Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 1076
Chapter 1076: The Small Players’ Strategy
“If they are just rat subjects who have reached the end of their patience and are rising up because of the freedom and dignity of all rat people, I will not touch a single hair on their head. Instead, I will be willing to lend them a hand.”
“However, if the guy hiding behind the Rat God is not fundamentally different from the Blood Hoof warriors, he is just using the rat subjects and the blood of millions of rat people to irrigate his path of rise and victory…” Meng Chao sneered.
“What reason do we have to show these guys mercy?”
Ice Storm did not comment. She contemplated for a moment and asked, “Casanova and the other experts in the Blood Hoof Clan will return to Black-corner City at any time. If we continue to stay here, will we cause more trouble and end up being entangled by them instead?”
“It is precisely because the experts of the Blood Hoof Clan will return at any time that we can not leave at this moment. We must stay and disrupt the rhythm of the mastermind behind the chaos,” Meng Chao said.
Ice Storm was puzzled. “Why? No matter who the mastermind behind the ‘descent of the Rat God’ is, his target isn’t us. He doesn’t even know of our existence. Why do we have to take the initiative to provoke such a madman who dares to attack all the temples in Black-corner City?”
Ice Storm did not know how great a disaster the ‘madman’ she spoke of would bring to Picturesque Orchid Lake, Dragon City, and even the entire Other World in the future.
It was also very difficult for Meng Chao to explain the doomsday in a few words and convince Ice Storm.
He could only explain it in another way.
“There are currently four ‘players’ participating in the game around Black-corner City.”
Meng Chao said to Ice Storm, “The first is us, the second is the warriors, priests, and chiefs of the Blood Hoof Clan such as Casanova, the third is the rat people who rose up in revolt, and the fourth is the guy who planned the descent of the Big-horned Rat God.
“Among them, two or four players are mixed together. It is difficult to distinguish them. As a result, we subconsciously think that their positions and interests are the same.
“However, if we think about it carefully, we know that to player number four, player number three is just a chess piece that can be sacrificed at any time. He is not even a real player. He is just a ‘card’ in his hand.
“Not to mention anything else, just the tremendous explosion alone almost swept the entire Black-corner City with flames, shock waves, and whistles. No matter how hard they tried to avoid the area where the rats lived, countless rats must have been buried in the Raging Sea of flames and the collapsed ruins.
“If the guys who call themselves ‘envoys of the Rat Race’ really care about the freedom, dignity, and lives of the rats, they would never set off the so-called craze in such a simple and brutal way.
“The rat people are just a cover to cover their tracks and a cannon fodder to delay the Blood Hoof warriors.
“Then, please think about it. If we do nothing and let the envoys of the Rat god Rob most of the temples in Black-corner City according to their plan, and then leave Black-corner City through the underground passage without anyone noticing, do you think that they will still care about the rat people who are still in chaos in Black-corner City?”
Ice Storm thought for a moment, he somewhat understood what Meng Chao meant. “Of course not. Since the true purpose of the ’emissary of the Rat God’ is not to save the rat people in Black-corner City, they will certainly run as fast as they can after the plan succeeds. They will run as far as they can. Why would they bring half of the rat people with them?”
“I think so, too.”
Meng Chao said, “Perhaps, during the implementation of the plan, they will maintain the unimpeded underground escape routes and send the elite rat subjects to organize and direct the rat subjects who are resisting to attract the Blood Hoof warriors’ attention and fury.
“At this moment, if any rat subjects escape, they probably won’t refuse. After all, who would refuse the cannon fodder who brought their own food and weapons with them?
“However, from the moment their robbery was successful, the rat subjects who were still in Black-corner City had lost their value and were not worth saving anymore.
“The oracles of the rat race would certainly abandon the rat subjects and run away without looking back.
“If the rat subjects who had participated in the Resistance had a chance of survival because of the lack of cannon fodder on the frontline, they would have been killed.
“After they discovered that all the temples had been robbed, the rat slaves who stayed in Black-corner City did not even have a slim chance of survival in the face of the fury of the Blood Hoof Warriors.
“It was already the best outcome for them to be cut into thousands of pieces.
“For the two of us, such an outcome was not very beneficial.
“Compared to the Blood Hoof Clan or the guy hiding behind the big horn rat god, the two of us are alone after all. Even if we have two sets of relatively strong totem armors, it is impossible for us to kill our way in and out of a clan.
“Only by allowing these rich and powerful big players to maintain a high-intensity confrontation and collide with each other until their heads are bleeding and sparks are flying everywhere, can we insignificant small players wait until they are impatient and reveal their flaws so that we can stake everything!
“Also, I want to correct you on one point. It’s not that the other party doesn’t know of our existence. Or rather, even if they didn’t know in the past, they already know now.”
As Meng Chao spoke, he pointed at Blood Skull Temple in front of them.
After pondering for a moment, Ice Storm suddenly came to a realization.
That’s right. The Blood Skull Temple in front of them had already been taken over by her and Meng Chao.
There were still traces of the fierce battle between them and the Origin Warrior, 249.
Since the emissaries of the Rat God were all experts, it was not difficult for them to find out what had happened under Blood Skull Temple through the clues.
It was impossible to speculate about the lunatics who dared to attack the entire Black-corner City with common sense.
Even if Meng Chao and Ice Storm wanted to stay out of the trouble, once the lunatics locked onto their identities, there was no guarantee that they would not harbor deep malice toward them.
Passive defense had never been the style of the Turan people, much less Ice Storm.
She was only conflicted about the last point. “But we still have to go to crimson gold city to find my father.”
“Don’t you understand?”
Meng Chao said, “Think about it carefully. Which clan do you think the guy who planned the descent of the Rat God came from?
“The Dark Moon, the Lightning, and the Divine Wood Clan?
“Impossible. Putting aside the fact that the three clans are much weaker than the Gold Clan and the Blood Hoof Clan, they do not have the ability to overthrow the entire Black-corner City.
“Even if they really put in a lot of effort and accumulated tremendous power in the past fifty years of prosperity, how can they throw all this power at the Blood Hoof Clan at the beginning of the Battle of Honor?
“After all, the Blood Hoof Clan is only ranked second among the five great clans. If the Blood Hoof Clan is severely weakened, apart from making the Gold Clan even more dominant and no one else being able to balance the strength of those wolves, tigers, leopards, and golden lions, what benefits will there be for the other three clans?
“As the third, fourth, and fifth sons, if they want to protect their own interests, they can only adopt the attitude of ‘helping the weak’ in the competition between the eldest and the second sons. This is also the reason why the Blood Hoof Clan has been teaming up with the other three great clans to issue a challenge to the Gold Clan for the past thousand years.
“I don’t think that the chiefs of the three great clans would be so muddle-headed that they would kill a thousand of their allies and lose eight hundred of their own.
“Therefore, the rumor that the Blood Hoof Clan released a few days ago said that the emissary of the Big-horned Rat God is a spy of the Gold clan is very likely to hit the bull’s-eye.
“I’m guessing, no, I’m certain that this grand trick of ‘the arrival of the big horned rat god and the rise of the sixth clan’ definitely has something to do with the Gold Clan. At the very least, it has something to do with some ambitious people within the Gold Clan…”
Ice Storm was stunned when she heard this.
She, who didn’t know that Meng Chao had seen the correct answer long ago, was truly shocked by Meng Chao’s astonishing imagination and ability to explain himself.
“Of course, we have to go to Crimson Gold City to look for your father. The problem is, even if we successfully find him, then what?” Meng Chao asked
“What?” Meng Chao asked. “Are you able to convince him to willingly take out something that was related to a secret that you took away from your mother twenty to thirty years ago?
“What if this thing is of great value to him, and even to ‘Jackal’ Kanus, whom he is currently working for?”
Ice Storm opened her mouth, but she was rendered speechless.
What should she do after she found her father?
This was a question that she rarely thought about and did not want to think about.
“If you want to sit at the card table, you’d better make sure that you have enough cards and chips in your pocket.”
Meng Chao said, “The ancient weapons, totem armors, and high-level secret medicines in the temples of Black-corner City, as well as the secrets behind the descent of the Rat God, are our ‘cards’ and ‘chips’. Do you agree?”
Ice Storm pondered for a long time.
She nodded solemnly. “I agree.”
Then, a sharp light shone from her eyes.
“Then, where should we go to find these emissaries of the Rat God? After we find them, should we kill them?”
The cheetah female warrior, who carried the Holy Light and totem on her back, immediately revealed her cold side once she made up her mind.
“Of course, we’ll go to the largest and oldest temple in Black-corner City, which has the most ancient weapons, armors, and secret medicines.”
“As for killing them, there’s no need to be so cruel, right? All we need to do is to launch a sneak attack, wreak havoc, and slow them down,” Meng Chao said.
“Only by keeping these guys in Black-corner City can we ensure that the secret escape routes from the underground of Black-corner City to the outside of the city are unimpeded. Only then can these guys ‘willingly’ attract the fury and firepower of the Blood Hoof warriors and help more rat slaves escape!”
