Chapter 1149: The True Army
Different from the concept of “priestesses” on Earth, only the strongest, fiercest, and most brutal warriors in Picturesque Orchid Lake could be qualified for such glory.
Only a body made of steel and iron and an unyielding will could grit their teeth and endure the pain of being torn apart when the power of the ancestral spirit descended into their bodies. They would make themselves the best “vessel” for the ancestral spirit.
This high-ranking priest of the Great Horn Army was no less powerful than a Wolf Clan officer.
When he had mysteriously disappeared behind Meng Chao, Meng Chao had guessed that he would personally take care of the officer of the Wolf Clan.
As long as Meng Chao acted as fearless as possible and could divert the attention of the officer of the Wolf Clan and buy time for the high-ranking priest, it would be enough.
As expected!
This high priest should have the bloodline of the Lightning clan.
His feet were as sharp as an eagle’s claws that were magnified several times.
The front and back claws pierced deeply into the shoulder of the wolf officer, but the shoulder blades were firmly locked, making it impossible for the wolf officer to raise his arms.
The two claws that grew horizontally like human thumbs were embedded into the neck of the wolf officer and were placed horizontally on the carotid artery.
The cruel smile on the wolf officer’s face instantly froze.
Endless fear and despair exploded in his eyes.
From the depths of his throat came the roar of a trapped beast.
He tried to ignore the broken shoulder blades and swing his blade upward to cut off the high priest’s legs.
However, the latter did not leave him any openings.
The muscles on his legs expanded, and the claws suddenly contracted. With a fierce twist and pull, the wolf officer’s shoulder blades, cervical vertebrae, carotid artery, and part of his throat were instantly torn to pieces.
Then, with a shake of his arms, the metal wings embedded in the armor all stood up. The mysterious and complicated runes engraved on them also emitted a dazzling light and shot out powerful air currents, they actually condensed into two invisible giant wings, propelling his entire body into the air.
Naturally, the wolf race officer was also tightly grabbed by his cervical vertebra and hung up in the air like a rope.
Even with the valor of the officer of the Wolf Clan.
He had no leverage in the air and could only be butchered.
After a symbolic struggle, the high priest of the Great Horn Army twisted the head of the officer of the Wolf clan and his helmet off with a cracking sound.
The missing head landed heavily on the ground and smashed into the wall of fire.
Blood spurted out of the shocking wound and gradually extinguished the wall of fire.
The wolf elites behind the wall of fire were dumbfounded and dazed.
They had never expected that their trusted officer would not be a match for the mouse people.
It was as if the high priest of the Great Horn Army had not only torn apart the officer’s neck.
It also included the will to resist of all the elites of the Wolf clan present.
The High Priestess held the head of the Wolf clan officer, who had died with his eyes wide open.
He gazed deeply in Meng Chao’s direction and nodded slightly, as if praising Meng Chao’s bravery and loyalty.
Then, he let out an ear-piercing screech and raised the head of the Wolf clan officer high in the air.
The helmet worn by the Wolf clan officer was particularly gorgeous.
Even if one could not see his face clearly, as long as one saw the wolf fang and wolf hair on the helmet, one would know that this was definitely the head of a Wolf Clan n.o.ble.
Within a radius of several hundred arms, the Wolf clan elites who saw this head were all dumbfounded. They felt as if their worldview had collapsed and the entire world had been changed beyond recognition.
However, the mouse warriors were greatly encouraged. They became more and more convinced that the big horn rat G.o.d must be protecting and blessing them from above the clouds.
Even Meng Chao was secretly speechless.
The move that the high-level priest had used just now was fluid and unpredictable. Without decades of hard work, it was impossible for it to be refined to such perfection.
“Who are these high-level priests of the Big Horn Army?”
Meng Chao did not believe that they were rats who had only trained their martial skills for a few years.
Even if the ancient Dream Saintess could use mysterious methods to send her will into the bodies of these high-ranking oracles and display exquisite martial skills, the high-ranking oracles would not be able to resist her.
However, if their bodies could not keep up and did not form the corresponding muscle memory and conditioned reflexes, it would be impossible for them to unleash 100% of their power and kill the Wolf tribe officers in an instant.
In the white bone camp, there was far more than one such powerful high-ranking priest.
At the same time that the high-ranking priest in front of Meng Chao instantly killed the Wolf tribe officer.
In other directions of the jungle battlefield, the high-ranking officers and high-ranking priests of the Great Horn Army also attacked one after another. They attacked the basic commanders of the Wolf tribe reinforcements in a swift and fierce manner that exceeded the opponent’s imagination, they completely paralyzed the organizational structure of the Wolf Clan’s reinforcements.
With the battle progressing to this stage, there was no longer any suspense about victory or defeat.
Especially when tens of thousands of ragged-clothed soldiers holding stone hammers and dung pitchforks, their eyes shone with a fanatical light that was even more fanatical than the elites of the white bone battalion. The flood-like rat army came whistling over from the edge of the jungle, they drowned and devoured everything.
The reinforcements of the Wolf clan completely collapsed.
These proud and arrogant warriors of the clan were, after all, flesh and blood.
When the belief of “Under the protection of the ancestral spirit, invincible in battle”was shattered into pieces and trampled into the mud.
Their survival instinct as carbon-based intelligent beings surged in the depths of their brain, gradually suppressing the illusory sense of honor.
“The Big Horn Rat G.o.d is real!”
“Otherwise, how could we, pure-blooded warriors of the clan, be defeated by a group of rats?”
“No, we didn’t lose to these rats, but to a newly awakened, hungry, true ancestral spirit!”
This thought became the last straw that crushed the camel.
Half an hour later, the battle ended.
The Great Horn Army once again obtained a glorious victory, and they wiped out the reinforcements of the Wolf tribe that were rushing to hundred blade city.
When the last howl came to an abrupt end.
All the living, b.l.o.o.d.y, riddled, wounded, badly wounded, burned, exhausted, and struggling rat tribe warriors were so happy that they cried and howled at the sky.
When they saw the strange phenomenon in the sky, the joy of victory turned into the firmest and deepest belief.
“Look!”
It was unknown who was the first to point at the clouds in the sky.
It was dusk.
The setting sun that was as red as blood dyed the clouds into a red sea.
In the Red Sea, the wind was blowing and the clouds were relaxing, as if the waves were crashing on the sh.o.r.e. Countless clouds piled up and formed a huge, solemn, and holy statue.
The horn on top of his head was like a flame. He was wearing armor made of bones, and there was a blood-stained war flag on his back. He looked invincible, it was the ancestor spirit who had just woken up from his ten thousand years of sleep — The Rat G.o.d!
“The Rat G.o.d has appeared!”
“It is indeed the Rat G.o.d who has been protecting us in the sky!”
All the RAT soldiers kneeled on the ground and worshipped the big-horned rat G.o.d in the clouds.
However, Meng Chao’s attention was not projected to the clouds. Instead, it spread out and watched the oracles who were wearing the ‘antenna helmets’in the crowd with great interest.
In his eyes, the red clouds in the sky did not have any magical changes, much less the appearance of the big-horned rat G.o.d.
On the contrary, the helmets of the high-level priests were releasing extremely powerful spiritual and magnetic waves. They were like brain waves that were sizzling and drilling into the brains of the surrounding rat soldiers.
The brain waves of the rat soldiers were stimulated, triggering a chain reaction that was like an avalanche. A phenomenon similar to ma.s.s hysteria was created, causing everyone to see the same illusion.
Of course, Meng Chao did not despise the high-ranking priests just because they were playing tricks.
It was not easy to make tens of thousands of rat soldiers have the same illusion at the same time and bring their wills together.
Although the illusion was fake.
The combat ability that was brought about by it was real.
After experiencing such an ambush, Meng Chao’s doubts did not diminish. Instead, they grew more and more.
Originally, he thought that the great horn army was just a mob of rats who had been deceived, used, and put together in a desperate situation. They were not a real army at all, and their combat strength was quite suspicious.
But now, it seemed that at least the core of the Great Horn Army, the White Bone Battalion, was a strong army that was superior to the clan battle group in many aspects, and even had a battlefield communication ability that surpa.s.sed the standard of Dragon City.
And the high-ranking officers and high-ranking priests hidden behind the great horn helmet and mysterious mask.
Were not as simple as ordinary rat people. Instead, they were like professional warriors who had begun their harsh training as soon as they were born.
This was a real army.
Here came the problem.
Even if this army was not enough to conquer red gold city.
In the history of his previous life, how did it suddenly collapse and disappear without a Trace?
