Chapter Fifty-Six: Complete the Migration!

"Squeak!"

Then you will protect me!

Keep up!

Now that the Shadow had arrived, it was obviously impossible to get her back, so Ron had to let her follow him and provide some protection that seemed to be nothing.

............

"Hahaha, get rich!"

"A lot of rat tails, can be exchanged for a lot of vanda!"

At the other end of the tunnel, the battle between the humans was over, and the ratcatchers who were shot in the knee by Ron were all shot by their companions, and the uninjured ratcatchers, who accounted for half of the original number, survived less than a third of the moonlight rat territory.

Now, smiling, groping for the corpses of those who had traveled with them, pulling out the targets of their trip, as well as the remaining arrows and supplies, they were on the lookout for their kind who did the same.

However, what they didn't expect was that blood had already attracted even more terrifying hunters!

"Gollum~!"

"Gollum~!"

The sewage that was slightly below the surface of the feet suddenly bubbled, and at the same time rose slightly like a tide, and the blood-stained sewage quietly retreated in color and returned to dark green.

But the change was not noticed by the rat traps, only Ron and the Shadow were observing.

"Squeak!"

The meaningless chirping, but it was instinctive, and the hair of Ron and Shadow suddenly exploded, turning into two fur balls, one brown and one yellow, one black and one gray, and they quickly retreated, moving their bodies away from the water surface of the sewer, and even climbed the wall for it!

............

"Hey, it's a great harvest today, it's time to go back!"

"Change to Vanda at the door, and then go to the Copper Crown Hotel for a nice drink!"

Tucking a handful of rat tails into his backpack, Jarris planned a night of enjoyment, but never looked squarely at the zombie corpses of his kind, including his former companion Charlie.

The sewers are dangerous, this is the consensus of the whole of Askatra, all the poor people who enter the sewers have already pinned their heads to the waistband of their trousers, and death is death, and there is no need to explain at all, and there is no need to explain it.

Apparently, the other surviving rat hunters thought the same thing, and they quickly stuffed their backpacks and walked back with a satisfied smile.

After taking a few steps, Jarris suddenly felt something soft under his feet, unlike the splashes of water in the previous steps, as if he had stepped on a rotten cabbage gang, and then a sharp pain came from the soles of his feet.

"Damn, did you step on a nail?"

Cursing, Jarris lowered his torch and lifted his right foot to see what had hit the bottom of his foot. However, with the firelight, it was pale bones in the eyes!

"End...... It's over!"

The excited smile and the angry curse all turned into white despair the moment he saw the change under his feet.

At some point, people who have entered the sewers have brought back a terrifying legend: there is an invisible monster in the sewers, which lurks in the water, silent, but extremely dangerous.

"Don't stand in the water, it's too dangerous!"

"If you feel soft under your feet, then the Grim Reaper's scythe is already on your neck!"

Jarris had heard a drunken old man mention it several times when he was drinking at the Coppercrown Hotel, but as time passed, Jarris, who had entered the sewers many times without encountering danger, subconsciously reduced the legend to legend. But now the pale foot bones that belong to him make the horror lurking in the depths of his heart slowly emerge, and finally occupy all of Jarris's thoughts!

"The Invisible Death!!

............

"Peng~"

The soles of the feet were so deep that they slammed into the waves that were several meters high, and both the living rat catchers and the gasping corpses were swept in, and the splatters of sewage were even thrown into Ron and Shadow, who were climbing high above the walls.

Ron gasped as he watched the translucent gelatin shrink into a translucent mass that clogged the sewers, and the rattrap inside it struggled to break free from the bones and flesh, and was extremely glad that his body reacted instinctively.

"Squeak!"

Mud monsters!

But how can it be so big!

In his past memories, Ron searched for the name and image of the monster in front of him, but compared to the mass in front of him, the mud monster in Ron's memory was like a mouse at the foot of an elephant.

However, even the smallest mud monsters, which are not much larger than the Moonlight Rat, are natural predators of the Moonlight Rat, and they like to lurk in the sewage, waiting for the Moonlight Rats to pass by and splash up, wrap the Moonlight Rat, and then melt away.

So, after countless generations of hunting, the Moonlight Rat developed an instinctive feeling for predators, which also allowed Ron and Shadow to avoid today's catastrophe.

"Squeak!"

Let's go!

Return directly to the territory!

There was no need to go to another road to defend himself, and Ron immediately turned his head and headed towards the center of the Moonlight Rat territory. Compared to the giant mud monster, the human rat catcher is no longer a threat. Once this mud monster floods into the Moonlight Rat territory, the destruction of the entire population will only be a matter of moments.

The shadow following Ron also understood the importance of the matter, and she didn't say a word, just running after Ron. For a split second, she had never felt death so close!

............

"Squeak!"

How many moonshine rats didn't get in!

"Squeak!"

Not much, about a little more than a third!

Compared to the crowd when they left, most of the moonlight rats had already entered the tunnel and headed for the deep karst cave. In order to maintain order, the four group masters, One-Eye, and One Ear have also entered the tunnel, and the only remaining ones who maintain order outside are Longbeard and Ron's leader guard.

"Squeak!"

Speed up!

We don't have much time left!

Ron's face was solemn, and although he couldn't tell anything from the short-haired rat's face, the worry in his eyes was immediately conveyed to Longbeard.

On the way back, the sound of the tide behind him told Ron that the giant mud monster was following him, ready to devour the flesh of any life!

"Squeak!"

Hurry, Hurry, Hurry!

Ron's order was immediately carried out, and the movements of the Leader's Guard accelerated with the shouts and chirpings of Longbeard, which naturally led to the movements of the remaining Moonlight Rats, making the chain that burrowed into the tunnel even faster.

Then the sound of the waves sounded!

"Wow, whoa, whoa!"

Although it was still outside the dark vision range of the Moonlight Rat, Ron's keen ears could already hear the sound of the giant mud monster surging and even the dull collision of bones and weapons inside the giant mud monster that had not yet been digested.

"Squeak!"

Speed up!

The slippery and drooping gum slowly appeared in Ron's eyes, and then suddenly fell, sweeping dozens of moonlight rats, and the moonlight rats that had not yet entered the tunnel were instinctively driven to flee in all directions, but instead rushed into the arms of the giant mud monster.

"Squeak!"

Beard, Shadow, go in first!

Letting the beard, the shadow, and the leader guard into the tunnel, Ron's eyes scanned the scurrying rats, and then the gummy tentacles that had turned into several stripes, gritted his teeth, pushed away the moonlight rats that were still trying to get into the tunnel, and drilled backwards into the tunnel.

Then, the power of his whole body exploded, and Ron went backwards while digging frantically, blocking the entrance to the tunnel with a massive amount of earth!
