Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! Chapter 237: Complete the Quest, Reward for Completing the Quest Above the Quota!

Chapter 237: Complete the Quest, Reward for Completing the Quest Above the Quota!

Meng Chao’s palms were covered in cold sweat.

Even though he had activated Walking Corpse and lowered his breathing and heartbeat to the lowest to perfectly hide himself so that he would not be discovered by Lin Chuan and the White Spirit, he did not dare to use the Ultimate Basic Gun Technique and use his mind to lock on the White Spirit.

Otherwise, this cunning creature would definitely be able to detect his presence.

But if he did not use the Ultimate Basic Gun Technique, he was too far away, and the angle was not good. The grenade launcher was not a sniper rifle that paid great attention to accuracy. He did not have the confidence to blow the White Spirit’s brains out.

“Seriously, I can’t believe I just decided to go along with your crazy ways. You must have brainwashed me, brat. Why else would I act as crazily as you are right now?” Qin Hu drew his saber and crawled over. “So, how are we fighting?”

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes.

He was at the point of no return. Even if his chances of winning were low, he could only...

At that moment, Lu Siya suddenly cast a glance in his direction.

Meng Chao’s heart froze.

Perhaps it was because Lu Siya was brainwashed by the White Spirit, she did not shout. Instead, she quickly blinked and shook her head, as if she was spasming.

Lin Chuan and the White Spirit thought that it was the normal reaction due to the mind control, and they did not pay attention to it.

Meng Chao bit his lip and removed his finger from the trigger. Then, he slunk back to the wall.

“What’s going on?” Qin Hu glared at him. “I finally got myself into the mood, and you decided to be a coward?”

“No, I...” Meng Chao shut his eyes. The scene he saw just now quickly appeared in his head, and he was certain that his eyes were not playing tricks on him.

Lu Siya knew about his existence, and she shook her head to signal to him not to attack.

How? And why?

Meng Chao licked his torn lip and used the pain to clear his head. He took out the periscope to observe the situation above.

The White Spirit had already completed the mind control, and its tails fell back.

Lu Siya’s eyes were still clear, and she did not show the numb look of a person who was hypnotized. But she seemed a little excited, just like... how Lin Chuan was after he entered the underground.

“That’s right. The amount of Red Radiance Jades in the mine is definitely very high. It’ll be enough for the three of us to share it. With your help, I will be able to climb up to the highest seat of power in Sky Pillar Corporation.

“I should work together with you. It’s better than dying here and turning into a pile of ugly bones,” she mumbled to herself as if a certain emotion in her heart had been amplified. She hypnotized herself with it.

“Siya, you finally understood.” Lin Chuan placed his hand on her shoulder and said gently, “Once we’re done with this, we can become kindred and be together forever.”

“That’s right. Lin Chuan... we’ll become the same type of people. We’ll be together, forever.” Lu Siya smiled. The aversion and anger from a moment ago were completely gone.

She cast a deep glance at the White Spirit before standing up with the help of Lin Chuan’s hand and fell into his embrace.

The White Spirit watched it quietly.

It was as if it was just a creature with no emotion.

“I can sense the Red Radiance Jade mine below us. We have to hurry, though, or other mine exploration teams might find it.”

Lu Siya nuzzled in Lin Chuan’s arms and pointed at the darkness below the cliff.

Whether it was intentional or not, the direction she pointed was incredibly far away from where Meng Chao and Qin Hu were.

Lin Chuan nodded in satisfaction. He packed up everything with the White Spirit and organized a few sets of the equipment mine explorers used to drop down from high areas. With Lu Siya’s guidance, they went to the spot that was incredibly far away from Meng Chao and Qin Hu and fixed the equipment against the wall. Then, one after another, they slid down.

Meng Chao and Qin Hu stayed stuck to the wall like two dried up geckos. They did not even dare breathe loudly.

Fortunately, as the force of the explosion gradually subsided, the subsurface plasma also became thicker.

Besides, the depths of the underground were dark. The only source of light was the faint glow from the crystals in the mine, so visibility was incredibly low.

There was more than one hundred meters between them, and the wall was slightly curved. Lu Siya also continued speaking, introducing the characteristics of the Red Radiance Jade mine and how they should explore it to attract Lin Chuan and the White Spirit’s attention, so they did not notice Meng Chao and Qin Hu’s existence.

They held their breaths for a total of five minutes before they jumped onto the cliff. Then, they ley sprawled on the ground with cold sweat on their skins as they gasped for breath.

Qin Hu nudged Meng Chao. “Why didn’t you shoot just now?”

Meng Chao hesitated for a moment before he mentioned what happened.

“Lu Siya knows that we’re hiding here? Impossible!” Qin Hu was stunned for a long time before he frowned and said, “But when I think about it, she seems to have been intentionally luring Lin Chuan to talk a lot and expose an opening.

“I don’t really know that mind control mumbo jumbo, but I do know that a dam bursts when there is a crack in the wall, and if you want to cure a sickness of the mind, you need to know what caused it. If you want to break mind control, you need to know where the crack is. Now, we know what exactly is the sickness in Lin Chuan’s mind.”

Meng Chao nodded and a.n.a.lyzed the situation. “Lu Siya is not a simple woman. She won’t be controlled by the White Spirit.

“There are a lot of Slit-mouthed Anacondas down there, and they have never tasted human flesh over the years. That’s why they’re not very aggressive. After we made them retreat, they did not surround us again.

“But now, they have eaten a lot of human corpses, and they know our taste. They will be much more aggressive. It won’t be easy for Lin Chuan and the White Spirit to move through the hunting area of the Slit-mouthed Anacondas.

“If they really find the Red Radiance Jade mine, under the powerful interference from the spirit energy radiation, their brainwaves will turn into mush. The White Spirit’s mind control will be incredibly weakened, and the distance between someone at the peak of Earth Realm and Heaven Realm will shrink to only one step.

“I think that Lu Siya was hinting to us that there would be a better chance to attack.”

“Do you believe in Lu Siya that much?” Qin Hu asked.

Meng Chao nodded. Regardless of whether Lu Siya was a ruthless woman with a heart as diabolical as a snake’s, there was one thing he was certain about.

In his previous life, she did not choose to work together with Lin Chuan and the White Spirit.

Otherwise, she would not have remained a n.o.body, and Lin Chuan would not have died.

There had to be some other variable in the Red Radiance Jade mine.

“To stop all this, I can work together with you, Mr. Hu, and that Lu Siya too. I don’t care anymore!” Meng Chao gritted his teeth.

Qin Hu scratched his chin for three seconds before he registered Meng Chao’s words. “Brat, what did you say?”

“It’s nothing. We have to hurry and see how many useful items we can find here. Weapons, medicine, explosives, mine exploration tools, anything works!

Both of them quickly packed up.

Meng Chao found a lot of high-calorie food.

Qin Hu brought back dozens of weapons that looked alive. They were shaped like throwing knives and had numerous runic symbols carved on them.

“I think that when the White Spirit took control of Lin Chuan, something went wrong with his brain. All he can see now is the Red Radiance Jade mine. Otherwise, there’s no reason why he wouldn’t pick up Shen Yulong’s Shooting Star Blades. They’re really powerful.” Qin Hu whistled.

“But I earned from this. I’ve never used a treasure like this before. Brat, give me half an hour. I need to activate my vitality magnetic field and resonate with the runic symbols on these Shooting Star Blades. Then, I can claim them as my own.”

The weapons of Heaven Realm elites were things that those at the peak of Earth Realm could only somewhat control. Meng Chao was not strong enough, so even if he had them, they would be useless to him.

When he looked at Shooting Star Blades, a thought rose in his mind, and it was a scary one.

“I think that the White Spirit’s plan doesn’t involve items like the Shooting Star Blades. It only needs a lot of explosives.” Meng Chao’s voice was cold.

“What did you say?”

“Didn’t you notice, Mr. Hu? They packed a lot of bags full of crystal bombs just now,” Meng Chao said. “At first, I thought that the White Spirit was checking the corpses and searching for weapons like the Shooting Star Blades or giving the last strike to those who were severely injured.

“But now, when I was looking around, I noticed that it wasn’t interested in weapons and gene medicine. Instead, it took all the crystal bombs.”

Even though mine explorers could change the structure of stones to create tunnels or escape routes, the effectiveness was low when exploring the underground. They also had to face the problem of their spirit energy running out.

Crystal bombs could blow up places and create tunnels or crush fierce underground monsters to death, so they were very useful. That’s why both mine exploration teams had brought a lot of them.

Miners could also open up holes in rock strata and stuff crystal bombs inside. Then, they would seal off the holes to maximize the explosive power.

In the fight, someone had even gone mad enough to throw crystal bombs at their enemies.

But since they were not war-issued hand grenades, there were a lot of procedures to activate them and not everyone was mad enough to use them.

There had to be a lot of crystal bombs left used, and they were all taken away by Lin Chuan and the White Spirit.

They even took the tools to open up holes in walls to stuff bombs inside so that they could increase the explosive power.

“Why?” Qin Hu could not understand it. “The Red Radiance Jades have lots of spirit energy, so they’re one of the most unstable super crystals. You don’t need to use explosives to mine them. Why would they need numerous crystal bombs down there...”

Qin Hu’s voice suddenly died down.

He exchanged a glance with Meng Chao, and both of them shuddered at the same time.

“Ten minutes! I just need ten minutes!”

Qin Hu sat down cross-legged and spilled his blood on the Shooting Star Blades. He then activated his vitality magnetic field and resonated with the weapon.

Meng Chao found a corner and used his fastest speed to wolf down a large amount of high-calorie food until his stomach became as round as that of a pregnant woman.

Then, he used his mind to activate Kindling.
