"Everyone, get on the speedboat!"

Yuan Chongming loudly informed the other five squads left behind.

"What about the ripples?"

Lin Yi asked directly.

"It's back!"

Hearing that Ripple was returning, the rest of the people did not hesitate any longer, quickly boarded the speedboat, then started the engine, and immediately turned around and sailed away from this terrifying place after Ripple jumped on the boat for the last time.

The explosion was incessant, and half of the shanty town behind it was blown up, and then everyone saw mutant rats flying up in the flames, and more rats were fleeing in panic.

"Oh my god! We've really stabbed a rat's nest!"

Sun Zhou gasped and sighed.

"You should be glad we didn't go deeper, otherwise we wouldn't have made it out alive."

Chu Hong's cold voice came into everyone's ears.

"You mean those people are all dead?"

Tang Tianming asked after licking his lips.

"Or not! Otherwise, Ripple wouldn't have used a time bomb!"

Zhao Jia answered.

When everyone heard this, they all turned their heads to look at the ripples on the other speedboat, and she was gasping for breath, this mission was the most embarrassing she had in a long time.

After Ripple took a breath, he immediately said loudly:

"Get out of here, those rats are in the water!"

Sure enough, because the ripples blew up their lair, and some of the rats still had flames on them, these clever guys actually jumped directly into the water, and then the five speedboats became their targets again.

"Withdraw!"

This time, everyone did not hesitate and quickly left their current position, but the expressions on everyone's faces were ugly.

"Ripple, are you alright?"

Captain Lin Yi asked.

Ripples jumped on the speedboat of Lin Yi's team.

After listening to the other party's question, she waved her hand, sighed and said:

"Our rescue mission failed! There was no living mouth left, and all I could see was bones."

「.」

The people on the speedboat were silent, the last thing they wanted to hear.

"But I worked with Whirlwind to get the Rat Boss back, and I can at least make a deal when I go back."

Ripples finally said good news.

"Boss Rat?"

Lin Yi was also shocked.

"Here it is! I'm going back and I'm going to show you!"

Ripple patted the backpack behind him.

"Meow!" Here, too, I have a share of credit, and the whirlwind immediately gives credit.

"You must be indebted!"

Ripple raised his hand and touched the whirlwind on his shoulder.

"At least this time, we still have something to gain."

Lin Yi sighed.

Then the crowd braved the heat and returned to the station before the sun went down.

After handing over the rat boss, the team that took over the task this time dispersed, and the mood was not very high.

Soon after they left, researchers in white coats took the rat boss away.

After everyone went back, they were greeted by Jiayao and Liu Zili, who saw that several people who had been out for a day were injured, and immediately began to deal with them.

"Uncle Liu, our injuries were bitten by rats, and I don't know if we will be infected with the virus, you can help us deal with it."

"Okay, I got it!"

After treating the wounds, everyone ate something casually, and then gathered at Yuan Chongming's residence to exchange today's tasks.

"This is our squad

"Hey! I always feel uncomfortable when I don't get people out."

Zhao Jia said weakly.

"It's not our fault, it's that those rats are too strong in combat, and I guessed before that those people should become the reserve food for the rats, so that they can live for two more days, and wait for our support, but

Pity"

Ripple also shook his head helplessly.

"Do you think those rats are going to be infested, and it feels like the animals that have experienced extreme weather have mutated."

When Li Qian spoke, all that flashed in his mind were huge mice, and then he looked at the whirlwind who was combing his hair in Ripple's arms.

"Indeed, the whirlwind has also mutated, otherwise how dare it fight that mutant rat boss!"

Ripple did not deny it.

"Now that the temperature is rising, what do you think will happen when all the stagnant water is steaming?"

Sun Weifeng asked.

"I don't know! But before we do, let's save some water!"

Yuan Chongming ended the conversation with one sentence.

Three days later, the station issued an announcement to all survivors that after catching the mutant rats, they could come to the station to exchange for food.

And clearly tell all those who want to try mutant mice that mutant mice carry a large amount of viruses, although they will not die immediately after eating, that is because the virus has an incubation period of one month, after which it will start to rot from the internal organs, I hope everyone will not try it, and exchange it for food from the right way.

As soon as the announcement came out, the survivors began to prepare their own various rat trapping tools, these rats are no longer hateful mobs in their eyes, but food, which is the motivation to keep them alive.

The whole people have set off a frenzy of rat hunting, not afraid of you, just afraid that you will not show your head, so that the tasker of Ripples is speechless, this is a bar with mice.

A few days later, Situ Yi came to them and explained the doorway.

"The rat boss brought back by Ripples was dissected by scientific researchers, and it was found that although its epidermis carried the virus, the meat was indeed non-toxic, although it was non-toxic, it was not simply cooked and edible, so the station would be recycled, and after high-temperature processing, it could be used as meat and temporarily supplied to the survivors."

Zhao Jia swallowed his saliva after hearing this, and asked in a trembling voice:

"Can you really eat it?"

"Hmm!"

"Oops! Wouldn't we be at a loss! When we went to the mutant rat's lair, we killed so many of them, and they were all cheaper, so we got the rat boss back!"

Zhao Jia choked his wrists.

Ripple touched her nose, she felt that she would not choose to eat rat meat for the time being when there were other foods.

"I haven't had a mission lately, so if we try our luck there, we can exchange a few catties of food for the least."

Situ Yi proposed.

"Okay, ask anyone else who wants to go, and we'll team up."

Yuan Chongming did not refuse.

"Go! I'm not going, it's too hot! Don't go too deep."

Ripples stroked the hot whirlwind, and instructed a few people.

"Okay, we got it!"

Because of the extremely hot weather, it was almost 55 degrees at noon, and I was sweating all over my body, and I would suffer from heat stroke after staying for a long time, and the water level was still dropping.

Ripple's guess this time was still very accurate, twenty-eight days later, the stagnant water was almost evaporated, the shallowest water was only up to the calf, and the deepest water level was only up to the waist of an adult, and a large number of survivors began to leave the trapped place and go out in search of food.

At the same time, in the weekly distribution of relief food, a simple-packaged patty appeared, which was only palm-sized and salty, but it was meat, giving hungry survivors hope of survival.

"Big brother, what kind of meat is this made of? It's quite chewy!"

When a man received the meatloaf, he opened it and took a bite.

"Mutant rat meat!"
