As for how to escape, the two of them had also repeatedly deduced.
Although the Blood Hoof Warriors were at the city gates, they were not able to completely surround the entire Blackhorn City.
With Meng Chao and Hailstorm's strength, they could swagger through the gaps that the Blood Hooves Warriors could not defend against and break out of the encirclement.
However, to figure out the truth behind the Chaos of Big Horn, Meng Chao insisted on escaping among the normal rat people.
Hailstorm did not care about the survival of the normal rat people.
But she clearly cared about Meng Chao's attitude.
Besides, she had been hiding from the night watchers and bounty hunters since she was young with her mother, who was a witch. She was not unfamiliar with how to hide, change her appearance, and turn into a completely different person.
Coincidentally, they had attacked dozens of temple thieves and Blood Hooves Warriors.
Apart from ancient weapons, armors, and secret medicines, there was also a large amount of food, extremely practical tools, and strange raw materials.
Many of the temple thieves carried tools and materials that could be used to disguise themselves.
Using these things, Hailstorm soon dyed her signature crystalline skin the grayish-white color commonly seen among the rat people.
Moreover, there was a short and small tail that could be controlled by the tailbone and buttocks muscles, and it could be swung around.
Then, she stuck a few tufts of hair around her clear facial features to hide the face that was familiar to quite a number of people.
Meng Chao changed the color of his hair and eyes.
Then, he stuck two thick fangs in his mouth so that his lips curled up and destroyed the balance of his facial features.
He vaguely remembered that in his previous life, the instructor of the Black Skull Training Camp had once said that there were two main ways to change one's appearance.
Of course, it would be best if they were exquisitely sculpted and transformed into a completely ordinary appearance.
If he was pressed for time and had limited materials, he could not completely change his appearance. Then, he would create a very distinct feature.
Things like big and small eyes, rosacea, big ears, buck teeth, and huge freckles on the wings of his nose.
It would attract other people's attention so that they would ignore the other problems on his face.
This could be considered a rather practical little trick.
Aside from that, once Meng Chao and Hailstorm reached the level of strength, they would have precise control over every muscle, every joint, every blood vessel, and even every cell in their body.
He slightly contracted his muscles, twisted his joints, and made his body grow taller or shrink.
Then, through the filling and collapse of the facial muscles, the position of the facial features was fine-tuned.
These were all routine operations, as natural as eating and drinking.
After this disguise and adjusting the rhythm of his breathing and heartbeat, he restrained his battle flames and killing intent to the limit.
The Totem Armor also turned back into a liquid metal-like substance and disappeared without a trace.
At first glance, the two of them were no different from the ordinary rat people that could be seen everywhere in the chaotic Blackhorn City.
After all, the "rat people" itself was not a biological concept. Instead, they were the collective of the weak and failures among all the high-level orcs who were enslaved, oppressed, and stripped of all dignity.
The rat people who had dozens or even hundreds of different bloodlines in their bodies were not strange at all.
Many of the rat people fought back under the stimulation of the Great Horned Rat God's Descent. They tried to use their weapons, warhammers, bone clubs, and stone axes to slaughter their way out.
The rat people warriors who had luckily survived the fierce battle against the Blood Hoof Warriors had unknowingly stimulated the hidden potential in the deepest part of their bloodline as they traversed through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Gradually, they became wrapped in battle flames and murderous intent.
Even if Meng Chao and Hailstorm wanted to hide themselves, they were not as eye-catching as the rat people!
The two of them sized up each other, but they could not find too many openings.
So, they quietly headed to the center of Blackhorn City, where the flames were the fiercest and the smoke was the thickest. It was also the area where the battle was the most chaotic.
Along the way, they ran into a few Blood Hooves Warrior squads who were searching for them with bloodshot eyes.
There was no telling whether the Bloody Hoof Warriors were searching for a temple thief who had a lot of loot in his arms, or a Bloody Hoof Warrior who had a lot of loot in his arms but was slightly weaker than them, and it would be best if he was from a hostile family.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, the two of them did not take the initiative to provoke the Blood Hooves Warrior squads.
They only left some clues, such as slightly heavier breathing, the sound of them stepping on burnt wood, or intentionally stimulating the ancient weapons in their pockets to release incredibly sharp totem power to attract the attention of the Blood Hooves Warrior squads.
Then, they successfully lured five Blood Hooves Warrior squads to the same area.
The two of them left a few scraps of ancient weapons or totem armors and injected a few streams of spiritual energy into them, making them glitter like fireflies in a dark night. Then, they snuck out of the area without a sound.
Soon, Meng Chao and Hailstorm heard the sounds of intense fighting and exasperated roars behind them.
By the looks of it, five Blood Hooves Warrior squads from different families were having a heated discussion about who the loot belonged to.
Meng Chao and Hailstorm repeatedly used similar methods to successfully divert the attention of dozens of Blood Hooves Warrior squads. They passed through the center of Blackhorn City without any danger and arrived at the north of the city.
The chaotic situation here made the two of them frown slightly.
Meng Chao had originally determined that there were a lot of secret tunnels hidden underground in the north of the city that could lead to the exit of Blackhorn City.
The mastermind behind the "Descent of the Great Horned Rat God" had planned to use these tunnels to transport the young and strong rat people out to form their own cannon fodder squad.
It was also the "Great Horned Army" that shocked all of Turanze in his previous life.
So, as long as they ran to the north of the city, it would not be difficult for them to find a way to escape.
But he did not expect that his involvement would cause a chain reaction.
First, under his guidance, the Great Horned Rat God's envoys successfully blocked the loopholes in the organization's structure and the flaws in the implementation of the plan.
The scale and intensity of the methane chain explosion in this world was a hundred times greater than the riot in Black Horn City in his previous life.
This incited the fury of the Bloodhoof Warriors a hundredfold. Without caring about anything else, they sent even more troops into the chaotic Blackhorn City.
Secondly, many of the normal rat people were going to die in Black Horn City according to the plan. They were going to be cannon fodder to attract the attention of the Blood Hooves Warriors.
Only the sacrifice of a large number of cannon fodder could allow the temple thieves to successfully escape Black Horn City.
However, with Meng Chao's reminder, a large number of normal rat people came to a realization. They no longer fought to the death against the Blood Hooves Warriors who were guarding their mansions, granaries, and armory. Instead, they surged to the north of the city.
Based on what the "Great Horned Rat God's envoys" said, they came to save all the rat people in Black Horn City.
The elites of the rat people, who had been carefully selected and could be considered strong, naturally couldn't just watch the other rat people stay in Black Horn City and wait for death.
If they left, they would leave together. If they stayed, they would stay together.
This was the simplest belief of the elite rat people, who had been stirred up by the series of "miracles".
Even though the escape tunnels under Black Horn City were mostly underground transportation routes built by the ancient Turanze people thousands of years ago.
To transport large weapons and facilities, the underground tunnels were built to be extremely wide.
Under the lead of the Rat God's envoys, after months of digging day and night, all the collapsed and blocked nodes were reopened.
However, tens of thousands of rat people surged in from all directions. For a period of time, it still exceeded the maximum capacity of the underground tunnels.
They blocked the entrances and exits of the tunnels.
Without half a day's work, it would be difficult for all the rat people to escape into the underground tunnels.
At this time, the Blood Hooves Warriors also arrived.
Even though most of the Blood Hooves Warriors went to catch the temple thieves with their loot.
Not many people were willing to eat the bones of the normal rat people, which had no profit.
When they ran into the normal rat people who were lost in groups of two or three, unless they happened to be blocking the way, the high and mighty clan masters did not bother to waste time on them.
But there were too many rat people gathered in the north of the city.
There were so many that even a blind person could tell that there was something strange about this place.
A few Blood Hooves Warrior squads who were dedicated to their duties finally noticed the abnormality here. They changed their direction and charged at the crowd.
The rat people crowded on the narrow streets were too densely packed.
They were so densely packed that when the Blood Hooves Warriors charged, they could trample a bloody path in the crowd.
And every time they swung their warhammers and axes, they could easily send seven or eight or even more than ten rat people flying.
This allowed the Blood Hooves Warriors' desire to kill to be greatly satisfied, and they fully experienced the pleasure of fighting against thousands.
And under the stimulation of this pleasure, they continued to strengthen and upgrade their killing intent.
Meng Chao and the ice storm alone saw that within a short period of time, hundreds of rat people had died tragically under the Blood Hooves Warriors' charge.
There were even more rat people who died or were injured when they trampled on each other because their formation was shaken and their organization was in disarray.
But since there was too little space for them to move about freely among the broken walls.
And the Blood Hooves Army did not have enough manpower to send to the battlefield in the north of the city.
Besides, the flames and smoke blocked the information on the battlefield, so the orders outside the city could not be sent into the city effectively. The Blood Hooves Warriors in the city did things their own way and even fought against each other.
For the time being, the Blood Hooves Warriors could not completely penetrate the rat people's volunteer army.
And the rat people's volunteer army was not completely powerless to fight back.
Many of the rat people had activated the killing skills hidden in the deepest parts of their blood during the fierce battle for half a day. They also understood the principle that when there were enough ants, they could kill an elephant.
Even if the Rat God's messengers who lurked among them did not intend to take away all the rat people, they could only grit their teeth and fight with all their might when everyone was in a mess and could not be separated from each other. They were forced to live and die together.
The Blood Hooves Warriors, who had been stimulated by their desire to kill, had unknowingly entered too deep into the rat people's ranks. Soon, they were ambushed from all directions by fearless enemies.
And the Rat God's messengers attacked them.
