Chapter 972: The Mystery of the Battle Armor

Chapter 972: The Mystery of the Battle Armor

The evolution and mutation that happened to the sole survivor pushed the already boiling atmosphere around the arena to the peak of fanaticism, especially when the rat citizen in armor forcefully cut off the head of the totem beast and raised the head of the commander high in the air, letting out an angry roar.

The entire audience stood up and used all their strength to applaud and cheer for him.

Meng Chao heard that many of the audience even seriously thought of a new name for this unknown rat citizen. Was it more impressive to call him “Pig Slayer” or “Pig Killing Knife?”

The atmosphere of wholeheartedly enjoying the fight made Meng Chao absent-minded.

By the standards of Earthlings, advanced orcs were a group of very strange fellows.

The clan warriors had a cruel and cold side to them. They could mercilessly plunder all the mandala fruits that the entire village depended on.

If the villagers did not comply, they would wipe out the entire village.

The weak rat people were not treated as their compatriots or even their lives. They were purely tools or fuel. They were only fit for the dungeon, the foundry workshop, the construction site, and the cannon fodder army, the last drop of oil deep in their marrow would be squeezed dry.

They would not even spare the rats’ bodies. They would literally be cut into thousands of pieces and sacrificed to the sacred ancestral spirits.

They would be so ruthless even to their own blood relatives and even their children.

The children who were born weak and could not pass the coming of age ceremony would be abandoned by the warriors of the clan without any hesitation. They would be branded as rats and sent to the foundries or even exiled to the edge of Picturesque Orchid Lake, they would be left to fend for themselves.

However, when the rat people showed strength and courage that did not match their status, they could cheer for him from the bottom of their hearts and accept him without any ill feelings, becoming one of their “own people.”

Meng Chao simply could not imagine what kind of drastic changes had happened during the development of Picturesque Orchid Lake’s civilization to evolve such a bizarre social form and moral law.

Or perhaps, all of this was designed by the creator of the advanced orc from the very beginning?

However, what was the purpose of such a design?

Well, compared to the thousands of strange alien races in the depths of the memory fragments of his previous life, the advanced orcs were not the most bizarre one.

Meng Chao was only concerned now, “Lady Ice Storm, as long as we kill the totem beast, can we seize the armor that is naturally hidden in the totem beast’s body?”

“For the rats who have nothing, this is the most reliable method.”

Ice Storm said, “Although it is possible to seize its battle armor in the wilderness by hunting and killing the totem beast, but because the totem power is extremely violent and unstable, the rats who absorb the battle armor privately usually do not have a good ending, and will be backfired by the totem power.

“Only in the arena, after going through the training of the warriors of the clan and receiving the healing of the witch doctor and the casting of the priest, can the totem power and the body of flesh and blood be completely integrated.”

As expected, Meng Chao saw four witch doctors wearing seven-colored feathers and giant masks made of ebony, white bones, and a broken cell phone leap onto the arena.

They first surrounded the lucky guy in totem armor, dancing and chanting.

It was as if they were thanking their ancestors for their protection.

They then used four huge brushes and dipped them in a light golden secret medicine that was even more viscous than honey. They carefully smeared it on the lucky guy’s body and sealed his wound.

They then let the lucky guy directly swallow a whole jar of steaming medicinal liquid.

Then, the two witch doctors danced again.

The other two witch doctors deftly dissected the corpse of the totem beast and pulled out the bones with natural patterns. Then, they stuck their entire head and arm into the cavity of the totem beast and fumbled for a long time, finally, they took out the “core” that grew at the end of the spine and wound around the spinal cord and blood vessels.

Meng Chao estimated that it was just like the “cargo worship” that was performed in the treatment room just now.

Although the exaggerated performances of the witch doctors had superstitious and ritualistic factors, it was still scientific.

At the same time, it also contained certain scientific principles.

At the very least, the two secret medicines that were applied externally and taken internally would definitely help the liquid metal to quickly and steadily fuse into the body of flesh and blood.

“Right…”

Meng Chao suddenly thought, “There is only one survivor in this battle, so he has obtained all the totem power. But if there are two survivors, what will happen?”

“Usually, this kind of situation doesn’t happen. Before the gladiators appear, the adjudicators will first adjust the number of gladiators according to the strength of the totem beasts and gladiators, to ensure that both sides are evenly matched. They must fight until the last drop of blood before it is possible to decide the winner.”

Ice Storm said, “It is already very fortunate that one gladiator can survive. It is very rare for two survivors to appear.

“Even if it really does appear, the totem power will choose the braver and stronger one, the one that causes fatal damage to the totem beast, to become its new master.”

Meng Chao raised his eyebrows high.

Ice Storm’s words revealed a very important piece of information.

A liquid metal creature that could freely transform and condense into totem battle armor possessed a certain degree of intelligence. It could evaluate and choose its master, or… its host!

“Anyone can enter the arena and challenge the totem beast?” Meng Chao asked with some anticipation.

Ice Storm knew what he was thinking.

Although this black-haired black-eyed fellow was both annoying and dangerous, under the circumstances where he had rejected Casanova Bloodhoof and provoked the Ironhide Clan.

His strength didn’t do him any harm.

Therefore… Ice Storm patiently explained, “Not everyone can enter the arena—this is only the weakest totem beast, not even a “team level.” It is specially used to screen the rats and underage clan warriors.

“If an adult clan warrior who already has totem armor chooses such a weak existence as his opponent, wouldn’t he be laughed at by the entire clan?”

The power division system of advanced orcs was very simple and crude.

Whether it was orcs or totem beasts, they were all divided into three levels: team level, gang level, and group level.

According to Meng Chao’s analysis, they were roughly equivalent to the Earth, Heaven, and God levels of Dragon City.

Below the major levels, there were no sub-levels, let alone the unique changes and signs of different levels.

The basis for distinguishing strength was only one word, fight!

To be able to beat the entire battle team until their faces were bruised and swollen, one was a battle team level powerhouse.

To be able to suppress a battle gang of five to eight hundred people, one was a battle team level powerhouse.

To be able to make the entire battle team tremble in front of you, one was a peerless battle team level powerhouse.

As for the level above the battle team, it was just like the “existence beyond the Deity Realm in Dragon City.”

Theoretically, it was possible to break through, but it had never been heard of in reality.

After all, in the military establishment of the Turan civilization, the smallest Legion had several legions under its jurisdiction, and the number of people easily exceeded 100,000.

Even the strongest of the five clans, the ultimate existence who was crowned as the war chief, did not dare to say that they could contend against the entire Legion of 100,000 people by themselves.

Of course, among the rat people, not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry had the right to fight for the ‘Totem Power’.

Totem beasts were a scarce resource.

There was no mastermind behind the beast horde of Picturesque Orchid Lake. All the totem beasts were just wandering soldiers.

In a one-on-one situation, they were simply not a match for advanced orcs, especially in the past half a century’s prosperous era, the number of advanced orcs had increased crazily, destroying the natural environment that totem beasts relied on to survive.

As a result, there were fewer and fewer totem beasts in the wild.

Therefore, the five major clans had issued a hunting ban, forbidding the rat people from killing ordinary wild beasts at will, thereby destroying the food chain of the totem beasts.

In such a situation, if a rat without any background went on stage and killed the totem beast, after seizing the ‘totem power’, he would be ready to leave immediately. Wouldn’t it be a great loss to provide the power of the totem beast?

Therefore, if one wanted to participate in the competition, they had to be appreciated by a certain family first. They had agreed that once they seized the totem power, they would carry out the Blood Bestowing Ceremony and completely cut off the connection with the past, after becoming a part of the new family, they would treat the ancestral spirits of the new family as their ancestors and fight for the glory of the new family.

Only then would they have the qualifications and resources to possess the totem armor.

Meng Chao could now be considered one of Ice Storm’s men.

The problem was that Ice Storm herself was an outsider and a free gladiator. She did not have the support of the family behind her.

If she was willing to join the Blood Hoof Clan, everything would be fine. Meng Chao could also bask in the glory.

But whether it was Ice Storm or Meng Chao, they could not be reduced to vassals of Casanova or pawns of the Blood Hoof Clan.

Meng Chao understood.

The reason was similar to Dragon City.

In Dragon City, if the humble scions were willing to sign a contract with the nine super companies after they had made their debut, they would certainly receive a lot of training resources, as well as the convenience of competitions, upgrades, and employment, such equipment as nano combat suits and power armors would not be a problem.

However, if they wanted to be self-employed and start their own businesses, they would have to rely on themselves for everything, whether it was genetic potions or spirit weapons.

He put aside the thought of participating in the battle and seizing the “totem power,” and asked again, “It seems that what I took from the body of the totem beast was not a full set of armor, but only fragments of the armor?”

“Of course, the totem armor is such a powerful divine weapon. If even the weakest totem beast has a full set of armor in its body, how bad would it be?”

Ice Storm told Meng Chao that unless it was an extremely rare Battle Group level totem beast.

Otherwise, the totem power in the body of most totem beasts would not be able to condense into a full set of armor that covered every inch of their skin.

To be able to condense into a few pieces of armor and strengthen specific limbs and organs was already pretty good.

In fact, the vast majority of totem warriors had embarked on a long journey in such a “broken armor form.”

Only battle-hardened trump cards like Ice Storm or the likes of Casanova and Poison Stinger, who had pure bloodlines and had gone through the coming of age ceremony, would be able to obtain a full set of totem armor.
