Chapter 1308: Death Sage
“It seems that the biggest misunderstanding between us is the Ancient Dream Saintess. What a pity. If we had known each other a few years earlier… no, just a few months, I would have had enough time to explain the truth to you. I believe that our two like-minded partners would not have had such an intense and tragic conflict.”
The Wolf King let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile, “Believe me, you were completely wrong about the Ancient Dream Saintess’ life and death. I didn’t want to kill her, and you shouldn’t have saved her at all.”
“What do you mean?”
Meng Chao frowned and said, “Don’t tell me you want to deny the a.s.sa.s.sination of the Ancient Dream Saintess?”
“No, of course I won’t deny this, but please believe me. I don’t have any malice or hostility toward Saintess ancient dream. On the contrary, from a certain point of view, Saintess ancient dream is my only… friend. I hope that she can live a happy life and become the person she wants to be!”
The Wolf King Sighed and muttered, “When I first met the Ancient Dream Saintess, she wasn’t the spiritual leader of the Great Horn Army. She was just an extremely ugly little girl who had fled her hometown due to the plague, wandered the world, and experienced all the hardships in the world.
“At that time, I wasn’t in a good situation either. I was just a grave robber who struggled to survive under the claws of those wolves, tigers, and leopards.
“The two of us were like all the helpless rats. Facing the cruel fate, we could only huddle together to keep warm and lick each other’s wounds.
“It was also at that time that I discovered that the ancient Dream Saintess had some potential that even she herself didn’t realize. That was, her dream was not only very realistic, but it could also affect others and drag them into her illusory and real dream.
“In the beginning, the Saintess of the ancient dream did not know how to use her dreams.
“She was just like all the little girls who suffered in reality. She weaved an incomparably beautiful world in her dreams, a tomorrow full of hope, and a vague image of a savior who was about to descend from the sky and bring her out of the Sea of suffering.
“Every time she was mocked, whipped, and tortured during the day, and curled up into a ball at night, gradually falling into a dream while shivering, her dreams were particularly vivid and intense.
“Only when she was constantly comforted in her dreams could the little girl, who had lost all her family and hope in the plague since she was a child, clench her teeth and live to this day, instead of dying and rotting silently like countless of her peers.
“However, I feel that such dreams are far from enough.
“As she grows older, the Saintess of ancient dream will inevitably face more laborious work and harsher torture. More and more wounds will appear on her body that are so deep that her bones can be seen. She will not be able to hide and heal with just a few sweet dreams.
“Moreover, sooner or later, her potential will be discovered by the wolves and tigers. By then, the high and mighty figures may split open her skull and suck her brains!
“Since her dream is so powerful, why not make the dream bigger in order to change the fate of herself and the millions of rats?
“Therefore, I began to interfere with the ancient Dream Saintess’dream consciously.
“Through the dream, I tweaked her early memories and changed her personality imperceptibly.
“I also told her through the dream that the Rat G.o.d was about to descend and that the rats would be reborn and rise up miraculously.
“Of course, I didn’t forget to tell the ancient Dream Saintess through the dream that I had secretly excavated many lost temples and locations that were suitable to be the secret base of the Great Horn Army.”
Meng Chao nodded.
Wolf King’s words and the truth that he had learned through the ancient Dream Saintess’brain could be mutually verified.
Regardless of the motive, Wolf King did not lie on this issue at least.
“Then, I don’t understand even more. Since you said that you and the ancient Dream Saintess had ‘huddled together to keep warm and lick each other’s wounds’, how could you be so cold-blooded and Merciless?”
Meng Chao Thought for a moment and said, “I know that you were anxious to make the great horn army fall into a ‘leaderless state’so that you could take over the entire army without bloodshed after it completely collapsed.
“But with your relationship with the ancient Dream Saintess, there should be many ways to achieve this goal. Why did you choose the most extreme and worst way
“Because I want to fulfill her wish. I want her beautiful dream to have the most beautiful ending. I want the ancient Dream Saintess to become the real ancient Dream Saintess!”
The wolf king asked confidently with a clear conscience, “Reaper, you should have seen the true face of the ancient Dream Saintess, right? To be honest, do you think she is a true and qualified leader, even if she is just a spiritual leader?”
“This…”
Thinking of the ancient Dream Saintess"”Big-headed Baby”appearance, Meng Chao hesitated.
It wasn’t that he judged people based on their appearance.
However, from a genetic point of view, there were often fatal flaws in her genes when she looked like the ancient Dream Saintess.
Her ability to transmit information through dreams was obtained by constantly burning her brain.
During the cooling period after activating her ability, her temperament, intelligence, and calculation ability might not be stronger than ordinary rats, let alone compete with the elites of the five great clans.
In fact, according to what Meng Chao learned through leaf.
The ancient Dream Saintess was indeed not in charge of specific military affairs when the Great Horn Army advanced.
Her irreplaceable role was mainly reflected in three aspects.
First, her unparalleled affinity.
Second, she communicated with the Rat G.o.d through dreams and transmitted the rat G.o.d’s “Oracle”into the brains of every rat warrior, strengthening their faith and morale.
Third, she could predict the future and see the enemy ahead of time.
As for the specific military matters, they were handled by the generals under her.
These generals were mostly the leader of the rat militia in the arena or the cannon fodder unit commander of a clan battle group. Naturally, they had rich combat experience.
However, the ability to communicate with the Rat G.o.d came from ca.n.u.s’remote control.
The so-called ability to predict the enemy’s situation was also ca.n.u.s the jackal intentionally going easy on the Big Horn Army by leaking information about the Wolf clan’s leaders who were unwilling to obey him.
In other words, without the support of the Wolf King, it was difficult for the ancient Dream Saintess to become a qualified leader, even if she was just a spiritual leader.
“It seems that you already know the answer.”
The wolf king sighed, “From the beginning to the end, the ancient Dream Saintess was just an ignorant little girl who followed the tide. She was pushed by me to reach today step by step and climb to a height that shouldn’t belong to her.
“But, what’s next?
“Next, I Can’t push anymore.
“Think about it. If what appears in front of the Great Horn Army is not the Wolf Clan Battle Group commanded by me, but the Lion clan army commanded by the Horn of destruction or the tiger clan army commanded by the violent blade, would the ancient Dream Saintess’performance still be so free and easy, as if she was blessed by the ancestors?
“It’s impossible. Before the great horn army was completely annihilated, it had fought a series of magnificent battles. It was the result of a series of coincidences and meticulous operations. Even I wouldn’t be able to replicate it.
“If Saintess Gu Meng doesn’t die, what kind of performance will she perform in such a situation? What kind of impression will she leave on the mouse warriors? Where will she lead the fate of the Great Horn Army?”
Meng Chao narrowed his eyes and pondered.
“No matter how beautiful a dream is, it will always be poked open one day. Rather than waiting for the dream to turn into a nightmare and be poked open by someone else, it is better to poke it open when the dream is at its peak. That way, the deepest and most beautiful memories will be left behind.”
The Wolf King said, “The great horn riot has already attracted the attention of all the ultimate experts in the Lan Ze. It is impossible for me to hide behind the ancient Dream Saintess and command her from afar. With her real ability, it won’t be long before her true form is revealed under the gaze of the ultimate experts.
“At that time, all the rat folk warriors will be shocked and furious to discover that the spiritual leader they believe in is just a deformed, ugly baby monster. It turns out that the spokesperson of the Rat G.o.d doesn’t have the ability to communicate with the ancestors at all. The so-called foresight is nothing but a joke!
“Do you think that it will be more beneficial for the cause of the great horn army and the rat folk if all the rat folk warriors discover such an unbearable truth?
“Do you even think that the ancient Dream Saintess herself would be willing to live until then and die as a clown and continue to be the target of ridicule after her death if she knew the cause and effect?
“However, if the ancient Dream Saintess dies under hundred blades city according to my plan, after a series of glorious victories, when the ‘rat subjects’cause reaches its first peak, and not because of her lack of combat ability but because of her despicable a.s.sa.s.sination, everything will be different!
“No one would have seen the ancient Dream Saintess’deformed and ugly appearance.
“The impression she left on everyone would always be that of the Valkyrie, who was innocent, kind, brilliant, and predictable. She was able to communicate with the Rat G.o.d and was as close as a family to all the rat people’s warriors.
“No matter how furious the high and mighty wolves and leopards were, they would never be able to find any flaws in the ancient Dream Saintess. In fact, they would lose their chance to defeat the ancient Dream Saintess in a fair and square battle. The ancient Dream Saintess would become an immortal legend — a mere rat folk girl who had never received any Orthodox military training but had defeated n.o.ble and powerful clan warriors one after another. Even the Lion King and the Tiger King did not dare to fight her head-on. They could only send a.s.sa.s.sins to a.s.sa.s.sinate her in the most shameless and cowardly way.
“Can you imagine how inspiring such a legend will be for the morale of the rat people and how heavy a blow it will be for the pride of the Warriors of the Clan?
“Finally, the ancient Dream Saintess herself does not have to face the painful truth. She will never know that she is just an ordinary girl who does not have any outstanding organizing and commanding ability. She is not the lucky one or the savior chosen by the Rat G.o.d. She is just a puppet that is controlled by a remote control.
“She will live her life happily in the most beautiful dream. After she dies, she will continue to enjoy the worship and worship of countless rats!
“Therefore, you really shouldn’t have saved her.
“Because she is the Saintess of the ancient dream.
“It is impossible for a living person to become a saint.
“Only the dead are qualified to become a real Saintess
