Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 224: Idiot

Chapter 224: Idiot

He could not think too much about it. A powerful gust of wind came at his head.

Meng Chao felt as if electricity had just run through every single strand of his hair, and all of them trembled. He fell forward in a straight line and used his hands as support to kick back with his legs.

His ambusher screamed in pain. His fibula was shattered by Meng Chao’s kick, and he instantly knelt on the ground.

When Meng Chao turned his head around to look, he found that it was an unfamiliar mine explorer. Universe Corporation’s emblem was sewn on his sleeve.

Based on the intensity of the spirit flames surrounding him, he should be a two-star superhuman.

However, mine explorers were supporters. Most of them were like Meng Chao and trained their branch meridians. However, when it came to the circulation of their spirit energy, their spirit energy circulated in slowly, and they did not pay attention to delivering instantaneous bursts of energy.

They could change the structure of a rock or turn stones into gravel within ten minutes, but they could not have their spirit energy burst out of them in a fraction of a second to crush their enemy’s skull.

It was just like how large and powerful herbivorous animals were usually not the opponent of fierce but small carnivorous animals who had all sorts of offensive methods.

Hence, even though the miner’s cultivation realm was higher, Meng Chao pounced on him without hesitation.

The mine explorer had fought to the point where he was in a frenzy, and his mental strength index had fallen below 50%. He was about to suffer a mental breakdown.

The pain of his fibula breaking caused his mind to clear a little.

And when Meng Chao punched his face and nearly rammed his nasal bone into his brain, it completely destroyed his ferocity.

He wanted to continue struggling, but a saber appeared horizontally over his neck, and killing intent pierced his blood vessels, muscles, trachea, and spine.

“Don’t move, or you’ll die!”

Meng Chao pinned the Universe Corporation mine explorer against the ground and lay down as well so the subsurface plasma would hide their figures.

He drew closer to the person’s ear and whispered, “Tell me, did Hu Peng go to your side? Did you make a wall collapse in an attempt to kill us?”

The mine explorer’s eyes went wide, and he looked confused. He could not understand what Meng Chao meant at all.

“Tell me, or I’ll kill you!” Meng Chao gritted his teeth in exasperation. “Did you take the initiative to attack us? What did Shen Yulong tell you?”

The mine explorer let out hissing sounds from his throat and waved his hands to show that he could not breathe because of Meng Chao, much less speak.

“Alright, I’m going to let go of you a little, but you have to answer me honestly. This is very important to you and I. In fact, it’s very important to everyone here. We can’t continue fighting against each other, understand?!”

Meng Chao moved Bloody Flame away from the man. He also moved his knee away from that person’s back.

The mine explorer sat on his knees and supported himself with his elbows. He sucked in a deep breath.

Then, he shouted hysterically. “You idiot!”

Meng Chao was exasperated, and he quickly used his chains to lock down the person’s throat.

But a gorgeous figure who looked as fierce as a tiger had already shot out from the subsurface plasma ahead of them. A gust of wind arrived in front of Meng Chao and pierced his eyes so badly that he could not open them.

Bang!

Their weapons clashed. Sparks flew against their faces, and they could feel pain, as if there were needles piercing into them.

Meng Chao took three steps back and knelt down on one knee. Both of his chain sabers were like venomous snakes lurking in bushes. The chains trembled soundlessly.

The other person’s momentum did not reduce in the slightest. It just increased. The saber slashes let out the faint sounds of tiger roars. His moustache was stained with blood, and he chuckled darkly.

Meng Chao’s heart sank.

It was a person he did not want to face the most from Universe Corporation’s mine exploration team.

Qin Hu, the vice captain of Frenzied Saber, the boss of Prosperous Resource Recovery Company, a veteran hunter whom he had once humiliated fiercely, and an elite at the peak of Earth Realm!

“Bastard, the world is really small, eh? You probably never even dreamed that such a day would arrive, did you?” Qin Hu smiled fiercely.

Meng Chao braced himself and said, “Mr.... Mr. Hu, we can deal with the grudge between us someday later. Let’s not fight right now. We have to make things clear!”

Qin Hu was slightly stunned. He did not expect that Meng Chao would make himself so humble.

He looked around and understood what he meant. His smile grew even more mocking. “What’s wrong? You found out that Lin Chuan is being held back by my captain and can’t save you now? You’re scared because you know that you’re about to die, so you’re going to kneel down and beg for your life, is it?

“Heh, it’s too late. Even if you beg for your life now, it’s useless!”

“It’s never too late to beg for my life!” Meng Chao immediately made his decision and said readily, “Mr. Hu, everything that happened in the past was my fault. I admired you a lot since I was very young. I’ve listened to tales of your heroic deeds from my father over the years, and I’m really sorry about the misunderstanding between us.

“I’ve always been thinking late at night about how to apologize to you sincerely, but since I respect your great power, I never dared to visit you.

“Compared to a hero who fights for his life and Dragon City in the wild, I’m just a child, and if God forgives the sins of children, you’re an adult, and you should be generous. Could you just pretend that I farted in your face and that’s it? Can we sit down and drink some tea while we talk to understand each other?!”

Qin Hu was dumbfounded.

His moustache trembled, and he said hesitantly, “Boy, what are you?”

Suddenly, he seemed to have come to some sort of understanding. He shouted and swung his saber.

“No way!” Meng Chao wanted to cry. “I already begged for my life, and you’re still attacking me?”

“Duh, with your personality, it’s impossible for you to beg for your life. But you’re suddenly putting up such a humble stance. You definitely have some sort of nefarious plot cooking up in your head and some scheme boiling in your heart. You want to harm me, right?”

Qin Hu swung his saber repeatedly. He looked smug and angry as he said, “Last time, you pretended to be a harmless sheep and scammed us of the Golden Spirit’s etherealized neurosphere. You turned me into a laughing stock within my circle for a few months. You’re infamous for being full of schemes. This time, I won’t fall for it!”

Meng Chao really wanted to faint. “Mr. Hu, aren’t you just smart?!”

“Of course I have to be.” Qin Hu felt really smug. “Everyone in the field knows that even though I look buff, I like using my head the most!”

“Alright, I’ll ask you to use your brilliant mind now. Please stop fighting for a moment or fight slower. You can listen to me while you fight, okay?!”

Meng Chao was forced backward as Qin Hu continued cutting at him. He felt that his arms were so numb that he lost feeling in them. He had to use his eyes to be certain that they were still attached to his shoulders.

But he refused to give up. He wanted to talk to Qin Hu and get a sense of the entire thing.

Qin Hu narrowed his eyes and slowed down a little. He said in disdain, “You’re afraid of dying, boy? You’re not fit to be a superhuman at all.”

“I’m not afraid of death, but if I die, I should die meaningfully, not like this, where I become a corpse in the dark underground without even knowing what’s going on.” Meng Chao gasped for breath. “Mr. Hu, this is what happened...”

Halfway through his speech, Qin Hu’s attack speed suddenly increased. His saber, which weighed dozens of kilograms, suddenly became a metal block that weighed thousands of kilograms, and came charging at his head

Meng Chao was caught off guard. He was sent flying by Qin Hu and fell heavily on the ground.

Fortunately, he practiced the Ultimate Style, and he could control his muscle fibers and even his hair at will.

He did not need to use his limbs. With the movements of his back muscles, he could slither forward half a meter like a python.

Boom!

Qin Hu’s saber crashed heavily between Meng Chao’s legs, and the blade sank deep into the ground. Shattered stones flew and hit Meng Chao’s leg. It stung with burning pain.

Meng Chao’s eyes went wide, and he broke out in cold sweat.

If he had not dodged in time, that slash would have cut him in half from between his legs.

“Qin Hu, you idiot!” Meng Chao shouted angrily.

“If I listen to another word you say, I’d be the real idiot.” Qin Hu licked his blood-stained lips and smiled savagely. “Quit your yammering. I hate cowards like you who are afraid of dying and will kneel down to beg for their lives. You were a normal person in the past, so I couldn’t be bothered to deal with you. Now, we’re all superhumans, so why bother with all the talk? Let’s settle the grudge between us in the most satisfying way !”

His arms trembled.

The heavy saber in the ground caused the earth to shatter as it trembled rapidly, and countless shattered stones shot out from it.

The shattered stones were controlled by Qin Hu’s vitality magnetic field, and they shot at Meng Chao’s face like bullets.

Meng Chao could only keep retreating.

But the anger in his heart continued burning.

As he faced Qin Hu’s blockheaded idiocy, he lost the confidence to convince him, because he refused to listen to anything.

And as he faced the merciless chained attacks from this elite at the peak of Earth Realm, he did not even have any room to speak.

He could only gather all his strength and swing his chain sabers like two tornadoes that devoured all the shattered stones. He reduced the stones to powder and flung them back at Qin Hu in hopes to confuse him so the chain sabers could move to the back of his head and stab him.

But Qin Hu was a veteran hunter. He would not leave such an opening.

Even with his eyes shut, he could locate Meng Chao. Each of his slashes looked as if they could drain the air and even distort space. They were so powerful that they made Meng Chao retreat repeatedly. He did not have the room to control his chain sabers accurately.

Meng Chao groaned.

It was only at this moment that he learned of the true strength of someone at the peak of Earth Realm.

Thinking about using the Ultimate Style to flip him over was just like thinking about using a shovel to fight against a tiger. Theoretically, it was possible, but the difference between theory and reality was as great as the distance between heaven and earth.

Every slash Qin Hu delivered did not just hit his saber, but also sent vicious blows to his arms, chest, heart, and vitality life field as well.

If it were not for the long-lasting endurance provided to his branch meridians by the Ultimate Style so his recovery speed and fighting endurance were ten times higher than that of a normal one-star superhuman, Qin Hu would have thrown him off his feet with just five slashes, and he would be a fish up for slaughter.

Even now, aside from enduring it with great difficulty and passively getting hit, Meng Chao could do nothing else.

Suddenly, he felt a coolness behind him, and he could no longer find any place to stand.

He had been pushed to the edge of the cliff by Qin Hu. If he stepped back, he would fall into the abyss, right into an even darker world underground.

With his great skills, Qin Hu saw Meng Chao swaying.

His eyes lit up, and he lifted his saber high up.

‘Oh no.’ Meng Chao thought and dodged.

But against his expectations, Qin Hu’s slash was just a feint. The veteran hunter had long since gathered a large amount of spirit energy to his right leg and now stomped viciously on the ground. Two cracks appeared, and they traveled straight toward Meng Chao’s feet.

The edge of the cliff where Meng Chao stood instantly crumbled.

He lost his balance, and the ground under his feet disappeared.

It was at that moment that Qin Hu roared loudly. He swung his saber horizontally and swept at Meng Chao while ten meters away from the cliff.

At that critical moment, Meng Chao finally flung the chains of his Bloody Flame, which he had not used all this while.

Qin Hu swung his arm to cut it up.

The chain was chosen meticulously by Lin Chuan, so it was a good item made of superbeast materials and super alloy. It was not so easily cut into two.

Meng Chao’s fingers trembled rapidly, as if he was plucking zither strings.

The chain moved like a snake and jumped up agilely. With the strength Qin Hu used to cut it, it turned a corner, and from an amazing angle, it wrapped itself around his ankle.

Sizzzzllleee!

Offensive runic symbols were carved into the chain. They activated because of spirit energy, and fire and electrical arcs burned Qin Hu’s ankle until it was a mess.

The chain from Blood Flame wrapped itself around Qin Hu’s ankle several times and tangled it up in a very ingenious fashion. No one could easily break out of it. The blade stabbed itself into Qin Hu’s calf as well, and the dozens of runic symbols on it shone as well. Wisps of light crawled into Qin Hu’s calf, causing him to continuously lose blood.

Qin Hu did not expect that Meng Chao’s weapon would be so bizarre, even though he was just at Spirit Tattoo Realm. He was caught off guard and screamed in pain.

Meng Chao did not have the ability to use maglev to fly. So, he could only yank his chain saber in the hopes of using Qin Hu’s strength to return to the cliff.

He did not expect that the edge of the cliff would still be collapsing, and when he yanked at Qin Hu, the man lost his balance. He fell off the cliff as well.

Both of them fell into the endless darkness.
