Chapter 994: About to Start a Bloodbath

“Reaper! Reaper! You definitely won’t be able to guess what happened last night. Something really big happened this time!”

Leaf stumbled into the infirmary and came before a large medicine vat that was about the height of a person. He held the medicine vat and panted for a long time before he remembered to ask, “Are you awake?”

“I’m already awake.”

Meng Chao poked his head out of the medicine vat. He glanced at the rat teen first before he crawled out with some difficulty.

“Wow!”

As he watched the sparkling and translucent medicine drip down from his marble-like muscles, other than his slightly pale skin, he did not see a single scar. Leaf could not help but secretly click his tongue, “Reaper, your injuries are recovering so quickly. You were covered in wounds and bleeding profusely after the match yesterday. Have all your wounds healed so quickly?”

“Yes, it’s all thanks to Lady Ice Storm taking care of me and specifically calling the witch doctor here to give me the best secret medicine so that my external wounds can heal faster. However, my internal injuries remain very serious, and I’m still incredibly weak. A gust of wind can blow me down. Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough.”

Meng Chao coughed for a long time and asked, “What time is it now? Why were you so anxious to get here? Did something happen?”

“It’s almost noon. You’ve been soaking in the big medicine vat for almost a day and a night!”

Leaf was partially nervous and partially excited as he said, “It’s been a really long night. Indeed, a world-shaking event has happened. You definitely won’t be able to guess—Big Buck is dead!”

Meng Chao was stunned for a while before he suspiciously asked, “Who’s Big Buck?”

“Big Buck was one of the spectators in the Blood Skull Arena. He’s a team-level powerhouse with his own totem battle armor. He’s barely considered an expert!”

Leaf said, “He lives in the Blood Skull Arena with the other spectators. Usually, even if he drinks at night, he should be back by the moment of the worm. However, he didn’t come back last night. This morning, Casanova sent people to look for him, but they couldn’t find any clues. It’s like a bull-headed warrior with a strong back and a thick waist. He turned into smoke and floated into the sky.”

“I see.”

Meng Chao said, “He’s just missing. Maybe he went out to indulge in debauchery, got drunk, and was under the thighs of some barbarian elephant beauty. What makes you think that he’s dead?”

“Because many people heard buck of the red stream family say that he must kill Big Buck in public!”

Leaf said, “Some people saw Buck of the Red Creek family and his cousins secretly discussing something and then disappeared into the night. When they reappeared, they were all panting and panicking, as if they had just fought.

“A few days ago, buck of the Red Creek town had a very serious conflict with big buck. There were also rumors that big buck kept bragging about Buck of the Red Creek Town, saying that he was useless and didn’t deserve the name ‘Buck’. He was only worthy of the name ‘Little Buck’.

“You know, high-level orcs can’t stand people saying they’re weak. The name ‘Little Buck’is more vicious than any curse. No wonder they would fight each other to the death!”

“Wait, why is there another buck? It makes my head hurt,”Meng Chao said.

“It’s because there are two buck’s that one of them has to die!”

Leaf recounted to Meng Chao the gossip he had heard this morning. It was detailed and embellished.

Only then did Meng Chao understand. “That is to say, bull-headed bark mocked wild boar bark for being weak, but he was killed by the latter… this is just your speculation. There’s no real evidence, right?”

“What do you need real evidence for? Wild boar bark has already admitted it!”Leaf said matter-of-factly.

“Eh?”

Meng Chao was really stunned. “There’s such a thing? Buck the wild boar admitted that he killed bull-headed Buck?”

“Of course, not the kind of confession where he kneels in front of the temple and gives a full account of his crimes. However, when a busybody asked Buck the wild boar, he didn’t deny it. Instead, when he heard the news of bull-headed Buck’s disappearance, he laughed so hard that he couldn’t close his mouth!”

Leaf said, “Originally, the people who were insulted by the name ‘Little Buck’ were not just the wild boar Barker himself, but all the wild boar warriors from Red Creek Town. In order to protect the glory of the ancestral spirit, revenge was inevitable, and it was even worth encouraging.

“Moreover, they did it very cleanly, and they were not caught by the Blood Hoof Clan at all. This was simply a perfect revenge that was worth bragging about for a year and a half!

“Also, although Buck, the wild boar didn’t admit it himself, he winked and told the busybody a scandal—Minotaur Buck was a regular customer of the sugarhouse. Moreover, he was killed on the way out of the sugarhouse.

“Tell me, if Buck, the wild boar didn’t do it himself, how could he know so much?

“As for what the sugarhouse is… I don’t really know. Anyway, I heard from them that it’s a very absurd, depraved, and evil place. Proper warriors never go there.

“Minotaur Buck’s death isn’t enough. Even the most shameful secret has been exposed. There’s no longer any honor for the warriors of the clan. It’s really miserable to the extreme. Even Lord Casanova and the entire Blood Hoof Clan were dragged down by him. They lost their face!

“In short, the Blood Hoof Clan suffered a great loss this time. The wild boar man, who has been suppressed by the bull-headed man, felt proud. The wild boar warriors of the Ironhide Clan are very impressive. After all, the Red River clan is their vassal!”

Meng Chao scratched his chin for a long time.

“So, the disappearance of Big Buck is no longer a simple matter of revenge. Instead, it has set off a chain reaction and turned into a fight between two great clans?” he said thoughtfully.

“That’s right!”

These days, Leaf had received personal guidance from Meng Chao. In addition to his combat skills, he also had the skills of collecting, organizing, and analyzing information. His logical reasoning ability far surpassed that of ordinary mouse people or even warriors.

“The last time when Lady Ice Storm heavily injured Poison Stinger and even tore apart the One Million Steam Hammer, the Ironhide Clan and the Blood Hoof Clan had a conflict. In addition, this time, they suffered such a huge setback. If the Blood Hoof Clan can’t return a tooth for a tooth, how will they face? How will they command all the Turan, wild boar, Centaur, hippo, reindeer, and barbarian elephant people in the entire Blood Hoof Clan?”

Leaf said, “So, Lady Ice Storm told us to be careful in the next few days. Stay in the Blood Skull Arena and don’t run around. It seems that a bloody storm might break out in the entire Black-corner City!

“By the way, Lady Ice Storm asked me to call for you. Go to her immediately. It’s strange. You were seriously injured yesterday. How did Lady Ice Storm know that you would wake up so soon?”

“Because she’s Lady Ice Storm!”

Meng Chao rubbed the mouse-peasant boy’s head and told him to stay put. He would practice more saber techniques when he had nothing to do. Later, he would give him a small test.

Then, he walked quickly to the ace training field where Ice Storm was.

When he arrived at the private training field that belonged to the ace.

Ice Storm was also practicing the hundred-battle saber technique that originated from Dragon City.

Its power was naturally a hundred times sharper than Leaf’s.

Frost condensed on the blade. With a light wave of the blade, a series of sharp icicles could be brandished. It was like an ice dragon baring its fangs and brandishing its claws as it flew up and down, causing the entire training ground to be shrouded in a dense fog that was close to zero degrees Celsius.

Looking at the vigorous figure of Ice Storm that was faintly discernible in the dense fog…

Meng Chao had to admit that although human genes and the genes of fierce beasts were combined, most of the time, monsters that were born were deformed and ugly.

However, under the meticulous craftsmanship of the creator, it was possible to produce a biological weapon that had both destructive power and beauty. It was almost a perfect biological weapon.

Suddenly, the moment he locked the door.

The Ice Dragon instantly turned into a crystal clear bolt of lightning and pounced in front of Meng Chao. Its sharp claws, which were like Scimitars, stabbed at the center of Meng Chao’s brows.

The fierce and peerless killing intent pierced into the depths of Meng Chao’s brain like an ice pick.

However, Meng Chao did not even blink.

He did not even move his toes.

As expected, Ice Storm’s sharp claws stopped one millimeter away from his glabella.

The snow leopard female warrior let out a soft “Eh”.

She looked at Meng Chao strangely and said, “I can’t sense the existence of totem power in your body. You didn’t absorb Big Buck’s totem armor?”

It was not a question, but a confirmation.

Meng Chao blinked and turned back to confirm that he had locked the door.

“If you are truly working with me, don’t treat me as a fool.”

Ice Storm snorted and said, “The last time you released such a strong killing intent towards Big Buck, it made me feel very strange. I investigated curiously and found out that Big Buck was the one who brought you to the Blood Skull Arena.

“Although I don’t know what the grudge between you two is, I don’t think that Big Buck’s disappearance is the revenge of some red stream family. It’s just a local vassal family. Even if they could kill Big Buck, how could they be so clean and silent?

“Even though there’s no evidence, from the impression you usually leave me, once Big Buck falls into your hands, there’s no way he can survive.”

Meng Chao Shrugged.

He originally didn’t want to hide it from Ice Storm.

“I’ve said before, Lady Ice Storm will know what I’m going to do this morning,” he said lightly.

“But, where’s Big Buck’s totem armor?”

Ice Storm didn’t care about Big Buck’s life and death as expected. She looked at Meng Chao with interest, “I thought your main purpose of painstakingly killing Big Buck was to snatch his totem armor!

“Since the armor is already in your hands, why didn’t you absorb it directly into your body?

“I understand now. Are you thinking that, if the totem armor is really the blessing and crystallization of the ancestral spirit, wouldn’t it trigger some unpredictable and uncontrollable consequences if you wear the totem armor rashly from a race other than Picturesque Orchid Lake, such as suffering the resistance and backlash of the armor, or even being sucked dry of your flesh and blood by the armor, becoming a ‘Warrior of origin’, and so on?”
