Meng Chao quickly glanced at the leopard poet under his feet.
After his cultivation had broken through to the Deity Realm, his super vision allowed him to distinguish between most of the invisible light and penetrate his targetâs clothes and even skin.
In fact, after being dragged and torn along the way, the clothes on the leopard poetâs body had been reduced to shreds.
Although the Lion King never tortured him, he had plundered all the items on the leopard poetâs body. He did not even spare a single spot.
Meng Chao did not find anything that could be called a âfeatherâ or a âmarkâ on his body.
But what Ice Storm said made sense.
A secret weapon from the Land of Holy LightâŠ
It would indeed be difficult to trade it out in Picturesque Orchid Lake.
Meng Chao picked up the leopard poet, and his gaze was like a cold scalpel, gently scraping his facial features.
Sensing Meng Chaoâs sharp killing intent, the leopard poetâs eyes finally turned away from the Wolf King.
Seeing Meng Chaoâs black hair and black eyes, as well as his gorgeous armor that was not inferior to the Wolf Kingâs, the leopard poet was slightly stunned.
âHow incredibleâŠâ
A flame of excitement surged in his eyes. He was not worried about his situation at all. Instead, he was filled with intense curiosity and joy. âAn outsider managed to actually wear a totem armor that has received the ancestral spiritâs blessing. If Iâm not mistaken, the inside of this totem armor is the same as
that of the Wolf Kingâs armor. It contains the abilities of the three epic heroes, Fist, Stomach-less King, and Broken Wings!
âWho are you? Have you also been sent by the great ancestral spirit to help the Wolf King and help us save Picturesque Orchid Lake?â
Meng Chao frowned deeply.
He had shared the battle experience and innate skills contained in the three slaughter statues with the Wolf King.
Indeed, three mysterious and complicated totems had appeared on the surface of his armor.
He did not expect the leopard tribe poet to see the origin of his power from the three totems at a glance.
He was indeed worthy of the name, âFerdosi.â
Apart from that, Meng Chao also noticed that the leopard poetâs tone was different from that of ordinary orcs.
Compared with the modern Turan language that was currently prevalent in Picturesque, his was simple, rough, straightforward, and mixed with a lot of slang.
The leopard poet spoke with a lot of tongue flicks, tongue curls, and trills. It was even closer to the ancient Turan language that the human-faced spider had instilled into Meng Chaoâs brain.
This language, which was popular seven to eight thousand years ago, had not completely vanished. It still retained a certain amount of scientific research and computational ability. A unit of bytes many times more information than the modern Turan language.
The leopard poet used an ancient tone, which revealed a trace of surprise and expressed the right amount of respect to Meng Chao, this mysterious expert with black hair and black eyes. It even indirectly highlighted his own value as he directly pointed out the origin of Meng Chaoâs power.
âThere were several layers of meaning in just two to three sentences from him. That was something most Turan orcs, who preferred to pull out their fists rather than their tongues, could not do.
However, Meng Chao did not understand why such a knowledgeable and extremely intelligent Leopard Clan poet would be so loyal to âJackalâ Kanus.
Time was of the essence. An increasing number of lion and tiger warriors was being entangled and torn to pieces by the wildly dancing mandrake roots, branches, and vines.
âThe Lion King and Tiger King were also being suppressed by the Wolf King. They were becoming more and more impatient as well as flustered.
Meng Chao grabbed the leopard poetâs collar and growled, âHand over the âmark!â
Ferdosi was taken aback for a moment.
He did not seem to understand. The totem armor on Meng Chao and the Wolf King were clearly branded with the marks of Fist, Stomach-less King, and Broken Wings.
Why did this mysterious powerhouse with black hair and black eyes want to harm the Wolf King?
His gaze moved quickly between Meng Chao and Ice Storm for a moment. A bizarre, fanatical, and martyr-like expression appeared on his face.
âNo, I wonât hand the âmark over to you.â
The leopard poet smiled and said, âBecause you want to harm the only person who has a chance to save Picturesque Orchid Lake, Lord Wolf King!â
âYouâŠâ
Meng Chao was familiar with the leopard poetâs expression. It showed that he was unrepentant and unafraid of death.
In Dragon City, he had seen countless human warriors with similar expressions on their faces as they charged toward the overwhelming beast horde.
In Picturesque Orchid Lake, he had also seen numerous orc warriors with similar expressions on their faces as they issued the final and most glorious challenge to death or their enemies, who were many times stronger than them.
He knew that once someone showed such an expression on their face, it would be almost impossible to force him to yield despite any pain, torture, or death threats.
âOpen your eyes and see clearly!â
Feeling helpless, Meng Chao could only grab the leopard poetâs cervical vertebra and forcibly turn his head in the mother of originâs direction, âDo you see that thing, which seems to be beating like a demonâs heart or brain? Since youâve infiltrated the Land of Holy Light and stolen the secrets of the Holy Light
Temple, you must have heard of the name, âEgg of Chaosâ!
âThatâs the Egg of Chaos, and your dearest Lord Wolf King has been controlled by it!
âOnce the Wolf King is completely turned into the Egg of Chaosâ puppet, or even the Demon King of Terrorâs host inside the Egg of Chaos, not only will he be incapable of saving Picturesque Orchid Lake, heâll even become the main cause of Picturesque Orchid Lakeâs destruction!
âWe donât need to harm the Wolf King, but we have to find a way to suppress the Egg of Chaos and use our will to absorb the power within the Egg of Chaos in a relatively controllable, stable, and safe way.
âItâs the only way to save Picturesque Orchid Lake. Do you understand?â
Meng Chao subconsciously poured a lot of spirit energy into his voice.
His words were literally deafening.
The leopard poetâs brain hummed from the shock, and he could not help but fall into deep thought.
However, after careful consideration, the result was still an unwavering âno.â
âT donât know who you are. Perhaps you do have unrivaled power and some unknown information, but I only obey the Wolf Kingâs orders.â
The leopard poetâs eyes were filled with reverence like flowing fire. He used flowery words and spoke about the Wolf King in an almost mushy tone. âYou have no idea how amazing the Wolf King is. When I first met him, he was not even twenty years old. He was just a corpse-eating dog who lived at the
bottom of the grave robbersâ circle. There was no way that he had access to all kinds of top-secret information about the lost temple and ancient Turan history.
âAt that time, I even had thoughts of recruiting him to be my subordinate.
âHowever, after just one contact with the Wolf King, I was horrified to discover that underneath the corpse-eating dogâs weak appearance was an incomparably powerful and intense soul.
âHe clearly never received any education, yet his mind was sharper and more meticulous than a bard like me.
âHe shouldnât have known the lost templeâs coordinates at all. I risked my life to steal a lot of top-secret information from the Land of Holy Light. In the entire Picturesque Orchid Lake, only I knew about it. Yet, he was like a prophet, always helping me to fill in the gaps and fill in the fragmented maps as well
as information.
âHe clearly shouldnât have mastered so many amazing combat techniques, as well as techniques to break traps and sneak assassinations. Yet, he was already like a veteran assassin in his early twenties. He could use two fingers to dismantle fatal traps inside the lost temple, or he could use a single hair to kill
three targets at the same time.
âBesides, he talked about the evolution of the situation between the five great clans, the power struggle within the Wolf Clan, the weaknesses in the Lion King and Tiger Kingâs personalities, and how to make use of these weaknesses to quickly rise up, the end of this era of prosperity and the beginning of the
era of glory, and when the mandrake flower would begin to bloom. He made astonishing predictions three, five, or even seven, eight years ago.
âThere doesnât seem to be any evidence. There isnât even any prophecy to aid in his process of speculation. Even nonsense that he spouted when he was drunk would always hit the bullâs-eye.
âIcant explain such a miracle.
âEven though Iâve gone through all the war epics and heroic legends in Picturesque Orchid Lake, I still canât find a second mysterious and powerful existence like the Wolf King.
âIcan only believe that the Wolf King has received the collective blessing of billions of ancestral spirits. He is the greatest savior and conqueror that the ancestral spirits have chosen and bestowed upon Picturesque Orchid Lake. He is destined to lead the Turan civilization to rise again and defeat the Holy
Light Temple once and for all!
âIf there are unknown dangers hidden in the depths of the Holy Mountain temple, such as the Egg of Chaos lurking in the underground rocks, it is possible that they can control the Wolf Kingâs mind.
âThen, Lord Wolf King must have predicted the danger three to five years in advance, and he must have thought of a foolproof countermeasure.
âIf Lord Wolf King seems like the motherâs puppet in such a situation, I can only say that it is just an illusion on the surface. He must have done it on purpose. Everything is part of Lord Wolf Kingâs plan. He definitely has the confidence and ability to draw the motherâs power, but he is not under its control.
âTherefore, before Lord Wolf King gives me a clear order, I canât hand the âmarkâ over to avoid disrupting his plan!â
