Everything that happened next was so logical.
When they finally came to the open space in the forest, the rat soldiers, who were deeply attracted to the mandrake fruit, had lost all their strength and courage.
Forget fighting to the death with the wolf cavalry, who were armed to the teeth, they could not even muster the will to kill themselves with their knives.
They were like loose marionettes, controlled by the strings formed from the condensation of the fragrance. They were muddle-headed and could not help but rush toward the steaming cauldron.
When they wolfed down their food, they fought with each other. Like a vicious dog pouncing on its food, they swept away all the cauldrons that were lined up in a row. They held their bellies and let out hot belches.
Was there a second option other than surrender?
After all, many of them had surrendered once.
It was needless to say whether or not they had no choice but to surrender the last time. They had even deliberately deceived the stupid wolf king.
Surrender was like a lie. There was only a difference between zero and ten thousand times.
Once they fell into the Abyss and were covered in mud, they would never be able to wash themselves clean.
In addition, many mouse warriors, who were originally house rats raised by ‘Jackal’kanus, were also making noise in the crowd, they were saying something like, “Even the Rat God has abandoned us. We are already worthy of ourselves and everyone for being able to persevere to this point.”.
In the end, the wolf cavalry captured more than ten times the number of surrendered soldiers without any effort or even a drop of blood.
When the surrendered soldiers received the news that “Lord Kanus was magnanimous and did not blame the ordinary rat people for their crimes and even prepared a large amount of food to save our lives,” The news was relayed back to the chaotic position of the Great Horn Legion.
The organized and large-scale surrender was unstoppable like a snowball that grew bigger and bigger in an avalanche.
On multiple fronts, the wolf cavalry soldiers did not even need to appear. They only shot a wolf claw flag that represented ‘Jackal’kanus from afar with their powerful bows and crossbows.
It was enough to make hundreds and thousands of rat warriors, who had been through hundreds of battles and were covered in scars, put down their weapons. In a real battle, it was enough to drag countless wolf warriors into hell.
The only casualties of the rat warriors after surrendering were usually when the wolf cavalry distributed food. Either they were fighting for food, and the Rat Warriors fought until their heads were bleeding, or they were too impatient, they swallowed too much food in one go, and their bellies burst open.
Such an ugly scene made many of the rat soldiers who were still holding on completely despair. They let go of their weapons and closed their eyes, allowing their unpredictable fate to push them to a faraway place where they would never be able to recover.
Of course, the Great Horn Army had millions of soldiers, and even if one-tenth or even one-hundredth of them were strong-willed, they were unwilling to abandon the road that was built with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, all of them added up to a very considerable number.
Many of the frontline combat troops that attacked hundred blade city had gathered most of the army rations and war equipment reserves of the Great Horn Army. They were not forced into a desperate situation.
If the ancient Dream Saintess could give them a clear and clear order.
No matter what the order was.
Even if they broke out of the encirclement and marched toward Red Gold City, they would go in front of the strongest lion and tiger warriors of Turanze and display the final glory of the rat people warriors.
They would be elated and happy, without any hesitation.
The problem was that from midnight onwards, these first-line troops that were still loyal to the ancient Dream Saintess and maintained their last bit of military discipline and combat strength did not receive any orders from the ancient Dream Saintess.
Regardless of whether the messenger ran to the death of one wolf after another, or whether it was an urgent letter of military orders sent by 100,000 people.
The commander and the oracles received the revelation from the ancient Dream Saintess from the dream while they were in a trance.
There was nothing.
Every time the commander and the oracles placed a white jade statue of the Rat God and sat cross-legged in front of the statue, staring into the statue’s eyes, they would enter a deep meditation state, when they tried to communicate with the ancient Dream Saintess in the dream.
Or, they would fall into the whirlpool of their thoughts in a trance and be drowned by the waves of brainwaves. The temperature of their brains would rise rapidly and they would be on the verge of spontaneous combustion. They might even really burn their brains.
Or, they would see the rotting and deformed zombie rat god that looked like a giant in the dream. It would constantly release desperate emotions to them.
Under the influence of these emotions, they either lost the ability to control their totem armors and became origin warriors.
Or, they lost their last bit of fighting spirit and led their troops to the edge of the battlefield like zombies, to surrender to ‘Jackal’kanus.
The relatively smart commanders and military priests no longer dared to contact the ancient Dream Saintess rashly.
However, if they wanted to break out of the encirclement and continue the struggle of millions of rats, where would they go?
At the critical moment when the army was without a leader and was falling apart.
Meng Chao bypassed two surrendered barracks that had already surrendered and replaced them with Wolf Claw battle flags.
He also passed three groups of wolf cavalry with valiant expressions. They shuttled back and forth between the surrendered barracks, searching for the unyielding and resisting Wolf Cavalry.
They arrived at the outer region controlled by the Great Horn Legion, an unremarkable mountain col.
This place was quite a distance away from hundred blade city, Red Gold City, and the main roads of the Gold clan. It was not a strategic location for the army to attack.
There were countless crevices and caves hidden in the mountain Col. at first glance, they looked the same, and no one knew which crevice was the one behind it. Furthermore, the caves and caves were interconnected, and there were many hidden rivers in the depths of the caves, they led directly to the surrounding mountains and rivers.
If one wanted to search all the caves.
A hundred thousand soldiers might not be enough even if they spent a year and a half.
Meng Chao had never been to this area.
Of course, he had never gone deep into any caves.
However, he was in the depths of the caves that were zigzagging and branching. He was familiar with the path and advanced quickly.
It was not only because there was a faint scent of tracking drugs floating in the air.
It was also because he “Saw”the footprints.
The footprints left by the ice storm.
Every three to five meters, the ice storm deliberately left a footprint on the ground that was three to five degrees lower than the surrounding temperature.
It was impossible to observe it with the naked eye.
Only people who were very familiar with the ice storm and had awakened their extraordinary vision and could sense the subtle difference in temperature on the surface of objects could “See”the faint blue “Road signs”.
Until the third fork in the road.
Meng Chao suddenly stopped.
He spread his arms and hugged the back of his head. First, he slowly turned three times clockwise, then one and a half times counterclockwise.
This was the joint action that he had agreed to with the ice storm.
If someone else had come here pretending to be him, it would have been impossible for them to do such a thing.
He felt two icicle-like eyes scanning up and down every pore of his body.
It was the gaze of the ice storm.
He believed that the ice storm was already well prepared in the depths of the cave.
If it wasn’t him, what would greet him would be a barrage of icicles.
The sound of “Kacha Kacha”came from the depths of the cave.
It was as if the ice storm had removed the intersecting icicles.
Meng Chao let out a slight sigh of relief and then stepped into the depths of the cave.
This cave seemed to have been nourished by the underground spiritual vein.
The rocks emitted a sparkling and translucent, magnificent luster.
It was as if clusters of deep blue ice flowers had grown out of the ground.
The ice storm sat cross-legged in front of a huge ice flower.
And in the depths of this ice flower, it was faintly discernible, as if a human-shaped matter was sealed.
It was the ancient Dream Saintess.
“Is She Alright?”
Meng Chao took a closer look, but under the cover of the ice, he couldn’t see the ancient Dream Saintess’appearance clearly. He could only sense her weak life magnetic field, which was like a candle flame. She could be torn into pieces by the storm of death at any time.
“She’s fine for now, but the situation is very unstable. Her internal organs are showing signs of bleeding and exhaustion. Her brain is more like a pot of boiling mandala soup. She could burn her entire head into a pile of charcoal at any time.”
“I don’t know how long it will take for you to shake off the assassin and break out of the encirclement,”ice storm explained. “So, we can only freeze her first to prevent her injuries from spreading and worsening.”
The reason was that the volume of the liquid would expand when it was frozen.
If the temperature was lowered slowly, the frozen cells would explode due to the expansion of their volume. Even if the temperature was raised again, it would be impossible for them to regain their vitality.
However, for an expert like the ice storm who was good at manipulating ice, if the temperature was lowered to tens of degrees below zero, or even hundreds of degrees below zero, the cells would freeze before they could expand, thus maintaining the internal vitality of the cells, it was a sure thing.
The current ancient Dream Saintess was equivalent to entering a special hibernation state, temporarily preserving her last hope.
