Chapter 59: The Rats Crisis
The bounty hunters roared out of the high walls, and the situation on the outside can only be described as miserable compared to the inside, as if they had encountered an apocalyptic situation.
After the people retreated, the rats took over everything on the island with even more brazenness, and only two or three months later, the former town seemed to be in ruins.
A dozen giant rats that were gnawing on carrion rushed towards the crowd, they were very large, but in the face of this team of nearly a thousand people, they were trampled into meat patties in an instant.
"Hey, hey, hey, are these hateful mice, they're really weak, Uncle Ben can trample a few to death when he gets down!"
One of the pirates laughed as he stepped on a rat under his feet, grinding it over and over again, crushing it into a mass of pulp.
Hearing this disdainful voice, Luo Lan felt sad for him, these dozen or so rats were completely negligible compared to the huge swarm of rats, if it was really so easy to solve, people would not have to retreat into the high walls. After a while, the real rat swarm will come, and this group of guys will be comfortable.
The team has gone all the way, and has eliminated several waves of rats, and the number of rats is also more and more every time, and the last time it has reached hundreds, and a large rat under black pressure rushed to attack, and the momentum was quite huge, and this time the human face finally felt a little troublesome!
Although the number is only half of the number of the team, these rats are more agile in their movements, and it is inevitable that some fish will slip through the net, and the bounty hunters have not forgotten that if you are unlucky enough to be bitten by these rats, there is a good chance of contracting diseases!
And there are no cases of this disease being cured yet!
For the first time, they felt scared, and finally used their thermal weapons, and the bullets bloomed in the rat colony, and the lethality immediately increased to a higher level. Sometimes a single bullet can even kill several mice in a row.
This time, people had a thrilling time, but there were still two poor worms who were unfortunately bitten in the thighs by mice.
Luo Lan continued to act as a bastard at the back of the team, becoming a dispensable existence, anyway, if there is any emergency, there will be the group of "powerful" people in front of him, and he is such a little white face or stay in the back honestly and obediently. After several waves like this, even others seemed to have forgotten that there was such a person as Luo Lan.
As for Miss Sarah, she doesn't have to worry about it, she only needs to shout a few words like "Mouse" and "Scared" when the mouse appears, and a large number of people will come to the rescue with the idea of heroism to save the beauty.
It can be said responsibly that her life is more comfortable than Luo Lan's.
"We should be almost there, right?"
"Perhaps, we've killed so many rats, we shouldn't come again, right?"
"There are so many of us left, even if we run into that rat king, we will definitely be able to kill it easily!"
There were already voices of self-doubt in the team, and they were worried that they would encounter more rats in the future, so they kept cheering themselves on.
The truth is, however, that they haven't even covered half the distance yet.
From the relaxed appearance at the beginning, to the solemn face of everyone now, the mentality of the entire team has undergone a fundamental change.
Squeak squeak...... Squeak squeak......
Suddenly, the nasty sound of the rat sounded around again, and everyone collectively changed color, only to see a mouse running out of the garbage heap quickly, holding a piece of rotten meat in its mouth, and it was followed by several people of the same kind, constantly squeaking, as if grabbing food, and people breathed a sigh of relief.
"Miss Sarah, don't be afraid, with us here, we will definitely protect you. These annoying rats are useless no matter how many they come! ”
Luo Lan looked at this scene, sneered and shook his head, until now, these people are still in the mood to please that woman, let alone capture the heart, don't they know that they have been used as a gun by that woman all along?
She's a woman who will do anything to get there!
Squeak squeak...... Squeak squeak...... Squeak squeak......
"I hear them all, I think I hear a lot of rats......" said someone suspiciously.
"We've killed so many, how can there be any rats, did you hear it wrong?"
The briquettes suddenly became very vigilant, and a pair of cat's eyes kept looking at their surroundings.
Luo Lan also seemed to hear the voice, his ears moved slightly, and his face changed greatly: "The rats are coming, there are a lot of them, it's not good, it's a swarm of rats!" ”
His voice fell, and many people were ready to laugh at him, but a big black rat poured in from all directions like a tide, the sewers, the abandoned houses around, the end of the road, the retreat in the rear, the black pressure of the number was estimated to be more than a hundred thousand!
The team was surrounded by a swarm of rats in an instant, with no way to go to the sky and no door to enter the ground, these rats seemed to be pervasive, and their movements were so agile that even bullets could not effectively lock on to them.
The word horror was written on the faces of the people, and there was no hesitation Hundreds of muskets opened fire at the same time, bullets, firearms, tearing a hole in the rat swarm, but immediately the darkness was replenished.
Endless, inexhaustible!
The carcasses of the rats were already strewn all over the people's feet, but that was a drop in the bucket for the entire rat colony.
Just when Luo Lan felt that the team was about to be wiped out by the rat swarm, this group of teams, which were basically composed of bounty hunters and a small number of pirates, suddenly burst out with powerful combat effectiveness.
Basically, everyone has a special skill, sword light, sword shadow, gun bullet, some of them have great power, they can break the wall with one punch, and they can lift the stone wall and smash it out, easily crushing a large area.
It's just a pity that there isn't even a single Devil Fruit ability in the crowd, and if there is a natural system, the problem at hand is not a problem at all.
Luo Lan's strength was very weak at this time, he held a long sword made of steel, and performed a simple chop, but basically as long as he handed out a sword, the mouse was cut off by a sword.
The team fought and retreated, constantly seeking some houses to rely on.
The briquette may have been frightened by the large number of rats, and it clung to Luo Lan's shoulder, its tail and back lifted to the sky.
Suddenly, a giant rat bounced up from the stone next to it and bit Luo Lan's neck.
The briquette struck at the right time, and the cat fist swung out, and there were a few wisps of jumping electric light on its black cat's claws, and the mouse was slapped away with a slap, and the electric light burst out to wrap the mouse all over the body, and it was so electric that the whole body convulsed, and it was charred black.
After doing all this, the briquettes slapped their chests with their paws very humanely, which really scared Ben Meow to death.
The battle that happened on his shoulder Luo Lan could see it clearly just now, he was about to slash the mouse with a sword, but he didn't expect the briquette to react faster than him.
And those few rays of electric light that burst out from the claws of the briquettes, Luo Lan fell into deep thought.
