Chapter 827: Advance! Toward the Deepest Part of the Other World!
This question was Meng Chao’s specialty.
Even if Shao Zhengyang did not ask him, he was prepared to find an opportunity to have a good chat with the Red Dragon Army’s number one expert.
However, the other party was, after all, a high-ranking military bigshot. Before speaking freely, Meng Chao still wanted to test the other party’s thoughts.
“Now, many people feel that the Monster War is over. Against the biochemical attacks such as the zombie virus and the Blood Flower spores, we have vaccines and special drugs. We can even absorb more advanced biochemical technology from the monster civilization’s legacy and ‘turn waste into treasure.’ We can mix the zombie virus and the Blood Flower spores into a new type of gene medicine to speed up the cultivation of superhumans.”
Meng Chao said, “After working hard for decades, I can finally stop and catch my breath. I can put my weapons in the warehouse and let go of the south mountain. Once again, the strategic focus of Dragon City civilization has shifted to production, construction and economic development.”.
“Uncle Shao, do you think so too?”
This was indeed a popular opinion on the internet.
Dragon City’s civilization was like a highly tense person who had been struggling in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood for decades and had long suffered from mass post-traumatic syndrome.
The monster civilization was like a huge mountain that had been firmly pressing down on people’s heads for decades, making all the citizens of Dragon City feel the threat of death every moment.
One day, the huge mountain was completely overturned by the people. The nerves that had been tense for decades suddenly relaxed.
It was inevitable that people would be overjoyed, but they would also feel a sense of laziness.
“Stupid! Extremely Stupid! Such shortsightedness is simply courting death!”
Shao Zhengyang’s face was solemn as he said in a very serious tone, “Although the monster war ended with the great victory of our Dragon City civilization, the threat to the survival of the human race did not disappear.
“From a certain perspective, when we come into contact with a broader world, the threat to our survival will continue to escalate. It is very likely that we will encounter an enemy that is stronger than the monsters!”
Meng Chao was delighted.
He did not expect that the higher-ups of Dragon City were so clear-headed. They did not need to be reminded by him to realize the terror of the Other World.
He took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement. “Enemies that are stronger than monsters?”
“That’s right, Meng Chao. These days, you have come into contact with a large amount of ancient information from the brain. It can be said that you have already surpassed many experts from the ancient ruins’ research center and become one of the people who understand the ancient civilization the most in Dragon City.”
“Then, you should know very well that the ancient civilization is not a regional civilization. In terms of the Other World alone, the footprints of the Ancients have spread to the ends of the Earth on this planet.
“They have built magnificent, star-studded cities beyond the oceans, deep valleys, mountains, plains, underground crevices, and even the atmosphere.
“Every ancient city built a complicated and sophisticated system of spirit energy utilization based on the special topography, which contained the mysterious power and extraordinary technology of the ancient civilization.
“Although the glorious cities were all turned into relics after the beast horde’s assault and the bombardment of the space-based orbital weapons, the ancient civilization still had a long way to go.
“However, even if they were only relics, they could still provide the inheritors billions of years later with inexhaustible nutrients, nourish all kinds of civilizations, and set foot on the path of the Ancients in pursuit of the glory of the ancient era.
“The Ruins No. 1 under Dragon City and Ruins No. 2 in the Hidden Mist Domain are far from all the legacies left by the ancients.
“There are at least dozens of relics of a certain scale in the entire Other World.
“If other carbon-based intelligent beings discover these relics, it is very likely that they will be able to obtain the ancient era’s heritage and build their own civilization just like us!”
Meng Chao’s heart was beating wildly.
Shao Zhengyang’s words meant that he had changed the future again.
Due to the butterfly effect that he had stirred up, the higher-ups of Dragon City were many years ahead of their previous life. They had a clearer understanding of the ecological environment and civilization level of the Other World.
Naturally, they could make more accurate judgments and reasonable decisions.
Meng Chao swallowed his saliva and said, “Uncle Shao, do all the Deity Realm experts now believe that there are other carbon-based intelligent life forms in the Other World, or even... civilizations?”
“This is a high probability event.”
Shao Zhengyang explained, “The ecosystem of a habitable planet is an inseparable whole. Since everything on Monster Mountain Range has revived and is thriving, and the spirit energy is so dense that it can allow carbon-based intelligent life forms to cultivate to the level where they can fly through the sky, burrow through the Earth, and split open mountains and rocks, the other places in the Other World will not be too different.
“It is unlikely that the entire Other World is a hell on Earth where volcanoes erupt, dust flies everywhere, and the air is filled with the strong smell of sulfur. Only Monster Mountain Range is a lively paradise, right?
“The experts and scholars of your agricultural university have conducted in-depth research on the genetic level of all kinds of monsters and etherealized plants. They have determined that many low-level monsters such as snakes, insects, rats, and ants have not been modified by the mother. Instead, they have evolved to the level they are today after tens of millions of years.
“From this, it can be seen that the entire Other World has become a paradise for carbon-based life at least tens of millions of years ago.
“After such a long period of evolution and such a natural environment with abundant spirit energy, there are ancient legacies hidden underground everywhere. The monsters that look weird have received the most advanced genetic modification in the ancient times and have been injected with the power of the mother and the Ancients.
“Is it strange to develop a brand-new civilization?”
“Yes, I think so too!”
Meng Chao could not help but nod his head in excitement, “There must be more civilizations in the Other World. Even if they are not more advanced than our Dragon City civilization on the surface, they possess mysterious and destructive power that is enough to drag us into the territory they are most familiar with and defeat us with their abundant experience!
“Therefore, we must not let our guard down. We must not treat the victory of the Monster War as the ultimate victory without any worries!
“What do you mean by ‘put the weapons in the warehouse and let the horses loose on the south mountain? It’s not just stupid. It’s a fallacy of destroying the country and wiping out the species!”
Shao Zhengyang stared at Meng Chao deeply.
He could clearly sense his anger and anxiety.
He could not help but be filled with admiration and affection for the young man who was exceptionally clear-headed.
“I knew it. Old Lei was right about the person, and I was right about the person, too. The future of Dragon City really depends on your generation to fight, defend, and save.”
Shao Zhengyang said, “The speculation of the Red Dragon Army is that there are likely to be creatures that are stronger, more brutal, more collective, and better at using spirit energy than the monsters that we have seen in the wider world outside Monster Mountain Range, which is the upgraded version of the monsters.
“Or perhaps, the intelligent creatures that are not as strong as the monsters but have built up an intricate social system and have grasped the first step of civilization and have armies, leaders, and beliefs are the weaker version of the ‘ancients’.
“Either way, they are not easy to deal with.
“We don’t know why they have not discovered Dragon City’s existence for more than half a century.
“Maybe it’s the mist formed by the space ripples, like a layer of impenetrable defense shield — a crystal shield similar to an ancient city that has always been protecting us.
“Maybe it’s because the civilization outside hasn’t developed to the point of dominating the entire planet yet, and our luck is better, so we narrowly escaped the disaster.
“But good luck won’t always follow us.
“We have never been a civilization that relied on luck to survive.
“The mist that shrouded Dragon City and Monster Mountain Range is about to dissipate.
“The speed of the mist dispersing is gradually accelerating, especially after the mother’s death.
“It seems that the mist is not only a space ripple, but also a ‘protective shield’ that the mother created for itself by manipulating the magnetic field of life and changing the magnetic field of the planet after the second awakening so that it can swallow the civilization of mankind without interference and repair more living tissues to survive the most dangerous period of weakness.
“In the most extreme case, the dense fog will completely disappear within a year and a half.
“By then, Dragon City will be completely intact and exposed to all intelligent creatures and powerful life forms in the entire Other World.
“Even if they haven’t developed a reconnaissance satellite network that covers the entire world, as long as they have the ability to fly at high altitude, they will be able to see our city at a glance.
“As soldiers, we are used to thinking in the worst case scenario.
“In the worst case scenario, after a year and a half, the Dragon City civilization, which has transmigrated here for just over half a century and is incompatible with other worlds, will be besieged by the indigenous civilizations that have been rooted here for thousands of years.
“The end of the Monster War is just the beginning of an even larger, more soul-stirring, and magnificent epic war.
“Even if the indigenous civilizations that had not developed artificial satellites and could not control the entire world could only have the technological level and war potential of the Earth’s civilization in the eighteenth or nineteenth centuries, or even the Middle Ages.
“However, their numbers were definitely ten or even a hundred times more than ours. It was also as you said, Meng Chao, that they controlled the power that could destroy the world with the spirit energy’s help and the ancient era’s legacy.
“We shouldn’t be hoping that there are no existences as powerful as deities and Apocalyptic Beasts in such a vast foreign world.
“If such a powerful existence infiltrates Dragon City from the indigenous civilization to learn the inside story and wreak havoc, it will undoubtedly be a devastating blow to our civilization. It will also destroy the foundation that the martyrs and compatriots built with their blood for more than half a century.
“If we want to avoid the terrible situation of being beaten passively, we can only strike first and take the initiative to attack.
“Even if a new war is going to break out, it should not be fought on Monster Mountain Range. Instead, we should burn the flames of war outside Monster Mountain Range and into the depths of the Other World, as far away from Dragon City as possible.
“The ‘torrent of steel, sweeping across the Other World was once a slogan that inspired people in the darkest moment.
“The slogan was just a slogan. In fact, no one had thought so far ahead at that time.
“But now, after we have found out the truth about the Other World and the ancient realm, we are marching forward. We are marching toward the deepest part of the Other World. From the slogan, it has become the only way for our civilization to survive
