Moreover, it was not just the wild rat soldiers who originally belonged to Ice Storm. Even the loyal domestic rat soldiers who had been following Brute Hammer all this time were vomiting and having diarrhea. They collapsed on the ground, unable to move like dehydrated earthworms.
Brute Hammer could only pinch his nose and let the witch doctor help his servant soldiers recover their combat strength as soon as possible.
At least they would have the ability to stand up on their own and crawl out of the city.
Before the rat militia soldiers recovered, Brute Hammer could only stay in the Blood Skull Arena and fly into a rage. He did not know who to vent his anger on.
However, to the rat militia soldiers, postponing the departure for one or two days would not change their fate of eventually being thrown into the meat grinder.
Leaf held his belly that looked like an erupting volcano and curled up like a struggling shrimp. Through a narrow window, he looked at the changing sky in a daze and felt that it was going to be the end for him.
“Liar. Everything has been a lie!”
The rat youth bit his lip and contemplated in sorrow. ‘The Rat God’s arrival is a lie, and the glory of the Blood Hoof ancestral spirit is also a lie. Even the Reaper is a big liar. He said that he had a way to escape, but now, everyone has been poisoned. They are all soft and weak like mud. They can’t even climb out of the Blood Skull Arena. How can they escape Black-corner City?’
“Don’t look at me with such resentful eyes as if I told you a big lie.”
Beside him, Meng Chao supported himself against the wall and stood on tiptoes. He looked out the window and curiously asked, “I saw a huge pillar of light rising from the Blood Hoof temple outside Black-corner City. There were many octagonal cuneiform characters shining inside the pillar of light. What the hell was that?”
“That was probably all the high priests of the Blood Hoof Clan gathering together and praying to their common first ancestor. They’re asking the first ancestor to update their totem battle armor,” Leaf said weakly.
“Update?” Meng Chao raised his eyebrows.
“Yeah, I don’t know what the term means either. I heard it from a veteran servant who had served in the Blood Skull Arena for more than ten years. Only the high priests understand it. The ancient Turan language is probably one of the ancestral spirits’ godly powers, right? “Through the update, many powerful skills can be implanted into the newly born totem armor. Therefore, it is a ritual that must be carried out every time an oath master steps into the glorious era.”
Leaf grimaced in pain and held his stomach, “Reaper, why are you still concerned about matters of the Blood Hoof temple at this time? Everyone’s stomach is hurting to death. I feel like my intestines are about to be twisted off. Why do you seem to be fine?”
“I’m probably fine because I didn’t have a good appetite last night.”
“Who asked all of you to eat so much like hungry tigers pouncing on a sheep?” Meng Chao said irresponsibly.
“What?”
Leaf widened his eyes and said, “Weren’t you the one who made us wolf down three times the amount of food? And what part of your appetite wasn’t good? You clearly ate enough for the ten of us!”
“Don’t worry about the details.”
Meng Chao grinned and said, “It doesn’t matter if our stomachs hurt for a while. At least we don’t have to go to the Blood Hoof temple to gather and enter the battlefield to die!”
“How is that possible?”
Leaf sighed and said, “Do you think that the warriors of the Blood Hoof Clan will let us go and leave us to recuperate in Black-corner City just because of these mild symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea? The Blood Hoof Clan will not keep a bunch of useless idlers for a long time. Don’t you see that Brute Hammer’s eyes are about to spit fire?”
“When we get better, he will definitely drag us into the battlefield and send us to our deaths.
“If we really can’t fight and can only wait for our fate, we will be the most pathetic slave labors, just like the rat people who are staying back in Black-corner City!”
“That’s true. Then, it’s time to recover our strength.”
Meng Chao’s smile gradually disappeared, and his expression became serious. “Leaf, from now on, breathe with the rib breathing technique that I taught you. Ten times in a set. Hold your breath slightly between each set. At the same time, rub your stomach clockwise… Uh, in the direction of your right hand.
“Also, tell Spider and the others about this method in a low voice so that everyone can move quietly!”
Leaf was slightly startled.
Then, his eyes widened.
The rat teenager seemed to guess something from Meng Chao’s baffling instructions. He took a deep breath and cried out, “Reaper, could it be that you poisoned—”
“Shh. Just do as I say. Remember, even if everyone gradually recovers, don’t be in a hurry to show that you’re still alive. Take a good look at the rat soldiers who have been following Brute Hammer and try to act as weak as they are, understand?”
Meng Chao stared into Leaf’s eyes and spoke very seriously, stressing each word.
“Understood!”
Leaf nodded solemnly.
Then, using the method that Meng Chao had taught him, he looked at Brute Hammer’s soldiers around him out of the corner of his eye.
Fortunately, these soldiers did not like hanging out with the wild rats who had just entered the city.
Moreover, the domestic rat soldiers were also vomiting and having diarrhea. They were dizzy. Right then, there were three or four shadows everywhere they looked. They could only close their eyes and lie on the ground, gnashing their teeth. They did not have the time to monitor the wild rat soldiers at all.
Leaf silently squirmed toward his companions.
He quietly told Spider about Meng Chao’s order.
The experienced private hunter looked at Leaf in surprise and then looked at Meng Chao in surprise from afar.
However, he immediately retracted his gaze and moved closer to his closest companion, whispering his orders.
Not long after, all the rat soldiers, whom Meng Chao had personally selected from the depths of the dungeon, followed his instructions. They breathed in a special way and rubbed their bellies clockwise.
An unbelievable thing happened!
Leaf originally felt that his entire body was in bad shape, like an empty pocket. Without three to five days of effort, he could forget about bulging it up again.
However, according to the method taught by Meng Chao, after breathing and massaging, the intense pain of food poisoning and the weakness of vomiting and diarrhea were like the sea water at the ebb of the tide. They disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Then, from his chest and abdomen, a hot and energetic energy surged out. It made his limbs, bones, and every nerve and muscle fiber feel as comfortable as if they were soaking in a hot spring.
Soon, all the symptoms of acute food poisoning disappeared.
Leaf tried to clench his fists secretly, listening to the cracking sounds of his fingers.
He felt that the diarrhea and dizziness from a moment ago had vanished like a nightmare.
His fists seemed to be more powerful than before.
It was like the secret medicine that was mixed with the strong liquor and sour cream last night. Besides the poison, it was also a drug that could boost one’s fighting strength!
“This is…”
Leaf was both surprised and happy. He looked at Meng Chao in disbelief.
He could not help but approach him. He tried hard to suppress his excitement and stammered. “R-Reaper, did you really do this? I understand now. You deliberately poisoned all the people who were left in the Blood Skull Arena, but you have the method to detoxify them.
“Therefore, we all regained our vitality, but the house rat soldiers loyal to the warriors of the clan were still weak and feeble. Naturally, they couldn’t stop us from escaping. That must be the case, right?”
“Of course not.”
Meng Chao shook his head and said, “Even if we turned all the people who were left in the bloody skull coliseum into weaklings, what’s the point? When we escape from the arena, we will face the enemies of the entire Black-corner City?
“Besides, Brute Hammer won’t eat the same food as the rat militia. He is not poisoned. He alone is enough to keep all of you.”
“That’s right!”
The fire of hope that the rat youth had just ignited was extinguished by a ladle of cold water.
He scratched his head for a long time, but he still could not figure out where to hide his escape route. He could only stare at Meng Chao with his bright eyes again and ask, “Reaper, what should we do next?”
“Next…”
Meng Chao narrowed his eyes and looked at the huge fireball that was gradually rising to the center of the sky and emitting an incomparably dazzling red light. He repeatedly calculated the time in his mind and muttered, “We can only pray.”
“Huh?”
Leaf didn’t understand what he meant for a moment.
“Pray to the Big-horned Rat God!”
Meng Chao sat down, leaned against the wall, and closed his eyes.
“Pray?”
Leaf stammered. “Reaper, d-didn’t you say that you don’t believe in the Rat God?”
“I never said that I don’t believe in the Rat God. I just said that we shouldn’t place all our hopes on the Rat God.”
Meng Chao said, “Since we can’t escape with our own strength, and we don’t have anything else to do, there’s no harm in praying.”.
“Didn’t you say last time that I was the Big-horned Rat God’s emissary?”
“I, I was just guessing.”
Leaf said, “The so-called emissary of the Big-horned Rat God has been discovered by the Blood Hoof Clan and the Ironhide Clan. It’s not real at all. He’s a spy from the Gold clan!”
“That might not be true.”
A mysterious smile appeared on Meng Chao’s face. He winked at the rat youth. “Believe me, perhaps the ‘miracle’ of the Big-horned Rat God will come today?”
Leaf was somewhat convinced by Meng Chao.
He didn’t know if he should believe in the big horn rat god again.
But he knew that the reaper would never shoot off a target.
Although the Reaper’s instructions or techniques sometimes looked very baffling.
But as long as he wholeheartedly believed in the reaper, he would definitely be shocked by the result in the end.
Leaf sat down and began to pray.
But for some reason, he was distracted and couldn’t pray to the Rat God as he used to.
He tried over a dozen times, but he couldn’t put his broken faith together.
He opened one eye and found that the reaper was half asleep and didn’t notice him.
Leaf secretly changed his target.
For the first time, he prayed sincerely to his mother and brother.
