Chapter 1153: Dream Construction

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Comforted by the Ancient Dream Saintess, Meng Chao fell into a half-unconscious and half-conscious state. He no longer struggled or yelled.

The Ancient Dream Saintess did not seem to care about the “stone wall of runes” that he had mentioned. She told the witch doctor to take good care of a warrior like Meng Chao. Then, she walked toward the next seriously-injured person.

However, behind her, Meng Chao’s lips curled into a faint smile.

He knew that the Ancient Dream Saintess had already taken the bait.

She would definitely think of a way to sneak into his dream and explore the secrets of the stone wall runes.

In his dream, Meng Chao would then be able to have a good chat with the Ancient Dream Saintess without any interference and have the “home field advantage.”

That’s right, his own dream was the safest place Meng Chao could think of to communicate.

Only in his dream would he be able to ensure that there would be no “walls with ears” and the ambitious people hiding behind the Ancient Dream Saintess would not pry into their communication.

Even if the other party could penetrate the Ancient Dream Saintess’ brain and invade Meng Chao’s mind, there was a layer of separation. As such, Meng Chao was confident that he would be able to build an absolute defense in his brain. He could even let the strange power that dared to invade his brain have a taste of what it was like to steal a chicken but end up losing a grain of rice.

Of course, he could not let the Ancient Dream Saintess take the initiative in the dream world.

In the past, whether it was the Big-horned Rat God standing on the clouds and emanating awe-inspiring light that one could not look at with the naked eye, or…

The Great Horn Army forming a magnificent square formation that swept across the entire map, or…

The Ancient Dream Saintess playing the clarinet and commanding the tide of skeletons and rat people to devour the entire Red-gold City…

Not forgetting the dream last night, where countless rat people had sacrificed their lives turned into crystal clear heroic spirits and flew to the top of the Holy Mountain as the Big-horned Rat God summoned them…

These dreams had all been created by the Ancient Dream Saintess and implanted into the rat soldiers’s brains, including Meng Chao’s.

The Ancient Dream Saintess could naturally summon the wind and rain in such dreams, guiding the dreamers to see and believe whatever she wanted them to see and believe.

This time, however, Meng Chao would personally create and control the dream.

Previously, Meng Chao had never created a dream.

Though, during the battle between Dragon City and the monster civilization, he had encountered countless experts who created illusions.

It was especially true when it came to the double illusion of Peach Blossom Town, which the Supernatural Entity, the Tree of Wisdom, had created.

It had been a super illusion that was both illusory and real, a hundred times more real than a dream. It had trapped countless superhumans in it and prevented them from extricating themselves.

After Meng Chao defeated the illusion experts, including the Demonic Abyss Eye, as well as the Tree of Wisdom, and entered the monster civilization’s ultimate lair, he read a lot of information that dated back to the ancient era from the monster mastermind. He also gained his own understanding on how to create an illusion.

Although he did not know how to project dreams into someone else’s brain subtly, he did not have to worry about the issue at all.

He only needed to use his strong imagination to build a vivid and lifelike world deep in his brain. Then, he just had to quietly wait for the Ancient Dream Saintess to fall into his trap.

Learning from the Tree of Wisdom’s experience, Meng Chao decided to divide his dream into several layers.

The outermost layer was naturally about the younger years of his fictional identity, Tree Root.

It also included the story of him going deep into the mountains and forests to pick golden fruits with his family, only to be attacked by totem beasts and fall off a cliff in a panic.

Leaf told Meng Chao before that the Ancient Dream Saintess had once sneaked into his dream and read his childhood memories, transforming into a non-existent figure like his sister. She had taught him how to practice with the human-shaped arrowhead he had seen on the cave mural.

Of course, Meng Chao had been highly suspicious. While the Ancient Dream Saintess had taught leaf, she had also read all the information about the cave mural in Leaf’s brain.

Therefore, once the Ancient Dream Saintess sneaked into Meng Chao’s dream and saw his experience, she would not have too many suspicions.

Meng Chao prepared a few tests for the Ancient Dream Saintess in his dream.

People could only reveal their true selves in the dream.

In reality, a gentleman with a dignified appearance was like an erupting volcano in the dream world, fulfilling his ugliest desires to his heart’s content. That was human nature.

Meng Chao believed that these tests would allow him to clearly see what kind of person the Ancient Dream Saintess was.

Was she a demon’s lackey or a puppet?

Was she someone worth saving and cooperating with, or was she an obstacle that should be eliminated?

Next, it was the stone wall runes at the bottom of the cliff.

Images and materials from the pits of the sinkhole in the Hidden Mist Domain had been stored in his memory. Now, Meng Chao was ready to construct a wondrous world that was completely different from the outside world.

Since the “materials” were real things that existed, it was impossible for the Ancient Dream Saintess to see through them.

As for the runes on the stone wall, Meng Chao was prepared to copy a few ancient stone steles that he had seen in the depths of Ruins No. 1 at the center of Dragon City.

The people of Earth had studied the runes on these stone steles for more than half a century, but they were still unable to decipher all of their content.

No matter how high one’s realm was or how strong one’s mental strength was, if they stared at the stone steles for a long time, their mental defenses would shake. Then, they would have a splitting headache and a mental breakdown.

Meng Chao believed that as a mental expert with extremely high mental strength, the Ancient Dream Saintess would definitely have a strong interest in the runes.

Once she was fully focused on studying the contents of the runes, she would definitely be like those researchers with profound skills in Dragon City. Her brain would be greatly shocked, and her mental defenses would have a flaw.

When that happened, Meng Chao would have a great chance to invade the Ancient Dream Saintess’ brain and steal the secret hidden in the deepest part of her soul.

That’s right, just communicating in the dream realm was not Meng Chao’s goal.

The mysterious Saintess had a strange ability to manipulate other people’s dreams and even predict the future as she pleased. In just a few years, she had single-handedly created the Great Horn Army and caused the Great Horn Chaos.

Meng Chao was not completely confident that he would convince her with his perfect tongue.

Mental interference was a two-way street.

Whenever the Ancient Dream Saintess sneaked into Meng Chao’s brain through his dream, she would also opened the port of her brain, giving Meng Chao a chance to follow the clues and invade in the opposite direction.

Of course, Meng Chao was also prepared for the Ancient Dream Saintess’ brain to be controlled by stronger enemies, such as “Jackal” Kanus.

Therefore, he prepared a deeper layer of security in his dream.

He wanted to make sure that even the will of Kanus, the Jackal, could not use the Ancient Dream Saintess’ brain as a springboard to invade his brain.

As long as Kanus dared to follow him all the way to the security layer, even the powerful Doomsday Wolf would be beaten into a three-legged stray dog in the depths of Meng Chao’s brain!

Meng Chao spent three days to carefully construct his dream.

He had been most worried about the Ancient Dream Saintess invading his dream before it was completed.

Fortunately, the Ancient Dream Saintess had been consoling the seriously wounded day and night for the past few days. It was quite an energy-consuming task to take care of the thousands of wounded. For the time being, she did not care about the “stone wall runes” that Meng Chao had mentioned.

However, even though Meng Chao had finished constructing the dream and three days had passed, the “infiltration” that he had expected still did not happen.

The Ancient Dream Saintess had already left the wounded barracks.

From the well-informed wounded soldiers, Meng Chao learned that a long-lasting and large-scale war was brewing, boiling, and erupting around Hundred Blade City.

As a result, more and more wounded soldiers poured into barracks. In just a few days, the scale had increased by three to five times.

These new wounded soldiers brought a large number of battle reports on the areas around Hundred Blade City.

It was said that dozens of rebel rat troops had broken through the encirclement of the five great clans and arrived at Hundred Blade City. That led to the Great Horn Army to have a terrifying number of soldiers.

With a steady stream of cannon fodder, the feint at the foot of Hundred Blade City turned into real attacks.

It was said that under the rat tide’s fearless and surging attacks, even the iron walls of Hundred Blade City were shaken. In the latest assault, half of Hundred Blade City’s southwestern wall had collapsed. Following that, the rat soldiers charged into the city and started a fierce battle with the defending army.

Although they were eventually chased out by the defending army, just the fact that the rat people had destroyed Hundred Blade City’s wall was enough to make all the rat people cheer. Meanwhile, the defending army’s morale was low, and their prestige fell.

Word around Hundred Blade City was the Great Horn Army and the Wolf Clan’s reinforcements had started a few more bloody battles. Although the rat people had suffered heavy losses, they had used countless corpses to build an iron wall. They refused to let the Wolf Clan’s reinforcements to cross the line!

Hundred Blade city was about to be flooded by the rat tide.

It would be the first city that the Great Horn Army conquered. It was a glorious city that had great symbolic and strategic value.

When that time came, the entire Picturesque Orchid Lake would be shocked to the core.

As for the rat servants and slave workers who were still enslaved by the clan warriors and had not made up their minds to resist, they would definitely be excited and rise up.

The Great Horn Army would be ten times larger than it was today.. No power would be able to stop them from establishing their own clans. Guided by the Big-horned Rat God, they would even seize what originally belonged to the jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards—supreme glory!
