Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! Chapter 858 - Irresistible Temptation

Chapter 858: Irresistible Temptation

They braved the wind and rain as they returned to the edge of the cliff. On the mound that was like a grave, they drank heartily.

With the Red Dragon River and the Raging Tiger River’s confluence, the turbulent waves lapped against the sh.o.r.e, and the majestic undulating scene was enjoyable with wine. It was more satisfying than any delicacy.

Meng Chao finally understood why this wine was called Fiery Blood Dragon Scale.

The reason was, after drinking it, he felt his blood turn into magma, and dragon scales grew on his skin. He felt like he had turned into a Crystalline Nine-headed Dragon and was about to wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace.

As they drank, they talked loudly.

They talked about Dragon City’s glorious years, about the martyrs and heroes who had fallen on the way forward, and about how prosperous and beautiful Dragon City would become in the future.

Of course, they also had to exchange their cultivation experience, talk about the fierce battles and adventures they had experienced, and how close they had come to death. It was thrilling.

Long Feijun was still drunk.

This time, he was so drunk that he could not even walk on his own.

While Meng Chao carried him on his back and walked into the dormitory, the iron-blooded tough man, who had a strong back, would sometimes cry like a child, laugh like a fool, or babble incoherently.

“Meng… Meng Chao, you must remember that Dragon City’s future can’t be decided by those greedy people. It should be up to us…”

“It would be great if you joined the Red Dragon Army. You are a natural born member of the Red Dragon Army!

“No, it’s better if you don’t join the Red Dragon Army. The Red Dragon Army is very simple. We only know how to fight and only want to fight. However, if Dragon City wants to gain a foothold in the cruel Other World, there are many other things to do besides fighting.”.

“Did you know that Battle G.o.d Lei Zongchao has actually always regretted helping the nine major gangs transform into the nine mega corporations and creating the Survival Committee.

“Back then, the Battle G.o.d was still too young and naïve. He only had ultimate martial strength, but he could not see through the hearts of all kinds of people. He thought that the nine major gangs would willingly hand over some of their power and become a joint supreme organization. It was a great thing that could rebuild a new order and restore peace, as well as unity, in Dragon City.

Little did he know that the nine major gangs would not hand over their power but burdens instead. Although a new order had been established, this so-called ‘new order’ was only beneficial to the nine major gangs and peerless experts. The Battle G.o.d had been used as a weapon!

“For so many years, the Battle G.o.d has been reflecting on himself. Sometimes, he would even think in frustration that if he had accepted “Domineering Saber” Jin Wanhao’s proposal and fought with the nine major gangs to establish Dragon City’s new order by himself, would its fate have been fairer and brighter than it was now?

“But that’s just a thought.

“After all, the Battle G.o.d is indifferent to fame and fortune in the face of a great enemy. He is a person who cares about the overall situation. It is impossible for him to play the game of ‘brothers against the wall’ and fight for power and benefits in front of a monster that is baring its fangs and brandis.h.i.+ng its claws.

“Now, although the time is ripe, the Battle G.o.d is already old. How much of the former ambition of a martyr is left?

“Fortunately, there is still Battle G.o.d Palace.

“The members of Battle G.o.d Palace are from all walks of life in Dragon City. Apart from the Red Dragon Army, there are also many powerful young teachers in Dragon City University and the alliance of the five universities who have received the Battle G.o.d’s personal teachings. There are also many young talents who came from humble families. Although small and medium-sized enterprises like yours are definitely not a match for the nine mega corporations, we have the advantage in numbers. After all, in the entire Dragon City, among the tens of millions of citizens, who has not learned the Battle G.o.d’s martial path? Who has not received Lei Zongchao’s favor?

“Battle G.o.d Palace should do something. Really, Meng Chao, in Dragon City’s future, the people of the Battle G.o.d Palace need to stand up and do what we have to do. Only then will we be worthy of the Battle G.o.d’s efforts!”

Long Feijun said a lot of things in a muddle-headed manner until Meng Chao told him that he had already made up his mind.

In a few days, when the rainy season was over, he would return to Battle G.o.d Palace and have a good chat with Lei Zongchao. He would also look for the most famous “little miracle doctor” in Dragon City, Su Mulian, to treat Lei Zongchao’s injuries.

Only then did Long Feijun feel satisfied and fall into a deep sleep.

The torrential rain continued, and water acc.u.mulated in the sinkhole. There were not many highlands that could remain dry all the time.

Most of the places were occupied by construction machinery. The dormitories of the personnel could only be inserted into the gaps, and they were arranged very tightly.

Therefore, Meng Chao and Long Feijun’s dormitories were not far from each other.

After much difficulty, Meng Chao finally managed to push this young military officer chief onto his bed. Meng Chao smelled the stench of alcohol all over his body, so he decided to go back to his room to take a shower and change into a set of nano combat suit that was specially used for training.

Looking at the time, it was midnight.

It was late at night, and the rain was pouring down. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. It was the perfect time to fight Sister Ya for 300 rounds!

The Fiery Blood Dragon Scale wine that he had just drunk turned into boundless strength and courage. Meng Chao stepped out of the dormitory with light steps.

In front of the dormitory building, a black off-road vehicle that looked like a ghost had silently parked there.

Its almost translucent paint made the SUV blend into the surrounding environment. If one did not carefully perceive it, it would be easy to overlook it.

On both sides of the widened and thickened car, there were two weapon platforms that could carry all kinds of weapons, from machine guns to rockets. There was also a revolving machine gun tower that could be lifted and lowered above the car. In addition to the wide explosion-proof tires and the folding crawling feet that were hidden under the cha.s.sis, it showed the ferocity and the expensive price of the SUV.

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes and activated his super vision, but his vision hit a wall on the car sh.e.l.l and could not penetrate it at all.

He even vaguely felt that his eyeb.a.l.l.s were stinging, as if he had suffered a mental backlash.

He realized that the materials used to cast the car sh.e.l.l must have been mixed with a large amount of high-level monster bone powder and the purest crystals.

Perhaps, the price of the SUV was even more exaggerated than the price of the entire piece of top-grade crystals.

At this moment, the window that was originally as dark as ink gradually became transparent like a chameleon, revealing the driver’s face.

No, it was not accurate to say “driver” because although he was sitting in the driver’s seat.

The steering wheel had folded and shrunk, and in its place was a big screen, on which intricate data and charts were jumping rapidly.

The person sitting in the driver’s seat was leaning comfortably against the luxurious leather seat, holding a gla.s.s of blood-red wine.

There was no need for him to do it himself. He could make use of the auto-driving technology and enjoy the pleasure of crossing mountains and mountains as fast as lightning.

Meng Chao secretly clicked his tongue.

Although Dragon City had relied on the ancient runes and the automatic technology of spirit machinery was already very advanced, auto-driving was not considered “black technology.”

However, in such bad weather, the driverless off-road vehicle had to brave the rain and thunder, pa.s.s through the forest, and rush into the sinkhole. It still displayed tremendous technical ability.

That aside, when he recognized who the other party was, he did not find it strange at all.

Lu Fanghui was the chief executive officer of Sky Pillar Minerals, the vice president of Dragon City Mine Explorer a.s.sociation, the senior consultant of the Crystal Inst.i.tute, the visiting professor of Dragon City University, as well as one of the top senior prospectors and crystal specialists in Dragon City.

In the near future, he was very likely to become the head of the Lu family, one of the nine great cultivation families in Dragon City.

As Lu Zhongqi and other Deity Realm experts were seriously injured in the decisive battle with the main brain of the monster, this “near future” seemed to be closer.

Of course, for Meng Chao, the other party had an even more important ident.i.ty.

Lu Siya’s father.

The reading light in the SUV lit up slightly, allowing Meng Chao to see clearly that Lu Fanghui was the only one in the car.

Lu Fanghui raised the blood-colored wine and gestured to Meng Chao.

Meng Chao hesitated for a moment, then quickly walked through the heavy rain and boarded the SUV from the other side.

As soon as he sat down, he was shocked again.

As a Reaper, his sharp senses made him realize that the softness and tenacity of the leather seats were extraordinary.

The familiar scent that crawled into the tip of his nose unlocked the data in the Memory Bank.

The leather seats in the SUV were all made of the skin of the Apocalyptic Beast, Demonic Mountain!

Demonic Mountain was a giant reptilian monster that was more than a hundred meters long.

In order to cover hundreds of thousands of tons of flesh and blood, its skin was extremely tough and covered with sh.e.l.ls and scales. It was not suitable to be tanned into leather seats.

However, near its neck and limbs, in order to rotate flexibly, a few pieces of soft leather with incredible ductility, flexibility, and defensive power grew.

Such a top-grade material was simply a priceless treasure.

If it was refined into a close-fitting soft armor, it would definitely attract countless superhumans.

Who would have thought that it would fall into Lu Fanghui’s hands and be refined into a leather seat for an off-road vehicle.

Other than slightly improving the stability and comfort of climbing over mountains and ridges, it didn’t seem to be able to bring out its greatest effect.

Such a reckless waste of natural resources caused Meng Chao to frown slightly.

“Uncle Lu, are you here to look for Sister Ya?” He asked somewhat cautiously.

The superhumans who were on duty in the depths of the Hidden Mist Domain stayed in the highlands that couldn’t be flooded. Lu Siya’s residence wasn’t far from here.

“No, I came here specifically to look for you.”

The controller of Sky Pillar Minerals gave Meng Chao an unexpected answer.

Lu Fanghui poured a gla.s.s of wine and handed it over.

The red amber-like wine was rippling with the peculiar fragrance of Apocalyptic Beasts.

Compared with the Fiery Blood Dragon Scale wine brewed by the Red Dragon Army, it was even more irresistible.

“You’re looking for me?”

Meng Chao was slightly dazed. He looked at the wine in Lu Fanghui’s hand and did not take it easily.

“That’s right. The Deity Realm Conference has ended. All the forces have reached a preliminary agreement on how to develop the Hidden Mist Domain and share the legacy of the monster civilization, including the colonization after we break out of Monster Mountain Range in the near future.”

Lu Fanghui placed the wine within Meng Chao’s reach and said casually, “Thank you.” “Thanks to you, Siya was saved from the illusion created by the superbeast. You also successfully completed the mission to explore the Hidden Mist Domain, which greatly helped the military operations in the future.

“The military merits are enough for Sky Pillar to take the initiative in the joint development of the Hidden Mist Domain.

“Now, Sky Pillar has obtained the exclusive rights to 20% of the crystal veins in the Hidden Mist Domain and 30% of the crystal veins.

“I was finally able to do something big, which was why I couldn’t wait to rush here in the rain and carry out the preparatory work.

“Also, you mentioned to me earlier that you hoped that Superstar Resource could sign a strategic cooperation agreement with Sky Pillar and become our supplier, providing us with the giant Sandworms for the mines.

“There were many constraints on this matter at that time, so I didn’t dare to agree rashly.

“But you’re Siya’s best friend and a hero of Dragon City with outstanding military achievements. How could I not take your matter to heart?

“After this period of operation and unblocking, the conditions have finally matured. I think we can talk about cooperation.”
