Chapter 10: The Nezumi Attack
On the fifth day of coming to the new world, the hunting team found another small group around a cave five kilometers away from them, there were about seventy or eighty of them, and they were very wary of Lin Yue and others who came with weapons, Lin Yue sighed slightly, knowing that they had also begun to form their own order, Lin Yue told them that he had no malicious intentions, and then left with everyone.
The people in that small group are also Lin Yue's school, but now that everyone has their own belonging, it is already difficult to get along with each other, Lin Yue can imagine that within a radius of more than ten miles, there must be many such small groups, after all, Lin Yue's school is close to 10,000 people, plus some shops and houses around, there are almost 10,000 people, even if they are scattered, killed by wild beasts, and starved to death, there are at least four or five thousand people, and some of these four or five thousand people are in a state of wandering, and some people must have formed a group.
In the days to come, there will inevitably be conflicts between these groups for their own development, and it is inevitable that they will rub and merge with each other. However, the situation on their side is not bad, the three densely populated places dozens of kilometers away in the far east must have been a river of blood at this time, which was the center of the city before the Great Crossing, and the population there must be extremely large at this time, and in order to survive, it is inevitable to fight each other.
Today's hunting team achieved very good results, and they caught a wild boar, which was much more ferocious than in its previous life, and its physique was also very large, and there were seven or eight jelly bodies in it, which made it even stronger.
But fortunately, Lin Yue was not a vegetarian, and it took some effort to finally hunt it, but several people were injured, and Lin Yue hurriedly asked people to carry them back to Yuandong. Yuandong also set up a temporary ambulance at this time, don't think about Chinese medicine and Western medicine, but the people of the life team found some plants containing penicillin, which can be used as herbal medicine to treat wounds.
Penicillin, also known as antibiotic, has a great therapeutic effect on wound infections. Zhao Minghui has a huge contribution to this aspect, he is worthy of being a teacher of biology, and he can also identify those unfamiliar plants through some experimental methods, such as those plants containing penicillin, which he discovered.
After Lin Yue returned to Yuandong, it was already early, but at this time, the hunting team led by Zhao Longtao had not yet returned, Lin Yue was a little worried, and was ready to gather people to look for it. As soon as he gathered the manpower, Zhao Longtao came back, but of the original thirteen people, only eleven came back, and half of them were injured, Lin Yue was shocked and hurriedly asked them what was going on.
"A bunch of rat-looking creatures that walk on two feet have attacked us!" Zhao Longtao was also injured at this time, he choked with difficulty, and said: "There are about twenty of these beasts, and they move very fast, and what is even more terrifying is that they can actually use weapons, and their cooperation with each other is also very organized. After confronting them for a while, we found them to be very difficult and immediately evacuated, but two people were killed! ”
Lin Yue's face changed when he heard this, it was a rat man, this animal is very sensitive and extremely intelligent, it is definitely a nightmare for all animals, what makes Lin Yue feel strange is that in his previous life, Lin Yue did not meet a rat man in the range of Yuandong.
"Could it be the butterfly effect?" Lin Yue thought of a possibility, although Lin Yue hadn't made any big moves since he crossed over, he had also done a lot of things, perhaps this difference had already caused a butterfly effect, at least attracting the attention of the rat people.
"All the personnel stopped what they were doing, increased their vigilance, and increased the number of patrols fivefold." Lin Yue immediately issued an order to suspend the work of the people in the Yuandong, and let the girls and the injured return to the cave, leaving only more than fifty people to stand guard around.
At this time, Lin Yue was not nervous, the fierce reputation of the rat man was famous in his previous life, even if Lin Yue was very confident in his skills, but it was unlucky to fall into the rat crowd. Lin Yue only hoped that the number of rat people would not be very large at this time, and he would not follow Zhao Longtao's traces here.
But this is unlikely, the rat man is a very persistent animal, and he will not stop until he kills his prey, not to mention that they are very good at tracking, and it is estimated that after a while, they will chase here. Fortunately, the construction team has built a fence around it, and although this fence does not have much effect on the large beast like the giant wolf, it is very effective in keeping these rat people at bay. The average height of the rat people is about one meter, and the fence is one and a half meters high, which is a big obstacle for them.
Lin Yue was assigning manpower to stand guard and patrol, when Zheng Hai came over and said very solemnly: "Lin Yue, what is the level of intelligence of these rat people. ”
Lin Yue knew what he was worried about, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Intelligence is very high, but it is not yet at the level of humans, they can use tools, but they can't use fire yet." ”
Zheng Hai paused for a long time, and then said, "Do they have any language?" ”
Lin Yue was stunned when he heard this, then sighed and said, "Yes, although they are not very perfect, they have begun to have some language systems, at least simple communication is no problem." ”
Zheng Hai's face changed, and he didn't say anything more. Lin Yue knew what he was worried about, turned his head to look at the fence not far away and said, "Don't worry too much, the number of nezumi groups is generally between twenty and fifty, and I heard Long Tao say that the number of nezumi who attacked them is only about twenty, and we have no problem blocking them with this one fence." ”
Zheng Hai nodded, barely showing a smile.
The sky soon darkened, and after such a long time, the figure of the rat man had not appeared for a long time, but Lin Yue became more vigilant, because compared to humans, the rat people were more suitable for night combat, and sneak attacks were a means they often exercised.
However, it is not a way to let all the people work here all the time, Lin Yue divided more than fifty people into three classes, and then let the first class, which was more tired, go to rest first, and then change shifts for an hour.
There were many girls in the cave who shouted for help, and Lin Yue couldn't get rid of them, so he agreed to let them pick up wooden spears to help patrol.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and the sound of chirping insects around makes everyone more and more nervous, and they have not encountered much danger since they crossed over, but at this time, the invisible threat of the nezumi made them feel unprecedented fear, because they began to die, and two of their companions were killed by the nezumi.
The look of horror on their faces Lin Yue saw in his eyes, which made Lin Yue very worried about them, but he was helpless, because these people had not experienced much fighting. At this time, what Lin Yue could do was to recall the information about the rat man as much as possible.
In his previous life, Lin Yue didn't fight with the rat man very often, but the amazing cooperation of the rat man made him deeply impressed. They tend to use a small number of nezumi as bait to attract the attention of the enemy, and then sneak up from behind with a large army, so they are very good at timing.
Just as Lin Yue was thinking, an exclamation suddenly came from the position of the east fence, and Lin Yue hurriedly ran over, only to see that above the fence, there was actually a human head with blurred flesh and blood, ulceration and pus.
"It is. Cuong's head! One of the girls screamed.
Cuong? It's a boy who went out hunting with Zhao Longtao. Lin Yue thought about it carefully, the secret way was not good, and hurriedly asked everyone to retreat, and then turned around and shouted to Liao Huan, who was running towards this side: "Old Liao, hurry back, take people to guard the fence in the west, the rat man is playing a trick of attacking the west!" ”
Liao Huan was shocked when he heard this, and immediately turned around and quickly ran back to the fence in the west with a dozen people.
After Lin Yue glanced at the man, he asked a girl to call the other boys who were resting to come out and fight immediately. Now there is a patrol squad resting, ready to stay up late to patrol, but now that the nezumi have attacked, it is necessary to ensure that all the men are dispatched, because it is not known how many nezumi there are.
"The fierce battle is about to begin!" Lin Yue muttered to himself.
