Chapter 723 is uglier than monsters
Facing Meng Chao's sincere and intense eyes, Su Mulian couldn't bear it.
She was so upset that she hesitated for a long time before revealing the real reason: "I, I'm a little scared. I heard that the 'God of War' Lei Zongchao is very powerful and can blow up a skyscraper with one punch!"
"It's true. Lei Zongchao, with all his firepower, is really like the God of War descending to earth."
Meng Chao smiled and said, "But what does it matter? Only when facing enemies and opponents of the same level will Lei Zongchao reveal his God of War side; when facing his compatriots, he is completely calm and elegant.
An easy-going, unspectacular little old man.
"Believe me, his fighting spirit and murderous intent will only be directed at the monsters, and only warmth and hope will be directed at us juniors.
"In fact, if I don't tell you his identity and let you interact with him for a period of time, you will never believe that this smiling old man is the legendary 'God of War'.
"Not to mention, he especially admires those young people who are willing to fight for Dragon City and are full of dedication. He literally 'sacrifices all his wealth and life' and spares no effort to help such young people - Miss Mulian, you
The fact that he endured the pain and cured so many Longcheng citizens is all seen by Senior Lei, so if you are willing to go to the Martial Temple, you will definitely get endless benefits from him!"
"Mr. Meng Chao..."
Su Mulian did not comment, but stared at Meng Chao intently, and asked tentatively, "You seem to particularly admire the 'God of War' Lei Zongchao?"
"Of course, he is a superhero who has guarded Dragon City for half a century. He is an extraordinary among extraordinary people. Until the last moment of his life, he did not think about himself at all, but thought about the children and future of Dragon City. Such
Aren’t heroes still worthy of our admiration?”
Meng Chao said without hesitation.
He originally regarded "God of War" Lei Zongchao as his most admired idol.
After spending half a year in close contact with Lei Zongchao in the Martial Temple, and gaining a more profound and three-dimensional understanding of this former "Dragon City's Strongest Extraordinary One", his admiration became like a flood and was out of control.
In the future Dragon City, with the continuous development of psychic martial arts, rune technology and biochemical modulation technology, more and more powerful people may emerge, surpassing the forerunner Lei Zongchao in the field of combat effectiveness.
Meng Chao himself also worked tirelessly with the goal of "surpassing Lei Zongchao".
But the real greatness of Lei Zongchao is not just his combat power?
How many supreme and powerful people can restrain their desire for the highest power and retreat bravely at the most glorious moment like Lei Zongchao?
How many supreme and powerful men can be like Lei Zongchao, who spend all their wealth, never marry a wife, have no children, or establish their own business or family, but regard the entire Dragon City as their "everyone" and all the citizens as their own?
His children serve the public wholeheartedly?
How many supreme and powerful men can be like Lei Zongchao, who have made all the extraordinary skills and skills they have learned through so much hardship available to the public for free, and have also painstakingly compiled a large number of easy-to-understand and simple teaching materials to teach all compatriots for free.
It seems like no one can surpass him.
How many supreme and powerful men can be like Lei Zongchao, who can just go about their lives on the battlefield and enjoy grudges, but they have adopted a large number of war orphans, raised them with all the hardships, and trained them into the pillars of Dragon City?
These are not hearsay.
It was what Meng Chao had seen with his own eyes over the past six months.
And Lei Zongchao's silent contributions in the past would only be a hundred times greater than what Meng Chao had seen.
Meng Chao believed that under his own promotion, a large number of new generations of strong men would emerge in Dragon City in the future whose combat power would surpass that of Lei Zongchao.
But the charisma of "God of War" Lei Zongchao is so dazzling that no one can match him!
"I don't believe in any savior. The future of Longcheng should be saved and created by all Longcheng people."
Meng Chao said seriously, "But if I have to choose a savior, the 'God of War' Lei Zongchao will definitely be the one to choose over me.
"I believe that if he can fight for another ten years for Dragon City, no, even if he can only fight for five more years, he can help us survive the most difficult moments and let our civilization advance and shine!"
This is not because Meng Chao is belittling himself.
As a person reborn at the end of the world, he believes that one day, he will stand on the top of the alien continent and compete with the most outstanding and powerful among all the races in the alien world, and even the gods and demons who control the destiny of the alien world.
But his growth takes time.
If his return from the apocalypse caused an unpredictable butterfly effect and caused the strongest people from all races in the other world to discover the potential and threats of the Dragon City Civilization in advance, so they came from the sky and joined hands to strangle, then with their own strength alone,
Obviously not enough to compete.
What's more, he wants to go deep behind enemy lines, contact allies among the thousands of races in the other world, and actively participate in major events that change the other world, so as to get the biggest piece of cake from it.
When you are far away from Dragon City, who will protect your home?
If the "God of War" Lei Zongchao could live five to ten years longer than in his previous life.
With his level, prestige and combat effectiveness, Dragon City is absolutely as solid as a rock, leaving Meng Chao without any worries!
"But, you also said that Lei Zongchao was seriously injured and has not taken action personally for a long time."
Su Mulian was not infected by Meng Chao's admiration at all. She didn't know what she was insisting on, "The nine super enterprises in Dragon City are all controlled by powerful gods. Dragon City has persisted for so many years under their protection, isn't it?
Is it good?"
"Miss Mulian, why do you think so?"
Meng Chao's eyes widened with disbelief on his face, as if he didn't recognize Su Mulian, "You are the granddaughter of the old village chief of the leprosy village. Shouldn't you know better than anyone else how bleak life is in the leprosy village that is being squeezed by super corporations?"
How slim are the hope of the villagers?
"Of course, I believe that the super enterprises did not intentionally make Chao City and Leprosy Village turn into such a mess and chaos. It is only natural for capital to pursue profits, including the controllers of the nine super enterprises you mentioned. In the past few years,
In the past ten years, he has indeed done a lot of good things for Dragon City, and he has been protecting us.
"I have nothing against super enterprises - Lu Siya is the leader of the third generation of Qingtian Group, but we are the best partners who live and die together; and my family's 'super star resources' are also very valuable in the eyes of many people."
It has the potential to become Longcheng's tenth super enterprise; it is indeed more convenient and efficient for enterprises to do many things.
"But an enterprise is an enterprise. No matter how large it is, no matter how high-sounding it is, the ultimate meaning of its existence is to make profits, and its source of motivation is to make profits. Everything it does is to make profits continuously.
"We cannot rely on a few companies to defend Dragon City and save civilization. This responsibility is too lofty and heavy, and no company can afford it!"
Su Mulian trembled slightly.
"Meng Chao believes, do you mean that in the future Dragon City, all super enterprises should be eliminated?"
"That's not true. This is too extreme."
Meng Chao pondered for a moment and said, "What I mean is that if we really hope that super enterprises can play the role we expect them to play, then we must create a force that is above super enterprises to supervise and guide them.
, let super enterprises not expand abnormally, lose control, and backfire on our civilization.
"I think the examples of Leprosy Village and Nest City have vividly illustrated how terrifying a super enterprise that loses supervision and control can become.
"Perhaps, out-of-control super corporations are the real monsters, a hundred times more uglier, evil and terrifying than those beasts huddled and shivering in the depths of the Monster Mountains!"
"A power over super corporations?"
All along, when facing Meng Chao, Su Mulian was either trembling with fear or being overly attentive and obeyed his words. Even when he had no evidence, she firmly believed that he could lead the leprosy village out of a desperate situation.
But on this... issue that seemed too early to talk about now, she somehow found the courage to confront Meng Chao tit for tat.
"Can you be more specific?" the girl asked biting her lip.
"For example, a survival committee."
Meng Chao did not notice the persistence deep in the girl's eyes, and thought she was deceived by the colorful world outside the nest city and the propaganda campaign of the super enterprise.
Meng Chao's Super Star Resources also has a public relations department, and Lu Siya is a master in the field of public relations. He knows the tricks here very well, and is determined to follow the temptations to win the girl back.
"The Survival Committee should have more power and become the real highest decision-making body of Dragon City, thereby controlling the nine super enterprises."
Meng Chao said categorically, "Instead of being established and controlled by nine super-enterprises like now, many congressmen are just mouthpieces and yes-men for the super-enterprises!"
Su Mulian was silent for a moment, clenching her fists tightly, digging her nails into her palms, using the stinging pain to control her voice and tone: "Mr. Meng Chao, is this your own idea, or the view of 'Martial God' Lei Zongchao?"
"What does it have to do with the 'God of War'?"
Meng Chao was slightly startled, "This is a conclusion I came to based on a lot of...intelligence and information, and rational thinking for a long time."
"So--"
Su Mulian took a deep breath and asked like a spear, "You just said that in order to prevent super enterprises from getting out of control, we should create a force that is superior to super enterprises.
“What I want to ask is, what should we do if this ‘power over super corporations’ also gets out of control?
"It is relatively easy to deal with the out-of-control of super enterprises. After all, there are nine super enterprises in Dragon City today. In the future, you will still have your super star resources. There may be more new super enterprises. Even if a few of them are out of control, they will interact with each other."
Despite competition and constraints, there is always hope of reaching a new balance.
