Chapter 1979: The Choice of the Ogre Chain (Part 1) 🐉

“I don’t know what this thing is, I don’t even know its form, shape, color, and so on. What I do know is that it should be called ‘Moon Something Gold,’ existing within the bodies of these parasites that lack magic crystals,” Xia Lei said seriously, otherwise Liu Zhenghong would really think she was joking.

She had been studying these parasites for quite some time and had dissected numerous bodies. Even though there weren’t as many as the mutated creatures and zombies, she had certainly examined hundreds. Liu Zhenghong was sure that during her dissection, she hadn’t missed any part of these beings. She had discovered many strange structures and powerful genes, but she had never found any Moon Something Gold.

She didn’t believe she would make such a basic mistake, overlooking certain substances in her subjects.

“This thing should be very important. Although the code didn’t specify, I can feel its significance among the All Races of the Universe. It might be as critical as magic crystals are to us,” she continued.

Liu Zhenghong responded with an “Oh,” his eyes filled with uncertainty.

Xia Lei stood up and said to Liu Zhenghong, “Sister Hong, I’ll leave this matter to you. Please see if you can find this Moon Something Gold. The All Races of the Universe value it so much that they are willing to collect the bodies of parasites. It stands to reason that they must be able to extract this substance from them. If we master this technology, then undoubtedly, Cloud Summit will once again be ahead of other beings.”

“In the past, Zhong Ming would subconsciously show a kind of worry. I didn’t quite understand it at first, but as he grew stronger, that worry didn’t lessen; instead, it got more severe.”

Xia Lei gave a苦笑, saying, “Gradually, I realized that his focus was no longer on Earth, but rather on the All Races of the Universe. The more I learned, the more worried I became about those beings up in the sky.”

As she spoke, she pointed to the nearby bodies of the parasites.

“Sister Hong, look at these bodies we currently have no discoveries about. However, the All Races of the Universe can extract things from them that are more important than magic crystals and purple equipment. It’s easy to imagine just how large the gap is between us and them.”

“So, I truly hope you can find this mysterious substance. Perhaps that way, we can become a bit stronger and help Zhong Ming a little more.”

It was rare to see Xia Lei in such a vulnerable state. Liu Zhenghong didn’t make any more jokes, but instead hugged the Black-hearted Queen.

“Don’t worry, I'll work on it with Old Liu. I refuse to believe that we, as genetic beings, can be that far behind them.”

In a certain base within the national zone.

Inside the room, there were only seven people.

They were the seven leaders of the Ogre Chain.

Five district managers and two presidents, one of whom was the chairman.

The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive because, right at the beginning of the meeting, the leaders of the Ogre Chain were asked a question by Wang Hanran.

Wang Hanran was the mysterious boss of the Ogre Chain, who once ranked in the top ten of the national zone. However, once Cloud Summit dominated the scene and the Five Rings Society stopped updating the national rankings, not many people paid attention to him anymore.

Wang Hanran asked, “What should we do in the face of Cloud Summit?”

What to do?

Who knows what to do?!

Now Cloud Summit was clearly aiming to unify the national zone, even to unify the Earth. What do you suggest we do?

Anyone who disagrees would be destroyed.

This was the message Cloud Summit had conveyed to everyone through their actions over the past few months.

The Ogre Chain was once, or even still is, one of the top commercial organizations in the national zone. Now, however, the choices available to them were very limited.

The Five Rings Society was an organization on par with them, and their competition had persisted since the apocalypse until recently, with neither side clearly ahead. In fact, over the last year, the Five Rings Society had gained the upper hand.
