Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!Volume 1685

Meng Chao smelled the scent of a war of opinion behind the words exchanged on the Internet.

He had no doubt that the suspicions and criticisms directed at the nine mega corporations were all organized and planned attacks.

Perhaps one of the masterminds of this attack was none other than Lu Siya, whom he was monitoring closely.

Of course, as a wild banshee, Lu Siya understood better than anyone that the weapon of criticism could never defeat the criticism of weapons.

It was impossible for her to place all her hopes on so-called “public opinion.”

In the past few days, after investigating The Bright Light’s bombing day and night, she had held more than a dozen press conferences and public gatherings. She had further cemented her persona of “pleading for the people, not fearing violence, betraying her family, and fighting against the rich and powerful oligarchs to the end.” Meng Chao found out that Lu Siya had also done one more thing.

She had been actively contacting the Red Dragon Army.

Of course, Lu Siya had ample reasons to openly contact the Red Dragon Army.

First of all, an important part of the Azure Alliance included Broken Star Club and Battle God Palace.

The members of Broken Star Club were all mid-to low-level superhumans who had lost limbs. Many of them were veterans of the Red Dragon Army. Although they had been scattered throughout Dragon City, their relationship with the Red Dragon Army remained close.

Battle God Palace was an organization where the disciples of the Battle God, Lei Zongchao joined forces to carry out the Battle God’s will. The most important member, apart from Meng Chao, was Long Feijun, who was known as the Railway Gun.

Long Feijun was the representative of the Red Dragon Army’s young officers.

Many of Battle God Lei Zongchao’s disciples and even the orphans that Lei Zongchao had raised himself, had followed Long Feijun’s footsteps and joined the Red Dragon Army. After many years of hard work, they became the most important new force in the Red Dragon Army.

With these two layers of connections, it was reasonable for a large number of Red Dragon soldiers to join the Azure Alliance in their personal capacity. No one could stop them.

Meanwhile, The Bright Light’s explosion had involved crystal bombs and other weapons of mass destruction. It seriously threatened the safety of Dragon City’s airspace.

It was reasonable for the Red Dragon Army to not be indifferent but actively participate in the investigation. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

Nevertheless, Meng Chao always felt that things were not that simple.

The military representative who appeared beside Lu Siya probably did not just tag along to investigate The Bright Light’s explosion.

According to the intelligence gathered after Meng Chao returned to Dragon City, the Red Dragon Army had not made much of a move since their victory in the Monster War.

Recently, the Azure Alliance and the nine mega corporations had been at loggerheads, while the entire Dragon City had been in an uproar. Even then, the Red Dragon Army maintained a high degree of calm and restraint. Other than a few veterans and basic officers who joined the Azure Alliance in their personal capacity, the Red Dragon Army as a whole did not make a sound.

However, if one thought about it carefully, one would know that the current Red Dragon Army was at a crossroads.

Facing their own delicate and awkward situation, any Red Dragon Army soldier with dignity, ambition, and ideals would not be able to let others bully them without reacting.

That’s right. The current Red Dragon Army was in a very awkward situation.

To put it another way, any army in Earth’s conventional sense would be out of place in a world where superhumans could fight one against a hundred, move mountains and overturn seas, and decide victory and defeat with one hand.

When an army was no longer the strongest representative of the entire civilization and had become extremely weak due to its huge organization and complicated structure, what kind of ideals and glory could it have under the threat of a mysterious force? How much military budget could they win?

Moreover, the Red Dragon Army had not been a normal army when it was first established.

When Dragon City transmigrated, its army, which had a long history and sacred ideals, was sacrificed in the fierce battle against earthquakes, floods, zombies, and exotic beasts.

After that, the nine mega corporations established the Red Dragon Army as the vassal of the superhumans after the Blood Alliance’s collapse and the rebuilding of order.

From the very beginning, the Red Dragon Army’s combat mission had mainly been to defend the city, build fortifications, and defend trenches.

To put it more bluntly, the Red Dragon Army’s main mission had included fighting bloody battles in the inner parts of Dragon City with the sudden beast horde, using reinforced concrete as an engineering unit, expanding the area under Dragon City’s control, building trenches and blockhouses one after another until they connected to the advancing bases, and pouring their whole being into these advancing bases, which turned into death traps and slowed down the monsters’ pace.

Those had just been delay tactics, not elimination steps.

Since the Red Dragon Army could not destroy high-level monsters, only superhumans who had mastered the ability of heaven and earth could be the key to determining the battle’s outcome.

Under that battle mode, the weapons, equipment, organizational structure, and tactical concept of the entire Red Dragon Army had all been directed toward a purely defensive force. Similar to a garrisoned army, it was like a giant, clumsy, rough-skinned crustacean that was entrenched in various strategic points, passively waiting for the enemy’s arrival and then bitterly enduring until the superhumans came to support it.

As for perseverance, aggression, and looting… They were all affairs of the superhumans, or more precisely, the corporate warriors under the nine mega corporations’ command. They had nothing to do with the Red Dragon Army at all.

At the very least, in Meng Chao’s memories from his previous life, the elite force that he had accumulated for decades was almost wiped out due to a rare outbreak of spirit energy during the battle on Raging Waves Mountain Range. The Red Dragon Army was never able to recover or secure sufficient military budgets. They were never able to recruit sufficiently powerful superhumans to join them. As a result, they missed the golden period of development during the colonization war.

When the corporate warriors of the nine mega corporations led the Dragon City civilization to advance with great success and were labeled an “alternate natural disaster” by the natives, the Red Dragon Army remained a dusty vassal and supporting role until the apocalypse arrived. It was destroyed without any honor.

Truthfully, in the Dragon City of his previous life, the corporate armed forces of the nine mega corporations were the real armies.

The Red Dragon Army, on the other hand, was just like Picturesque Orchid Lake’s army of rat people, which could be consumed at will.

In this life, however, the situation had undergone a tremendous change.

The Red Radiance Jade lode hidden under Raging Waves Mountain did not experience a devastating explosion. Instead, it turned into “rain” full of abundant spirit energy, which fell continuously. It enable the Red Dragon Army, which was stationed around Raging Waves Mountain at that time to undergo a complete transformation.
