Chapter 771: The Monster’s Birth
The girl’s face on the Tree of Wisdom still wore a smile.
However, her smile was full of unspeakable sorrow and mockery.
“The leader changed.
“He gradually s.h.i.+fted his combat post from the frontline to a commanding position where he could control the whole situation. He no longer took the lead and faced death as calmly as he did in the past,” the Tree of Wisdom said gloomily.
“The leader also secretly h.o.a.rded a lot of monster flesh, spirit meridians, and high-level crystals for his own cultivation.
“In order to awaken and strengthen his extraordinary strength quickly, besides the monster flesh and the mother lodes of crystals, an astronomical amount of energy needed to be consumed. In other words, he had to eat ten times or a hundred times more than ordinary people.
“To make sure that the other townspeople did not discover this, the leader did not openly h.o.a.rd too much of the monster’s flesh and blood. Instead, he planned to seal packed biscuits and canned food in the depths of the warehouse. It should be known that these strategic supplies were Peach Blossom Town’s trump card. They were originally set aside for all the townspeople to help them tide over a worst-case scenario. Even the selfish powerhouses in the past did not squander them all. However, they were gradually devoured by the leader, leaving only empty wrappers.
“The leader was getting stronger and stronger.
“However, he became more and more stingy in contributing to Peach Blossom Town with his powerful strength. Strength itself seemed to have become his goal, which stimulated his ambition and greed to increase exponentially.
“In order to obtain more cultivation resources, the leader did not hesitate to deceive the townspeople into marching toward the place with the richest crystal veins and densest number of monster lairs.
“Of course, the slogans were pretty— ‘For the glory of mankind’s civilization’, ‘For Peach Blossom Town’s rebirth’, ‘Rebuilding a new Earth in a foreign land’, ‘To nip all hidden dangers that might threaten Peach Blossom Town in the bud’….
“However, when the ignorant townsfolk really fought b.l.o.o.d.y battles with the monsters and paid an extremely terrible price to capture the monster lairs, the largest and most precious materials always fell into the hands of the leader. The warriors, who were covered in wounds and on the verge of death, could only hope that some sc.r.a.ps would be left in the gaps of the leader’s fingers.
“The leader also had a grand reason for this distribution pattern—the monsters in the depths of the jungle were too powerful. Ordinary warriors were no match for them at all. Therefore, the leader had to continue growing stronger and reach peak combat strength in Peach Blossom Town. Only then could he fight powerful monsters and defend the fragile civilization.
“Haha, when I heard that, I really laughed my head off.
“n.o.body knew better than me that when the leader pretended to come to the depths of the jungle to ‘fight the powerful monsters’, his main purpose was to find the crystal lodes and ancient relics. However, he did not dare to engage in any b.l.o.o.d.y or bitter battles with the slightly stronger monsters. At most, he would pretend to burn part of the jungle, blow up a few mountains, and kill a few seemingly ferocious or powerful monsters that were in fact just mimicry or ordinary monsters. Even though he had ‘eliminated the greatest threat to Peach Blossom Town after an arduous battle’, he did not dare to fight against slightly stronger monsters.
“In fact, to obtain a crystal mine hidden under the mountain, the insane leader even detonated a large number of crystal bombs at the risk of changing the Raging Tiger River’s course and flooding it.
“The flash flood that followed the explosion resulted in almost a thousand casualties and sacrifices, but it also allowed the leader to obtain the key resources to raise his level. His combat ability rose to another level, and he became a terrifying existence that ordinary human beings could hardly defeat in numbers.
“Finally, someone saw through the clues and discovered the evidence of the leader’s crimes.
“The leader used a series of lightning-fast and cunning operations to pour dirty water on others, and even on the people who discovered the evidence.
“Faced with the leader’s tearful accusations, the scapegoats and even the people who discovered the evidence were all put on rubber tires by the furious townsfolk and executed according to tradition.
“However, the leader became increasingly bright, righteous, and powerful. He gradually became Peach Blossom Town’s guardian G.o.d.
“No one knew the leader’s background, except for me, as I had been watching and learning from the beginning.
“The leader’s series of magnificent operations really stunned me.
“If the first batch of powerhouses who ruled Peach Blossom Town were like selfish and cruel rats who did not hide their greed, then the leader of the second generation of rulers brought the art of deception to the limit.
“There was also deception among the monsters.
“The etherealized plants set traps to catch the insect-type monsters; the insect-type monsters grew colorful wings and imitated the patterns of powerful monsters; the reptilian monsters used the vocal organs on their tails to attract their prey. In the past, I thought that these tricks were quite interesting, and they were much more conscious than the simple and violent pouncing or hunting.
“However, compared with the lies of humans, such a clumsy, almost naïve trick was so low-level that it’s not worth mentioning at all!
“I suddenly realized that there are more than two forms of human beings besides ‘marching army ants’ and ‘fierce rats.’
“There is a third form, which is ‘fierce rats that pretend to be marching ants and demand everyone else to be marching ants!’
“Perhaps, the third form is what the leader of the human civilization should be.
“The leaders.h.i.+p in Peach Blossom Town is indeed much more stable than the simple and brutal experts in the past.
“He has learned the lesson of the first generation of experts. Although he is more ruthless and selfish than the first generation, he has made all kinds of heroic speeches, louder and more pleasant than anyone else.
“Although he has consumed all of Peach Blossom Town’d strategic resources, he haa come up with all kinds of ingenious ways to make up for it. Even if he can’t play the game anymore one day, by that time, he would have expanded into an existence that n.o.body can touch. Even if the townspeople know the truth, what can they do? They would just be a bunch of weaklings!
“Of course, he did not lower his guard when he led the motley crew to defeat the first generation of experts. Instead, he shared part of his cultivation resources and secrets with his own bloodline and confidants, creating a small group of experts with his own hands.
“They kept in mind the lessons learned from the past. The groups of experts would never kill each other. Instead, they focused on studying how to rule the weak. Even if there were occasional disagreements and conflicts, they were often just a show for the weak.
“With the organizations of the strong controlling most of the cultivation resources, they are more familiar with the environment in the depths of the mist, the crystal lodes, and the distribution of the monster lairs than the ordinary townsfolk. It would be much easier for them to put on a show of ‘the strong fighting the monsters and defending the civilization of mankind’.
“For the ignorant ordinary townsfolk, they only see the strong ‘fighting with their lives and achieving meritorious deeds’. They are ent.i.tled to more spoils of war, grow stronger, and achieve more meritorious deeds. Of course, they are also ent.i.tled to more resources and the respect of the townsfolk.
“Although the lives of the townsfolk are as bad as ever—the lack of resources, the lack of security, the most arduous and dangerous exploration, hunting, and mining operations, and being killed by floods, miasma, and monsters at any moment—all of this is due to the d*mned transmigration and Other World. It’s all the fault of the evil monsters. The leader and his experts have already done their best. What else can the townsfolk expect?
“You have to know that without the leader and experts, the ordinary townspeople would not even have such a poor, tiring and dangerous life. They would have been torn apart by the monsters long ago and died without a burial place!”
The Tree of Wisdom paused at this point and looked meaningfully at Meng Chao.
“Do you think that I’m mocking or even criticizing this leader?”It asked Meng Chao.
Meng Chao said, “Isn’t That So?”
“Of course not.”
The Tree of wisdom said, “I’ve said before that there is no good or evil, good or evil, black or white in nature. In other words, survival itself is the greatest justice. As long as we can let our race and genes continue, whether it’s army ants, ferocious rats, or ferocious rats disguised as army ants, nothing is impossible.
“Therefore, I will not evaluate the leader’s actions with any boring moral concepts. When I mention the words ‘despicable, ugly, evil, and deceit’, my att.i.tude is neutral.
“After all, the leader’s management model seems to be really stable and effective. Whether it is deceit, coercion, or bewitchment, he always mobilized and condensed the strength of all the citizens of the town of Utopia to build the so-called ‘civilization’together.
“At that time, I was nothing more than the amalgamation of ten thousand wild beasts that fed on raw meat and muddleheaded plants. I knew nothing about the true meaning of civilization. In front of the leader, I was not even a primary school student. How could I have the qualifications and courage to evaluate the leader’s actions?
“Confused and fearful, I only felt that the leader’s every step was profound; every scheme and scheme was the crystallization of the wisdom of the human civilization; every time he killed a fellow human being, and every time he commanded his fellow human beings to dig out a crystal from a mine filled with radiation with lies, he would be able to make a great leap forward for the civilization. In the end, he would once again create incredible artifacts such as ‘rockets’and touch or even control the stars.
“As a primary school student, if I want to imitate the leader and create a small civilization, other than imitating you step by step and infusing the most evil wisdom, the most brutal character, the most greedy ambition, and the craziest desire of mankind into the depths of the brain of the monster, what else can I Do?”
Meng Chao’s pupils suddenly contracted. “What did you say?”
“I’m talking about the birth of a monster.”
The tree of wisdom said calmly, “In the past, other than being immersed in spiritual energy for a long period of time, the monsters were no different from ordinary wild beasts except for having greater strength, louder roars, more ferocious faces, and innate skills such as electric discharge, acid spraying, poison poisoning, fire control, freezing, fear, charm, and so on.
“However, injecting the strongest emotions and memory fragments of human beings into the brain of these beasts was a completely different matter
