Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! Chapter 1081: The Blood Hoofs' Return

Chapter 1081: The Blood Hoofs' Return

The next half a day, Meng Chao and Ice Storm followed the same pattern and went to the locations of more than a dozen famous temples in Black-corner City.

They were all near the temples and caught the hooded elites who used the rat people's rebel army to attract the firepower of the clan warriors and sneakily invaded the temples.

They also used all kinds of methods to disrupt their actions and at the same time remind the clan warriors who were separated by a wall to notice the existence of these guys.

They could either throw a burning boulder in the temple's direction, just like at the Broken Rock Clan's temple.

If not, they could let Ice Storm condense the ice fog and summon the cold wind to bring down a hailstorm on the hooded elites' heads, or... 

They could ambush the clan warriors in the dark and lure them to the temple's vicinity and collide with the hooded elites.

Under the lead of the two, the elite teams formed by hooded elites and the furious clan warriors were caught off guard, and in an instant, the most tragic hand-to-hand combat broke out.

The rebel army, which was made up of the ignorant rat slaves, was given time to breathe and calm down. Under the guidance of a voice from somewhere in the depths of the crowd, they headed toward the escape route to the north.

The rebel army, including women and children, was no longer like headless flies injected with stimulants, ramming into the iron walls of the clan warriors, which were filled with spikes and swords.

Instead, they gradually evacuated to the underground through dozens of tunnel entrances in Black-corner City and escaped out of the city via the sewage pipes built thousands of years ago.

Meng Chao let out a slight sigh of relief.

For the time being, there was only so much he could do.

He hoped that the rat people, including Leaf, could successfully escape Black-corner City and the territory of the Blood Hoof Clan. Moreover, they would no longer be cannon fodder for the ambitious!

After sending away these rat people, Meng Chao still had his own things to do.

That was to collect more ancient weapons, armors and secret medicines.

Whether it was his or Ice Storm's totem armor, after being strengthened and upgraded by the temple's blue light, their storage s.p.a.ce had been greatly improved.

The supreme treasures in Blood Skull Temple had only filled half of the storage s.p.a.ce.

If they continued to challenge the higher level temples, they would not have the manpower, strength, and time.

However, if the hooded elites brought a large number of ancient weapons, armors, and secret medicines from the temple to the ground, they would not mind being the Oriole, quietly admiring the mantis catching the cicada.

Meng Chao was not in a hurry to make a move.

At the moment, the hooded elites still had a slight advantage.

The clan warriors left in Black-corner City were all old, weak, and disabled.

Otherwise, they would not have joined the battle group but gone to the Blood Hoof Legion outside the city instead to show the ancestral spirits their valor. They were not even qualified to receive blessings.

Moreover, they had consumed too much energy and spirit energy to face the fearless rebel army of the rat people.

Even the ordinary rat people who grew up in the mountains and picked mandrake fruits for a living were stronger than the ordinary citizens of Dragon City.

The ordinary citizens of Dragon City actually had physical fitness comparable to the Olympic champions from Earth.

Hundreds of extra-large "Olympic champions" rushed forward crazily while waving heavy stone axes and bone maces. They could always leave a few crisscrossed wounds on the exhausted clan warriors. Some of them even bit off a few pieces of flesh before the warriors died.

For the mission this time, the hooded elites had carefully prepared and practiced.

In order to make up for their lack of combat ability, before they excavated the temple, they had also found the armory left by the ancient Turan in the depths of Black-corner City, from which they had obtained a large number of spirit weapons.

They were the battle axes that Meng Chao had seen when he had snuck underground. The materials were crystal clear, and the sharp blades were glittering. The sharpness of the battle axes could be whistled out and shatter the targets silently by changing the molecular structure of the targets.

Inside the hooded cloaks, many people were holding such "shattered battle axes."

There were also battle hammers, swords, and daggers that were equipped with the same technology.

These weapons caught the clan warriors by surprise. They paid the price of having their tendons broken and bones broken, their intestines pierced, and their blood instantly shattered into a b.l.o.o.d.y mist.

However, the rage of their temples and even their ancestral spirits being desecrated seemed to have turned into magma and poured into the almost dry blood vessels of the clan warriors. It made them squeeze out the last bit of their strength even though they had lost too much blood, it was also the most violent power.

Even if they were to die, they would still press their tall, iron-tower-like bodies heavily onto the hooded elites' bodies to delay the other party's footsteps.

Under such persistent pestering, the hooded elites had indeed plundered many temples.

However, their plan to leave Black-corner City without anyone noticing with a large number of ancient weapons, armors, and secret medicines was completely foiled.

Both sides were still anxious.

There was no need for Meng Chao and Ice Storm to add fuel to the fire.

They were still waiting patiently...

Waiting for a better opportunity.

Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The deafening sound of iron hoofs could be heard from outside of Black-corner City.

The most elite vanguard of the dozens of Blood Hoofs had finally arrived at the city gates!

"The Blood Hoof Army has returned to the city!"

Meng Chao's spirits were roused, and he and Ice Storm turned their heads at the same time to look at the city gates.

Even if they could not see the figures of the elite warriors, just by looking at their soaring killing intent and the flames and smoke, one could tell just how furious they were during their most glorious days, how furious were the warriors who had suffered the greatest humiliation, and how terrifying their anger was!

If Meng Chao had not intervened, the chiefs, priests, and generals of the Blood Hoof Clan would probably still be in the dark.

They thought that what they were facing was just a simple rat riot.

If that was the case, they would probably regroup outside the city and slowly push forward. They would quell the riot one area at a time and restore order. They would also use the blood and internal organs of several dozen thousand rat people to lubricate their iron hoofs. That was the only way to quell their anger.

They would disrupt the organization, disperse their forces, and throw the troops that lacked communication and organizational skills into the city that was still burning and exploding. They would also be shrouded in thick smoke, and their vision would be extremely blurry, they would have to engage in street battles with the fearless fanatics?

Even the most reckless orc general would not give such an extremely stupid order.

This was also the plan of "using the rat tide to plunder all the temples in Black-corner City." It seemed to be a whimsical and even insane plan, but after thinking about it carefully, it actually had some feasibility.

Unfortunately, this little bit of feasibility was completely blocked by Meng Chao.

"Temple! Temple!"

When the vanguard of the b.l.o.o.d.y Hoof Army returned to Black-corner City and was about to open the formation and slowly advance...

A few clan warriors covered in wounds and blood had already stumbled out of the city.

They were the guards of the big families guarding the mansions and protecting the temple.

Many of them were familiar with the elite warriors of the leading force. Even if they could not recognize their battered faces, they could recognize the familiar voice.

"Someone has invaded the temple!"

They shouted at the top of their lungs, causing the expressions of many elite warriors to change drastically.

"Which temple?"

Immediately, some elite warriors stepped forward to help the temple guards who had run out of the city.

They did not care about checking the injuries of the temple guards. They grabbed their broken breastplates and shouted, "Which temple has been invaded?"

"All the temples!"

The temple guards took a deep breath and yelled in a voice that could tear their lungs. "All the temples in Black-corner City!"

This piece of news was like a bolt from the blue, and all the powerful elite warriors were stunned.

A moment later, someone flew into a rage and stomped on the ground with his iron hooves, creating deep pits and crisscrossing cracks.

There were also people who knelt on the ground and prayed to the ancestral spirit in fear and trepidation, begging the ancestral spirit to forgive these unworthy descendants for not protecting the temple properly.

There were even people who beat their chests and stomped their feet, grimacing in pain. The blood in their eyes almost turned into streaks of red lightning and shot out. They swore to the ancestral spirit the most vicious oath, that they would definitely find out the despicable and shameless intruders of the temple. They would tear off their heads and build a tower, squeeze out their blood, and flow down the tower to wash away the humiliation suffered by the ancestral spirit.

Now, even the most resourceful commander could not stop these furious and shouting elite warriors from rushing into Black-corner City in a chaotic manner. They were fighting in a street battle unprepared, without any plan or command.

Moreover, even the most resourceful commander had his own family and temple. He had also suffered unbearable humiliation. He could not wait to teleport into his own temple to stop the intruders from retrieving the divine weapon that was worshipped by his family and attached to their ancestral spirit.

Just like that, over a thousand elite warriors activated their totem battle armors and stomped hard with their feet. Like a human bomb, they drew a vicious parabola in the flames and thick smoke and crashed into Black-corner City amidst the mournful sound of rushing wind.

Originally, their target should have been the rebel army of the rat people who were still stuck in Black-corner City.

It was not an exaggeration to say that many of them had the ability to wield heavy battle sabers that were more than ten meters long. With just one charge, they could ma.s.sacre the entire street.

However, right now, they were so anxious that they did not care about the ordinary rat people who were wandering in front of them.

The ordinary rat people were just bugs.

The bugs could be trampled to death at any time.

But if the despicable temple raiders took the armor and weapons that their ancestors had used and escaped, how would they have the face to seize the supreme glory?

Thinking of this, the blood of the elite warriors was about to freeze and evaporate.

They jumped quickly between the burning ruins, pushing their speed to the limit, trying to rush back to their temples as soon as possible.

However, the continuous explosion of the biogas had severely damaged the topography of Black-corner City, making the city in front of them completely different from what they remembered.

The flames and thick smoke had greatly interfered with their vision, causing them to plunge into a chaotic maze.
