Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!-Chapter 1538 - Tip of the Iceberg

With an ominous premonition, Meng Chao turned his gaze to the second Demonic Halberd Pig’s corpse.

This Demonic Halberd Pig was also a “little white pig” that had been cultivated with gene knockout technology to change its tusks, skin, and hair, making it appear soft and tender.

However, it had grown extremely thick tendons and muscles. There were circles of blood vessels that looked like tree roots wrapped around it. There were also countless bone spurs growing between the blood vessels on its left forelimb.

Its forelimb was out of proportion to its body size.

It was even longer than the length of the Demonic Halberd Pig.

It looked like it had been torn off from a high-level beast that was several times bigger than the Demonic Halberd Pig and stitched onto it. 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖

Meng Chao also found dense dark red scales on its left forelimb.

Even though the Demonic Halberd Pig had been dead for a long time and most of its organs had been exhausted, there were still fiery ripples between its scales, faintly flowing and surging.

In addition, the end of its left forelimb clearly did not have the characteristics of a cloven-hoofed monster.

Instead, it was the claw of a dragon-type monster.

The huge and sharp dragon claw was like four overlapping death scythes. The bloodstains that had long solidified on its body gave off a terrifying aura that made one’s heart contract.

“This is not the Demonic Halberd Pig’s limb.

“It’s the limb of some high-level flood-dragon-type monster, such as the Demonic Flaming Dragon, the Giant-mouthed Flaming Dragon, or the Volcano Ranger.

“There could even be some relation to the limb of a Crystalline Nine-headed Dragon.

“However, there are no signs of suturing at the joints between the Demonic Halberd Pig’s left forelimb and body.

“This is enough to prove that it wasn’t pieced together after birth. Instead, it’s a product of genetic engineering and biochemical modification.

“This Demonic Halberd Pig was born with part of the bloodline and limbs of a high-level beast!”

Meng Chao clicked his tongue inwardly.

Everyone knew that the higher the level of a beast, the more unruly it would be, and the more unwilling it would be to be tamed and used by humans.

The Crystalline Nine-headed Dragon was like that. The king of the monsters naturally had the pride of a king. 𝑓𝗿𝐞𝘦𝘄ｅ𝘣n𝘰𝘷eƖ.c𝘰𝗺

In the face of an overwhelming torrent of steel, it would rather be smashed into pieces by hundreds of railway guns and the bombardment of Deity Realm warriors than become a loyal dog under the feet of humans.

Taming the ferocious Hell Beasts and even the Apocalyptic Beasts had become an urgent problem for the Dragon City civilization to solve.

As far as Meng Chao knew, many organizations, including the Superstar Company and Agricultural University, all tried their hand at it.

But so far, no one had come up with a fundamental solution.

Occasionally, a “beast tamer” would tame a Hell Beast or even an Apocalyptic Beast, but it was only a special case and could not be replicated.

However, the idea of the underground laboratory was the opposite.

Since the Hell Beasts and Apocalyptic Beasts were existences that could not be tamed, they might as well give up on the idea of taming them.

Instead, they would find a way to inject the genes of the Hell Beasts and Apocalyptic Beasts into the bodies of the Nightmarish Beasts that could be tamed and had astonishing fertility. Then, they would be able to create biochemical weapons that were partially nightmarish and partially hellish. They would even be the ultimate bioweapon with “one-third Nightmarish bloodline, one-third Hell bloodline, and one-third Apocalyptic bloodline”!

“By utilizing the characteristics of the Blood Flower spores, the fusion of the different bloodlines will be improved, and a Nightmarish Beast that possesses some of the abilities of a Hell Beast or even an Apocalyptic Beast can be created!

“It does sound feasible.

“Of course, it’s not easy to achieve this.

“Take the Demonic Halberd Pig for example. Since its left forelimb is made up of high-level cells, the daily energy consumption of each cell is astronomical. The Demonic Halberd Pig’s food and digestive system are not enough to maintain the normal functioning of its left forelimb.

“As a result, while its left forelimb became thicker and stronger, its body, brain, and the other three limbs became thinner and withered as the days went by. The originally fat Demonic Halberd Pig was reduced to skin and bones.

“The cause of its death should be malnutrition. It starved to death.”

It sounded ridiculous for a Demonic Halberd Pig that was locked in the laboratory with enough feed to actually die from malnutrition.

However, Meng Chao was not kidding.

It boiled down to the same thing. The experiment was to search for a one in ten thousand success from all the seemingly absurd and unrivaled impossibilities.

Presumably, the host of this underground laboratory had also been repeatedly screening and testing to find the high-level beast bloodline that was most suitable to be mixed with the genes of the Demonic Halberd Pig, right?

In fact, there was no need for such a powerful Apocalyptic Beast bloodline like that of the Crystalline Nine-headed Dragon.

As long as the Tyrant Mammoth Hell Beast gene could be perfectly injected into the Demonic Halberd Pig’s body, it did not even need to be too perfect, provided that the Tyrant-Demonic Halberd Pig could unleash its combat strength for half an hour.

If there were a total of three to five hundred such Demonic Halberd Pigs, or even more, it would bea terrifying force that was no weaker than a flood of steel!

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes andturned his gaze to the third demon pig.

No, to be more precise, it was an object that looked like the corpse of a Demonic Halberd Pig.

It had been blown into a bloody mess and was not shaped like a pig.

Every bone, blood vessel, and muscle fiber of this creature had exploded from the inside.

Tremendous pressure had caused the flesh and blood all over its body to bloom from the inside out.

The appalling sight reminded Meng Chao of the man-eating flower that the main tank had crushed.

This creature had experienced an extremely violent self-detonation.

Judging from the degree of the damage, the spirit energy that had gathered in its body right before the self-detonation was no less dense than that of a Level 4 Hell Beast.

“Since its cells were still at the extent of a Level 2 Nightmarish Beast, it was unable to withstand the surging spirit energy that led to the tragedy.

“However, it also proves that the underground laboratory has accumulated pretty advanced technology to allow the Nightmarish Beast to instantly unleash the combat ability of a Hell Beast. It’s just that the power isn’t stable enough yet.”

Meng Chao’s gaze passed the monster’s riddled corpse and landed on the body of a fourth Demonic Halberd Pig.

Compared with its counterpart that had self-destructed, this corpse looked “clean.”

It had already undergone an autopsy. A large amount of its flesh and blood had been neatly flipped to its sides, revealing the bones between its torso and limbs.

Unlike an ordinary Demonic Halberd Pig, its bones emitted a dazzling metallic luster.

One could vaguely see that at the end of its bones, there were metal joints made of gears and bearings of all sizes.

“This is...

“Can the Demonic Halberd Pig’s resistance to impact and survivability be enhanced when its skeleton is replaced by reinforcement alloy and a mechanical skeleton?

“It’s not just a biochemical process.

“It’s a product of semi-biochemical and semi-mechanical processes.

“If the process can be completed, the Demonic Halberd Pig will no longer be a simple monster, but a more complicated and powerful ‘mechanical beast.’ Even if its flesh and blood are torn apart, its organs and brain burned, it will still be able to carry out all the orders given by its superiors without rest. It’ll be driven by the mechanical skeleton, the control chip, and the built-in engine!”

What he saw before his eyes was just the tip of the iceberg.

Meng Chao’s emotions were extremely complicated.

The Dragon City civilization in the apocalyptic nightmare had almost no time to catch their breath after they suffered heavy losses against the monster civilization. They were drawn into the magnificent war between worlds.

Therefore, the Dragon City civilization did not have the time to digest and absorb the spoils of war from the Monster War. As a result, they did not have such advanced biochemical technology and the ability to modulate monsters.

However, Meng Chao himself had changed the future.

Today’s Dragon City Civilization had inherited everything from the monster civilization almost unscathed.

If you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.

The Dragon City civilization had tried to devour all of the monster civilization’s heritage so that the monsters would become the most powerful tool for humans to conquer the Other World. However, the ghosts of the monster civilization would certainly attach themselves to humans in various ways, and imperceptibly change the appearance of Dragon City and the entire human race in return.

It was a double-edged sword.

If the power of a monster civilization... was put in the right place... by the right people... it had the potential to shatter nightmares... and stop the apocalypse.

It could even promote the evolution of human civilization as well as help mankind to open up an early link between Earth and the Other World.

Unfortunately, if the monster civilization fell into the hands of those with ulterior motives, it would merge with the “monster lurking in the depths of humanity.”

It was possible to create a catastrophe larger than what Meng Chao had experienced in his apocalyptic nightmare. It might even bring the end of the world forward!

After Meng Chao figured that out, he had to find more information.

“Who are the investors and hosts of this underground laboratory? What role does the lingering Blood Alliance play in it?”
