Even though Meng Chao had trained his muscles and bones, Lei Zongchao would still make him cry and beg for mercy from time to time. “The difficulty of being a ‘temporary teaching a.s.sistant’ is too high. Master Lei, you’d be better off finding someone else!”

However, the contribution on points earned in Battle G.o.d Palace were too much and too tempting.

It should be noted that those qualified to follow the Battle G.o.d in their cultivation were all determined and talented people. Among them were many heroic citizens who were willing to risk their lives for Dragon City.

Meng Chao guided them through the Battle G.o.d’s profound and future martial arts. So, there was no need for them to rack their brains and put in so much effort. It was the same as how he had guided his high school cla.s.smates or the broken-star superhumans.

Usually, as long as he threw out a principle or described the developmental direction of martial arts in the future, it would provide insight and greatly enlighten experts like “Railway Gun” Long Feijun.

There were many profound martial arts mysteries that even Meng Chao himself only knew little about, but he did not have an explanation for that. However, he just needed to absorb the images from the memory fragments of his previous life and open his mind a little. That way, Long Feijun and all the others in Battle G.o.d Palace would be able to expand and improve with each word he uttered. Ultimately, Meng Chao was stunned by what he heard in his memories, but that did not delay him from harvesting a lot of contribution points.

In addition, Meng Chao also heard many famous names from the memory fragments of his previous life.

They were all iron-blooded warriors who had represented Dragon City in his previous life and fought all races in the war between worlds.

In his previous life, Meng Chao had only been a third-cla.s.s fighter. He could only look up to super first-cla.s.s fighters.

Now, many super first-cla.s.s fighters were mere sixteen- or seventeen-year-old teenagers, and some of them were still wet behind the ears.

It felt good to give pointers to these future fighters.

Their comprehension abilities were outstanding, and Meng Chao could harvest a large number of contribution points from them without any effort.

More importantly, he would listen to these peerless experts, who had swept across the world in his previous life, call him “Senior Brother Meng”. Besides, many people even looked at him with great admiration, which greatly satisfied his vanity.

Well, seeing that his contribution points and vanity were both being satisfied, even though Battle G.o.d Lei Zongchao’s special training program was tough, Meng Chao still decided to grit his teeth and persevere.

At worst, he could use the huge number of contribution points he earned during the day and throw them into the profound martial arts that Lei Zongchao taught him at night to “violently crack himself and replicate it”.

Alternatively, he could exchange them for healing arts to dissolve the medicinal effects of h.e.l.l’s Blood and soothe his exhausted as well as scarred body.

Just like that, Meng Chao did some calculations and found that he had already earned and consumed millions of contribution points in a little over a week.

Not only did the branch meridians, main meridians, and dragon meridians more than triple in size, but his spirit energy had also become incomparably dense. Seven or eight combat techniques and profound meanings that originated from the Battle G.o.d had been illuminated too. His mastery of Divine Nine Dragon Seals was almost approaching the peak of the Specialist Level. On top of that, his Celestial Tyrant Star Shattering Slash had also successfully broken through to Specialist Level.

Actually, he had deliberately controlled the pace of his leveling up. Plus, he wanted to further compress his spirit energy and solidify his foundation. If it were not for all that, Meng Chao felt that he would have broken through the five-star Spirit Gaze Realm in no time.

The progress of attracting investments for projects such as “monkey version weapons export” had also been very smooth.

That was because he patiently guided his brothers and sisters in Battle G.o.d Palace every day. Not only did he not hide anything, but he also threw out some brand-new martial arts concepts that originated from the future. One of them was flying immortals in the sky, and it gave huge inspiration to experts such as Long Feijun, the Railway Gun.

Everyone soon got along well with him.

One should know that the members of Battle G.o.d Palace, Broken Star Club, the Red Dragon Army, and Blue Home had always overlapped with each other.

It was entirely possible for a gra.s.sroots officer of the Red Dragon Army to join Broken Star Club and Blue Home concurrently. At the same time, he could also be inextricably linked to Battle G.o.d Lei Zongchao.

They represented the same interest cla.s.s—they were all middle- and low-level superhumans from humble families, free-range hunters, gra.s.sroots officers, young teachers, and small and medium-sized business owners.

In other words, they had a certain amount of strength and ambition, and they were eager to continue climbing up. However, the road ahead seemed to be firmly blocked by behemoths like the nine mega corporations, and they were unwilling to become the corporations’ va.s.sals. They were confused and resentful… It was such a group.

Since they were all in the same boat, everyone was naturally willing to join in the grand undertaking.

Although they couldn’t see how Meng Chao’s projects would shine and make a lot of money every day.

However, they were willing to bet on Meng Chao’s amazing foresight when he threw out his new martial arts concepts that sounded ridiculous and wonderful.

Just like that, Meng Chao turned a large number of people from Battle G.o.d Palace, including Long Feijun, the Railway Gun, into his partners and tied them to the same chariot of interest.

With the generosity of these brothers and sisters, the arrangement that he had prepared to charge out of the monster mountain range could be pushed forward in an orderly manner.

Good things came in pairs. On the day that he had basically finished dealing with the investment of each project, his application to explore and cultivate in the ancient ruins was also approved.

The ancient ruins research center’s Controllable Transmigration Technology Project Team had issued him an invitation, and Lei Zongchao, the Battle G.o.d, had personally endorsed it. In addition, Meng Chao was the youngest blood medal winner in Dragon City, so his loyalty and mental index were definitely not a problem. He had obtained quite a high level of authority and could almost move around freely in the ruins except for the “deep dive zone.”

The deputy team leader of the Controllable Transmigration Technology Project Team, Wu Haibo, personally met with Meng Chao to accompany him into the ancient ruins.

Wu Haibo was elegant and eloquent. He was the publicity director and fund-raiser of the controllable transmigration technology. Since Meng Chao was the president of Broken Star Club and the director of Blue Home, Wu Haibo naturally had many dealings with him.

In addition, the two of them had a mutual friend, the other director of Blue Home, and the famous machine master and regional defense expert of Dragon City, Zhao Feixuan. The three of them often thought about the future together and gave each other pointers. Their relationship could be considered quite good.

Moreover, Wu Haibo knew that Meng Chao was not only the president of Broken Star Club but also the director of the Blue Home. He had also inherited part of Saber Jin Wanhao’s legacy. Furthermore, he was the leader of Golden Teeth Saber and the person in charge of the Lair Reconstruction Committee. He had very good relations with organizations such as the Abnormal Beast Research Department and Battle G.o.d Palace. Hence, he could help the controllable transmigration project attract a large amount of investment at any moment.

Naturally, Wu Haibo was even more friendly toward him.

Despite that, when he boarded Supernatural Tower’s central elevator that led straight to the underground, Wu Haibo repeatedly warned Meng Chao that he needed to listen to his orders once he entered the ancient ruins. He could not be too careful.

“In the ancient ruins, breaking any seemingly complicated rules and regulations will cost you your blood or even life.”

Wu Haibo seriously said, “Plus, even if you abide by the rules 100%, your safety is not 100% guranteed. This is the ancient ruins!”

The elevator descended at a constant speed and carried them a hundred meters underground.

With a slight shake, the elevator doors slowly opened.

Perhaps it was due to the mysterious atmosphere that Lei Zongchao and Wu Haibo had created, but Meng Chao seemed to feel a bone-chilling cold.

Outside the elevator was a dark and deep tunnel.

There were black reliefs that extended all the way to the depths of the darkness on either side of the tunnel.

The reliefs depicted a group of soldiers who were wearing old Earth-era military uniforms. They were holding bayonets, steel guns, and grenades while roaring and pouncing on hordes of monsters.

The monsters…

Were ten times uglier than the ugliest monsters Meng Chao had ever seen.

Some of the monsters were like a mixture of jellyfish and octopuses, but their tentacles were covered in sharp thorns.

Some of the monsters had seven or eight heads that looked like sarcomas, yet it looked like new “sarcomas” were growing on their heads.

Other monsters had long hair all over their bodies. Their hair strands were crisscrossed like spider silk. Plus, they could attach themselves to the ceiling of buildings and the walls of caves, allowing them to hang upside down like spiders.

There were also some monsters whose bones had exploded and deformed. They were like the limbs of arthropods, extending several meters away from the body.

Each relief sculpture showed that the human warriors from Earth were tightly entangled with these strange monsters. They had used bayonets, bullets, iron fists, grenades, teeth, and their own lives to prevent the monsters from rushing out of the ground.

The more relief sculptures at the back, the more monsters there were. The more intense the battle was, the more determined the soldiers’ faces were.

Meanwhile, the last relief sculpture was filled with densely packed monsters. Only two Earth soldiers, who had run out of ammunition and food, were left at the center of the picture. They were covered in wounds.

They were leaning against a war machine that Meng Chao could not name. They were also holding something that looked like a remote control. The two soldiers were holding hands with smiles on their faces, whereas their eyes were extremely calm and joyful.

The monsters, on the other hand, appeared to have victory in their hands. Yet, unspeakable fear filled their distorted faces.

“These relief sculptures depict scenes of the ‘Zombie War.’”

Seeing that Meng Chao was not moving his eyes, Wu Haibo gave him introductory information. “Now, many people think that the Zombie War that happened in Dragon City, just as it transmigrated to the Other World, was just an event where ordinary citizens wielded lawnmowers to kill rotten, weak, slow-moving, and low-intelligence zombies.

“In fact, ordinary zombies can’t even break the defense of light armored vehicles, so how could they eliminate everyone in the regular army and cause the social order of Dragon City to collapse?

“These are the true zombies that resulted from ‘ancient germs infecting people’.

“As you can see, when Dragon City just transmigrated to Other World, due to the collision, fusion, and tearing of different s.p.a.ces, the ancient ruins that had been sealed for ten thousand years reappeared in the sky. Hence, the ancient germs and mysterious forces sealed within leaked out.

“At that time, many Earthlings who crossed over suddenly heard the ancient ruins’ summon and traveled into the depths of the ruins. They were consumed by the ancient bacteria and mysterious power before they became like that, neither human nor ghost.

“They were out-and-out ancient monsters. Their strength and intelligence were far from what ordinary zombies could compare to. Even the main battle tanks that were equipped with reactive armor would be torn into pieces by them in a moment.

“To firmly seal the ancient monsters in the depths of the ruins, the regular army back then put in almost all of their strength.

“It was an incomparably devastating and tragic fight, like an epic war.

“At that time, the regular army fought until the last soldier and even used a lot of quasi-nuclear weapons to eliminate most of the ancient monsters.

“The ancient bacteria that escaped to the ground by luck were also weakened and turned into a relatively harmless zombie virus.

“It was thanks to the regular army’s heroic sacrifice that Dragon City was able to gain a foothold in the Other World and dig out the first bucket of gold from the ancient ruins.

“At present, we have set up the relief sculptures here. On one hand, we want to remember the contributions of the martyrs. On the other, we also want to warn everyone who goes deep into the ancient ruins that this place contains a power that surpa.s.ses human civilization, and it holds dangers that we cannot imagine.”
