Volume 2 Tales of the Night Chapter 54 Fierce Mutation (I)

With the appearance of the first giant rat, soon a dozen giant rats appeared one after another, flying up and down the garbage heaps in search of food. They will eat everything they can eat, whether it is spoiled food, all kinds of disgusting bugs, and even those rats that have not mutated. Watching the giant rat ferociously devour other rats, it was impossible to imagine that just a few days ago, they were actually the same species.

The white night lurking in the dark suddenly moved, and the giant rat closest to him didn't even see the enemy's appearance clearly, only felt a black shadow flash in front of him, and then lost consciousness, until the white night launched an attack on the second giant rat, and a red line slowly appeared on the neck of the giant rat, and then the flesh and blood separated, and the whole rat's head fell to the ground with a thud.

The White Night's actions are like a gust of wind, sometimes like a hurricane, which will wring everything that passes by, and sometimes like a light wind, so soft that people don't realize that they are being blown by the wind, and by the time the enemy realizes that they are dead.

The giant rats were unprepared for the sudden killing, and by the time they realized that someone was killing them, their numbers had been halved, and the remaining giant rats reacted. These giant rats were timid and cautious before they appeared, but once they were attacked, they became very violent, and one by one they screamed and rushed towards the white night.

White Night easily slew the two giant rats that pounced, but the third giant rat that pounced on it was very different, one of its mouths turned into a three-petaled mouth similar to that of a rabbit, and when it opened, it was like an insect cracker. Slightly smaller in size but much faster than the other giant rats, it shot like an arrow into the night, its insect-like mouthparts splitting to the extreme, and then spewing out a thin stream of venom.

At the moment when the venom sprayed, Bai Ye's skin felt slightly numb, this was an instinctive feeling of danger, he immediately knew that these venoms were not easy to deal with, it was no joke to let it splash a little, Bai Ye slid out of the way for a few meters to the side, and had let go of the venom spray line, and where he landed, there was just a piece of abandoned stone countertop, Bai Ye gently used his foot to pick up the entire stone countertop.

When the poisonous rat just wanted to squirt out the second mouthful of venom, a flat marble table suddenly appeared in front of it, and the poisonous rat that was caught off guard hit it headlong without any suspense, and under the high-speed impact, its head was completely deflated, and all the venom that had just been sprayed out was suffocated back into its mouth.

With a muffled thud, the rat fell to the ground along with the shattered marble, and then never got up again. In a short period of time, a small part of its head had disappeared, and large patches of fine foam continued to emerge, and a yellowish mist rose through the mist, through which its internal tissues and hard skull could be seen rapidly melting and disappearing, apparently due to the venom. And some of the venom sprayed on the discarded stone countertop, and it eroded the ten-centimeter-thick marble!

"What a venom!" Bai Ye said to himself with some solemnity: "Is this a giant rat that has eaten the seed of evolution?" But apart from venom, it doesn't seem to be much stronger than an ordinary giant rat in other aspects? This venom is very special, and it seems that it needs to be in contact with air to exert its power. ”

However, then Bai Ye's pupils contracted slightly, because among the remaining five giant rats, one of them was exactly the same as the poisonous rat!

This poisonous rat is not a first-order evolutionary creature, but a species that evolved on its own! And it seems that it has just evolved, because if there had been before, then Dong Sizhou would definitely have suffered heavy casualties in the process of leading people to hunt giant rats, and it might even be wiped out.

In just a few days after the end of the world, not only did mutated creatures like giant rats appear, but even some giant rats went one step further and evolved this terrifying venom ability.

The rest of the giant rats have come up from all around, Bai Ye didn't pay attention to the other giant rats, but carefully guarded against the poisonous rat, such a powerful venom is that Bai Ye has never seen it a few times, of course he doesn't dare to let it splash, not to mention that he is only a first-order evolutionary now, I'm afraid that even if he rises to two more levels, he won't be able to withstand the corrosion of the venom.

Just in case, Bai Ye suddenly turned on the power of the phantom body, and a dodge appeared next to a giant rat, and kicked the giant rat away, and the direction of flight was the location of the poisonous rat, and the mouthparts of the poisonous rat had just opened, and he was smashed by the giant rat.

The miserable giant rat was sprayed with venom, squeaking and screaming, its fur quickly melting, and the downed rat just got up when it passed a shadow, and then a head fell to the ground.

The last three giant rats were frightened, squeaked and squeaked and turned around and ran away. White Night chased after two of them, slew them, and then unhurriedly followed the last giant rat until it burrowed into a pile of garbage.

After a few shuttles through the sea of garbage, the giant rats found a hole in the bottom of the garbage heap, which was supposed to be an abandoned sewer entrance, and it seemed that the giant rats had come out of it.

No sooner had the giant rat burrowed into the hole than a black flash of light pierced the garbage heap, piercing it in half. Then Bai Ye used his hands and feet together, and in a few clicks, he picked up the garbage aside, revealing the sewer hole that could just hold a person, Bai Ye didn't care about the stench emitted from it, picked up a few tools that seemed to come in handy in the garbage heap, and jumped into the sewer.

The passage below is the drainage system of the former Anping County.

Yes, it was, and now, it's not just about draining the sewer.

The fusion between the planes can really be described as a miracle, and even the white night can't tell what kind of power and existence can do all this. That kind of power, even if he just thought about it, Hakuya would feel the lack of his imagination, because no matter what he thought, he couldn't understand what kind of existence could do such a thing.

It's like a great costume designer weaving together two completely different styles of clothing, and everything is so natural and flawless. For example, the sewer that Bai Ye was in was obviously fused with some underground cave on the heterotopic plane, turning into an incomparably vast underground tunnel.

Yes, despite the filthy and stinking nature of the place, the underground spaces of the two planes really blend perfectly.

As soon as he entered the underground, Bai Ye noticed that this place was different. Although in the new world, the air is full of magical energy, but here, it is even more intense, so rich that it makes Bai Ye a little uncomfortable. If the new world had just arrived, and the demonic energy outside was as strong as here, I'm afraid 90% of the people would have turned into living corpses! This rich aura of magical energy must have something to do with the mutation of the giant rat.

Bai Ye walked cautiously through the deep underground tunnels, his steps light and soft, like a nimble cat, moving silently. The filth on his body made the smell of his body blend well with this filthy space, which made it difficult for dangerous creatures who relied on their sense of smell underground to discover his existence.

Bai Ye's eyes glowed with a faint golden light, and the light kept changing with the change of ambient light, and the scenery in the tunnel became clearer. In this tunnel, some glowing moss can occasionally be seen, which are not in their original earth form, and Bai Ye can't tell if they are mutated from the earth's moss or from an alien plane.

As he walked, Bai Ye suddenly stopped, silently stuck to the cave wall, slowly swam to the top of the cave, and disappeared into the darkness.

There was a low rustle in the darkness, and a giant rat came out, the disproportionately large nose on its head kept moving, as if it was looking for something to eat, the giant rat had mutated, its body had become larger, and the need for food was extremely strong.

The white night, which was quietly stinging in the dark, suddenly moved! The "Soul Cutter" stabbed out like lightning, stabbing into the upper end of the giant rat's nose, penetrating the upper and lower jaws, and pinning it firmly to the ground. The giant rat screamed wildly, its four short, sharp claws clawing desperately at the ground, and the rubble splattered, digging a hole in the solid rock in the blink of an eye.

With a stroke of his hand, Bai Ye cut the entire head of the giant rat, and the giant rat's body twitched violently, and then fell to the ground and did not move.

Despite the darkness of the tunnel, the muddy and rough road, White Night's eyes could clearly distinguish the marks of the giant rat's walk, so he continued to walk into the depths of the darkness, and it didn't take long for him to find a giant rat's nest. There are more than 30 juvenile giant rats in the nest, the large ones are almost the size of adult giant rats, and the small ones have not yet opened their eyes.

Bai Ye looked at these little giant rats, and a worried look appeared in his eyes. The larger rats were supposed to mutate with their parents, but the youngest, apparently newborn, were born so big. This means that the mutated genes of the giant rat have stabilized within a few days, and it will become a mature new species in the future.

If this species were still reproducing at the same rate as rats, it would be a huge problem. It's not that I haven't seen huge rats in my previous life, but it was all a year after the end of the world, the rats mutated for a long time and gradually changed. In the process of gradual change of genes, all aspects of life will become balanced and stable, and while the body size becomes larger, the fecundity will decline to a certain extent, so in the previous life, I have not heard of any place that was destroyed by the rat colony, so the giant rat in the previous life has always been an important source of food for various mutated creatures and humans.

But now the giant rats here are not like this, their sudden and ferocious mutations, it is very likely to leave some hidden dangers in the genes, such as fecundity does not decrease but increases is possible, this hidden danger may erupt one day in the future, bringing a devastating blow to this species, but before that, it will be humans who will suffer first!
