Chapter 77: Man-eating Giant Rat

The other soldiers were each holding shields, and they erected their shields at the front of the line to prevent a sudden attack by monsters in front of them.

The ten officers immediately threw the fragrant meat to the ground in front of them, and in less than ten breaths they saw countless giant rats crawling out of the deep pits, like adult wolves.

The giant rats were all as black as ink, but their eyes were as red as blood, and when they saw them, they felt panicked.

"Those giant rats are disgusting!"

Many soldiers whispered.

The next moment, they heard a creepy sound from the giant rats, and they all froze, covering their ears to prevent themselves from listening to the sound.

"Those rats are disgusting, I'm going to get rid of them!"

A soldier saw that the rats were making a sound that made his teeth ache, and he hurriedly shot countless iron arrows at the giant rat in front of him.

Woohoo!

The iron arrows burst into the air with a rapid sound and shot at the rats.

When the rats heard the noise, they all fled into the pit.

Seeing that those giant rats had finally escaped into the pit, the warriors present were all relieved.

However, before they could rejoice.

Suddenly, several large craters suddenly appeared around the soldier who shot the iron arrow.

Woohoo!

Several black shadows sprang out of the pit and pounced directly on the soldier.

The next moment, everyone saw clearly what those black shadows were.

"Watch out, everyone, it's those giant rats!"

The other soldiers' faces changed drastically, and their hearts were shocked, they didn't expect that those giant rats could directly burrow into their ranks and attack them.

"Help!"

The soldier let out a terrible scream, and his body immediately lay on the ground, rolling around.

Although the other soldiers present tried to save him, they saw that the giant rats were gnawing at the soldier's body with their mouths wide open.

Moreover, those giant rats crawled on the soldier's body, and the other soldiers were at a loss.

After a while, when some powerful masters approached, the giant rats got into the pit and fled.

What was left on the ground was a white skeleton.

Seeing the pile of bones, the soldiers present were all pale and bloodless.

They didn't expect that the soldier before was still a big living man, and he had turned into a pile of bones in less than twenty breaths.

They could imagine that if they were surrounded by those giant rats at this time, they would end up like the soldiers, turning into a pile of bones in less than twenty breaths.

They hadn't encountered any demon beast attacks before, so they were lucky.

But now that the first time they saw the monster attack them, the other party ate one of their members raw, and this scene was enough to make them feel creepy.

"It's so dangerous here!"

Many soldiers broke out in a cold sweat on their backs.

Wan Qingqing immediately walked over with the guards, and when she saw the pile of white bones, she immediately vomited.

Her face turned extremely pale, and she realized that it had been those giant rats that had eaten a soldier alive just now.

"Oh my God, those giant rats are so terrifying!"

Wan Qingqing realized that it was unsafe for them to be underground now, so she ordered the team to retreat ten kilometers and not move forward for the time being.

So, the soldiers followed Wan Qingqing's instructions and retreated ten kilometers.

They retreated to a place full of granite, and their hearts settled down a little.

They didn't think it was possible for the giant rats to be able to pass through the granite and then rush out of the ground and bite them.

In the evening, Zao Wou-Ki was called over by Wan Qingqing.

He originally thought that Wan Qingqing would ask him how to deal with those giant rats, but he didn't expect that Wan Qingqing had something else to do.

"Why do your father's men have more than two hundred second-order spirit swords?"

Wan Qingqing asked.

Zhao Wuji said to her: "Report to the princess, those second-order spirit swords under my father's command were forged by my master, I have a very powerful master, he taught me some forging methods with vajra inscriptions, and after adding vajra inscriptions, the quality of a spirit sword can be improved by three to fifty percent!

Wan Qingqing gasped when she heard this.

She knew that the apostille inscription was a very mysterious forging method, and that Zao Wou-Ki could learn the forging method of adding the Vajra inscription, which could be regarded as a genius.

"Then Zao Wou-ki, can you rehearse your forging method with me?"

Wan Qingqing suddenly became interested.

Zhao Wou-Ki immediately replied: "Report to the princess, I really can't reveal this forging method to outsiders, this forging method is my master's unique secret book, he doesn't allow me to reveal it to the outside world, and I ask the princess to forgive me!" "Why are you so stingy?"

Wan Qingqing was immediately dissatisfied.

"Tell the princess, I am abiding by my master's explanation, my master said that I learned the method of forging, just to save the world, not to pursue glory and wealth! My master and his old man are really afraid that this method of forging will fall into the hands of those lawbreakers, let them do evil! So, please forgive the princess!"

"I see! Okay, I won't force you! I have five second-order spirit swords on hand, can you add a vajra inscription to them?"

Wan Qingqing asked.

"Princess, you have to take out those five second-order spirit swords first, let me check them first! Not all spirit swords can be marked with vajra inscriptions!"

"Good!"

Wan Qingqing immediately took out five second-order spirit swords from the storage ring, and she handed them to Zao Wou-Ki one by one for him to check.

Zhao Wuji's divine sense entered those second-order spirit swords and checked them one by one.

After a while, he was sure that those second-order spirit swords were all very good-grade spirit swords.

"Tell the princess, there is no problem with these spirit swords! I can add a vajra inscription to each spirit sword for the princess! However, adding an inscription to a spirit sword is not 100% successful, in case I fail, please forgive me!"

Zao Wou-Ki said.

"Don't worry, even if these spirit swords are broken, I won't blame you!"

Wan Qingqing said lightly.

"Princess, the grass people will definitely do their best to serve the princess!"

"Zao Wou-ki, if you succeed, I will recommend you to enter the Royal Academy in the future, if you fail, I will not blame you, but I will ask you to do everything you can to make that red bird close to me, and it will be mine in the future!"

Wan Qingqing continued.

"Princess, I will definitely do my best to serve the princess, please rest assured, princess, I have succeeded in three of these five swords, even if I succeed, what do you think?"

Zao Wou-Ki asked.

"Yes, no problem! When will you be able to get it right?"

Wan Qingqing nodded slightly.

"Tomorrow will be fine!"

Zao Wou-Ki replied.
