Chapter 427: Pivot Point for Brainwashing
ng Chao’s mind raced as he thought about Lu Fanghui’s suggestion.
Naturally, he would not be so naive as to think that the president of Sky Pillar Minerals had taken a fancy to Superstar or the technology from Spirit Creation Creatures.
Even if Sky Pillar Corporation really lacked the related technological equipnt, they could just choose to work with companies that were of a larger scale and had even more advanced technology.
It had to be because he placed a high value on his relationship with Lu Siya and felt that there was a need to groom him into soone on his side.
Speaking of which, ng Chao had recently been troubled by the matters related to Spirit Creation Creatures.
Superstar had bought over Spirit Creation Creatures for quite so ti. It was a standard case of a tiny snake trying to swallow an elephant.
Before this, Superstar hadn’t had a lot of connections, skills, and experience related to the field of biochemical technology.
And after Spirit Creation Creatures took a huge blow to their foundation, they had to face strict investigations from related departnts. A lot of its businesses, including the contract related to Subway No.20, were put to a stop.
Even though they managed to pass the investigation, it was not easy for them to recover their business.
Even if the abnormal beast research departnt acted as a middleman and introduced so businesses to them, they were still a long way from making major deals again.
To put it simply, Superstar took in more than they could swallow when they rged with Spirit Creation Creatures and could not quite digest it now.
ng Chao himself did not know how to manage a company, and his father’s experience and abilities were not enough for him to handle such high-level business operations.
Qin Hu and the forr president of Spirit Creation Creatures, Xie Xiaolei, qualified sowhat, but even the best chef could not cook without rice, so they were not able to do anything without any suitable projects.
If ng Chao managed to get a firm grasp over Lu Fanghui’s suggestion, it would definitely be able to push Superstar to a higher stage.
“Professor Gao Ye was a genius.” Lu Fanghui’s next words showed that he was not just running his mouth off. “His skill in creating the Ultimate Sandworm alone is already peerless among all the other sandworm experts in Dragon City. And his consciousness transfer technology is also an ingenious creation that can create a whole new generation. If it could be perfectly executed, it would change how our entire civilization looks and the relationship between superhumans and normal people.
“I might be a superhuman from the Lu family, but I admire so of his ideals. Even if normal people ca in control of great power, they might not threaten the benefits of superhumans. Instead, they could bring about balance and make our civilization even more stable and better.
“Unfortunately, a genius like Professor Gao Ye was bewitched by the abnormal beasts and, just like Lin Chuan, walked down the wrong path.
“However, no matter how many wrongs Gao Ye and Lin Chuan made, it has nothing to do with their ideals and skills. Professor Gao Ye used the consciousness transfer technology to turn himself into the Ultimate Sandworm and committed multiple cris, but that doesn’t an that the consciousness transferring technology and biochemical modifications are evil.
“At the end of the day, technology is blaless and strength is innocent. There are also plenty of rotten eggs among superhumans who absorbed too much spirit energy, which led to their minds becoming deford and distorted. They beca lost people who commit countless cris, but are we supposed to forbid cultivation just because of lost people? That would be the sa as us not eating because of that one ti we choked.”
The truth about Lin Chuan and Gao Ye’s cases was highly classified information. But with Lu Fanghui’s status, it would not be difficult for him to learn the inside information.
“ng Chao, I know that most of the technological reserves from Professor Gao Ye are in Superstar’s hands together with Spirit Creation Creatures,” Lu Fanghui continued. “Right now, Dragon City is developing the new region in the north. Sky Pillar Minerals has more than ten crystal mining projects in Shattered Starlake, Graveyard Forest, and Raging Waves, and we are in urgent need of a large number of Giant Sandworms to dig tunnels and mine the crystals.
“If you’re interested, we’ll have a lot of chances to work together in this area. If our cooperation goes well, we can set up a biochemical lab that has even higher specifications than the one originally in Spirit Creation Creatures to research consciousness transferring technology. I do believe that it’s sothing possible.”
This suggestion made ng Chao’s heart race.
What concerned the specifics of the cooperation, he would let Qin Hu and Xie Xiaolei handle it. For now, he just sincerely thanked Lu Fanghui for it and taking care of him over the past few days.
“You don’t have to thank . I should be the one thanking you.” Lu Fanghui smiled. “No, it’s not just because of Lin Chuan, and it’s not just because of you saving Siya a few tis. It’s because of you performing various war achievents and because of Zhou Tianshui.”
“Zhou Tianshui?”
ng Chao was a little stunned.
He rembered the pitiful person who was swallowed in one bite by the Demonic Abyss Eye after he mutated and beca a deford monster.
What relationship did he have with Lu Fanghui?
“Yes, Zhou Tianshui.” Lu Fanghui sighed and said in resignation, “Zhou Tianshui was the boss of a second-hand tal recycling company, while his brother-in-law was an engineer in Kun-peng Dynamics. They were partners, and Zhou Tianshui had bought Kun-peng Dynamics’ shares secretly through his wife. They had a really tight relationship in terms of economic interest.
“Kun-peng Dynamics has received investnts from Sky Pillar Corporation, so Zhou Tianshui’s wealth increased ten tis or even a hundred tis after Kun-peng Dynamics rose to prominence.”
ng Chao felt really confused. “Kun-peng Dynamics is?”
“Oh. Kun-peng Dynamics is a new high-tech enterprise that develops new crystal engines. They’re also a complentary production factory to Thunderbolt Airship. They’re in charge of providing the crystal engines for the new armored airship project,” Lu Fanghui explained.
“You should have heard so rumors. The Red Dragon Army and related departnts are currently deliberating on a project to change all the advanced armored airships in hopes to develop a super armored airship that is faster, can travel further, has a longer firing radius, and can carry more ammunition. They want to upgrade all the armored airships in the city.
“The profit from this project would be astronomical, but the base investnt is also ridiculous.
“If the governnt gives the green light to this plan, there might not be a lot of resources and money left for the developnt of controllable transmigration technology, the full upgrade of the defense systems in the residential areas, or other defensive projects.
“However, if the Ho Party’s voices beca louder and controllable transmigration technology developnt, the full upgrade of all defense systems in the residential areas, and other projects took up most of the budget and investnts, the projects that focused more on the offense, such as switching all the advanced armored airships might be delayed, and there might even be variables involved.”
ng Chao’s mind raced, and he instantly understood what he ant.
“This ans that Zhou Tianshui didn’t fall to disgrace because of fervent ideals, but also because there were very real benefits involved that drove him to it. That’s why he turned into a puppet of the abnormal beasts and tried to destroy Project 101’s mbers as well as deliver a huge blow to the Ho Party?” ng Chao ca to an understanding.
“Once the transmigration experts were dead, the developnt of controllable transmigration technology would co to a halt, and the money and resources would end up in the projects focusing on offense, including the switching of advanced armored airships.
“Kun-peng Dynamics would receive a lot of impetus from the great profit, because they would be providing crystal engines for the new armored airships, and would definitely rise to power. Zhou Tianshui would also beco even richer because he secretly has a lot of shares in Kun-peng Dynamics. It would no longer be just a dream for him to beco rich!
“I was wondering how the mastermind managed to bewitch him to such an extent. No matter how strong it was, it shouldn’t have been able to do it. So, that astronomical profit served as a pivot point to make a soul blinded by greed switch sides. It makes sense now!”
“Yes, it’s not just Zhou Tianshui. A lot of other people are involved,” Lu Siya added. “Over the past few days, the abnormal beast research departnt hasn’t stayed idle. Even though the zombies, monsters, and undead were all killed, we haven’t managed to capture all the people who helped sneak them into Dragon City!
“This was a large scale operation, and they managed to launch such precise, specific attacks. Gao Ye and Zhou Tianshui alone would not have been enough help to carry out such a plan.
“The departnt sent its elites to capture more than one hundred perpetrators based on various clues. There might be quite a few bigshots who will be proven to be involved in this later. This is a major storm in Dragon City’s superhuman circle!”
ng Chao was shocked. Unable to believe his ears, he said, “No way, you’re telling that more than one hundred superhumans were like Zhou Tianshui, bewitched by the mastermind?”
“That’s not it,” Lu Siya said. “There are only a few rotten eggs like Zhou Tianshui, who are hell-bent on serving the monster civilization. Most of the people are either bewitched by the mastermind or hypnotized by supporters of Zhou Tianshui’s ideals. Then, while ignorant, they beca accomplices of the monster civilization.”
ng Chao thought about it, shook his head, and said, “I don’t get it. What do you an by ignorant?”
“It’s simple. These people definitely did not want to see monsters wreaking havoc in Dragon City, but they also did not want to see the Ho Party rise to power. It was a dream of theirs to see the Ho Party suffer a major blow,” Lu Siya said.
“Most of these people are like Zhou Tianshui. They have tight relationships with various offensive projects in terms of economic interest, and they’re firm Colonization Party mbers. If the transmigration experts were all killed and Project 101 failed, their projects would be able to get more money and resources.
“That’s 300% profit. It’s enough to make humans even crazier than monsters. And it beca their motivation to attack Project 101 and the Ho Party.
“As the puppet of abnormal beasts, Zhou Tianshuui could understand their thoughts clearly, so he secretly gathered the firm Colonization Party mbers and used the nine great cultivation families’ na to say that the nine great cultivation families are supporting them by providing them with all sorts of help to attack the Ho Party. Then, many people were tricked due to their ignorance.”
ng Chao was stunned. “In your na?”
The nine great cultivation families were the strongest supporters of the Colonization Party in Dragon City.
Besides, while ng Chao was investigating Blue Ho, he had noticed that the Ho Party were not really idealists who were passionate about returning to Earth. Instead, it would be more accurate to say that they had gathered together under the na of going back to Earth to form an opposition party to fight against the nine great cultivation families.
If he looked at this from the angle of a conspiracy theorist, aside from monsters, who had the greatest possibility of organizing an attack against the Ho Party and the transmigration specialists?
The only answer was the nine great cultivation families.
This ant that if ng Chao and Lu Siya had not worked together to stop the Demonic Abyss Eye’s sche and the transmigration experts and the leaders of the Ho Party really died, the Ho Party mbers who managed to survive would be fuelled by rage and bla the entire thing on the nine great cultivation families.
