Chapter 1849: 1844 It's Human Nature

1844 It’s Human Nature

Meng Chao did not want to believe that the confession was real.

However, there was more than one similar confession.

As the interrogations went on, the confessions continued to accumulate, hence they could cross-reference confessions from different Blood Alliance members.

Besides, it was easy to verify many of the violations and criminal facts pointed out in the confessions.

It seemed that even if the confessions contained exaggerations and false accusations, they were at least more than 50% true.

At this moment, Meng Chao was extremely disappointed in the entire circle of superhumans.

“Actually, there’s nothing strange about this. It’s human nature.”

Lu Siya grew up in a family of cultivators, so she was used to the unspoken rules among the superhumans. “You can’t look at what happened decades ago with the current lens,” she said softly.

“These war heroes first committed their crimes decades ago during the bloody era. There was no order, and the strong preyed on the weak.

“At that time, even half a can of rotten and moldy beef could cost three to five lives.

“Those who awakened extraordinary strength in that incomparably cruel era were seen as saviors and gods. It did not matter even if they were only in the One-star Spirit Tattoo Realm.

“They provided hope to the people around them.

“When members of the opposite sex who couldn’t protect themselves encountered these people, wouldn’t it be normal and reasonable to give up their bodies in exchange for temporary protection and resources to live a few more days?

“Newly awakened superhumans often had stronger physiological desires than ordinary individuals due to the lack of training information, outdated training facilities, and possible PTSD from fierce battles. They needed to calm their nerves, improve their mood, and rid their fatigue, as well as fear, in the most primitive way.

“At the end of the day, neither the ordinary people nor the superhumans could guarantee that they would see tomorrow in that burning hellhole.

“Most of them lived in the present and enjoyed a good moment with strangers they met by chance.

“Also, you should know that thanks to the nourishment of spirit energy, superhumans have more tenacious genes. Their cell activity is at least 300% higher than that of ordinary people, which makes it very easy for them to conceive.

“Back then, Dragon City was in chaos. The industrial sector, which included rubber mining and refining, was extremely undeveloped. Ordinary people did not have the means or access to protection. Even if they did, ordinary measures might not have been able to confine the superhumans’ genes either.

“Due to various reasons, many superhumans of the older generation had illegitimate children in double digits or even more. It had nothing to do with whether they were war heroes or immoral. Rather, in an era where even civilization could not be preserved, they tried their best to sow healthy, strong, and excellent seeds so that more offspring with better bloodlines could be raised. The noble goal was to increase the population and combat power of the entire race!”

Meng Chao fell silent.

Lu Siya was right.

A population, or to be more precise, an exceptional population, was the foundation for the continuation of a civilization.

This was especially so for Dragon City, which was far away from its mother planet and deep in a foreign land. The number of powerful people they had was the key to their survival.

“Alright, it’s indeed meaningless to bring up old scores and discuss the personal issues of the old-generation superhumans from that special era.”

Meng Chao sighed. “Nevertheless, they really shouldn’t have broken any laws and regulations or taken drastic measures just for their illegitimate children to obtain an excess of cultivation resources!”

“If they hadn’t done all this, heaven and earth would’ve been destroyed. Don’t you think it’s human nature for someone to do anything and everything for their children’s sake? That’s the ugly truth.”

Lu Siya said, “Besides, we’re living in a turbulent and uncertain era. Although Dragon City appears to be strong and prosperous, who can guarantee that order won’t collapse again and chaos won’t return?

“Once the lawless bloody age makes a comeback, who’ll be the most reliable? The superhumans will, of course, find this in their blood descendants, their family, and their own flesh and blood!

“The superhumans of the older generation have been struggling from the bloody era to this day. Who among them doesn’t know the principle of ‘being prepared for danger even in times of peace?’ Why would they train the children of the poor instead of their own? It wouldn’t make sense!

“Even the nine big cultivation families are currently facing a crisis. To a large extent, it’s because we don’t have enough core members in our families. Although our families consist of several hundred members and seem to be flourishing, many of our members are foster children. They’re considered ‘mercenaries,’ and each of them has their own foundation and interests. Once the family head becomes too old to oversee things and the temptation of outside interests comes, it’ll be very easy for them to think about establishing their own families.

“If the nine cultivation families can develop steadily for a few more decades and give birth to more blood descendants, we won’t be shaken by the storm before us.

“In such a reality, whether the superhumans come from humble or rich families, almost all of them have been desperately earning training resources since the day of their awakening. They’re constantly looking for members of the opposite sex with similar high-quality genes, passing on their genes, reproducing, educating their descendants, and strengthening their family. It’s a natural principle.

“The ‘big shots’ and ‘old seniors’ on the list were only a little excessive. It’s just bad luck that the incident involving the Blood Alliance exposed them. You weren’t fussing over them before that, were you?

“Speaking of which, Meng Chao, you’re the odd one out. It’s rare to find someone like you. You’ve had a lot of fortuitous encounters, you’ve improved at a rapid pace, and you possess plenty of assets, as well as unparalleled martial arts, at a young age. Yet, you’ve never had contact with the opposite sex to pass on your good genes.

“I’m not talking about love. Ambitious young people like you and I certainly don’t have time to waste on those boring feelings. However, you were born in troubled times and surrounded by wealth and power. You have the ambition to change the future, but you don’t want to strengthen your family and cultivate heirs that are absolutely loyal to you. What’s wrong with you?”

Indeed, after Lu Siya’s analysis, Meng Chao realized that he was the one who did not fit in. He was an alien who went against human nature.

His seemingly “pure and honest” behavior was not a result of being morally superior to the older-generation superhumans who had been dragged down by the Blood Alliance. It was not because he had some unspeakable secret either.

It was because he had seen too many apocalyptic scenes in his nightmares.

Subconsciously, he did not want his wife and children to suffer endless pain and be burned to ashes by the doomsday flames.

That was all.
