Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! Chapter 1128 - Ways to Stand Out

Chapter 1128: Ways to Stand Out

Meng Chao originally had no interest in joining the White Bone Battalion.

In his eyes, the Great Horn Army was just a springboard.

The reason why he blended in with the rat people’s rebel army and followed the Great Horn Army was to get in touch with the Wolf Clan’s battle group that had come to surround them.

Then, he would think of a way to infiltrate the latter and see the man who was about to rise up miraculously and start a war in the Other World, “Jackal” Ka.n.u.s.

Then, based on “Jackal” Ka.n.u.s’ performance, the comparison between the strength of the enemy, as well as the environment at that time, he would decide whether he should patiently guide this ambitious madman into becoming someone he could cooperate with, or…

He could directly kill his physical body and ambition in infancy.

As for the Ancient Dream Saintess…

Although the officers and priests of the Great Horn Army bragged about her, Meng Chao was not very interested in the strange girl with two pupils.

That was not to say Meng Chao did not believe in the so-called “divine revelation.”

There were G.o.ds and demons out there.

It did not matter what the true face of these “otherworldly demons” were, whether they were some kind of advanced civilization far beyond the limits of human imagination on Earth, or they were from billions of years ago, in the age of the ancient war, remnants of a fierce battle between the Ancients and the mother.

In short, those blessed by the G.o.ds and demons could control the supernatural forces that could destroy the world.

Meng Chao just did not quite believe that the Ancient Dream Saintess could receive true “divine revelation.”

Also, he did not quite believe that the Rat G.o.d was a real Supernatural Ent.i.ty.

The evidence was that in the history of his previous life, the Great Horn Army had spiraled out of control and failed to control the entire Picturesque Orchid Lake.

The Ancient Dream Saintess did not even leave her name behind. It was either that, or she was deliberately erased. In the vast tide of the era, she did not make any waves.

a.n.a.lyzing all the information gathered so far, she was probably just a puppet, an artificial idol, right?

Since Meng Chao already knew the puppet master’s name…

Why waste time on the puppet?

However, plans could not compare to changes.

The appearance of an unexpected factor caused him to change his mind.

On the afternoon of the day when the rat people’s rebel army met up with the White Bone Battalion cavalry, Meng Chao smelled Leaf’s scent.

Speaking of which, it had been almost two months since he parted ways with the rat youth.

During this period, every time Meng Chao went to a place, he would carefully sniff the surrounding environment, trying to distinguish the scent of the tracking powder that he had personally created from the complicated scent in the location.

During the first few days, he could still faintly catch the scent. He knew that the distance between him and Leaf in a straight line was only more than ten to twenty kilometers.

By the time he reached the sunken gra.s.sland, all the rat people were running around like headless flies. The scent of the tracking powder became increasingly thin and ethereal.

After rus.h.i.+ng out of the sunken gra.s.sland, Meng Chao could no longer smell the scent of the tracking powder that Leaf carried.

It puzzled him, but at the same time, he was slightly worried.

Leaf was a youth with a meticulous mind, strong observation skills, and great movement abilities. The speed of his growth had been astonis.h.i.+ng.

Meng Chao did not believe that something as small as secretly dumping some tracking powder when he was not expecting it would be difficult for him.

The tracking powder that he had given to Leaf was enough for him to dump a hundred times. It should not have been used up so quickly.

‘Could something bad have happened to the kid?’ Meng Chao muttered in his heart.

At that moment, the strong and pungent aura made Meng Chao realize that Leaf was very close to him.

He had actually become a member of the White Bone Battalion cavalry unit!

“As expected of the little guy that I personally trained. Not bad!”

Meng Chao was both surprised and happy.

However, when he thought about the tragedy that was about to happen, he could not help but furrow his brows.

The Great Horn Army was about to be destroyed.

As the trump card of the main forces, the White Bone Battalion would naturally be the enemy’s first target.

Even the Ancient Dream Saintess was like a clay bodhisattva crossing the river, unable to protect herself.

If Leaf joined this army that was known as the “sharp blades forged by the Ancient Dream Saintess herself,” how great would the result be?

Meng Chao planned to save Leaf.

Not only because the two of them knew each other…

It was also because Leaf was most likely in possession of a large amount of crucial information.

That included how the White Bone Battalion trained the elite rat militia soldiers, whether he had seen the Ancient Dream Saintess with his own eyes, the true face of this Saintess, the battle between the White Bone Battalion and the Howling Legion, and the truth of how the Nighthawk, who was a big shot of the Wolf Clan, died.

Through this information, Meng Chao was able to further a.n.a.lyze the relations.h.i.+p between the Great Horn Army and “Jackal” Ka.n.u.s.

There was another important point.

At that time, Leaf did not escape from the Blood Skull Arena alone.

He had also taken twenty-eight civilian rat servant soldiers whom Meng Chao had personally selected and trained.

They were all tough men who had received the advanced tactical concepts from Dragon City.

Since Leaf was in the White Bone camp, these rat civilian servant soldiers who were completely convinced by Meng Chao and listened to him were most likely also in the White Bone camp.

If Meng Chao could help them avoid the destruction of the Great Horn Legion, they would be able to rise up.

He would have a huge amount of manpower under him, and he would not have to do everything himself.

After a.n.a.lyzing the pros and Cons, Meng Chao had thought about sneaking into the White Bone Battalion’s camp to meet up with Leaf.

However, the White Bone Battalion and the normal rat militia were not stationed together.

Around the former camp, there were hundreds of wolves that acted as the first line of defense.

There were at least dozens of hidden sentries that heavily guarded the camp.

The elite soldiers of the White Bone Battalion liked to wear a skull mask made of beast bones on their faces. They did not want to reveal their true faces.

Even if Meng Chao could sneak in, it would be difficult for him to find an opportunity to talk to Leaf and the others in detail.

“Looks like we have to think of a way to join the White Bone Battalion.”

Meng Chao looked for Ice Storm and told her his plan.

Ever since more and more evidence showed that the existence of the Great Horn Army was a huge conspiracy, Ice Storm also realized that her journey to find her father and retrieve her mother’s belongings would not be so smooth.

Hearing Meng Chao say that there were probably dozens of his old subordinates in the White Bone camp, Ice Storm was also tempted.

With their current realms, it would not be difficult for them to stand out if they only showed a little bit of their strength.

However, they did not want to do that, because they had intercepted the temple thieves in Black-corner City.

The guilty Meng Chao and Ice Storm did not want to expose their true ident.i.ties in front of the officers and priests of the Great Horn Army, or even the Ancient Dream Saintess.

They had disguised themselves as two rat people who had their homes destroyed and had a deep-seated hatred for the clan warriors. They had barely made it to where they were today because of their hatred.

It was very strange for such rats to suddenly burst out with amazing combat ability on the battlefield and even grow totem armors from their bodies.

At that time, as long as the priests of the Great Horn Army cast a few suspicious glances at them, they would be easily exposed.

Therefore, if they wanted to join the White Bone Battalion, they needed to think carefully and grasp the concept of “standing out” perfectly.

…

“Charge! Kill! The Big-horned Rat G.o.d is staring at us!”

Three days later, Meng Chao’s rat people’s Liberation Army, together with seven or eight volunteer armies that had rushed over from all directions, once again gathered into a surging tide and charged at Hundred Blade City, which was located in the hinterland of the Gold Clan.

It was different from the small cities that the old, weak, and disabled had defended at the southern border.

Hundred Blade City was the first city that the Great Horn Army had besieged. In the war poems of the Turan civilization, it was a famous ancient city.

According to the legends, in the b.l.o.o.d.y battles ten thousand years ago, countless warriors had died there.

Before their heroic sacrifice, the splendid life-and-death battles had deeply touched the ancestral spirits.

The ancestral spirit sent down a blessing, turning the blood, organs, and corpses of these warriors into the most fertile nutrients, nouris.h.i.+ng the entire land.

It resulted in the underground area within a radius of dozens of miles to contain inexhaustible totem power.

After absorbing the totem power, the mandala tree that grew out had a trunk that was stronger than other mandala trees, and its branches were sharper.

Many mandala trees that were more than a thousand years old gradually showed the characteristics of metallization and crystallization.

At first glance, it was crystal clear and full of colors. It was like a steel jungle made of blades, spears, swords, and halberds.

After cutting off the branches of these mandala trees and slightly polis.h.i.+ng them, they would become the most powerful divine weapon.

Not only was it sharp, it was several times sharper than weapons made of ordinary metal.

Moreover, it contained rich totem power, which could help the wielder easily display powerful totem combat skills.

For advanced orcs who were not good at mining and metal smelting, these mandrake trees, which could naturally absorb metal elements and totem power from underground, were a gift from G.o.d.

Hundred Blade City, which produced a steady stream of divine weapons and ancestral spirits, was born.

For a long time, it was a glorious city that was comparable to Red-gold City and ranked in the top ten of Picturesque Orchid Lake.

Unfortunately, in the era of the great extermination order three thousand years ago, the army from the land of Holy Light made Hundred Blade City the priority target after they invaded the Gold Clan’s territory.

The believers of Holy Light not only poured into this famous city with a history of ten thousand years like a s.h.i.+ning tide, they destroyed all the temples in the city and burned down every workshop that was used to polish weapons. They also spread the raging flames to every corner of the city, and it burned for ten days and ten nights.

They also cast an incredible curse, allowing the power of the Holy Light to infiltrate the underground area near Hundred Blade City, disturbing and sealing the totem power beneath.

Even after the army of the Holy Light was defeated for a hundred years, the mandrake trees that grew back had lost its crystal clear, flowing, and colorful characteristics.

Although the branches and trunks still contained a large amount of metal elements, after a lot of tempering, they could still be turned into knives, spears, swords, and halberds.

However, the quality was not much higher than weapons forged with conventional methods. It had lost its magical ability of blowing hair and cutting iron like mud…

Because the output and quality were not satisfactory.

The rebuilt Hundred Blade City had also lost its glory of the past.

Be it in scale or defense, it was not even one-tenth of what it used to be.

However, this was still the entire Orchid Lake, a G.o.d-given land that everyone knew about.

If the Great Horn Army could really take down Hundred Blade City, it would seriously shake the Gold Clan’s rule.
