Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 923 - Venture Capital



Chapter 923: Venture Capital

When Meng Chao introduced himself, he did not use the transliteration of his real name in the Turan language.

Instead, he chose to translate these two words, “fierce” and “super,” in the Turan language.

However, the Turan language that he knew was from the fragments of his unpredictable previous life memories.

In addition, he had eavesdropped on the red-eyed rat people’s conversations over the past few days and taught himself.

So, Meng Chao did not know that in the Turan language, when a word was used in a person’s name, it had to be changed according to their identity, clan, and strength… Plus, a suffix that represented gender had to be added.

In Leaf’s heart, the mysterious Meng Chao was already an incomparably tyrannical existence.

As such, the young man’s eyes lit up according to the Turan people’s naming laws, and he blurted out, “So you’re the legendary Super Fierce Man, Sir?”

Meng Chao, whose face was as cold as a corpse, finally could not help but twitch.

“Forget it.”

Meng Chao said, “You should call me… Reaper!”

Leaf nodded and kindly replied, “I understand. You’re heavily injured now, so it’s not suitable for you to use such a domineering name like Super Fierce Man. It will cause trouble. Reaper is not much better than ‘grower’ and ‘gatherer.’ No one will be snatching this name from you.”

“What?”

Meng Chao was stunned for a moment. “Snatch my name? What do you mean? Can someone still snatch my name?”

Leaf revealed an expression that said, “You’ve indeed lost your memory.” He nodded and said, “Of course. Everyone likes a mighty and domineering name. It’s very easy for a name to be snatched!”

After the young man’s explanation, Meng Chao realized that the Turan people’s naming habits were very unique.

When they were just born, Turan parents would only give their children a random nickname.

Basically, they would name their children after everything they saw.

For example, the leaves and fruits of the mandrake tree, the weeds on the ground, the clouds and birds in the sky, the mountains and rivers in the distance, and so on.

If the children were unlucky, it would be normal for them to be called Dog Sh*t or something like that.

For an ordinary name like “Leaf,” there would be at least 80,000 of them in the entire Picturesque Orchid Lake if not 100,000!

As for good names that could show off their valor and might, such as Super Fierce Man or something similar, the Turan people believed that they were both honorable and sacred things that had to be taken by the child himself when he grew up.

There were three ways to snatch names.

The first way was to hunt powerful totem beasts or to attack the “land with eternal illumination of Holy Light” in the north and obtain outstanding military achievements.

If one killed a ferocious tiger, one could be called Tiger Fighter.

If one captured a brutal flood dragon alive, one would be qualified to be called Dragon Catcher.

There were also Dragon Stinger, Troll Hunter, City Breaker, and Holy Light Destroyer. They all came from this practice.

The process of obtaining a name for oneself was also a rite of passage for the Turan people.

Only by obtaining a great name would one be considered a true warrior of Turan.

Many of the rat people would not be able to pass this hurdle and would forever display their lowly nicknames to others.

This was also an important reason why they were despised by the clan elders.

The second type was to obtain powerful totems that possessed extremely special abilities and displayed their signature skills.

Names such as ‘Lightning Controller’, ‘Flame Devourer’, and ‘Skeleton Dancer’ all came from this.

The third type was very simple and crude, and was very suitable for the people of Turan.

After discovering who had a nice name and felt that the other party was too weak to deserve such a domineering name, they challenged the other party.

As long as he could defeat or even kill the other party, he would be able to steal the other party’s name and glory.

For example, Leaf did not have a big name yet. If he walked on the streets of Black-corner City and heard a guy named Tiger Slayer beside him and felt that this name was not bad, he could issue a challenge on the spot.

As long as he won, he would be called Tiger Slayer in the future, and the other party could only be called “Leaf.”

If he struck too heavily and accidentally killed the other party, then he would be even more powerful.

Not only could he steal the other party’s name, he could also add the word “kill” in front of it. In the future, he would be called Tiger Slayer.

Of course, if he was accidentally killed by another Turan warrior in two days, and the other party stole his name, he would also have the right to add the word “kill” in front of it. He would be called Tiger Slayer.

By analogy, even if there were Turan people called Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill Tiger Killer, there would still be some. Moreover, they were very powerful fellows. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to steal such a powerful name.

Therefore, it was actually very simple to judge the strength of a Turan warrior. All that was needed was to see if his name was domineering.

His name was ordinary, and his strength might not be weak.

However, his name was domineering, and he had been swaggering around the city for a long time without being killed. This meant that this person had absolute strength and killed all those who wanted to steal his name.

“Uncle used to be called ‘super tough guy’with such an arrogant name. He must be a very powerful character. Who knows, your injuries might have been caused by others coveting your name, ambushing or even ganging up on you.”

Leaf said very seriously, “I believe that uncle’s real strength is definitely worthy of the good name ‘Super Tough guy’. But for the time being, it’s better to be patient and keep a low profile.

“Mom and Brother have taught me the principle of repaying a debt of gratitude. Uncle helped me gain strength, and I will definitely help uncle complete the mission so that you can use the good name ‘Super Tough Guy’again as soon as possible!”

“I… I thank you!”

Meng Chao said, “However, can we not mention ‘Super Fierce Man anymore, in case others hear us and get into trouble? Reaper, remember, my name is ‘Reaper’!

“Now, go and cultivate!”

It was not until the young man calmed down in a corner and gradually entered a meditative state that Meng Chao could not help but grunt.

Cold sweat the size of beans oozed out of his forehead.

His situation wasn’t as smooth as it seemed on the surface, and victory was within his grasp.

Instead, it was so terrible that it couldn’t be any worse.

Although it had been at least a month since the great battle with “Lu Siya.”

He still couldn’t get rid of the fatal side effects of Ultimate Burning.

Whether it was the six dragon meridians, the 108 main meridians, or the 1,024 branches, they were all like dry streams. Earthworms under the scorching sun, scorched vines, and filled with cracks.

Moreover, although he had escaped from the monster’s main brain’s clutches, he was still alive.

However, in the fierce battle with the undead creatures, a large number of Blood Flower spores and the weird algae that condensed into a Green Tide had invaded his body.

It was somewhat like the relationship between viruses and the immune system.

Human beings were exposed to countless bacteria and viruses every day.

As long as the immune system worked normally and had a strong resistance, most of the bacteria could be killed instantly.

If he were in the five-star heavenly state, at his peak state, he could ignite the spiritual flame with just a thought and burn all the intruders into ashes.

But now, not to mention the five-star spirit vision, even maintaining the one-star spirit stripe realm for a long time was very difficult.

The viruses, spores, and fungi that invaded his body naturally caused a lot of trouble. Not only would his wounds not heal for a long time, they would even interfere with his life magnetic field and brain, affecting his thoughts and emotions.

As a result, it would be very difficult for him to even summon the ‘Flame Spark’.

Of course, even if he summoned it, it would be in vain.

That was because when he fell from the Super Waterfall, the ‘Guillotine’, which was thousands of meters away from him, Meng Chao had already exhausted all of his contribution points. Only then could he barely maintain a half-dead ‘standby state’and not directly ‘shut down’or even ‘crash’.

But it was all worth it.

Because he was still alive.

There was hope if he was alive.

A comeback, a desperate counterattack, a hope to change everything.

Although his body was extremely weak.

But his soul fire was burning even more vigorously than before.

Moreover, it was unknown whether it was because his brain suffered a violent shock when he fell from Guillotine, which activated a large number of sealed fragments of his past life’s memories.

Or was it because he had returned to his old place—Picturesque Orchid Lake—and returned to the starting point of his long journey as a Ghost Assassin in his previous life

Compared with his hometown in Dragon City, he not only remembered more valuable information, coordinates, characters, and skills.

Even his temperament had undergone an earth-shattering change.

If he was in Dragon City, even after experiencing a series of bloody battles, he still had the identity of a university student, unable to completely shake off the naivety of his student days.

At this moment, he was at Picturesque Orchid Lake and had crawled out from the deepest part of Hell. However, he found that he had fallen into another hell. He was more like the ghost assassin who was good at stealth, hibernation, assassination, and destruction in his previous life.

Or rather, he was more like “Doomsday Meng Chao.”

“I’ve finally found a suitable candidate.”

Looking at Leaf who had quickly entered a meditative state, Meng Chao nodded his head in satisfaction.

The young man was smarter than he had imagined.

He should have a chance to complete the mission.

Although it was a bit risky, Meng Chao had no other choice.

With his own strength, even if he could fight his way out of the dungeon, he would be exposed too early and overdraw himself again. Then, he would be beyond redemption.

In order to prevent the Dragon City civilization from getting involved in the war between worlds too early, he had to nurture some allies within the high-level orcs.

The youth named Leaf was only the first.

From the looks of it, this risky investment was worth it.

At least, without Leaf, Meng Chao wouldn’t have thought of such a fatal thing as “the more domineering the name of the Turan, the more powerful they are.”.

“Quickly record the key information of the new discovery.”

Meng Chao used the slightest movement, took a deep breath, and sank into the sewage.

Between his fingers, there was an extremely sharp totem beast bone piece that was as thin as a Cicada’s wing.

Using the bone piece, he was able to leave dense, tiny words on the ground that had been soaked through by the sewage.

These tiny words were not even written on Earth.

They were shorthand symbols that he had learned from the black skeleton training camp in his previous life.

For the time being, only he alone could understand them.

Moreover, it could be completely erased with just a light wipe.

Even if the Turan drained all the sewage in the dungeon, they would only find traces of a blob of his palm.
