The 36,000 pores on Bloody Slaughter Gao Ye's body released incredibly invasive spirit energy. They were like gaping mouths that enveloped Meng Chao's entire body.
With each word he said, his spirit energy crashed into Meng Chao's vitality magnetic field, and like an invisible hyena, it tore at Meng Chao's flesh.
Meng Chao's spirit energy spun rapidly and gathered into spirit energy that surrounded him to form an indestructible shield.
The second round of battle between the two sides had already begun at this second.
Meng Chao was not intimidated by Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang's evil demeanor.
"Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang was a famous ace hunter in the hunter circle in the past. He killed countless monsters," Meng Chao said coldly.
"I didn't expect that you would end up as the monsters' lapdog."
He did not think that he could convince Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang with just a glib tongue.
After all, this peerless criminal was completely different from Lin Chuan and Gao Ye.
However, Meng Chao wanted to beat around the bush and see whether Gao Yang knew that the mastermind was the monster civilization.
If he knew, he might be able to get more information about the Vortex from him.
At the same time, Meng Chao wanted to give the impression that he was heavily injured and had to use his glib tongue to stall for time so that he could control his injuries.
In any case, after the explosion, all of Leprosy Village and most of Golden Tooth Lair were affected by powerful spirit energy magnetic field interference at all frequencies.
Not only were Meng Chao's neural information transmission chips and communicators destroyed.
Most of his communicators might have been severely affected and could not be used.
Meng Chao could not call for reinforcements from outside the lair.
It was also impossible for Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang to contact the Vortex.
The underground was a battlefield that belonged only to the two of them. Before the victor was decided and the life and death of them were decided, no one would disturb them.
Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang was not surprised or angry when Meng Chao said that he was the monster's lapdog.
He only chuckled and swallowed the last half of the ear. He licked the blood on his lips and said calmly, "You misunderstand. I became a hunter because I wanted to enjoy the pleasure of killing. It doesn't matter whether my prey is a human or a monster.
"In truth, when I first killed a human, I realized that compared to most monsters, humans are better prey.
"Humans have more developed brains than most monsters, and they have more cunning intellect. They can also execute more complicated strategies. The sense of accomplishment from hunting humans is something that cannot be compared to hunting monsters.
"Furthermore, humans have rich emotions.
"When the humans thought that they had escaped from my pursuit, they felt joy after surviving a disaster. When the humans thought that they had surrounded me and were about to kill me, they felt shock and fear when they stepped into my trap. There was also the courage to grit their teeth and swing their sabers at me even though they knew that they were no match for me. These are things that most monsters don't have.
"Believe me, once you've killed a human once, you'll never be able to go back.
"What a joke. You call me Bloody Slaughter and call yourselves hunters, but you don't know that those who only know how to hunt monsters are at most butchers. Only those who hunt humans are true hunters!"
This guy was completely mad.
Meng Chao was unmoved. He said coldly, "Unfortunately, even though you're a true hunter, you're still being beaten up by us butchers who kill pigs and sheep. You're running around like a rat in a sewer.
"In the end, you could only crawl under the feet of the monsters you hunted in the past. You had to bend your knees and betray the interests of humans in exchange for a bit of power from the monsters. Then, you could strut around once more.
"Heh. You're a cowardly rat. How can you be considered a hunter? At most, you're just a hunting dog raised by monsters!"
Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang did not deny his relationship with monsters.
He was not angered by Meng Chao's words either.
He just said, "I'm the hunting dog of monsters. How much better are you than me? Aren't you still the hunting dogs of the nine great mega corporations?"
He thought that Meng Chao was the same as Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong and other veteran hunters who were hired by Sky Pillar, Universe, Soaring Dragon, and Thundercloud.
Of course, the current state of Dragon City was indeed created by the nine great mega corporations and tens of millions of citizens.
The nine great mega corporations, the nine great cultivation families, and their creators, the strongest Deity Realm superhumans in Dragon City, had a firm grip over Dragon City's civilization. Their tentacles extended into all sorts of industries in Dragon City.
While Meng Chao's family's Superstar was progressing smoothly, they received investments from the nine great mega corporations through Lu Siya and the others.
After Superstar took over Spirit Creations Creatures, aside from its connections with the abnormal beast research department, it was also thanks to the nine great mega corporations' help that it was able to get a lot of lucrative deals.
Meng Chao had never hidden the fact that he had received help from a lot of powerful people while he was progressing rapidly.
But if he equated riding on the coattails of powerful humans with becoming a monster's lapdog, it was just too laughable.
"Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang, is there no difference between humans and monsters in your eyes?"
Meng Chao gritted his teeth. "We have a civilization, and you should be a member of this civilization!"
"Civilization? Ha! Civilization!"
Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang widened his eyes as though he had heard the funniest joke in the world. Then, he spat out a mouthful of saliva mixed with minced meat in disdain and sneered. "The so-called 'civilization' is just an illusion after one is full.
"As long as the fiercest of lions and tigers are full, they might not kill cows and sheep that are close to them. And the kindest of humans will turn into the fiercest of bandits after starving for three days and three nights. They will aim their blades at their own kind.
"Perhaps in your eyes, I'm a heinous criminal who can't be saved.
"But you don't know and have never seen what true evil is.
"Tell me, have you ever seen an amiable granny and an innocent girl tear at each other like wild beasts for half a bottle of dirty rainwater and tear each other's throats?
"Tell me, have you ever seen a woman do anything for a man for half a steamed bun, and a man is willing to kill anyone for a woman for half a steamed bun?
"Tell me, have you ever seen groups of starving people? Because hunger and despair have invaded their brains, they can only eat a lot of dirt to deceive their stomachs. In the end, they can't digest it, and they die from bloating. Some of them even tear their stomachs from their navels.
"Tell me, have you ever seen a zombie appear in a settlement, and the other settlements are afraid that the zombie virus will wreak havoc on them, so they use napalm to burn all the survivors in the settlement to death?
"Tell me, have you ever seen a lot of normal people curl up underground in shelters that are like insect nests because of hunger, sickness, and zombie attacks? They grit their teeth and don't dare to make a single sound. But the powerful gather a lot of resources, and it's not for the weak to survive, but for their own cultivation so that they can continuously increase their cultivation realms and expand their forces of power.
"Tell me, have you ever seen a lot of normal people turn into incomplete skeletons, and the powerful people who ignore their lives and fight to monopolize resources become stronger? In the end, they put on a shiny coat called mega corporations for their forces of power, and these powerful people turn into the creators of the Survival Committee. They become sanctimonious people."
Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang's voice was incredibly ghastly and strange.
He was clearly standing in front of Meng Chao, and there was an entire ruin between them.
But his voice sounded like it was whispering into Meng Chao's ears.
His gaze seemed to be able to pierce through Meng Chao's flesh and bones to pierce his brain, blood vessels, and nerves.
"You're smart, and you're young. You're so young that you've never seen true evil, which is why you still believe in justice and so-called civilization," Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang continued.
Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang continued. "But if you had just transmigrated to the Other World and lived in that bloody era where viruses wreaked havoc, zombies ran amok, order was broken, and lawless, you would have struggled all the way to this day and seen countless truly evil things. You would have also seen countless truly evil people turn into the rulers of Dragon City. Then, you would have been the same as me. You wouldn't have believed in morality, law, justice, or civilization.
"Now, I only believe in one thing, and that's power.
"As long as you have absolute power, you can turn black into white. Evil can be disguised as justice. The cold and merciless gang leaders who monopolized resources in the past can become veteran politicians of the Survival Committee and VIPs of the Supernatural Tower.
"I will temporarily work together with anyone who can help me obtain greater power, and I will kill anyone who stands in my way of becoming stronger. Just like that, I will kill and become stronger. If I'm lucky and don't die, perhaps one of these days, I will be able to kill my way to the highest realm above Deity Realm. "At that time, the Supernatural Tower might remove the bounty on my head, and the Survival Committee might even invite me back with great fanfare to kill monsters and protect human civilization. Haha! Hahahaha! "
He laughed in a slightly deranged manner.
"What if you're unlucky and die today?"
Meng Chao raised Bloody Soul, which was connected to his arm inch by inch.
"Then, at the very least, I'll die for myself, and I'll be in complete control of my own fate!"
An incredibly brutal light shone in Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang's eyes.
His Tiger Fang Saber also released a fierce saber glare.
The ruins between them instantly crumbled.
The rebars, iron nails, shattered stones, and other sharp items that formed the ruins were swept by spirit energy like bullets. In an instant, they filled the entire space.
And at the moment the saber glare dazzled Meng Chao's eyes, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang vanished from in front of him.
He was so fast that he looked like he could teleport in the dark.
His Tiger Fang Saber was just a feint. His real body instantly circled behind Meng Chao and launched a silent attack with his shadowless saber.
