Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 1777



1777 Chess Master

Five minutes later, Yun Feidian was around sixty meters underground in a dark world that was as complicated as a maze.

When he looked around, all he saw were long and dark tunnels. No light could be seen.

!!

Even if he activated his superhuman sight, he could only see the vague outlines of skulls on the mottled walls, which served as symbols of danger.

Back when Dragon City was still part of Earth, this place acted as a hub for the underground traffic system.

However, after Dragon City transmigrated to the Other World, the underground traffic hub was utterly destroyed by the powerful storm formed by the space and time torrent.

Since such a drastic change happened to the terrain, the price required to repair the underground traffic system was exorbitantly high. It would be better for them to build a brand new one based on the new terrain.

As for the old routes, they were turned into underground shelters and armories during their war against monsters.

During the hardest and bloodiest days of the war, these shelters provided a safe haven for countless humans, who stayed here and rested while waiting for a chance to fight back. Once they recovered from their wounds, they charged to the surface again to reclaim their living spaces.

As Dragon City switched from being on the defense to being on the offense, the monster civilization found it increasingly hard to invade Dragon City. Hence, the military value of these underground facilities dropped exponentially.

After they won the Monster War, the modification plans for the old underground facilities were put on the agenda.

However, just like the modifications of old factories, the government faced great difficulty in the modification of these underground facilities due to a limitation of funds and challenges in getting investments, setting up the general plan for the modifications, as well as other reasons. It remained unknown just when these underground facilities that carried with them the mark of old age would be born anew.

Since they had fallen behind in maintenance, they faced severe water ingress. Water that reached the height of Yun Feidian’s knees was everywhere within the dark tunnels.

Despite the heavy military backpack on his back, Yun Feidian floated on the water and continued forward soundlessly in the tunnel as if he were a weightless ghost.

Just then, something resembling the eyes of monsters flashed before him.

Yun Feidian knew that those were the underground security and alarm systems set up by the relevant department. They had been set up to monitor the movements of underground monsters.

Meanwhile, the security and alarm systems had been made by Thundercloud Technology’s technical team. In fact, Yun Feidian himself had created them.

Yun Feidian blinked.

He brought out a piece of fabric that shone like mithril in the dark but was thinner than a cicada’s wing and softer than silk. After he flung it open, it spread out like a cloak.

He placed the thin and light “cloak” on his body and sashayed his way to the security and alarm systems.

Just as he expected, even if he stood still in front of the security cameras and stared at the halos that kept expanding and contracting within the detectors, the security and alarm systems did not react to his presence in the slightest.

It was as if all of his bioinformation had been absorbed by his “invisibility cloak.”

Yun Feidian grinned and continued forward for five minutes. After turning into a collapsed corner, the area ahead of him became wider. He reached a natural solutional cave, which was covered in gray moss and had all sorts of stalactites as well as strange-looking rocks.

Strewn about at the bottom of the black water in the cave were the skeletons of old trains.

The trains were covered in rust and moss. Their bodies told the tales of the chaos and destruction created by the repeated tearing and overlapping of space and time as Dragon City transmigrated to the Other World.

However, plenty of vermin and pests treated these trains as their nests. They produced their offspring here like the stubborn creatures they were.

They were not monsters, just normal living creatures in the Other World.

Still, these normal creatures in the Other World possessed even more tenacious and indomitable vitality than the monsters.

No matter what kind of high-tech equipment humans used to kill them, they could not get rid of these creatures completely.

Yun Feidian scanned the entire solutional cave to make sure that there was nothing abnormal in the place.

Just as he was about to continue forward, his smile suddenly froze on his face. He narrowed his eyes and fixed his stare on a dark part ten meters away.

Even if an Apocalyptic Beast was lurking over there, Yun Feidian would not have been so surprised.

Instead, standing quietly in that spot was not a dangerous monster but a seemingly ordinary middle-aged man.

He had short, light-gray hair, and he was wearing a gray trench coat. He gave off the aura of the average man. In fact, he appeared to be quite cautious of his surroundings. He was just like any other frowning office worker who could be found everywhere in the subway during rush hours.

He would be like the sand in a desert anywhere else in the city. He would not have caught the attention of any person or any security system.

Hence, this normal-looking office worker could not have so accurately figured out the escape route of the Blood Alliance’s leader.

He could not possibly continue to stare at him calmly and be completely unguarded while Yun Feidian’s hair stood on end as he gave off an aggressive air so great that his murderous aura caused the stones around him to crack. To be honest, he was about to unleash fire and lightning at any moment.

But Yun Feidian’s killing intent disappeared in an instant, as though he finally recognized who that person was.

A self-mocking but fierce grin formed on his lips.

“I knew it,” Yun Feidian mumbled, but he also sounded like he was mocking the man. “You’ve never trusted me, and neither have you ever treated me as an equal partner. In your eyes, everyone else aside from you is your pawn, including me.

“Since we’re pawns, you won’t let us break free from the path you’ve set for us.

“Unfortunately, you might think you’re a chess master who planned it all and has control of everything, but you encountered Meng Chao, who never does things according to convention. You lost, badly at that.

“Since your plans and deductive abilities aren’t as perfect as you claimed them to be, there’s no need for you to keep pretending to be some unfathomable prophet. You no longer have the right to order me around!”

“Of course.”

Yun Feidian’s words did not make the seemingly ordinary middle-aged office worker angry.

He just nodded calmly and spoke in a hoarse voice that had been modified. “Things have progressed in a way I didn’t foresee. I have to be wholly responsible for this failure. Similarly, I can understand why you no longer trust me. I won’t force you if you won’t go to the secret shelter I’ve prepared.”

“Beautiful lies, but still lies.”

A red glare that glowed like lava shone in Yun Feidian’s eyes. “I’ve already lost. Thundercloud Company is about to collapse.

“The mega corporations under your name might already be ready to feast on Thundercloud Technology to become even stronger. I’m the one who made all the sacrifices, but not a single hair on your head is hurt. How can you even claim that you’ll be wholly responsible for this failure?!

“Even as I think about it, I still don’t understand how I could have believed in your fabulous lies so easily. Could it be that you have another identity aside from the one you’re using publicly? Are you also a top-class psychologist who’s skilled in lying and manipulating people?”
