"I've also heard of Blue Home from many of my friends. I've also run into friends from Blue Home during the volunteer activities recently."
Meng Chao smiled. "But I never had the chance to understand Blue Home in depth. Just what sort of organization is it?"
"We're an organization for Earth culture lovers."
Zhao Feixuan narrowed his eyes with an intoxicated look on his face. "Earth is our eternal home. We have blue skies and white clouds. We have famous mountains and rivers. We have endless waves. There are no zombies, no monsters, and there's no difference between normal people and superhumans. Everyone is equal, and we live in harmony. We live happily together. It's a beautiful paradise!"
"That's right …" Meng Chao was deeply moved.
"Compared to the Other World, Earth is really a paradise. If it's possible, I want to transmigrate back to Earth with Dragon City."
These were Meng Chao's true thoughts.
After all, if Dragon City stayed in the Other World, it would have to face the invasion and destruction of many extraordinary beings. In the end, it would welcome the apocalypse.
Zhao Feixuan observed Meng Chao's expression, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Leader Meng, if you're really interested in returning to Earth, why don't you come and visit Blue Home's activities when you're free?"
He said with a grin. "Most of our members are Earth culture lovers, so they will definitely speak the same language as you. Once in a while, we invite experts in transmigration technology to come and give lectures so that we can gather ideas and search for a way to return to Earth.
"By the way, Lin Chuan, who sacrificed himself in the northern offense, is also a member of Blue Home. I'm pretty good friends with him. Even though we don't have a lot of chances to meet each other, every time we do, we talk until the end of the night.
"I remember that you're really close to Lin Chuan as well, right?"
After all, the White Spirit case was still being investigated.
Everything that happened under Raging Waves had yet to be revealed to the public.
The reports that were sent to the major news organizations only mentioned that Lin Chuan had turned the tide and stopped the Red Radiance Jade mine from exploding.
But they did not mention anything about him and the White Spirit.
Hence, in the hearts of normal people, Lin Chuan was still a perfect hero.
If Zhao Feixuan was really related to the White Spirit's creator, he might know the truth behind what happened to Lin Chuan.
But Meng Chao could not find any clues on his face. It was as if he knew nothing.
Since he invited him so warmly, Meng Chao would naturally seize the opportunity.
They first went to the medical station in the temporary settlement to conduct a zombie virus test on Zhao Feixuan to confirm that he did not show any signs of zombification.
After sending Xiao Fanghua to the study class, they returned to their respective volunteer activity spots.
Once the volunteer event ended, Meng Chao and Zhao Feixuan gathered the people from the Broken Star Club and Blue Home together. They went to the temporary settlement and found a cheap restaurant for a meal.
This kind of small restaurant that served ordinary people naturally didn't have any delicacies.
Fortunately, everyone had similar backgrounds and were about the same age. They were also determined to serve Dragon Citizens, and a few of them were members of Blue Home and Broken Star Club at the same time. With just a few words, the atmosphere instantly became lively.
The meal was in full swing.
Everyone's faces were glowing.
After drinking and eating, Meng Chao and Zhao Feixuan became pretty good friends.
Meng Chao noticed that sneaking into Blue Home was not a difficult mission.
After all, he and Zhao Feixuan had a lot in common.
For example, it was impossible for them to conquer all of the Other World with just a small part of Dragon City. Even if they managed to win a few battles, Dragon City would be slowly devoured and corroded by the Other World's large population.
For example, the unfair distribution of resources in Dragon City. The mega corporations and cultivation families continued growing in power, which led to the Matthew Effect. The strong became stronger, and the weak became weaker. If this continued, it would be incredibly easy for the social strata between normal people and superhumans to be torn apart, and the enemy would seize the chance to divide Dragon City.
For example, the nine great mega corporations who created the Survival Committee in the past were not willing to truly obey the Survival Committee's authority, and they showed signs of being unable to do anything about it. If this continued, no one knew where Dragon City would end up.
In the end, the other volunteers bade farewell to Meng Chao and Zhao Feixuan, but the more they talked, the more engrossed they became.
When Xiao Fanghua finished teaching the night shift and came to them, they were still sitting at the entrance of the restaurant. They stared at the dilapidated temporary settlement and the brightly lit high-rise mansions in the distance. They spoke excitedly and gave pointers to the city.
"I've rarely seen Old Zhao so happy over the past few months."
When they brought Zhao Feixuan back, who was red in the face and staggering drunkenly, Xiao Fanghua smiled and said to Meng Chao, "Old Zhao sometimes likes to be stubborn, and he doesn't have a lot of friends. Weeping Reaper Lin Chuan is one, and Gao Ye from Spirit Creation Creatures is another. He got to know both of them in Blue Home.
"In the end, both of his friends ran into accidents some time ago. Old Zhao sighed for a long time and became even more depressed.
"It's rare that you hit it off. Meng Chao, I know that you're a busy person, but if you have time, you're welcome to visit our house."
"Of course," Meng Chao said sincerely.
Zhao Feixuan and Xiao Fanghua's house was in a normal residential area with a noisy environment in the south of the city.
Over the next month, Meng Chao went there twice. Not only did he "visit" them, he also discussed with Zhao Feixuan about continuing to carry out public welfare activities in the name of the Broken Star Club and Blue Home.
They also invited the members of the Broken Star Club to go to the classes in the temporary settlements to provide one-to-one guidance to the children whose schools were destroyed and it was inconvenient for them to cultivate.
Also, Zhao Feixuan's new company was set up, and it was called Absolute Defense.
He told Meng Chao that it did not mean that he could definitely fend off all monster invasions.
Instead, it meant that protecting the common home of humans was an unconditional, sacred mission. Regardless of whether they were rich or poor, the tens of millions of Dragon Citizens had the right to enjoy equal defense.
Meng Chao discussed it with his father and fulfilled his promise to become Absolute Defense Security Company's first client.
Superstar would pay and hire Absolute Defense to carry out full repairs, modifications, and upgrades for Blessed Heavenly Garden's defense system.
Of course, Superstar was still in the stage of expansion, so it did not have a lot of cash that it could use. It could only give Absolute Defense a price that made Meng Chao feel embarrassed just by hearing it.
But Zhao Feixuan was really happy.
"It doesn't matter whether it's money or not. The main thing is to make friends!"
He said something that Meng Chao had said before.
Through this relationship, Meng Chao joined a few of Blue Home's events.
It was just as Ye Xiaoxing thought. It was impossible for abnormal beasts to show their faces in public events at the periphery, and they would not involve weapons or schemes.
The members who joined the events were all decent people with legal identities.
Among them were volunteers who served the community, backbones of various industries, hot-blooded students, and a lot of cute girls.
The content of the events was what Ye Xiaoxing had introduced. They would wear ancient clothes from Earth, sing classical poems, play old movies, imitate movie clips, and so on.
Aside from describing Earth as a perfect paradise during the events and shouting a few declarations like "we must return to Earth", Meng Chao had not found any clues for the time being.
He knew that it was impossible for Blue Home to be that simple.
Lin Chuan and Gao Ye had gone through spirit energy deviation just by wearing ancient clothes from Earth and watching old movies from the golden age?
If he had taken on the mission from the abnormal beast research department in the beginning just to take revenge for Lin Chuan …
Now, there was another reason behind it.
Meng Chao sincerely wanted to become friends with Zhao Feixuan. He did not want him to end up like Lin Chuan and Gao Ye and step on the path of a lost person like in his previous life.
Besides, he had gotten to know a lot of hot-blooded people of the same age as him in Blue Home. There were also superhumans who worked hard in various industries for Dragon City's future.
He did not want these people to be bewitched by the abnormal beasts and turn into their puppets.
Meng Chao was desperate to get into the core circle of Blue Home.
But more haste makes waste. This was not something that could be rushed.
After joining more than ten events at the periphery of Blue Home and showing great interest, his chance finally arrived.
Zhao Feixuan came to Meng Chao in hopes that he would help him.
He had to start with the newest order from the Survival Committee.
As the monsters continued evolving, their attacks on Dragon City became more targeted, and they became more secretive.
Usually, they could catch the monsters off guard and launch lightning and suicidal attacks on the warehouses that stored a lot of resources in Dragon City.
Every time, they could only destroy half of a warehouse, a gene farm, or pollute a water source. The losses were not great.
Once the news was released, the people panicked. The prices of goods skyrocketed, and Dragon City's economic order was under great pressure.
The prices of resources related to cultivation, such as crystals, monster raw materials, gene medicine, high-calorie nutritional fluid, and rare metals used to create weapons and runic symbol machines, changed by leaps and bounds every day.
Many superhumans chose to prepare for a rainy day and store a lot of cultivation resources.
All sorts of powerful corporations started hoarding and monopolizing all sorts of cultivation resources so that they could get rich.
Not only did the normal citizens complain, but the middle-grade and low-grade superhumans who did not have any connections were also angry because their daily cultivation was affected.
The normal cultivation order in the superhuman circle was also affected.
The Survival Committee had to issue an order to strictly forbid hoarding. Each superhuman could only store half a month's worth of cultivation resources, and those who disobeyed would be severely punished.
But there were black markets everywhere in Dragon City.
All sorts of underground auctions could be found everywhere.
As the northern frontlines were developed, the phenomenon of people mining resources privately became a common sight.
Zhao Feixuan came to Meng Chao because a member of Blue Home had accidentally discovered an underground warehouse with a lot of cultivation resources that had not been reported to the authorities.
From the raw crystal ores that had just been mined to the monster raw materials that had been processed, to the boxes of gene medicine and high-calorie nutritional fluid that had no labels on them, the resources piled up in the warehouse were enough for hundreds of superhumans to cultivate for a few years.
Clearly, this underground warehouse was not something that just any Tom, Dick, or Harry could possess.
If they wanted to find the owner of the warehouse and bring him to justice, they had to mobilize the power of various channels.
