In the face of Bai Shan's question, Wild Wolf, Zhang Tie, and the Wild Wolves were silent.
Even Meng Chao knew that it was impossible.
The gangs in the lair might seem wild and untamed on the surface, but they were at the top of the gray food chain.
In truth, they were supported and restricted by the nine great mega corporations. Their survival was firmly controlled by the mega corporations.
The first time Meng Chao entered Golden Tooth Lair, Lu Siya had led the way to Poison Scorpion, which was supported by Sky Pillar Corporation.
The Poison Scorpion members were even more respectful to Lu Siya than they were to a real princess.
"The gangs are just the mega corporations' puppets and tools. They help the mega corporations do the dirty, tiring, and shady work that the mega corporations can't do. When they need to bear the responsibility, they will take the initiative to become the scapegoats. That's all."
Bai Shan continued smiling coldly. "Even the gang leader of Golden Tooth, the so-called Dragon City's Underground Emperor, Saber Jin Wanhao, is just a loyal dog kept by the mega corporations.
"Dragon City has plenty of Deity Realm superhumans who can do whatever they want and control an astronomical amount of war resources. Do you think that the gangs and the Underground Emperor can really stop them if they really want to solve the problem in the lair?
"But why would the Deity Realm superhumans who control the mega corporations want to solve the problem in the lair?
"Without the gangs, who would help these glamorous, sanctimonious fighters, heroes, guardians, and saviors to do dirty, tiring, and shady work? Where would they go to find cheap consumables like the villagers who are cheap and useful? Even if all of them died, they wouldn't be bothered by it?
"Even if Wild Wolves really surpass Golden Tooth and become the strongest gang in the lair, it's impossible for them to challenge the nine great mega corporations outside the lair.
"We only have two choices in front of us. We can either be wild and untamed, and the Deity Realm superhumans from the mega corporations will beat us up or even kill us, or we can bow down and become another dog of the mega corporations.
"Admit it, Wild Wolf. The current Dragon City is the world of the Deity Realm superhumans and mega corporations. If we don't bring in power from the outside world, we won't be able to overturn this unfair order on our own!"
"Are the power from the outside world monsters?"
Wild Wolf asked darkly. "Bai Shan, do you know that you're inviting a wolf into your house?!"
"I do, but we have no other choice," Bai Shan said calmly.
Bai Shan said calmly, "Under normal circumstances, luring a wolf into one's house is an extremely foolish act. But what if there's already a wolf in the house?
"If the wolf in the house has existed for decades and has been sucking our blood, eating our flesh, and gnawing on our bones, then sticking our flesh and blood on its body, gradually disguising itself as a dignified and righteous human being, then claiming that it is the owner of the house, that it is the one who has protected the house and prevented the jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards from invading from the outside. In order to continue protecting the house and reward its contributions, its act of gnawing on our flesh and blood is completely justified and reasonable. At least, it has no other choice. So, it will continue gnawing on us forever. What if that is the case?
"Since my mother and countless villagers were killed and eaten by the wolf in the house a long time ago, if I let another wolf in, or even all the jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards in, how bad could the ending be?"
"Aren't you afraid that Leprosy Village will be completely destroyed in the chaotic vortex?" Wild Wolf asked sternly.
"If the so-called order means that Leprosy Village has to quietly endure the oppression of the mega corporations, be continuously harmed, violated, and enslaved, and even when our shining corpses are burned to ashes, we won't be able to make a sound. Then, who says that chaos is definitely evil?
"That's why I'm looking forward to the arrival of chaos. It'll be for the best if Leprosy Village — no, the lair — no, all of Dragon City is in chaos. It's only then that the mega corporations and the intelligent monsters will both be injured, and we'll have the chance to launch a counterattack in the chaos."
"Have you ever thought about how many people will die in this chaos?"
Wild Wolf gritted his teeth. "Perhaps everyone in Leprosy Village will die!"
"So what? Look at ourselves and the villagers around us. Instead of living like deformed and ugly walking corpses, is an eternal and peaceful death really that unacceptable? If my mother didn't have to bear the responsibility of taking care of her children, I believe that she would have chosen to end her life a long time ago. "
Bai Shan's smile grew brighter, and her three eyes shone with a burning light. "Two paths have appeared in front of me, and they lead to two different futures.
"In the first future, all Dragon Citizens, including the villagers, will have to squeeze out every last drop of their flesh and blood to help the nine great mega corporations win against the monsters. Then, the rule of the mega corporations will become stable, and the rich people who control the mega corporations will become richer and stronger.
"Right now, a Deity Realm superhuman can fight against one hundred or one thousand normal people. At that time, the superhumans who have surpassed Deity Realm will be able to fight against ten thousand, one hundred thousand, and one million people!
"In this future, no one will be able to fight against the rule of the superhumans who are above Deity Realm. Only the superhumans and their mega corporations will be able to define justice, evil, order, chaos, loyalty, betrayal, morality, and civilization. We and our descendants will forever be curled up in illegal workshops filled with poisonous gas and dirty water. We will be reduced to spare parts made of flesh and blood in the rumbling production lines of the mega corporations.
"At that time, there won't be anything like monsters that can challenge their rule, and we'll never be able to enjoy endless good times. The only thing we'll be able to wait for might be the arrival of the apocalypse.
"In the second future, some traitors of human civilization and the monsters' puppets will hold us back, and the monsters will win. They will kill all the peerless fighters, destroy the mega corporations, and destroy all of Dragon City. All Dragon Citizens, regardless of whether they are the glorious rich people who stand high above the masses from the nine great cultivation families or the lowliest deformed children in Leprosy Village, will face the only fair thing in the world, and that is death.
"Let me tell you, even if I have a chance to choose again … No, even if I have ten or one hundred chances, I will choose the second future without hesitation!"
"Bai Shan, you're really … mad …" Wild Wolf's voice trembled.
"Perhaps. In such a crazy Other World, who can resist the urge to go crazy?"
Bai Shan seemed to have thought of something interesting. She smiled and said, "Did you know? When those people came to me with the Deification Capsules and told me a lot of lies to bewitch me, I didn't listen to a single word. I wasn't interested in the Deification Capsules that can allow normal people to temporarily obtain supernatural powers and stand above superhumans.
"The only thing I'm interested in is that the Deification Capsules can activate the genes that have been sleeping in the depths of human cells for billions of years. It can allow humans to show some of the characteristics of their ancestors and turn them into strange, monstrous, and ugly forms.
"That's why I want to spray the Deification Capsules all over Dragon City.
"I want to turn all Dragon Citizens and all the humans who claim themselves to be healthy, normal, and true humans into deformed and ugly forms like us. I want them to taste the pain that the Leprosy Village villagers have gone through for decades.
"If tens of millions of Dragon Citizens become deformed and ugly, at that time, humans will be no different from humans, and we'll be able to walk out openly and bask in the brightest sunlight, right?
"Even if we can only bathe for one second and Dragon City is destroyed by monsters after that second, it's fine.
"After all, before this, we've never bathed for even one second!"
She was like a banshee born from the eternal flames in the depths of hell. She laughed happily.
"Bai Shan, looks like you've been completely blinded by hatred," Wild Wolf said with a sigh.
Wild Wolf sighed. "The old village chief told us many times that we can hate the gangs and mega corporations, but we mustn't let our hatred completely control us. Otherwise, all our judgments and actions will lead to greater tragedies.
"If you still remember the old village chief taking care of us in the past and helping us awaken to our strength, if you still remember all the people in Leprosy Village, including the children whose lives shouldn't be decided by your hatred, if you still remember the oath we swore when we formed Wild Wolves in the past, then tell us the whereabouts of your accomplices.
"Where are your accomplices, the robbers who created the Deification Capsules, hiding? What's their next step? Where is the abnormal beast behind them? Tell me, Bai Shan, tell me!"
"It's useless …"
Bai Shan's gaze froze again. She looked as if she was crying and laughing at the same time. "First, we only communicate with one another, and those people are cunning. They often move around, so I don't know where they are right now.
"Second, it's already too late to stop them now. They should have already started their next step, right?"
Wild Wolf's pupils shrank swiftly. "What? How did they know?"
"How did they know that I've already been exposed?"
Bai Shan smiled faintly and turned to look at Meng Chao. "Did you think that once you captured the rat I used to communicate with you, you could cut off all information and everything would be fine?
"But you don't know that 'no information' is also a very important piece of information in certain situations.
"I made a promise with those people that once in a while, even if everything went smoothly, I would send them a rat.
"This rat doesn't have any metal tubes in it, so it naturally doesn't carry any information. At first glance, it's just a rat that can be found everywhere in the lair. It's just that its ears are rather big, and the edges of its ears are incomplete.
"In truth, the incomplete edges of its ears represent a unique code that cannot be imitated. As long as they see this rat, those people will be certain that I'm safe and follow their original plan to carry out their next step.
"Since they haven't found any new rats for a long time, it's only natural that they know that I've been captured by you. There's a high possibility that I'll tell them everything, so they will immediately change the contents and rhythm of their plan.
