Chapter 227 Dragons regard food as their heaven

The old pope dinosaur's eyeballs were punctured by the weight of 60 tons, and bits of flesh from its brain, mixed with its platinum robe, gushed out from its seven orifices as spurting blood.

If ball lightning hadn't wiped out most of the dinosaurs, this place would probably have been littered with corpses long ago. Even so, the entire hall was almost stained red with dinosaur blood.

This is torture, it's pure torture! He could have killed that old dinosaur pope in one go.

This demon 'god' is enjoying the thrill of slaughter!
Two of the still-sturdy Tyrannosaurus Rex remained standing, but with a flash of sword light, the feet of these two tough dinosaurs were completely sliced ​​into extremely thin pieces of meat and thrown into the large hot pot in the corner of the dining table to cook.

That was originally meant to be a hot pot for Shanqing.

Their last shred of anger and courage vanished, and the remaining dinosaurs crawled to the Devouring Emperor, huddling together in a limp mass.

But Shanqing wouldn't even leave them this last bit of comfort.

The emperor was about to be devoured when Shan Qing grabbed him.

Shan Qingxu gripped the neck of the giant Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the Dinosaur Emperor was suspended in the air with his neck choked.

"Your Majesty the Devouring Emperor, do you know why I'm torturing and killing you all?"

The Devouring Emperor was completely unable to move an inch. His dinosaur eyes blinked with difficulty, and tears mixed with blood streamed down from his once infinitely majestic golden vertical pupils.

Shanqing didn't expect an immediate answer after asking the question. He continued, "Actually, as a native species of Earth, I don't have any ill feelings towards dinosaurs. I've even watched dinosaur cartoons. Even if you want to eat Earth later, it's just a matter of opposing perspectives."

"I came to this giant ring for a week, and at first I really wanted to negotiate, but I didn't expect things to turn out like this."

Shanqing pointed to the dinosaur carcasses scattered on the ground.

"But you really didn't give me that chance."

Shan Qing released his grip, and the Emperor Swallowed was slammed heavily to the ground with a loud bang.

Shanqing sat on the tray where his body had been placed, holding his sword, and said to the few remaining dinosaurs, "Before your army arrives at the palace, let me tell you about what I have seen and heard in the Great Ring over the past seven days."

"Before I begin, let me tell you the truth: there is another civilization four light-years away that is at war with humanity. Their technology is superior to ours, and I suspect it is even superior to the Devouring Empire. Based on this, I originally planned to try to persuade you to cooperate with humanity. After all, we all came from the same planet, we are all born from the same mother, you are the older brother, and humanity is the younger brother."

In return, I'll let humanity give you a couple of Saturn's moons to eat. Saturn has plenty of resource-rich moons anyway; it's just a pity you're so incompetent.

The Devouring Emperor stared at him, a thought suddenly dawning on it: 'So that's how it is.' No wonder Earth's humans possess such abundant martial virtue; it turns out everything has a reason.

Shanqing said in a tone of emotion:

"I've been very happy during my time in the Great Ring these past few days. I've met many interesting civilizations, such as those glowing mushrooms, balloon creatures, white dwarf starfish, and so on. Besides these civilizations that you raise, I often disguise myself as a Brachiosaurus and run around in the grasslands of the Great Ring. When I'm hungry, I eat grass, and when I'm thirsty, I drink water. Living in the Great Ring is so free and easy. Ah, how happy I am."

Shanqing suddenly lowered her voice, "But guess what?" "A carnivorous dragon discovered that you want to eat me," the Minister of Society said, mustering his courage.

"Quite the opposite." Shanqing shook his head. "It wasn't your carnivorous dinosaurs that first discovered me. I was grabbed by a few kind Triceratops, who then hid me in a cellar, allowing me to escape the search by the carnivorous dinosaurs."

"Carnivores eat herbivores; this is the natural order of Earth's evolution," the Minister of Social Affairs argued, even though he was terrified of this human devil.

Surprisingly, Shanqing did not kill him with a single sword strike.

"I know that the dinosaur world was divided into two classes: carnivores and herbivores. This is a normal natural evolution, and I can understand it. I don't mean to blame the dinosaurs. But what I can't understand is why you carnivorous dinosaurs so liked to eat highly intelligent individuals?"

The Minister of Social Affairs immediately fell silent.

Shanqing shook his head and began to recount the history of the Earth: "Two hundred years ago, there were many slaughterhouses on Earth. Humans wanted to turn the pigs, cows, and sheep they raised into idiots so that they wouldn't feel the fear of death. To reduce their suffering, Chinese pig butchers would cut open the pig's throat with a knife and let it bleed to death quickly within minutes, thus reducing their pain. European countries even evolved high-voltage electric shocks to kill pigs, which could kill them in an instant and reduce their suffering, because humans knew that pigs were relatively intelligent animals."

"In the early 21st century, a large number of vegetarian organizations and animal rights activists even evolved within humanity. Although I am annoyed by these people who nag about only being able to eat vegetarian food, and I hate these extreme vegetarians and extreme animal rights activists, one thing is undeniable: in the very early days, animal rights organizations without government intervention had good intentions. You have to understand that humans have only been well-fed for a few decades and have already started to indiscriminately show kindness."

"But you dinosaurs are different. You could have bred Brachiosaurus on a large scale to use them as meat, and cultivated them into a source of meat with a high meat yield and high fertility rate, just like humans raise chickens on a large scale. But instead, you insisted on cultivating their intelligence. You even set up universities, built hospitals and cities in Brachiosaurus farms. You confined the Brachiosaurus to a small place and cultivated them into beings that devoured ordinary residents."

"Then you will cruelly torture and kill these Brachiosaurus when they are 30 years old."

Shanqing pointed to the dinosaur carcasses scattered on the ground, "Your methods of torturing and killing Brachiosaurus are far more brutal than mine. In the past 6500 million years, about ten trillion Brachiosaurus with emotions, feelings, families, friends, and love have been consumed by you."

When Shanqing uttered the figure of ten trillion, his expression twitched almost imperceptibly; he was suppressing his anger.

"This is only Lianglong's data. I haven't compiled statistics on the other dragons, nor do I dare to. It's one thing for you to wipe out all civilizations outside the Devouring Empire, but how can you be so ruthless to your own dragons?"

Shanqing said, "Eating meat is fine, but what do you mean by torturing highly intelligent animals? You should know that the Lianglong college students who graduated from the Lianglong breeding area are no less intelligent than you Tyrannosaurus Rex, but they can only live to be 30 years old, or even be caught and made into barbecue right after graduation."

Shanqing gripped the White Dwarf Fish Sword tightly, even slightly deforming the hilt made of white dwarf matter, as he tried to calm his tone.

"Now, give me a reasonable answer, give me a reason that can convince me to spare your lives."

The Minister of Food, sitting next to the Minister of Social Affairs, whispered, "Emotions, emotions can improve the texture of meat."

"Improving the texture of the meat, is that the only reason?"

"...The Devouring Empire considers food as its most important necessity, and that is the biggest reason."

Shanqing took a deep breath and closed her eyes.
