Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 1837 Lei Zongchao's Whereabouts



"Understood, I'll do it now!"

Song Jinbo turned around and left.

Just as he reached the door, Meng Chao called out to him.

"Wait, there's one more thing. Help me count the number of interrogations conducted on all the Blood Alliance members so far. Find out if there are more cases similar to the gymnastics exercises and who or which interest groups are roughly involved."

Song Jinbo contemplated for a moment.

Are you going to agree to the conditions of the Ordinary People's Committee and make all the interrogation records public?" he asked.

"I won't resort to that unless I have no other choice," Meng Chao answered.

"However, I have to at least know what's going to happen in the worst-case scenario."

Song Jinbo then accepted the order and left.

Only Meng Chao and Lu Siya were left in the room.

To be more precise, it was probably 1.9999 human and 0.0001 monster.

"Interesting... I was just thinking about how Su Mulian's prophecy would come true. After all, transforming all the citizens into monsters is too big a change for me to imagine."

Lu Siya pondered for a moment. "However, if the problematic gymnastics exercises are exposed, and the authorities' explanation and handling methods are not satisfactory to the ordinary citizens, everything will make sense.

"Since the authorities have been controlled by the nine mega corporations for a long time, they favor the children of the wealthy on important issues related to education, examinations, and the selection of civil servants. As a result, the children of the poor families have been forced to suffer unfair competition in their training from the very start.

"Therefore, the ordinary citizens would rather choose 'monster transformation,' which has tremendous side effects. With their fists, claws, and fangs, they can fight for strength and equality for themselves and their children.

"In short, the rich will rely on cultivation, and the poor will rely on mutation. Meng Chao, don't you think that's the most likely future?"

Meng Chao did not have time to answer Lu Siya's question.

He dialed Long Feijun's number.

Half a day ago, he and Long Feijun had acted separately.

The latter had gone to the Supernatural Tower to invite Battle God Lei Zongchao.

Long Feijun should have met Battle God Lei Zongchao some time ago.

Lei Zongchao had fought for the Dragon City civilization his entire life and devoted everything to it. Hence, he had no reason to watch Dragon City fall into ruins without doing anything.

However, there had been no news from Long Feijun.

When Meng Chao took the initiative to contact him, the ringing tone lasted for a long time before the screen lit up. It revealed Long Feijun's silhouette, which was immersed in the darkness.

"What's going on?"

The situation was pressing, and Meng Chao did not have time to make small talk. He immediately asked, "Where's Master Lei? Have you reported the latest situation to him?"

"Master Lei..."

Long Feijun had a very strange look. "He's gone to explore the ancient ruins."

"What?!"

Meng Chao's jaw dropped. It was as if he had just heard the most unbelievable joke in the world. "What did you say? Master Lei isn't in Battle God Palace but the ancient ruins?"

No wonder he was shocked.

Ruins No. 1 was located at the center of Dragon City and deep under the Supernatural Tower. Although Battle God Lei Zongchao had been one of its earliest explorers, the Blood Alliance had forced him to risk his life to do so.

Nevertheless, it was his experience in exploring the ancient ruins that had given him unparalleled strength and established his illustrious reputation as "Dragon City's number one expert."

However, that had been decades ago.

Time spared no man, more so when it came to Battle God Lei Zongchao and the other pioneers, experimenters, and explorers. They had ventured on the path of cultivation like courageous blind stallions before the modern spirit energy martial arts theory had been developed.

Countless explorations, experiments, and fierce battles had left indelible marks on them, making their peak extremely short. As they grew older, their level and physical condition declined. Hence, retiring from their posts in battle and exploration was inevitable.

This was especially so for Lei Zongchao.

He paid the price for being "Dragon City's number one expert." The internal injuries he suffered were the most serious among all the first-generation Deity Realm fighters.

Ever since more than a decade ago, he had been unable to move outdoors without any medical equipment.

Most of the time, he had to stay in Battle God Palace, which was made of crystals, and he had to be pumped with drugs at all times.

On the rare occasion that he appeared in public, he had to wear a "miniature mobile medical cabin" that was as airtight as a spacesuit and filled with medicine.

His body was riddled with holes and wounds, so it was obvious that he was in no shape to carry out dangerous missions in the unpredictable and bottomless ancient runs.

Meng Chao never thought that any of the researchers in the Ancient Ruins Research Center would allow Battle God Lei Zongchao to enter the ancient ruins either.

The last time Lei Zongchao entered the ancient ruins had been a few years ago. Meng Chao was still in high school back then, and he heard that Lei Zongchao had encountered an explosion in there.

After that, Lei Zongchao stayed in Battle God Palace, focusing on teaching and answering questions from his students. He no longer went to the ancient ruins to cause the researchers and explorers trouble.

Therefore, why did he enter the ancient ruins at such a critical time for no reason? Was he trying to relive his glory days?

"What's going on? When did Master Lei enter the ancient ruins? Didn't anyone stop him?" Meng Chao asked.

"According to the surveillance records, it should have been yesterday. To be more precise, it was around the time when the Golden Roc exploded," Long Feijun said.

"Master Lei's been preoccupied recently. He seemed to be troubled by something.

"Since last week, he's been in closed-door cultivation and avoiding everyone.

"He's a respected elder, and he's constantly thinking about Dragon City's future and destiny. Naturally, no one, including us, the disciples of Battle God Palace, dared to disturb his peace.

"Therefore, no one saw him leave Battle God Palace, let alone stop him.

"As for the Ancient Ruins Research Center, not a single staff member saw Master Lei enter the ruins. You know, Master Lei was a first-generation explorer and the survivor who had explored the ancient ruins the most. To him, the ancient ruins is like home. Even though he's old and sick, no one can discover or stop him from sneaking into the ancient ruins!

"So, which level of the ruins did Master Lei explore?"

Meng Chao felt that he was running out of brain cells. "Have the staff from the Ancient Ruins Research Center located him?"

"No, they haven't."

Long Feijun paused for a moment, feeling a little uncertain. "Master Lei... should be at the bottom of the ancient ruins, in the darkness where countless explorers have never returned alive!"
