Chapter 40 Trap
The blue sky is clear and cloudless, the desert is like snow, and the golden sunshine is pouring on the desert like fire. The gravel is clattering in the high temperature, and cracks appear on a large area during the hot baking of the earth.
This kind of heat and light are many times stronger than that of the old era. Most creatures in the old era cannot bear the physique of the body, but those weaker lives have long turned into dead bones in the wilderness over thousands of years and can still survive now often can fully adapt to a brand new environment.
The mad dog roared like a beast and slashed out two swords.
The two giant rats were immediately cut in half, and a lot of foul-smelling and sour liquid flowed out of the cut.
Just now this place was solved, and another one rushed up next to it.
The mad dog sideways avoided the giant rat's crazy biting. Yunying rushed over quickly in the gap and poked the giant rat's head directly with a triangular steel pipe, and before he could pull it back.
"careful!"
"There is another acid mouse!"
Mercenary Cook rushed back from the front on a bigfoot. Behind him was a large group of giant rats, one of which was relatively small, but a fat mutant rat with oily green fur. If you carefully identify it, it is still more eye-catching in the rat group.
The acid mouse is a special mutant mouse.
This mutant mouse has several acid sacs in its body. It can collect and store strong acid substances by collecting and storing strong acid substances. When it is necessary to fight, spraying acid can attack targets for several meters. The most troublesome thing is that the acid mouse has not only acid sacs, but also a large number of acid glands in its leather armor tissue. If you cut one ordinary weapon, you can declare your life. The acid splattered acid sac is enough to cause huge damage to people.
This guy caused the iron hedgehog that was scrapped yesterday!
Puff!
Two ripples of acid ejaculated.
Yunying and the mad dog quickly dodged. The two killed giant rats were hit by the acid liquid. The fur and flesh of the giant rat were completely dissolved in the "hissing" sound, leaving only the bones exposed, but soon the bones softened and melted.
The mad dog yelled: "Kill him quickly!"
Yun Ying threw the steel pipe with his right hand to his left hand and pulled out the revolver from his waist. When the second attack was about to be released, he shot directly into the mouth of the acid mouse. The fatal attack made the fat giant rat fall down immediately, and then the whole body began to dissolve, a large amount of acid liquid poured out to the surroundings, and the ground was corroded into a small pit.
The acid mouse was killed.
The mad dog had no scruples anymore. He instantly chopped all four giant rats into pieces like chopping melons and vegetables with two machetes. At this time, Ula rushed out from the side to help, and the giant rats were finally wiped out.
Yunying wiped the triangular steel tube blood clean.
At this time, Cook rode the bigfoot and rushed over: "The cunning fox found a cave, and the surroundings were cleaned up. Let's hide in it first."
Mad dog, Yunying followed Cook to find the cave.
Everyone seemed to have experienced a battle, and several of them were injured and looked very embarrassed.
The mad dog's accumulated anger was completely extinguished. He kicked a big rock and cursed and angrily: "This time the information deviation is too outrageous. There are only one or two hundred rats, and there are more than five hundred such big rats here!"
These giant rats are not only powerful, but their number is several times higher than that of intelligence.
Now the specific number is impossible to estimate at all.
Yun Ying leaned against the hole a little tired and checked his revolver. He used a total of three bullets. He filled the bullets one by one, swung them back to the nest, and inserted them around his waist.
The career here is a good sight, and the range of more than ten kilometers is all in my eyes. The earth is like a large centipede entangled with each other, forming a large number of short ridges.
In the field of view, there are a large number of strange buildings and collapsed statues. Among them, a short mountain is particularly eye-catching. It seems to be cut off by a giant blade. At the smooth fracture, there is a spire more than ten meters long, which suddenly "grows" out of the rocks.
The overall rust of all-metal spire is very severe. Whether it is material style or feels like it, it is not very similar to the buildings of the old era, but it is like being moved from another world.
"Is it strange?" A big man like a bear came over: "This is a typical spatial overlapping terrain. I heard that a long time ago, our living world was suddenly overlapping with multiple worlds for unknown reasons. The collision destroyed ancient civilizations and changed the landforms, and also brought many strange things to our world. These things that grew from stones were left at that time, so they looked so strange."
"Will you know this?" Yun Ying looked at him with suspicious eyes: "You made up!"
"Bah, when I was on a mission two years ago, I once encountered a group of old-fashioned people who claimed to be explorers. These are what they said. As for whether it is true or not, I don't understand!" Cook lit a cigarette and sat down next to him, took out another one and handed it to him, "The world is in chaos, who cares! Come on one?"
Yun Ying had experience. This time, he was still choked and coughed repeatedly: "Cough cough... Explorer? Who are they?"
"I don't know, a group of guys with a brain problem are looking for truth and truth all day long, and are determined to revive the lost civilization, but it seems that they are quite powerful in the wilderness." Cook shook his head and threw a kettle to him, "There are all kinds of weird people in the wilderness, and there is nothing to be strange about."
"Yes, there are all kinds of people now!"
Yunying opened the kettle and sniffed it. When she confirmed that it was really water, she drank a big gulp, allowing the cool feeling to penetrate into her body.
"After that being said, you performed well, and I didn't expect you to have such skills."
Yun Ying said angrily: "I was beaten by you for a month. Shouldn't you learn something?"
Cook laughed: "You guy hides deeply enough, go back and have a good time."
Yun Ying hummed and said, "I'm afraid I'll beat you up all over the ground for teeth."
"I have a kind of genitals, I remember this sentence, please wait for me!"
"Everyone comes here!" The cunning fox gathered and announced: "The situation of this mission is quite complicated. We don't know how many mice there are. Judging from the current situation, about 400 to 500 are indispensable, and it is too big to explore blindly."
The mercenaries started to curse.
"Then have you come up with an idea?" The mad dog said impatiently: "We can't fight so many giant rats!"
The cunning fox is the captain of the first team of Huangquan mercenaries and is also the main brain of Huangquan mercenaries. Generally, when encountering difficulties, the cunning foxes rely on the cunning fox to find ways to solve them.
"Use the stupidest way!"
"The stupidest way?"
"We have 25 people in total. If we encounter only forty giant rats, as long as there are no errors or shocks in the battle, we can completely control the battle to complete the battle with zero casualties." The cunning fox paused for a few seconds and continued: "I have observed the terrain nearby. Several ridges are bare and there are not many places to cover the field of view. Our water is sufficient, and ordinary giant rat meat can be eaten directly. Therefore, we have the ability to fight a war of attrition. From now on, we will not explore in depth. We only hunt alone giant rats. If we encounter a large group of rats, try to separate them, and then create traps to lure small groups of giant rats, and carry out annihilation battles in small groups, step by step, fight steadily, slowly go deeper, and finally find the Rat King!"
Small groups of people slowly consume the number, and hundreds of giant rats killed almost the same. Will you find a way to get rid of the Rat King? It's really the stupidest way!
But it's enough!
Giant rats are low-level lives, and no matter how powerful they are, they are low-minded beasts. Humans cannot fight brute force when dealing with animals. Of course, they must fully exert their biggest advantage, that is, the role of their brains.
Yunying yawned, so it seemed that some people were busy.
Mercenaries are elites in the wilderness. They all have unique skills and are very powerful in action. The cunning fox strategy has been decided, and everyone immediately began to act.
Ula played an important role, using his nose to find a group of rats, and mercenaries used diversion and induce traps to eliminate them in batches.
At the end of the day.
A total of 100 giant rats were hunted.
These rat meat alone are worth a lot of value.
There were no casualties in the mercenaries, and the results were very brilliant!
The next day continued, but Yunying showed that there were significantly fewer giant rats nearby, and about fifty were killed in this day. On the third day, there was no trace of the giant rat.
Mercenaries are a little strange.
But I didn't think much about it.
Perhaps the giant rats have territorial nature. When the giant rats in one area are hunted, the giant rats in other areas have not had time to replenish them, so they formed a vacuum zone, which is not uncommon in the wilderness. Since the giant rats here have been killed, the mercenaries made a decision after discussing and began to slowly penetrate and clear out other areas a little by little.
"Ula!"
Yunying led Ula, and Ula ran in front, and more than 20 mercenaries were shuttled through the bald wilderness.
Ula followed her sense of smell for more than an hour, and suddenly stopped in front of a canyon, and he barked wildly into the canyon.
"There are a small group of giant rats here." Yunying covered her face with a cloth scarf, wore a goggles, a steel pipe in her hand, a hunting rifle hanging behind her back, and a leather armor. She looked like a mercenary, "It was probably between twenty and thirty."
The mad dog didn't even think about it: "What are you waiting for? Go in and solve them!"
Yunying glanced at the canyon. The canyon looked very deep and narrow. For some reason, a bad feeling filled his heart: "Why do I feel something is wrong?"
The mad dog didn't understand what Yunying said: "Ula's nose never goes wrong!"
"You four stay here, and report the news immediately if there is any situation." The cunning fox also believed Ula's judgment, but with his cautious personality, he still left four capable members to keep watch, "Let's go in and fight."
Twenty or thirty giant rats are nothing to this group of people.
This canyon is quite deep, but when Yunying followed everyone deeper, his heart felt worse and worse. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
Finally reached the deepest part of the canyon.
"What's going on?" The mad dog looked at the empty place and his ugly and black face sank. "Is Ula's nose really wrong?"
It was empty here, with only rocks all over the ground, and there was no road ahead.
Don't talk about giant rats, there is no ghost.
This is impossible!
Yun Ying saw something, and he rushed over immediately and used a steel pipe to push the rocks away. When he saw something buried inside, his face turned pale.
The other mercenaries came over and saw that their faces changed drastically, because the stones were all covered with rat hair and feces.
Ula's nose is indeed nothing wrong.
These are indeed very fresh traces, probably buried here a few hours ago.
Both the cunning fox and the mad dog were stunned and stared at the strange scene.
Only Cook, the mercenary with a big nerve, seemed not to feel the solemn atmosphere, but instead laughed and said, "Don't tell me that it was the giant rat who deliberately set up a trap and tricked us all into it, hahahaha..."
He only laughed halfway through his laughter.
He was the only one laughing in the audience!
He felt very embarrassed!
Yun Ying didn't find it funny at all, and a chill appeared on his spine. Although he had experienced countless fears, this time was different from before, because a terrible thought really emerged in his mind...
These damn mice really set up a trap, but ended up cheating all the humans?!
Chapter completed!
