In the end, if a powerful fighter had more than ten descendants, they would be considered chaste. If they had dozens of children, they would be perfect. In fact, there were even weirdos who had more than one hundred seeds.
It had to be noted that there was no difference between legitimate children and illegitimate children among these children.
Because during the short apocalypse, the marriage system on Earth only existed in name.
The normal people who lacked power still needed the marriage system to stay together.
But to the peerless fighters who could destroy buildings with a swing of their fists, when they moved through the bloody path filled with zombies and monsters, the Marriage Law on Earth could not restrain them in the slightest.
After transmigrating for more than half a century, the peerless fighter and his children and grandchildren formed the third generation of the pyramid.
The nine great cultivation families were filled with people.
Even the smallest family had dozens of direct descendants in the third generation.
As for the number of branch families, it was hard to say.
Otherwise, how could they be known as rich families?
Hence, the competition within the nine great cultivation families was incredibly fierce.
Take Lu Siya as an example. She was clearly the granddaughter of the peerless fighter. Her father was young and strong, and he had successfully entered the core management of Sky Pillar Corporation. She was not a good-for-nothing either. Instead, she had risked her life to discover the Red Radiance Jade mine and risked her life to fight against Gao Ye, who had turned into a monster.
Even so, she did not manage to protect the right to mine the Red Radiance Jade mine first. She was kicked out of the family due to the open and secret fights.
If Lu Siya was already like that, then the branch family members of the nine great cultivation families and the losers in the family fights were indignant. They hoped to use Blue Home's power to make a comeback, and it was only human nature.
These five types of people were the general appearance of the members of Blue Home.
However, based on Meng Chao's secret observations, it would not be fair to say that they were determined to return to Earth regardless of the cost.
The normal citizens might want to open the tunnel between the Other World and Earth.
The civil officials and researchers did not want Dragon City to be at war for a long period of time.
But the superhumans who longed to reach higher realms, the losers of the rich families who hoped to turn the tables in their family fights, and the Deity Realm superhumans who wanted to make their voices louder in the Survival Committee were not averse to war.
After all, war was the best way to reshuffle the cards.
The problem was that through the Colonization Party, the Nine Great Cultivation Families controlled most of the profits that could be brought about by the war.
For example, to colonize the Other World, Dragon City decided to design and produce a brand new armored airship known as Thunderbolt Airship.
In terms of technical parameters, the cruising speed must exceed 100 kilometers per hour, and the maximum speed must exceed 130 kilometers per hour.
Its full cruising range was more than 3,000 kilometers.
This was an out-and-out strategic offensive weapon.
The companies that designed and produced the Thunderbolt Airship, including the upstream and downstream industries, were all controlled by the Nine Great Clans.
Through the Survival Committee, the Nine Great Clans invested a large amount of money into Thunderbolt Airship.
Once the conditions for mass production were met, they might be able to produce more than one thousand of them in one go, and the armored airships currently in use in Dragon City would be completely upgraded.
The profits involved here were astronomical figures.
However, only the Nine Great Clans could dip a finger into this astronomical profit.
Even after the Thunderbolt Airship formed an army in the future, the position of airship commander could only be taken up by superhumans who were related to the nine great cultivation families.
In other words, the Nine Great Clans were the ones who set the rules of the Colonization War.
Regardless of which superhuman wanted to obtain profits from the war, they had to play the game according to the rules set by the Nine Great Clans.
This was something many superhumans who did not come from the Nine Great Clans did not want to see.
That was why they supported the Home Party.
Based on the Home Party's ideals, contacting Earth was the most important thing. Thunderbolt Airship was just a money-burning machine that would make them use up all their resources. They should cut off all their budget and pour it into a project that was more needed. Naturally, the project that was more needed should not be a project controlled by the Nine Great Clans.
Everyone was an adult.
They would not easily fight against each other because of different ideals.
The benefits behind their ideals were the reason why the Home Party had been able to rise to power in just a few short years. They were even able to stand on equal footing with the Colonization Party, and Blue Home had been able to attract more elites from various industries.
The in-depth communication with these elites gave Meng Chao a lot of inspiration.
It also allowed him to gradually piece together the full picture of the current Dragon City from a higher perspective. He understood a lot of things that he could not understand when he was a low-grade harvester in his previous life.
He was not disappointed and did not have childish thoughts like "Ah, this is too dark and ugly".
After going through the apocalypse, he could face the brutal reality better than any other citizen in Dragon City.
There was definitely something wrong with Dragon City.
Otherwise, how could it have been destroyed in his previous life?
However, Meng Chao had thought that the pyrrhic victory in the Monster War was the problem. As long as he could think of a way to win the Monster War at full health, he could completely change the future.
But by the looks of it, the pyrrhic victory in the Monster War was just a symptom, not the cause.
Dragon City was filled with danger and plenty of conflicts!
But that was nothing.
Regardless of whether it was the solidification of the social strata, the gradual closing of the channels to rise in power, or the open and hidden fights between interest groups, they were all chronic illnesses of human civilization. All the dynasties had gone through it. Many of the ancient civilizations had more internal conflicts than Dragon City, but it did not stop them from expanding their territory and defeating the barbarians badly.
At the very least, the current Dragon City was not beyond cure.
The people still respected heroes and protected justice. Even if the higher-ups gradually solidified into different interest groups, they could still be considered to be leading the charge. Their behavior was not too ugly. When they faced monsters and needed to sacrifice themselves, they did not hesitate too much. No matter how fierce the conflict between the Colonization Party and Home Party was, it was within the boundaries of legality and reason. Perhaps the competition between the two factions was a good thing. After all, the more the truth was debated, the clearer it would become!
Meng Chao was only worried about two things.
The first was the ending of Project 101.
Over this period of time, he had become friends with the transmigration expert Wu Haibo through Zhao Feixuan.
He also indirectly reminded him that he had to pay attention to the safety of the experiment. Even if the experiment seemed to be a great success, he could not be blindly optimistic. He had to take proper safety measures and pay attention to preserving the experiment data as well as nurturing his successors to ensure that no accidents could stop the development of controllable transmigration.
There was nothing he could do about it. He did not have the details of Project 101's failure in his previous life.
Even if Wu Haibo was interested and was willing to talk to him about the basic principles of controllable transmigration, those abstruse and complicated formulas that were like ants dancing after getting drunk gave him a splitting headache, as if he had returned to the days before the college entrance examination, which he could not bear to look back on.
Meng Chao could only help them with the controllable transmigration project up to this point.
Because he had more important things to do.
And that was to find the abnormal beast hidden in Blue Home.
After coming into contact with them for some time, Meng Chao felt that Blue Home was an upright and healthy organization.
However, that didn't mean it wouldn't transform into a nest for exotic beasts.
When two cockroaches were found in the house, it meant that there were hundreds of cockroaches lurking in the dark corners.
When Blue Home produced Lin Chuan and Gao Ye, who were two incredibly radical people who destroyed order, Blue Home's members were shocked.
Meng Chao had to suspect that many of the Blue Home members had been bewitched by abnormal beasts and had the possibility of becoming the next Lin Chuan or Gao Ye. More accurately speaking, they had the potential to become the next Lin Chuan.
It was especially so for people like Zhao Feixuan. He was skilled in highly destructive professional skills, and his ideals did not fit in with the nine great cultivation families who controlled Dragon City. He was relatively young and impulsive. Under the bewitchment of abnormal beasts, it was very easy for him to go through spirit energy deviation and turn into a puppet without knowing it.
There were plenty of people like Zhao Feixuan in Blue Home.
Meng Chao had a high suspicion that they had long since been targeted by abnormal beasts.
'If I were an abnormal beast, it wouldn't be a good idea to control a monster's body to fight head-on against the humans' steel army. '
Meng Chao often used the professional skills he learned in Ghost Tribe's training camp to think hard at night. 'How can I intensify the internal conflicts in Dragon City and tear apart the factions and groups in Dragon City so that Dragon City will collapse on its own? This is the best way to achieve victory without shedding a drop of blood on my blade.
"It's not very difficult to do that.
"First of all, humans have already been split into superhumans and normal people, but Dragon City is still united. It's because we're being pressured by the threat to our survival. No one wants to die together, so they can only work together.
'So, as an abnormal beast, I shouldn't launch a large-scale monster horde invasion in the battlefield for the time being. If I have enough control over the monsters, I can even make a tactical retreat and give up some space to the humans so that the monsters will not stand a chance and the humans will become arrogant and think that they are about to win the war.
'That way, the humans' attention will shift from destroying the monsters to how they should split the cake after they destroy the monsters.
'Coincidentally, the victory in the northern offense has already made some of the humans complacent. I just need to go with the flow and add fuel to the fire.
'Then, I need to intensify the conflict between the human factions.
'Right now, even though the Colonization Party and Home Party are in conflict with each other, they are at most arguing in the temples and on the streets. They are arguing within the limits of what is legal and reasonable, so it's useless.
'I need to cultivate a few more hotheads like Lin Chuan and Gao Ye. As for the method, it's simple. I just need to pretend to be an extremist of the Colonization Party and assassinate a few core members of the Home Party. I can also pretend to be an extremist of the Home Party and assassinate a few important people of the Colonization Party.
'That's right. It's better for me to pretend to be an extremist of the Home Party and assassinate the Colonization Party. After all, the Colonization Party is the mainstream right now. Once the Colonization Party flies into a rage because of the assassinations and decides to attack the Home Party, organizations like Blue Home will definitely become extreme within a short period of time. They will evolve and become violent. They will then cause chaos in Dragon City!'
