Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!-Chapter 1861 Death Is Not The Worst End

As a matter of fact, the Ancient Ruins Research Center staff of twenty years ago were not too surprised when a superhuman entered the deepest part of the underground rift without permission.

The ancient ruins were the Other World's greatest secret. Soul-stirring power was hidden in the darkness like an invisible, bloody mouth that devoured the bodies and souls of countless explorers every year.

The problem was, it had been ten years since the ancient ruins were sealed, and no one had heard the mysterious Ancient Ruins' Summon.

However, this time, the one who responded to the call was the legendary martial artist, the founder of spirit martial arts theory, and the pioneer who had faced the ancient ruins countless times, Battle God Lei Zongchao!

Even Lei Zongchao could not resist the call.

What about the other superhumans?

If Lei Zongchao was not going to be the last, who was next?

Due to these worries, Wu Haibo could not reject the group's search and rescue plan to act first before reporting.

They also knew that there was chaos above ground. The superhumans from humble families that the Azure Alliance represented and the superhumans from the wealthy families that the nine mega corporations represented were at daggers drawn. They were in a delicate balance that could tip over at any moment. The Ordinary People's Committee had also appeared out of nowhere to represent the will of ordinary citizens in Dragon City.

At such a critical juncture, they continued to report to their higher-ups, discuss and deliberate the matter repeatedly, as well as make long-term plans. They were afraid that Battle God Lei Zongchao was lying somewhere in the cold depths of the ancient ruins.

In fact, lying in the cold was not the worst end.

"To be honest, we're not afraid of Battle God Lei Zongchao dying in the depths of the ancient ruins or disappearing for decades without a trace."

Wu Haibo seemed conflicted, and he said to Meng Chao, "Rather, we're afraid that he might somehow bypass us and return to the surface.

"The problem is, returning from the depths of the ancient ruins might change the Battle God's appearance.

"Meng Chao, you should know about the extremely brutal battle we fought when we first discovered the ancient ruins, right?"

Meng Chao nodded.

It was a battle that all Dragon City people would never forget.

It also profoundly changed the future direction of Dragon City's civilization.

It was not long after Dragon City had transmigrated.

Even the Blood Alliance had not risen yet.

The rift that led into the ancient ruins had appeared in the city's remnants during a violent earthquake.

The Ancient Ruins' Summon that fatally attracted humans also appeared around this time.

The first batch of people who were drawn by the Ancient Ruins' Summon and crawled into the cracks to explore the ancient ruins certainly obtained extraordinary powers to some extent.

Unfortunately, they paid an unbearable price.

They were all infected by the ancient virus that had hidden deep within the ruins for billions of years. As a result, they turned into twisted, hideous, and terrifying primeval monsters.

An ancient demonic creature was far more terrifying than a zombie or a body infected by the Blood Flower.

In other words, the zombie virus was a weakened version of the ancient virus. It was a product of the ancient virus' self-weakening to prolong its host's life as much as possible. This also aided in its concealment and transmission.

Before the virus was weakened, it did not care how long its host could live. Instead, it would burn its host from the inside to harness unparalleled manic power.

When these "super zombies" rushed out of the cracks and appeared before human beings, the citizens were all dumbfounded. At that point, they had not recovered from the shock of their transmigration as well as the following floods and earthquakes.

Fortunately, Dragon City's army system was still intact.

The army from earth had powerful hot weapons, a clear command system, and the courage to fight for all the citizens.

They heard roars that sounded like the cries of d*mned souls and saw black smoke that mixed with the stench of blood. Flames also rose from the burning underground cracks. Even so, the soldiers from Earth still jumped into "hell" without any hesitation or batting an eye.

This army, which had fine training and a glorious mission, sealed all the ancient demons with their bodies of flesh and blood that were cast from copper and iron.

They also used the military's advanced technology to conduct preliminary research on the ancient virus and developed a series of vaccines.

After all of Dragon City's citizens were injected with the vaccine, their immune system grew stronger. In the next ten years, they fought the ancient virus that constantly evolved as well. In the end, it evolved into the latest version of the zombie virus that could activate extraordinary powers. This in turn, opened a new era of spirit martial arts and rune technology.

Unfortunately, the army from Earth paid the price. They fulfilled their oath to all the citizens and fought to the last soldier.

They were completely annihilated.

Dragon City had just entered a ten-year-long bloody era without order and law.

However, it was not the army that ended this era but the mega corporations built by superhumans.

In spite of it all, the Red Dragon Army never forgot to restore its glory to this day.

However, in a world with extraordinary powers, it was not that easy to rebuild an army that was above the superhumans!

"In the past, the first batch of explorers who entered the ancient ruins were all ordinary people who had not awakened their extraordinary powers," Wu Haibo said to Meng Chao.

"But after they came into contact with the ancient virus, they exploded with astonishing power and turned into half-human, half-beast... no, half-human, half-demon beings.

"In the decades that followed, the superhumans explored the ancient ruins, but one after another, they were swallowed by the darkness. They resurfaced later but appeared unrecognizable.

"No... I can't really call it 'resurfacing.' It would be more appropriate to call it a 'rebirth.'

"I'm sure you've heard of the story where an explorer was 'reborn' from the ancient ruins. He slowly wrapped himself in a cocoon and broke out of it, didn't he?"

Meng Chao nodded.

It was a famous story.

It was specifically used to describe the oddities of the ancient ruins and warn all explorers, as well as staff members, to be on high alert at all times.

"But you probably haven't heard the second half of the story," Wu Haibo said with a face full of worry.

"To subdue the guy who broke out of the cocoon, we lost seven superhumans. Another nine were seriously injured, and three went crazy.

"This guy had only been a Three-star Spirit Gathering Realm superhuman before he entered the ancient ruins.

"Now, the one who's gone missing is the Battle God, Lei Zongchao, and he reached the Deity Realm decades ago!

"If he's truly dead or gone forever, it's fine.

"But on the small chance that he comes back... in a way that no one expects, what should we do then?"
