Chapter 489: The Other World War That Was About to Come

Instead of having all ten fingers hurt, it would be better to have one finger severed. This was a simple logic, and Meng Chao believed that the monster civilization understood it.

Over the two years, Dragon City had been expanding rapidly, so its supply line had become longer and their soldiers spread out, since the number of tactical strongholds they needed to defend had increased ten times.

But they also occupied a lot of blessed lands filled with spirit energy. They had chased quite a lot of monsters out of their habitats and nests, so a few main monster species had taken a huge blow.

Meng Chao believed that the monster civilization did not have the strength to attack Dragon City from the four cardinal directions.

If the monster civilization really had such terrifying strength, there would have been no need for them to wait until now. During the Noble Descent Hotel ambush, they could have just gathered together a monster horde that filled the earth and leveled Dragon City to the ground.

The monster civilization could only have three targets at best.

The other seemingly fierce monster hordes were all feints.

It was all so that they could lock down the human soldiers and peak fighting power in place, so the monster civilization could break their main targets.

Nie Chenglong agreed with Meng Chao’s thoughts.

But it was meaningless. Even if they knew that 90% of the enemy’s attacks were feints, since the main army of the monster civilization and the Apocalyptic Beasts were hidden in the fog, they could not tell just which offense was a feint and which was the real deal.

They needed to clash fists and launch a full-scale war against each other before everything would be revealed.

However, Dragon City faced a fatal problem when it came to mobilizing its high-end fighting power.

Most of those people—especially from the five-star Heaven Realm superhumans to those ranked above Deity Realm—were bound to the mega corporations.

Sky Pillar, Universe, Soaring Dragon, Thundercloud... These mega corporations controlled Dragon City and provided endless cultivation resources to their powerful fighters to ensure that they could maintain and upgrade their cultivation realms. They also created good cultivation, research, and business environments.

The creators of the mega corporations were all Deity Realm superhumans. Most of the shares of the companies were held by the powerful, so the powerful and the companies were two sides of the same coin.

The mega corporations had invested an astronomical amount of resources into the new industrial bases and crystal mining sites.

Hence, the powerful fighters who belonged to these industries and had shares in the company naturally had to defend their territory. After all, their money, lives, and hopes of continuing to advance up the cultivation realms were all in there.

And the relationship between the mega corporations had always been delicate. They worked together, but they were also competitors.

Take Sky Pillar Corporation and Universe Corporation as an example.

They were both giants in the mining, crystal, and metal smelting industries, which had been fighting overtly and covertly for decades.

Two years ago, two mine exploration teams from the corporations had even killed each other under Raging Waves. Even the third generation member of Universe Corporation, Shen Yulong, had almost been killed by Lu Siya, a third generation member of Sky Pillar Corporation.

This matter had been completely wiped out by the massive explosion from the Red Radiance Jade mine, but those within the field knew what happened.

However, they had no proof and there was also the interference from the crystals and bewitchment from the abnormal beast, so everything could be explained and the corporations decided not to dig deep into it.

In that sort of situation, it was very difficult to convince a Deity Realm superhuman from Sky Pillar Corporation to ignore the enemies right in front of them and go off to provide reinforcements for Universe Corporation’s defense line.

It was the same with the remaining seven mega corporations.

The peerless fighters were definitely not petty, selfish people.

If someone could prove that the enemy in front of them was just a feint and the comrades to their sides were the real targets, no matter what sort of grudges they had in the past when they fought over resources, they would set aside their differences and face the enemy together.

The problem was, how could they prove that they were facing feints and the other party was the real target of the monster civilization?

One slight error in judgment could lead to an astronomical amount of resources going down the drain. The corporate empires built for decades would shatter, and the elites would no longer be able to get a sufficient amount of resources to maintain their cultivation realms. No one could bear such a consequence.

It has to be known that the Deity Realm superhumans were no longer the heroes of the past who could fight alone with nothing to worry about.

All of them had families behind them, were worth billions, taught countless disciples under their names, owned large companies, and held countless people’s lives and money with their absolute might!

All sorts of reasons made the Deity Realm superhumans unable to fight together.

The research department knew the monster civilization’s scheme, but they could only let everyone be stuck in their territories like nails.

The attackers could choose the time, location, and method of offense however they liked, but the defenders could only be hit and counter whenever they were attacked.

This was a chronic illness that could not be avoided in any war since ancient times, and it was in no way new.

Dragon City was the only one to blame for expanding in an extreme manner for two years.

But Meng Chao knew that they had no other choice.

In his previous life, due to their tragic defeat at the northern offense, they were forced to choose another path. They shrank their defense line and defended like cowards while taking approximately three years to rest and recuperate. That was the only way they could regain their ability to colonize the world around them.

But during those three years, the monster civilization expanded like crazy and occupied most of the blessed lands that were filled with spirit energy and used them effectively. Their number of soldiers increased ten times, and Dragon City’s civilization suffered a terrible blow during the last stage of the Monster War. Many of their top fighters died, and even Battle God Lei Zongchao, whom the Dragon Citizens regarded as a legend, was lost in the final battle.

Reality showed that hiding like cowards and going about the war steadily would only lead to death.

Besides, no one knew better than Meng Chao that if Dragon City’s civilization wanted to rule over the Other World, they would not just face the monster civilization, but a myriad of other races!

Based on his previous life’s experience, when Earthlings and the monsters were fighting like crazy in the fog shrouded Monster Mountain Range, the war of epic proportions that was worthy of being written into war poems was brewing in the vast land of the Other World.

The humans of the Other World, elves, dwarves, giants, vampires, dragons, demons, orcs, the extraordinary beings who stood above the heavens and lurked in the depths of the abyss had formed two camps that were diametrically opposed to each other and would not stop fighting until the other side died. Conflict was about to erupt at any moment, and one single spark was all that was needed for the destructive flames to sweep through all of the Other World.

This would be an unprecedented, destructive war.

The strength, intensity, scale, and brutality surpassed all of the world wars on Earth.

In Meng Chao’s previous life, Dragon City’s civilization was dragged down by the monster civilization for too long, and they were already too late when they entered the Other World’s war.

Besides, they were heavily injured and “bleeding”. Dragon City’s civilization could not control its own fate and could only end up as the chess piece for the Other World’s extraordinary beings.

They could also not figure out the relationship between the races of the Other World. They lacked crucial information about the war, so they made a lot of wrong choices.

In the end, as the foot soldiers of the losing side, they were inevitably the first to be cast aside.

Even so, during their most glorious moments, Dragon Citizens fought fiercely as representatives of Earth’s civilization and gained themselves the nickname of the Extraordinary Disaster.

Meng Chao believed that as long as they managed to win the Monster War two or three years ahead of time, Dragon City’s civilization would still be at full health when its people rushed out of Monster Mountain Range, and their top fighters, including Battle God Lei Zongchao, would remain alive.

Then, with the information he had from his previous life’s memories regarding the direction of the war, the conflict between the Other World races, their weaknesses, hidden powerful fighters, treasures, and other things, he could help Dragon City’s civilization form alliances and handle the war smoothly.

Then, from chess pieces, they could become the players. From there, they could reap the most benefits from the war that destroyed the world. They could overtake the extraordinary beings and stand above them, thus be in control of their own destiny as well as the entire Other World’s destiny!

After all, he only started to grow up during the Other World’s war in his previous life.

Compared to quietly harvesting monsters and enduring the hardships of life as a normal citizen, Meng Chao preferred the exciting times of being a special agent of the Ghost Tribe and wandering among the races of the Other World.

His memories of the Other World’s war were much clearer and more useful compared to the memory fragments of the Monster War.

But the basis of all this was that Dragon City had to gather a lot of resources within a short amount of time and end the Monster War.

Then, they would be able to make it in time before the war broke out and get the chance to steal from others during their times of crisis.

Hence, if Meng Chao were to set the plans for the expansion of Dragon City, he would make them expand even more extremely and frenziedly.

There was no perfect strategy that ensured no losses. Not on Earth, and not in the Other World.

If they wanted to occupy the largest territory within the shortest amount of time, get lots of resources, and complete primitive accumulation as soon as possible, they had to face the problem of their defense lines becoming longer, their forces being spread out thinly, and no fronts being able to care for each other.

Dragon Citizens had no other choice. They had to brace themselves and get through it.

On one side was heaven, and on the other side was hell.

Once they lived through this wave of offense by the monster civilization, the mining sites, plantations, and heavy industrial bases would be able to produce even greater resources. After being refined by the flames of war, more Dragon Citizens would also awaken to supernatural abilities and become superhumans who could control their own destinies.

The advantages of Dragon City’s civilization would become greater, like a rolling snowball, and the monster civilization, who had suffered a major setback right when it was born, would not be as strong as it was in his previous life.

Meng Chao was confident that the monster civilization would not have the chance to launch another savage attack like this.

If they could not make it... they would face the same end as in his previous life.

There were Deity Realm superhumans guarding the frontlines at the perimeter, so there was no need to worry about them for the time being.

Meng Chao clenched his fists. He was determined to do whatever it took to complete his mission and stop Vortex’s scheme in the lair.

Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong and the other veteran hunters understood the unprecedented gravity of the situation; it was not the time to complain or negotiate. Compared to Golden Tooth Lair, the tactical resources around Dragon City were in greater need of being defended by their top fighters.

“Understood, we’ll find the mastermind,” Zhou Chong said firmly. “We will not allow our enemies to have the chance to cause trouble in the heart of Dragon City at such a crucial time!”

“Please, Captain Zhou, Meng Chao, everyone.” Nie Chenglong paused for a while. “Remember, the mission has changed. This is no longer a capture mission. It’s a real battle. I will take full responsibility for all of your actions.”
