With Meng Chao and Ice Storm’s strength, they were far from the level where they could snatch the totem armors of two battle group level powerhouses.
However, if these two battle group level powerhouses had already killed each other and both of them were injured, with their last breaths left, or if one of them died and the other was also on the verge of death, that would be a different matter.
Once the thoughts of snatching the Platinum Embrace and the Teeth of Corrosion were ignited in his heart, they would flow through his nerves and sulci. Then, it would be unstoppable.
“Seize it, fuse with it, and eat it!”
Meng Chao heard a voice in his heart roaring crazily.
Thousands of strands of biological electricity surged out from his central nervous system, stimulating every nerve ending in his body to bloom like a flower, causing every muscle fiber and finger of his to be restless.
Indeed, before confronting “Jackal” Kanus head-on, it was extremely difficult for his combat strength to make an explosive leap.
But the fusion and upgrading of the totem battle armor was relatively easier.
As long as he was willing to take the slightest bit of insignificant risk..
Meng Chao’s heart trembled.
He suddenly realized that this wasn’t his idea.
It was the idea of the totem armor that he was wearing.
It was the artificial intelligence that was hidden in the depths of the totem armor that had implanted such a radical idea into his logical thinking.
The totem armor, to be more precise, was a liquid metal-like substance that formed the totem armor. It seemed to be a ferocious, treacherous, and insatiable creature.
Like all creatures, they had the instinct to constantly absorb materials and energy, and to continuously evolve and multiply.
All totem armors desired to constantly collide with other totem armors, tearing and destroying each other. In the end, they would devour or be devoured by the opponent, and then condense into even more powerful totem armors.
As for the nominal owner of the totem armors, the body of flesh and blood that was wrapped by it, after the incomparably tragic collision, whether he was dead or alive, that was a matter of no importance.
Anyway, Tu Lanze, no, the entire world, was obsessed with power. There were plenty of carbon-based humanoid creatures that yearned to obtain a set of totem armor and fight to the death to make a contribution.
If this owner died, the totem armor could change its new owner every minute.
Even if it could not find a suitable new owner for a time, the totem armor could still afford to wait in the depths of the temple or the swamp for hundreds or even thousands of years.
Thinking of this, Meng Chao calmed his mind and completely ignored the chattering of the totem armor in the depths of his brain.
“Calm down.”
He said to Ice Storm, “The totem armor of a battle group level powerhouse is indeed sharp, but only the two of us can take it with our lives!”
“I know.”
Ice Storm stared at the col and softly said, “Don’t worry, unless Platinum Embrace and Teeth of Corrosion both suffer heavy losses or even perish together, otherwise, I will not be impulsive.”
“Wrong. Even if they really die together, I can’t act Rashly.”
Meng Chao said, “Didn’t you notice something very strange? The furious lion warriors and fierce tiger warriors below are fighting so fiercely. The mandala forest on both sides of the col has been blown to pieces by them. However, the Wolf King’s guards are still lurking around them, perfectly concealing their aura. They were not discovered by powerhouses like Platinum Embrace and Teeth of Corrosion!”
As soon as he said this, Ice Storm was also slightly stunned.
Indeed, this was really strange.
One should know that whether it was Platinum Embrace, Teeth of Corrosion or their subordinates, they were all experts who could fight against a hundred people by themselves.
Under the enhancement of the totem battle armor, each of them was like a human-shaped self-propelled cannon.
The furious lion warrior and the fierce tiger warrior each held an overweight weapon that weighed hundreds of pounds. When they fiercely collided with each other, there was a thunderous roar as well as a shock wave like a raging wave, it was no less intense than the fierce fire from the siege cannons against the city walls.
The battle was so intense that the entire col seemed to have been swept back and forth several times by storms, mudslides, and meteor showers.
The weeds, thorns, and shrubs in the col had long been burnt to ashes.
The scattered mud and swamps had also evaporated water, revealing the hardened mud.
The mandala trees on both sides of the col were either cut in half or uprooted.
The scene was a mess, and the aftermath was right in front of Meng Chao and Ice Storm.
Even they had to hold their breath, wiggle their bodies like earthworms, and keep retreating to avoid being exposed.
How could the Wolf King’s personal guards hide under the eyes of the lion warriors and not reveal any flaws?
This was unreasonable.
One had to know that the individual combat strength of the wolf warriors should be far inferior to that of the lion warriors.
Normally, in such a situation, they would not even be able to maintain a uniform heartbeat and breathing under the lion warriors’ burning rage.
Not to mention, they were able to hide themselves so perfectly.
“These wolf king guards are very strong. At the very least, their ability to hide is very strong, far beyond the Wolf Clan. No, it’s beyond the standard of a high-level orc.”
Meng Chao muttered to himself.
He narrowed his eyes, and his gaze was like a ray that could penetrate everything, scanning back and forth in front of the col.
Since the furious lion warrior and fierce tiger warrior kept surging the power of their totems, the collision created layers of spirit energy ripples that seriously interfered with his scanning.
This time, it took him more than half a minute to barely recognize the existence of more than ten Wolf King Guards.
They were still hiding behind trees, rocks, and deep in the swamp.
Under the violent pressure of the lion warriors, they did not move at all. They lowered their body temperature to the limit, and at the same time, they isolated their heartbeat and breathing.
They were like ice-cold corpses, perfectly integrated with the surrounding environment.
No, Meng Chao noticed that one of the lurkers’chest was deeply sunken, and his cheeks were bulging, as if they were filled with blood and minced meat spewing out from the depths of his throat. His eyes were wide open.
However, he died silently in the depths of the dry swamp and really became a corpse.
He should have been accidentally injured by the shock waves from Platinum Embrace and Teeth of Corrosion just now.
Until death slit his throat, the lurker did not even let out a single scream.
He even clenched his teeth tightly, not allowing even a drop of blood to seep out of the corner of his mouth.
This was such astonishing willpower and control.
How terrifying was his loyalty to ‘Wolf King’Kanus!
If it wasn’t for Meng Chao’s unique keen senses as a ghost assassin, he would have been able to discern the subtle temperature difference between them and the surrounding environment.
He almost suspected that these guys were all killing machines in human skin. Their stomachs were filled with gears, bearings, and engines!
Wait a minute, when he mentioned the ghost assassins, Meng Chao suddenly had a very strange feeling in his heart.
The more he observed, the more he felt that the Wolf King’s personal guards controlled their breathing, heartbeat, and body temperature. The method of hiding around the strong was similar to the “Undead technique”used by the ghost assassins.
No, that was simply the “Undead technique”!
The stealth and hiding technique used by the Wolf King’s personal guards was almost exactly the same as what Meng Chao had learned in the black skeleton training camp in his previous life!
Meng Chao could not help but laugh in his heart.
“How is this possible?”
He told himself.., “The “Undead technique”was an ancient technique that the Dragon City civilization had analyzed based on the number one Archean ruins. In addition to the hundreds of years of accumulation of human engineering and life sciences in the Earth era, it was the crystallization of wisdom that was repeatedly pondered, accumulated, and created. Just like the “Strange Thorn Technique”, it was the original martial arts of the Dragon City civilization.
“In my previous life, in the later stage of the war between worlds, the undead technique and the strange thorn technique might have been passed on to the high-level orcs who were my allies.
“But now, the Dragon City civilization and the Turan civilization haven’t had any large-scale contact, and I haven’t taught the profound meaning of the undead technique to Leaf or Ice Storm.
“How can the subordinates of ‘Jackal’ Kanus be so familiar with the original martial arts of the Dragon City’s civilization?
“It must be a coincidence.”.
“Either that, or the Turan civilization also has its own ruins, and there are similar techniques hidden in the depths of the ruins.”
“That’s right, it must be so.”
No matter what techniques these Wolf King’s personal guards used.
Meng Chao’s evaluation of their combat ability had increased by several levels.
Before completely understanding the strength of the Wolf King’s personal guards, seeing that both Platinum Embrace and Teeth of Corrosion had suffered heavy losses, he had rashly rushed out with Ice Storm to snatch the totem armor.
That was truly foolish to the extreme. He was seeking his own death!
This thought had just flashed past Meng Chao’s mind.
The battle situation that was constantly advancing towards the cliff in the col had undergone an avalanche-like change.
Originally, the heavily injured Platinum Embrace could still rely on his determination to perish together to slowly deal with Teeth of Corrosion.
However, as more and more of his subordinates around him were destroyed by the fierce tiger warriors one by one.
Almost all the remaining furious lion warriors were surrounded by the fierce lion warriors, and the distance between them and Platinum Embrace was getting farther and farther.
The fierce lion warriors, who had the absolute advantage in numbers, could free up weapons and space to help their generals deal with the most important target together.
A fierce lion warrior whose totem armor was broken, whose chest was full of swords and sabers, and whose shoulder was embedded with a battle axe, knew that he was going to die for sure. He actually felt the blessing of the ancestral spirit in a trance, he burst out with the last and most violent strength.
He threw down the battle hammer in his hand and grabbed the ankles of a furious lion warrior’s corpse with both of his arms. Even with the corpse and the armor, hundreds of pounds of heavy objects were danced vigorously by him, like a metal storm with blood and flesh flying everywhere, he pounced toward Platinum Embrace from behind.
Platinum Embrace had a head full of shiny, long hair that was as sharp as blades, as if it had a life of its own. It grew eyes and immediately circled behind him, tearing through the air and letting out a sharp whistle, forming a crisscrossing large net of flying blades, the Tiger Warrior’s limbs and head were precisely cut off from the root.
However, it was unable to stop the other party’s severed limbs and two furious Lion Warriors’corpses from turning into a high-speed collision of blood and wind that rained down on the Tiger Warrior’s head and body.
