The Ancient Dream Saintess frowned and gritted her teeth.

It was obvious that Meng Chao’s belittlement of the Great Horn Army’s combat strength made her subconsciously furious.

Meng Chao could clearly sense that the atmosphere was once again tense.

Even in the dream, the Ancient Dream Saintess had already reached her limit in regards to his “nonsense.”

However, in order to help the Ancient Dream Saintess break free from the Rat God’s control as soon as possible, the Ancient Dream Saintess was still unwilling to give up. “The Great Horn Army was formed by a motley crew that had just risen up not long ago. Even though elites like the ‘White Bone Battalion’were mixed in and had secretly received several years of training in the underground base, there was still a huge gap between them and the clan warriors who had received sufficient food and secret medicines since they were young and had begun to train their combat techniques almost in their mother’s womb.

“I’m not saying this to boost the morale of others. I’m just stating the most basic facts.

“In fact, I believe that when the Great Horn Army is fighting against an elite Legion made up of professional warriors, as long as they can achieve a ten-to-one battle loss ratio and rely on the tactics of the Sea of people to fight the enemy equally, it will be enough to prove the bravery and glory of the rat people.

“However, in the recent battles, the heavy troops of the Wolf Clan had all been defeated by the Great Horn Army.

“Saintess ancient dream, don’t you think that the victory was too easy and even a little weird?

“If the Wolf Clan, which was ranked third in the overall strength of the Gold clan, were all defeated at the first touch, the rats should have broken free of all the shackles and beaten the wolves, tigers, leopards, boars, and bulls who were riding on their heads to the point that their parents did not recognize them, right?

“I heard from the soldiers of the Great Horn Army that you received the enlightenment of the Great Horn Rat God in your dream. You were able to accurately determine the enemy’s situation and see through their traps. You even knew the enemy’s marching route and the location of the command center in advance. Every time, you would use the ‘decapitation tactic’to break through the enemy’s core first before the Wolf clan’s heavy troops collapsed.

“Of course, this is a very reasonable explanation.

“However, the Wolf clan’s heavy armed groups are so powerful on paper. Even if you have grasped their real situation and movements, it shouldn’t be that easy to defeat them, right?

“Especially those Wolf clan leaders whose combat ability is already astonishing and who are protected by the totem armors passed down from thousands of years ago. I think that even if they are caught unprepared by the falling mouse warriors and are unable to organize an effective counterattack, it is still not difficult to break out of the encirclement and save their own lives under the protection of the totem armors.

“But why is the decapitation tactic of the Great Horn Army working again and again, as if the unruly leaders of the Wolf clan are all stretching their necks foolishly, waiting for you to kill them?

“Saintess ancient dream, you are a witness to these battles, and even the executioner of the decapitation tactic. Even if you were blinded by the revelation and blessing of the Great Horn Rat God at that time and didn’t have the time to care about the peculiarities on the battlefield, don’t you find it strange when you calm down and think about it?”

Saintess ancient dream was speechless.

This was indeed an extremely strange thing.

Even if she felt that she had received the teachings of the Big Horn Rat God in her dream, and she had grasped the absolute martial strength that allowed her to rely on her own strength to contend against an entire battle group.

But she didn’t dare say that her combat strength could surpass those vicious wolves, tigers, and leopards.

She thought about the whole process of the Great Horn Army defeating the heavy troops of the Wolf clan.

Indeed, it was unbelievably smooth.

As for the leaders of the Wolf clan, their combat ability was too weak.

It was like..

Before they were ‘beheaded’by the ancient Dream Saintess and the white bone battalion, they had already been severely injured and were in the midst of some serious sequelae and negative effects.

What was even stranger was why she had always taken such a strange thing for granted until Meng Chao pointed it out. Only then did she feel that the entire battle had been won too easily, so easily that it was a little strange?

“You’re saying that ‘Jackal’Kanus is secretly helping the great horn army and weakening the strength of the entire Wolf clan. Why?”

The ancient Dream Saintess’voice became extremely hoarse. “He’s the Wolf King. What benefits does it have for him to let the heavy troops of the Wolf clan suffer a crushing defeat at the hands of the Great Horn Army?”

“There are too many benefits.”

With months of calculations and doubts pouring out like a flood that had burst a dam, Meng Chao’s mind became clearer and clearer.

It was like a jigsaw puzzle that was 90% complete. All he needed to do was put the final pieces into the remaining space.

“First, as I said earlier, ‘Jackal’kanus can use the sharp blade of the great horn army to play a beautiful ‘borrowed knife to kill’and cut off the deep-rooted, unruly, and unruly leaders of the Wolf clan who are not willing to listen to his orders.

“Even if the decapitation tactic of the Great Horn Legion fails to destroy the bodies of the leaders of the Wolf clan, it will completely destroy their prestige. They will no longer dare to take advantage of their seniority in front of ‘Jackal’Kanus and act on their own.

“Right now, the leaders of the Wolf clan who have more prestige and strength are almost all dead, wounded, and defeated. The entire Wolf clan is panicking, and their morale is extremely low.

“If ‘Jackal’Kanus can seize the opportunity to turn the tide and break the Great Horn Legion in one go, he will be able to turn from a disgraceful puppet into a worthy wolf king in an instant!

“Secondly, the defeat of the Wolf Clan’s heavy army group has greatly boosted the morale of the Great Horn Legion and all the rats. It is equivalent to raising the scope and intensity of the Great Horn Rebellion.

“Many of the rat population scattered all over Tulanze were hesitating whether or not to respond to the great horn army’s righteous actions.

“Right now, stimulated by your unbelievable victory, they are all stirring up trouble in different places and shaking the Old Order of the five major clans that ruled Tulanze.

“It should be known that in the game of power, ‘Jackal’Kanus is not the player with the most cards and the most beautiful cards on the table, nor is he the player with the most chips who is qualified to fight and lose again and again. In the face of the big players such as the Lion Man, the Tiger Man, the Tauren, and the Wild Boar Man, ‘Jackal’Kanus wants to win the game with a small victory. Naturally, he has to do everything he can to completely mess up the game of cards so that he can take advantage of the chaos and win!

“Thirdly, I believe that the reason why the lion and tiger clans did not attack the great horn army in person and instead sent the Wolf clan to deal with the Great Horn Army is that they are planning to destroy both the Wolf clan and the Great Horn Army.

“After all, the prosperous era that just passed has been too long. After fifty years of rest and recuperation, the number of the Rat clan and the Wolf Clan has swelled to the point that they are likely to break free from the control of the lion and tiger clans and become an unstable factor.

“Let the Wolf tribe and the rat tribe kill and kill. Blood will flow like a river, and heads will roll. Whether or not the Wolf tribe can successfully complete the mission to destroy the great horn army, the strength of both sides will be greatly weakened. At that time, the Lion tribe and the Tiger Tribe, who came out unhurriedly to clean up the mess, will naturally be the ultimate winner.

“The ‘Jackal’kanus should be the executor of this strategy.

“No matter how much anger and Fury he has in his heart, at the very least, as a puppet on the surface, he must be loyal and even exceed his mission.

“Only by greatly weakening the Wolf clan can his nominal master, the ultimate masters of the Lion and tiger clans, be at ease.

“And only the ultimate masters of the Lion and tiger clans can be completely at ease. They think that the Wolf clan is a useless piece of trash who is weak in battle and can be killed and maimed by the rat people. It’s impossible for them to compete with them for the supreme power of the golden clan or even the Tulanze clan.

“Only then would they shift their attention and vigilance from the Wolf clan to each other.

“At that time, the irreconcilable conflict between the lion and tiger clans will erupt after three thousand years!”

Meng Chao’s eloquence made the ancient dream saintess lose her usual calmness and piety.

As a rat, although she was not like many high-level orcs who valued martial arts above all else, she rarely used her most precious brain.

It was rare for her to think in such a complicated and illogical way.

However, when she really followed Meng Chao’s train of thought, she continued to explore.

To her surprise, she discovered that the nonsense that the mysterious man who had sneaked into her dream without anyone noticing could really explain everything.

“But –”

The ancient Dream Saintess was completely immersed in Meng Chao’s logical thinking, racking her brains to find a flaw in it, “Regardless of whether it’s a conspiracy or not, the Wolf Clan has been crippled by the great horn army. Even if ‘Jackal’kanus can truly become the wolf king in name, leading the Wolf clan that has lost troops and fallen morale, what can he do?”
