine powder.
He mixed the powder into adhesive liquid made from a monster and covered the rat in it.
After that, he injected some spirit energy into it to make the molecular levels of the Red Radiance Jade powder tremble. The rat immediately started shining with a dark red light in the darkness.
Crystals had really strong radiation, but different crystals released different levels of radiation.
Experienced superhumans, especially mine explorers, could use different radiation levels to accurately determine the types of crystals they were handling.
Meng Chao believed that with Lu Siya’s ability, she could instantly detect that there was something that reminded her of Red Radiance Jades sneaking around at high speed under Mutual Gold Coliseum.
This would be Meng Chao’s signal to Lu Siya.
With this thought in mind, he sent the rat covered in Red Radiance Jade powder into a ventilation pipe.
He also used a really thin harvesting blade to leave a small gash on its butt.
The rat jumped in pain and immediately ran into the ventilation pipe.
Meng Chao climbed up the steel rope and returned to the area near the crack. He adjusted his angle and quietly observed Lu Siya.
Just as she expected, she soon reacted.
But against Meng Chao’s expectations, after her expression changed, she leaned closer to Red Brows Su Lun and Phantom Bear Xiong Wei to say something to them.
Then, Su Lun and Xiong Wei became nervous.
Both of them gave quick orders.
The entire open-air arena roared with the engines of the motorized armor and the clicks of people loading up heavy weapons.
Lu Siya waved her hand, and together with Xiong Wei, she led the heavy armored fighters carrying all sorts of guns into the depths of Mutual Gold Coliseum through the tunnel under the audience seats.
Judging by their heavy footsteps, they were running in the direction of the rat covered in Red Radiance Jade powder.
‘No way.’ Meng Chao could not understand it. ‘Lu Siya noticed my “tracks”, and she immediately told Red Brows Su Lun and Phantom Xiong Wei? And she even personally led a large group of people with Xiong Wei to come after my life?
‘Could it be that she believed Red Brows Su Lun’s lies that I’ve come under the control of the abnormal beast and betrayed Dragon City?
‘But she noticed me while lurking up here before. Why didn’t she call the people over at that time?
‘It’s clear that if she had alerted the people back then, it would have been easier to capture me. As long as Phantom Bear Xiogn Wei led thousands of armored fighters to charge at me, then even if I were made of metal and had multiple heads and arms, I’d still be squashed like a bug.’
Meng Chao could not figure out why Lu Siya had two completely different reactions within just a few short minutes.
At that moment, Lu Siya had already left his field of vision, so all possibility of them interacting with each other through their gazes and understanding each other’s minds was gone.
Meng Chao wracked his brains, but he just could not figure out what Lu Siya was trying to do.
But then again, trying to figure out a woman’s mind had always been harder than trying to stop the apocalypse.
Besides, this was Lu Siya, the Queen Bee.
However, Meng Chao noticed that when Lu Siya left, she created a perfect chance for him.
‘Wait, Lu Siya and Phantom Bear Xiong Wei led the forces after the “me” who is crawling all over the place in the ventilation pipes.’ The gears in Meng Chao’s mind turned. ‘But Red Brows Su Lun is the highest commander of the lair, and on the surface, he relies on his head to earn a living. He doesn’t have a lot of fighting strength, so it’s only natural that he would stay here to give orders instead of going to the frontlines to fight.
‘There aren’t many armed forces in the open-air arena. If I stake everything and launch a direct attack…’
Did Lu Siya intentionally lead Phantom Bear Xiong Wei and the other elites away to create a chance for him to kill the leader of the enemy forces?
The more Meng Chao pondered over this, the more ridiculous he found it.
Besides, he checked the time. There was less than seven hours before the deadline he had agreed upon with Wild Wolf.
Also, the number of floating particles containing heavy radiation and pollution were increasing.
This meant that the fires in Leprosy Village and the borders of the lair were not being extinguished. They were getting stronger instead.
Even if Wild Wolf was willing to wait for Meng Chao, the fire was not going to wait.
Meng Chao had to seize any chance to get rid of the Vortex and its puppets.
It was the only way he could unify the resources in the lair and make the people extinguish the fire together so they could save their home!
Meng Chao did not have the time to think.
He gritted his teeth and disappeared into the darkness once more.
Then, three minutes later, he found a suitable target—a Golden Tooth member who was alone.
It was a man in an airtight heavy motorized armor.
He had a large ammunition box on his back, a multi-turreted mortar on his shoulder and arm, and other heavy machine guns strapped around his body. It was a sign that he was a damage dealer in his squad.
However, if anyone wanted to fire eight heavy machine guns at the same time, they would need high specifications for the machine components of their motorized armor.
This meant that the highly sophisticated and complicated heavy armor could easily malfunction.
The man’s armor seemed to have run into some small problem, which was why he had stopped and was behind his comrades.
Due to a coincidence, he ended up in Meng Chao’s sights.
When Meng Chao saw that there was no one around, he shot out like a ghost from a cannon and quickly approached the Golden Tooth gang member from behind.
It was only when the tip of his palm touched the back of the Golden Tooth gang member’s head that the man realized what was going on.
But it was already too late.
Meng Chao pushed forward gently, and his spirit energy crashed into the man’s head like a huge, eighteen-wheel truck with cotton around it.
The man’s soft brain tissues crashed hundreds of times against his sturdy skull, and before he could even grunt, he fainted.
Meng Chao dragged the man and the motorized armor into the storeroom he found in the corner.
He immediately checked the man’s breathing and heartbeat. When he noticed that his physiological parameters were stable and showed no signs of danger to his life, which meant that he would not suffer any sequelae, Meng Chao sighed in relief.
“I’m sorry, Bro.” Meng Chao patted the man’s shoulder. He quickly activated the motorized armor, dragged the man out, and crawled in.
“Huff! Ha!”
Meng Chao growled, and spirit energy filled his body to increase his blood circulation so that his muscles would fill with blood and swell up. Even his bones started making cracking sounds and became bigger.
His size instantly matched that of the man on the ground, and he perfectly fit with the motorized armor.
Due to the major interference from the spirit energy magnetic fields, the communication channel only had white noise, so he was not worried about exposing himself.
Meng Chao stood up on unsteady feet and moved his limbs a little before he strutted to the open-air arena.
He came out in time to see Red Brows Su Lun entering the tunnel under the VIP seat. He had to have gone to the command center.
There were only two guards behind him.
There was no better chance than this.
Meng Chao made up his mind and strode over.
At that moment, the open-air arena filled with armored forces who were moving quickly.
They were reporting the newest situation to their gang leaders.
“Intruder!”
“Someone crept into Mutual Gold Coliseum through the ventilation pipe!”
Due to the severe air pollution, many people wore airtight gas masks to retain their fighting strength. Some even had compressed oxygen mixed with stimulants.
When Meng Chao mingled among them, he did not attract any attention.
He increased his speed and caught up to Red Brows Su Lun.
