Chapter 600: Bloody Fusion
Suren laughed again.
As if he had finally grasped the loophole in Meng Chao's words, his eyes flashed with excitement.
"Wait, who said I was going to destroy Dragon City?"
Su Lun smiled, "I admit that in order to take revenge on Qiankun Pharmaceutical, I did cooperate with the monster civilization - if you want to say that I am a tiger and a pawn of the monster civilization, I have no objection."
"In the same way, I don't deny that my hands are stained with the blood of innocents, and the whole of Hive City is burning with my hatred, and my sins are unforgivable, even if I am really slashed by the residents of Hive City, it is also the fate I deserve.
"But I never wanted to destroy the entire Dragon City, on the contrary, I was saving the Dragon City!"
ββ¦β¦β
Meng Chao was stunned for a long time.
With wide eyes, he carefully observed Su Lun for a long time, but he still couldn't see the slightest sign of insanity.
"Save Dragon City, how to save it?"
Meng Chao really couldn't understand Su Lun's logic, "By turning the people of the whole city into monster feces?" β
"Meng Chao, originally I thought that you were different from other ordinary people and could jump out of the stereotyped mindset, but I didn't expect that you were still the same as them."
Su Lun said, "Do you think that if the monster civilization wins the monster war, they will eat up the human race?" β
Meng Chao said: "Wouldn't it? β
"Of course not, what is delicious for human beings, in terms of size and meat yield, it is far inferior to large monsters such as sword halberd demon pigs and ironclad rhinoceros, in terms of taste, there are also a large number of snakes, insects, fish and shrimp that are more delicate than us, compared with plant-eating monsters, our number is not too much, the fertility rate and growth cycle are quite ordinary, even if you want to keep humans in captivity, and then eat them after breeding in large quantities, it is too troublesome and not cost-effective."
Su Lun said, "In the past, there were indeed many monsters that ate people, but that was because they had no brains, and they traveled to the interior of Dragon City through the gap in time and space, and when they looked up, they were all human beings, except for eating people, what choice did these panicked brainless monsters have?"
"It's different now, in half a century of war and communication, monsters have gradually awakened to intelligence, and some super monsters with brain capacity far exceeding that of humans have real civilization, and they can even think like humans.
"You've seen the Vortex in its true form, and you've communicated with it, right? Do you think its way of thinking is any different from that of humans? Not at all!
"Compared to those unreasonable monsters in the past, don't you think that these strange beasts that have opened up their minds are more like humans, more like us?"
"Wrong."
Meng Chao said coldly, "It's not that 'alien beasts can think like humans', but 'alien beasts can simulate human thinking in front of humans', and the two are completely different." β
In Meng Chao's memories of his previous life, there were indeed many intelligent beings from other worlds with human-like thinking patterns.
But this in no way means that they can live in peace with humanity.
Even otherworldly races, no matter how similar they are to earthlings, often have underlying logic that humans can't understand, can't bear, and can't coexist.
Because both sides can communicate in the same language, they will suffer a great loss if they treat each other as like-minded people.
Su Lun's eyes rolled, and he said quickly: "That's not important, in short, the monster civilization has been born, the new monster and the traditional monster are completely different existences, we can communicate, understand each other, and of course there is room for negotiation and surrender."
"Think about it, if you are a very intelligent beast, the leader of the monster civilization, in the face of a treasure like Dragon City that contains the crystallization of the high wisdom of human civilization, where tens of thousands of years of human development history are stored, all the mysteries of agriculture, industry, science and technology, and social history and culture, as long as you absorb all of these, you can make the monster civilization that has just been born have more than 10,000 years of accumulation in an instant.
"Isn't your choice to devour all of humanity and turn its glorious cities back into savage jungles, and let you, who have finally gained wisdom, revert to your old way of lifeβisn't that too tyrannical?"
"I see, I see."
Meng Chao thought for a moment and said, "Do you think that by surrendering to the monster civilization, Dragon City will be able to exchange for a way to survive?" β
"Not surrender, but integration."
Su Lun said, "Human civilization and monster civilization must be completely integrated together in order for us to continue to survive in this cruel world!" β
Meng Chao raised his eyebrows.
"Don't you realize, Meng Chao, we are very dangerous, Dragon City is already on the edge of the cliff!"
Despite the severed legs and hundreds of pounds of shackles, Su Lun regained his former demeanor and even added a strange charm.
While gasping, he said in a hoarse voice, "Don't think that winning the offensive on the northern front or even the monster civilization is amazing, the Otherworld, from our analysis of the gravity and atmosphere of the Otherworld, this is a planet the same size as the Earth, and the Monster Mountain Range is only a corner of the vast continent of this planet!"
"On a huge planet, are there only monsters as a threat?
"The Doomsday Beast has unparalleled power, but it is suppressed in the small Monster Mountain Range, and it would rather fight to the death with the Earth Travelers in the past half century, but it does not dare to take a step beyond the Thunder Pond and migrate to the vast world outside the Monster Mountain Range, why, is there a more terrifying existence than the Doomsday Beast outside the Monster Mountain Range?
"For half a century, the fog caused by the ripples of space has protected humanity like an impregnable wall, so that everyone mistakenly thinks that monsters are the only threat, and as long as we deal with them, we can dominate this planet called 'Otherworld' and conquer it completely.
"But now, more and more people of insight are gradually waking up, realizing that things are by no means so simple, the so-called heart-wrenching monster war, at the level of the entire other world, it is very likely that two rookies pecked each other, and when the fog completely dissipates, and an existence more terrifying than the monster comes, whether we are or the monster, we will die without a place to bury!"
Meng Chao listened quietly.
And there is no refutation.
Because although Su Lun was alarmist and pretending to be a ghost, what he said was really wrong.
No one understands the horror of the other world better than Meng Chao.
The history of the previous life did develop as Suren predicted.
After humans defeat the monsters and step out of the monster mountain range, they will encounter all kinds of beings that are more terrifying than the monsters, and eventually run out of ammunition and food, and have no power to return to the sky.
"There is only one way to save us, and that is before the fog has completely dissipated and the more terrifying otherworldly race has not discovered us, we will first merge with the monster civilization, learn from each other's strengths, and keep warm, so that it is possible to fight a bloody way in the otherworld, which is a hundred times more cruel than the competition in the monster mountain range."
Su Lun said, "We need monsters, and monsters also need us, judging from the speed and degree of evolution of the monster civilization, their leader should have enough wisdom to come to this conclusion." β
"Convergence ......"
Meng Chao smiled dumbly, "After shedding so much blood and killing so many compatriots? β
"Fusion is always going to bleed."
Su Lun spat a mouthful of bloody saliva, "The history of human civilization on the earth for tens of thousands of years is a history of war that is constantly fused through bloodshed and killing, and today's human beings are all descendants of butchers, executioners, and murderers, and we have killing blood in our bones, but this does not prevent us from creating a brilliant civilization, does it?" β
"Makes sense, you convinced me."
Meng Chao nodded slowly, "However, there is still a small question - even if we want to fuse through bloodshed and killing, why don't we wield a butcher's knife and kill all the monsters that dare to resist us, so that the remaining strange beasts that are still smart will tremble at our feet, bow down to us, and become our vassals?"
"Obviously, after the offensive on the northern front, it is we who have the strategic initiative, and if we really want to surrender, it should be the surrender of the monster civilization to the human civilization - I believe that after all, human beings are benevolent, united and friendly, and after completely dismembering the monster civilization and squeezing out their use value, we will not kill all the monsters.
"Why do you have to surrender to the monsters, isn't it redundant, and a lot of senseless bloodβthe blood of your countrymen?"
Suren opened his mouth.
But he was speechless.
He originally thought that Meng Chao would despise the threat of the other world, categorically deny the possibility of the fusion of humans and monsters, and continue to preach the "steel torrent, sweeping the other world".
If that's the case, he naturally has a set of extravagant words, which can make Meng Chao dizzy, and maybe he can still find a glimmer of life.
Unexpectedly, Meng Chao took a salary from the bottom of the kettle, and suddenly poked his sore spot.
"So, selfishness is selfishness, shamelessness is shamelessness, evil is evil, why bother looking for reasons like 'revenge' and 'saving Dragon City' to put gold on your face?"
Meng Chao sneered and said, "I know people like you too well, what do you keep saying 'get ahead, revenge', the first half of the sentence is true, but the second half of the sentence is false, the so-called 'revenge and hatred' is just to climb up by unscrupulous means and find a reason to deceive yourself."
"As long as you have this reason, no matter how many innocent people you kill or how many families and homes you destroy, no matter how many innocent people you kill, no matter how many families and homes you destroy, you can feel at ease, and you will never feel the slightest guilt, after all, you have no choice!"
Su Lun's face inflated again like a red balloon.
"No, it's not like that, I'm not for myself, but for our civilization!"
He argued hoarsely, "Compared to the human civilization that crossed over from the earth, the monster civilization is more suitable for the survival and development of the other world, after all, the monsters are the natives of this planet, and their form is the perfect form that is most suitable for this planet!" β
