1798 The Prologue of a New Era
“As you can see, this is the Blood Alliance’s legacy.”
Lu Zhongqi smiled. “Behind the links and addresses, there may be secrets that are as important as the Perfect Carbon-based Creature Research Project, which can broaden mankind’s scope, raise humanity upper limit, and even redefine humanity.
“Perhaps it’s a clue to an ancient divine weapon that can help us conquer the entire Other World but also destroy Dragon City, or…
“It’s key evidence that a powerful man in Dragon City is corrupt and has no regard for human lives.
!!
“Perhaps, it’s the fuse for a major scandal buried when the Supernatural Tower was first built.
“I had originally planned to find a suitable opportunity to hand these things over to Siya, hoping that one day, she would be able to lead the Blood Alliance back.
“Now that I think about it, perhaps it’s more appropriate to hand it over to you?”
“I told you…
“I’ll never let the Blood Alliance make a comeback!” Meng Chao said coldly.
“Of course, you’ll decide the fate of the Blood Alliance and even of Dragon City.”
While Lu Zhongqi spoke, he shook his hands. As the earth rose and fell like waves, the words that he had just “carved out” all disappeared.
The words had only appeared for half a minute before disappearing into the darkness.
However, with Meng Chao’s great memory as a Deity Realm warrior, they were still deeply imprinted in his brain.
“I believe that you’ve memorized the links, keys, and addresses. It’s impossible for you to forget them. Right now, you are the only person in the world who knows how to retrieve all that the Blood Alliance has left behind.”
Lu Zhongqi continued, “You can choose to share all the links, keys, and addresses with the Supernatural Tower and Survival Committee. You can disclose all our secrets and set off a storm. You can completely destroy the current order in Dragon City and cause the nine mega corporations to fall apart.
“Under such circ.u.mstances, I believe that the pretentious guys of the Survival Committee will not be indifferent to the Blood Alliance’s decade-long secret research and development.
“Once they’ve shed all pretenses of cordiality, they’ll certainly find a way to continue the experiments that are inhumane but help humans surpa.s.s their limits.
“To prevent this from happening, you can also keep these secrets to yourself, or only reveal them to a very small number of people in Superstar Company and the Azure Alliance.
“In that case, the Blood Alliance’s legacy will become a secret weapon for you and the superhumans with humble backgrounds around you. In the event that the prestige of the nine mega corporations is greatly damaged, you’ll likely use the Blood Alliance’s legacy to ascend to the throne of supreme power and direct Dragon City’s progress according to your will.
“Of course, you can also search for all the information in advance and separate them into different categories. You can keep part of them and hand over part of them… as long as you have a way to convince everyone that what you hand over is the Blood Alliance’s full legacy.
“Hehe, no matter what, I have strong confidence in the Blood Alliance’s ideals. I believe that the Blood Alliance’s path is the only way to save Dragon City. If you want to save Dragon City as much as I do, it won’t matter how much you disagree with me today. There will be a day when you will inherit this legacy and become a new hope for the Blood Alliance and Dragon City.
I’ll be soaked in blood in the deepest part of h.e.l.l, quietly waiting for that day to arrive and to hear news of our final victory…”
Then, the last light in Lu Zhongqi’s eyes faded as if a dense fog had devoured it.
He slowly lowered his head and sat down on the rock that he had been studying for his entire life.
When the last wisp of life force escaped his body through his pores…
The old man, who had once put his life on the line to protect Dragon City and also almost destroyed it, resembled a rough, broken, and clumsy statue.
Meng Chao sat in front of this “statue” for a long time, quietly thinking about Lu Zhongqi’s last words.
In a sense, Lu Zhongqi was right.
Back when Meng Chao first awakened from his nightmare, he panicked and hoped that he could be a dancing b.u.t.terfly. He wanted to stir up a storm and change the course of history with just a flap of his wings.
Now, however, he realized that history’s inertia was incredibly strong. The surging torrent was not something a small b.u.t.terfly could change.
Moreover, it was impossible for anyone in Dragon City to treat him as an insignificant b.u.t.terfly.
“Finally, the end of the apocalyptic nightmare I know has come.
“From this moment on, Dragon City’s future is destined to change beyond recognition.
“I can’t continue to stand behind the scenes and act as a silent driving force, pushing Dragon City forward while quietly reaping a large amount of benefits.
“No matter what, I have to take the helm. While leading Dragon City forward, I have to bear countless responsibilities and face a large number of attacks… I even have to carry out attacks repeatedly and make the choice to step over humanity’s bottom line or not.
“Fortunately, there’s one thing that hasn’t changed.
“I can’t do any worse than in the nightmare, can I?”
Meng Chao heaved a sigh of relief. He walked between Yun Feidian’s grave and Lu Zhongqi’s corpse toward the end of the darkness, in the direction of the path that had just been cleared by the reinforcements. He slowly walked up to the flickering light.
…
Many core members of the Blood Alliance had been captured and executed, especially the two leaders, Yun Feidian and Lu Zhongqi, who had fallen deep underground one after another.
The chaos caused by the Blood Alliance seemed to be coming to an end.
However, the aftermath of the riots was intensifying, likely evolving into a “spiritual storm.”
After decades, the Blood Alliance’s ideology had reappeared in the public’s eye.
“Earth has been destroyed by a total nuclear war, and Earth’s civilization has been annihilated!
“Now that Earth has been destroyed, the laws, morals, and social order on Earth have lost their original authority and value. They have even been proven to be inappropriate and wrong by the all-out nuclear war that destroyed everything!
“To survive in a new world and create a civilization that’s more brilliant than the earth era, we must abandon the old morals, laws, and social systems and establish a new system based on spirit energy and experts.
“To conquer the Other World, or even if it’s just to survive in the Other World where experts stand in great numbers and danger lurks everywhere, the Dragon City civilization will have to usher in one long and cruel war after another. In order to win these wars, we must concentrate extremely scarce resources, especially spirit energy resources, on a very small number of talented experts. Furthermore, we need to resort to any means necessary, including unscrupulous ones, that surpa.s.s Earth’s old morals, old laws, and old orders to allow these experts to continue to evolve. They will then evolve into new humans who can perfectly adapt to the Other World’s environment.
“Creating such new human beings and a brand-new civilization of mankind has been the Blood Alliance’s unwavering goal for the past half century!”
