He braced himself and listened to the girl talk for half an hour before he finally understood what was going on.
Honestly, it was not complicated.
The girl and Mohawk Head were childhood sweethearts. Their families were average, and when they were young, they did not get good cultivation resources. They went to the primary school in the market, normal high school, and vocational school in the community. After they graduated, they did not manage to find a job.
Nowadays, the work efficiency of superhumans was ten times that of a normal person. The jobs that were backed by mega corporations and related departments, had high salaries, good benefits, and were stable and decent. They also had a lot of cultivation opportunities. No matter what, normal people could not get their hands on jobs.
The consumer market and job market in Dragon City had always been very bleak. With the popularity of biochemical pets and runic symbol machines, all the industries were moving in the direction of automation. A superhuman could control a few automated machines and complete a workload that more than one hundred normal people could not complete. It was no longer news that normal people would lose their jobs after they graduated.
The girl and Mohawk Head had three or even eight siblings in their families. They relied on odd jobs and the Survival Committee to help them survive.
Unfortunately, they were attacked by monsters, and their old residential area was reduced to ruins. They were forced to move to a temporary settlement that was even more crowded and noisy.
Mohawk Head was the king of the children in the residential area, and he often brought his friends to cause trouble.
When they arrived at the temporary settlement, the residents of the eight residential areas were all squeezed together. Most of them were hot-blooded youngsters who could not find jobs, so there was no way they would not cause trouble.
Mohawk Head brought his friends to fight every few days, and as time went by, he gained some fame. Not only did he get to know Big Brother Wolf, who had a lot of connections, he also got to know a two-star superhuman called Big Brother Liao.
It was said that Big Brother Liao was originally an employee of a mega corporation.
However, big corporations had their own problems. They had all sorts of job titles and test targets, and they really exploited superhumans like they were animals.
A two-star superhuman was already outstanding in the eyes of normal people.
In mega corporations like Sky Pillar, Universe, and Soaring Dragon, they were normal employees who had to calculate the time they took to go to the toilet.
The proud Big Brother Liao did not want to stay in a big corporation and be exploited by high-grade superhumans like they were salted fish.
Hence, he brought his two one-star superhuman colleagues and quit their jobs to start his own business.
Ever since they gained full victory in the northern offense, the most popular industry in Dragon City was to explore the fog.
As long as their fists were strong enough and they dared to put their lives on the line, there would naturally be a large number of venture capitalists who would be willing to sponsor the cost of building a stronghold in the wilderness. They could even solve the problem of weapons and equipment.
Now that the problem of money and equipment was solved, the next problem was manpower.
With Big Brother Liao's appeal as a two-star superhuman, it was clearly impossible for him to find a Heaven Realm superhuman to help him.
Besides, if Heaven Realm superhumans were to be in charge of the situation, who would be the one to start their own business?
Big Brother Liao made up his mind and decided to take a gamble. He looked for normal people who had not awakened to supernatural powers but had a certain level of fighting skills and were very courageous.
None of the Dragon Citizens who had lived through fifty years of bloodshed were to be trifled with.
When they were three or five years old, they learned how to stand and meditate. When they were seven or eight years old, they could wield sabers and guns. When they were in their teens, they could control shoulder-mounted anti-monster rocket launchers. This was nothing.
In the beginning, they had no other choice when they did not have enough ammunition.
Right now, Dragon City had developed a few large metal mines and crystal mines. They might not have high-tech weapons, but at the very least, they had enough firearms and ammunition for individual soldiers. It was not a problem for everyone to have a rocket launcher, so the normal people were becoming bolder and bolder.
Big Brother Liao soon found Mohawk Head.
Mohawk Head had long since grown tired of living in the shantytown and doing nothing while waiting to die.
His old home was already in ruins, and the construction of his new house was still a long way off.
Even if he really built his new house and let them live there for free, he still had six siblings in his house. There was no way he could have his own room and marry his childhood sweetheart.
Even if he did get married, as a normal person without a stable job, was he supposed to let his children live a boring life like his?
Hence, Mohawk Head and Big Brother Liao hit it off and gathered a group of friends he had been with since they were young to follow Big Brother Liao out of the city to conquer the world.
He originally did not want to bring a girlfriend.
Instead, he slapped his chest and promised that he would definitely follow Big Brother Liao and gain a stable footing in the depths of the wild.
When the mega corporations bought the developing land they opened, they would become rich overnight and rise to the top.
In fact, Mohawk Head even imagined himself running into a miracle in the wild and rising to the top like his idol, Meng Chao.
At that time, he would naturally come back in a grand manner to marry his girlfriend and make everyone dumbfounded for an entire day!
However, the women in Dragon City did not have a lot of "weak" blood flowing in their veins.
They were never used to waiting for others to save them.
Since they were fighting for their families, they naturally had to fight side by side.
Hence, the girl and her boyfriend received special training from Big Brother Liao, and she knew a little about her boyfriend's relationship with Big Brother Wolf.
Apparently, Mohawk Head had gotten the Deification Capsules from Big Brother Wolf and said that they were his life-saving straw. In the beginning, Big Brother Liao did not want to believe it.
But Mohawk Head and Big Brother Liao must have secretly tested the effects of the Deification Capsules, and they were very satisfied with them, so Big Brother Liao tacitly allowed Mohawk Head to bring one hundred Deification Capsules with him.
As for how much the capsules cost and whether he bought them from Big Brother Wolf or if there were other conditions attached to them, the girl did not know.
She also had her own thoughts on why the Deification Capsules did not have any problems during the initial experiments, but caused so many people to die from exhaustion and even spontaneously combusting when they were in real combat.
She believed that Mohawk Head and Big Brother Liao did not take all the Deification Capsules during the initial experiments. They only took half or even less of the medicinal liquid.
Besides, since it was an experiment, it was impossible for them to really find hundreds of monsters to fight against, so everyone's minds and bodies were rather relaxed.
When it came to life and death battles, everyone would be highly excited, and they would release power that surpassed their limits. Naturally, when they killed monsters, their hearts, brains, and even cells would not be able to withstand it.
"Big Brother Wolf is the one who killed Little Hua!"
The girl said fiercely with bloodshot eyes. "We have to capture him! We can't let him use the Deification Capsules to harm people anymore!"
Meng Chao did not quite agree with the girl's words.
He had also taken a lot of gene medicine that was awaiting approval from the black market and the deep web.
Naturally, he knew the thoughts of the people who took it.
Words like "new product released by a major company" were nothing more than a joke. One party was willing to take the hit, and the other was willing to take the hit.
It could only be said that in the Other World, where the strong preyed on the weak, humans were willing to pay a higher price than they did on Earth to obtain great power.
When it came to cultivation, those who were willing to gamble had to be willing to lose. There was no right or wrong in that.
Besides, if it were not for the Deification Capsules, the five survivors would not have been able to survive.
From this angle, Big Brother Wolf was not a complete liar, right?
However, based on the information provided by the girl, Meng Chao noticed that the Big Brother Wolf she mentioned was not a superhuman. He was just a normal person who loved fighting and had some experience in pathfinding.
As a normal person, where did Big Brother Wolf get such a domineering medicine?
Meng Chao could not get too many clues from the girl, so he comforted her a little more. Once he left the infirmary, he called Qin Hu.
"Mr. Hu, it's me. Hmm, I'm done training in the wild. It was pretty good. Today, I killed a Tyrant Mammoth. Later, I'll bring some fresh mammoth meat back for you to try. Um, it's male, but doesn't it taste a little heavy? Will it taste good? Alright, I'll bring the whole thing back. Let's see what you can do … "
After chatting for a while, Meng Chao went to the main topic. "It's like this, Mr. Hu. Do you remember that a few months ago, we went to the temporary settlement in the east of the city to organize a public welfare activity? Yes, we even sponsored Ms. Xiao Fanghua's martial arts refresher course to groom the good students who lost their homes.
"I want to ask, do you know anyone in that area?"
Meng Chao did not help Ms. Xiao Fanghua with her lessons on a whim.
Teaching a large number of citizens about their future martial arts was one of the best ways to earn contribution points.
Besides, Meng Chao was thinking about getting to know more future leaders. It would be best if he could take them in as lackeys.
However, when he searched through the memories of his previous life, Meng Chao noticed that many of the powerful people who would command the world in the future were children from the nine great cultivation families.
The children from cultivation families had endless cultivation resources and famous teachers to guide them. He did not need to do anything unnecessary, and he could not find a convenient way to get to know them either.
Meng Chao did not know the experiences of the future powerful people who came from poor families during their early days.
Besides, many of the people who wandered the Other World became famous by their nicknames. Meng Chao did not even know what their names were when they were young.
Coincidentally, Ms. Xiao Fanghua's martial arts refresher course gave him inspiration.
Through the martial arts refresher course, he could get to know the children who had more potential among the poor. At the same time he taught them how to cultivate, he could also bring them to participate in all sorts of competitions for stances, meditation, and martial arts. During the competitions, he could naturally get to know the geniuses from other regions. When the rare geniuses stood out, they would naturally enter Meng Chao's sight.
Hence, Meng Chao treated this matter with great importance.
Before he entered the wild to train, he asked Qin Hu to support the martial arts refresher course in the temporary settlement through Superstar and the Broken Star Club.
Qin Hu had not recovered his fighting strength yet.
He seemed to have gradually given up on this idea.
Instead, he devoted all his efforts to business and even his official career.
Superhumans might be the mainstay of Dragon City, but they were still powerful.
However, if 100% of the Survival Committee's councilors were Extraordinaires, it would clearly cause criticism.
In any case, there were some ordinary councilors in the Survival Committee.
Qin Hu was ambitious. He believed that with his experience, achievements, connections, and support from Superstar and the Broken Star Club, it would not be a pipe dream for him to become a politician one day.
If one wanted to be a member of parliament, one had to pay attention to one's personal image and be passionate about public welfare. It would be best if one appeared in front of the public from time to time.
Hence, he was very enthusiastic about solving the cultivation problem of the children who had lost their homes. Over the past few months, he often went to the temporary settlements. With his extravagant spending and forthright personality, he could call everyone his brother, and he got to know a lot of amazing people from all walks of life.
"Brother Wolf?"
Qin Hu mumbled, "I've never heard of him. He should be a nobody, but it's fine. I have quite a few good friends in that area. Give me five minutes, and I'll find out once I ask them."
