‘No, no, I’ve overlooked something. I feel that the whole thing is very awkward, and there’s a strange sense of disharmony!’

Meng Chao’s brain started to hurt.

It was a sign that his brain cells were operating crazily, and his brain waves were about to burst out of his skull like magma.

‘Wait, I know what’s wrong. It’s Yun Feidian’s reaction!

‘Perhaps Yun Feidian is indeed an ambitious and self-proclaimed idiot, but as the leader of Thundercloud Technology and the leader of the nine great families’ second generation, he shouldn’t have been so stupid as to reveal his entire plan!

‘If his only purpose is to turn Lu Siya into a monster with human skin to then throw her under the bus and use her to attack the Azure Alliance, he wouldn’t have needed to say that much. He would have just pulled Lu Siya here and injected her with the monster serum without even taking off her mask or saying a word. Wouldn’t it have been a success?

‘Anyway, Lu Siya is already under his control. He doesn’t know that Lu Siya has the power of the monster’s mastermind in her body. In his opinion, Lu Siya has no power to fight back!

‘Why did he have to waste so much time and tell her his whole scheme carefully and gloatingly, like those uncanny supervillains in movies and TV shows, when victory was already in their hands?’

At that moment, the spirit magnet under Meng Chao’s control had already peeled off the silk from the cocoon and moved forward layer by layer. Like a butcher dismembering an ox, it lifted the outer layer of the super crystal bomb, revealing the spirit energy transmission tubes that were as complicated as human blood vessels and neural networks.

Yellow, green, red, and blue liquid spirit energy flowed fast or slow in the spirit energy tubes, which were as thin as hair.

The light they emitted fused together, and the device that was full of destructive power started to resemble a living monster with the beating heart of a demon.

Meng Chao had to hold his breath and concentrate. He needed to play with the liquid metal wire as if he was playing the zither, and he had to control every micro-step of the operation. Only then would it be possible for him to untie, block, and cut the spirit energy transmission tubes in a certain order without being discovered. In the end, he could dismantle the super crystal bomb’s core unit.

As he looked at the super crystal bomb that Yun Feidian had spent so much effort to create, an idea flashed through Meng Chao’s mind.

‘Yun Feidian did it on purpose!

‘He pretended to be arrogant and provoked Lu Siya so that she would not sit still, convinced that she had to fight this inhumane demon in front of her!

‘On second thought, if Lu Siya didn’t resist his offer, would Yun Feidian’s plan succeed as easily as he claimed?

‘That wouldn’t happen. Lu Siya is an important person with a sensitive identity after all. She’s involved with the Lu family, Superstar Company, the Broken Star Club, the Azure Alliance, and other organizations. She’s even deeply connected to the Red Dragon Army. She has also won the trust of several million ordinary citizens. To convict such a person, all the evidence, including her confession, will certainly be investigated dozens if not hundreds of times. The whole process will take a long time, lasting at least a year and a half. It could even take three to five years or even seventy to eighty years. Who knows?

‘There lies the problem. If he just injected the monster drug into Lu Siya’s body and forced her to reveal some monstrous characteristics while she kept her thoughts and will, wouldn’t Lu Siya seek justice for herself?

‘With Lu Siya’s intelligence, even if Yun Feidian didn’t tell her everything, she would have guessed 70 to 80% of the truth.

‘Yun Feidian can’t control Lu Siya forever.

‘Since the impact of the whole incident is too great, the trial against Lu Siya will definitely be open to the public. There might even be a live broadcast so that all the citizens of Dragon City can participate in the trial. At that time, who can control what Lu Siya says in court?

‘In that case, is he supposed to destroy Lu Siya’s cerebral cortex and central nervous system by torture or injection so that she’ll completely lose the ability to speak and think?

‘Are you kidding me? That would be the stupidest thing to do. Even if Yun Feidian can really make Lu Siya reveal part of the monster within her, if she loses her ability to think and becomes a muddleheaded idiot in his hands, everyone will suspect him of doing something. No one will believe anything he says!

‘Also, the fact that Lu Siya has the characteristics of a monster is not enough for Yun Feidian to attack the headquarters of the Azure Alliance and capture more of its members.

‘The core members of the Azure Alliance aren’t the type of people who eat vegetarian food and pray. They’re elite warriors who have fought through mountains of corpses and seas of blood in the Monster War.

‘Perhaps their level isn’t as high as that of the superhumans from the noble families, but their battle experience and will are no less than that of anyone else. Right now, the relationship between the Azure Alliance and the nine mega corporations is like fire and water. No matter what proof of arrest the nine mega corporations bring to them, they won’t just wait to be captured and killed.

‘Yun Feidian wants to capture a large number of the Azure Alliance’s core members by force. How much manpower and resources will he have to mobilize?

‘Are the top executives of the nine mega corporations, the biggest beneficiaries of the current order, willing to risk the complete destruction of the current order and go crazy with him?

‘So, we can draw a conclusion.

‘It’s useless just to secretly capture Lu Siya, inject her with the monster drug, and turn her into a monster in human skin.

‘Yun Feidian needs to come up with more direct evidence to prove that Lu Siya is not only a monster in human skin, but she’s also causing great damage to Dragon City.

‘For example…

‘Lu Siya blowing up the Golden Roc as the Tenth Supernatural Entity!’

Meng Chao’s mind was clear now.

He finally understood why Yun Feidian had installed a super crystal bomb in the core cabin of the Golden Roc, the fruit of his labor.

Not only was he using the ruse of self-injury to push suspicion away from himself, but he was also arousing the hatred of the nine mega corporations.

More importantly, he had to find direct evidence of Lu Siya destroying the Golden Roc.

‘No wonder Yun Feidian hasn’t detonated the super crystal bomb.

‘He’s still waiting for Lu Siya to break free and attack.

‘It’s not Lu Siya’s style to sit and wait for death. Since Yun Feidian has given her so much time, she must have unlocked her restraints in secret. She’s ready to break out of the siege and fight back.

‘All of this was within Yun Feidian’s calculations.

‘If I’m not wrong, the moment Lu Siya rushes out of the Golden Roc, Yun Feidian will press the trigger!’
