Chapter 22: Maneuvering
"Run! That lamp is a defensive artifact that can temporarily replenish energy!"
The battle should have been solved with three shots, but the ratcatcher's kerosene lamp became a key life-saving tool for him.
The rats were only about three meters away from Sherlock, gritted their teeth, pulled the trigger again, drained all the gas in the gun, and then stopped looking at the rat catcher's state, turned and fled.
"Destroyed my two treasures and want to run?
In order to be able to block the shot, he first sacrificed a carefully bred mutant rat and used its blood as fuel for the protective lamp, which is distressing enough, the key is that the protective lamp has its own unique fuel, and suddenly it is replaced with something else, and the run-in becomes a big problem.
This is the same as gun parts, the more delicate the more attention is paid to the matching of parts, a slight flaw will cause the overall accuracy or power of the gun to decline, the invasion of foreign objects has undoubtedly caused irreversible damage to this lamp.
From the flickering and flickering fire in the bottle now, we can know that the effect of this thing will be greatly reduced in the future, and I don't know how much effort it will take to repair it.
As the saying goes, if you often walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet, but the boat overturned in the gutter, and the rat catcher was also really angry, and the piccolo blew again and again, and the rats who rushed forward broke out into bursts of piercing screams.
Ferocious!
"Split up!"
Running apart from the two of them will divert the rat colony, and the chances of escaping will be greater.
"I have a gun, what are you going to do?"
In Sherlock's opinion, he can fight back with the gun in his hand, Donald doesn't have a weapon, and it would be a dead end to be caught up, but Donald, who has turned the other side and ran for a while, can't hear it.
Donald's plan is very simple, run as far out of the street as possible, as long as you can get into the crowd, you can find helpers, these dozens of rats to surround him is a simple, but as long as there are more people, the pressure is shared, and his combat effectiveness is no problem against a few rats no matter what.
What's more, there is always a limit to this control of mice, range, quantity, these must have a quantitative, otherwise rat catchers will not have to steal jewelry, tens of thousands of rats swagger across the border, and it is no problem to grab them directly.
Mutant rats are the key!
This was Donald's idea, Sherlock had observed the state of these rats with his psychic vision during the previous battle, ordinary rats were only white, while mutant rats emitted the same red light as the rat catchers.
Donald believes that ordinary rats are very much more than unconscious puppets, they are controlled by the rat catcher within a certain range, and once they get out of this range, the control is weakened, and the mutant rats are used as the core of control, and all mutant rats are directly controlled by the rat catcher.
To put it simply, after rushing out of a certain distance, the two-level control becomes the three-level, for example, the daily class time in the school, the teacher is the control core, and when it is transferred to the self-study time, it will become the class committee as the control core, and the order of the two time periods and the binding force of the control core are naturally slightly different.
Bold guessing, cautious verification.
As he ran, Donald kept looking back at the mutant rat behind him, figuring out its location, and looking around for an elevated platform or something that could cling to the upper house.
On the one hand, you have to try your own method under the premise of being still, and on the other hand, you have to ...... He really couldn't run.
You can't expect a religious department to be athletic in a way that deals with a bunch of church texts and historical documents all day, at least not the current Donald and his predecessors.
Panting, his throat was so thirsty that his saliva was thickening, his calves were shaking, and his hands were swinging as hard as he could, hoping to squeeze out some more strength.
Being able to keep thinking in such a situation is also a skill.
After a few minutes of walking through the warehouse area, Donald managed to find a stacked crate, leaning against the top of a warehouse.
Then the momentum of rushing forward, using both hands and feet, stepped on the bottom of the cargo box, climbed up layer by layer, and reached the roof in a short time.
"Huh~Huh~Ahem......"
Turning around and sitting on the roof of the warehouse, with his legs in front of him, his mouth wide open to let as much fresh air into his body as possible, his ears and brain cavities filled with bursts of buzzing.
After today, you must find a way to exercise, at least you must be able to run and jump!
Only the mutant rats at the bottom of the dozens of rats can jump up directly, but they also have their own methods, in a few screams of the mutant mice, these rats began to climb up in the form of stacked arhats, the speed is not slow, and the mutant rats rush to the front.
Donald sat on the top and waited, watching the gray-black wave rise and fall.
With a crate of height left, Donald could already make out the mutant mouse's dark yellow front teeth, but it wasn't enough.
"Come on, I'm going to see if you're the one in control of these rats. ”
Adjusting his mental state, Donald thought of a way to attack this mutant rat with the mental power he had just explored, as long as it broke its mental state, the rat catcher would never be able to control a thoughtless body, right?
Half a meter!
The pungent smell of the swarm of rats rushed madly into Donald's nose, and the scarlet eyes the size of mung beans were no longer staring at him, and they received the command...... Eat the creatures in front of you!
Chirping~
The first to step forward is the mutant rat, which is not common, just like on the rooftop, in the face of some powerful opponents, it likes to let its subordinates test first, but this time is different, the human in front of it, there is no threat to it at all, as long as it rushes into his arms, claws, fangs, will become weapons!
Mental Shock!
Donald is not a native of this world, and when he came to this world, he stored memories of the past in his mind, and it is undeniable that this memory does not play a big role in his understanding of the customs and customs of this world, and learning knowledge, because it is another culture, and the two sides do not have a boundary at all.
However, the era of the information explosion in his previous life gave him an extremely precious trait - full of creative imagination!
Are there any people who have superpowers in their previous lives who don't know, but in the many works that Donald has seen, are there still few people with strong mental powers?
This is almost an indispensable presence in some Western dramas.
Their means of attack may only be imaginary of ordinary people, but in today's Donald, this is the best reference!
Now that your mental strength is very weak, then use the simplest technique.
Mental Shock!
Imagine your few mental powers turning into a thin needle, rushing into the mutated rat's skull and attacking its head.
In the next second, two blood streaks dragged out of Donald's nostrils, and the dizziness in his mind suddenly increased, which was the price of overloading his mental power!
There was a sudden turbulence in the void in front of him, and since the price had been paid, the explosion that should have been there was naturally indispensable, if Donald turned on his spiritual vision at this moment, he would find that the original fluttering spiritual power in front of him did show signs of condensation, but it was no longer necessary to condense into a needle, at most it was a small mallet with the thickness of a finger.
But dealing with mutant rats...... Enough is enough!
