"I see."
Meng Chao's smile grew stranger, and he asked, "Just because of that?"
"There's also her personality," Su Lun said smugly.
"She's the most outstanding person among the younger generation in Dragon City, but also the most difficult enemy to deal with. I've researched Meng Chao, Lu Siya, Shen Yupeng, and the others' personalities, and I have a deep understanding of their styles and weaknesses.
"Lu Siya said that Meng Chao is a person who has a strong desire to attack and would rather die with her so that he can have the initiative firmly in his hands.
"In truth, since Lu Siya shares the same interests as him, isn't she the same type of person?
"Lu Siya is famous for being ambitious among the rich people. She will do anything to achieve her goals. From a certain perspective, she's even more terrifying than Meng Chao. After all, Meng Chao's cunning and sinister nature is limited to a real battlefield, while Lu Siya's ambitions and methods can be used in many areas, including the business world.
"Over the past two years, she helped her father climb to the throne of power in Sky Pillar Minerals, and from that, I can tell that the Queen Bee definitely lives up to her name.
"And with her father's Sky Pillar Minerals supporting her, she has been recruiting people nonstop over the past half a year and stirring up trouble. She can't stop it now.
"When such an ambitious woman heard that her closest comrade, who is also her partner in the brand, betrayed Dragon City, her first thought was to sacrifice herself to save her own life.
"A normal person might make such a choice and cut ties with Meng Chao completely.
"But Queen Bee Lu Siya wouldn't be so conservative.
"Besides, if she did that, she would leave behind a fatal problem. I, Phantom Bear Xiong Wei, and many of the gang members already know the truth. Even if she managed to hide it for a while, there's no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. As time passes, the news will definitely spread, and those with ulterior motives will use it against Lu Siya.
"I can vaguely sense that this woman's desire for power is great. Even the entire Sky Pillar Corporation might not be able to satisfy her appetite. Would she allow herself to leave behind such a huge weakness in the hands of the lair citizens before she achieves her ambitions?
"Based on these two points, I believe that Lu Siya didn't completely believe that Meng Chao betrayed Dragon City.
"Her goal in entering the lair is to personally investigate the matter. As long as there's even the slightest bit of doubt and even the tiniest bit of hope to save Meng Chao, she will definitely do whatever it takes to protect him!"
"No wonder …"
"Meng Chao" nodded with a contemplative expression. He cast a glance at the crystal saber on the ground and said, "You can see through their trap."
"If I can't even see through such a clumsy trap, then I deserve to be caught by them."
Su Lun smiled faintly and said, "I know that many crystal weapons have certain requirements on the user's realm. Basically, the higher the grade of the crystal and monster materials, the stronger the spirit energy contained in them, and the stronger the sealed spirit energy magnetic field, the higher the requirements on the user's realm.
"Many of the weapons can only be used by Heaven Realm superhumans or even Deity Realm superhumans.
"If your realm isn't high enough and you activate your vitality magnetic field to control the weapon, you'll end up like a three-year-old swinging a saber and injuring yourself.
"Lu Siya thought that she was putting on a show with the real Meng Chao, and her goal was simple. The crystal saber had an offensive spirit energy magnetic field that a low-grade superhuman would definitely not be able to activate.
"If I could swing this crystal saber and release an unstoppable saber glare, it would mean that my realm far surpassed that of a powerless military adviser.
"If that was the case, Meng Chao could tell Lu Siya that I've been hiding my strength and that I'm the traitor with ulterior motives.
"But she didn't expect that I wouldn't fall for it and only used thirty percent of my spirit energy to activate the crystal saber. Just as I expected, not only did I not activate the offensive spirit energy magnetic field sealed inside, I even suffered a backlash from the saber, which further proved the 'truth' that my fighting strength is only average.
"Lu Siya might have believed Meng Chao's words a long time ago. She didn't expect that I would be so weak.
"You should have seen her dumbfounded expression at that time. It was really interesting. Unfortunately, you'll never be able to see it."
He shrugged and could not help but laugh.
"That's right. Those two idiots thought that they could solve the battle of Raging Waves, the case of the murderous pets in Blessed Paradise, and the ambush on Noble Descent Hotel with a little bit of cleverness and luck, so their lives would be smooth and they would be able to turn misfortune into blessing? They're really stupid! "
"Meng Chao" cackled a few times and suddenly stared at Su Lun with a cold gaze. "But you're also very stupid. Aren't you afraid that the adulterous couple will fly into a rage out of humiliation? Even if they don't have any proof, they'll kill you and destroy your corpse to get rid of all evidence?"
Su Lun shuddered when "Meng Chao" stared at him fiercely. He quickly said, "They won't. I knew that the adulterous couple was putting on a show a long time ago. I wanted to leave, but I noticed that you're not the real Meng Chao, which is why I took the initiative to show up and work with you!"
"Oh?"
"Meng Chao" frowned and asked with a dark expression, "Are there any flaws in my disguise?"
"No. Sir, your disguise is naturally flawless. But since there are fires everywhere and smoke everywhere, the temperature here is too high, so …" Su Lun quickly explained.
"Meng Chao" understood.
He extended a finger and wiped his face gently. A semi-transparent sticky liquid appeared on his finger, and he rubbed it against his fingertip.
"Heh …"
He chuckled darkly. "Fortunately, that stupid woman doesn't know."
"That's right. No matter how smart the Queen Bee is, she wouldn't have expected that the person putting on a show with her would turn into you without anyone noticing," Su Lun said with a smile.
Su Lun smiled. "And your goal in continuing to pretend to be Meng Chao and lurking around Lu Siya is self-evident. No matter what Lu Siya's true goal is in the lair, she represents the outside world and the attitude of the nine great mega corporations and the Survival Committee.
"If Lu Siya is assassinated by Meng Chao in the lair, the communication bridge between the outside world and the lair will be completely destroyed. Everything that happens next will be irreversible, and the lair will head toward chaos.
"Speaking of which, Lu Siya is a Spirit Sensor and is very familiar with Meng Chao. It won't be easy for you to deceive her, especially when you can't reveal even a hint of killing intent. Otherwise, there's a high chance that all your efforts will go to waste, and she will notice that someone is pretending to be Meng Chao.
"That's why I took the initiative to jump out and divert Lu Siya's attention so that I can help you. I hope that this didn't disrupt your overall plan."
Su Lun lowered his head.
He seemed to be respectful, but in truth, he was smug.
"Well done. If you hadn't attracted her attention, I wouldn't have been able to get rid of that stupid woman so cleanly."
"Meng Chao" smiled and continued. "Aside from Lu Siya, how are the preparations for the other things on your side?"
"Everything is ready. We just need something," Su Lun said.
"Aside from Phantom Bear Xiong Wei, I've already gathered all the higher-ups of the gangs in the VIP room at the top of the audience seats in Mutual Gold Coliseum.
"Right now, there are flames everywhere in Mutual Gold Coliseum. The flames, heatwaves, and smoke are all heading upwards. Before long, the audience seats and VIP rooms will be enveloped by poisonous smoke.
"To ensure their safety, the 'internal air circulation' system has been activated in the VIP rooms where the gang leaders are. The air they breathe is provided by the ventilation pipes, and the ventilation pipes are naturally controlled by me. They have to breathe whatever gas I want them to breathe.
"And a group of former Reaper Squad members who can take Deification Capsules at any moment to increase their fighting strength by several times are already in position. When the gang leaders notice that they're poisoned and have sucked in too much powerful anesthetic gas, they'll circulate their qi to get rid of the poison. Then, our people will rush in and kill them all in one go.
"Also, we've already planted our people in the squads surrounding Leprosy Village. As long as a spark appears between the villagers and the gang members, I'm confident that I can cause the entire situation to explode.
"Once the gangs are leaderless and the villagers charge forward madly, I'll have temporary command over all the armed forces in the lair, and it won't be difficult for me to turn the lair into a sea of fire.
"And when millions of citizens in the lair and the areas around it are badly burned, their eyes, skin, throats, and respiratory tracts will be badly burned, damaged, infected, and their immune systems will be on the verge of collapse. At that time, the zombie virus, Blood Flower spores, and Deification Capsules will bring out their most terrifying destructive power and spread chaos from the lair to all of Dragon City!"
"…"
The terrifying scene Su Lun described caused "Meng Chao" to fall silent for a long time.
He sucked in a deep breath, and the savage and cold presence on "Meng Chao's" face suddenly disappeared.
"Seriously …"
He was a little terrified, as if this was the first time he heard about this plan. He gasped in amazement. "It's a plan to end the family line!"
Su Lun's smile froze.
"Wh-What did you say?"
He suddenly felt that something was not quite right.
Wait …
Su Lun's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of two needles. He stared dumbfoundedly at a corner shrouded in black smoke not too far away.
The broken walls let out rustling sounds. Suddenly, as if under the control of some mysterious power, the shattered stones and concrete gathered together and turned into dozens of lively stone snakes.
The dozens of stone snakes were like dozens of arms that scooped something out of the ruins. Then, they intersected with each other and formed a threatening throne.
Lu Siya, who had a hole in her chest armor and should have died a long time ago, sat on the throne and stared at Su Lun with great interest.
"Red Brows Su Lun …" Lu Siya said with a grin.
"You should really take a piss and look at yourself right now. If you don't look at such a brilliant expression, you'll never be able to see it again."
