Chapter 49: The Great Crisis of the Rat Swarm 3

The lights were bright, and dozens of burning torches not only lit up the entire small theater as if it were daylight outside, but even the chill seemed to be dispelled.

However, due to the cold weather outside and the snowy road, there were not many people in the small theater, only the pedestrians who had just walked into the small theater to see the big mouse that had bitten the little young master, and the staff who were sitting on the wooden tables placed under the stage of the small theater.

Next to the wooden table was a wooden shelf, and at this moment a notice written in pitch black ink was clear and bright in the firelight.

"Dear friends,

All you need is a rat tail, and you can come here in exchange for a vanda, the more you get, the more you get, the better, I have money!

Your friend: Tariq Golden Shield. ”

Apparently that's what Ron just heard. At this moment, the staff member's left hand side was already piled up with a stack of rat tails with dried dark red blood stains, while on his right hand side was a pile of vanda with slightly worn and patina.

"Squeak!"

Chieftain!

It seems to be the Iron Fang Group Master!

"Squeak!"

I see it!

Ron is more familiar with Iron Fang than Long Beard, having been in close contact with Iron Fang during the last Boss Challenge, and the scars on the rats imprisoned on the stage at this moment are matching the scars left by the last Boss Challenge.

But with a little is not in Ron's memory.

That is, the size of the iron fangs imprisoned in the iron cage at this moment has become much larger, and it is a full circle larger than when the task was assigned a few days ago!

And, what about Iron Fang's group leader guards, and what about the other three group leaders?

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

"See, see!"

"It was this big rat that bit the future young master of the Golden Shield family!"

"And I heard that the bite was quite hard, and half of my finger was bitten off in one bite!"

"Fortunately, I didn't eat it, and Lord Tariq immediately invited the bishop of the goddess Waukin, and it took a large bag of money to connect my fingers!"

"That's a big bag of money!"

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

Apparently the work of collecting rat tails was also quite boring, and the staff member in a coarse cotton coat and felt hat gestured as if he were there at the scene.

At the edge of the stage, Ron and the beard were hidden under a scarlet velvet curtain, revealing only their black noses and small fiery eyes, staring at the iron cage in the center of the stage not far ahead.

"Squeak!"

Chief, what now?

"Squeak!"

I need to think about it!

Having crept through the crack in the oak door of the small theater, until now quietly climbing up the stage along the corner, Ron and Longbeard had already spun half a circle along the small theater.

And during this time, except for the slight heaving of his chest with his breathing, Ron and Longbeard didn't see any movement from Iron Fang. It can only be said that Iron Fang is still alive, but not necessarily sober.

"Squeak!"

What to do?

Staring at the iron cage in front of him, Ron was a little embarrassed, if he ran out like this, he would definitely be seen by the humans under the stage, after all, they came to see the iron fangs.

But without getting close to the cage, Ron couldn't figure out what had happened to Iron Fang, why it had grown in size, and where the other Moonlight Rat Leader and their guards had gone.

However, while thinking about it, Ron suddenly remembered that he still had five skill points, as well as an ability that he had not used since activating the system: Detection!

"Hunter Detection Ability: Optionally activates Humanoid Tracking or Beast Tracking, consuming 5 Life Essence per minute. ”

As the thought emerged, Ron glanced at his 508/1000 life essence, and then gritted his teeth and silently thought in his heart, Ability Detection, Open!

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

A faint white aura that was visible only to Ron shot out, and then the world in Ron's eyes became a three-dimensional structure made of lines, and the originally thick wooden planks became blurred glass, and Ron could see the staff of the original stage partition turning into red human figures dancing in front of the visitors.

As Ron's gaze shifted, all the structures that fell into Ron's line of sight, whether it was the velvet curtain, the walls, the floor, and even the iron cage that shrouded the iron fangs, became blurred, only the iron teeth in the cage turned dark red.

"Squeak!"

It turns out that this is the ability to detect!

Feeling the completely different world in front of him, Ron suddenly felt that five points of life essence per minute was worth it, although it might take Ron an hour to make up for this minute of consumption.

"Squeak!"

Chief, have you figured out a way?

The beard behind him was of course unaware of Ron's change at this moment, and a faint cry that could only be heard by trying to expand his ears came from his throat and into Ron's ears.

Naturally, Ron turned his head to look at the long beard, but when Ron saw the long beard, a creep suddenly appeared in his heart.

Because in Ron's eyes, the long beard in front of him was not rendered red, and at this moment, Ron still maintained the ability to detect!

"The detection skill defaults to humanoid detection, and it has lasted for one minute, consuming five life essences. ”

At the right time, a pale green prompt crossed in front of Ron's eyes, indicating that Ron's detection ability would default to humanoid detection when it was activated, so Ron immediately switched his detection ability to beast mode, so the long beard in front of him was immediately enveloped in a layer of red light.

"Squeak!"

It turned out that I forgot to switch modes! No wonder I can't see the long beard!

Despite this, Ron was uneasy by the feeling of the moment, and he looked back at the stage again, although the floor of the stage was still blurred, but the figure of the staff was no longer visible, only the iron teeth in the iron cage were surrounded by red light, and below the stage, a large group of red light clusters were clustered together, numbering hundreds, among which three red lights were particularly bright, as if three red lights were eye-catching.

"Squeak!"

So you're here!

Although he couldn't see the actual scene, from the movements and appearance of the extraordinarily bright light clusters, Ron had already recognized them as the three of the four Moonlight Rats group leaders except for Iron Fang, as for why they had gathered here, it was obvious that it was to rescue Iron Fang, because Ron saw that they seemed to have been stacked into a small body pyramid under the stage, and the top was close to the wooden floor of the stage.

"Squeak!"

Longbeard, I've found the other three group leaders!

Follow me!

Quietly departing from the foot of the wall on the side of the stage, Ron took his beard to the backstage of the theater and burrowed under the stage.

Immediately, Ron turned off his detection abilities and relied only on the dark vision of the moonlight rat to move quickly under the stage.

Then, they soon came to the location where Ron had seen the moonlight rats, and the iron cage where Iron Fang was imprisoned was beneath the stage floor.
