Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 1904: Today Is More Important Than Tomorrow

1904 Today Is More Important Than Tomorrow “Then, what about hatred?”

Meng Chao continued asking, “After thirty years of war, the blood of countless warriors on both sides has already gathered into a vast ocean. Waves of shock are surging in everyone’s hearts all the time. How are you going to overcome this irreconcilable hatred and form a new alliance with your sworn enemy who has killed your friends and family?”

“It’s very simple. We find a scapegoat and push all the blame on him.”

Gu Shaoyu paused for a moment and smiled. “Strictly speaking, you’re not a scapegoat, because the war broke out because of your efforts, Palace Master. You’re the main culprit who started the war, the historical sinner who destroyed the harmonious friendship between the Earthlings and the Holy Light humans, and the insane warmonger. All the sins were caused by you. The other Earthlings were deceived, deceived, and coerced by you. We’re all victims.

“What do you think?

“Similarly, the Holy Light faction will also push out a few war criminals who will take the blame, such as the Baroque Territory’s Duke of Raging Lions, and the leaders of the elves and dwarves. Since the war has seriously weakened the strength of the Holy Light humans, the power struggle within the Holy Light faction is also very intense. The elves and dwarves seem to want to join forces to challenge the leadership position of the Holy Light humans within the camp. This is also one of the reasons why the Holy Light humans are eager to negotiate with us, stop the fire, and even join forces.

“I know that blaming the war crimes on a few people is not enough to convince everyone. However, the war in the other world has been going on for a long time, and the degree of devastation is far greater than that of the monster war. Apart from lunatics like you, Palace Master, not many people are willing to continue throwing more lives into the endless abyss. ‘Peace’ is the general trend. As long as there is an insignificant excuse, everyone will accept it half-heartedly.”

“This kind of peace is destined to not last long.”

Meng Chao said coldly, “You and the Holy Light human race are nothing more than two injured ferocious beasts. You’re using each other to fight for a bit of time to catch your breath. When you lick your wounds and recover your vitality, you’ll continue fighting until you’re dead.”

Gu Shaoyu’s eyes widened as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

“In this world, is there any other relationship between people, camps, and civilizations besides mutual use?”

He said matter-of-factly, “Don’t tell me that the Turan orcs, the undead liches, the Frost Barbarians, the ogres, the abyssfolk, and us aren’t just using each other, but are sincerely trying to fuse with each other?

“Don’t joke around, my palace master. Didn’t you have a comprehensive plan long ago? You planned to carefully design and think of ways to lure the main forces of the Turan orcs, undead liches, Frost Barbarians, ogres, and abyssfolk into fighting against the last, most elite, and craziest forces of the Holy Light faction until both sides suffered heavy losses. Then, the Turan civilization would dominate the entire Other World?

“By the same logic, do you think that the Chaos faction is made up of brawny, simple-minded idiots who will be at our mercy?

“How is that possible?

“According to the information that the Holy Light Temple has shared with us, with the Doomsday Werewolf, Kanus as the leader, all the Chaos races have reached a secret agreement long ago to create a special situation in the final stage of the war. The elite main force of Dragon City civilization, including the three great legions of Broken Star Club, Superstar Company, and Battle God Palace, will be pushed to the forefront of the battle line to face the craziest and most terrifying force of the Holy Light faction.

“Based on the secret treaty signed by the Chaos races, our Dragon City civilization is the enemy second only to the Holy Light Temple. Once the Holy Light Temple completely collapses, we will be promoted to the number one enemy of the Chaos races. At that time, these ‘close allies’ who have fought alongside us for decades will attack us at the same time from all fronts!”

Meng Chao fell silent.

He was not so naive as to think that the Chaos races were all unwavering allies who would never betray the alliance under any circumstances.

This was because he had never taken this so-called “alliance formed by blood” to heart since the moment he signed the alliance thirty years ago.

He did not believe a single word of this covenant.

However, he did not expect that the intelligence network that he had painstakingly built for thirty years was still unable to grasp all the information about the Other World in real time. As a result, even the Holy Light Temple had heard of such fatal information, but he was still unaware of it.

“You can rest assured, Palace Master. The nine great cultivation families are very clear about the dangers and fanaticism of the Holy Light Temple. We also know that at some point in the future, the war between us and the Holy Light Temple that will determine the rule of the Other World will definitely erupt again.”

Gu Shaoyu continued, “However, let the people of the future have a headache. For us who live in the present, today is more important than tomorrow.

“If you are not in your position, you will not be able to do anything about it. Only by seizing the highest power today will you be qualified to plan for a better future tomorrow, right?”

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes.

A certain sentence from Gu Shaoyu had evoked his memories, and layers of ripples spread in his heart.

‘Today is more important than tomorrow?

‘I think I’ve heard this saying somewhere before?’

Before he could recall the details from decades ago, an explosion from afar interrupted his thoughts.

Meng Chao watched with his mouth agape as he pushed Dragon City with all his might. Dragon City, which he had painstakingly built for many years, burst into dazzling flames everywhere.

He did not need to observe carefully to determine that the offices, warehouses, R&D centers, and even the high-end residential areas built for the management and senior technicians of Superstar Company in Dragon City had all been attacked within half a minute.

Raging flames soared into the sky. The rolling black smoke was like deformed and twisted ghost claws. They tore apart the grand blueprint that he had designed for the Dragon City civilization a hundred years later.

Even the headquarters of Superstar Company, a super building that was even sturdier and more glorious than the Supernatural Tower in the past, was trembling nonstop because of the violent burning and the serial explosions. It was showing signs of crumbling or even falling apart.

“No…”

‘Impossible!’ Meng Chao roared hysterically in the depths of his heart. ‘This is impossible. My future, the future of Dragon City civilization, should never be like this!’ The entire world fell into darkness as he roared.
