Chapter 149 What the hell?!
In the past, in the world of mechanical beasts, the beast race prioritized loyalty and honor, and admired bravery and fearlessness; the motorcycle race was united and admired fearlessness in the face of danger.

Although there were some unsavory betrayals and conspiracies, uprightness and honor remained the mainstream values ​​of both races. Now, however, the Golden Claw God, having taken human form and followed Chen Zhou into the human world, found his experiences vastly different from his previous understanding. Human greed, cunning, betrayal, and the endless power struggles left the Golden Claw God bewildered and uneasy.

He once thought that the human world and the machine-beast world were not much different, just another form of survival competition. However, as he spent more and more time with Chen Zhou, he gradually realized that the human world was far more complex than the machine-beast world. There were no clear rules, no absolute loyalty, and even the most basic trust seemed like a luxury.

After a moment of silence, the Golden Claw God finally spoke: "My lord, I don't understand. Why do humans betray their companions so easily? Why do they abandon their principles without hesitation in the face of profit? In the world of machine beasts, traitors are despised by everyone and even expelled from their own kind, leaving them with no place to stand. But in the human world, betrayal seems to have become the norm, even a means of survival."

Chen Zhou chuckled softly, a profound light flashing in his eyes. He slowly stood up, walked to the window, and gazed at the surging East China Sea in the distance, as if deep in thought. After a moment, he turned to look at the Golden Claw God, his tone calm yet carrying a hint of meaning.

"Golden Claw God, the betrayal and loyalty you speak of are merely the rules of the Beast Machine World. In the human world, however, the rules are made by the strong. So-called loyalty and betrayal are nothing more than shackles for the weak and tools for the strong. In the human world, there has never been absolute justice or evil, only a struggle for interests and power."

He paused, then continued, “The reason those powerful and wealthy people you see so readily pledged allegiance to me is not because they are truly loyal to me, but because they saw greater benefits, temptations they could not resist. They were afraid of losing their current status and wealth, so they chose to attach themselves to me to protect themselves. This is human nature; greed and fear drive them to make their choices.”

Golden Claw God frowned slightly, seemingly not entirely agreeing with Chen Zhou's explanation. He said in a deep voice, "My lord, if the human world is so chaotic, why are we still dealing with them here? The world of machine beasts may be cruel, but at least we have our own rules and beliefs. Here, all I see is endless conspiracy and betrayal."

Chen Zhou smiled slightly, a sly glint in his eyes: "Golden Claw God, you're wrong. It's precisely because of the chaos and complexity of the human world, like a dirty game, that it has given us the greatest opportunity. The rules of the Beast Machine World are simple, but they also limited your previous development; everything was in service of the war."

"A world that lives only in war has no future."

"Therefore, here in this filthy world, we can exploit human greed and fear to rapidly expand our power. Think about it, if it weren't for these human weaknesses, how could we have grown from a small trading company into one of the most powerful forces in the East China Sea region in just a few months?"

"Indeed, it's because of our strength, but isn't that also due to internal strife within humanity itself?"

"The cooperation of the East Sea Fleet, the compromise of the Sky Sea Alliance, and the teams of countless powerful figures."

"There are countless reasons."

Golden Claw God remained silent for a moment, seemingly processing Chen Zhou's words. He nodded slowly, but a hint of doubt still lingered in his eyes: "My lord, I understand what you mean. But I'm not sure if we can truly control all of this. Human cunning and fickleness are far more complex than we imagine."

Chen Zhou chuckled and patted Golden Claw God on the shoulder: "Golden Claw God, you don't need to worry about these things. You just need to remember that no matter how complex the human world is, we always hold the most powerful force. And you, Huo Wuji, and countless mechanical beast warriors are the core of this force. As long as you are here, no conspiracy or betrayal can shake our foundation."

The Golden Claw God's gaze gradually hardened, and he nodded: "My lord, I understand. No matter how the human world changes, I will always follow you and clear away all obstacles for you."

Soldiers are very fast!
In just one day, the Tang Clan branch, which had been operating in the East China Sea region for thousands of years, was almost completely uprooted.

Those who were once complacent about their defection became the knives stabbing them in the heart.

How could a Beast Warrior be turned against its own side?

How could a Beast Warrior possibly be bribed?

It's just a game. The Tang Clan doesn't need these defectors and bribed individuals to provide any detailed intelligence; they only need to understand the general movements of the Beast Merchant Guild.

Arrogance and conceit.

The Beast Merchant Guild also doesn't need these people who pretend to be turned or bribed to provide any core technology of the Tang Clan; they only need to find out the hidden location of the East China Sea branch of the Tang Clan.

Equally conceited and arrogant.

Arrogance and conceit require absolute strength to maintain, and coincidentally, the Beast Merchant Guild exists!
"Huo Wuji! My goodness!"

The door to Huo Wuji's office was kicked open again, and Shui Shuheng, like an angry lion, burst in. He made no attempt to conceal his aura as a Title Douluo, and dragged the three black-armored Beast Guards who were holding him into the headquarters office of the Beast Merchant Guild.

"Close the door and get out."

Huo Wuji looked helplessly at the furious Shui Shuheng. Although he had long guessed that the actual controller of the East Sea Army would come to question him, he didn't think it was necessary to kick the door down.
very expensive.

The warriors of the Beast Guard received the signal, let go, and left. Before leaving, they took out a spare door panel from their storage soul tool and installed it, then respectfully withdrew.

"You son of a bitch, Huo Wuji, I demand an explanation!"

Since preparing to launch an unprecedented revolution, Shui Shuheng has become increasingly younger, as if he is burning away all the little life he has left to shine brightly in these remaining years!

Looking at Shui Shuheng's resounding words, Huo Wuji couldn't help but think of this sentence:

There are two kinds of people in the world: one kind lives forever in the shadow of others' dazzling light;

Some people, however, burn themselves to illuminate others;

So, which type of person is truly intelligent?
But before Huo Wuji could even process what was happening, Shui Shuheng, his brows furrowed, strode forward and slammed his withered hands on the table, repeating each word clearly: "You son of a bitch, Huo Wuji! I said, I want an explanation!"

"I heard it! I heard it!"

Huo Wuji helplessly picked at his ear, his nonchalant attitude making Shui Shuheng's eyes blaze with anger.

Which matter do you want an explanation for?

Huo Wuji's nonchalant attitude fueled Shui Shuheng's anger. He slammed his fist on the table, his voice almost shaking the entire room: "What matter?! You dare ask me what matter?! Don't you have any idea what your Beast Merchant Guild did today?!"
