Stepping on the charred corpses of their companions, the demon rat swarm broke through the wall of fire at a faster pace. Before Zhang Yunxiu made another move, it was like a flood bursting the embankment and rushing towards us!

If you get bitten by them...... It's sure to turn into a white skeleton in an instant!

No, don't come here!

The whole world suddenly fell silent.

The rats screaming and advancing frantically stopped in the middle of the road in an instant, some of them raised their front feet as if they were running wildly, some turned their heads and opened their mouths, as if to summon their companions behind them, and some even stayed in mid-air, their whole bodies maintaining a posture of rushing forward.

Time was paused, and each demon rat turned into a solidified statue.

"Plop—"

My knees went limp, and I fell to my knees. He put his hands on the ground and gasped for air.

It's weird, I didn't do anything, why...... Why are you so tired?

"Li Jingluo, you ......"

Looking up, Zhang Yunxiu's face came into view, she looked like she wanted to speak and stopped, as if she wanted to come forward to help me, but she hesitated for some unknown reason.

In her eyes, the flame of the past had been extinguished, but there was more of an inexplicable fear.

……

……

Why, to be afraid?

Zhang Yunxiu, what are you afraid of?

……

Are you ...... Fear me?

"Twitter ——!"

A scream of rage rang out from the rat colony and slammed into my head like an awl.

The sharp pain almost made me unconscious, and I held my head in agony, curled up on the ground like a shrimp.

"Li Jingluo, hold on!" Zhang Yunxiu finally helped me up, put a piece of talisman paper around my neck, and whispered a spell: "Seven Stars Yulin Bell." ”

A cool breath flowed from the neck to the whole body, relieving the headache a little.

"Thank you. ”

I held Zhang Yunxiu's arm and straightened up, only to see a significantly larger black rat behind the demon rat pack. Instead of standing motionless like the other demon rats, it nimbly scurried above the swarm of rats, roaring angrily with red eyes.

"Twitter ——!"

That's the sound!

It was the sound that pierced my head and turned into a big hand that was desperately tearing at my nerves.

And with the screams of the rat leader, the originally solidified rat swarm gradually began to move. The mouse running forward lowered its front feet, arched its body and raised its hind feet; the mouse that turned back and opened its mouth was indeed calling its companions, and several black mice quickly gathered together, as if they wanted to make a detour from the bushes on the side; the mouse that was stagnant in mid-air fell to the ground with a "plop", and flapped its feet to the sky a few times, and a grunt rolled over.

Although the rats were acting as if they had been pressed the slow motion button, they did restart their activities and kept closing in on us.

"Twitter ——!", "Twitter ——!", "Twitter ——!"

The rat leader stands on a protruding rock and constantly emits rhythmic chirping sounds from his mouth. It's like a general who leads a big battle, and is methodically issuing various battle orders to his subordinates.

And beneath it, countless demonic rats form a black river that flows around the stones and rushes towards us.

No! They must not be allowed to come!

Absolutely not!

Absolutely not!

A few big golden characters suddenly appeared in my mind, incomparably huge and incomparably heavy, and they were thrown at the demon rat swarm by the villain in my heart.

And then......

A miracle happened!

The advancing demon rat swarm once again stagnated, turning into a meek and harmless statue.

"Twitter ——!"

The rat leader roared again, and the solidified rat swarm shook again.

I understand!

It's me! That's when I stopped the rat swarm!

I don't know when I had this ability, or how it was used, but it did stop the rat swarm!

I think this ability should be similar to the mental ability often depicted in anime novels, or similar to the mental power in American movies.

In short, as long as I think hard, desperately, and strongly, I can control the demon rat swarm and stop their attack!

Thinking of this, I immediately immersed myself in the spiritual world even harder. There, I kept making big golden words out of thin air—"absolutely not," "stop now," "don't come," "stop attacking," and then my inner villain smashed them one by one into the demon rat swarm.

The agitated rat colony immediately fell silent, which proved that my conjecture should have been correct.

However, the Rat Boss seems to possess the same abilities.

In the virtual spirit world, the rat leader constantly roars at the rat colony. Its roar turned into a giant black web, netting the sluggish black rats and dragging them out of my range in groups.

My inner villain keeps smashing out big words.

The rat leader dragged the giant net and rushed left and right.

- In the virtual spiritual world, I smashed and collided with the rat leader, and started a tug-of-war.

- In the real world, the rats are stagnant for a while, up and down, back and forth.

Take advantage of your illness to kill you!

Zhang Yunxiu immediately turned his talisman into a knife, and began to kill in the slow-moving demon rat swarm, quickly destroying the enemy's living force without mercy.

When the rat leader saw this posture, he immediately panicked. But it fell into a tug-of-war with my spirit, and it couldn't stop Zhang Yunxiu at all, so it had to let out an angry roar and launch a desperate attack in the spiritual world.

At this moment, my pressure in the spiritual world suddenly doubled.

The villain in his heart is also a little unsupportable, and there are signs of exhaustion and defeat.

"Squeak!"

A small head popped out of my pocket, like a marmot's head popping out of the endless grassland. The little dripping eyes looked at me silently.

"Little pancake, it's dangerous here, hide back. ”

I reached out and pressed the little pancake back into my pocket, hoping that I could protect the little one in my pocket like a mother kangaroo. Unfortunately, the bear children are similar in any species, and the little pancake did not accept my kindness at all, and deftly dodged the palm I pressed down, and quickly slipped out of his fingers.

My voice immediately became stern: "Little pancake, come back quickly!"

"Squeak-squeak, squeak, squeak!" The little pancake rolled twice on the ground, shook his round little ass, and finally opened his mouth wide. "Squeak!"

"Thank you, little pancakes. I also know that you are indeed very powerful. I reluctantly reassured, "But your slime is only useful for inorganic matter." Now the black rats here are living creatures, and your slime can't deal with them. ”

"Squeak ——!"

The little pancake growled angrily at me, then opened its mouth wide and spat out a large mouthful of slime in my face.

Smack!

My entire face was covered in mucus and I couldn't see anything for a while.

Me: "......"

You're all bullying me!
