Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 720 - The Saintess of Dragon City

Chapter 720: The Saintess of Dragon City

The two of them looked at each other and were speechless for a long time.

“I really have to go.”

Lu Siya said, “The accounts of the Lair’s reconstruction and the progress of several projects that we collaborated on are all in the computer. You know the password. Take your time to read them!”

After saying this, she opened the office door and let the chilly early autumn wind gradually start to stimulate her sleepy brain.

She took a deep breath and walked out without looking back.

“Wait!” Meng Chao shouted from behind.

“Hmm?” Lu Siya turned back.

“You forgot this.” Meng Chao brought the oral nutrition liquid over.

“...Thank you!” Lu Siya said unhappily.

She did not take the oral nutrition liquid and continued walking. When she was about to reach the stairs, she turned back and waved at Meng Chao.

“Are you still cultivating with the Battle God, Lei Zongchao?” she asked without thinking when Meng Chao came running over.

“Yes, what’s wrong?”

The ancient ruins were top secret and could not be revealed easily. However, there was nothing to hide about cultivating with the Battle God. Lu Siya and her family already knew about it.

“It’s nothing. To be able to cultivate with the Battle God is the dream of many superhumans. Of course, it’s not a problem.”

After a moment of silence, Lu Siya could not help but say, “If you want to train, do it. However, don’t get too close to the people of Battle God Palace, and don’t meddle in their affairs. Do you understand?”

“I don’t understand.”

Meng Chao was confused. “What’s wrong with Battle God Palace? Aren’t they all like me, the poor kids from the old neighborhoods and slums, the regular officers of the Red Dragon Army, and the war orphans? Everyone has gathered together to discuss how to contribute to Dragon City. What do you mean by ‘don’t get too close’? What do you mean by ‘don’t meddle’?”

“...Forget it.”

Lu Siya waved her hand in annoyance. “I’m really leaving!”

“Wait a minute, Sister Ya. What special mission do you have tonight?”

Seeing her like this, Meng Chao could npt help but break his commandment. “Can I join?”

“You?”

Lu Siya sized up Meng Chao from head to toe and sneered. “Normally, I would welcome you warmly and gladly. But looking at you today, you look even more haggard than me. Are you sure that you can complete the mission successfully in 100% condition and not drag others down?”

That was true.

Ever since his sister had gone up the Stairway to Heaven and he had lost control of his spirit energy in a moment of impatience, Meng Chao had noticed that the burden he had put on himself during this period of time had been too heavy.

There was a limit to carrying out the mission with injuries. Staying in a state of 30% health for a long time would consume too much of his body. Only one with a monster-level body like him could support it, but it would still be too much for him.

The current him was not suitable for carrying out treacherous and treacherous high-risk missions with Lu Siya.

If he forced himself into battle, he was afraid that he would not be helping her but rather creating trouble for her. This would distract Lu Siya.

“Should I set off tonight?”

Meng Chao thought to himself. If Lu Siya could set off tomorrow, he would have the time to look for Su Mulian to treat him. Then, he would use tens of thousands of contribution points, or even hundreds of thousands of contribution points, to exchange all of them for healing techniques and use them on himself. If he swallowed another 180 bottles of gene medicine in one go and cultivated for an entire night, he should be able to recover roughly.

Then, he would be able to fight side by side with Lu Siya.

“Yes. The personnel, equipment, and vehicles are all ready. I’ll set off as soon as I return to the department.”

Lu Siya did not give him the slightest chance.

“In that case, you be careful.”

Meng Chao could only say this. After pausing for a moment, he added, “Don’t work too hard!”

Lu Siya laughed.

“Lin Chuan hasn’t been avenged yet, and we still haven’t figured out the white spirit’s secret. We still don’t know who drilled a hole in the white spirit’s spine and made it grow new nerve-expanding organs, turning it from a low-level super beast into a smart top-notch abnormal beast. How can I not try my best?” she asked faintly.

The atmosphere between the two became solemn again when Lin Chuan was mentioned.

Indeed, in the past half a year, the people of Dragon City had been winning on all fronts in the foggy wilderness and Monster Mountain Range, and they had achieved brilliant results as well as obtained countless monsters.

Those Apocalyptic Beasts that once wreaked havoc in Dragon City and showed off their might in the nightmares of countless people had almost all submitted to the feet of humans.

However...

The people of Dragon City still had not figured out the mystery of monster evolution. They had failed to find and destroy the mysterious force that upgraded the “monsters” into a “monster civilization”, and they had not found the sister of the Underground Emperor, Jin Wanhao. There was only a trace of the “golden millennium”, who was known to be more talented than the Battle God, Lei Zongchao in the past.

If one imagined the monster civilization as a super monster that blotted out the sky and covered the sun, the monster civilization would be nothing more than a giant monster.

Now, the human beings had only pulled out its claws and teeth, as well as chopped off its limbs and tail.

Nevertheless, they still had no idea about the mystery hidden deep in its brain.

It was very likely that this was a monster that had mastered the ability of unlimited cell division and proliferation.

If its brain was not dug out, even if it was cut open and dismembered, it would not make people feel at ease.

“I better go with you!” Meng Chao suddenly said out of the blue.

Lu Siya looked at him deeply and could not help but laugh.

“Meng Chao, did the series of victories in the past inflate your ego and make you think that only you can save Dragon City? No matter what mission it is, it can’t be completed without you?”

Lu Siya snatched the oral nutrition liquid from Meng Chao’s hand and continued to sneer. “In the past half a year, you went into seclusion in the Supernatural Tower while I led nine groups by myself. Didn’t I manage to make it through the dragon’s den and the tiger’s den? Cut the crap. I’m leaving. Hurry up and look for Ms. Mulian. Perhaps, you might even be able to make it in time for dinner and have it with her!”

“Alright.”

Meng Chao also felt that his suggestion had been very unprofessional.

It seemed that he had been training and testing too hard during this period of time, so he had lost his most basic judgment.

He had admonished her without hesitation. “Sister Ya, take care of yourself. I’ll go look for Ms. Mulian right away.”

.....

If one had to ask, in the half a year since the Lair’s reconstruction, Su Mulian was definitely the one who had changed the most among the Lair residents.

In that half a year, with Broken Star Club and Blue Home’s strong support, she had first gone on a lecture tour throughout the city, telling all the citizens about the Lair and Leprosy Village.

She let everyone know that there had actually been such a dark place in the depths of Dragon City. Under the same sky, so many unjust things had happened, and that there were also so many humans with red blood flowing in their bodies. Yet, they had such an unbearable fate.

It could be said that Su Mulian’s story had awakened the most simple sense of justice in the hearts of tens of millions of citizens. It was only because of this that the Lair’s reconstruction plan could be carried out so smoothly and raise far more funds than expected from all parties.

Su Mulian was very grateful.

After solving the problem of living and livelihood of Leprosy Village’s villagers, she used her incredible healing ability to wholeheartedly serve all the citizens of Dragon City.

Whether it was the bottom-class people in the slums who suffered infections from the zombie virus and Blood Flower spores, or those with deformed and mutated bodies, or the regular soldiers who had fought bloody battles on the frontlines and gotten corroded by the monsters’ acid as well as venom, or a superhuman who had gone mad due to crazy cultivation...

She treated all of them equally. She took care of them as if they were her brothers and sisters.

Su Mulian’s method of treatment was to transfer the injuries of others into her own body. Then, she would make use of her “infinite self-healing” ability to digest and absorb them silently.

Although it was effective, it was extremely painful.

It was hard for Meng Chao to imagine how such a thin and tender little body could absorb the suffering of the vast ocean like a bottomless pit.

What kind of power was it that supported her to be like an ascetic monk, day after day, unwavering, and completely dedicated to herself.

In short, Su Mulian’s every word and action deeply touched all the citizens of Dragon City.

In the hearts of the several dozen million citizens, she had long been upgraded from the “Saintess of Leprosy Village” to the “Saintess of Dragon City”. She was the spiritual symbol of the Dragon City civilization’s benevolent side.

Encouraged by Su Mulian, many people of Dragon City who lived outside of Leprosy Village had stood up bravely and revealed the hidden abnormal mutation on their bodies.

Over the past half a century, the zombie virus had infected almost all the people of Dragon City. Compared with the Earth era, everyone’s body was more or less different now.

Strictly speaking, superhumans were also some kind of mutant. As long as they cultivated to the two-star Spirit Transformation Realm, their spirit power would stimulate their cells, and they would be able to grow fangs, sharp claws, scales, bone spurs, fur, and other strengthening organs. However, they were under human control, so they just did not look that deformed.

In the past, the people of Dragon City had been very secretive about the mutations in their bodies.

Now, however, everyone felt that it was no big deal. As long as they were like Su Mulian and had boundless humanity, why would it matter what their bodies looked like?

People smiled, understood, and accepted their imperfections and their compatriots’ imperfections.

Tolerance was the privilege of the strong.

In the past, the people of Dragon City, who had been short on space and resources, had not been qualified to enjoy such a privilege.

However, after defeating the monster civilization, most of the Dragon City people had gradually become spirit powerhouses.

Now, Su Mulian had cooperated with the major hospitals of Dragon City and joined the roving medical team. Every day, she traveled to various communities in Dragon City and various battlefronts outside the city. She was also very busy.

However, she always had a different attitude toward Meng Chao.

When she heard that Meng Chao had come out of seclusion, she ran back from the medical station at the frontline and waited for him respectfully in the Lair.

When Su Mulian saw the oral nutrition liquid in Meng Chao’s hand, her reaction was completely different from Lu Siya’s.

After repeatedly confirming that it was a gift for her, she became so excited that her voice changed. She felt... overwhelmed by the favor.

“Thank... Thank you, Mr. Meng Chao. Thank you so, so much!”

Su Mulian hugged the oral nutrition liquid tightly. Her expression indicated that she felt as if she was dreaming. “I really didn’t expect to receive a gift from you!”

Meng Chao felt that Su Mulian was quite interesting.

Her attitude toward him had always been at two extremes.

When she first discovered his identity, she had been so afraid that it was as if she had seen a devil that could destroy the world.

Once she gradually got used to it, though, she became more attentive... too attentive.

Meng Chao had many supporters.

Through the Public Relations Department of Superstar Resources, he had held some face-to-face meetings and given small gifts to his supporters.

But no supporter had ever been so excited when they received a gift, as though they had been electrocuted.
