Chapter 1706: The True Culprit Behind the Beast Tide

Accompanied by the crystal engines’ rapid roar, a large number of vehicles rushed in all directions.

Even if some people were still hesitant, the horns behind them would urge them to give up thinking and run away.

Fortunately, most drivers in recent times had experience driving through the rugged mud in the wilderness. They were able to withstand the collision of monsters and move as fast as lightning.

Despite the extremely chaotic scene before them, they did not have any serious collisions.

Soon, a large number of vehicles left the surveillance range of the Azure Alliance members.

This included the vehicles that the Blood Alliance’s Ghost Assassins had driven and hidden.

The van that Lu Siya was imprisoned in had originally been surrounded by several members of the Azure Alliance.

The nearest?Blue Armband¹?had only been a step away from the driver’s seat.

However, with the outbreak of the rat tide and the appearance of zombies, all the members of the Azure Alliance had no choice but to focus on maintaining order and protecting the citizens.

The Blue Armband that was closest to the van hesitated for a moment and saw a wave of rats surging toward him like a black flood.

He would have been completely covered and devoured.

So, he could only summon his spirit energy and turn around to fight.

The Ghost Assassin driving the van took the opportunity to rev the crystal engine to the maximum. He scratched two cars next to him and left, leaving a series of sparks behind.

The Blue Armband was shocked. He was about to turn around when a few rats with bloody stripes jumped onto his body.

He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. The muscles all over his body were twitching, and he was jumping around as if he had been electrocuted. How could he care about the suspicious vehicle?

At that moment, only one person was still locked onto the van in the city’s chaotic battlefield: Meng Chao.

“What the hell is this?”

Meng Chao’s eyes were as dark as ink.

He clenched his fists tightly, and electric arcs curled between his fingers.

The veins on the back of his hands were like raging flood dragons, writhing wildly between his flesh and blood.

No one knew better than him how terrifying the monster mastermind was.

It was a super life form that originated billions of years ago and had once occupied the entire planet’s surface. Even after being bombarded by space-based orbital weapons, it was not completely annihilated. Those weapons were not like the floods of steel from Earth, which could be wiped out.

It was just that, who set off the rat tide?

Was it Lu Siya?

On the surface, as a monster puppet, wild banshee, and the tenth Supernatural Entity, Lu Siya, was naturally the first suspect to trigger the rat tide.

However, no matter how Meng Chao thought about it, he could not think of even half a reason for Lu Siya to set off the rat tide right then.

If it was to create chaos at the center of Dragon City…

Then the tens of thousands of angry citizens surrounding Universe Corporation’s headquarters a few days ago would have been the best opportunity.

Since Lu Siya had chosen not to add fuel to the fire at that time, but stood up and calmed the situation instead, it was unlikely for her to choose such a stupid method to stir up trouble again in a few days.

After all, the people of Dragon City were a race of fighters that had been tempered through decades of blood and fire.

Setting off a rat tide at the city center could certainly cause a period of chaos.

But the people of Dragon City would never be completely defeated by a mere rat tide.

On the contrary, the rat tide’s appearance would only grant the people of Dragon City, who had returned to their senses, full vigilance against the monster civilization and a deep-rooted hatred.

Thinking from the monster civilization’s perspective, the enemy was strong and they were weak. Hence, a large number of monster puppets had infiltrated Dragon City.

Should the best strategy not be to continue keeping a low profile, developing wretchedly, and subtly changing the identity and stance of more people of Dragon City?

What was the point of such actions, which would alert the enemy and make the people of Dragon City raise their vigilance and gather their fighting will for the monster civilization?

More importantly…

“Lu Siya isn’t in the condition to commit a crime at all.

“The scale of the rat outbreak isn’t small. It seems that tens of millions of rats have been lurking deep underground for a long time.

“But Dragon City’s underground is full of surveillance, alarm, and automatic defense systems.

“Without a mole’s help, it would be very difficult for such a large-scale rat tide to stay underground for ten days to half a month without being discovered.

“The problem is that because of the underground construction’s large scale, the technical requirements are high, and the profits are abundant.

“Most of the construction, operations, and maintenance contracts have been contracted by the nine mega corporations.

“The more than ten underground railway lines and the ancillary underground facilities in Dragon City, including the surveillance, alarm, and defense systems, have all been handled by the nine mega corporations from the construction to the maintenance to the upgrade.

“It was not until Superstar Company rose up strongly in recent years and collaborated with the Red Dragon Army that the contracts for several new lines were secured.

“However, the new lines are all located in the suburbs, the new districts, and the satellite cities nearby.

“This area is the most mature part of Dragon City. The underground rail transit lines that pass through here are only the No. 1, No. 3, and No. 4 lines. They are the most popular and profitable lines. Neither Superstar Company nor the Azure Alliance has the chance to intervene. Naturally, it’s impossible for Lu Siya to make too much noise here!”

Meng Chao quickly searched through the data in his head to find out who the operators and maintainers of the underground rail transit lines 1,3, and 4 were.

Very soon, his pupils constricted into two sharp needles.

“Thundercloud Technology!

“Although the construction of the project is different, with the continuous expansion of Thundercloud Technology in recent years, a lot of black technology suitable for underground monitoring and alerting has been developed. In addition, Yun Feidian is a good worker and he has conducted various transactions with various mega corporations in exchange for the operating rights of several underground rail transit lines!

“The underground space on this block is monitored and guarded by Thundercloud Technology!

“If Yun Feidian were to steal from the rats and allow the rat-type monsters with Blood Flower spores inside their bodies to breed freely here, a terrifying rat tide could be formed at any moment!

“No, it’s not that simple.

“The human beings bitten by the rat-type monsters will turn into zombies in half a minute to one minute.

“From this, one can see that the zombie virus carried by these rat-like monsters is an unprecedentedly ferocious mutated version.

“Now, most of the wild monsters in the wilderness have been wiped out. There are simply not enough samples and complex environments to allow the zombie virus to achieve such a level of natural evolution.

“Therefore, these zombie viruses are most likely man-made products born in the laboratory. They are man-made biochemical weapons!”
