Chapter 1311: Arrival Heartbreak
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Meng Chao felt that it was not necessarily a bad thing to let “Jackal” Kanus misunderstand that he was an official explorer sent by Dragon City.
He pondered for a moment and extended a finger.
“There is only one condition for you and me to put aside our past differences and cooperate sincerely, Wolf King.”
Meng Chao looked into the Wolf King’s eyes and said, “I don’t care how good your reason was to assassinate the Ancient Dream Saintess, or what kind of hidden difficulties you have. In short, since I saved her, I will never allow anyone to kill her in my hands!
“Also, when the Great Horn Army collapsed, a small group of remnant soldiers who were still loyal to the Ancient Dream Saintess broke through the southern part of the encirclement. I hope that you’ll let them go, Wolf King.
“Since the Wolf King wants friendship, I will give it to you. Please believe in me, Wolf King. I can be your most important friend, and I can also be your most terrifying enemy. I believe that neither you nor I want to see the situation after that!”
Meng Chao had the entire Dragon City behind him. Well, at least half of the Dragon City was supporting him, so he was naturally confident.
As for the condition that he offered, of course, it was not as simple as simply taking pity on the Ancient Dream Saintess from a moral standpoint.
No matter how flowery “Jackal” Kanus’ words were, Meng Chao would not believe him 100%, and he was even more unwilling to let him have 100% control over the entire Picturesque Orchid Lake region like in his previous life.
If he wanted to become the Turan King, he could. However, the condition was that Dragon City would tacitly allow Dragon City to plant a nail in Picturesque Orchid Lake first.
The Ancient Dream Saintess, Leaf, and other remnants of the Great Horn Army who had fled to the south were this nail.
“Sure!”
Perhaps, after weighing Meng Chao’s capabilities, the Wolf King knew that it would not be so easy to kill the Ancient Dream Saintess in Meng Chao’s hands.
Even if he could kill her by force to silence her, the price of provoking the mysterious and powerful “Dragon City Envoy,” Meng Chao, was something that the Wolf King was unwilling to bear.
The Wolf King did things with the grace of a quick knife cutting through a tangled mess. He did not care about what happened at all and simply nodded his head. “As I said before, Reaper, as long as you can help me seize the Holy Mountain’s inheritance and help me carry out the earth-shaking transformation in Picturesque Orchid Lake, then whether the Ancient Dream Saintess and a few remnant soldiers are alive or dead will not be too big of a problem.
“As long as you can take good care of the Ancient Dream Saintess and the remaining soldiers of the Great Horn Army and prevent them from falling into the hands of those vicious, stubborn wolves, tigers, and leopards, I really hope that I can have a few more rat brothers and sisters who can live well.
“Do we have a deal then?”
“Jackal” Kanus was full of smiles as he extended his hand with his claws curled up toward Meng Chao.
At that moment, the yellow crystal fruits that the two of them had just swallowed were almost completely digested.
The crisscrossed wounds on the two of them were healing at almost the same speed, and new, tender flesh was growing.
The originally dull and cracked skin was now filled, full, and filled with the luster of copper cast iron.
Their combat ability was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
They had recovered to a state where neither could do anything to the other. If they worked together, it would be a win-win situation, and if they split up, it would not be a win-win situation.
This time, Meng Chao no longer hesitated.
He held the Wolf King’s hand tightly.
The surging power that originated from the depths of their bloodlines was transmitted from their hearts to their palms. It then gushed out from their palms, colliding violently with the power that would surge out from the Doomsday Wolf in the future. It caused their limbs, bones, and internal organs to resonate with each other, releasing a thunderous sound.
The two narrowed their eyes again and quickly glanced at each other.
They were both extremely surprised in their hearts.
Although the Wolf King had been a grave robber since he was young, he had lived in a treacherous and dangerous vortex. He was simply filled with murderous intent and unspeakable secrets. Before this, no one had ever seen his most authentic side, even those who were about to be killed by him.
For example, Meng Chao, since his rebirth, had been carrying the mission of reversing the future and crushing doomsday. In the war between the Dragon City civilization and the monster civilization, in the game between the Red Dragon Army and the nine mega corporations, in the competition between the homestead faction and the colonization faction, the relationship between Dragon City and Picturesque Orchid Lake... On all aspects and complicated questions, he had to go alone.
Even when facing his parents, his little sister, Lu Siya, and Battle God Lei Zongchao, he never dared to reveal 100% of the cruel, dark, and desperate things in the deepest part of his heart.
However, when faced with this guy who they had only known for a day and whose identity, background, and experience were vastly different, the two of them felt that it was extremely absurd at the same time.
It was as if the other party could see through their hearts.
‘This is really weird. Why do I feel that “Jackal” Kanus is far more reasonable and friendly than the impression he left on the world in my previous life?’
Meng Chao frowned slightly. He was puzzled.
He tried his best to piece together the information about the Doomsday Wolf in the memory fragments of his previous life. ‘Although the “Jackal” Kanus in my previous life had extraordinary skills and talents, he launched wave after wave of thunderous and destructive attacks at the beginning of the war between worlds, which made his prestige in the Chaos faction reach its peak.
‘However, after the Chaos faction and the Holy Light faction entered a strategic stalemate, his fatal weakness in personality was exposed.
‘He was headstrong, arrogant, and delusional. He would rather jump into his own logical trap and indulge in a ‘victory report’ that did not exist at all. Even when the Holy Light Army was close to the city, he still dreamed of conquering all the other worlds with his ultimate counterattack.
‘At that time, not to mention the orc generals from Picturesque Orchid Lake, even his allies in the Chaos faction were not willing to discuss military affairs in the headquarters of the Doomsday Wolf.
‘Because every time they went to the headquarters of the Doomsday Wolf, they had to endure his saliva and thunderous roars. He could talk nonstop for hours until his weird logic of self-deception stunned all his subordinates and allies, as though he was a delusional maniac.
‘Oh right, I remember now!
‘It’s said that the Doomsday Wolf in my previous life left a last message before he died. There was only one sentence.
‘”This is impossible. There must be some mistake. I’m the savior!”
‘Hehe, he was still so self-righteous even at the end of his life. This guy is really unreasonable to the extreme.
‘It’s strange. Although the current “Jackal” Kanus is cunning and cruel, he doesn’t seem to be such a stubborn person. On the contrary, looking at how humbled himself, it seems like he’s uniting all the forces that can be united.
‘Is it because of his continuously rising strength and status that he gradually stripped off his disguise and revealed his true nature, or...
‘Did he obtain something that he couldn’t bear while he was gaining strength in the depths of the Holy Mountain temple?’
Meng Chao was still brooding over the “terrifying demon king.”
However, it was impossible for him to think of a perfect ending just by sitting there and letting his imagination run wild.
The two of them had already spent too much time killing Fusion Beasts, devouring yellow crystal fruits, and healing their injuries.
The Lion King and Tiger King’s troops could appear in front of their eyes or behind their butts at any moment.
Since they had regained their mobility, the two of them could only seize every second and continue to explore the depths of the ancient battlefield’s ruins along the cracks in the ground.
With the experience of sharing life and death together, they had temporarily solved their trust problem. After they had also vaguely agreed to a package cooperation agreement, their relationship became even more relaxed.
At the very least, they did not need to be on guard against each other anymore. They had been at daggers drawn and had placed 50% of their attention on each other.
At most, they only needed to use 30% of their energy to be on guard against each other now.
The communication between the two was naturally smoother.
Although they had many secrets that they could not easily share with others, it was still possible and necessary to talk about how to deal with the Lion King and Tiger King’s troops.
In the end, Meng Chao came up with several plans that made the Wolf King exclaim in excitement.
The tactics that the Wolf King threw out also made Meng Chao click his tongue in surprise. That was because, his tactics were practically something that he had thought of after thinking about it.
Both of them were eloquent from how to deal with the Lion King and Tiger King, to the gains and losses of the Great Horn Army in the months of battle.
Then, they talked about how to maximize the rat people’s potential. Earth’s history had long proved that slavery was never a system that maximized the value of intelligent life.
Compared with the dissatisfied slaves who could resist at any time, or the slaves who were insensitive and lacking subjective initiative, those free people who were willing to?inject themselves full of chicken blood1?and cry out that they will dedicate everything to a lofty goal can become the main force against the apocalypse.
Meng Chao had the memories of his previous life. Of course, he had accumulated a small amount of experience in how to help people fight for their freedom and also give free citizens a shot of adrenaline.
However, he did not expect the Wolf King to be so clear-minded when he talked about it. A lot of sparkling words and phrases had reached his heart.
After a round of conversation and heart-to-heart, the way the two of them looked at each other became exceptionally different.
The Wolf King could not wait to solve the problem at hand. He wanted to bring in the power behind Meng Chao, officially initiate cooperation and change, and draw a brilliant and colorful blueprint together.
Meng Chao was also extremely interested in the Earth mentor behind the Wolf King. The other party’s foresight was beyond all the Deity Realm experts in Dragon City, including Battle God Lei Zongchao. It had reached an astonishing level.
Time flew by in the exchange between the two.
The aftermath of the fierce battle between the Fusion Beasts seemed to have spread to the entire ancient battlefield’s ruins.
The totem beasts hiding in the depths of the ruins did not dare to jump out to meet their death.
The two were getting closer to the central area of the Holy Mountain’s summit.
It could be seen from the increasingly dense cracks on the ground and the increasingly fragile remains of the gigantic Angels of Slaughter.
The remains of many gigantic Angels of Slaughter looked like towering trees that reached into the clouds.
Before they could touch them, though, their feeble footsteps and the vibration of their vitality magnetic fields caused the “towering trees” to collapse and turn into the most delicate dust that danced in the wind.
It was enough to show that they were approaching the center of the explosion that was triggered by the crystal explosives and the giant magical rune arrays three thousand years ago, which almost destroyed the Holy Mountain temple.
