Chapter 1648: Citizens of the Other World
Yun Feidian’s words made all the Deity Realm warriors look at each other in dismay and shudder.
“This is not just a problem of the employees, but also a problem of the market.”
Lei Tianming spoke in a deep voice. “Most of our products are consumed by ordinary people. If they’re replaced by some orcs and runic machinery that don’t have money on hand, who should we sell our products to?”
“In any case, Dragon City has tens of millions of people. We can only rely on the huge consumer market at the moment. Once the market shrinks or collapses, it will be of no benefit to anyone.”
“That is the biggest difference between me and you seniors.”
Yun Feidian casually said, “Seniors, you are all from Earth. Even if you’ve worked your whole life in the Other World, you still can’t avoid your deep-rooted ways of thinking. You can only see the land in front of you and the ‘fellow Earthlings’ in the land.
“I’m different from you. I was born in the Other World. To me, Earth is just an unattainable, even illusory name. I’m a standard citizen of the Other World. What I see is far from the Dragon City before me, but the entire Other World. The market is a hundred times larger than Dragon City!”
His words once again triggered a strong reaction from the Deity Realm warriors.
Regardless of whether these Deity Realm warriors of the older generation were like Battle God Lei Zongchao, who had dedicated everything he had to the citizens of Dragon City and would only die after doing his best, or...
They were like Shen Yuanbao, who was ambitious and wanted to create a grand undertaking for his family that would last for thousands of years...
At least, they did not have any doubts about the fact that they were from Earth and they were all Earthlings.
Dragon City had crossed over a long time ago, hence a large number of second and third generations, who were born and raised in a different world, had approached the center of the stage one after another. They were standing in the spotlight and making their voices heard.
However, in the past, there had never been a peerless fighter like today’s Yun Feidian in front of all the elders, saying, “I am an alien, not an Earthling.”
Such an ear-piercing declaration made many of the Deity Realm powerhouses frown.
Yun Feidian’s parents were among them.
Be that as it may, they had also been seriously injured during the battle with the monster mastermind. They almost quit their daily management duties in Thundercloud Technology and handed over authority to their most outstanding offspring.
Right then, the two of them closed their eyes slightly and did not say a word. It seemed that they had already reached a tacit understanding with Yun Feidian.
“Yun Feidian, explain!”
Lei Tianming glared at him. “What do you mean by that?”
“It means that we shouldn’t be dragged down by the ordinary people just because ‘we’re all from Earth’ anymore. We should have gotten rid of these burdens long ago and marched into the other parts of the Other World!”
Yun Feidian added, “After the mist dispersed, Dragon City’s Meteorological and Geographical Research Institute conducted an in-depth study of the area around the city.
“Based on their observation of the stars and detailed analysis of the animals and plants, they found that Dragon City should be located in the south of a continent in the Other World. The Other World’s size, mass, and climate are not much different from Earth’s.
“Behind us, the low-level carbon-based intelligent creatures known as the orcs have developed some sort of civilization by relying on the Raging Tiger River.
“Judging from the interrogation of the captive orcs, the orcs are not small in number. They can build dozens of large cities that cover the sky and the sun. Their total population is at least the same as that of Dragon City; there are at least ten million of them.
“But that is not my main point.
“My focus is farther north of the Raging Tiger River’s basin, which is also north of the Tropic of Cancer in the Other World.
“Judging from the birth and development of the major civilizations on Earth, the tropics are only suitable for new growth, not for the development of a brilliant and powerful civilization.
“Only in the temperate zone to the north of the Tropic of Cancer, or even in the frigid zone farther north, can intelligent carbon-based life gradually give birth to extraordinary wisdom. They can then create complicated tools in the process of fighting against heaven and earth, thereby creating a great civilization with a large population.
“Quite a few orc captives have been in the deep boundless Other World, to the north of the Raging Tiger River’s basin. That place is full of fear and hatred, but they call it a place of light. It seems that there is another civilization there that has been suppressing the orcs for thousands of years.
“The total population of the Other World in these two regions alone is likely to be in the hundreds of millions. There are certainly other continents and other civilizations that we have not detected yet. It’s not a problem for the total population to exceed one billion.
“May I ask, with the consumption market of one billion people, do we really need to care about Dragon City’s consumption power, which only comes to tens of millions?”
“It’s not the same.”
A Deity Realm warrior like Lei Tianming had certainly done in-depth research on the geographical and ethnic distribution of the Other World. He slowly shook his head and said, “Of course, there are many carbon-based intelligent creatures living in the Other World, but they don’t make up our foundation. As the saying goes, ‘distant water cannot quench immediate thirst.’ If we don’t solve Dragon City’s problem first, how can we conquer and develop the entire Other World?”
“The problem in Dragon City can’t be solved by simply compromising and retreating. As for our foundation, is it really the citizens of Dragon City, our so-called ‘compatriots?’”
Yun Feidian scoffed. “No, our foundation is the mother lode of crystals that we control. It is our unrivaled strength. It is the elite troops under our command, the runic machines and biochemical beasts that are equipped with automatic attack systems!
“The nine mega corporations are not ruling Dragon City because of the quality of our products or because we are good at pleasing our consumers.
“I wonder if you’ve been living a good life for too long and have forgotten how you made your fortune in the past, Senior.”
Bang!
Crash!
Lei Tianming punched the table in front of him, blowing it into pieces.
Dazzling electric arcs surrounded his body, and his eyes were like searchlights that were about to burn out. “Yun Feidian, watch how you speak and act!”
“That’s it. That’s the aura of a Deity Realm warrior!”
Yun Feidian, on the other hand, was full of joy. “I can guarantee that if you appeared in front of everyone like that, at least half of the noise outside would subside, Senior Lei!”
“Your idea is very dangerous.”
Lei Tianming narrowed his eyes as if he was getting a good look at Yun Feidian for the first time. “Are you saying that we can use our invincible force to threaten the ordinary people?”
“I’m saying that we have the final solution even in the worst-case scenario.”
Yun Feidian said, “Even if the ordinary people are gone, as long as we, the high-level superhumans, unite together, we can conquer the entire Other World!”
