Even so, Ice Storm could read his mind from his expression.

“Do you know that you look like a wizard right now?” Ice Storm said.

Meng Chao thought for a moment. Wizards seemed to be a special class in the land of Holy Light.

Compared with advanced orcs who were crazy about fighting, the mages, ascetics, and night watchers who were fanatical about true gods, and the more mysterious ancient tombs and abyssfolk…

Wizards were the most logical people in the entire Other World.

For Ice Storm to say, she was admitting that she was from the land of Holy Light.

Otherwise, she would never have identified a living wizard in Picturesque Orchid Lake.

“It’s done.”

Meng Chao observed the color and speed of the bubbles on the surface of the shackles and signaled Ice Storm to raise her wrist.

Then, he rearmed his arms and used his armored hands to firmly hold the two sides of the shackles. He exerted all the strength in his body and tried to pull them off with all his might.

As the blood vessels around his body bulged and roared like flood dragons, the severely corroded shackles became slightly deformed. Tiny cracks appeared around the curled earthworm characters.

“It’s done!”

Ice Storm’s voice was filled with infinite surprise.

She motioned for Meng Chao to let go, then raised her left arm and chanted something.

Wisps of ice-cold white gas spurted out of her jade-white arm and spun around the shackles at a high speed.

In a short while, the metallic luster on the surface of the shackles became as fragile as jade.

With a low growl, Ice Storm smashed the shackles on her left wrist onto the ground.

After being corroded by the secret medicine and hit by Meng Chao’s strange strength, as well as Ice Storm’s frost power, the shackles finally broke, turning into tens of thousands of tiny ice crystals.

“Phew…”

Ice Storm let out a long sigh of relief.

The cold air that had been suppressed for a long time gushed out from his left arm like a flood. Soon, his entire left arm was completely covered by the silvery-white armor.

Now that the seal on his left arm had been broken, the other four shackles were easy to deal with.

Meng Chao and Ice Storm followed the same pattern. In just ten minutes, Ice Storm was completely freed from the broken ice crystals on the ground.

Meng Chao threw the animal skin bag that he had taken from Brute Hammer’s waist to Ice Storm.

The bulging bag was filled with the highest-grade secret medicine and high-energy nutrients extracted from the golden fruit.

Ice Storm recognized Brute Hammer’s symbol on the bag.

She looked at Meng Chao in surprise, opened a bottle of secret medicine, and drank it in one gulp.

“What’s going on outside?”

Her face turned a few shades of red, and she recovered a little bit of her strength before she asked.

Meng Chao gave her a simple introduction on the arrival of the Big-horned Rat God, which caused a series of big explosions in the marsh gas.

“The Big-horned Rat God’s descent led the rat people to start a rebellion?”

Ice Storm frowned slightly and immediately said, “That’s impossible. The series of explosions that I heard just now seemed to be chaotic, but in fact, they were very regular. They were coming from all directions, almost covering the entire Black-corner City.

“Moreover, the initial explosions were launched from dozens of locations at the same time. This means that the detonators are very skilled in digging and underground operations. Their knowledge and use of explosives have reached the level of first-class experts.

“Even if the dwarfs of the land of Holy Light carried out such an operation, they couldn’t have done it better. Yet, you are telling me that this is a mess caused by a group of rat people?

“If the rat people had such an ability, they wouldn’t have been enslaved by the five great clans for ten thousand years!”

“That’s right.”

Meng Chao felt that after he drifted to Picturesque Orchid Lake, he was very lucky to meet Leaf and Ice Storm, the two outliers among the advanced orcs.

Working with them, the strength of the battle was secondary. The key was that the way of thinking of each other was similar, and many problems could be seen through with a single point.

“The so-called arrival of the Big-horned Rat God naturally couldn’t be a trick played by the rat people themselves.”

Meng Chao said, “The rulers of Black-corner City have assumed that the entire matter is a conspiracy created by the Gold Clan. Although I intentionally gave to them the ‘evidence,’ which is absurd and laughable, it’s still possible that they’ve hit the bull’s eye by accident.”

“Wait a minute. You knew that the rats will start a rebellion. Do you know who is hiding behind the Rat God?” A brilliance flashed in Ice Storm’s eyes.

“The one who can get the most benefit from the resistance of tens of millions of rats will be the one who incites the rats to start a rebellion.”

Meng Chao said, “However, before we escape Black-corner City, there’s no need to dwell on this matter for the time being.

“Half an hour has passed since the series of explosions caused by the marsh gas.

“Based on my observation of the military training of the advanced orcs over the past few days, although most of the warriors of the clans are brave and fearless, it’s a little difficult for me to ask them to form a strict battle formation.

“This practical battle drill and the upcoming Tournament of the Five Clans are to solve this problem.

“Before the problem was solved, dense explosions were heard in Black-corner City. The burning flames and the thick smoke of gunpowder covered the entire city. It was impossible for the warriors of the clans to gather their troops and regroup without a moment or two.

“Before they restored order and formed a tight battle formation, they could not rush into Black-corner City like a group of headless flies and restore order in a swarm of scattered soldiers.

“Otherwise, the messy situation will only become more and more chaotic.

“Even if they can form a battle formation and return to the city to quell the rebellion, they can only advance from the outside to the inside. I believe that suppressing the rat people who are determined to die among the burning ruins is not something that can be done quickly, even for the warriors of the clan.

“In short, I think that the Blood Hoof Army will need at least a day and a night to restore order in Black-corner City.

“Of course, as long as they have a firm foothold in the outer city, they can send an elite squad of experts into the inner city to protect their ancestral homes, temples, and warehouses for strategic materials.

“Before that, we have about two to three hours to fish in troubled waters and do whatever we want in Black-corner City, which is extremely empty and chaotic.”

“Then what are we waiting for?”

Cold flames were flowing out of Ice Storm’s eyes. “Before I tear Casanova’s throat apart with my own hands, let me collect some interest from him first!”

…

In the southwestern area of the Blood Skull Arena, stood a temple at the highest point of the terrain.

Like all the temples at Picturesque Orchid Lake, this temple not only offered sacrifices to the heroic souls of all the gladiators who had died in glory in the arena for thousands of years…

It also offered sacrifices to a large number of weapons that had been written down in the Blood Skull Arena’s history.

Sharp blades that had once cut the throats of hundreds of totem beasts…

Fragments of totem armor worn by warriors who had won three hundred battles in a row…

A certain legendary figure who had made a name for himself in the Battle of Glory… Before he rose to prominence, he had been the training equipment for gladiators in the Blood Skull Arena, such as stone locks and stone axes.

It was said that these weapons contained extremely powerful ferocious souls.

Ordinary clan warriors could not control them.

Anyone who wanted to control these weapons would be stripped of their minds and turned into origin warriors the moment they touched them.

Therefore, they could only lie quietly in the temple and wait for the day when their true master would descend.

Besides offering sacrifices to heroic spirits and legendary weapons, the temple had another very important use.

It was used to upgrade totem armor.

It was said that every temple at Picturesque Orchid Lake had a temple core.

It was the blessing given by the ancestral spirits to the blood descendants.

It contained the wisdom of the ancestral spirits that was as lofty as a mountain, as deep as the sea, and wider than the endless starry sky.

Meng Chao was very interested in the temple of the high-level orcs.

He felt that if he went deep into the temple, he would be able to see the original appearance of the Turan civilization.

He would have a deeper understanding of the Turan civilization’s essence.

From there, he would be able to find a way to transform the Turan civilization and turn the advanced orcs into a more reliable ally than in his previous life.

Of course, the legendary weapons in the temple were also something that he yearned for.

Only by obtaining these weapons that had been used by the Turan civilization’s epic heroes could he grasp the most powerful power in the shortest time.

He would then finally be able to face the Wolf Clan’s leader, “Jackal” Kanus, who was about to rise up and become the king of the Turan civilization.

He could decide whether to help or kill the Doomsday Wolf who had created the Chaos faction in his previous life and brought both the Turan civilization and the Dragon City civilization to destruction!

It was a pity that Casanova had always kept a close watch on Blood Skull Temple.

According to the testimony that Meng Chao had received from Big Buck, several teams of elite guards were arranged inside and outside the temple.

A large number of traps were also deployed inside using the technology of their ancient ancestors’ spirits.

Casanova himself would always stay in the temple to cultivate for a long time when he had nothing to do. It was simply impossible to pour water into it.

Meng Chao was so anxious that he could not wait to get in…

Until today…

Until now.

Meng Chao and Ice Storm were crouching behind a piece of debris that was still burning with billowing black smoke. Half of their heads were poking out, and through the gaps in the thick smoke, they observed Blood Skull Temple not far away.

Due to the higher terrain, there were no sewage pipes below, and the external walls of the building were extremely strong.

Blood Skull Temple had not been damaged by the methane explosion.

However, Casanova had led the Blood Skull Battle Group out the city, where Black Horn Temple, which was larger and more ancient, participated in the oath ceremony and actual combat practice.

In order to let more of his beloved generals receive the blessings of the ancestral spirits in Black Horn Temple and to show his face before the powerhouses of dozens of battle groups…

He took away more than half of the guards.

The explosion that just happened in the other areas of the Blood Skull Arena, the escape and destruction of the totem beasts, as well as Leaf and the others leading a large group of civilian rat servants while breaking out of the cage, and the news that even one of the four trump cards, Brute Hammer, had been heavily injured, especially attracted more than half of the remaining guards away.

Now, in front of Blood Skull Temple, there were only two guards left.
