Chapter 1689: Added Chaos
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fortunately, these radical young military officers had yet to become a mainstay in the Red Dragon Army.
Ever since the big explosion of the Red Creek Project’s crystal warehouse, Dragon City had been shrouded in a mysterious and unpredictable fog. However, the Red Dragon Army had maintained a high degree of restraint and not shown an obvious bias in the game between the nine mega corporations and the Azure Alliance.
Nevertheless, Meng Chao believed that when it came time to take a stand, the Red Dragon Army would definitely side with the Azure Alliance and the thousands of Dragon City’s ordinary citizens.
Therefore, if Lu Siya, who had the support of the majority, made some modest requests to the Red Dragon Army as the Azure Alliance’s spokesperson, the Red Dragon Army could not find any reason to refuse.
As such, Meng Chao faced a huge problem.
!!
To be fair, if Meng Chao had to choose between the nine mega corporations and the Red Dragon Army, he would definitely choose the latter.
From the memory fragments of his previous life, Dragon City, which was led by the nine mega corporations, had an extremely tragic ending, which led Meng Chao to believe that Dragon City needed a new group of “stewards” and “traders” to avoid the apocalypse.
Besides, his experience of traveling to Picturesque Orchid Lake over the past year had also taught him something. He realized how dark, ignorant, b.l.o.o.d.y, backward, and weak a civilization that was purely ruled by “powerhouses” was.
No matter how the nine mega corporations continued to expand unbridled, sooner or later, those superhumans from wealthy families would become like the five families of Picturesque Orchid Lake, relying on violence and lies to rule the entire civilization. They were so-called “n.o.bles” who enslaved everyone.
Meanwhile, the thousands of Dragon City citizens would become the rat people of Picturesque Orchid Lake, who would be enslaved and slaughtered by others.
Such a civilization had no motivation to evolve at all. It could only degenerate under the influence of “the strong preying on the weak” and “winner takes all.” Eventually, they would be reduced to primitive people who ate raw meat and drank blood.
Meng Chao did not think that he was worried over nothing.
The appearance of the New Blood Alliance had already sounded a warning bell for a terrifying future.
The extremists in the nine cultivation families, led by the CEO of Thundercloud Technology and the Deity Realm expert, Yun Feidian, had forgotten or deliberately abandoned their ident.i.ty as Earthlings. They no longer regarded themselves as the same species as their compatriots who had not awakened their extraordinary powers. They no longer even regarded themselves as humans, but some higher-level existence that surpa.s.sed humans.
In order to mold the Dragon City civilization into their desired image, they were willing to sacrifice anyone’s interest.
For example, right now, they had single-handedly directed those in Universe Corporation to kill each other.
They were prepared to use it as a reason to secretly capture Lu Siya.
Then, they would beat Lu Siya into a confession and turn her into a “monster puppet.”
That way, they would deal a heavy blow to the Azure Alliance’s image.
At the same time, they would use the reason of “capturing monster remnants and purifying the monster virus” to rightfully strengthen their control over Dragon City.
If it was revealed that the Red Dragon Army had reached some agreements with Lu Siya at this juncture, or that they were secretly collaborating on some projects…
Then, the Blood Alliance members led by Yun Feidian would have very good reason to suspect that a considerable number of monster puppets had sneaked into the Red Dragon Army.
Once that happened, even if the Red Dragon Army could still maintain its independence and reject the nine mega corporations’ interference, a ma.s.sive and long-lasting internal investigation and self-purification operation would be set up to maintain safety.
Such an internal investigation would definitely interrupt the Red Dragon Army’s ongoing comprehensive renovation and upgrade.
It would also cause the Red Dragon Army to lose its once-in-a-lifetime window of opportunity to become an expeditionary force.
Once the combined forces of the nine mega corporations completed their attack on Picturesque Orchid Lake within that period of time, everything would return to the road of no return that led to the apocalypse in his previous life.
Meng Chao could not allow such a tragedy to happen before his eyes again.
However, the most critical problem now was not Yun Feidian being one of the Blood Alliance members hiding in the nine mega corporations.
The most critical problem was that Lu Siya was really a monster!
“I can’t let Yun Feidian capture Lu Siya.
“Otherwise, Lu Siya will definitely reveal her true form under his torture.
“When the time comes, the Blood Alliance will seize the opportunity and uncover the monster puppets and even the tenth Supernatural Ent.i.ty who are hiding in Dragon City. Their insane scheme will suddenly turn into a far-sighted plan, and the evil organizations will be cleansed in an instant. The extremists in the nine mega corporations will become even more arrogant and uncontrollable.
“But I can’t let Lu Siya wander around in public like she is now.
“Lu Siya, who has turned into a wild banshee, is a hundred times more difficult to deal with than before. She has become the spokesperson of almost all the ordinary citizens of Dragon City without even using her monstrous power. G.o.d knows what position she’ll eventually be in if this continues!
“Although she hasn’t done anything to harm the interests of Dragon City’s citizens, she must be planning a world-shaking conspiracy. The later this conspiracy erupts, the more destructive it will be. I have to nip this problem in the bud before her conspiracy is fully launched!
“There’s the nine mega corporations, Azure Alliance, Red Dragon Army, Blood Alliance, and Lu Siya, who has inherited most of the monster mastermind’s power… Dragon City is really chaotic at present!”
Meng Chao felt a headache coming on, and it washed over his cerebral cortex like a tidal wave.
At that moment, he received news from Shen Yuanbao.
Shen Yuanbiao, Shen Yuhe, Shen Yufeng, Shen Chenglie, and the other members of the Shen family were already fighting fiercely at the warehouse in the south of the city.
At the same time, at the end of Meng Chao’s fixed line of sight, Lu Siya and several members of the Azure Alliance jumped into their respective vehicles, started the crystal engines, and drove away from the base.
“Where are they going?”
Meng Chao’s heart immediately jumped.
The members of the Blood Alliance, led by Yun Feidian, were sharpening their knives, preparing to secretly capture Lu Siya.
At this juncture, leaving their base was not a smart choice.
As expected, Meng Chao quickly sensed the magnetic reaction in the air, and it instantly became intense.
It was as if dozens of wireless communication channels were connected at the same time, transmitting information at a high speed.
Many more sneaky observers crawled out of their hiding corners and followed behind Lu Siya’s fleet silently.
Meng Chao had long discovered these guys.
They were all his “peers,” and they had been secretly monitoring Lu Siya for the past few days.
