"That's right. I won't deny that I want to eat all the fragments of my mother's body and evolve into an even stronger and more perfect … ultimate carbon-based life form. Then, I'll attack the ancient people again, assuming that they still exist after billions of years of corrosion."
"Lu Siya" did not hesitate and readily admitted to her goal. Then, she spread her arms at Meng Chao. "But I think that this doesn't conflict with the goal of Earth transmigrators wanting to survive. In fact, we can help each other and help each other improve.
"Trust me, Meng Chao, even when the Monster War was at its most intense and even when Dragon City's railway guns blasted tens of thousands of monsters into mush, I never hated humans.
"No, it's not just humans. I never hated anyone who tried to destroy me or the living beings I tried to destroy.
"It's natural selection and survival of the fittest. We're all contestants in the evolution competition, and we follow the same rules of the game. We do our best to release the most brilliant light in our lives and try to become taller, faster, and stronger. That's all.
"To achieve my goal, I can summon a monster horde and try to devour Dragon City completely.
"I can also choose to let go of the past and work together with Dragon City wholeheartedly so that I can fuse perfectly with humans.
"I've never thought about completely destroying cute living beings like humans. Of course, I didn't do it out of kindness, but your performance in the Monster War won my respect. It also made me realize that your existence, your determination to forge ahead, your vigor, your changes, and your unpredictability can effectively make up for my lack of thinking and execution, so I can pour more energy and resources into the purest form of evolution.
"Dragon Citizens and the monster mastermind can become a perfect symbiotic civilization, just like Meng Chao and Lu Siya, who are the best partners in the Other World. There is no existence that can stop us from moving forward.
"And I can promise you that I won't interfere with the free will of humans and the direction of Dragon City's development. After all, you can think of things I can't think of, see the future I can't see, and do all sorts of shocking things that I can't believe. This has always been your greatest value, so how could I be stupid enough to destroy all of this?
"Stop hesitating. You don't have a choice!
"Even if it's as you say, and I'm really a demon, I'm the best of all demons.
"Alright, I can't prove that I'm the best demon, but at the very least, you have to admit that I'm the demon that Dragon Citizens are the most familiar with, right?
"Making a choice between a familiar Evil Demon and a completely unfamiliar Evil Demon isn't too difficult, right?
"You can reject me, or even try to destroy me. Even if you succeed, what then?
"Then, the fog will disappear, and Dragon City's civilization will have to face the countless Other World native civilizations outside Monster Mountain Range who are affected by Mother 02, Mother 03, and the countless mother body fragments.
"Are you sure that without my help, you can really withstand the surging attacks from Broodmother 02 to Broodmother 99?
"Don't think I'm trying to scare you.
"There is an extremely subtle magnetic resonance between all the fragments of the parent body.
"When a mother body fragment wakes up from its long slumber, its vitality magnetic field will be released in an endless stream, and it's as if it's the starting gun for the Gu rearing war or for the mother body to upgrade itself. All the mother body fragments will become active.
"Believe it or not, I can sense the incredibly hungry and excited vitality magnetic fields of a few of the mother body fragments. They've long since woken up and are near Monster Mountain Range. They're prepared to target, tear apart, and eat their own kind at any moment so that they can take a small step forward on the path of evolution.
"Meng Chao, are you sure that the normal citizens who are celebrating the victory of the Monster War and have relaxed their guard? The higher-ups of Dragon City who are fighting for power are all prepared to face the Other World natives who are even more barbaric, brutal, and evil than the monster civilization? Haha! Hahahaha! "
"Lu Siya" laughed fearlessly.
Her long green hair danced madly like a messy bamboo leaf.
Behind her, the Green Tide, the Blood Flowers, and the shrubs covered in poisonous thorns all rustled and danced in joy.
Meng Chao gritted his teeth so hard that they nearly bled.
If he had never experienced the real apocalypse.
He could have been like all the hot-blooded but ignorant youths and shouted heroic words that sounded like textbooks at Lu Siya. He could have said something like "humans are destined to open up their own path", and it would have been silly and cute.
But he had seen the apocalypse.
He knew that Lu Siya was not lying.
Regardless of whether she was a monster or a demon, regardless of whether she had lost all her humanity, regardless of what kind of heinous actions she would commit, at the very least, she did not lie about a single word about this matter.
The mother's self-upgrading was the truth behind the super war that swept through the entire Other World in his previous life!
It was easy to reject Lu Siya.
It was not impossible for her to not be able to harm Dragon City for the time being, even if she paid a devastating price while risking her own destruction.
But what about the Otherworld War?
What about "Matrix 02" to "Matrix 99" who were hiding behind the orcs, dwarves, elves, vampires, dragons, trolls, lizardmen, toadmen, gargoyles, undead knights, and the army of skeletons?
At that moment, no one in Dragon City knew better than Meng Chao just how terrifying the "locals" who seemed to still be living in the medieval era were.
Lu Siya keenly noticed Meng Chao's hesitation.
Her eyes lit up, and she was surprised and delighted.
"Meng Chao, I knew that you would believe and understand me!"
Her face lit up, and she looked like she was about to cheer. "I told Jin Qianxi the same thing before, but she's just a woman who's so stubborn that she's stupid. She insists on clinging to the outdated morals and so-called humanity from Earth.
"She would rather die with that pitiful 'humanity' than make a small change and search for a way for her people to survive.
"But I believe that you won't be as stupid as Jin Qianxi.
"Even though both of you love Dragon City and are willing to give up everything for Dragon City, compared to that silly girl, you're more ruthless, and you'll do anything to achieve your goals. You're also resolute, and you don't care about idle gossip.
"This makes me believe that as long as you can save Dragon City, you won't mind making a deal with the demon!"
Meng Chao narrowed his eyes.
He was embarrassed and angry, as if he had been seen through.
While he hesitated, the golden light in his field of vision suddenly flashed at a high frequency.
The reward for the Mystery of the Supernatural Entities was about to be calculated.
In just a few more seconds, his trump card would be formed!
Meng Chao perked up and pretended to be tempted, but he also looked hesitant. He snorted coldly and said, "Even if Dragon City really needs the Mother 01 to fight against an even grander and more brutal war, it doesn't mean that we need to work with you, much less accept your control.
"Right now, victory and initiative are clearly in the hands of humans. We've already occupied all of Hidden Fog, the sinkhole, and the monster nests. We have 99% of the active tissues in the Mother 01, so we can develop the two ruins on our own and continuously extract the technology, information, and power inside.
"Even if there are a lot of crucial information that you need to unlock and analyze, I believe that you, who just stole Big Sis Ya's body, aren't so strong that five Deity Realm superhumans won't be able to suppress you even if they work together?
"If you're really stronger than Deity Realm superhumans, you would have attacked a long time ago and suppressed me under your body so that you could do whatever you wanted. There's no way you would have explained so much patiently.
"Even though many of the older Deity Realm superhumans, including Lv Zhongqi, have been heavily injured or even died, we can still gather five Deity Realm superhumans who are fully on standby at any moment in Dragon City.
"Tell me, why can't I run away and ask them for help so that they can suppress you, tie you up, interrogate you, or even dissect you for research so that they can extract all your secrets from you? Why do I have to work with you and help you stir up trouble in Dragon City?"
"The reason is simple. You're too slow," Lu Siya said with a relaxed expression.
"With Dragon City's current organizational structure and development model, even the most callous and merciless of the nine great mega corporations has to consider most of the normal citizens' feelings and interests when they set up and carry out their strategies.
"And these normal citizens still cling to the outdated morals and so-called 'humanity' from Earth, just like that stupid woman, Jin Qianxi.
"Even though you've gone through more than half a century of chaos, bloody battles, and reconstruction, you don't seem to have realized that Earth no longer exists. Earth's civilization has fallen apart and is no more. All the Earthlings have gone to hell!
"Right now, you're a group of brand new humans with a brand new civilization. Naturally, you should build brand new morals and societal structures. Only then will you have the chance to survive in the brutal battlefield of the Other World and become the ultimate winners of the Evolutionary Tournament.
"If you can't completely understand this and carry it out, you'll remain like you are now and cling to your so-called 'humanity'. You'll have to take care of the feelings and interests of the weak people who are bound to be eliminated early in the Evolutionary Tournament and the ignorant, weak, and blind normal citizens. Then, Dragon City's civilization is bound to be like a giant with its feet stuck in mud. It won't be able to do anything and can only wait for death.
"Meng Chao, if I told you that there's still an incredibly powerful ancient power hidden in the depths of Ancient Ruins No. 2 and that I know the way to dig out and use it, but if you want to develop it quickly in just a few years, you'll need to sacrifice at least one million lives. Otherwise, you'll only be able to do it slowly for thirty to fifty years or even two hundred years. What will you choose?"
"What?"
Meng Chao asked instinctively. "You're lying! How could that be?!"
"Look, you don't even dare to answer my question."
"Lu Siya" smiled faintly. "Don't be ashamed. You're not the only one who can't answer my question. The leaders of the nine mega corporations and the commander of the Red Dragon Army can't answer my question. Even if they really want to use one million lives in exchange for powerful ancient power, they don't dare to say it. Whoever dares to say it is a crazed monster and a demon who has lost all humanity. They will be condemned by all and die without a cause.
"This is what I'm saying. With Dragon City's current model, it's impossible for us to win the Gu Raising War and become the ultimate winner of the Evolutionary Tournament. In the near future, I will die, you will die, and every Dragon Citizen will die. Everything is set in stone.
"If we want to stop the future destruction, we must first change Dragon City's model. We must change it to … for example, Blood Alliance's model."
