Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 1914: One Percent Chance of Victory

1914 One Percent Chance of Victory The nine great families might not be without generals.

However, since he had been managing the nine mega corporations for too long, he could not get rid of the calculative spirit of the market.

When there was no advantage, he would make three or four excuses, and he would not move forward because of fear.

Seeing the bait thrown out by the enemy, he was immediately blinded by greed, and he forgot everything.

As a result, the last few elite mobile troops that Dragon City had tempered in the thirty-year war in the Other World were brought into the Holy Light faction’s encirclement by the commanders from the nine great families.

At the moment, the Chaos faction still occupied the vast central and southern regions of the Other World.

However, aside from the garrison troops with low combat strength, there were not many mobile troops that could be deployed to rescue them.

Meng Chao’s Superstar Legion, Broken Star Legion, and Battle God Legion had suffered heavy casualties after years of fierce battles. Many of the steel army soldiers who had made great contributions only retained their titles, and all the elites who had been through hundreds of battles turned into piles of bones.

Due to the nine great families’ overt and covert attacks, Meng Chao could not get enough troops and supplies to replenish his forces. They were left with empty skeletons, and they were like hungry beasts licking their wounds. How could they have the strength to go to the rescue?

Outside the Dragon City civilization, the Turan orcs still retained some of their valiant strength.

However, the demonic Doomsday Wolf, Kanus, was an extremely intelligent person. He had long seen that the people of the nine major families were a bunch of unworthy people.

He had instigated Meng Chao many times to imitate what he had done in Picturesque Orchid Lake. He had utilized drastic measures to completely eradicate the nine great families and become the true master of Dragon City.

In this way, the Dragon City civilization and the Turan civilization, under the leadership of two equally matched overlords, would have a chance to sincerely collaborate and support each other.

However, Meng Chao remembered the lesson he had learned from his previous life, and he was afraid of the Doomsday Wolf’s wild ambitions, so he did not accept his suggestion.

Kanus saw Meng Chao rise and fall, but he did not have the courage to cross the line. Instead, he became a clay idol that anyone could manipulate. He gradually lost hope for Meng Chao, the nine great families, and the entire Dragon City civilization.

On the battlefield, the Dragon City cavalry and the Turan warriors gradually drifted apart. They were often in charge of a large battlefield and were only allies in name.

This time, a so-called fighter jet had appeared at the Windhunter Defense Line. The nine great families did not inform their Turan allies. Instead, they wanted to march straight in and occupy a large area of fertile land. After the facts were established, they would report their victory to their allies.

However, they were ambushed from all sides as a result. Yet, they were expecting Doomsday Wolf Kanus to send troops to rescue them?

They were overestimating the Corpse-eating Dog’s kindness!

Meng Chao thought about it repeatedly, but he still could not find a foolproof plan. The anger that he had accumulated over the years only turned into a helpless sigh.

“Teacher, we definitely can’t go to the Windhunter Defense Line and save them.”

Gu Shaoyu took the opportunity to say, “For now, we can only retreat to Dragon City and carefully think things over.”

Meng Chao understood what he meant.

It was to take advantage of the fact that the elites of the nine great families were trapped at the Windhunter Defense Line. They could now gather all the remaining forces of the Dragon City civilization and retreat to Picturesque Orchid Lake and even Monster Mountain Range.

After all, it was the Dragon City civilization’s lair that had been in operation for nearly a hundred years, and the Turan orcs could also act as shields. If the Holy Light faction wanted to finish their work in one go, it would probably not be so easy.

The elites of the nine great families had a total of several hundred thousand troops. No matter how weak they were, they should be able to resist the Holy Light faction for at least thirty to fifty days, right?

As long as they were given a buffer period of thirty to fifty days, they could calmly retreat to the back of the line when the battle started. It was not impossible for them to wait for new changes.

Of course, there were too many things to give up.

Meng Chao could imagine just how much resistance he would face and how much people would curse him.

To eliminate resistance and prevent infamy in the near future, he had to break the law and cross the line of humanity like he had in the previous future. He would need to resort to any means necessary.

The problem was, if he were willing to resort to unscrupulous means, he would have been able to make the decision to kill and conquer decades ago. Why would he have to wait until today, when he was at the end of his rope?

From the looks of it, this diligent, selfless, and considerate version of him was inferior to the previous future’s tyrant?

A mocking smile appeared on Meng Chao’s old and tired face.

Before he could make up his mind, a wave of noise suddenly rang outside the window.

Meng Chao was slightly stunned. He saw that the traffic and people on the streets and in alleys seemed to be entangled by invisible ghosts at the same time. There was chaos everywhere.

Not only did several high-speed floating cars collide with each other, but the pedestrians also ran around in a panic like headless flies on a hot pan.

Even the armored airships belonging to the nine major families in the sky above Dragon City activated their crystal engines simultaneously and flew to their respective bases.

Meng Chao and Gu Shaoyu exchanged looks. and saw an ominous light in the depths of each other’s eyes.

A moment later, a pale-faced Battle God Palace disciple came forward and reported ,”Emergency military intelligence!

“The enemy has broken through the Windhunter Defense Line. The seven battalions that were surrounded have chosen to surrender!

“The remaining eleven were divided into three by the enemy and the surrendered soldiers. They’ve lost almost all their ammunition and supplies. It’s estimated that they won’t last more than a week!

“The vanguards of the enemy, the Radiant Winged Knights, have already appeared in the area around Fallen Star Lake. They’re only three hundred kilometers away from Dragon City!”

…

Meng Chao slowly woke up from the deep sea of endless possibilities.

Looking at the extremely bleak future before him, he fell into deep thought once more.

Without a doubt, he had failed again.

On top of that, he was defeated even more miserably this time.

In the end, he had underestimated the wisdom of the people from the nine great families. With that said, they had also overestimated themselves.

As the Dragon City elites who were surrounded chose to surrender or even switch sides, there was no more suspense in the situation.

Meng Chao did not have time to gather the defeated soldiers and retreat into Monster Mountain Range with a large group of people and resources.

Even if they could kill their way out, they would only be able to survive in Monster Mountain Range and wait for death.

“It doesn’t matter.

“Although I’ve lost twice in a row, it’s not like I’ve gained nothing.

“At the very least, I’ve found two more ‘wrong answers’ and accumulated more experience and lessons.”

Meng Chao’s eyes shone brightly.

This time, he was not as dispirited as he was after the last failure.

It was because he knew that the future had infinite possibilities. Even if 99% of the possibilities ended in failure and destruction, as long as he kept trying, learning from his experience, thinking, and growing, he would find the one percent chance of victory one day!
