In the darkness ahead, there was the sound of "Xi Xi Suo", the sound was not loud, but it was exceptionally clear in this deep passage. Finally thinking clearly, the two maintenance personnel had already stood up and strode towards Panis, the lights above their heads flickering on the walls of the passage, illuminating the huge gopher with an extremely long tail and covered in wet brown fur not far away.

It was a mutated brown rat that was a close relative of the black-backed rat that Lowe had trapped in the wilderness, but it was also very different.

Brown rats are larger, they do not eat humus, and feed mainly on plant roots and insects. Moreover, they prefer raw meat with blood.

The mutant brown rat had obviously just had a full meal, its belly was not shriveled, and two bean-sized rats were spinning and shimmering, glowing with a cold red glow.

The mutated creatures of the wilderness are sensitive to danger, and the brown rat has sensed the aura of danger emanating from the human woman on the other side, and it has no intention of attacking the other party, especially after feeling the danger and having just eaten a full meal.

It slowly retreated, turning around and scurrying into the darkness farther away.

Panis watched as the mutant brown rat departed, as it fled into the darkness, as it was accurately swallowed up by a thick whip that suddenly protruded from the top of the passage, and then quickly retracted into the darkness.

There was no smell of blood in the fishy and musty air, and the whiplash did not seem to spoil the integrity of the brown rat.

No smell of blood doesn't mean no killing. For example, swallow raw! Swallow it raw like a snake feeding!

It's been a long time since Panis has seen snakes in the wilderness, creatures that have to crawl on the ground for the vast majority of their bodies, and it is extremely difficult to survive in the radiation-filled wilderness. Moreover, they are not as quick as other beings to adapt to the mutation of their bodies, and a mass of irregular mutations grows on top of their slender bodies, which is fatal to their actions.

Therefore, the representatives of this cold-blooded animal have either been ruthlessly devoured by the wilderness, or they have taken refuge in the shadowy underground. Like the snake that Panis had just seen swallowing a brown rat, a brown rat larger than the chief's lamb, it swallowed it whole.

In terms of size, this reptile might be more called a "python", but Panis still thinks of it as a snake because it's poisonous!

It's a venomous snake with the massive size of a python reptile, and of course, it's definitely mutated.

Women mostly have a natural fear of cold-blooded animals like snakes, and the fierce Panis is also a woman after all, and she is no exception.

The mission entrusted by the tavern owner did not seem to be as simple as she had originally expected.

For catching prey, Lowe has always used the simplest and most effective method, even after being injured, it has not changed in the slightest.

Mutant wolves have always been in the middle of the wilderness food chain, unless they encounter those human abilities, they are often on the side of the advantage, and they are used to chasing their prey for a while after winning the game, and running vigorously will make the blood in the prey flow fully throughout the body, and it will taste more delicious.

This is a huge mutant wolf, with white wolf fur all over its body and a human-like body, very similar to the white wolf king that Luo once killed in the Colosseum.

But this adult mutant wolf is stronger and more ruthless.

In order to have enough physical strength to escape, it has gnawed off half of the body of its kind, and after running violently, the wolf meat swallowed in its belly has completely turned into nutrients and has been absorbed by it.

The mutant wolf had no intention of running away, the gray-skinned monster behind it had chased it for half of the wilderness, and the monster didn't seem to be in a hurry to catch up with it.

This monster seems to be practicing its running skills with itself!

The mutant wolf suddenly had the idea. Of course, it was unaware of the existence of the word "sparring" in the human lexicon.

Since you can't escape, choose the wilderness where you were born and grew up here as the final battlefield.

It roared angrily, staring at the gray-skinned human boy on the other side who didn't seem to be chasing after it with all his might.

"The speed is acceptable, the body coordination is insufficient, and there is an unnecessary waste of physical strength in the process of chasing prey. Remember, always make sure you have enough stamina to deal with a disaster that will strike at any time, even though it may not actually befall you, and the wilderness will never give anyone a chance to do it again. ”

A calm, magnetic voice slowly came from far away in the wilderness, reaching the ears of the boy chasing the mutated white wolf.

The mutant wolf felt an even stronger threat in the slow-moving wilderness, and it slowly leaned down, on all fours, its back slightly arched, ready to kill or be killed.

"The mutant wolf is the most common opponent in the wilderness, and it is also the lowest of the many mutant creatures. Only by knowing your opponent well can you defeat it in the end. ”

Luo sat down beside the boy with messy short hair, glanced up at the mutant white wolf who could pounce at any moment, and then turned to look at his companion next to him.

"The simplest and most direct way to understand a people is to dissect its people little by little, imprinting the direction of each of its veins, the position and shape of each bone into the bone marrow. So now, you can get a good understanding of the wild mutant wolf group from this wolf. ”

Luo, who has been surviving in the wilderness for a long time, has his own unique views on hunting skills, and begins to teach this boy who has attached himself little by little.

He needs to give Yi, to Panis and the Night a powerful guardian. And this boy barely made Luo feel qualified.

Lowe wasn't sure if the other party was a boy or a girl right now, but it didn't matter. As long as Luo wants, he can change the other party's gender at any time, and only needs a small, not a surgery.

Lowe's knowledge of the anatomy of the human body is deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

And Luo is not worried that the other party will be treacherous, from the moment the boy chooses to belong to himself, he has the absolute control of the other party's life.

Luo didn't know where his confidence came from, but he didn't have the slightest doubt about it.

Just like the wilderness to the mutated creatures above the wilderness, it is a kind of crushing from the life level.

The mutant wolf had pounced on its prey, and of the two, it chose the grayish-white skin that chased after it.

The battle was not intense, it didn't last too long, and most of the time, the boy spent dissecting and exploring the mysteries of the mutant wolf group's bodies.

"Wilderness doesn't need meaningless decorations, you don't need to show anyone that you're stronger and more agile than your opponents. Compared to the physical strength, time, and success rate it takes to break its thick hind legs, it is obviously more appropriate to pinch or tear off the two meat balls between its legs. Never forget your opponent's unique weaknesses, including their unique physiology, mental state, level of injury, and position. ”

Luo said as he respectfully handed the boy the piece of mutant wolf meat in front of him and put it in his mouth.

He didn't plan to let the boy eat wolf meat, and the ability to clean up the battlefield was also one of the skills that the boy had to master. Fang Cai's fighting and dissection, there was already enough blood and fine scraps of meat left at the killing site, and that was the boy's food.

The boy did not refute this unfair treatment, let alone raise objections, he had absolute obedience and reverence for Luo.

"When you're done cleaning up the battlefield, you go to the col, where there's a united group, and you learn from them about the need for teamwork."

Lowe pointed to a mountain col in the distance, which he remembered was home to a large colony of mutant hyenas.

Teamwork is crucial, something almost every mercenary must master, but the two elderly maintenance personnel who follow Panis into the underground passage are clearly not mercenaries.

So, they rejected Panis's suggestion to turn off the overhead searchlight.

Darkness is the breeding ground for fear in everyone's heart, and the fear of darkness is the nature of human beings. From this point of view, it seems that the vast majority of the supernatural beings in the wilderness can no longer be classified as human.

The two maintenance workers didn't see the poisonous snake that had devoured the brown rat, so they were still complaining that the hateful mutant rat had scared their aging nerves.

"Women are synonymous with cowardice by nature, and mercenary women are no exception! Didn't this damn mutant rat scare you, dear little woman? ”

The short, stocky maintenance man who had been in the middle of the line began to whisper to Panis, after rejecting Panis's offer, and strode up to her, in a posture that wanted to pass Panis, and act as a pathfinder herself.

"If you don't want to die, you'd better retreat behind me, and even though it seems like you're not going to be able to stand anywhere in this passage, I still advise you to follow my advice!"

Panis didn't stop the other from crossing her movements, but she still spoke to persuade her.

"Shut up! Woman, your task is only to protect us, as for how to go and how fast to go, we are not obliged to listen to your command! Am I right? Mr. Brown! ”

The maintenance worker had gray hair and patches of age spots on his face. He crossed Panis and stood at the front of the group, the searchlight above him scanning the dark tunnels ahead, finding nothing out of the ordinary.

The other maintenance man, known as Mr. Brown, was not as reckless as his companion, and he still stood behind Panis, whispering a word to his companion who had turned around and roared angrily.

"Man, now is not a good time to be machismo, come back obediently, oh! My God, what did I see! ”

Panis ignored the pudgy old man's provocation, she bent down slightly, staring at the two blood-red lights that suddenly appeared in the darkness behind the puddy old man, and her slender legs began to build.

The Humpty Dumpty Old Man's growl grew quieter, and he seemed to notice the anomaly of his companion and Panis, as well as the stench and coldness coming from behind him.

He turned slowly, the straight pillar of the searchlight above his head swiping with his fat body, gliding swiftly over the mottled walls of the cavern, eventually sliding onto a pillar with dense black scales.

At the top of the pillar there were two dim red dots that were constantly flickering on and off, and the red dots gradually turned into narrow slits, staring coldly at the prey in front of them.

A mutant python that is more than three feet long and as thick as a bucket!
