Chapter 407: The Giant Rat
readx;
When Price was running around to find out the news of the Balk giant rat, he didn't notice that a pair of eyes were watching him secretly, and his every move fell into the eyes of the others. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the stone cave in District 49, it was still Darson sitting opposite the man.
"Dahlson, Price went to the senior zone today. ”
"It's useless, he's doomed to be disappointed. Dalson smiled: "Don't look at him all the time like a good guy, compared to connections, he is far behind." ”
"Is it worth it?" the man didn't understand, and if he wanted to unify the voices of those people in the senior district, the price Dorson would definitely pay would not be small.
"Whether it's worth it or not depends on the result. Dalson said lightly: "If I get the Roaring Beast, then everything is worth it, but if I don't get it...... Think of it as an attempt. ”
"I still haven't figured out what the fire roar is for you, I heard that it is a suitable mount for a fire warrior, but no matter what, it is just a mount, how much can it help you?"
"You're not a fire warrior, so of course you can't understand the important surname of the Fire Roar, but I'm bound to get it this time. "Darson didn't tell the truth, not everyone knew that the roaring beast would emit a special source force field, fortunately, a chance let Darson learn about it, and since then he began to pay attention to the news about the roaring beast, but unfortunately the number of roaring beasts is too rare, and they usually live in the heart of the desert, and the instructor in charge of hunting at the Song of Death Academy can't run there with time and effort, just to find the trace of the roaring beast, they have more important things to do.
Therefore, when he saw Dio and the others for the first time, Dahlson made up his mind to get the roaring beast in his hands, which was the key to whether he could advance to the Martial Venerable.
Dio and the others were waiting for Price's news, and from the expression of the mentor who issued the mission, Dio intuitively thought that this mission might be a little more difficult than the Ice Flame Tiger, so he must find out the life habits of the Balk giant rat and what natural skills they have.
Two days later, Price's figure reappeared in the fifty-first area where Dio and the others lived.
Looking at Price's somewhat haggard face, Dio glanced at each other, the answer was already written on Price's face, no wonder the guy named Dalson had such a tough attitude, it turned out that he was the only one who knew the information about Balk's giant rat.
Sure enough, just as Theo and the others guessed, Price whispered with some shame: "I asked many people, but they can't tell me about this matter, I have also been to the senior area, but ......"
"Price, you've done your best, everyone is looking at it, it's okay, at most I'll go and see it myself, it's just a few more days wasted, it's not a big deal. Dio smiled and comforted.
"That's all there is to it. Price nodded: "But you have to be careful, I will try to find someone to ask again, it's really strange, how can no one know about the Balk Giant Rat? That area is already very close to the mission area of the advanced students, so it should be accessible to someone." ”
Price looked annoyed, it seemed that he didn't hear the news and was very sorry for Dio and the others, Dio and the others were a little moved, it was the first time they had seen such an enthusiastic person, especially when they didn't know their true identity, this heart was even more rare.
After sending Price away, Dio simply cleaned up, brought some food and water, and began to walk into the depths of the Riddle Forest, because Dio was just exploring the way, and would come back after observing the life habits of the Balk giant rat, Sophia did not pester to follow, and stayed in the dormitory honestly.
This time it was a long journey, and at the speed of Theo, it took two full days to get close to the area where the Balk giant rat was active.
Seeing that he is about to approach his destination, Dio is going to catch a mountain hare and come back to fight the tooth sacrifice, and the next day is estimated to be difficult to eat hot food, it is very dangerous to observe the life habits of demon beasts, since it needs to be observed, then it means that he does not understand this kind of demon beast, but fortunately, Vasily is a well-deserved master in this aspect of lurking, although Dio cannot be as perfect as his teacher, but it should be more than enough to deal with demon beasts.
During this season, mountain hares generally hide in burrows, and the entrance to the cave is often covered with weeds, which require careful search to spot.
An animal skeleton appeared in front of Dio, Dio just glanced at it, and continued to look forward without care, but after a while, Dio found two more skeletons, which is a little abnormal, if it is a rotten corpse or something, Dio can accept it, the corpse of the demon beast wants to decay and weathered to the point that only Bai Sensen's bones remain, it will take at least a few years. And the bones are so intact that they don't look like they were killed, but more like they died of natural causes.
However, the chance of the demon beasts in the forest dying naturally is too small, even the demon beasts at the top of the food chain, when they begin to age, the declining strength is not enough to deter the surrounding demon beasts, and it will not be long before they are divided and eaten.
Dio squatted down and carefully examined the two skeletons in front of him, the bones were so clean that they seemed to have been cleaned with a brush, and there was no minced meat at all, Dio grabbed a little dirt under the bones with his hand, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, the slightly sticky dirt still exuded a bloody smell, Dio frowned, and the result was obvious, these two unknown monsters were killed.
Except for the man-eating ants in Dio's memory, it seems that no animal can handle food so cleanly, there must be such a thing here, right?Dio stood up and continued to walk towards the forest, even if he encountered man-eating ants, he didn't need to worry, Dio was very confident in his speed.
As Dio deepened, there were more and more remains of demon beasts in sight, each of which was clean to the extreme without exception, and the surname Diso stopped, and if he looked for it, he might not find anything, this place has obviously been swept by some kind of demon beast, and the guy who does not have the ability to attack is estimated to be not spared.
At this moment, there was a sudden faint gnawing sound in the forest, Dio's eyes were fixed, he listened for a while, and slowly raised his steps to approach the direction where the sound came from, Dio's movements were very light, and he did not make any sound.
The perception of most demon beasts is very keen, especially the demon beasts living on the ground, basically have the ability to determine the enemy's location through the vibration of the ground, so Dio did not dare to take it lightly before figuring out what kind of demon beast it was, he didn't have Laura's ability, in case he met a big guy who couldn't be provoked and couldn't escape, it was really too late to cry.
The price of caution is that it took Dio more than ten minutes to see the corpse of the animal in the distance, this should be an ordinary wild boar, the reason why Dio is not very sure, is because at this moment the corpse has been unrecognizable, only the two huge fangs protruding from the side of the lip allow Dio to vaguely recognize its identity, and there are several black unknown monsters squatting around the corpse snorting and eating deliciously.
Dio's eyesight was good enough to see how the black monsters were feeding, and instead of biting the boar's carcass with their teeth, they stuck out a long tongue covered with sharp barbs, and each lick swept away a large patch of bloody flesh from the boar's carcass.
Dio immediately understood why the bones he had seen before had been handled so cleanly, although the eating method of this unknown demon beast was bloody, it was the most efficient Dio had ever seen, the long tongue was not only soft, but also barbed, if the barbs could be sharper, Dio even suspected that there would be no bones left.
One of the monsters seemed to be eating more excitedly, raising its hair and making a squeaky sound, two huge incisors stood there ridiculously, blocking the entire jaw, and there was a wide slit in the middle, and the long pink tongue inside could be faintly seen.
Squeaky sounds, huge incisors, Dio suddenly had a very familiar feeling, and in his mind, he reduced the size of this demon beast by more than ten times, and only then did he discover one thing, isn't this a mouse?
Balk Rats?But this isn't their area?!
Dio remembered that Price had mentioned that in order to avoid accidentally injuring students with lower strength, the Song of Death Academy controlled each kind of demon beast within a certain range and conducted regular inspections, and it stands to reason that this situation would not occur now.
Maybe it's an omission on the part of the academy...... Dio thought so in his heart, hesitating whether to rush out and experience the combat power of the Balk Giant Rat, now is obviously a good opportunity, there are only three Balk Giant Rats, the key is that Dio is not sure if there are only these three nearby.
At this time, the carcass of the wild boar had already been eaten by the Balk Giant Rat, and after thinking about it, Dio decided to wait for them to finish eating before doing anything, and at that time, the Balk Giant Rat's mobility should be affected somewhat.
But after another ten minutes, Dio was surprised to see that the three Balk rats did not stop at all, but kept rolling up the boar's flesh with their tongues and putting it in their mouths...... Isn't that an exaggeration? Could it be that these guys' stomachs are bottomless? A wild boar must weigh at least five hundred pounds, and the three Balk rats together weigh about this amount, and this strange phenomenon is obviously contrary to common sense.
The next moment, Dio found an unusual place, two huge bulges began to appear on the neck of the Balk giant rat, and it seemed that something was constantly filling in it, making the two bulges bigger and bigger, and then Dio even worried about whether they would be broken.
Eventually, the three Balk rats stopped eating, leaving a neat skeleton on the ground, and began to crawl around the ground with a wobble drag on the two large balls around their necks.
Dio noticed for a moment, the direction they left was the area marked on the map where the Balk giant rats were active, and immediately understood what these guys were doing, and couldn't help but laugh a little, for the first time I heard that there was a way to 'pack'...... Wouldn't dragging the whole boar carcass back the same effect?
