Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! Chapter 600 - The Leader of the Monster Civilization

Chapter 600: The Leader of the Monster Civilization

Meng Chao found Su Lun’s ideals to be rather familiar.

He believed Gao Ye had said something similar after he turned into a Giant Sandworm too.

“Are you going to say that we must turn into monsters to be able to survive in the Other World?” he asked with a frown.

“Isn’t that the case?” Su Lun asked and started rambling. “Let me just use a proverb from Earth. The environment shapes a person. So how could the rulers of different planets be the same?

“The prerequisite for human civilization to be able to gain glory and prosperity on Earth was there was no energy known as spirit energy. Compared to the Other World, materials there were more stable, and the speed of evolution was also one thousand times slower. The sizes of creatures of the same race weren’t much different, and even the strongest ent.i.ties like whales, elephants, and even dinosaurs weren’t so strong that they could change or destroy nature itself.

“In that sort of environment, humans called themselves the lords of all races. They created language to communicate with each other and learned how to use tools. Slowly, they climbed to the top of the food chain and developed brilliant civilizations. They also decided on morals, laws, and other things that could help them keep harmony in their society. This is something that happened naturally.

“But it’s not the case in the Other World.

“The Other World has spirit energy, and materials here are not stable. Evolution speed is one thousand times faster than on Earth, too. Even if you don’t consider monsters and the intelligent life forms of the Other World and just talk about the humans who transmigrated from Earth, you’ll find that there is a huge difference between the strongest Deity Realm superhuman and the weakest orphan in the lair in terms of strength, wealth, and power.

“Could the dragons soaring in the sky regard the earthworms in the mud as their comrades and fight with them?

“Impossible!

“Admit it. From the moment humans discovered spirit energy after they transmigrated to the Other World and began cultivating, a divide silently but swiftly formed among humans. Right now, even though we all wear human skin, we are a different people. No matter how much we hold onto the morals, laws, and societal relationships from Earth like wishful thinkers to tie the strongest and the weakest together and use slogans like the strong bleeding for the weak to make this bond sound pretty, it can’t hide the fragility and deformity of our civilization.

“Let’s take a simple example. Look at the battle in the lair just now.

“During that battle, Vortex brought a group of former Reaper Squad members and a bunch of misfits who call themselves robbers to wreak havoc in the lair. All the gangs and citizens were badly battered because of it.

“But is the Vortex really that strong? I don’t think so.

“Aside from having the ability to change its shape, it’s probably no stronger than an Apocalyptic Beast.

“The problem is, our civilization is old and frail.

“It is built on the foundation of having a large population, and the morals from Earth require for us to never give up on anyone. We must provide a sufficient amount of resources for even the weakest among us.

“The result is that our enemies can easily find a weakness and hit it, like the buildings with countless humans living in them. They have an even denser population than a hornet’s nest.

“And once such buildings are destroyed, many people are injured and buried under debris. The others then must do everything they can to save them, which requires a lot of resources and takes away the best chance to fight back.

“Look at the smoke outside. The lair is in chaos. Today, Vortex alone was able to create such devastation.

“What if an intelligent life form more terrifying than a monster showed up tomorrow and used the same method to attack Dragon City? Tell me, do you think you’d get lucky again and stop it?”

Meng Chao pondered over this in silence.

He often asked himself this question after he returned to the past.

At the end of the day, when Earthlings learned how to use fire, grind stones, and release their first beast-like howls at the moon a few ten thousand years ago on Earth, they did not have any mortal enemies on Earth.

Human civilization had an absolute advantage on the planet—it managed to develop without any mortal enemies.

All the talk about morals, laws, and rules were special rights of those at the top of the food chain.

But how long could the morals, laws, and order from Earth remain in use when they were surrounded by powerful enemies? Their living environment in the Other World was much harsher, and the rapid speed of evolution continued increasing the gap between humans.

And were the morals, laws, and order that kept Earth in peace a good or bad tool for them to preserve the fire of civilization?

Meng Chao had thought about this for hundreds of days, but never found his answer.

But clearly, Su Lun believed that he had found the answer and reached the truth.

“Wake up, Meng Chao. Even though the people have been saying that we must spread the fires of Earth’s civilization to every corner of the Other World, the truth is, from the moment Dragon City transmigrated here, Earth’s civilization has already been dissolved and lost,” Su Lun said.

“We can’t go back. We’ll never be able to go back to Earth, and we’ll never become Earthlings. We belong to the Other World, and we’re a completely different form of humans. This is a brutal truth that all of us must face!

“The morals, laws, and order from Earth and even our Earthling form are just shackles and obstacles to the brand new humans we’ve become. We must crush them and toss the shards behind us. That’s the only way for us to walk forward to a brand new future with our heads held high!

“Of course, I know very well that no matter how old and rotten the laws and morals are, it’ll be very difficult to crush them. It’s impossible for us to do it by our own hands.

“That’s why we need to bring in the power of the monster civilization to cleanse our civilization and get rid of all the things that are not fit for us to survive in the Other World. I believe that once humans and monsters become one, our civilization will be reborn!” Su Lun said excitedly. He was even foaming at the mouth.

Like a crab blowing bubbles.

When Meng Chao saw that Su Lun had sunk into his circular logic and was completely immersed in it, he gave up on debating with him. He considered his words for a while and said, “What you said sounds familiar. I have a friend named Gao Ye, who said something similar. Do you know him?”

Meng Chao wanted to know whether the humans enticed by abnormal beasts contacted each other or had some form of organization.

“I don’t know. Perhaps I do.” Su Lun did not hide it and answered generously. “I do have some friends who share my ideals. We believe that the rotten form of Earth’s civilization isn’t suitable for us to survive and develop in the Other World. And right now, the nine great mega corporations have monopolized and taken control of Dragon City. There’s so much darkness and unfairness in the city that it’s impossible for us to solve this chronic disease with our own strength.

“We must bring in the monster civilization to cleanse our civilization. That’s the only way for Dragon City to have a future.

“But I don’t know my friends’ names and real ident.i.ties, because we know very well that we carry the foul name of monster puppets. We are bound to be misunderstood and regarded with hostility.

“Since the Survival Committee and Supernatural Tower are controlled by the nine great mega corporations, they will do everything they can to oppress us.

“For safety’s sake, we only use single wire communication. If we had to gather together, it was in an anonymous chat room on the dark web.

“Everyone speaks their mind freely on the dark web and exchanges their thoughts to continuously perfect our ideals. Of course, we also provide help to each other within our capabilities while ensuring secrecy. We exchange information, resources, and help others complete their tasks. But no matter how many times we contact each other, we hold true to one basic rule—before the time is right, we must never try to figure out the others’ ident.i.ties.”

This did sound like the standard operation of a secret organization.

Meng Chao did not doubt that Su Lun was lying to him.

But he still pondered over his words and asked, “Speaking of which, you’re smart. You must have been able to figure out your anonymous friends’ ident.i.ties based on their words, the resources they need, the missions they carry out, and other things, right?”

“There’s too many of them, and they’re in all sorts of fields. We’re made up of all sorts of people,” Su Lun said. “I once asked a friend to help me get rid of a high-ranking gang member who was trying to stop my reforms. He did it cleanly. That high-ranking gang member’s cause of death was heart failure due to his old injuries acting up. No one saw anything wrong with it.

“I believe that he must be one of the best a.s.sa.s.sins in the city.

“I have another friend who provided a lot of help to me when I was handling the online coliseum. You should know that it has never been easy to get a license for online entertainment and a payment method. Such stuff has been monopolized by all the broadcasting platforms under the mega corporations. The gangs are also looked down upon by the outside world, so it’s practically impossible for us to get approval.

“I didn’t have a lot of hope for it in the beginning and was just grumbling about it, but in a few days, we got through all the complicated approval processes without a hitch.

“Up to this date, I still don’t know which friend helped me.

“But they must be someone important in the Survival Committee and the Supernatural Tower. They must be in charge of an important department and have a lot of power.”

Meng Chao felt his skin crawl.

He did not expect that the monster civilization would have infiltrated so deep into human civilization.

Red Brows Su Lun alone had already caused a ruckus in the lair.

If there were dozens or even a hundred people like him, Dragon City was going to face its harshest challenge yet during the second half of the Monster War.

“There are actually so many people willing to help the enemies?” Meng Chao mumbled in disbelief. “If you defected to the enemy’s side to take revenge and become an outstanding person, why would someone who is in charge of an important department in the Survival Committee betray their own people and join the monster civilization?”

“I think it’s because the difference between human civilization and the monster civilization isn’t as great as you think. Besides, we’re not helping the enemies at all.”

A mysterious and unfathomable smile appeared on Su Lun’s face again. Meng Chao really wanted to punch him when he saw it. Then, Su Lun calmly tossed a bomb at him. “There’s something I keep forgetting to tell you. Based on what the Vortex told me, the leader of the monster civilization was once a human!”
