Meng Chao had no opinion about Big Buck's hobby.
He was just thinking about the possibility of robbing and interrogating Big Buck in Sugar House.
His conclusion was that it would be very difficult.
For understandable reasons, Sugar House's security was even tighter than the temple and the warehouse.
The soundproofing and anti-prying were also done flawlessly.
If he wanted to enter Sugar House to have fun, he needed to visit it multiple times and be recommended by trusted regulars.
As for the regulars, they were, of course, very secretive about their own habits.
No matter how Meng Chao disguised himself, it was impossible for him to blend into this small circle in just a few days.
Then, he could only attack Big Buck on his way to or from Sugar House.
The advantage was that there were a lot of places to ambush in the alleys.
As long as he broke Big Buck's throat, he would not have to worry about him making a sound. At the very least, he would have a few minutes to act.
The disadvantage was that on the way to or from Sugar House, Big Buck's vigilance would definitely be raised to the maximum.
It was not that he was afraid of being assassinated.
He was afraid of being seen.
Also, before the customers who visited Sugar House walked through the narrow door with cat ears, it was impossible for them to put their arms around each other's shoulders and show off their bravery loudly like they would in a "normal" brothel.
They usually hunched their necks, avoided eye contact, stuck close to the wall, and moved alone.
Even if they ran into each other in alleys, they would maintain a distance of three to five arms and would not make eye contact with people who shared the same interests.
In such an environment, it was practically impossible for Meng Chao to pretend to be Big Buck's acquaintance and kill him in one strike before he activated his totem armor.
Meng Chao drew a map of the area around Sugar House and found eleven hidden ambush spots.
But no matter which ambush spot he jumped from, there would be at least a distance of seven to eight arms between him and Big Buck.
With his fighting strength that had yet to recover from his injuries, it was impossible for him to cross that distance before Big Buck activated his totem armor.
Once Big Buck put on his totem armor …
His fighting strength would be above Meng Chao's.
Although Meng Chao was still confident that he could kill him …
It was impossible for him to capture him alive and interrogate him without alerting anyone.
In three days, Meng Chao came up with seven plans.
He simulated them 231 times in his mind.
The seven action plans had been updated more than ten times.
In the end, all the versions of the plans were rejected.
On the fourth day, he heard from the servant who was in charge of cleaning Big Buck's arena that Big Buck was involved in a conflict.
Fuses were a common sight in the arena.
It was nothing more than the audience being too boorish. They threw all kinds of dangerous items, including caltrops, onto the arena, and insulted the ancestors of the gladiators when they booed.
The audience stepped forward to stop the fight, but they still couldn't control the situation. Instead, their own anger burned even more fiercely. In the end, it turned into a chaotic battle among the audience.
There were two deeper reasons for this.
The first was the young warrior of the Ironhide Family, "Stinger". He had suffered a great loss in the arena set up by the Bloodhoof Family for the first time, causing the Ironhide Family to lose all face.
It had to be known that the Ironhide Clan and the Bloodhoof Clan, or even the Boar-People and Minotaurs, had been fighting for thousands of years for the sake of who was the boss of the Bloodhoof Clan.
Even though the Bloodhoof Family was now the number one family in the entire clan.
But there wasn't a single Boar Warrior who didn't want to step on the Minotaurs' horns and snatch the Bloodhoof Warthog that was fluttering in the wind.
The audience who had a conflict with Big Buck was a Boar-Person.
He was also a member of a vassal family of the Ironhide Family. He came from a Boar-People settlement called "Red Creek Town".
In the local area, he used the name of the Ironhide Family to do as he pleased and was used to being lawless.
Who would have thought that right after they responded to the Iron Skin Family's summons, the entire Red Creek Town's elites would come out in full force. When they arrived at Black Corner City, they would see "Stinger Iron Skin" badly mutilated, and even his Totemic Battle Armor shattered.
The "murderer", Hailstorm, who tore apart the "Million Steam Hammer", didn't officially join the Bloodhoof Family.
But she was still one of the four aces of the Blood Skull Arena.
Most of the audience had long regarded her as one of Casava Bloodhoof's people.
The young and energetic Boar Warriors who came from the local area were naturally filled with anger towards the members of the Bloodhoof Family.
And the other reason that inevitably led to the conflict was a coincidence.
This Boar-Person from Red Creek Town was coincidentally also called "Buck".
"Buck" meant "Machete".
It was both catchy and domineering.
To the high-level Beastmen who didn't have a rich vocabulary and imagination, it was a very popular name.
The problem was, when two "Bucks" met, especially when they had a conflict, things would become awkward.
As the saying went, "A mountain cannot hold two tigers".
The Turanians, who were always filled with anger and prepared for battle, found it hard to tolerate someone sharing the same glorious and domineering name as them.
Just like the adjudicator of the Blood Skull Arena, "Casava Bloodhoof," who used a few years to beat all the fellows with the name "Casava" until they were half dead or even all dead.
It was to ensure that no one with the same name existed in Blackhorn City.
Although Big Buck wasn't as domineering as Casava, it was impossible for him to kill all the "Bucks" gathered in Blackhorn City.
But when another "Buck" appeared in front of him and even had a conflict with him, it was destined that the two of them couldn't shake hands and had to fight it out.
This was the same for the Mr. Buck from Red Creek Town.
Hence, Big Buck Bloodhoof and Buck Red Creek, two Turanian gentlemen filled with courage and a sense of honor, staged a fair, harmonious, and sportsmanlike battle using the traditions of the Turanians.
To show respect for the good name "Buck" and to provoke both parties to go all out, they even bet a wrist guard from their respective Totem Battle Armors.
Now that things had escalated to this stage, the small conflict that was originally a common occurrence finally turned into a situation where it was difficult to back down.
In the end, Big Buck blasted Mr. "Boar Buck" from Red Creek Town off the arena with a punch and won a wrist guard from him.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Boar Buck didn't renege on the bet.
But things obviously didn't end there.
According to the odd-job workers, after this battle, Boar Buck from Red Creek Town felt that he had suffered a great humiliation and treated Big Buck as an irreconcilable enemy.
Every day, he would rub his palms together in the tavern, roaring loudly that he would take revenge and fight Big Buck in the arena again. This time, he would definitely win all of Big Buck's Totem Battle Armors.
The odd-job workers even heard that there were people who saw Wild Boar Buck smashing a table made of Mandala tree stumps after he was full of inferior liquor brewed from Mandala fruit shells. He discussed with his clansmen who were also from Red Creek Town that they were going to sneak attack Big Buck and snatch his full set of totemic armor.
The tavern that Boar Buck frequented was very easy to find.
His location was also very conspicuous.
In fact, he had never hidden his intention to seek revenge on Big Buck.
This was also the tradition of the Turanians.
If one lost to an opponent in any conflict, no matter how bruised one was, even if one's parents could not recognize one's face, the most important thing was not to heal, but to quickly shout loudly and let the entire Turanze know that one would take revenge sooner or later.
Otherwise, if the loser quietly slipped away without saying a word, others would only think that he was afraid of the winner, and he would never be able to raise his head again.
Losing was one thing, and being afraid was another.
Regardless of whether he could win or not, and whether he really wanted revenge, he had to say fierce words like "If you're so good, don't run, we'll see".
Even though he might not be able to do it even if he said fierce words ten times.
But Meng Chao still quickly came up with a brand new plan of action around this conflict.
For the next four days, he made preparations for the new plan.
He scouted the alleys, made deductions in the depths of his mind, mapped out Big Buck and Boar Buck's minds, sketched their personalities, and understood their relationships.
He also had to spy on and follow the people who went in and out of Sugar House.
They were not customers. Customers were very vigilant, and they usually had a certain amount of power and background. It was very difficult for him to find any openings within a short period of time.
Meng Chao mainly followed the manservants in Sugar House. They were the nice-looking rat people odd-job workers.
Compared to the customers, the manservants were much less vigilant.
No one would be interested in the aesthetic tastes of the rat people, who had lowly blood flowing in their veins.
For the daily operations of Sugar House, the manservants had to go to the market to buy all sorts of goods, dishes, and raw materials. The people they came into contact with were more complicated, and there was more space for them to move around.
It was the night before the new one-hundred-man team fight.
Meng Chao found the perfect solution for the 135th possible change in his plan of action.
He completed the final mental image of Big Buck.
He also obtained the final material he needed for his operation.
He also finished modifying and grinding the final tool.
It was a lancet with a hard texture, sharp edges, and serrated edges.
It could smoothly dissect tendons and muscles. In fact, it could even peel off complete neural networks.
It could also carve patterns on the sturdiest beast's skulls.
Also, he had figured out the most likely course of action for the two Mr. Bucks the next night.
Now, there was only one problem left.
What method should they use to obtain victory in tomorrow's hundred-man team battle?
