Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 1747
1747 Swift and Decisive
“Did-Did a war just take place here?”
When the superhumans from different forces in Dragon City finally arrived at the scene of the Golden Roc’s explosion, even the iron-blooded generals who had survived hundreds of battles were deeply shocked by the incredible scene before them.
In front of them, the smoke and the blast caused by the violent explosion were gathered and condensed by an invisible force. They were like colorful, frozen waves that spread out in concentric circles.
The hundreds of armored airships that made up the Golden Roc had either been blown to pieces or torn apart. Their air sacs had all dried up, and they were lying on the ground as if they had been peeled off from their flesh.
The entire land seemed to have just experienced a carpet bombing that lasted a day and a night.
The steel plates used for the armored airships’ landing were either melted or left with shocking, unfathomable holes by the cannonballs and the burning wreckage that fell from the sky.
Intense smoke was still popping up from the depths of the holes, like twisted plants that constituted a weird jungle.
A lot of debris fell to the ground, but they had been burned by high-temperature flames, which turned their original form into garbage that resembled cow dung.
If one looked carefully, one would see that dozens of bloody people with broken skin and bruises were “embedded” in the middle of this garbage.
Their skin and flesh had been melted by the scorching hot garbage. Although their bleeding had stopped for the time being, they could not break free from the cage of intertwining debris.
“Who did this? Who could be so ruthless?”
The corners of the superhumans’ eyes twitched, and they were furious.
They did not know who was torturing the crew members of the Golden Roc in such a cruel way in broad daylight.
To their surprise, several hundred staff members of the Golden Roc were sitting or lying in relatively safe places on the periphery of the burning battlefield.
Based on their attire, they were either engineers, ordinary workers, or maintenance personnel.
Although they were badly battered, still in shock, and confused, they had not been injured in any vital areas or tortured.
It was as if someone had specifically rescued them from an armored airship that was spiraling down before sending them safely to the ground.
They were all crew members of the Golden Roc, so why was there such a disparity in treatment?
The superhumans exchanged looks, unable to understand.
However, when overwhelming pressure spread out from the middle of the smoke, mist, and blast, hitting them hard like a tsunami, they soon focused on the center of the furiously burning swirl.
“That’s…”
In that instant, all the superhumans saw what they thought was an illusion.
It was as if they were seeing a towering Apocalyptic Beast appear in front of them with the rising mushroom cloud.
No, it was not even an ordinary Apocalyptic Beast, but a full-metal Apocalyptic Beast composed of a certain kind of liquid metal substance that was flowing with brilliant but ever-changing colors!
Deafening alarms rang in the superhumans’ minds, and a bone-chilling cold spread from his neck to the soles of his feet.
Many people subconsciously drew their weapons.
However, it did not matter if they activated their vitality magnetic fields to the maximum and made the top-grade crystals embedded in their weapons glow and hum. The crystal power that flowed into their bodies from their palms still could not bring them the slightest sense of security.
Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
From the depths of the smoke, fog, and shock waves, a sound that resembled the beating of a behemoth’s heart reverberated.
Accompanied by the deafening heartbeat, the smoke, the mist, and the shock waves all shrank into a sphere no more than ten meters in diameter.
Immediately after, the ball began to burn. The flames became more and more dazzling, like a red lotus that was about to bloom.
The superhumans’ vigilance did not decrease because there was no contraction in the sense of oppression.
Instead, it soared to the limit.
Their power armor, nano combat suits, and the drones they carried with them were all equipped with the most advanced cameras and data transmitters.
A large number of high-definition photos and videos of the explosion scene were taken from different distances and angles. Then, a huge amount of data was instantly sent back to Dragon City, to the intelligence analysis departments and even the decision-making agencies of the major forces.
In an instant, the entire Dragon City shook.
All the major forces raised their vigilance to the highest level with haste.
A lot of underground forts and war fortresses opened their gates that were more than five meters thick in the rumbling noises too.
The fully-armed superhumans stared at the shiny screens with grave expressions.
Although the screens of many portable devices were only three to five inches in size, the light they emitted was like a vast ocean that completely drowned them.
While they did not know what had happened, one thing was certain.
A certain tyrannical and unparalleled existence had descended upon Dragon City!
That was the effect Meng Chao wanted to achieve.
The current situation in Dragon City was unprecedentedly complicated.
Many problems not only involved black and white, good and evil but also deeply intertwined interests.
Meng Chao, who had experienced countless apocalyptic scenarios in his nightmares, was far more mature than others his age.
He knew that justice might not be enough to defeat evil, and criminals might not be punished as they deserved.
The principle of “those who steal a hook will be executed, and those who steal a country will be honored” was universal from ancient times to the present, from Earth to the Other World.
Therefore, he did not expect the truth to be revealed even if he could produce solid evidence. He did not expect to gain the support of all parties to bring a powerful man like Yun Feidian to justice.
After all, Yun Feidian was not a mere commander. He had a huge group of people behind him.
The Blood Alliance was not an ordinary criminal organization either. It was a tumor that lived inside the nine mega corporations, and it was closely connected to the corporations’ blood vessels and nerves.
It was human nature to hide an illness and avoid treatment.
Not everyone could make up their mind to remove a tumor on their vital parts through surgery.
It would be especially so if the tumor seemed to have some benefits and could continuously absorb nutrients from the outside world.
If he wanted to deal with the Blood Alliance, he had to cut the Gordian knot.
If he wanted to cut the Gordian knot, he had to first prove to the world, especially the superhumans from different camps with different standpoints and interests, that he was fast and sharp enough to be used for the most precise surgery as well as for other purposes.
At the scene of the Golden Roc’s explosion…
Before everyone’s gaze, the burning red lotus slowly bloomed.
With Lu Siya in his arms, Meng Chao stepped on the flames and slowly walked out, leaving footprints behind him. He appeared in the sights of the superhumans, who were almost torn apart, as well as in the thousands of bright screens inside and outside Dragon City!
