Chapter 1604: 1604

Shen Yuanbao fell into deep thought.

His gaze on Meng Chao became particularly different.

It was as if it was his first time meeting Dragon City’s rising star.

“So?”

He went straight to the point. “After deducing everything in the nightmare, do you want to exterminate the nine mega corporations like Lu Siya?”

“I don’t want to go that far. After all, the nine mega corporations have contributed to the Dragon City Civilization.”

Meng Chao said, “From the era when order and law were broken and the strong preyed on the weak to the time when the Blood Alliance ruled Dragon City, it has been a kind of progress. No matter how evil the Blood Alliance was, it still brought a brand-new order to the transmigrated Dragon City. At the very least, it was the dawn of order.

“And from the Blood Alliance, which treated human lives like dirt, to the nine mega corporations, it was another kind of progress. As you said, Senior Shen, the nine mega corporations brought the ‘rules of the game.’ Whether the rules were fair or not, it was better than the Blood Alliance, which had no rules and relied solely on violence.

“Not to mention, the founders of the nine mega corporations were all Deity Realm fighters, superheroes, and idols in the hearts of countless people who had defended Dragon City for decades.

“You were either fighting against the monsters on the front line with a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, protecting the last home of mankind, or…

“You were like Senior Lu Zhongqi and Senior Lu of Sky Pillar Corporation, who fought day and night in the deepest part of the mother lode of crystals. They endured the excruciating pain of radiation and cell mutation that far exceeded their limits, establishing the foundation of spirit energy and crystallography.

“Or, you were like those who lived in the major laboratories and research institutes, developing all kinds of incredible genetic drugs and spirit machines, which made our world more exciting than science fiction.

“It doesn’t matter what your original intention was, whether it was purely to protect Dragon City and your compatriots, or whether you were ambitious and pursued profit and power—even if it was the latter, I feel that it’s understandable. The motive isn’t important. As long as your contributions objectively helped more people live a better life, it’s enough.

“The problem is that there is a limit to everything. As the saying goes, ‘too much is too little.’ It is just like how the stronger a superhuman is, the easier it is for him to go crazy. When an organization breaks through the limit and becomes so deformed that it can not bear it, it will suffer a backlash. From the inside out, it will gradually collapse and become a high-probability event.

“Senior Shen keeps saying that Lu Siya has ulterior motives and is stirring up trouble.

“This is not necessarily the truth.

“However, the problems of the Shen family and Universe Corporation were not caused by Lu Siya.

“Just now, those people’s performance was unsightly.

“The adopted sons and the blood descendants were divided into two camps to attack each other. Everyone had a little plan in their hearts. When they climbed up the ranks by all means, they left all kinds of dirt. These dirt became weapons for them to fight openly and secretly. As long as they could defeat the other party, they did not care about the overall interests of the family and the business, not to mention the overall situation of Dragon City.

“Besides, there is a conspirator who colluded with the Blood Alliance to assassinate my father.

“Did Lu Siya turn these people into such people?

“At most, Lu Siya tore open the bloody scabs and showed the ulcers below.

“Even without Lu Siya, the ulcers were still there, and they were deepening and expanding.

“Even without Lu Siya, without me, without the Azure Alliance, without Battle God Alliance, and without the Red Dragon Army, based on their performance just now, Senior Shen, do you really believe that they would be able to go on an expedition and fight to the death with the heroes of the natives of the other world, the peerless experts who had driven the monsters here?

His words hit Shen Yuanbao where it hurt the most.

After a long time, he sighed and said sadly, “I didn’t teach my son well.”

“I don’t think it has much to do with whether I taught my son well or not.”

Meng Chao said, “The problem lies in the concept of the ‘nine mega corporations’. The illness of a big corporation can not be cured by personal ethics or unparalleled military strength.”

Shen Yuanbao looked at Meng Chao and resumed his initial address, “Little friend Meng, what do you want?”

“I want to help you.”

Meng Chao said seriously, “We are not irreconcilable enemies, and Universe Corporation is not some heinous criminal gang. I have no intention of killing all of you. On the contrary, I want to stabilize the situation to the maximum and preserve Dragon City’s vitality, just like you. Only then can we face a wider world and a larger scale of turbulent waves.”

“Continue.”

Shen Yuanbao said, “I really want to know how you plan to stabilize the situation and preserve your vitality.”

“This doesn’t depend on me, but on you, Senior Shen. It depends on whether or not you have the courage to face the inside of the blade, scrape your bones, heal your wounds, or even break your wrists.”

Meng Chao said, “Shen Chengyi is right. Times have changed. As more and more middle-level and low-level superhumans from poor families took advantage of the ubiquitous network, a high degree of organization and self-organization appeared.

“Cultivation techniques and facilities have become more and more popular, intelligent, and ‘idiotic.’ Superhuman power has gradually entered every household.

“The era where the nine mega corporations and the nine cultivation families can control the sky with one hand and the sky with one hand forever is destined to be gone forever.

“If you don’t want to be smashed into pieces by the tide of the times, you can only embrace change and stand on the tide of the times.

“If you don’t want others to take Universe Corporation as an example, you can only take the initiative to perform a surgery that goes deep into your bones and touches your soul to completely remove Universe Corporation’s focus!”

“How can I remove the focus?” Shen Yuanbao asked sincerely.

“This question is too huge and complicated. I’ve thought about it for a long time, but there is still no perfect answer. Perhaps, there is no perfect answer at all.”

Meng Chao said, “However, I think that there are a few things that the nine mega corporations and the nine noble families of cultivation must do. Even if you don’t do it, the situation will force you to do it. Otherwise, it will be a one-time deal, and everyone will be finished together.”

“Which few things?” Shen Yuanbao asked.

“First of all, the nine mega corporations must completely withdraw from the water, electricity, and synthetic food industries, which involve public services.”

Meng Chao resolutely said, “The citizens of Dragon City have the most basic rights to eat, drink, and use electricity and gas. They must not be controlled by a small group of peerless experts. They must be controlled by the citizens of Dragon City themselves and by the Survival Committee, which is supported by all the citizens.”

Shen Yuanbao was noncommittal.

Universe Corporation mainly engaged in mining, smelting, and metal processing.

Its involvement in public services, such as water and electricity, was not deep.

A small concession could win the support of Meng Chao, a rising supernova.

That was not unacceptable.
