Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Ye Xiaoxing continued, “The members of Blue Home were originally a bunch of nostalgic old geezers who had a lot of complaints. They gathered together only to recite poems from Earth and admire movies made on Earth. They didn’t cause much of a ruckus.

“But the Home Party is different. Its members are mostly explorers and developers of transmigration technology. Even if it’s impossible to develop controllable transmigration for the time being, they’ve mastered a lot of runic symbols and spirit energy magnetic fields through their research, and they’re continuously increasing their realms and fighting power.

“Also, once the Home Party’s plan becomes something workable, they will build a super defense line around Dragon City that is even more amazing than the Maginot Line. All of Dragon City will then turn into an impenetrable fortress.

“If they build a defense line and fortress, they will definitely end up gathering a lot of interest from groups with industries related to it, and countless machine masters and engineers will earn a living through them.

“Since this will be a conflict of interests, it will be much more brutal than a competition of ideals. The parties involved will also be much firmer in their stances.

“A lot of developers of controllable transmigration, architects of fortresses, machine masters, engineers, and experts as well as elites from various industries have joined Blue Home. This quickly turned this organization from an ununited and useless club used only to reminisce about the times on Earth into an organization with its own ideals, interests, and strengths.

“Originally, the Colonization Party had absolute advantage in Dragon City, and the Home Party kept a relatively low profile when it came to their activities. Blue Home never caused much of a ruckus either. They just invited the developers of controllable transmigration to organize lectures, machine masters and engineers to share their experiences at creating defense lines, and talked about Earth’s culture.

“However, over the past year, more Dragon Citizens, especially normal citizens, started leaning toward the Home Party, and Blue Home started growing.”

“Yeah…” Meng Chao thought about it. “Recently, I saw a lot of posts online agreeing with the Home Party, and when on the streets, I often see people handing out leaflets related to the ideals of the Home Party. There are also people from my residential area talking about it. They want to build the tallest and thickest wall to surround Dragon City.

“Even my mother mentioned that since our lives are getting better, there’s no need for Dragon City to conquer the Other World. The Other World is big, and it might have existences that are even more terrifying than monsters. She is wondering when all the fighting will come to an end. All that conquering and colonization may just make the citizens suffer.”

Ye Xiaoxing smiled a little helplessly. “That’s right. There are only a handful of people who are fighting maniacs. The superhumans may long for battle, because it’s only by fighting that they can get extra resources and reach higher levels, but to normal citizens, peace is the most valuable thing.

“In the past, Dragon City had been adamant about conquering the Other World. In truth, it was the motivator for all the citizens to keep their spirits up, because the city faced a life and death crisis. So, by saying that, they could set the most idealized goal.

“At that time, Dragon City was disorganized, and we didn’t enjoy peace. Our civilization was about to be destroyed. If we didn’t use grand ideals to motivate the people and look down on our enemies with strategies, we wouldn’t have been able to last until today.

“Do you think that the higher-ups of the Survival Committee and the Supernatural Tower don’t know how hard it is to conquer all of the Other World with just one city? The monsters are already so terrifying, so if the Other World locals have intelligence and their own civilization, they will definitely be even more terrifying. They know this very well. They can also calculate just how great of a price Dragon City would have to pay and how many people would have to die if they really tried to conquer all of the Other World.

“The higher-ups know it far too well.

“But they have no choice. When Dragon City faced its life and death crisis, only the slogan of conquering the Other World could motivate the people and make them advance toward death with a smile. They couldn’t say, ‘The Other World is too big and terrifying. Even if we kill all the monsters, enemies who are even fiercer than monsters will pop up.’ If they did, morale would crumble instantly.”

Meng Chao had thought about this problem before.

Humans were only able to survive when they had something to look forward to. It was the same thing for a civilization.

“Conquering the Other World has always been the hope of Dragon City. But the situation is different now,” Ye Xiaoxing said. “After we obtained victory at the northern frontlines and all sorts of new martial arts, secret techniques, machines, runic symbols, and technology were born, including the Ultimate Style, Dragon City seems to have won the Monster War.

“Now, it only needs to expand itself over the Monster Mountain Range and use the mountain range’s natural barrier to form a super defense line. This is something that is absolutely possible.

“As long as we expand our survival space four or five times, we will be able to solve the problem of Dragon City’s lack of space and lack of resources. As for searching for a consumer market for the extra production power in Dragon City? That’s another problem. It might not need full-on war to be solved.

“Let me put it simply. In the past, Dragon City had nothing. When we fight with nothing to our name, we always win, because we have nothing to lose. So naturally, everyone supported the slogan.

“Right now, however, Dragon City has entered a new area. We have forward operating bases in all four cardinal directions, and there’s a good chance of welcoming a peace among us, which means that we have a lot of opinions now. The people are starting to wonder whether we should stop and be content so that we can keep a firm hold on the home that we spent a lot of effort to get.

“Don’t forget, it’s not as if we have no exit. We have Earth behind us. Going back to Earth has been the dream for generations of people. Who knows whether controllable transmigration will be developed tomorrow?”

Meng Chao opened his mouth to say ‘But controllable transmigration might not be developed even after one hundred years have passed’, but then changed his mind.

When he thought about it, he found that the more accurate statement would be ‘Without my interference, controllable transmigration was never developed even when the apocalypse arrived in my previous life.’

Changes had occurred because of him in this life. They obtained full victory in the northern frontlines, and controllable transmigration had always been regarded with great importance, so the whole city researched this problem. With their success in other areas, it would also obtain a lot of research funds and resources. He wondered whether one day he would see the tunnel that connects the Other World and Earth.

If it were possible, Meng Chao would want to return to Earth as well.

And he would do it with his parents and little sister. They could go back to the home planet none of them had seen before but dreamed of and which occupied their thoughts constantly.

They would go to a world that was as beautiful as heaven and live carefree and peaceful lives.

“With Blue Home as its leader, many of the Home Party organizations rose up in Dragon City,” Ye Xiaoxing said. “People from all sorts of backgrounds joined them, and it changed the nature of these organizations further.

“Over the past half a year, Blue Home has become more extreme. Not only do they want to build a defense line around Dragon City, they also want more resources put into the development of controllable transmigration. They’re also asking for the limitation on the power of high-grade superhumans, the division of the nine great mega corporations, the shrinking of the difference between normal people and superhumans, stricter monitoring standards over the superhumans who have great destructive powers, and fairer distribution methods of crystals, spirit energy, superbeast materials, and other tactical resources.

“In any case, they’re saying the same things as Lin Chuan and Gao Ye. It’s those things like ‘Demonic Halberd Pigs and Nine-headed Crystal Dragons are not the same kind.’, ‘normal people must have the power to keep superhumans in check.'”

Meng Chao pondered over this. “Are you saying that Lin Chuan and Gao Ye found their ideals in Blue Home?”

“At the very least, I believe they were influenced by Blue Home,” Ye Xiaoxing said. “If they were just exchanging ideas and using lawful methods to push for reformation and improvement in Dragon City, that would not be a problem.

“However, we’re worried that there are abnormal beasts lurking in Blue Home and using secret mind techniques to plant dangerous seeds in human brains so that they become more extreme and frenzied. It then makes them walk down completely different paths compared to their real ideals.

“Lin Chuan and Gao Ye’s ideals might have had merit, but they chose paths that doomed them for eternity. It’s hard for me to say whether it could have happened without the influence of abnormal beasts.”

Meng Chao nodded.

“The White Spirit wasn’t modified by Lin Chuan and Gao Ye didn’t help him create it either. It must have some connection with the satellite cities in the fog.

“So, we must figure out the true identity of Blue Home and what their core ideals are. We need to know what sort of methods they plan to use to carry out their ideals and whether the abnormal beasts are playing tricks behind their backs.”

Ye Xiaoxing tapped the table lightly and said, “Meng Chao, are you interested in joining Blue Home?”

Meng Chao was a little taken aback. “What?”

“We need someone we can trust to join Blue Home and investigate the organization,” Ye Xiaoxing said. “Even though Blue Home has public activities and has been mobilizing a lot of manpower to help the citizens who lost their homes so that they can seize the chance to spread the ideals of the Home Party, what they spread publicly are just the same old things. They’re just talking about building a super defense line and developing transmigration technology. It’s impossible for us to figure out the full extent of their thoughts.

“We’ve thought about sending some good investigators over to enter the internal circle of Blue Home, but our investigators have received too much professional training and are just too much like secret agents. Besides, before we joined the abnormal beast research department, most of us were part of the army, secret police, and other disciplinary forces. It would be very easy for them to figure out that our investigators are from the abnormal beast research department if they look into our background.

“Siya is also interested in the mission. But she’s an official member of the abnormal beast research department and also part of the nine great mega corporations. Since she is from Sky Pillar Corporation, it’d be difficult for her to obtain Blue Home’s trust.

“As we thought about it, we found that you’re the best candidate.”

Meng Chao thought about it for a while and asked, “Why?”

“First, you’re not an official member of the abnormal beast research department. Even if they figure out that you have been working closely with us recently, that’s fine. A good citizen has the duty to work with the disciplinary organizations, anyway,” Ye Xiaoxing said.

“Second, you’re still a university student. Even though you’re not a normal university student, they’ll most likely lower their guard around you.

“Third, you had a very good relationship with Lin Chuan. Everyone knows that you’re the Weeping Reaper’s junior, and Gao Ye also admired you. Even now, he is still sending you his experiment logs. I believe that this shows that Lin Chuan and Gao Ye thought that you agree with Blue Home’s ideals and may become one of them.

“Fourth, you’re the club leader of Broken Star Club. Based on what I know, many of the broken-star superhumans have joined Broken Star Club and Blue Home. If there is anyone in Blue Home who is coveting your large number of connections , they will definitely think of a way to recruit you.”
