Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! Chapter 540 - The Best Ending

Chapter 540: The Best Ending

Boom! BOOOM!

As if to verify Bai Shan’s words, an explosion roared in a distance.

The people in the darkness felt like they were in a broken submarine that was sinking thousands of meters into the ocean. They felt the shockwave pushing and crashing into them from all directions.

“Where did the explosion come from?” Wild Wolf’s expression changed, and he hissed, “Bai Shan, tell me, what is your next target?!”

“I don’t know. But even if I knew, it’d be too late now.” Bai Shan smiled and stared deeply at her old leader. “Wild Wolf, no one knows me better than you do. You’re a person who appears to be ruthless, extreme, and can make snap decisions, but deep in your heart, when you think about leading Leprosy Village to fight against the nine great mega corporations and the current order in Dragon City, you become hesitant and irresolute.

“But it makes sense. No matter who it is, those who want to fight against giants like the mega corporations and the peerless elites behind them must think carefully before doing anything.

“It’s fine, though. If you can’t make up your mind, I’ll help you.

“Right now, Dragon City is engaged in a pitched battle that will decide its fate. As long as the monsters and mega corporations are both badly injured, Dragon City will return to the chaotic era from decades ago, when order was torn down and no law could be seen.

“But things are different from decades ago. This time, the ugly deformees and the descendants of the zombie virus carriers already possess great power. We’re no longer pigs waiting for slaughter.

“This chaos is our best chance to rise to power. We might even be able to set up a brand new order that might be one hundred times fairer than what exists now.”

As she spoke, her voice started to go softer.

The third eye on her forehead had shined with a pearl-like light, but it turned into a red diamond throughout her speech. Then, wisps of gray smoke came out of it and it turned into a frozen stone.

“Bai Shan!” Wild Wolf’s eyes went wide, and he went forward to grab her shoulders.

Clang!

Another Spirit Snake Venom Blade fell on the ground, and it had Bai Shan’s cold blood.

When it touched the poison smeared all over the dagger, it turned black and looked really sticky.

Bai Shan’s speech was only meant to distract everyone. She had hid her right hand behind herself, then used a dagger to stab her waist, which destroyed her organs.

Her flesh was torn, and poison entered her bones. Pain traveled straight into her soul.

But her expression remained as calm as ever. Her eyelashes did not even flutter.

Hence, the people did not notice it immediately.

“Bai Shan…” Wild Wolf held her in his arms, and his facial muscles twisted for a long time, but he still could not find a suitable expression. He could only say, “Must you use this method to obtain this ending?”

“What else was I supposed to do?” Bai Shan’s face was stark pale, and her voice was wispy. “Are we supposed to continue enduring everything while waiting eagerly for humans to win the Monster War so that the mega corporations will share resources with us? Will those rich people really offer up their mansions, cars, and valuable treasures to the dirty and smelly deformed children in Leprosy Village?

“Two years ago, when we obtained full victory in the northern offense, our hopes were dashed once.

“At that time, when we learned that we won the northern offense, Leprosy Village cheered and danced, just like the rest of Dragon City.

“Everyone thought that the large amount of resources from the northern offense would definitely be used to modify the lair and Leprosy Village, change our living environment, treat our ailments and get rid of our suffering, as well as give our descendants the hope to cultivate and improve.

“But against our hopes, most of the resources harvested from Shattered Starlake to Raging Waves flowed into the pockets of the mega corporations. Before we even buried our last warrior’s corpse, the mega corporations had already divided more than 90% of the profit from the northern offense like they were cutting up a pie.

“Now that the mega corporations had gained more resources, they could develop their corporations in various fields and set up more bases and developing lands around Dragon City to get even more resources. It helped them become even stronger and larger.

“The rich people get ten times the number of cultivation resources now and keep on getting stronger. From people who could fight against one hundred people they turned into those who can fight against one thousand people. There are now even fewer people who can challenge their status.

“But what about us? Did the lives of the villagers change even in the slightest?

“Wild Wolf, help me out. My voice isn’t loud enough, so he might be unable to hear it clearly. Help me ask Meng Chao. Tell him to answer with a clean conscience. He just mentioned that all the suffering Leprosy Village faced from the harsh conditions of the war and the lack of resources.

“Then, when we really win the Monster War, will his close comrade, Lu Siya, the model superhuman promoted by the mega corporations, help us with everything she has and live the same lives as us?”

Wild Wolf did not ask.

Meng Chao heard her, but he did not answer the question.

And Bai Shan never had any hope that Meng Chao would answer her question.

“This is a good ending for me. I’m serious.” Bai Shan smiled. “From the moment I took this step, I’ve imagined all sorts of endings for myself.

“I’ve thought about being exposed like now and being condemned by everyone, as well as having my reputation destroyed.

“I’ve also thought about really siding with the enemy and asking the monsters to destroy Dragon City so that the mega corporations would face the apocalypse with Leprosy Village and treat us all fairly.

“Of course, the best ending would have been that the monsters and mega corporations would both be severely wounded. Dragon City’s order would then be destroyed once more, and while many of Leprosy Village’s people would be dead, we would have the advantage of our genes mutating swifter and an immunity toward most zombie viruses. Most of the elites in Wild Wolves would also survive, so we would rise to power during the chaos to become the new masters of Dragon City!

“Heh. All these endings were good, and I would accept all of them happily, except for one.”

“What is it?” Wild Wolf asked gravely.

“I could accept all endings but rotting to death like my mother while working for the production line of an illegal forgery.”

Bai Shan smiled.

She started turning black, as if she was burned by invisible flames.

Her head and arm fell limp on the ground, and she breathed her last. Her eyes became fixed on one spot at the same time.

Wild Wolf held her silently for a long time.

Chaotic footsteps and noise came from outside. Several Wild Wolves ran over in a panic.

“This is bad, Wild Wolf! The food can warehouse and clean water warehouse exploded simultaneously, and everything within a circular area of hundreds of meters is burning!”

Meng Chao brought A’Ji and Ms. Mulian to the surface with the rest of the Wild Wolves. Then, they saw two huge pillars of smoke rising to the sky hundreds of meters away from the Deification Capsule pharmacy that had exploded in the morning. They were both a few streets away.

Roaring flames licked at the smoke pillars, burning the dark clouds that covered the sky red.

There were three smoke pillars in total right now, and they were like the bars of a huge cage that shot down from above. Anyone who saw them felt panic.

Even though they were hundreds of meters away and had skysc.r.a.pers separating them, waves of heat still swept toward them.

The heatwaves brought with them dust, the powder from lots of low-quality crystals, and shards from monster materials. They were like red, green, yellow, gray, black, and purple snowflakes that danced in the air as they descended from the sky.

The villagers huddled up in the streets were shocked and terrified. They looked alarmed.

Ms. Mulian told Meng Chao that since the village had a bad environment, a severe lack of resources, and pretty bad pollution, it was a pure heavy industry village and could not produce its own food and clean, drinkable water.

All the food, drinkable water, gene medicine, high-calorie nutritional fluid, and other daily necessities had to be transported to them by the gangs.

This was why the villagers had to take up deals with harsh conditions and work all sorts of highly dangerous jobs day and night.

The villagers were poor, so the amount of food they stored in their houses could not even last them seven days.

Since it was not easy for them to store drinkable water, they had even less of it than food.

Most of the tactical resources were stored in two huge warehouses. This was a habit they had retained since the zombie crisis.

A shocking explosion had first happened in the morning.

Then, the “secret police” and “wanted criminals” started fighting fiercely in Leprosy Village, destroying dozens of buildings in the process.

Countless villagers lost their homes. Their food and water supply were also buried under the depths of the ruins.

Now, even their most important food, drinkable water, and tactical resource warehouses exploded and went up in flames. The flames were also still growing at rapid speeds.

This meant that Leprosy Village was driven to the point of having almost no water and food.

“Zhang Tie, what’s the situation?”

Even though the situation was becoming worse, Wild Wolf became calmer.

Or rather, from the moment Bai Shan died in his arms, something in his mind had plunged into complete darkness.

“It can’t get any worse!” Zhang Tie and a few Wild Wolves rushed over. The scorched Wild Wolves exchanged information and said, “The explosion seems to have happened within the two warehouses. The first explosion destroyed 80% of our storage, so many villagers gathered together to save the remaining 20%. At that time, the second explosion happened, causing countless casualties.

“Now, the flames of the explosion have not been extinguished, and morale among the villagers is at an all-time low. The news that Leprosy Village has no food and water and has been fully locked down has spread like wildfire. Everyone feels lost and doesn’t know what to do next. There are some people who are now filled with hatred toward the secret police from outside and believe that they brought all these disasters on us. They also believe that they would destroy all of Leprosy Village to capture the wanted criminals and monsters!

“Wild Wolf, make your decision. Right now, we know that it’s the monsters and not the secret police who caused all this, but no matter what, we have to survive!

“Leprosy Village’s destruction is right around the corner. We don’t have food, medicine, and water. The flames and smog are continuously wreaking havoc in the village. Before long, the entire village will be completely engulfed in flames. We have to run away!”
