“If that’s the case, the ‘Jackal’ Kanus in my previous life did not obtain the legacy of the ancestral spirits but magic power from the mother of origin or the Egg of Chaos.
“And the reason why the other party bestowed him with unparalleled power and helped him evolve from a jackal into a Doomsday Wolf was clearly malicious.
“According to what the researcher said and everything I’ve observed, the spirit magnet has the ability to collect, analyze, and run battle data.
“The richer the battle data entered into the spirit magnet, the stronger the spirit magnet’s independence and combat ability become. It can even be strong enough to break away from carbon-based life forms, operate on its own, and hunt freely.
“That’s not something incredible.
“In Dragon City, scientists have long developed various kinds of intelligent war machines, such as armed drones and spider chariots that carry the brain nerves of monsters, and so on.
“The research on artificial intelligence, unmanned piloting, automatic navigation, locking, and attack has also come out in an endless stream and is improving day by day.
“As long as sufficient data is stored, the armed drone attack group of Dragon City can completely be like a swarm of bees with life, carrying out an ever-changing attack on the target—the more data is input into the drone, the stronger the ‘vitality’ of the drone.
“If the totem armor condensed from the spirit magnet is a drone…”
Meng Chao was shocked.
He guessed part of the mother origin’s purpose.
As expected, this malicious mother of origin fragment helped the Turan people evolve the supermagnet into a spirit magnet on the surface, with the generosity and kindness of Mother Earth.
In reality, it turned all the Turan orcs into its “data collector.”
Through the totem armor condensed by the spirit magnets, the Turan orcs’ desire to kill was stimulated, and the research ability of the Turan civilization was destroyed.
Through the blooming and bearing of the mandrake tree, the harvest and famine of the Turan civilization were controlled, causing the population of the Turan civilization to explode time and time again. The problem of the lack of resources caused them to choose between killing each other and
expanding outward. They had no other option but to make a choice.
And whether the Turan orcs chose to cannibalize or expand…
There would be long-lasting wars and endless battles like the hell of Asura.
‘Mountains of corpses and seas of blood were piled up in Picturesque Orchid Lake time and time again.
The mother, on the other hand, could take the opportunity to collect a large amount of combat data and silently build its army of spirit magnets deep underground!
“The Wolf King in my previous life must have been chosen by the mother for this purpose, right?”
Becoming the Doomsday Wolf and starting a war between worlds, regardless of whether the Turan civilization won or lost, the mother could delay time and complete its final evolution on one hand. On the other hand, it could collect more battle data and evolve into a more perfect battle form. It was
always in an invincible position, and it would only lose a few pawns at most.
“No, the mother of origin’s chess piece is not just the Turan civilization.”
After being enlightened, Meng Chao’s brain became more open and clearer.
Many memory fragments of his previous life, which had been vague before, were now like crystal shells in a clear stream. Every pattern on them was still vivid in his mind.
“When I think about it carefully, it is not unreasonable that the Dragon City civilization in my previous life was called an Extraordinary Disaster.
“At that time, Dragon City was firmly under the control of the nine mega corporations.
“The bigwigs from the mega corporations had wealth and power that ordinary people could not accumulate even after thousands of years of struggle. However, they would only drive the ordinary people into the Land of Holy Light under the pretense of ‘fighting for the earth and for the human beings.
“However, most of the gains from sacrificing countless people were divided by these high and mighty figures and used for their own cultivation and the cultivation of their descendants.
“What the ordinary people get is nothing more than a little of the leftovers.
“The crueler the war, the higher the realm of the big figures, the stronger their power, the more unshakable their rule over Dragon City will be, and the easier it will be for their voices to be converted into the will of the entire civilization.
“The ordinary people will be more miserable, weaker, and more stretched. Their lives will be in danger, and they will be less able to think about whether or not a small city can conquer the entire Other World.
“In this way, the big shots will have more reason to command the ordinary people to launch a new round of war. This is because ‘only by conquering the entire Other World, can our civilization usher in an incomparably beautiful future!”
“Hehe. In my previous life, I was also inspired by the deafening roars of the bigwigs who had stepped into the Deity Realm as if they were gods descending from heaven. My blood was boiling, and I became a Ghost Assassin in a daze. I thought that I could protect my family, protect my home, and create a
brand-new future.
“Ultimately, I was reduced before the bigwigs who were high and mighty. They kept plundering resources, improving their strength, and consolidating their power. In the end, only my family, my home, and the future were ushered in… Everything else was destroyed!
“Such a Dragon City might seem to have advanced technology and abnormal prosperity, but in the shadow of excessive brilliance, it is no different from Picturesque Orchid Lake, which was divided into ‘military nobles’ and ‘rat people!”
“No, Dragon City should not be like this.
“At the very least, the people who worked hard to build Dragon City, brick by brick, would never want to see Dragon City become so rich and poor, with the strong and the weak differentiated, with the strong preying on the weak, and the winner being king.
“When Dragon City first crossed over, those soldiers who jumped into the flood without hesitation for the safety of millions of citizens would never want Dragon City to become like this.
“In the past half a century, in order to create a better tomorrow, the martyrs who fought against monsters, zombies, viruses, famines, the lost ones… all kinds of natural and man-made disasters to the last moment of their lives, would never want their homes to be built and watered by their blood to meet
its end in such a humiliating way.
“When did Dragon City deviate from its original track?
“When did those big shots who controlled absolute force stop wholeheartedly defending the interests of Dragon City and put their own interests, their families’ interests, and the mega corporations’ interests first?
“Are the big shots from Dragon City the same as the Doomsday Wolf and orcs in my previous life, who were unwittingly corrupted by the Egg of Chaos and turned into puppets, ghouls, and monsters in human skin?”
‘The answer was self-evident.
Although the Monster War had ended, the monsters were far from being wiped out.
In other words, it was easy to defeat the monsters in the mountains.
However, it was almost impossible to completely destroy the monsters in people’s hearts.
If the Dragon City civilization, like the Turan civilization, was corroded and even controlled by the Egg of Chaos, then there was a reasonable explanation for another thing that Meng Chao could not figure out.
That was why the Holy Light Temple used space-based orbital weapons to launch a devastating attack on Dragon City.
Although Meng Chao did not know the principle of space-based orbital weapons and the true face, he knew that launching such a strike would inevitably consume astronomical resources and cost a terrible price.
It should be known that the Ancients during the ancient war only fell on the surface of the planet, and the mother drove countless monsters to form the “Tower of Babel.” When they tried to advance beyond the atmosphere, they made up their minds and used space-based orbital weapons to blast the
mother into pieces.
‘That attack completely destroyed the entire planet’s ecosystem.
It turned the planet’s surface into a barren hell for the next tens of thousands of years or even hundreds of thousands of years.
Although the mother was blasted into pieces, leaving only the last few seeds of life, it fell into a long hibernation.
However, the Ancients could no longer use the planet to reproduce and continue their civilization.
By now, the Ancients had vanished into thin air.
Even if the Holy Light Temple was able to touch a part of the Ancients’ power, it was bound to be thousands of miles away from the real Ancients.
Meng Chao did not believe that the mortal bodies of the Holy Light Temple could mobilize the space-based orbital weapons left by the Ancients at will.
Over the past ten thousand years, the Turan orcs had attacked the Land of Holy Light numerous times.
‘The Holy Light faction had also launched many “purification wars” against the Turan orcs.
However, Picturesque Orchid Lake, including the Holy Mountain temple, had never suffered a destructive attack from space-based orbital weapons.
If they launched the space-based orbital attacks, which the Holy Light Temple called “God’s punishment,” it would really be easy.
The Turan civilization had already suffered hundreds and thousands of “God’s punishment”.
By the time Dragon City welcomed “God’s punishment,” the main forces of the Turan orcs had been completely wiped out.
The Chaos faction had also fallen apart.
Dragon City’s civilization had become a spent force. It was simply impossible to contend with the Holy Light faction, which controlled 80% of the resources in the entire Other World by itself.
‘The Holy Light faction’s soldiers could crush Dragon City and raze it to the ground with conventional tactics.
Why did they have to launch a space-based orbital attack?
One should know that this ultimate weapon, which was more brutal than a strategic nuclear attack, could not distinguish between friend and foe!
At that time, innumerable Holy Light faction troops were deployed on the periphery of the battle line surrounding Monster Mountain Range.
‘The warriors from the Holy Light Temple also often broke into Dragon City and started street battles.
Meng Chao conservatively estimated that while the space-based orbital weapons destroyed Dragon City, at least hundreds of thousands of Holy Light troops were also instantly annihilated, disappearing from the world.
‘Was it necessary to use such extreme methods and pay such a heavy price just to exterminate a doomed army?
Unless…
‘The target of the space-based orbital weapons was not actually Dragon City, at least not entirely.
In addition to destroying Dragon City’s civilization, what the Holy Light Temple wanted to destroy more was the Egg of Chaos that had been hiding in the depths of Dragon City and had fled there from the underground of Picturesque Orchid Lake!
