  However, Ice Storm could not hold it in any longer.

  If the servants that Meng Chao had “handpicked” for her from the depths of the dungeon were considered “ordinary,” then this middle-aged man, whose hands and feet were even longer than Leaf’s and whose face was full of wrinkles, was simply ‘crooked’.

  Ice storm sized Spider up from head to tail for a few rounds, but she could not see what qualifications this guy, who seemed to be able to be blown down by a gust of wind, had to become her servant.

  “Is this guy named Spider more powerful than those brawny men who have passed the Path of Glory?”


  Ice storm suppressed his simmering anger and asked with a frown.

  “I don’t know.”


  Meng Chao shook his head and indifferently said, “However, if he is placed next to the ten Brawny men who have passed the Path of Glory and locked in the same cell with a totem beast, I dare to bet that the one who can last until the end is definitely this Spider.”


  Ice Storm raised his white eyebrows.

  He did not expect Meng Chao to have such a high opinion of this middle-aged man.

  “Why?”The snow leopard female warrior could not help but ask.

  “Because he was the one who could last the longest in the depths of the dungeon after me.”


  Meng Chao said, “He could last for ten days in the depths of the dungeon, but he was still alive and kicking.”


  “But he was very thin and weak.”


  “He didn’t get many fried mandrake fruits,” Ice Storm said

  “That’s exactly what made him so powerful.”


  Meng Chao said, “If he was a strong rat, he would have been able to get the most food as soon as he entered the dungeon. He would have been eating stronger and stronger, and soon, no one would dare to compete with him. He would have been able to climb out of the dungeon and enter the recruit training camp after two or three days of comfort. Could it be that he was not that tall?

  “However, Spider looked so thin and weak, and his physical strength was gradually declining. He had to go all out every round. Even if he managed to grab the fried datura fruit, there was no guarantee that others would not snatch it from his hands again.

  “For such a person, every round of food delivery was a life-and-death test.

  “He had to mobilize all his strength, wisdom, strategies, and even understand the hearts of the people. He had to know how to make choices and learn how to cooperate in order to pass the test.

  “And he passed dozens of life-and-death tests. Although his performance was not very eye-catching, of course, if a person like him performed too well, he would have been the first to stand out and be besieged by others.

  “But he survived in the end. He could still climb out of the dungeon with his own strength and straightened his back.

  “That’s why I believe that if he and those burly men who have not passed the life-and-death tests were put into the worst environment at the same time, he would definitely be the last one to live.”


  Ice storm was obviously in disbelief.

  Meng Chao smiled and continued, “Moreover, if I’m not wrong, he even hid some of his strength. He’s definitely not as weak as he looks on the surface.”


  “What?”


  Ice Storm’s curiosity was piqued.

  She put her hands behind her back and slowly walked past the servants.

  When she passed by Spider, she did not even look at him.

  However, after walking four or five arms’ worth of distance, she suddenly swung her tail and threw a sharp icicle at Spider’s face.

  Spider was shocked.

  Instinctively, his four limbs suddenly contracted and flicked.

  His entire body was like a huge Spider. With his four legs on the ground, he twisted his strange posture and dodged the seemingly ferocious but in fact, it was all ice flowers. There was no lethality in the attack at all.

  The ice flowers turned into cold sweat on his forehead.

  Spider secretly complained.

  He knew that it would not be so easy to escape from the heavily guarded Blood Skull Arena and this black-haired, black-eyed monster.

  However, Ice Storm was greatly surprised.

  “As expected!”


  She said in surprise and joy, “How did you see through it? What else can you see?”


  Meng Chao smiled slightly and ignored the first half of the question. He answered the second half of the question directly, “I can also tell that he is a hunter.”


  “A private hunter?”


  This made Ice Storm even more surprised.

  The water plants in Picturesque Orchid Lake were luxuriant, and the mandrake trees were deeply rooted in the worst environment. This caused the mountains and plains to be filled with lush forests.

  Between the grasslands and the forests, there were naturally countless birds and beasts.

  However, without the permission and leadership of the tribal lords, the rat people could not hunt without permission.

  On the surface, the reason was that the cowardly rats who had filthy blood flowing in their bodies were not worthy to engage in such a noble and courageous occupation like hunting.

  In reality, it was the tribal lords who needed a large number of totem beasts to appear in the mountains and forests.

  The totem beasts contained weak totem power within their bodies.

  In the words of the Dragon City civilization, it was the flesh and blood of a superbeast that was rich in spiritual energy.

  The clan elders had swallowed enough totem beast flesh and blood to become stronger and stronger. At the same time, they also used the bones and blood of the totem beasts to strengthen their own totems.

  This was the same as the superhumans of Dragon City.

  However, the totem beasts, which were equivalent to monsters, were also existences with astonishing appetites.

  Only when a large number of wild beasts acted as the foundation of the food chain could a large number of totem beasts appear for the elders of the clan to hunt, devour, and use.

  If the rats, who were hundreds of times more numerous than the elders of the clan, all ate the marrow and knew the taste. Instead of eating the mandala fruit, they would like to eat meat and eat all the wild beasts.

  The number of totem beasts that lacked food would definitely be greatly reduced.

  That would affect the enjoyment of the elders of the clan.

  Therefore, the five great clans had issued a hunting ban against the rat people.

  Of course, with the mandala fruit in abundance, the rat people were not willing to risk their lives to go into the deep mountains and forests to hunt.

  Although to the powerful Turan people, ordinary wild beasts were nothing.

  But totem beasts were even more terrifying than monsters.

  To put it simply, totem beasts could be considered close relatives of monsters.

  It was just that their numbers were not as many as the torrential beast horde on Monster Mountain Range. Moreover, they lacked a “mother” to integrate all the totem beasts.

  Therefore, they had been suppressed and even raised by the Turan people.

  However, compared to the monsters, the totem beasts also had a very terrifying aspect.

  That was that their bodies contained ‘totem power’. Just like the totem warriors, they could summon totem armors.

  Just Imagine, the monsters that were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws were already very difficult to deal with.

  If the monsters’ bodies could still secrete substances that were similar to liquid metal, they could form ferocious armors and even complex mechanical structures on the surface of their bodies.

  That was simply a nightmare for carbon-based intelligent creatures.

  Even the warriors of the clan with noble bloodlines had a very high casualty rate when hunting totem beasts.

  For the rats who lacked totem power, totem beasts were an existence that they could not contend against.

  Under normal circumstances, it was simply because they were tired of eating mandala fruits for a change of taste that they were unable to attract the rats into the mountains to hunt.

  More commonly, they would be escorted by the elders of the clan and sent to the depths of the forest where totem beasts frequently appeared as bait to lure the totem beasts out for the elders.

  The rats who took the risk of losing their heads and wanted to be private hunters were all highly skilled and audacious existences.

  Ice Storm was interested in Spider.

  It was the glorious era now.

  The rules of the prosperous era, including the hunting ban, were all shattered.

  Moreover, she was not from the Blood Hoof Clan, so she had no interest in defending the hunting ban for the Blood Hoof Clan.

  “You’re a hunter?”


  She looked at Spider with interest.

  The wrinkles of the middle-aged rat citizen crumpled into a ball, making him look even more miserable. He did not know how to answer.

  Ice Storm turned her gaze to Meng Chao again.

  “People who work or fight all year round have calluses all over their hands, and there are a lot of scars left on their bodies. However, the calluses and scars of collectors, growers, reapers, hunters, and even professional warriors are all different.”


  Meng Chao knew what Ice Storm was going to ask, so he calmly answered, “Observe carefully the distribution of calluses on his hands, the faint scars on his body, and the lines of his muscles. You will naturally be able to tell that he is an experienced and well-trained hunter.”


  The corner of Ice Storm’s eyes twitched.

  He thought to himself, “How can I ‘naturally’ tell? How is this ‘natural?!'”


  Meng Chao sensed Spider’s nervousness and patted his shoulder. He smiled and said, “Don’t be afraid, uncle. Since you’ve persevered until now, no one will hold you responsible for hunting on your own anymore.

  “On the contrary, you’ll have the chance to go to a bigger and more dangerous hunting ground with more abundant prey. I guarantee that as long as you use all your skills, you’ll definitely be able to hunt for what you want.”


  As he said this, Meng Chao winked at Spider.

  Spider was stunned.

  The heart hanging in his throat fell back to his chest.

  For some reason, he immediately believed the words of his “cellmate” who had been with him for ten days and ten nights.

  Moreover, looking at Meng Chao’s black hair and black eyes, he had a faint feeling.

  Meng Chao knew what he wanted to do.

  He knew that he wanted to escape.

  He wanted to escape from the Blood Skull Arena, from Black-corner City, and to return to the side of his wives and children.

  However, Meng Chao would never report to anyone.

  Moreover, as long as he could give Meng Chao what he wanted, Meng Chao would give him a helping hand at the critical moment.

  The situation of the other rat subjects who stood in line with Spider was not much different.

  They were all not very tall, but they were all highly skilled crooks.

  They were the “talents” that Meng Chao had carefully selected after observing them in the dark for ten days. They might be able to help him complete his mission.

  When they were hiding in the dark and had nothing to do, other than piecing together the memory fragments from their previous lives and deducing the progress of the war between worlds, the only fun they had was observing the rat subjects in the dungeon.

  It was not just the cells that they were in.

  It also included the hundreds of cells that were filled with rat people on both sides of the corridor.

  It was not just with the naked eye.

  He also used his ears that were comparable to radar and eavesdropping devices to eavesdrop on the rat people’s bloody fights and whispers, as well as their heartbeat, breathing, and the sounds of their muscles tensing up.

  He also used his extremely sharp life magnetic field to sense their burning desire to live like flames.

  To find those who, in the darkest desperation, are not willing to give up hope.

  Chapter 950 - The Cooperation of the Tanks in the Era of Transcendence

  Meng Chao found that such people often had one thing in common.

  They were like Leaf. They had not yet lost their most basic emotions and had become pure killing weapons.

  At the very least, they understood hatred.

  They hated the warriors of the clan who had destroyed their homes.

  It sounded a little unbelievable, but according to Meng Chao’s observation, not all the rat people hated the real culprit who had destroyed their homes and killed their loved ones.

  After a long journey, going through the gates of hell, leaving their destroyed homes, starving for a few days and nights, and getting a little food from the old men, and……, believing in the so-called “The ancestral spirits are watching you and seizing the Supreme Glory,”.

  Many red-eyed rat people forgot who the real murderer was who destroyed their lives and everything.

  They no longer hated the murderer.

  They only wanted to join the clan and become a new murderer.

  This was not a mentality unique to the Tulan people.

  It was the same for the people of Earth.

  In the history of Earth, countless armies had used similar methods to destroy the homes of the civilians, seize their crops, kill their families, and force the civilians who had no other choice to follow them.

  This was called ‘kidnapping’.

  Many times, an army of 3,000 to 5,000 people would quickly expand into an army of hundreds of thousands of people after burning, killing, looting, and kidnapping the civilians along the way.

  In such an army, humans were no longer humans, but beasts from head to toe.

  All the victims forgot about their hatred and became new perpetrators. They only wanted to increase the pain they endured by another ten times before throwing themselves at new victims.

  For the simplest purpose.

  To live.

  Even if they could live for one more second, they could do whatever they wanted.

  Meng Chao didn’t want to spread the technology and martial arts of Dragon City to such an army.

  Although it was very extravagant to talk about “Morality”and “Humanity”before the end of the world.

  But even from the perspective of cold benefits, this kind of army, which was constantly wrapped up, inflated, and supported purely by the desire to kill, was also the most vulnerable army.

  When things were going well, they would bared their fangs and brandished their claws, be aggressive, and sweep away the clouds. They would be insufferably arrogant and make enemies on all sides.

  When the two sides were in a stalemate or showed signs of failure, they would immediately collapse and spiral into destruction.

  This was proven by the history of Earth and the future of the other world.

  And an army formed by a “Person”who had normal emotions and knew who to love and who to hate, even if it was not as ferocious and terrifying as the former on the surface, it was more resilient than a pure killing machine and could be unyielding, they could create even greater miracles.

  This was what Meng Chao needed.

  He needed the Turan civilization to have more emotions and humanity besides valor and madness so that they would become more tenacious. Only then would they be able to resist the attack of the land of eternal Holy Light and serve as Dragon City’s perfect line of defense.

  Of course, this was not cheating Ice Storm because these rat people who had emotions and humanity were currently the most suitable servants for Ice Storm.

  The female snow leopard warrior, on the other hand, was very doubtful.

  Although she had accepted the fact that Spider was an experienced and sophisticated private hunter, she still could not figure out how to lead this group of people to defeat the enemy.

  However, when she saw the wrinkles on Spider’s face and the crooked faces of the few bandits next to him, she racked her brains, but she still could not figure out how to lead this group of people to defeat the enemy.

  “Can such a group of servants really unleash a powerful attack?”


  “Of course not.” Ice storm frowned and said, “You suggest that I don’t even choose the strong man in the recruit training camp who is the second person to finish the Path of Glory and has the bloodline of the Barbarian Elephant Clan.

  “How much offensive power can these people in front of me display?”


  “Well, I’m afraid that their offensive power is not high. At least in five short days, I don’t have the ability to turn stone into gold. It’s impossible for me to make them all transform and improve by leaps and bounds like the gifted Leaf.”


  Meng Chao said, “However, when they come to the arena, their mission is not to attack, but to ‘exist’. They just need to display their strengths and do their best to live until the last moment!”


  “What?”


  This was a brand-new theory that the ace Gladiators had never heard before. Ice Storm widened her eyes and said, “They don’t need to attack, they just need to survive. Then, who is responsible for attacking?”


  “Of course it’s you, Lady Ice Storm!” Meng Chao said matter-of-factly.

  “Aren’t you the most powerful ace in the entire Blood Skull Arena? Isn’t your Mithril Ripper a divine weapon that has drunk the blood of countless gladiators? “With such a divine weapon, it’s ridiculous to leave it unused and ask these weak servants to move their thin arms and legs.”


  Ice Storm frowned deeply. “So, I painstakingly selected thirty servants and fed you with a large amount of food and secret medicines to make you fat and strong so that you could watch the show and cheer for me while I kill everyone?”


  “You’ve misunderstood me, Lady Ice Storm.”


  Meng Chao smiled and pretended that he did not see the crystal-clear fur on the back of the female snow leopard warrior’s neck. She was so angry that they were exploding one by one. He calmly said, “Just because the servants are not the main attackers doesn’t mean that the servants don’t have to do anything.

  “Just like a saber, the real blood is the blade. It doesn’t mean that the back, handle, and scabbard of the saber are all useless. It doesn’t mean that without these things, the blade can still display its strongest power alone!”


  Ice storm was deep in thought.

  “If a clan warrior equipped with totem armor has a combat ability of at least 100, a rat civilian servant soldier who hasn’t been through the real battlefield is at most a piece of trash with a combat ability of 5. Even if these pieces of trash swarmed up, what use would it be?”


  Meng Chao struck while the iron was hot, “However, winning or losing is not the only thing that determines the outcome of a battle!

  “As long as these pieces of trash can be placed in a suitable position and used to the best of their abilities, even if their combat ability is only 5, they will still be able to perform miracles.

  “Simply put, the servant soldiers can help the commander compress the terrain on the battlefield and mold the space into a shape that is most suitable for the commander to use totem combat skills.

  “The servant soldiers can also harass the enemy general and create a fleeting opportunity for their own general.

  “When their general has just unleashed a powerful but also consumed an astonishing move and is in urgent need of a precious cooldown time, the well-trained servant soldiers can also charge forward without caring about their own safety and help their general gain a few seconds of breathing space.

  “All in all, excellent servant soldiers can make their commander-in-chief fight more comfortably, more easily, and more efficiently. They can also allow their commander-in-chief to unleash the most powerful attack power and help their commander-in-chief to firmly control the rhythm of the battlefield.

  “This is the true use of servant soldiers!”


  Ice Storm was stunned when she heard this.

  She was even deeply shocked by the powerful confidence revealed in Meng Chao’s words.

  She had never thought that a mouse citizen could release such aggressive self-confidence, and even made her, the ace of the Bloody Skull Arena, subconsciously lower her head.

  Meng Chao had reason to be confident.

  Because what he said just now was the crystallization of wisdom condensed by the pioneers of Dragon City after half a century of fighting, thinking, summarizing, and constantly developing new ideas.

  When some humans awakened their extraordinary power and became the unrivaled “Ultimate human-shaped weapon”extraordinary humans, the argument that “The future war will be the world of extraordinary humans, and the ordinary soldiers will eventually completely withdraw from the stage of history”became very popular.

  However, people soon discovered that no matter how strong the extraordinary humans were, the ordinary soldiers could still find enough places to use them and continue to play a crucial role in the battlefield that would determine the survival of civilization in the next thousand years.

  It was just like when tanks, airplanes, cannons, armed drones, and even nuclear weapons were developed one after another, there was a saying that “Light infantry has fallen behind and will inevitably be eliminated on the battlefield.”.

  There were even many radical and stupid military experts who believed that they could completely conquer a country with only indiscriminate bombing and no need to send ground troops to fight street battles.

  However, until the 22nd century before Dragon City’s transmigration, when the Third World War broke out, the ground troops, especially the light infantrymen, were still one of the most important components of any army equipped with the most advanced high-tech weapons.

  That’s right, in front of the main battle tank equipped with reactive armor and intelligent cannons, the firepower output of the light infantrymen was infinitely close to zero.

  However, through the exquisite coordination tactics of the tanks, the light infantrymen who had been the “Main output”for the past thousands of years could expand the field of vision of the main battle tank, protect the flanks of the main battle tank, and find and knock out the enemy’s anti-tank fighters, they could also control the drones and other means to maximize the offensive output of the main battle tank.

  Superhumans were the main battle tanks of the new era.

  And the ordinary infantrymen of the new era, as long as they could surround superhumans and find a suitable position in the tactical system, they would never go out of style!

  Ice storm was somewhat convinced by Meng Chao.

  However, the pride of being a clan warrior really prevented her from completely accepting the suggestion of a rat.

  When she subconsciously lowered her head just now, it made her even angrier from embarrassment.

  “I’ve never seen a clan’s warrior command a servant like this,” she said coldly.

  “It’s precisely because of this that as long as you command the servant like this, he’ll definitely be able to catch them off guard and receive a miraculous effect, Lady Ice Storm.”


  Meng Chao gradually understood Ice Storm’s temper and continued, “I’ve heard others explain your first three group battles, and I’ve discovered that there aren’t any problems with your own combat ability. It’s not an exaggeration to say that just by relying on your Mithril Ripper, you’re able to tear apart the enemy’s main general and the servant soldiers.

  “However, every time, the adjudicator was disappointed because his servants were either wiped out or collapsed.

  “Imagine if there were still thirty to fifty ‘reserves’of servants behind you during the second half of the battle, which adjudicator would be able to judge you as a loser under the gaze of tens of thousands of spectators

  Chapter 951 - Leading the Female Snow Leopard Warrior By the Nose

  Advanced orcs had many shortcomings.

  However, that did not include refusing to admit defeat.

  A loss was a loss, and a win was a win.

  Although the pride of being an ace made it difficult for the female snow leopard warrior to accept the performance of losing all three group battles…


  Meng Chao’s blunt words did not make her angry.

  She only became more curious. “Do you know how to train these servants to fight using the… tactics that you mentioned?”


  “Of course.”


  Meng Chao smiled faintly.

  If he had to command thousands of soldiers and horses, or engage in such ostentatious operations such as coordinating the various arms of the mechanized army, or integrating the sea, land, and sky into a strike, he indeed knew nothing.

  However, the number of soldiers was around a hundred, and the coordination of the platoon’s battle tactics was something that he had heard his retired father from the Red Dragon Army brag about ever since he was young. It was to the point that he sounded like a broken record.

  In addition to the Ghost Tribe in his previous life, the Abnormal Beast Research Department’s ninth special search team in this life had dozens of special combat team members who formed a combat unit to carry out all kinds of high-difficulty missions.

  If the Ghost Tribe, which specialized in infiltrating alien civilizations, were responsible for assassinating, eavesdropping, stealing, fireproofing, exploding, and causing riots, it would be the sharpest poison blade.

  However, the purpose of its establishment was to dig out the monsters that lurked in human society and prevent internal chaos in Dragon City. The Research Department’s Team Nine was the strongest shield.

  Meng Chao was the one who held a sword in his left hand and a shield in his right.

  Moreover, through Broken Star Club and Battle God Palace, he got to know a large number of basic commanders and young officers from the Red Dragon Army, including Long Feijun, the “Railway Gun.”


  Apart from sparring with each other in martial arts, the only other people who could compete with each other were the special forces’ tactical drill sergeants.

  Even if he had never eaten pork before, Meng Chao had seen plenty of pig trotters.

  Perhaps it was nothing in Dragon City, but at Picturesque Orchid Lake, where their tactics were relatively monotonous and the concept of “tank coordination” was almost zero, Meng Chao was definitely a “tactical master!”


  “Tell me about it?”


  Ice Storm’s interest grew stronger and stronger.

  Usually, if a rat person dared to be so confident in front of a clan warrior, he was either crazy or had some real ability.

  Ice Storm felt that Meng Chao had both.

  “I just told you how I used to train the servant soldiers. In fact, all the gladiators in the Blood Skull Arena, no… One could say that all the warriors in Picturesque Orchid Lake’s clans train their servant soldiers like that. Unless the servant soldiers can prove their strength in a battle of honor, there’s really no need to invest too much resources and energy in the servant soldiers.”


  Ice Storm stared at Meng Chao and said, “But since you are so confident, I can give you a chance. Tell me, how are you going to train these servants in the next five days so that they can become real warriors?”


  “I’m afraid that I won’t be able to turn any of the servants except for Leaf into real warriors in five days.”


  Meng Chao changed the subject and said, “Fortunately, our opponents are not well-trained iron-blood soldiers. At most, some of the servants have fought one or two more group battles than us.

  “Five days is enough to deal with these shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

  “First of all, I suggest that you halve the training time and quantity of the servants, Lady Ice Storm.”


  “What?”


  Ice Storm suspected that something was wrong with his ears. “Halve them, not double them?”


  “That’s right. Halve them.”


  Meng Chao explained, “Sure, the longer the training time is, the better it is. The greater the training quantity, the better it is. However, even the Turan people’s flesh and blood have their limits. If they train crazily without caring about their physical condition, they will quickly run out of energy and burn up their lives before they defeat the enemy.

  “Before we were captured and brought to the Blood Skull Arena, we had gone through a long journey and all kinds of torture. Many of us were tired and hungry. Some of us were wounded. We were like a bowstring that had been stretched to its limit. If we kept applying pressure, our nerves would snap.”


  “Nerves?”


  Ice storm stared at Meng Chao. “It’s surprising to hear such words from a rat.”


  Meng Chao shrugged.

  He did not mind it. He even intentionally revealed part of his mysterious identity so that Ice Storm would not treat him like an ordinary rat.

  Of course, the Turan civilization, which was still in the tribal era, also had the term “nerves.” They even had a deep understanding of the human body’s neural network and cell structure. That was also something beyond Meng Chao’s expectations.

  However, that was not the main point at the moment, and Meng Chao continued to say, “Believe me, Lady Ice Storm. Squeezing the servants for their maximum strength will only shatter their emotions and will, turning them into mindless killing machines. They might even regard death as the greatest relief.

  “Yes. Perhaps, on the battlefield, such killing machines will pounce on death without any hesitation.

  “But it’s useless to not be afraid of death. Death is not victory. It’s only victory if you live to the end, isn’t it?”


  Ice Storm’s gaze quickly swept over the wounds on her crooked soldiers.

  She nodded thoughtfully. “Continue.”


  “Secondly, I think that we should focus on specialized training in speed and agility. After all, Lady Ice Storm, you won the title of ‘ace’ by relying on your speed and agility. If your soldiers can’t keep up with your rhythm, then not only will they be unable to coordinate with your attacks, they will be a huge burden.”


  Meng Chao said, “This is the reason why I chose the servant soldiers, who are relatively small in size. I didn’t choose those muscular men, including that guy who has the bloodline of the Barbarian Elephant Clan, who looks like a wall.”


  Ice Storm recalled her previous group battles.

  In the previous few battles, she had chosen quite a number of muscular men.

  However, it was just as Meng Chao had said.

  Whenever the two clan warriors activated their totem armors…


  No matter if they were strong or weak, the rat militia would not be able to withstand a single blow from the totem warriors.

  If the strong ones ran slowly, they would most likely become a burden to the main general.

  On the contrary, the smart ones with small and agile bodies would usually be able to live a little longer!

  “Anything else?” Ice Storm continued to ask.

  “Also, the training time and amount can be halved, but I hope that you can spend more time training with your servants, Lady Ice Storm. Also, during training, you must activate your totem armor and release your strongest killing intent.”


  Meng Chao seriously said, “This is to train your servants’ adaptability and resilience. According to my observation, when two totem warriors are engaged in an intense battle, they may not have the leisure to deal with the other’s servants, but the servants will still easily collapse. This is the reason why they cannot withstand the totem warriors’ powerful aura.

  “If you can summon totem armors every day and let the servant soldiers train with an extremely cold murderous aura, the servant soldiers will slowly get used to it, Lady Ice Storm. When they reach the arena or the real battlefield, it will not be easy for them to panic and collapse completely.”


  This suggestion contained Meng Chao’s selfish intention.

  If Ice Storm accepted his suggestion, he would have the opportunity to carefully study the so-called “totem armors” and what was going on.

  But the suggestion itself was not a problem.

  Even the Red Dragon Army had training methods that allowed recruits to lie on their backs and watch as heavy tanks and engineering vehicles drove toward them. They were two tracks covered in the flesh and bones of monsters that rolled over their bodies.

  Besides actual combat, this was the best way to let a recruit mature as soon as possible.

  Ice Storm nodded.

  Once again, Meng Chao’s words made sense.

  In fact, similar training methods were not difficult to understand.

  It was just that no clan warrior was willing to waste so much energy on a mere rat people.

  After all, there were as many cannon fodder as needed. They could barely form a battle formation. Under the pressure of the clan warriors, they would rush towards the enemy like a swarm of bees. That was enough.

  If even the servants could be trained into elites, what was the point of having professional warriors?

  However, Ice Storm had other thoughts.

  Casanova Bloodhoof’s aggressive gaze appeared in her heart again.

  The five clans were about to begin their battle.

  Looking at the entire Orchid Lake, the Gold Clan that ranked first in the war, and the Blood Hoof Clan that ranked second, were bound to have a world-shaking collision for the throne of War Chief.

  If he, who had betrayed the Gold Clan, did not carry out the Blood Bestowing Ceremony and officially joined the Blood Hoof Clan, nobody would believe him, let alone give him enough soldiers, resources, and freedom.

  However, he had an unspeakable reason to not carry out the Blood Bestowing Ceremony.

  “Casanova is already suspicious of me.”


  Ice storm said to herself, “Before we completely fall out, the more soldiers I can control, the better, and the stronger, the better!”


  Although every time she summoned the totem armor, the consumption of mandrake fruits and totem beast flesh would double…


  Maintaining the totem armor for a long time would consume an astronomical amount of resources.

  But Ice Storm still decided to agree with Meng Chao’s suggestion.

  This was another thing that made her feel very… angry but powerless.

  She always felt that she, as the ace of the Blood Skull Arena, seemed to have been led by the nose by this black-haired and black-eyed rodent!

  Even though this guy who called himself the Reaper was most likely not a proper rodent…


  She was still very unhappy.

  “Anything else?”


  She could not help but agree with Meng Chao’s suggestion, but she frowned even more. The female snow leopard warrior said coldly, “By doing the above three things, you can guarantee my victory.

  “Also, I will personally help the 29 servants, including leaf, adjust their strength, massage their tendons, unclog their bloodlines, and teach them a few moves that can be quickly mastered. The most basic but most refined killing techniques.”


  “Of course,” Meng Chao said casually. “However, the effect depends on the quantity and quality of the food and the secret medicines.

  “Not only the food and the secret medicines for the servant soldiers, but also my portion. How much and how good is it.

  “After all, I haven’t recovered from my serious injury yet, and I can’t exert my full strength. Adjusting my strength, massaging my tendons, unclogging my bloodlines, and teaching the techniques will consume a lot of energy. What do you think, Lady Ice Storm?”
