Chapter 1230: The Power of Truth

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Platinum Embrace knew that he was going to die.

Whether it was the spear that had pierced through his chest and torn his heart apart, or his blood and flesh that were drying up due to overexertion, or his nerves, blood vessels, and muscle fibers that were gradually decaying after being penetrated by Teeth of Corrosion’s totem power…

All of this meant that his life could only be calculated in units of “moments.”

Even if he was soaked in the thickest secret medicine and treated by the most powerful witch doctor and priest of the Gold Clan, he would not be able to see the sun rise tomorrow.

Therefore, his struggle had become meaningless.

The only thing he could do was to try his best to continue the mission that could prolong the life and death of the Lion clan after he died.

With this thought in mind, the platinum embrace’s gaze shifted from Meng Chao and icestorm to the depths of the cave.

There was another person lying in the depths of the cave.

She seemed to be in a high fever and was unconscious. Her body was wrapped in seven or eight layers of bedding. She was still convulsing and groaning indistinctly.

The platinum embrace could not see this person’s face clearly.

However, he could feel that her brain was like a furious volcano that was constantly releasing violent waves.

The invisible waves were like raging waves that crashed into the skull of the ‘Platinum Embrace’. Even with the protection of the helmet and mask, it still gave him a splitting headache, and illusions appeared before his eyes.

It was strange. From the perspective of the ‘Platinum Embrace’, he should not have seen the person’s back facing him and his face in the depths of the cave.

But in his trance, he clearly saw the man wearing a golden armor. He looked solemn, holy, and majestic, like a crystal statue.

In the next moment, the golden statue cracked and disintegrated, turning into a woman whose head was unbelievably big, ugly, ragged, and as humble as dust.

When he blinked for the third time, the ‘Platinum Embrace’saw the eyes of ‘Jackal’kanus on the woman’s face. In the eyes of the wolf, which were as red as ink, there was undisguised ambition.

That’s right, it was ambition. The platinum embrace had never seen anything in the eyes of this loyal lackey.

“How could this be?”

The platinum embrace was shocked.

He immediately realized that he was hallucinating.

As a first-rate expert of the furious Lion Clan, the platinum embrace had naturally come into contact with a large number of mysterious priests.

These priestesses all had the ability to see through the soul and create illusions.

However, even though this curled-up woman was clearly in a deep coma, she was still able to disrupt his brain in an instant.

It seemed that her strength was even stronger and purer than the priestesses of the lion and tiger clans.

Such a strange thing was something the platinum embrace had never encountered before.

“Who are you people?”

He could not hold it in any longer and could not help but ask, “Why did you save me?”

“We are members of the great horn army, rat people who rebelled against the rule of the five great clans.”

Meng Chao took a deep breath and withdrew his totem armor. He opened his arms and exposed his chest and heart to the attack range of the platinum embrace.

The ice storm beside him could not help but widen his eyes.

He was sweating for his recklessness.

In theory, until now, the Great Horn Army and the five great clans were still mortal enemies.

If it were any other time, if the ‘Platinum Embrace’had bumped into a member of the Great Horn Army, he would definitely not have minded. He would not have added any seasoning and would have swallowed the poor rat citizen alive.

However, Meng Chao insisted on being honest with the platinum embrace.

He believed that the other party wouldn’t act impulsively.

It wasn’t just because everyone could see that the platinum embrace was on the verge of dying. There was no point in dragging a few rat citizens to die with him. The final pride of the high orc nobles wouldn’t allow him to do so.

Furthermore, Meng Chao knew that the platinum embrace was filled with confusion over the sudden betrayal.

And he was the only one who could solve the confusion before the “Platinum embrace”died.

As expected, the “Platinum embrace”was like a statue that was covered in icicles. After being stiff for more than half a minute, a weak sigh finally came from the depths of the armor.

He also imitated Meng Chao and took off his totem armor, revealing his body that was dyed a deep red by the dried blood.

“Do you know who I am?”

It was not a question, but a confirmation. The loose skin on the ‘platinum embrace”s face drooped down, covering the killing intent that originated from the Fury Lion bloodline, making him look like a drowning dog that had lost its way, he muttered, “Aren’t you afraid of being killed by me, or even the great horn army being destroyed?”

“It doesn’t matter anymore.”

Meng Chao said calmly, “Because five days ago, the great horn army was destroyed by ‘Hu Lang’kanus. To be more precise, it was ‘annexed’.”

“What? !”

The Platinum Group was shocked and cried out involuntarily.

It seemed that Hu Lang kanus had indeed failed to inform the lion and tiger clans in Crimson Gold City about the important military information that could change the ruling order of Turanze.

As a result, the surrendered soldiers of the Great Horn Army had been reorganized and obeyed the orders of “Jackal”. Today, the “Platinum embrace”still knew nothing about this.

As the brother of the great chief of the gold clan, the “Platinum embrace”was obviously not a simple-minded boor with strong limbs.

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and thought quickly. When he opened his eyes again, his gaze had become clear and clear.

“What’s going on?”

The noose of death tightened around his throat. His face was so pale that there was no color in it, and it was extremely difficult for him to breathe.

However, as his life force was rapidly draining away, his expression became calm as he muttered, “Even if the great horn army is just a motley crew, there’s no reason for them to completely collapse within a few days. What exactly happened five days ago?”

“We are not too sure about the details. All We know is that many warriors and priests of the Great Horn Army went crazy on a dark night, and the ancient Dream Holy Maiden was assassinated.”

Meng Chao briefly explained what had happened in the past few days to the ‘Platinum Embrace’.

Other than his real identity and the methods that he used to rescue the ancient Dream Holy Maiden, he did not tamper with or hide anything else.

After all, the truth was the most powerful. If he wanted to gain the trust of the platinum embrace in the few hours before his death, he had to be open and honest.

Therefore.., meng Chao didn’t even hide anything. “This is the SAINTESS. We saved her by chance, but because of the bloody battles, her brain was severely damaged, her soul was consumed, and she fell into a deep coma. We couldn’t wake her up no matter how hard we tried.

“We could only hide her here in the hope that we could avoid the enemy’s search.

“Without the call of the SAINTESS, we no longer have any power to stop the collapse of the Great Horn Army.

“Within three to five days, most of the rat soldiers surrendered to ‘Jackal’kanus, and a few warriors who were unwilling to surrender broke out of the siege and headed south, hoping to return to their nest.

“As for why we saved you, well, of course, we know who you are and that you are an enemy of the Great Horn Legion.

“However, the enemy who personally destroyed the Great Horn Legion is, after all, ‘Jackal’kanus, and it seems that the subordinates of ‘Jackal’Kanus are going to kill you.

“I don’t know why they are doing this. I just don’t want to let ‘Jackal’kanus get what he wants.

“Jackwolf is our mortal enemy, and you’re also the mortal enemy of ‘Jackwolf.’then, perhaps, the mortal enemy of our mortal enemy might have a chance of cooperating?

“At the very least, before you die, can you tell us some information so that we know how to escape and create more trouble for ‘Jackwolf’Kanus?”

The platinum embrace stared at the unconscious ancient Dream Saintess for a long time.

He was filled with emotions. Before today, he never dreamed that he would meet the culprit who caused the great horn rebellion in such a situation.

“Platinum embrace”tried its best to find the flaws and contradictions in Meng Chao’s words.

However, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the information Meng Chao told him and the shocking changes that happened in Crimson Gold City in the past few days, as well as the strange sensations he sensed after he went deep into the area controlled by “Hu Lang”kanus.., they could be perfectly matched.

Moreover, the violent ripples that were constantly being released from the depths of the ancient Dream Saintess’brain were something that could not be faked no matter what.

Other than the witch who had wreaked havoc on the entire map, who else could plant so many vivid illusions into the brain of the ‘platinum embrace’in such a short period of time?
