Chapter 31: The Rats Attack
After leaving the grain and oil station, Liu Cheng did not lead the convoy too far, but only stopped two kilometers away. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Here you have to take the asphalt mountain road to turn to the river beach under the mountain, if you go along the provincial road, you should go to Luxi Town, Liu Cheng is not confident to be able to break through at this time. It happened that there were only two families in this area, and the group was directly divided into two teams to investigate the two houses respectively, and they were lucky not to even have a single alien. After resting here for an hour, Liu Cheng ordered the team to continue to set off, during which he asked everyone to gather together to summarize the experience of the battle just now, which made everyone gain a lot.
The rugged mountain road down the mountain winds around one side of the hillside, although there are no scrapped cars on the side of the road blocking the road, but the speed of the convoy is still not fast, in this dense woods Liu Cheng even ordered everyone to get out of the car directly to follow, guarding around the convoy. After experiencing the attack of the mutant rats at the grain and gas station, Liu Cheng expected that such a forest would become a paradise for mutant creatures, and he didn't want everyone in the car to be able to fight back when the mutant beasts attacked. And this will be the end of the survivor transfer, and the convoy must be guarded by people around it.
Everything was fine when he first entered the woods, but I don't know when Liu Cheng vaguely felt that the team was being targeted by something, but even if he let the spirit sparrow investigate carefully, he still didn't find anything abnormal. In this regard, Liu Cheng could only remind everyone to be vigilant in case of a sneak attack, but when the convoy left the wooded area, there was no accident. This not only did not make Liu Cheng feel relaxed, but instead of making his nerves tighter, because the feeling of being peeping became stronger instead of weakening. It was as if the other party was secretly watching before, but now it has become a naked, naked surveillance, so that even other people feel it.
"Boss, I feel that there is something wrong with this ghost place, it seems that something is eyeing us, but I can't find the location of the other party, I'm afraid we are going to be in trouble." After leaving the enveloping area of the woods, Sien felt that aggressive gaze become more intense and unscrupulous, so he came to Liu Cheng and reminded him.
"You feel it too?" Liu Cheng nodded, he didn't expect Si'en to be much more sensitive than others, but after thinking about it, he was a spiritual evolution, and his perception of these unwarranted perceptions was definitely stronger than others, although he had not evolved perception skills.
Liu Cheng looked up at the mechanical watch in his hand, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and then looked at the environment of the river beach, and finally decided to set up camp near here. This river beach is full of flat rivers, no matter where the convoy stops, if there is a mutant creature attack, the effect is the same, there is no geographical advantage to rely on on your side, so simply stop here early, so that everyone can rest properly and replenish energy. All Liu Cheng can think of now is to respond to change with the same.
"It's getting dark, fence the car, do some necessary fortifications around, collect as much fuel as you can, build a ready-to-use campfire around it, and then everyone hurry up and rest in place, we will be stationed here tonight, we may face the attack of mutated creatures at any time, so that everyone is ready for battle." Let Sien arrange these things, Liu Cheng is still a little worried, "Cai Lianxue and Ye Lei will come with me." In the end, Liu Cheng decided to investigate, although he didn't know the specific location of the creature in the secret, but his intuition told him that the other party must be hiding in the mountains and forests, so if there is danger tonight, it is most likely from here.
Returning to the woods again, Liu Cheng found that most of the sunlight had been blocked by the dense woods, and the woods looked very dark, but this could not stop Liu Cheng from going in to find out. The slightest flame swayed on the blade, spreading the firelight, Liu Cheng did not blindly choose to go in a certain direction, but stayed in place, his spiritual strength exceeded the imagination of ordinary people, and all the spirits were concentrated, and finally Liu Cheng captured a little different breath. The breath came from the ground, but it was not clear what the reason was, the breath was very vague, and Liu Cheng could only determine a general direction. Under his guidance, the sparrow was carefully searching this area, and Liu Cheng also hurried here.
This is a steep cliff face, the cliff is layered with rocks, and it is densely covered with gaps of various shapes, at first Liu Cheng didn't pay attention to this place at all, but when there was nothing to be gained from a circle of exploration, he shifted his attention to this place. At this time, under Liu Cheng's command, the sparrow chose a relatively large gap and drilled directly into it, because Liu Cheng doubted whether it could reach a place underground through these gaps. Since there is a high probability that the voyeur in the shadows is underground, is it possible that there is another world underground?
The sparrow's body is small and completely soul-based, so it is perfect for such a scout. Along the gaps between the rocks, the sparrows went deeper into the ground little by little, and every time a gap came to the end, the sparrow would change to another crack to continue to explore, which made Liu Cheng feel like he was walking a maze. However, it was not for nothing, and half an hour later the sparrow found a passage through the ground. At first, Liu Cheng wondered if this was a snake path of a mutated snake, but he didn't find anything like scales in it, and there were no traces of friction, obviously this is not a snake path. Another half an hour passed, and the sparrow finally found a mutant rat in the passage, which made Liu Cheng feel a lot of affection for the mutant mouse. However, this mutant rat is different from the mutant rat encountered in the grain and oil station before, this is the previous mountain mouse mutation, and the size is significantly larger than the rat in the grain and oil station.
Liu Cheng had a feeling that his group was being targeted by these mutated mountain rats. Although he has found their passage now, Liu Cheng has no way to deal with these guys, so he can only go back to the temporary station first and be ready for battle at any time.
When they returned to the station, they had set up a temporary camp, which was very simple but had a bit of a look, and Liu Cheng even found that in some places there were fences erected by wooden stakes. Gathering all the evolutionaries, Liu Cheng told his guess, and then began to arrange the battle sequence, and if there was a battle at night, he would follow this sequence.
Chen Chen of the water attribute was taken as a key protection object, and was responsible for treating the injured to stop the bleeding in the innermost part of the defense circle, Sien was also under key protection, staying with Chen Chen, using mental power to interfere with the rat group and being responsible for being everyone's eyes, several fire attribute evolutionaries lived on the roof of a small car, responsible for attacks in this direction, Li Moyuan and Cai Lianxue of the thunder attribute were responsible for long-range attacks on the roof of the other two small cars, while the two brothers Zhanhai Zhancheng of the earth attribute were responsible for close combat, and Liu Cheng and Ye Lei needed to take care of both inside and outside, Because the two of them have the strongest ability and the most rich combat experience, they naturally have to take care of them more in battle. The most important thing is that Liu Cheng can't be completely sure that the one staring at his group at this time must be mutant rats, and he doesn't know the specific number of this thing, so he and Ye Lei must be ready to support at any time.
As the night slowly shrouded, there began to be a change in the direction of the mountains and forests, and it was not necessary for the spirit sparrow to report the process to think that something in the dark had begun to move. And the surveillance and reconnaissance of the sparrow also confirmed Liu Cheng's guess that there were mutant rats coming out of the ground in the mountains and forests. But instead of rushing towards the temporary station as soon as they appeared, these red-eyed creatures quietly waited in the woods, as if waiting for the right moment, or something.
Liu Chengzheng hesitated to strike first, and the mutant rat swarm that had been hiding in the bushes had already emerged from the woods first. Since the temporary station was more than 200 meters away from the woods, no one else could see the situation over there except for Liu Cheng, who had a sparrow as his eyes. But in the darkness the sound of Soso's voice rang out, and everyone realized that the battle was about to begin. The group of mutant rats is approaching rapidly, and through the observation of the sparrow, Liu Cheng found that the number of this group of mutant rats is around fifty, which is five times that of his side, not to mention that there are two people here who have almost no combat effectiveness, this is a tough battle.
When the rat swarm approached a hundred meters, Liu Cheng suddenly shouted, "Light the outermost bonfire for me." With Liu Cheng's order, the fire attribute evolver immediately released his skill to ignite a circle of bonfires, and for a while, the fire was dazzling, illuminating most of the dark night sky. Darkness and the unknown are terrifying tones for anyone, at this time, the bonfire will illuminate the surroundings, and everyone who has recovered a certain vision can't help but feel relieved, as long as it is not a dark battle, they have some confidence, and at the same time, everyone has to praise Liu Cheng's uncertain prophet in their hearts. If these campfires are not prepared in advance, everyone will only be able to fight the mutated creatures with black eyes, and then the combat power of their side will plummet.
At this time, the rat swarm came closer, and Liu Cheng also saw some useful information:
Mutant Rat: The third order of the earth attribute, mutated from the mountain rat that is good at digging holes.
Cracked Claw - The hard rat claw is blessed with earth energy, and can send out energy claws with a tearing effect.
"It's a good thing these mutant rats are all melee abilities, otherwise we would have suffered." Quickly sharing the ability of the mutant rat with everyone, Liu Cheng was ready for battle. As soon as the rat swarm entered the attack range, the person with the long-range strike ability had already started attacking.
The shining thunder swayed, this was Cai Lianxue's first attack, when the first mutant rat was directly electrocuted into charcoal, followed by Li Moyuan, one after another ice blades spun at high speed and pounced into the rat group to bring up a large tent of blood, and occasionally one or two unlucky mutant rats were directly removed half of their heads. When the distance of the mutant rat group approached thirty meters, other fire attribute evolutionaries also took action, and for a while, the fire rain was sprinkled, the fireball exploded, and the circle of fire walls was even more powerful, connecting the circle of bonfires together, forming the first line of protection for the temporary camp.
The fierce counterattack at the first time did not deter the mutant rat swarm, but instead provoked the ferocity of these guys, devouring their dead companions while ferociously continuing to attack the defensive circle of the camp. With just one contact, several mutant rats broke through the 30-meter line and pounced on the camp. Seeing that a mutant rat broke through the defense line, the two brothers of Zhanhai Zhancheng roared and commanded the stone monkey who had already been summoned to stand by the side to meet them. This time, because of the preparation in advance, they had time to attach stone armor to the stone monkey, which greatly strengthened the stone monkey's defense ability and was able to hold out in battle for a longer time.
As time went on, more mutant rats broke through the first line of defense, although these mutant rats were injured, but once they were close to them, it was also very dangerous, at this time Ye Lei had also joined the battle, only Liu Cheng frowned and did not move in place.
