The mask of the Ancient Dream Saintess continued to peel off.
A face full of confusion was revealed from behind the black hole.
“I don’t understand.”
She muttered, “What does wanting to seize the supreme power of Picturesque Orchid Lake have to do with secretly supporting the Great Horn Army?”
“Of course it has to do with it. Have you ever heard of a phrase called ‘the King’s vanguard?’”
Meng Chao said, “Ever since the era of the great extinction order 3,000 years ago, the Liger and tiger clans have ruled the gold clan and even the entire Tulanze for far too long. They, who have always been in control of the power, have been constantly expanding. As a result, the balance of power in Tulanze has gradually become unbalanced. The various powerhouses and ambitious families who are dissatisfied with the Liger and tiger clans have also increased day by day.
“Including the Minotaurs and wild boars of the Blood Hoof clan, the heroes and heroes of the various clans all want to replace the position of the Lion and tiger clans in the new era of glory and become the war chief who commands tens of millions of high-level orcs!
“However, it’s easier said than done to shake the order that the lion and tiger clans have ruled for 3,000 years?
“Relying on the war profits plundered in the previous era of Glory, the Lion and Tiger clans have gone further and further on the path of ‘the strong will always be strong’. As a result, it’s impossible for the minotaurs, wild boars, and the various powerhouses to seize the highest power openly through the five clans’competition.
“Since conventional methods won’t work, the only way to replace the Liger and tiger clans is to take risks and destroy the current order of Tu Lanze with unconventional methods!
“However, destroying the old order will cost a lot. Throughout the history of TU Lanze and the land of holy light over the past ten thousand years, the destroyers of the old order and the builders of the new order are often not the same force.
“The destroyer of the old order often uses up all his strength on the journey of rising up and fighting back to perish together with the old order. He has no ability to pick the final fruit of victory at all.
“This logic is just like when a battle breaks out, the vanguard soldiers who charge at the front are often the first to die heroically. Even if his side wins the final victory, it is impossible for him to come back from the dead and enjoy the glory brought by victory.
“To put it bluntly, this is what happens when a general succeeds.
“And the ambitious person hiding behind the ‘Big Horn Rat God’is obviously unwilling to sacrifice himself in order to destroy the Old Order.
“Moreover, other than the ambitious, dense schemes, and the war resources that he discovered by chance, it is very likely that he does not have the deep-rooted, dominating forces like the Tauren and the wild boar man. Instead, he must be a man with his tail tucked between his legs and dance in shackles under the eyes of the Lion and tiger clans.
“Therefore, he needs a stepping stone, a scapegoat, a well-trained vanguard, and a sharp blade that he can control remotely to achieve his goal of ‘destroying the old order without anyone knowing.’.
“The Great Horn Army is such a stepping stone, a scapegoat, a vanguard, and a sharp blade that can be controlled remotely. That’s why he’s willing to give up all the war resources on you. Anyway, these war resources are under the eyes of the Lion and tiger clans, so he can’t use them personally. It’s better to invest in you for the time being so that he can take a chance to make a huge profit.
“By the time you have perfectly fulfilled your mission of ‘destroying the old order’, this ambitious person who planned everything in the dark will naturally have the greatest chance to take advantage of the chaos in Tu Lanze and become the creator and guardian of the New Order. He will be the ultimate winner!”
The ancient Dream Saintess was silent for a long time.
She seemed to have been disturbed by Meng Chao’s endless speculation.
The black mist around her rose and fell like black flames.
It showed that her heart was swaying and hesitating like the flames in a wild wind.
“This is impossible. Who is the ambitious person you are talking about?”
The ancient dream saintess murmured, “Who is it that is able to plan such an earth-shaking conspiracy under the eyes of the Lion and tiger tribes?”
Meng Chao hesitated for a moment.
He knew that without any evidence, he would not be trusted by the Saintess of the ancient dream if he hesitated at all.
He gritted his teeth, “If there is a granary full of mandala fruits right now, who has the best motive to throw a batch of hungry rats into the granary and support the rat tribe to reproduce and expand in secret? It would be best if they could make a big fuss?
“The cat living next to the granary, of course!
“If there were no rats in the granary, the owner would not have thought of asking the cat to guard the granary, nor would he have raised the cat to be fat and strong enough to kill the rats.
“And the more rats there are in the granary, the more space and importance the cat can increase its activity.
“Whether it is to ask for benefits from the owner, or to enrich his own pocket under the pretext of eliminating the rats, or even to ‘accidentally’trigger a fire and ‘burn’a large number of mandala fruits in the process of killing the rats, but in fact, eat the mandala fruits into his stomach and evolve himself from a cat into a tiger — these are all things that are difficult to monitor and investigate.
“If the great horn army is the Rat in the granary, who is the cat now?
“Of course, it is the Wolf clan that is encircling the great horn army!
“Therefore, yes, I am willing to bet everything with you. I will sneak into the depths of your brain and plant false memories, creating the ‘Great Horn Rat God’and even the ‘great horn army’out of nothing. The one who destroyed the Old Order of Tulanze is the leader of the Wolf clan, ‘Jackal’Kanus!”
The name ‘Jackal’kanus stunned the ancient Dream Saintess who had lost all her masks.
This was because, in today’s tulanze, compared to the strongest experts of the lion and tiger clans, and even the heroes of the Blood Hoof clan, the Thunder clan, and the Darkmoon clan.., ‘Jackal’Kanus was truly an insignificant character.
Everyone knew that he was merely a puppet of the lion and tiger clans.
And this puppet didn’t perform well in the Battle of commanding the Wolf Clan’s army to encircle and annihilate the great horn legion.
The successive defeats not only caused the wolf clan to lose soldiers and generals, but also made the Wolf Clan Warriors lose face.
Although the specific battles were led by those arrogant and unruly wolf clan elders and generals.
But this nominally Wolf King clearly didn’t show any ability to turn the tide, causing people to change their stereotypical impression of the wolf king.
Of course, it was this mediocre performance that made the Liger and tiger clans feel at ease with Kanus.
After all, the Wolf clan was the largest predatory clan in the entire Turanze.
Although the individual combat strength of the Wolf Warriors wasn’t as strong as the warriors of the Liger and tiger clans.
However, the absolute advantage in numbers made no chief, general, or priest of the Liger and tiger clans dare to ignore the potential or threat of the Wolf clan.
“Use all means to weaken the Wolf Clan”had always been the strategy of the Liger and tiger clans for the past 3,000 years.
“Jackal”kanus had brought such a mission and parachuted into the Wolf clan to be the “Wolf King”in name only.
Thus, even though the great horn army had been dealing with the various heavy troops of the Wolf clan for more than a month before this.
The ancient Dream Saintess had never treated canus the jackal as an enemy worthy of her attention.
In fact, canus the jackal did indeed have a very weak presence in the series of fierce battles.
The ancient Dream Saintess’direct opponents were usually the commanders of the Wolf Clan’s battle groups, the infamous big shots of the Wolf clan.
According to the information obtained from the captives, they seemed to have joined forces to take over canus the jackal. They only allowed the nominal wolf king to command the second-line troops made up of the old, weak, and disabled, they carried out harassment, blockade, and reconnaissance missions outside the area occupied by the Great Horn Army.
And this wolf king, who only had a superficial appearance, seemed to be quite self-aware. He really did not dare to interfere with the specific military affairs of the Wolf Clan’s leaders, allowing them to do as they pleased.
These thoughts flashed through the depths of the ancient Dream Saintess’mind.
Her face immediately revealed intense suspicion and distrust.
“Do you think that ‘Jackal’Kanus didn’t appear in this battle at all? How could he possibly plan and manipulate everything in the Dark?”Meng Chao immediately sensed the intense suspicion of the ancient Dream Saintess.
The ancient Dream Saintess silently agreed.
“You’re wrong. In fact, ‘Jackal’Kanus had already appeared in this battle long ago. Moreover, he left his mark in every fierce battle where the Great Horn Army and the Wolf Clan’s battle group met. However, the mark he left was too obvious, so obvious that it was actually ignored by everyone.”
Meng Chao said calmly, “Gu Meng Saintess, I hope that you can think about one thing carefully.. After the Great Horn Army charged into the golden clan’s territory and encountered the Wolf Clan’s encirclement, wouldn’t the series of battles be a little too smooth? “If it wasn’t for someone who was familiar with the Wolf clan’s internal affairs and could even interfere with the Wolf clan’s strategy to a certain extent, helping the great horn army in the dark, how small would the chance of the newly formed Great Horn Army obtaining a series of victories be?”
