Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!-Chapter 1827 The Debate About Monsters
"Wonderful, what wonderful reasoning. From catching the small clues to getting close to the truth, Meng Chao, you surprise me time and time again!"
"If it were anyone other than you who made such an accusation against me, I would certainly be pissed and I wouldn't bother to say a word to him.
"Even if—please note that I'm talking about a big 'if'—the monster mastermind, which has seemingly disappeared, still has ten-thousandth of its power left in my body and there's a tiny possibility that it can be revived, so what? 𝙛𝒓𝚎𝙚w𝑒𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝚎l. co𝙢
"Aside from that, I don't feel that I've done anything to let you down, let Dragon City down, or let the millions of ordinary people living in Dragon City down. May I ask, what crime have I committed? Or rather, what harm will my existence cause to Dragon City?
"Besides, I don't believe that the future can be predicted. Perhaps, we can only predict one, or at most, a few possibilities of the future. Those possibilities are only a tiny, insignificant part of the billions of possibilities for future development.
"If the future has been determined a long time ago, what's the point of all our efforts right now? Are we all puppets manipulated by fate? Are we only allowed to follow the rules step by step and pretend that we're moving forward on a path that's been marked with an invisible hand by a certain existence higher than us?
"If that's the case, then isn't such a future, such reality, and such a fate a hundred times more terrifying than the fact that I was possessed by the monster's mastermind?
Lu Siya's words made Meng Chao fall into deep thought.
In the first future that he "saw", "dreamed," or even "experienced," Lu Siya did not exist.
However, even without Lu Siya, Dragon City's civilization still faced the crisis of ten thousand suns exploding in the sky.
The vortex at the core of Meng Chao's mind spun faster and faster.
He contemplated for a long time, then slowly shook his head and said, "The plan of 'turning everyone into monsters' won't work. If we do that, it will only make the Dragon City civilization a second Turan civilization.
"For ten thousand years, the Turan civilization was trapped in a bloody reincarnation of the law of the jungle. From the proud space civilization in the past, it degenerated into a clan civilization that feasted on raw meat and blood. It couldn't compete with the Holy Light faction, which occupied the center of the Other World.
"So that's what it is. So, that's the knot in your heart?"
"Do you think the Turan civilization is what it is today because it was corrupted by the Eggs of Chaos and went through a National Monster Transformation, turning their entire race into half-human, half-beast beings?
"You even think that the rat people are bullied and oppressed because they look like rats, and that everything will be better if they change their appearance?
"In the Earth era, humans all looked exactly the same, and there wasn't much difference in power between them.
"Were the humans of the Earth era, our ancestors, also possessed and parasitized by some kind of invisible monster? And were they all monsters in human skin?
"If the Dragon City civilization continues to develop like this, how different will the lives of the ordinary people be from that of the rat people you saw in Picturesque Orchid Lake? Even without the monsters' influence, their lives are getting worse and worse, and their chances are getting slimmer and slimmer."
