Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 491: Bait and Trap

Chapter 491: Bait and Trap

Meng Chao returned to the other side of the roof and looked at the full view of Leprosy Village.

It might be known as a village, but in truth, it was a cluster of rising and falling tilted buildings.

It was as if the villagers used reinforced concrete to somewhat stabilize the ruins that had fallen a long time ago, then built new ruins above them.

It also looked like a nest for pests that had been magnified ten thousand times.

Leprosy Village was surrounded by mist that was a mix of faint purple, dark brown, and dark red.

Meng Chao was very familiar with this slightly pungent mist, since he grew up in an old residential area.

It was the exhaust released by low-grade crystals, because they were filled with impurities and had poisonous substances. The chemical reaction was also not strong enough.

Compared to Blessed Heavenly Garden, the exhaust around and above Leprosy Village was ten times thicker. It practically hid the sky, so the village did not look like it belonged to this dimension. Instead, it was a village built at the bottom of hell.

By the looks of it, the crystals Leprosy Village used were ten times worse than the ones used in Blessed Heavenly Garden.

It was the lowest quality crystal that not even public buses would use. It produced severe pollution and radiation and had unimaginable consequences to the human body.

But the villagers were already products of the “unimaginable consequences” born from the effects of the Other World continuously invading the bodies of Earthlings.

For the sake of survival, they needed cheap sources of energy, and they couldn’t be bothered about anything else.

Under the heavily polluted smoke, Meng Chao found the trash-filled drain surrounding Leprosy Village.

Most of the trash had rotted and gone bad, which turned it into something that resembled humus and was incredibly sticky and foul-smelling, like something found deep in a jungle.

But more trash was thrown on top of the rotten trash, forming hills that floated above the humus.

Quite a number of the children from Leprosy Village did not care about the humus floating past them. They climbed up the hills of trash and chose the resources that still had some bit of value.

Countless thick, squirming vines covered in thorns also grew from the deepest parts of the humus.

They climbed out of the drains like ivys and stuck to the walls of the buildings in Leprosy Village, turning the colorful, mottled, and damaged buildings into strange creatures that looked even stranger and more twisted, as if they were deformed things that were rotting and fighting for their last breath. It brought about a completely different picture compared to the normal residential areas.

‘This place... is really troublesome!’

Meng Chao scowled.

Leprosy Village was shrouded by heavily polluted smoke, so it was difficult to observe and scan the situation inside.

This meant that they were blinded, and the difficulty of the mission increased by leaps and bounds. The number of sacrifices they had to make would also be higher.

He cast his gaze on the small black market at the entrance of Leprosy Village.

The villagers and normal lair citizens traded without coming into contact with each other and used the barter system.

The entire black market was divided into two sections. On each side were rows of huge storage shelves, along with manually-controlled gears and transportation belts.

The resources brought by the roller bladers were placed in the storage shelves or the transportation belts.

The villagers would then personally crank the gears and pull the daily necessities and raw materials for cultivation to their side.

Then, they would use the same method to transport the gene medicine they created or the weapons they had modified until they no longer looked the same but had ten times the damage.

Because of it, neither side would bother each other, and it reduced the possibility of them getting into conflict.

Meng Chao saw quite a number of villagers on the side belonging to Leprosy Village. They were the descendants of the zombie virus infectees.

Most of them covered themselves tightly with huge cloaks and bandages.

But based on how some of them looked too large or swollen, it was obvious that they were different from normal people. At the very least, normal people would definitely not grow more than 2.5m or have a shoulder width of more than 1m.

There were also some villagers who carefully pulled off their hoods and revealed their true faces to test the armor, fighting suits, and all sorts of weapons and equipment sent by the outside world.

Perhaps it was because they were the second or third generation of the infectees, but the mutated genes had slowly stabilized, and they were not as deformed or hideous as Meng Chao imagined.

Some people’s facial features were no different from those of normal people. It was just that they had blue or red skin.

Some of them had really fair skin, and their faces were even more beautiful than those of normal people. But their ears perked up, and fangs revealed themselves, which proved that they were also descendants of the infectees.

Some people were short and stout. They did not look like dwarves, but were like burly bodybuilders who were squashed until they were half their original height, squeezing more than 100kg of muscles into a body that was less than 1.3m tall. They were covered by hair that looked like steel brushes, and when they jumped around, they were like steel bombs that would explode on contact.

Some people also had a faint layer of scales on their arms. Their cheeks had traces of parotid glands, and they looked like they were more suited to live in water compared to land.

In truth, some people even had four arms and could use them with great agility. If they lifted four guns at the same time, the firepower they unleashed would be twice as good as that of a normal person.

When Meng Chao saw the legendary infectee descendants, he was a little stunned, and a strange sense of familiarity rose in his heart.

‘Why do I feel like the descendants of the zombie virus infectees are about the same as the local human-like species who have been living for millions of years in the Other World?’

But the relationship between Earthlings and the Other Worldlings was not what he should explore right now.

Based on the memories of his previous life, many human-like Other Worldlings had natural talents similar to those of monsters, and even if they had never trained their bodies before, they still possessed relatively fierce fighting power.

And this was what worried Meng Chao. He wondered about the villagers’ fighting strength.

At that moment, Meng Chao saw more than ten burning sparks in the 3D map representing the territory around Leprosy Village.

“The elites from the clubs in Golden Tooth Lair have arrived.” Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong told everyone. “There’re a total of thirteen Heaven Realm superhumans. Aside from Saber Jin Wanhao, all the elites in the lair have arrived.”

There were twenty Heaven Realm superhumans in the hunting squad.

Together with the powerful fighters from Golden Tooth Lair, they had a total of thirty-three Heaven Realm superhumans. Their lineup was truly strong.

Even if their target was an Apocalyptic Beast or a Deity Realm superhuman, they were confident that they could fight against them.

And even though the normal club members did not have high cultivation realms, they had an advantage in numbers. They were quite well equipped with light and heavy weapons, and now, they had quietly surrounded Leprosy Village.

Once fearsome firepower was set up at the highest points and the tactical strongholds, the veteran hunters finally sighed in relief.

At that moment, the rollerblader sending the raw materials had reached Leprosy Village.

Big Brother Knife, who was at the perimeter of the lair, also received a new email from the mastermind.

There were only two rows of numbers in the email.

The first row was the number of a storage shelf.

The second row was the password to open the storage box.

The rollerblader stuffed the backpack with the locating chip into the storage box.

All the veteran hunters stared at the storage shelf.

The club members, who were familiar with all the nooks and crannies of the lair, released more than one hundred rats that were biochemically modified and had chips as well as electrodes planted in their heads.

The rats carried mini cameras and sensors.

Under the control of humans, they snuck into the humus, went over the drain, and searched for a drain hole.

No matter how much Leprosy Village isolated itself from the world, it still needed to throw out a large amount of household and industrial waste.

Humans had a hard time moving through poisonous and corrosive liquid waste, but biochemically modified rats could.

And they brought with them super sensitive sensors. They could test the microcomponents of more than one hundred raw materials in no time.

Very soon, the rats snuck into Leprosy Village through the drainage pipes.

They sensed that there were components of the Deification Capsule in the industrial waste.

The further they went into Leprosy Village, the greater was the density of the raw materials of the Deification Capsules in the liquid waste.

Quite a number of pests that had been living in the draining pipes showed different degrees of excitement, as if they were affected by the residual liquid from creating the Deification Capsules.

The biochemical rats’ breathing, heart rates, and various physiological parameters also showed abnormalities.

This was enough to prove that the Deification Capsule pharmacy was hidden in Leprosy Village.

At that moment, someone took the package from the storage shelf.

The one who did it was a small boy.

He should also be playing the part of a rollerblader.

Soon, he was concealed by the smoke and broke away from the veteran hunters’ surveillance.

But the chip in the package could provide them with his real-time location and scan the general terrain around him.

Even though they were limited by the transmission power, and the 3D map created from the scans was blurry, they could connect it with the coordinates the biochemical rats gave them after they found the spot with the thickest density of residual liquid from creating Deification Capsules. They had settled on it after going through all the clues, so the veteran hunters were basically sure about the location of the Deification Capsule pharmacy.

Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong looked at Meng Chao and whispered, “We’ve already scanned 30% of Leprosy Village through the locating chip and the biochemical rats.

“When the scanned area is more than 50% and we’ve gained the general location of the Deification Capsule pharmacy as well as created three offensive routes and retreat routes, we’ll rush in. You alright with that?”

“Yeah.” Then Meng Chao shook his head and said a little hesitantly, “But Senior Zhou, I’ve been combing through our capture operation, and I found something that doesn’t make sense.

“First, why did the mastermind choose Big Brother Knife to help him do stuff? No. I’m not talking about the problem of loyalty. A traitor who was chased out of his gang definitely doesn’t have any loyalty. Anyone who interrogates him will learn all the secrets.

“I’m saying that Big Brother Knife stands out too much. His arm was switched to a blade, and his leg is crippled. He limps when he walks, and it’s difficult to not recognize him.

“With how cautious the mastermind is, shouldn’t they look for someone who is more average-looking, less eye-catching, and can hide themselves easier? Big Brother Knife is someone who works at the bottom of society, he’s not some rare talent. At the very least, he shouldn’t be a handler who receives and sends out goods, because that requires him to show up in public!

“I’ve been thinking about this all the way here, and the more I think about it, the more it doesn’t make sense. Big Brother Knife is practically a bait the mastermind placed under a spotlight for us to find!”
