1815 The Supernatural Entities’ Resurrection

“Was there a problem with my death?”

Meng Chao frowned.

Su Mulian’s continuous use of the words “strange” and “accident ” made him smell a conspiracy.

“Throughout the ages, the deaths of leaders who’ve ruined their reputations have, more or less, been somewhat questionable.”

Su Mulian shrugged and said, “In my nightmare, no one knew the real cause of your death. They only knew that after your death, your wife, Lu Siya, took over your whole inheritance and became Dragon City civilization’s new leader.

Meng Chao subconsciously looked at Lu Siya.

“She’s trying to drive a wedge between us.”

Lu Siya was expressionless as she casually said, “At first, she tried to kill me. Now that she realizes that she can’t do it, she’s trying to drive a wedge between us with sweet words. It’s her nightmare anyway, and she can make up any detail she wants.”

Meng Chao kept quiet for a moment before he turned his gaze back to Su Mulian. “Go on, what did Dragon City look like under Lu Siya’s leadership?”

“Your death was a nightmare for the entire Dragon City civilization. Our enemies were overjoyed, and their morale was greatly boosted.

Su Mulian continued, “In the year following your death, the Holy Light faction launched three counterattacks in a row and recovered one-fifth of their lost territory. More importantly, it caused heavy casualties in Dragon City, causing us to lose 5% of our young and strong men.

“With Dragon City heavily damaged and its defenses in jeopardy, the traditional mode of warfare and occupation was in dire need of change. Under this premise, Lu Siya, who was facing danger, carried out forbidden research and successfully fused human and monster genes together.”

“Wait a minute.”

Meng Chao said, “Wasn’t the Awakening Capsule a product that fused human genes and monster genes together?”

“That’s right. Taking the Awakening Capsule and going through a series of training resulted in a very small amount of monster genes being implanted in the human genetic chain. However, there was a limit to the number of humans. Even if the ‘entire population awakened,’ we would only have half-human, half-beasts numbering in the tens of millions,” Su Mulian said indifferently.

“On the other hand, in Dragon City’s hinterland, there were still a large number of powerful, real monsters.

“The monster civilization as a whole had long since fallen apart and disappeared.

“Nevertheless, the number of monsters had greatly increased since the Monster War.

“However, the vast majority of monsters existed as human food, pets, labor, production tools, and war machines.

“Although the people of Dragon City ate a large amount of monster flesh every year and killed tens of thousands of monsters for this, large-scale and artificial industrial breeding was endless, breeding more and more new monsters. That caused the scale of the monster horde to continue expanding. It’s just like the livestock back on Earth. Their numbers far exceeded the wild and untamable monsters of their own kind in nature.

“If the Gene Transmission Index is a symbol of a species’ success or failure, then the chickens and ducks domesticated by human beings are far more successful than eagles and falcons that soar in the sky.

“As the nerve stripping technology, rune machinery technology, and biochip technology continued to mature, the monsters that had been tamed and modified through various methods were all used as logistics tools and war machines. While they were closely integrated into human life, they were also pushed to the forefront of our expedition into the Land of Holy Light with human soldiers.

“However, this was far from enough.

“Although these monsters still retained their mighty physique and brutal combat power, they could also be remotely controlled by humans.

“However, the spirit and magnetic environment in the Other World is complicated. The mages of the Holy Light faction were good at creating spiritual and magnetic interference, which indiscriminately blocked long-distance communication and wireless networks, paralyzing our ability to control monsters in fights.

“The monsters that had gained freedom from control but lacked the intelligence to fight on their own were easily defeated or even subdued by Holy Light mages.

“It wasn’t that we couldn’t increase the monsters’ intelligence by stimulating their brain cells.

“In fact, during the Monster War, many Hell Beasts and Apocalyptic Beasts had intelligence that wasn’t inferior to that of humans. They could act as excellent battlefield commanders and command the monster hordes that covered the sky and earth.

“However, the monsters weren’t of our kind after all, and they had a deep hatred for human beings. Even though many human beings had turned into half-human, half-beasts, they still dared not create new Hell Beasts and Apocalyptic Beasts that would likely go out of control.

“The research pushed by Lu Siya was an attempt to fuse 95% of monster genes with 5% of human genes through brand-new genetic engineering technology to create a new type of monster that had a human’s thinking pattern and even part of a human’s consciousness.”

Meng Chao remained silent for a long time before he said in disbelief, “Isn’t this the forbidden experiment that the genetic technology expert, Gao Ye, who later turned into the Supernatural Entity, Earthquake, conducted? He tried to transfer a human soul into the body of a monster, creating a ‘perfect carbon-based life form’ with human consciousness and a powerful physique!”

“That’s right. You could also think of it as Lu Siya restarting the research on the Supernatural Entity, Earthquake.”

Su Mulian lowered her eyes. “No… In fact, it wasn’t just the study of the Supernatural Entity, Earthquake. After controlling most of Dragon City’s resources and obtaining the support of various interest groups, Lu Siya restarted most of the monster civilization’s research. In a sense, the Nine Supernatural Entities under the monster mastermind’s command in the past were all in her hands. They were resurrected in a new form.”

“What?”

Meng Chao was in disbelief. “Did the people in Dragon City back then support her in doing that?”

“That was then and this is now.”

Su Mulian’s face was calm, even numb. “During the Monster War, humans and monsters were mortal enemies. In the fight for living space, it was one or the other. It was a matter of life and death. Of course, we had to do everything we could to stop and destroy the monster civilization’s various plans.

“But at this point, the monster civilization had been completely devoured by Dragon City, and it had become an organic part of our civilization. If we could create a new Supernatural Entity that was controlled by humans, it would be good for everyone.

“Besides, the war between the Chaos faction and Holy Light faction was at its most intense. Thousands of people on both sides had died miserably at the hands of the enemy. The blood of soldiers and civilians was enough to drown mountains and dye rivers red.

“At this juncture, it was impossible even if we wanted a decent truce.

“Compromise was equal to failure, and failure was equal to death.

“Lu Siya never was a law-abiding good person. The tens of millions of Dragon City people elected her as their new leader because they hoped that she would do whatever it took to save the civilization.”
