Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 843
Chapter 843: Adding Fuel to the Fire
Before Meng Chao could squeeze into the crowd, he heard shouts and curses from both sides.
Although the superhumans who had just participated in the chaotic battle were firmly suppressed by their companions who could still maintain their rationality for the time being…
No one could shut their mouths.
Among them, the shrill quacking of the superhuman from Universe Corporation was especially unpleasant to hear.
“Universe Corporation…”
Meng Chao frowned deeply.
The two major mining groups in Dragon City, Sky Pillar and Universe…
Among them, Sky Pillar Corporation started with advanced mining technology and dozens of strategic crystal veins.
The founder of the group, Lu Zhongqi, was the founder of the crystal ores collection system and smelting in Dragon City.
Atlas group had a long history and a deep heritage. Relatively, it paid more attention to building the corporate image.
The Lu family, one of the nine noble families, was also known for its strict style.
Even the famous slogan, “The superhuman is the saber of human civilization. The blood of the strong should flow for the weak”, was the first to be shouted out by Sky Pillar Corporation’s Public Relations Department.
Later, Sky Pillar Corporation also wanted to package the third generation of the Lu family, “Queen Bee” Lu Siya, as the “most beautiful superhuman.”
Regardless of the slogan and packaging, how much of it was true…
At least, it showed that Sky Pillar Corporation was still relatively fastidious about rules and eating manners.
Compared with Sky Pillar Corporation, Universe Corporation was completely different.
In a word, it was in line with the stereotype of the “mining nouveau riche” in the minds of the general public.
During Dragon City’s continuous expansion, Universe Corporation had been licking its wounds, taking the unconventional path, and pulling up all the levers.
It had also recruited a large number of desperadoes, completely ignoring the safety of production and construction in order to grow rapidly.
In order to challenge Sky Pillar Corporation’s position as the leader of the industry, it behaved more unscrupulously.
The Shen family, which was in charge of Universe Corporation, was also the most high-profile and ostentatious one among the nine major families.
Many people in the circle had a lot of complaints. They thought that the sons of the Shen family only lacked the word “arrogant” written on their foreheads.
A few years ago, when Meng Chao and Lu Siya were exploring the depths of Raging Waves Mountain Range and the Red Radiance Jade vein, they almost lost their lives in the hands of a prospecting team from Universe Corporation.
At that time, the third generation son of the Shen family, Shen Yulong, who was in charge of this prospecting team, had left a very deep impression on Meng Chao. He was arrogant and domineering, and his style of treating human lives as if they were nothing.
It was really difficult for Meng Chao to have a good impression of the Shen family.
His only good friend in the Shen family, Shen Yulong, was said to have joined Dragon City’s secret police because he could not stand the atmosphere in the family. He became a judge and no longer meddled in his family’s affairs.
The man in front of him was a typical descendant of the Shen family.
As soon as he opened his mouth, his sharp voice, which sounded like a steel wire scraping glass, could be heard almost throughout the cafeteria.
“Back then, if it wasn’t for my grandfather and those heroes who risked their lives and fought desperately to resolve the zombie crisis, overthrew the blood union, and killed so many monsters, Dragon City would have been finished long ago!”
This superhuman from the Shen family shouted arrogantly at Ma Hong and the others, “Your parents and father are long dead. How could it be today? You ungrateful bastards, come to us, the descendants of our saviors, to flaunt your power?”
“Cut the crap!”
Ma Hong was a man of his word too. He sneered when he heard what the other guy said. “Right now, the outside world is exposing the scandals of the nine super corporations. Who knows how many dirty deeds you did when you were digging for the first bucket of gold? “So many resources, including the legacy of the Blood Alliance, have been taken by you. What’s so great about killing a few monsters?
“If all the resources had been concentrated in our hands, we would have been much stronger than you.
“Why didn’t you say that twenty years ago? Why didn’t you say that ten years ago? Or even three to five years ago?”
The superhuman from the Shen family, who had a hoarse voice, was also a sharp-tongued person. He scoffed. “Twenty years ago, ten years ago, or even three to five years ago, the claws and teeth of the monsters were still sharp. The arrogance of the monsters was still rampant. The Apocalyptic Beasts still appeared around Dragon City from time to time and even flew above Dragon City.
“At that time, why did you guys only know how to hide behind a Deity Realm warrior like my grandfather and tremble? Why did you still need us, the mega corporations, to take charge of the overall situation? Why didn’t you think of digging up our old debts and investigating our original sin? Why didn’t you insist on the ‘fair distribution of resources?’
“Now, the Apocalyptic Beasts have been killed by a Deity Realm expert like my grandfather, and the monster civilization has been wiped out by our mega corporation. Even the main brain of the monster civilization has been completely destroyed by a hero like my grandfather at an extremely tragic price. Now that Dragon City’s survival crisis has completely passed and everything has calmed down, you shrimp soldiers and crab generals have jumped out and attacked us after the fact. You even burned the bridge after crossing the river, trying to settle our old scores. What do you mean by ‘original sin’ and ‘fairness?'”
“No one wants to settle old scores, but you guys have to understand one thing—the monster civilization could not have been destroyed by Deity Realm powerhouses and mega corporations alone!”
Ma Hong’s eyes were bright as he resolutely said, “The Red Dragon Army, the small and medium-sized enterprises, all the broken-star superhumans and Earth Realm powerhouses, as well as the tens of millions of citizens of Dragon City, all of them have worked tirelessly for decades to destroy the monster civilization, lived frugally for decades, and sacrificed their lives for decades!
“Who hasn’t contributed? Who hasn’t sacrificed? When it comes to the dead, the victims of the Red Dragon Army are ten times, or even a hundred times, more than that of the nine mega corporations! If we are going to forge a grand medal for the victory of the war, it should belong to everyone! Why should you claim to be the greatest contributor to the victory of the monster civilization and take the resources that should belong to all the people of Dragon City into your own pockets?”
“What a joke. If the more people die, the greater the contribution. Why don’t all of us just stick our necks out and let the monster kill us?!”
The superhuman from the Shen family scoffed. “If it weren’t for the Deity Realm warriors like my grandfather who fought the Apocalyptic Beasts in the surging beast horde head-on, no matter how many people there are in the Red Dragon Army, it would be useless. They would still be a motley crew that would have been crushed by the Apocalyptic Beasts.
“Don’t forget that this is the Other World with abundant spirit energy and mysterious power. The army in the Other World and the army on Earth are two completely different things!
“Perhaps, on Earth, the army is the best force to defend the civilization.
“But in the Other World, the army is the vassal of the unparalleled experts. That is an irrefutable fact!
“The war can only be won by unparalleled experts like my grandfather. Dragon City can only be protected by unparalleled experts like my grandfather. Of course, we are qualified to take the largest share of the resources.
“So, put away your inexplicable pride from Earth. Earth has already been destroyed. Who are you still putting on airs for?”
As soon as these words left his mouth, Meng Chao knew that it was going to be bad.
Sure enough, the 36,000 pores all over Ma Hong’s body seemed to be spewing out blood qi visible to the naked eye, as if a scarlet volcano had erupted.
He gnashed his teeth and enunciated each word. “Who are you calling a motley crew?”
“Isn’t the answer obvious?”
The superhuman from the Shen family completely ignored his fury and said with a ingenuous smile, “Among so many Deity Realm warriors in the battle with the monster mastermind, how many of them were from the nine mega corporations, and how many of them were from the Red Dragon Army?
“To put it bluntly, other than shooting cannons from far away and cleaning up the battlefield, what else can the Red Dragon Army do?”
As soon as he said that, the air in the cafeteria seemed to have turned into solidified lava.
Meng Chao was about to charge through the crowd at all costs when he heard a loud bang.
It was as if a ground-penetrating bomb had exploded in the middle of the crowd.
The shockwave blew a few spectators, who were not in a high enough cultivation state, seven to eight meters away and landed in the depths of the crowd.
The instigator, the sharp-tongued superhuman from the Shen family, turned into a kite with a broken string that was splashed with red paint. He spat out blood as he flew twenty to thirty meters away and slammed heavily against the wall, creating a bloody human figure!
“Oh, no!”
Meng Chao felt his scalp go numb.
No one knew Ma Hong’s strength better than him.
Although the Ma Hong from three years ago was only a broken-star superhuman with low combat strength, he was still in the first batch of testers and supporters of the Ultimate Style.
Regardless of whether it was Meng Chao, Gu Jianbo, or the powerhouses who had invested in the Ultimate Style, they had all poured a lot of effort and resources into Ma Hong.
This included the collaboration between the Ultimate Style and the Red Dragon Army, which wanted to promote this brand-new martial arts concept in the military on a large scale. Ma Hong had also been appointed as the instructor of the training camp.
After three years of hard training, Ma Hong was no longer the same as before.
The superhuman from the Shen family treated him as an ordinary basic officer of the Red Dragon Army. Not only did he ask for trouble, but he also courted death.
The problem was that the Shen family and Universe Corporation were rich and powerful, and they had many experts. Just in this cafeteria alone, they had a large number of companions who were above the level.
Moreover, because of Heaven Pharmaceuticals’ scandal, the nine super companies were facing a common crisis. They were growing closer and closer to each other.
At such a delicate moment, even the extraordinaires of the traditional competitor, Sky Pillar Corporation, subconsciously stood on Universe Corporation’s side.
In fact, there were several extraordinaires from Sky Pillar Corporation who had fought side by side with the Universe Corporation just now. They were bleeding and bruised.
Not to mention that Ma Hong’s attack this time was too heavy.
When the extraordinary humans from the Shen family crashed into the wall, everyone heard the cracking sound of bones breaking. They saw him lying on the ground in a mess, with sticky liquid flowing out of his nose and ears. He was convulsing unconsciously.
The faces of many extraordinary humans from the nine super corporations changed.
Sensing their sharp hostility, the extraordinaires from the Red Dragon Army and small and medium-sized corporations also crazily activated the spiritual magnetic force field, creating powerful killing techniques in their bodies along the spiritual veins.
It was like two armies pulling the powerful bows and crossbows to their limits in an extremely narrow space.
It was impossible not to go off the rails.
