Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

The deafening voice was like a burning wave that rushed into the brain of every fugitive.

The eyes of the fugitives turned red again, and they fell into a frenzy of faith, unable to extricate themselves.

“Praise the Rat God!”

“It was the Rat God who saved all of us!”

“Only the Rat God could create such a miracle!”

The fugitives were trembling all over. They raised their hands high and shouted at the flag of the rat skull from the bottom of their hearts, worshipping it wholeheartedly.

Meng Chao frowned slightly.

He sensed an unnatural surge of brainwaves.

It was the smell of a spiritual secret technique and a spiritual attack.

After careful observation, Meng Chao found that the neck guard of the Great Horn Army officer was a little weird.

The high neck guard not only covered his throat, it also covered a necklace-like thing that was wrapped around his neck and stuck to his throat.

On the “necklace,” a piece of material that looked like a crystal was being released incessantly. It was enough to interfere with the spirit ripples in an ordinary person’s cerebral cortex.

If Meng Chao’s guess was correct…

It should be a tool of some kind of spirit interference.

Wearing it on the neck would enhance the speaker’s credibility.

He and Ice Storm looked at each other.

The latter also noticed something strange, and she mouthed to Meng Chao, “Witch’s Whisper.”

In the land of Holy Light, “Witch’s Whisper” was a specialized term.

It referred to a similar secret technique that used interference with brainwaves to hypnotize others and implant flowery words into other people’s minds.

Although the name contained the word “witch,” Ice Storm, the descendant of a witch, said that wizards or witches were not the only ones who were good at this secret technique.

The priests of light, ascetics, and night watchers of the Church of Holy Light were masters of this technique.

Therefore, they could represent the true God and tame countless people into the purest lambs.

The burning Black-corner City was reminiscent of iron before everyone’s eyes.

On top of that, the Great Horn Army officer bewitched them.

All the fugitives no longer had any doubts about the arrival of the Big-horned Rat God and the final victory of the Great Horn Army.

“At this very moment, there is far more than one Black-corner City that is being turned upside down by the raging fury of the rat citizens!”

The Great Horn officer did not miss the opportunity to continue inciting the rat subjects. “Across the entire Picturesque Orchid Lake, whether it is in the Gold Clan, the Blood Hoof Clan, the Thunder Clan, the Dark Moon Clan, or the Divine Wood Clan, there are countless rat subjects who have reached the limit of their patience. Under the Big-horned Rat God’s guidance and protection, they have picked up their weapons and fought back!

“Before long, the rat subjects who were humiliated and harmed in the past will gather into an invincible force, and that will be the sixth clan with the largest population in Picturesque Orchid Lake, the Great Horn Clan!

“And with the Big-horned Rat God’s blessing and the Great Horn Army’s bloody battles, the Great Horn Clan will certainly become the strongest clan in Picturesque Orchid Lake!

“Tell me, do you believe in the Big-horned Rat God? Do you desire to take up the sword and fight for your own destiny? Do you want to be a member of the Great Horn Clan or even the Great Horn Army?”

The answer was self-evident in such a heated atmosphere.

Even though they had been tortured to death in Black-corner City, or fought fiercely with the Blood Hoof warriors on the road to freedom, the rat people were still wounded and bleeding to the point that they could not even stand up.

They wrung out the last drop of their blood and let out heart-wrenching screams.

“Very good. Then let us embark on the journey as soon as possible and welcome the trial that the Rat God has given us!”

The Great Horn Army officer changed the subject and said in a deep voice, “As you can see, we are only dozens of miles away from Black-corner City.

“Right now, Black-corner City is still in chaos. Many soldiers of the Great Horn Army have volunteered to stay in the city to hold back the Blood Hoof Army and buy us precious time to retreat.

“However, they are outnumbered, so they won’t be able to hold on for long.

“The Bloody Hoof Army will soon discover our secret and catch up to us.

“Everything we have done in Black-corner City has completely stripped the high-ranking warriors of their dignity. At the same time, it has greatly infuriated the Blood Hoof warriors. They will no longer be merciful to us. Once they catch up to us, they will only kill us in the cruelest way!

“Most of us are untrained civilians, after all. It will be easier said than done to compete with the Blood Hoof warriors on our long journey!

“Therefore, we must be mentally prepared for the worst. Everybody, brace yourselves!

“I know that you are exhausted and that many of you are almost bleeding out, but we are all proud people of Turan. We are the warriors of Turan who are protected by the ancestral spirits!

“The ancestral spirits will not protect the lazy and cowards for nothing. We must pass the most difficult trial before us in order to obtain the Rat God’s blessing again!”

These words made the burning brains of the fugitives cool down slightly.

Looking at the vast wilderness in front of them, even those without military common sense realized that escaping Black-corner City was just the easiest first step.

Next, the manner in which they escaped the Blood Hoof Army’s pursuit in the wilderness would be the key to survival.

“Don’t worry, everyone. Although the rat people who have escaped Black-corner City are brave warriors that are not afraid of death, we will not sacrifice any warrior’s life in vain.”

The Great Horn Army officer pointed at the northeastern horizon opposite Black-corner City and said, “From here all the way to the north, every few dozen miles, the Great Horn Army’s encampments will be waiting for everyone. As long as we can run out of three or five encampments, the threat of the pursuers will become smaller and smaller.

“After all, in the eyes of the Blood Hoof warriors, we are just lowly rat people. They cannot possibly use all their forces to annihilate us.

“As long as we can pass through seven camps and reach the border between the Blood Hoof Clan and the Gold Clan, we will be able to join forces with the Great Horn Army’s main force.

“By then, when millions of rat people gather together, it will not be the Blood Hoof warriors who hunt us down. Instead, we will raise an earth-shaking storm that will sweep across the entire area!”

The words of the Great Horn officer aroused the rat people’s vigilance and desire for survival.

It also filled everyone’s hearts with the belief of victory.

Compared with escaping the territory of the Blood Hoof Clan in one breath…

Advancing dozens of miles and arriving at the next camp seemed to be something that could be done through gritted teeth.

Seeing the originally scattered crowd, their morale gradually gathered.

The Great Horn officer immediately divided the fugitives into groups of a hundred people.

Each one-hundred-person group was led by two to three elite rat people soldiers from the Great Horn Army.

They also brought along dried mandala fruit chunks that could last for three to five days, mixed with yogurt and honey, and pressed tightly with rocks.

Many rat soldiers had participated in the operation to destroy the granary and armory in Black-corner City.

Their bodies were bulging and filled with mandrake fruits.

They were also requested by the Great Horn Army officers to hand them over and distribute them.

“The Great Horn Army has arranged everything for you. You will be able to get sufficient supplies every time you arrive at a camp.”

The Great Horn Army officer explained, “The most important thing right now is speed. Speed determines everything!

“If someone brings too much food with him and slows down the entire hundred-man team, the Blood Hoof warriors will catch up to them. Not only will they kill themselves, but they will also kill their other ninety-nine companions. Don’t you agree?”

At this time, most of the fugitives had already listened to the Great Horn Army.

They obediently handed over their hidden food and extra weapons and did not cause much trouble.

Most of the materials that Meng Chao and Ice Storm brought with them were stored in the totem storage space through their totem armors.

The totem armors also turned into a magical substance that looked like liquid metal and disappeared without a trace.

At first glance, they were just two relatively strong ordinary rat refugees.

The Great Horn Army officer never dreamed that there were two extremely dangerous people in his team.

The soldiers of the Great Horn Army only took a rough look at Meng Chao and Ice Storm to see if there were any wounds on their bodies. Then, they asked about their battle records in Black-corner City before arranging them into a relatively healthy and strong hundred-man team.

Right then, the large transmigration array outside the dense forest shone with a wondrous brilliance.

It was the next group of fugitives.

“Set off, set off immediately!”

Urged by the soldiers of the Great Horn Army, the hundred-man team that Meng Chao and Ice Storm were apart of immediately carried simple packages and headed northeast without looking back.

In the military common sense of the Earthlings, it was a disaster for hundreds of untrained civilians to trudge through the dangerous wilderness in orderly steps.

However, the high-level orcs had tough skin and tough flesh. They were born to survive in the wilderness and wilderness better than the Earthlings.

The rat people were the species that could withstand the most pain and torture among the high-level orcs.

Moreover, they were not ordinary rat people.

Those who were qualified to be oppressed in Black-corner City were all the best of the rat people.

On the way to Black-corner City, they had already undergone the trials of a long journey.

At that time, they were tied up in groups of ten. Under the threat of the whips and spears of the clan warriors, they were forced to cross the most dangerous terrain.

All the people who could not hold on any longer died.

Those who could survive until now believed that they had the blessing of the ancestral spirits and saw the hope of survival and the light of freedom.

Even if they had to climb dozens of kilometers, they would still have to reach their destination.

Besides, the two soldiers of the Great Horn Army who led them were also quite capable.

They were a pair of tall and short partners.

The tall ones had wrinkles all over their faces. They were silent, but they were good at long-distance marching.

Whether it was teaching people how to massage and bind their legs to reduce fatigue.

Or identifying the mud in the grass and the holes dug by wild beasts.

Or through the rustling of the grass, they could identify if there were dangerous totem beasts lurking nearby.

He was very familiar with them. He had the air of a veteran hunter. He was experienced and calm.

The short man, on the other hand, was very young. He had a smiling baby face. Although he was not as experienced as the old hunter, he could speak well. He was good at Reading Minds and encouraging morale.

In just a few dozen miles, he quickly became friends with everyone.
