Chapter Ninety-One: The Cunning Rat King
The fire rat is ferocious by nature, has a keen sense of smell, and its appearance is very similar to that of bamboo rats on earth, except that the color and claws are different from those of bamboo rats.
They have three-inch-long rat teeth and three five-inch-long claws, their bite force is not weak, and their whole body is gray and red, and they are fire-attribute group monsters.
The bloodline talent of the Flying Fire Rat determines that the strength of the Flying Fire Rat can only reach the third order at most. In addition to their minions, their only means of attack are fire-breathing, and strictly speaking, the threat of a single flying fire rat is not great.
The strength of a mid-first-order flying fire rat could only be compared to that of a newly-ranked tiger.
It's a pity that they attack monsters in groups, and they always move in groups.
The terrifying thing about this race is that even a first-order fire rat swarm will give birth to a rat king whose intelligence is no less than that of a child no less than six or seven years old.
You must know that the human race stands out from countless races and becomes the spirit of all things by virtue of its indispensable wisdom in addition to its unique body.
The wisdom of human beings is not comparable to that of monsters. For example, the Fire Cloud Leopard, whose intelligence is still superior among demon beasts, is only equivalent to that of a baby who can just speak simple words at the first order.
Most of the hunting behavior of the fire cloud leopard is also shared by leopards on the earth, which can only be regarded as the instinct of beasts.
The Flying Rat King is different.
It is the most intelligent flying fire rat in the whole clan, except that it is slightly smaller than the ordinary flying fire rat, and it is almost impossible to tell who is the rat king from the appearance.
The Flying Fire Rat King is good at camouflage and very flexible, and can make an inaudible sound to call for more Flying Rats, and only a monk with a keen sense can catch this special audio.
It often hides in a swarm of rats, moving with ordinary flying rats, making it difficult to tell who is the main one.
The first-order Flying Fire Rat Swarm is under the command of the Rat King, and even the foundation building monks will have a headache when they see it.
However, if you kill the Rat King, the remaining Flying Fire Rats will fall into a panic, lose their combat power, and run away with their heads in their hands, unless a new Rat King appears.
Wen Yu took the sky close to this abandoned volcano, in the crater there is a rich first-order igneous mine, this ore is dark red, the texture is soft, and it does not contain much fire aura, which is one of the two favorite foods of the flying fire rat.
Another favorite food of the fire rat is the flesh of the monks.
Now that the sun has not set, the flying fire rats will not come out to feed, all they have to do is to find a place rich in igneous rock mines to lay in ambush and wait for the prey to come to the door.
When night falls, the cool mountain breeze blows, bringing the fragrance of grass and trees and the smell of blood, and the night of the mountains has always been cruel.
Wen Yu and Changkong converged their breath and hid under a huge rock, not far away with a large number of igneous rock mines, and of course, the spirit rune trap arranged by the two of them.
After a while, the sound and shouts of a small group of demon beasts advancing could be heard in the distance.
"Squeak Squeak......"
Here it comes! Wen Yu and the others cheered up and stroked the magic sword in their hands.
A skinny mid-order fire rat cautiously approached the igneous ore pile, its nose twitching as if it were sniffing something.
Soon, the fire rat reached its favorite food, but instead of pounced on it to enjoy it, it looked around vigilantly, sniffing around the edge of the ore pile.
This is the "scout" of the rat colony, finding the way for the rat colony, and the sense of smell is particularly sensitive.
Wen Yu and Changkong were very careful, and there was no breath on the igneous mine, so the flying fire rat screamed a few times eagerly, calling for the rats to eat.
A group of more than five hundred first-order flying fire rats soon appeared in Wen Yu's sight, letting out a cheerful "squeak" cry, and quickly approached the igneous rock mine.
Among the rats was a late-first-order flying fire rat with a small physique, and its small rat eyes were black sesame like seeds, and it was spinning restlessly.
Could that be the Rat King?
The rat swarm stopped at the edge of the ore, and the flying fire rat suspected of being the king of the rat screamed twice, and more than a dozen flying fire rats scattered around the ore pile, and then pounced on the ore together, letting go of the rat teeth and eating in large gulps.
"簌簌簌......"
Several talismans were stimulated one after another, releasing ice spikes and ice picks one after another, and more than a dozen flying fire rats quickly died blindly.
Seeing this, the rats made a flurry of commotions, and the flying fire rat, which was suspected to be the king of the rats, screamed twice before it calmed down.
Wen Yu was optimistic about the timing, and when the rats were in turmoil, he issued an improved version of the "Ice Drop" move, and countless ice spikes fell like rain, piercing into the flying fire rats that had just calmed down and had no time to dodge.
In an instant, dozens of flying fire rats were killed and injured, and the flying fire rats, who were suspected to be the king of rats, nimbly dodged the ice spikes and shouted angrily in the direction of Wen Yu.
The original "Ice Drop" would release ice picks on the blade of the sword, but Wen Yu improved it, controlling the amount and trajectory of the aura, and releasing smaller and more ice spikes, just right for the smaller body of the Flying Fire Rat.
Before Wen Yu unleashed her sword move, Changkong stealth quietly separated from her, and while she attracted the attention of the rats, she circled behind the rats.
"Squeak-"
The "Rat King" gave an order, and the flying fire rats came towards Wen Yu one after another, and she didn't dodge, jumped out of the boulder, and raised her sword.
No one noticed, an incomparably nimble flying fire rat quietly burrowed into the ground, and the traces of turning over the soil were quickly flattened by the rats behind, and there was no abnormality.
Under the leadership of the "Rat King", a wave of flying fire rats spewed fireballs, and a wave of flying fire rats surrounded Wen Yu, and the servants pounced on her one after another.
As soon as she picked up her magic sword, a mid-order mid-order flying fire rat at the front was strung on the magic sword, releasing a "cold seal" by the wayside, white light gushed out from the sword body, and countless cold qi spread among the rats.
The nearby pieces of flying fire rats were frozen in an instant, and many of them still landed stiffly on the ground in a fluttering posture.
As soon as the flying fire rats that were far away touched the cold air, they bloomed frost flowers, and they were stiff and slow.
This kind of large-scale attack is very spiritually draining, and although there are no other flying fire rats coming to help at this time, she also has to fight quickly.
The rat corpse froze on the sword, she put away the sword momentum, and took the rat corpse with her, wielding the magic sword impenetrable to resist the fireballs.
The bell on her waist vibrated twice, this was her agreement with Changkong, it seemed that Changkong had gone around to the back of the rat group and was eyeing the "Rat King".
Wen Yu didn't shake the mother bell, her divine sense has always shrouded the "Rat King", although it behaved like the Flying Fire Rat King, but she always felt that something was wrong, so she decided to wait.
After flying a few flying fire rats with fangs and claws, she approached the "Rat King". This fire rat is very cunning, hiding in the middle of the fireball fire rat swarm, in front of another wave of fire rats that keep pounceing on her.
Moreover, the fire-breathing fire rat was also divided into two parts by it, alternately releasing fireballs, so that she was forced to "catch the ball" non-stop, and she had to avoid the fireballs to prevent the fire rats from rushing towards her.
Fortunately, her body is good and her reaction is fast, although it is difficult at this time, she can also cope with it.
Until the exclamation of the sky came:
"Qianqian, there are a lot of flying fire rats here suddenly!"
Wen Yu was shocked, only to see countless flying fire rats coming out of the ground in a steady stream, these were summoned, but she could be sure that the "Rat King" did not emit audio that could not be recognized by human ears.
The real Rat King is hidden in the shadows, and the "Rat King" is a disguise, so cunning Flying Fire Rat King!
