Chapter 142: Tanaka's Mutation [4K]
Obviously, Barton didn't like the name very much, and his fierce eyes stared at Ryan, eager to bite him.
"Well, the name is just a code name, it's really not good, I'll make you General Patton." Ryan knew that he was a noun, and even this one was plagiarized, and he had heard of a dog's name Patton before.
So, under the persuasion of Ryan, Barton finally accepted the name, and he was powerless to resist anyway......
Later, Ryan called the old butler Deman, who was still thinking about the rat caller, who was really a dangerous person and had to be guarded against.
"Sir, what can I do for you?" The old butler was still dressed meticulously and saluted Ryan respectfully.
"Steward de Man, I hope that from today onwards, there will not be a single rat in the castle, no matter where it is."
Ryan said to him with a serious expression, he didn't know how many rats the rat caller could control, only to attack indiscriminately and eliminate them all, otherwise he would have to be careful in what he said and did in the future.
Deman was a little surprised, after all, rats were so common in castles that it was almost impossible to clean them up. But he didn't refute, and said respectfully: "As you wish, I'll arrange it now." ”
For him, Lane's command was a holy decree, and the moment he made it, the rats of the entire castle were sentenced to death.
The old butler was still efficient and reliable, and it didn't take long for the castle to set off a vigorous "rat extermination campaign", and at this moment, the rat became the most evil creature.
All suspected rat holes were sealed with cement, and servants were armed with sticks and other items, and every corner was searched, and no suspicious places were spared.
For a while, the chickens and dogs jumped in the castle, but the effect was really obvious, and they caught more than a dozen mice, but I don't know if there are any rats controlled by the rat caller in it.
Since then, the castle has one more rule - the rat must die!
The old butler Deman even stipulated that whoever found rats in the area in charge would be punished, and for a while, the rats in the castle were wiped out......
After doing all this, Ryan considered asking Susan to sign a contract as well, which would be considered a guarantee for her growth in the future...... Just then, Kwill knocked on his door in a panic.
Looking at the solemn Kwill, Ryan suddenly had a "chuckle" in his heart, he appointed the other party to be responsible for the cultivation and guardianship of magic crops, could it be that there was something wrong with those magic crops?
Kwell saluted, "My lord, there's a problem on the farmland, so go and see it." ”
"What's going on?" Ryan frowned, The magic crop is a pawn he has high hopes for, so he has invested a lot in it, and seeing that everything is going well and the harvest is about to be harvested, now tell him that something is wrong?
"It's mainly peanut fields, and when I was on patrol today, I found that the peanut plants that were growing well began to die one by one.
I checked and found that something had destroyed its roots, and the peanuts had been eaten, and I now suspect that something was wreaking havoc underground, but I couldn't do anything about it. "Kwill's face was ugly, and he saw that the harvest was about to be harvested, where did he think that such a thing would happen!
Although he is also an extraordinary person, he is indeed a scumbag in terms of combat, although he knows the reason, but he can't do anything about it, so he has to come to Ryan for help.
Peanuts were one of the most important of all crops, and when he heard this, he put Barton down and immediately rushed after him.
Due to the high requirements for the concentration of magic power for the cultivation of magic crops, at that time, Xiyue was specially asked to find several areas where spatial cracks existed to open up farmland.
Each one is not big, and it is very scattered, so Kwill usually runs around and can't take care of it. This also led to the problem not being discovered in time, and now an entire peanut field has been almost destroyed.
This peanut field is not big, and there are only dozens of plants in it, which is still the scale that Kewell has used his extraordinary strength several times to promote sowing.
He takes good care of him and grows well. And now, as far as the eye can see, most of them have completely died, and some of the remaining leaves have also begun to turn yellow, towering over the branches and leaves, as if they will not live long.
Ryan saw the pain in his eyes and heart, and he was about to harvest!
"Damn it, don't let me catch you!"
There was anger in his eyes, and he reached out and pulled out a few plants, and the peanuts that had borne under him had been eaten, and the root system had been completely destroyed, no wonder he was dead.
Looking around the land, there were not very obvious bulges, and he pulled out his saber and poked it, the soil was fluffy, and there should be something like a passage underneath.
"It's supposed to be rats."
Ryan snorted coldly, and roughly understood in his heart who the culprit was.
His feet were open, and the majestic fighting qi in his body began to work, gradually converging on the horizontal knife in his hand, until the war knife began to emit a faint clang, and he suddenly plunged the knife in his hand into the ground.
A shockwave visible to the naked eye spread rapidly around the center of the place where the tip of the knife was inserted, sweeping the entire farmland like a pulse wave, and if there were any rats or something inside, it would instantly shatter the internal organs and die.
"Bang la la"
In just a few seconds, a bag quietly arched in an inconspicuous corner of the farmland and began to move quickly in the dirt, but the direction was a little unpredictable, and it looked like a drunk driver, rampage.
Ryan, who had been paying attention to perception, soon discovered the abnormality, and couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, he didn't die?
"It doesn't seem to be an ordinary animal, I'm afraid it's a magical beast!" Ryan locked on to its position, kicked his foot, and the whole person rushed out like an arrow from the string.
Soon intercepted it, and was about to directly kill it, but saw a pointed head poking out of the bulge, and it was indeed a mouse.
Ryan was suddenly angry in his heart, he was a rat? You can't get along with rats, can you?
But what was surprising was that the rat seemed to know that he was in danger and came out of the soil with a bead in his arms.
Pushing the bead to Ryan's feet, it stood up, holding its two front paws in front of it, and actually began to humanize it, as if begging for mercy.
Ryan was shocked, is this still a mouse?
After feeling it carefully, it actually has the level of a second-level demonic beast, no wonder he was not directly shocked to death by the impact of his fighting spirit. It's just that, with its rank, it is impossible for a second-level demonic beast to have such a high level of intelligence.
Reaching out to pick it up, it shrunk back, not daring to resist in the slightest, only making a "squeak" wail, as if begging Ryan for mercy.
Ryan met its eyes like black gems, which clearly revealed human panic, panic, and pleading......
He didn't know how he could see so many things in a pair of mouse eyes, but he understood that this mouse was not ordinary, and after thinking about it, he picked up the beads on the ground.
This can be regarded as its "life money", this little thing is not low in wisdom, and it should not be an ordinary product.
The beads are green and transparent, the surface is round and smooth, about the size of a pigeon's egg, although it comes out of the soil, it is not stained with a little soil, and it is cold and heavy in the hand, not like a mortal thing.
"All my peanuts have been destroyed by you, and I hope the money you gave me to buy my life is worth enough."
Originally, it was just a casual threat, but who expected that the mouse actually nodded again and again, and a pair of small eyes instantly brought a flattering look.
"Hey, you're really good."
This rat is a bit interesting, Ryan intends to spare his life, and peanuts can be planted again, but rats that are mature are rare.
Kwill was also amazed, he had never heard of such a thing.
"This batch of peanuts is wasted, let's re-cultivate and plant it later, you have to have more snacks during this time, I will send you a few assistants when I find a time, and I must ensure that the crops in other fields can be harvested normally."
Ryan carried the mouse casually, but he didn't blame Kwill, this thing is really unavoidable, fortunately this time it's just a mouse, in case it is replaced by another second-level demonic beast to break in, he is probably more than lucky.
"Yes, I promise it won't happen again." Kerwill was ashamed, and he almost messed up his farming errands.
After a few words of encouragement, Ryan took the beads and the mouse back to the castle, and Barton, who had been napping on the table, immediately rushed over as if he had found some new toy when he saw the mouse, jumping up and down.
Ryan still had the words "Give me, give me ......" echoing in his mind.
The rat shrunk into a ball of fright, where can its small body withstand the ravages?
"Hey, you're a second-level demonic beast, and Barton is only a first-level demonic beast, so you're too cowardly." Ryan looked at the mouse in his hand speechlessly, and he couldn't see the qualities that a second-level demonic beast should have in it.
This thing was kind of interesting, and he thought that he would wait for Susan to come back and communicate with it, to see what kind of treasure this bead was, and by the way to find out what kind of rat spirit it was.
At first glance, it looks like an ordinary black mouse, but if you look closely, you will find that it has a shallow golden fluff around its neck, a layer of armor similar to scales on its abdomen to protect its soft belly, and a short tail that has just dragged on the ground, which is two different species from the common mouse.
Playing with the beads in his hand, Ryan felt that his knowledge was still too shallow, and he couldn't see what it was at all, he just felt that it was not ordinary, and that was all.
"It seems that I have to find Liman again, and I don't know if that weird ring has been researched to make any names, alas, it still lacks heritage."
Ryan sighed helplessly, the baby couldn't be recognized in his hand, and now he relied on Liman's support, the key is that although he is a scholar in the early stage, he is obsessed with alchemy and runes, and his skill points are all off, and many times he can only stare dryly.
"It would be nice if I had a Du Niang, I suffered a loss of no culture." He smiled self-deprecatingly, put the beads in his hand, and closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
I don't know how long it took, but the door was opened, and a silver-winged wolf rushed in with a flick of his tongue, and threw himself into a ball with Barton, having a great time.
Seeing Ryan leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, Susan made a silent gesture to the two wolves, then walked lightly behind Ryan on her tiptoes, with a malicious smile on her face, and reached out to cover his nose.
A smile appeared on the corner of Ryan's mouth, and with a slight tilt of his head, Susan suddenly pounced.
"You're not asleep." Susan puffed up and looked at Ryan, who was still with his eyes closed, and the prank failed.
"Silly sister, even if I fell asleep, I woke up when Little Gray came in, I really slept so dead, it's not a good thing on the battlefield."
Ryan opened his eyes, stretched his waist comfortably, and let out a slight humming sound in his nose, just now thinking about things and thinking about actually falling asleep, squinting for a while felt quite good, speaking of which he hadn't slept well for a long time.
"Hmph, what are you looking for me, Mr. Wei Dewen has assigned a lot of homework today, so busy." Susan sat down beside him, staring at him with big eyes.
Ryan smiled and rubbed her head, how could she not see through her careful thoughts, those homework were completely a piece of cake for her, and the reason why she said this was to ask for benefits.
This is already a tacit understanding between the two siblings.
"Do my brother a small favor, this bead is for you."
Picking up the bead from the table and handing it to her, Susan looked at the emerald bead, a smile suddenly bloomed on her face, she snatched it, and said happily: "You say, a gift can only help you with one thing." ”
She didn't really know what the bead was or how precious it was, and she was happy only because it was given to Lane.
"It's this guy, it ruined a peanut field for me, this bead is the life-saving money it took out, don't look at it has no characteristics, it's very fine."
You help me communicate with it, figure out what kind of species it is and where it comes from. Ryan shook the mouse in his hand.
"It's easy." Susan clapped her little hands and slowly closed her eyes, placing one hand on top of the mouse's head, and an invisible link was established between them.
The mouse suddenly became agitated, and looked at Susan in surprise, as if he had discovered a new world.
Susan was silent in communicating with the creature, and after a while, she opened her eyes and relayed, "It said it didn't mean to eat you, but to find a treasure, this bead, and hoped that you would spare it, and that it had other things to redeem itself." ”
Ryan suddenly became interested, originally he thought that he found this bead because it was crooked, but he didn't expect it to have a purpose, but how did it know?
Telling Susan about this question, she had another brief but heated exchange, and then glared and said, "It said it smelled, it smelled far away, and it was going to take it back to the collection." ”
Ryan raised an eyebrow, good fellow, still a collector's rat, and I don't know if I've found anything else.
"But...... Sounds familiar, have I seen something like this anywhere? Ryan rubbed his chin and began to dig into the memories in the depths of his mind.
Suddenly, he stood up, his eyes fixed on the mouse in his hand.
He remembered, remembered! In the library, there is a book about Warcraft, which says that there is a kind of Warcraft called the Treasure Hunt Mouse!
