Chapter 236: Chapter 95: Mimic Heretics, Beast Tide and Conspiracy_2

----But what he didn’t expect was that this time, Wang Lizhi didn’t mention "Fu Xi" nor Mountain City.

What he used as a bargaining chip was another "seemingly less important" item.

"We have a list of all the monsters that are active throughout the Yangtze River Basin, even almost the entire South, which pose a threat to human settlements."

"This includes the basic information of the ’Giant Qin Yuan’ you all discovered earlier."

"Think about it, if you could get information in advance and understand the characteristics of these monsters ahead of time, wouldn’t it be much easier to handle them?"

"....We can investigate ourselves."

Chen Jian shook his head and said:

"We have a lot of reconnaissance equipment, and upon discovering monsters, we can immediately organize fire reconnaissance, promptly determine their threat, and swiftly eliminate them."

"We do not need your information..."

"No, no, no."

Wang Lizhi rarely interrupted Chen Jian and then said:

"What you’re describing is based on a single assumption."

"That is, the monsters will not actively attack you---or rather, the monsters will not launch an attack on you with a purpose."

"But that is not the case."

"You should have already noticed that most of the large monsters on this wasteland are intelligent."

"And with intelligence comes communication."

"In fact, monsters above Level 4 communicate with each other, and Level 2 monsters have intelligence comparable to humans, if not higher."

"What I’m saying is, they understand what a threat is."

"And they also know that to survive, they must prioritize eliminating the biggest threats to themselves."

"And clearly....now, you are the biggest threat to these monsters."

"They will unite against you, and by then....the reconnaissance you speak of will be far from effective."

The words fell, and Chen Jian’s eyes suddenly became somber.

He stared intently at Wang Lizhi, then asked:

"What do you mean? Is something going to happen?"

Wang Lizhi took a deep breath, then said:

"A beast tide is about to happen."

"When the beast tide arrives, relying on your current strength, it will be impossible to match the massive numbers of monsters."

"You need our help, you need more information, more weapons."

"You..."

"Wait!"

Chen Jian raised his hand to interrupt Wang Lizhi, then asked:

"What do you mean? What beast tide?"

"It’s exactly what it sounds like----I don’t think these two words are difficult to understand."

"Monsters will form an army like a tide, launching a large-scale attack on human settlements."

"And their goal is to eliminate the targets that pose the greatest threat to them."

"This is not a concept I’ve made up, but a reality that has happened in the past."

"Though it’s somewhat of ancient history, in this regard, the Ring Chamber of Commerce is more knowledgeable than any other organization."

"Because, that beast tide not only caused enormous losses to humanity but also shattered the meticulously planned initiatives of the Ring Chamber of Commerce, nearly destroying our hopes of restarting the ring."

"That is a memory that must never be forgotten....I have no reason to lie to you about this matter."

As Wang Lizhi’s words dropped, Chen Jian immediately turned to Ji Xing.

The latter shook her head, indicating her lack of knowledge, while Wang Lizhi said with a hint of irony:

"How could she possibly know? She’s just an insignificant Blood Source in the Holy Blood Temple, far from the core level."

"But I believe, with your capabilities, it’s only a matter of time before you verify everything I’m saying."

"Even though the concept of a beast tide is somewhat archaic, it has undeniably left traces in many aspects."

"For instance, the most familiar concept to you all----Mimic Heretics."

Mimic Heretics?

Chen Jian’s gaze shifted instantly.

He didn’t understand how these two issues were connected, but recalling Wang Lizhi’s words, he suddenly realized that the issue of Mimic Heretics...

Might not be so simple.

How did such a powerful group ultimately get wiped out?

Was it truly eradicated by the alliance of the Mechanical God Sect and the Holy Blood Temple?

Or was there another reason??

A sudden chill ran up his back, and after a slight pause, he tentatively asked:

"So, the downfall of the Mimic Heretics is actually related to the so-called beast tide??"

"Yes."

Wang Lizhi answered without any reservation:

"It should be said that the downfall of the Mimic Heretics was destined, a result of the joint siege by various forces including the Mechanical God Sect and the Holy Blood Temple."

"However, what ultimately pushed them into a corner was the beast tide targeting them."

"According to the intelligence we have, in their final annihilation battle, at least one Level 1 Monster, more than ten Level 2 Monsters, and countless Level 3 and 4 Monsters launched a joint attack on them."

"They held on for a long time but ultimately completely collapsed."

"They all perished outside Chang’an City, leaving no remains behind."

"It’s as if they never existed."

After speaking, Wang Lizhi let out a long sigh.

Then, before Chen Jian could speak, he proactively said:

"I know, you surely want to ask me what connection Mimic Heretics have with the Ring Chamber of Commerce."

"Now, I will answer that question for you without any reservation."
