Chapter 1749
Chapter 1749 The Calm Trapped Beast
Meng Chao’s figure continued to shine in Yun Feidan’s eyes.
Yun Feidian did not even bat an eye.
His clothes were very plain, unbecoming of his identity as the leader of the second-generation Deity Realm experts in Dragon City.
He was middle-aged, but he still looked the same as he did when he was young. He had a plain buzz cut, and he was clean-shaven. He was also wearing a plaid shirt that had been washed until it turned white, a pair of jeans with cat’s whiskers, and gray suede running shoes.
!!
The sleeves of his plaid shirt, the legs of his jeans, and the edges of his running shoes were all full of signs of wear and tear.
At first glance, he did not look like the head of Thundercloud Technology, which was the most famous among the nine mega corporations. Instead, he looked like a rookie programmer who had just joined the company.
For one, he dressed like that to cater to the current trend and show that he was outstanding but ordinary and approachable.
On top of that, Yun Feidan was a proud man. He did not think that there were many people in the entire Dragon City worthy enough to gain his respect and see him in a suit and leather shoes.
The thing was, his facial expressions were often stiff and sluggish.
It was said that this was the after-effect of over-cultivating when he was young and almost turning berserk.
It was not a big deal. It did not affect his normal work, thinking, and cultivation.
However, it made him look like a robot with human skin on his face.
Yun Feidian’s nerves were also made of metal, like that of a robot.
Even though he was in such a bad situation, he was still calm and composed. He even asked his men to pull a leather stool over so that he could put his feet on it.
On the screens next to him, there were fat faces covered in sweat and pale faces, but none of them were as calm as he was.
“Yun Feidian, are you crazy? Why did you blow up the Golden Roc?”
“You’re seeking your own death, and you want to drag everyone down with you!”
“Were you also behind the rat tide outbreak and the zombie tide at the city center? You… You’re crazy!”
The upstarts of the business world, who often appeared on the cover of business journals, were all pointing at Yun Feidian and shouting as if they had heart disease and cerebral infarction at the same time. They were heartbroken and regretful.
There were also some people with unkempt hair, blank eyes, and dejected faces. Stubbles were growing out of their skin at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“Meng chao? Meng Chao!”
“He’s still alive? This is impossible! How could he still be alive?!”
“He has already reached the Deity Realm. A Deity Realm expert who isn’t even thirty years old? You must be joking!”
These people were all members of the Blood Alliance.
They were Yun Feidian’s accomplices.
With an astronomical amount of funds under their names and behind them, they reached an agreement on strategic cooperation with Thundercloud Technology. In many projects, they were closely linked in the form of cross holding.
Their original plan had been perfect.
In the name of the “big explosion of the Red Creek Project’s crystal warehouse,” the North Advancement Plan would be smoothly passed by the Survival Committee. The nine mega corporations would be fully in charge of the “corporate war,” leaving the Red Dragon Army behind.
The Golden Roc, which was about to be completed, would certainly shine in this war that was destined to end in victory.
Even if the Golden Roc was not equipped with 100% combat power, so what?
The indigenous people in the lower and middle reaches of the Raging Tiger River, who had been captured in the past six months, were all ugly, skinny, and low in intelligence. They did not have much combat power at all.
It did not matter even if there were hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands more of these ignorant and lowly half-human half-beast existences. They were like ants that could be crushed by the steel torrent of humans at any time.
Perhaps, there would not be any tragic war at all. All they needed to do was fly the Golden Roc to the center of the lower and middle reaches of the Raging Tiger River and exert pressure on the local natives. The natives would panic and worship the humans on the Golden Roc as gods, and they would take whatever they wanted.
Thundercloud Technology was in charge of the Golden Roc’s software and hardware engineering.
For the time being, Yun Feidian was the person who understood it the most in the entire Dragon City.
Once war broke out and a state of emergency occurred, only Thundercloud Technology and Yun Feidian would be in charge of mobilizing the Golden Roc in advance.
In addition, the senior members of the Blood Alliance were all staunch hawks of the nine mega corporations and the young men who controlled the company’s armed forces.
Of course, they would reap the most war benefits from the upcoming victory.
At that time, not only would their status in their respective families and businesses rise.
Once everyone’s strength was gathered, the Blood Alliance would be able to step onto history’s stage again in an upright manner!
They might not completely control Dragon City.
Nevertheless, in the middle and lower reaches of the Raging Tiger River, or even in the depths of the even more boundless Other World, it would absolutely be possible for them to split the soil and be conferred the title of marquis at the very least.
It was originally a foolproof plan.
It was also the reason why the ambitious new nobles in the circle of superhumans from rich families were willing to work for Yun Feidian and risk universal condemnation time and time again.
Unexpectedly, there were big mistakes from the beginning of the plan.
After that, Yun Feidian’s sweet words and carrot-and-stick tactics forced them to take risks. They fell deeper and deeper, yet they still could not handle the matter properly.
At this moment, Yun Feidian had even blown up the Golden Roc. How could they not be infuriated and frightened?
“Why are you panicking?”
Facing his useless accomplices, Yun Feidian sneered and said with contempt, “Of course there are risks in doing great things. You must be prepared to pay a huge price. What’s a mere floating fortress? As long as we can seize control of Dragon City, even ten Golden Roc ships can be destroyed!
“You! You’re insane!”
“Yun Feidian!” One of the accomplices on the screen widened his bloodshot eyes as if he had just seen Yun Feidian’s real face for the first time. He berated him. “Yun Feidian, you’re still daydreaming at a time like this!
“Meng Chao has captured dozens of your subordinates alive. He has dug out the control chips and self-destructing devices in their bodies. He-He has even found the scraps of the core components in the super crystal bomb that you used to blow up the Golden Roc. They are carved with complicated, unprecedented runes!
“The evidence is conclusive and unpardonable. You’re finished. We’re all finished!”
These words made Yun Feidian burst into laughter.
Due to the damage to his facial nerves, his smile was stiff and hideous.
“How is this irrefutable evidence?”
His face was full of disdain. “You guys don’t think that I personally went out and transformed those guys, do you?”
“From the beginning to the end, those guys never saw me. They were just in a normal employment relationship with Thundercloud Technology or the Golden Roc construction project.
“When they joined the Blood Alliance, they were implanted with devices after accepting the modification. They only knew that they were loyal to the leader of the Blood Alliance, but they had no clue who the leader was exactly.
“Even if they can’t stand the interrogation and confess everything, how will it connect to me or you?”
