Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

1792 The Wild Banshee’s Creator

Lu Zhongqi’s voice and the flames in his eyes dimmed.

His entire body was light and weightless as if he was about to turn into a withered feather and fall into an endless abyss.

Meng Chao still needed him to answer an important question.

“Lu Zhongqi, tell me!”

Meng Chao grabbed Lu Zhongqi’s shoulders with great force and injected two streams of concentrated spirit energy into his body to stimulate his brain cells and keep him awake. “Did you plan the plot to frame Lu Siya?

“She’s your biological granddaughter. How could you bear to sacrifice her for the Blood Alliance?”

Meng Chao did not pose the question because of his personal relationship with Lu Siya.

It was related to the strategic planning of Dragon City in the future.

One should know that even though Lu Zhongqi and Yun Feidian had both fallen from grace in Dragon City, the bloody wave they had set off would not subside so easily.

After all, they were, to the public, the helmsmen of Sky Pillar Corporation and Thundercloud Technology. They were influential people!

Two of the nine mega corporations were facing the risk of falling apart at the same time. No one could predict how serious the consequences would be.

Once the sun rose tomorrow, news of the two individuals’ death would spread, and it would set off a chain reaction in the financial market. It would likely evolve into a stormy wave that would destroy Dragon City’s entire economic order.

“Two out of the nine mega corporations have already ‘fallen.’ Who’s next?”

This was a normal and inevitable question.

Even though Meng Chao was not a supporter of the nine mega corporations, he did not want to see the nine mega corporations fall one by one like dominoes in an avalanche.

Be it Superstar Company, the Azure Alliance, or the Red Dragon Army, none of them were ready to completely replace the nine mega corporations.

The rules of the game that the nine mega corporations had proposed were flawed, and they had accumulated a large number of bugs after decades of operation.

Yet, no matter how bad the rules of the game were, it was still better than not having any rules and returning to the chaotic era when the strong preyed on the weak.

Not to mention, Sky Pillar Corporation was one of the two super-mining conglomerates in Dragon City.

The mining and smelting of crystals were highly specialized fields. They were not things that a newly-born enterprise like Superstar Company, which did not have a deep foundation or enough experience, could take over easily.

Sky Pillar Corporation’s collapse would make Universe Corporation the only big company, and then they would have too much say in the plan to develop Picturesque Orchid Lake.

Shen Yuanbao was Meng Chao’s ally, but he was definitely not Meng Chao’s puppet.

There was absolutely no sense in destroying his home and sacrificing everything for Dragon City’s civilization.

In fact, even Meng Chao’s ally in Picturesque Orchid Lake, the corpse-eating dog that had evolved into the demonic Doomsday Wolf, had to be squinting his unfathomably long eyes. His gaze was like a surgical blade as he searched for a crack in Dragon City.

Meng Chao did not want any of the interest groups in Dragon City to become too powerful.

They could become powerful enough to bypass him and go to another part of the Other World to make a secret deal with “Jackal” Kanus or the other natives.

Therefore, it would be best if he could exert a certain degree of influence on Sky Pillar Corporation while dealing with Lu Zhongqi. This would ensure that the two mining giants, Sky Pillar and Universe, would keep each other in check according to his will while jointly pushing forward the grand plan of “developing Picturesque Orchid Lake.”

That was what Meng Chao wanted to do next.

After all, Shen Yuanbao had not recovered from his serious injuries, and there were no smart or capable people among his children. As long as his competitor, Sky Pillar Corporation, remained, Meng Chao believed that Shen Yuanbao would always need his support.

Lu Siya was the perfect solution Meng Chao could think of for Sky Pillar Corporation.

If Lu Siya could return to the Lu family after Lu Zhongqi’s death and even take over the company…

Then, Meng Chao would have the chance to control Dragon City’s most important crystal resource from its source.

Although Lu Siya had betrayed the Lu family more than half a year ago, it was probably a trick that the great families had been playing for thousands of years, placing bets separately and never putting all their eggs in one basket.

When Lu Zhongqi reached the point of death and his ambition was shattered, he had to have thought about the Lu family, Sky Pillar Corporation, and even the future of Dragon City’s civilization.

He should have been aware that because of him, the other members of the Lu family were no longer suitable to take charge of Sky Pillar Corporation.

To appease the anger of more than ten million ordinary citizens, outsiders would surely divide most of Sky Pillar Corporation’s shares and management rights even if it could still maintain its integrity on the surface.

Unless, Lu Siya was willing to take over the Lu family and Sky Pillar Corporation’s mess. She was Meng Chao’s close comrade, a core member of the Azure Alliance, and the perfect victim who had played an important role in this incident since she had been the Blood Alliance’s target.

Meng Chao believed that with Lu Zhongqi’s intelligence, he should be able to understand the deeper meaning behind his question.

Sure enough, Lu Zhongqi understood.

A smile appeared on his gaunt face, and he provided more information that Meng Chao did not understand.

“Indeed, I planned it.”

Lu Zhongqi smiled bitterly. “However, was it really a trap?”

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes and stared at Lu Zhongqi.

“Meng Chao, you know what I mean.”

Lu Zhongqi was barely breathing, but the information he revealed was like rolling thunder. “You know that there’s no need to inject any ‘monster cells’ or forge any evidence. My dear granddaughter, Lu Siya, has been a… cough, cough… a monster in human skin from the get-go!”

“…It was you!

“It was you!” A bolt of lightning flashed across Meng Chao’s mind. “You turned Lu Siya into a wild banshee. You allowed her to be tainted by the monster mastermind’s residual power. You turned her into the Tenth Supernatural Entity!

“Why? She’s your biological granddaughter. How can you have the heart to turn her into a chess piece, a tool that can be modified and abandoned at will for your twisted ideas?”

“Don’t misunderstand my intentions, Meng Chao.”

“Yes,” Lu Zhongqi said in a low voice, “although I manipulated Lu Siya’s mutation in secret, I never regarded my beloved granddaughter as a chess piece or a tool.

“On the contrary, at that time, I saw her as my hope, the hope of all mankind.

“Human beings, the evolutionary product of apes, have extremely powerful and proud souls, but they’re forever bound to their extremely weak and dull bodies of flesh and blood. What makes up the shell is nothing but piles of genetic sh*t.

“Even on Earth, we reached the limits of our bodies countless times after we entered the twenty-second century.

“After we transmigrated to an alien world with spirit energy and extraordinary powers, our d*mn bodies made us suffer even more.

“It’s true that we managed to defeat the monster civilization with great difficulty by relying on the combined power of Earth’s civilization and ancient technology.

“However, in comparison to our weak bodies, do the monsters’ evolved forms really not have any advantages at all?”
