"So, I need to be qualified to be a slave and cannon fodder?"
Meng Chao nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask, "When you sold those children to the major forces in Black Horn City as slaves and scavengers, there had to be middlemen and buyers, right? Give me a few names. "
Big Buck did not hesitate.
He said more than ten names in one go.
They were all people in charge of selling and distributing slaves in Black Horn City.
There were also many famous people among them.
Of course, only one of them was from the Bloodhoof Family.
The rest were from the Iron Skin Family and other competitors.
His brain was in so much pain that he started to hallucinate. He even began to delightfully fantasize about how wonderful it would be when the powerful and domineering Ironskin Family fell into the hands of this black-haired, black-eyed monster.
Meng Chao had a general understanding of the situation in Cailuo Village.
Through reading and analyzing the microexpressions, he determined that Big Buck was not lying.
Next was the problem of the Totem Armor.
"I noticed that when I strangled your neck just now, your Totem Armor first tried to resist. The liquid metal wanted to flow under the chain and solidify into a neck guard.
"They even rushed into the seven bloody holes I made in an attempt to seal and repair them.
"In other words, the Totem Armor wanted to help you.
"However, when I exerted more and more strength, to the point where I almost broke your neck, the totemic armor cracked on its own and broke open.
"What's going on here?"
This question made Big Buck hesitate for a moment.
Meng Chao snorted coldly. He grabbed Big Buck's scabbed wound with a pair of forceps and tore it.
"Ahhhhh!"
Big Buck let out an inhuman scream.
Because his throat was trembling too violently, the swollen area ruptured and he spat out a large amount of blood.
"I'll talk, I'll talk, I'll talk!"
Through the bronze mirror, he could see the bloody wound clearly.
Even the Turan Warriors, who were made of iron and cast of bronze, could not withstand the intense sensory stimulation.
Big Buck said with a sobbing tone, "Because I'm afraid! Because I'm afraid of you and death! I'm a coward, a coward who's afraid of death! "
"Oh?"
Meng Chao said with interest, "As long as you're afraid, the Totem Armor will … leave you?"
"No, it's not just fear."
Big Barker said in a trembling voice. "At that time, my hands and feet were bitten by a beast trap, and my body was riddled with seven bloody holes by you. My neck was almost snapped, and I was in a state of near death. Afterwards, I was filled with extreme fear, and I almost lost my will to fight.
"That's why the Totem Battle Armor decided that I was no longer fit to be its master. That's why it took the initiative to disintegrate from my body."
"I see."
Meng Chao nodded. "What if a totem warrior is fearless? Let's say that a totem warrior, who is covered in wounds and on the verge of death, is still full of glory and fighting spirit in the face of a strong enemy that he can never defeat, and his fighting spirit soars to the highest level. In such a case, will the totem armor leave him? "
"That won't happen."
Big Barker shook his head. "If that's the case, he will activate the Totem Battle Armor's strongest form and its most terrifying combat power, and engage in the final, most magnificent battle.
"Only when he dies in battle will the Totem Battle Armor be analyzed from his body, and it will gather his killing intent and fighting spirit. It's as if his soul is wrapped around it, and it will become even stronger."
"I understand now. If that's the case, I think that the Totem Battle Armor is very intelligent. It can sense its master's thoughts, and it will make the choice that suits its master the best. If the master is afraid of death, the Totem Battle Armor will leave him. If the master wants to fight to the end, the Totem Battle Armor will not leave him, and it will help the master burn away all his life force in an instant. It's like a living creature that can think."
Meng Chao picked up the fragment of the Totem Battle Armor that originally belonged to Big Barker, and he held it in his hand. "Also, I noticed that the Totem Battle Armor is much lighter than I imagined.
"I originally thought that it was some sort of metal, but even the lightest metal seems to be heavier.
"How did this material, which is neither metal nor wood, possess such powerful offensive and defensive abilities, and can even activate such an inconceivable 'characteristic'? Do you know the answer?"
"The Totem Battle Armor is a gift from the ancestral spirits. Of course it's filled with inconceivable power."
Big Barker was in so much pain that he broke out in cold sweat. His voice trembled as he said, "I-I'm just a small 'squad level' warrior. How would I dare to pry into the secrets of the ancestral spirits?"
"Ancestral spirits, ancestral spirits, looks like you really attribute everything to the ancestral spirits. You're prepared to sleep for another ten thousand years on the inheritance of the ancestral spirits," Meng Chao said.
"The majestic Black Corner City can also be said to have been created by the ancestral spirits. The complicated and highly efficient underground sewage pipe system can also be said to have been designed by the ancestral spirits. All sorts of mysterious and unfathomable medicines and powerful weapons can also be said to have been created by the ancestral spirits.
"Did you know that when I wandered around the Blood Skull Arena, I actually discovered a design similar to an elevator shaft between the floors? An elevator shaft!
"I was surrounded by taurens with stone axes, boar-people with morningstar hammers, and centaurs with bows and arrows, and I suddenly saw an elevator shaft. Can you imagine how dumbfounded I was at that time?
"Needless to say, these elevators are the crystallization of the ancestral spirits' wisdom.
"Looks like your ancestral spirits have indeed created a brilliant civilization in the past, but for some reason, their unfilial descendants have turned into a group of beasts who only know how to fight and enslave the weak!"
Big Barker did not know what an elevator shaft was.
He was just terrified by Meng Chao's suddenly fierce killing intent.
"You're going off topic."
Meng Chao had limited time, and he was not interested in discussing the problem of civilization stagnating or even regressing with this tauren. He returned to the topic at hand. "Since the Totem Battle Armor is so light, why don't you wear it all the way? If you wait to activate it during a fight, won't you need to spend some time? When elites fight, life and death can be decided in an instant. If you're heavily injured or even killed by the enemy before you activate the Totem Battle Armor, just like what happened just now, wouldn't that be a huge injustice? "
"No one can wear the Totem Battle Armor all the time."
Big Barker did not dare to think about why this black-haired and black-eyed monster did not even know about this kind of common sense. He answered honestly, "When the Totem Battle Armor is activated, it consumes a lot of spirit energy. No matter how strong a totem warrior is, it's impossible for him to wear it day and night."
"Makes sense. It's only natural that such powerful individual equipment consumes a lot of spirit energy."
Meng Chao said, "Then, how do you charge the Totem Battle Armor?"
"Golden Fruit, totem beast flesh, totem beast core, and secret medicine made by witch doctors," Big Barker said.
"Before and after the battle, you have to consume a lot of these things."
"What if you don't consume enough? Will you not be able to activate the Totem Battle Armor or even summon it? Or will you be able to summon it, but its power will be reduced by half? "
Meng Chao continued to ask.
"But it's more likely that if the Totem Battle Armor doesn't get enough spirit energy, it will start to devour the master's flesh and tear the master up. In the end, it will completely control the master and turn the master into an Origin Warrior."
"This means that the Totem Battle Armor is equivalent to a monster living in the master's body," Meng Chao said with a contemplative expression.
"To maintain a strong vitality and fighting strength, this monster will always have to eat people. If it doesn't eat its enemies, it will eat its master?
"Interesting. Come, tell me everything you know about the Totem Battle Armor. From how you felt when you put on the Totem Battle Armor for the first time, to whether you were unable to eat a lot of high-calorie food in time and ended up being devoured by the Totem Battle Armor. Also, how the Bloodhoof Family cultivates totem warriors and what is the secret to controlling the Totem Battle Armor … Don't miss out on even a single detail."
Big Barker did not want to go into too much detail.
It was not that he wanted to hide anything.
It was just that he was in so much pain that he just wanted to end this ridiculous nightmare as soon as possible.
But this black-haired, black-eyed monster seemed to be able to see through his heart.
If he hid anything or even hesitated, the monster would use all sorts of strange and terrifying tools that he had never heard of to make his torn limbs and organs even more unrecognizable.
Under the stimulation of the secret medicine, Big Barker had already lost his sense of time.
It was not as simple as his senses being extended by ten times.
Time seemed to have been cut into countless pieces.
Then, it was messed up and rearranged.
It was even connected from head to tail, forming an infinite loop maze.
He seemed to have answered the same question dozens of times.
The same kneecap was also shattered dozens of times.
The pain made him feel like he was in a living hell. It caused his rationality to completely collapse. His memory bank was like a treasure trove with its door wide open, allowing the robbers to come and go as they pleased.
He did not even know when the monster's question had jumped from the Totem Battle Armor to the internal affairs of the Bloodhoof Family.
"Yes, there is a temple in the Blood Skull Arena. It is dedicated to the gladiators who have stained the arena with their blood over the past thousands of years.
"There are a lot of Totem Battle Armor fragments sealed in the temple. They are all surrounded by fierce souls. No one dares to use them. Whoever dares to wear them will have their flesh and blood sucked dry. Their souls will be controlled and they will turn into Origin Warriors.
"When the Battle of Glory officially begins, the broken pieces of armor that are haunted by vile souls will often be given to the rat people who are especially brave and loyal to their masters. They will be turned into Warriors of Origins and launch the fiercest attacks at the enemy!
"Yes. There is also a secret warehouse in the Blood Skull Arena, where the flesh of the 'legion level' Totem Beasts with the most abundant spiritual energy is kept, as well as the cores of a lot of Totem Beasts. Lord Casafa has worked hard for more than ten years to accumulate the resources to establish the 'Blood Skull Legion'!
"The internal structure of the temple and the secret warehouse? The guards who watch over the temple and the secret warehouse? I — I don't know …
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
"I know. I'll talk. I'll tell you everything. Let me die. Let me die. Ahhhhhh!"
