Chapter 40 Killing Rats
A thin green branch shot out from his sleeve and rushed straight towards the two of them. Before anyone could react, it passed by their ears and shot behind them, and then they heard the sound of penetration.
The boys were more daring and turned around to look. It turned out to be a mutant rat, only about two meters away from them. If it weren't for Kan Shang's action, if this rat wanted to attack them, it would be impossible to hide even if it wanted to.
The two of them hurried back to the team with lingering fears.
Kan Shang also stopped collecting the meat of exotic animals. Everyone began to dig out and put away the crystal cores of the dead alien beasts. As for the body, it was too late.
Because they are all people who have experienced many battles since the end of the world, and they all know that mutant rats never act alone, and usually appear in groups.
I'm afraid, these are just the vanguard, they should have been targeted by the mutant rats.
Sure enough, just when everyone had just finished digging out the crystal core and was about to burn the corpses on the ground, the rats appeared.
The mutated rat just now pales into insignificance compared to the rats that appeared in the rat colony now.
The one just now was only two or three times the size of an ordinary mouse, with short limbs. It is also gray in appearance and not very noticeable.
This is also the reason why several experienced people did not notice it at first.
But the group in front of me was obviously not the same. The smallest ones were the size of basketballs, and the larger ones were even half a person tall. Their limbs were swollen, and the sharpness of their claws was vaguely visible.
The scarlet eyes were so wide that the pupils were almost invisible, the nose was surprisingly long, and the teeth became jagged.
This group of mutant rats are basically at the second and third levels. Although the level is not high, they are huge in number.
According to a mental power user in the team, the activities of these mutant rats seemed to have a purpose, a route, and a command. If the speculation is true, it means that there is a more advanced Rat King controlling them, and I am afraid it will be difficult to escape unscathed.
What makes it difficult for a few people is that they can hardly detect the movement of the rats. They often appear suddenly from under their feet inadvertently.
If a few people hadn't reacted quickly, they would have been bitten off a piece of meat.
Obviously, these mutant rats were more interested in living people like them than in the dead bodies already on the ground.
But they had just experienced fighting, and when they were exhausted, even with their 120,000% concentration, they felt quite powerless.
Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly tense, they were almost trapped in a swarm of rats. If they didn't find a way as soon as possible, they might be eaten alive.
Kan Shang asked people to try it with fire. Although it had some effect, the number of mutant rats was too large and could not keep up with their breakout speed.
If you want to burn a way out, I'm afraid the rats won't burn much, and the people will be gone first.
Several people tried using their own powers, including soil burial, water flooding, ice spikes... They tried various methods, but they could only move twenty or thirty meters outward.
Moreover, this group of mutant rats would also dodge and attack from multiple angles based on their actions, which undoubtedly confirmed their speculation - there must be a rat king hiding in the dark and commanding.
Compared with these troublesome ordinary mutant rats, the ignorant rat king is obviously more dangerous.
Kan Shang was out of breath at this moment. Although he had space in his body, he could not save his life, but the people in this team were his friends who fought alongside him, and they were the rare people he could trust.
Although he didn't want to expose himself, he didn't want to lose them. He planned to get rid of the Rat King first, so that he could escape from the panic of the rats.
So, where will the Rat King be?
If he is the Rat King, there are enemies on the ground that he cannot fight against, and he needs a safe place...
By the way, underground!
Kan Shang guessed that the Rat King might be watching their battle somewhere underground. Moreover, the distance may not be too far, otherwise, it would not be able to issue instructions in time.
But the advantage of this group of mutant rats is underground, 00082. He can't attack while probing, so he needs someone to keep him safe.
He yelled for everyone to come closer to him, attacking the rats while proposing his ideas to those in the group. There was no other way at the moment, so they unanimously decided to let him try.
After determining the defensive position, everyone took their positions. Kan Shang began to condense his mental power into a thread of nothingness, and explored the ground...
One meter, two meters, five meters... Passing through the constantly flowing mutant rats, he probed deeper...
Ten meters... twenty meters... Suddenly, he discovered the twists and turns of the underground tunnel, and the flat graphics seemed to become three-dimensional.
After realizing that his delicate mental power could not quickly find the location of the Rat King, Kan Shang decisively changed his approach and weaved his mental power into a fine net, starting from a hole in the corridor and capturing the Rat King's traces horizontally.
This one is not, that one is not, that one is not...
The rapid consumption of mental energy made his face turn pale, but this was not the time to relax. Only by finding the Rat King would they have a chance to escape.
So, he increased his mental output and began to search more carefully...
Until somewhere, he discovered a mutant rat that had been avoiding his detection.
Judging from the feedback of mental power, this mutant rat is not big, it can even be said to be a little too small, and it is also a thin and small one in appearance.
If Kan Shang hadn't been careful, he might have capsized in the gutter. Whether it was or not, he was going to fix it.
Kan Shang decisively turned his mental power into an invisible arrow and shot it directly at the mutant rat. It seemed to be aware of it and wanted to avoid it, but no matter how fast it was, it couldn't match Kan Shang's mental power. It screamed and was pierced through the head.
At this moment, the rats suddenly became restless, and Kan Shang succeeded!
Although Kan Shang successfully killed the Rat King, he was so exhausted that he could hardly stand and could not recover in a short time.
He now relies solely on his thoughts to support himself, otherwise he would fall into a coma.
The powerful superpower Sun Mingxing carried him on his shoulders, and everyone began to cover each other, finally fighting a way out...
