Jialan and the others were leisurely discussing "academics" in the rear, but they encountered a fierce battle situation in front, and the mercenaries were gradually forced to retreat into the secret door by the dark demon rat group.

A round of magic poured out just now has almost killed the dark demon rats in the rat cage hall, and the five golden warriors of Captain Kenmet, plus sixty or seventy silver warriors, if they can't even destroy the remaining dozens of dark demon rats, then they don't deserve to be called a large mercenary group.

However, when Jialan and a group of magicians arrived at the entrance of the secret door, they were surprised to find that the number of dark demon rats that had been almost wiped out had not decreased, but were more than before!

How is this possible? Could it be a swarm of rats from somewhere else that the nest has been smashed and driven back?

Soon, Jialan and the others understood what was going on, the super giant rat that was imprisoned in the middle of the rat cage hall, although it was already fat and could not move, but it was able to summon groups of dark demon rats out of thin air by hissing, at least a hundred at a time!

A giant rat with the ability to summon a derivation?

Jialan was startled, this is a unique ability of devils and demons, and after carefully looking at the super giant giant rat that was so filthy that it was almost impossible to see the color of its fur, Jialan lost her voice and said, "Queen of the Dark Mocha Rat!?"

"What?"

Jialan's side was busy releasing magic to help the mercenaries resist the swarm of rats, and because he didn't hear Jialan's words clearly, he instinctively asked.

"Look at its eyes! It's the queen of a dark mocha gopher!"

After Jialan pointed to the fat rat in the metal cage, violently ramming into the metal fence, everyone realized that this huge and somewhat excessive rat turned out to be a blind mouse without eyes!

The so-called "blind mouse" does not mean that its eyes are blind, but that it does not have an eye at all. There were only two deep depressions left in the original eye socket, and it was obvious that the eyes had degenerated.

The phenomenon of eye degradation usually occurs in those creatures that live deep underground, although it also belongs to the underground, but it is quite close to the surface, and the eyes of other giant rats and dark demon rats have not degenerated, which means that this is not the "place of origin" of this super giant rat.

Jialan knew this blind mouse by coincidence, although she hadn't seen it with her own eyes. But he had seen hand-drawn illustrations of the Dark Mocha Gopher in a book of Illustrated Creatures of the Dark Regions.

This dark mocha gopher eats and lives in the very deep underground, in a place called "dark land", where they are in their infancy. Aside from its size, it is not too different from a normal mouse.

But as the dark mocha gopher grows. Not only do they get bigger and bigger. Bone spurs and bone armor grow on their bodies, and even their eyes gradually deteriorate, allowing them to hunt for food only by smell and hearing.

The population of the dark Mocha gopher is very similar to that of ants and bees, and the entire group of dark Mocha gophers is the offspring of the rat queen, and all of them are male dark mocha gophers that are not capable of reproduction.

The dark mocha rat queen is because of its size. Unable to hunt on its own, it needs to rely on its offspring to collect food to feed, and its main job is to eat and live desperately. There is no prohibition to expand the number of ethnic groups.

It is said that a population of dark mocha gophers can number hundreds of thousands or even millions of them, and the only thing that can suppress the population of dark mocha gophers is the food source in their area.

The larger the food source, the larger the population of the dark mocha gopher, and when food is scarce, the queen will even feed on her offspring until the food is abundant.

When the rat queen encounters danger, she will directly call her direct descendants from anywhere to protect herself, which is the summoning phenomenon that Jialan and they see.

This rat queen who was confined in a metal cage is obviously not the first generation of dark mocha gopher queens, after all, this closed underground ruin, it is estimated that no one has entered for thousands of years.

This is long enough time for the dark Mocha gophers that have left the "dark land" to mutate.

Therefore, Jialan did not find the queen of rats by the side of the queen of rats, and found that among the dark mocha gopher group, the rat king group responsible for protecting the queen rat queen and breeding offspring, nor did she find the "soldier rat" group responsible for protecting the entire group, which made the danger of this dark mocha gopher a lot lower.

The first generation of rat queens must have been artificially imprisoned by the dragon worshippers, but when the first generation of rat queens died, the successors continued to occupy the metal cage that could "protect" it from foreign creatures.

In this way, it has been passed down from generation to generation, so that the newborn rat queen will use the metal cage used to hold them as its nest and throne, and lie in it with peace of mind to enjoy the offerings of future generations.

Jialan thought it was strange that why the Dragon Worshippers would lock up a dark Mocha gopher rat from the Dark Regions here? Could it be that for some evil magic experiment, a large number of test subjects were needed?

It seems that only this statement is more reliable, after all, the reproductive ability of the dark Mocha gopher is very strong, and it can reproduce a huge group in a very short time, which can be seen from such a small effort, and the queen of the rat has summoned nearly a thousand descendants of the dark Mocha gopher.

"Holy, did we stab the rat's nest?"

The captain of Kenmet shouted, and the surging rat swarm rushed over almost frantically, so that a position they had finally captured before was snatched back by the rat swarm, and even the back road was surrounded by dark demon rats...... The dark mocha gophers have been breeding in this ruin for an unknown number of years, and almost all of the underground has been opened by them!

And this ruins of the Dragon Worship Temple, which is still unknown to the extent of the Dao, obviously can provide a sufficient source of food for the Dark Mocha Gopher, so that the Rat Queen has enough direct descendants to summon, and judging from its behavior, it is obvious that it intends to fill this Rat Cage Hall with its own offspring!

All the people are desperate, and even the magicians dare not keep their hands any longer, otherwise once the rat swarm breaks through the defense line of the mercenaries, they, the magicians who are weak in close combat, can only become food for these big rats.

Jialan also cooperated with the magicians and began to release the powerful "chain of wind signals", strangling these dark mocha gophers who had completely lost their minds because the safety of the rat queen was threatened, and they would not be afraid of the death of their own kind.

But the rat swarm is like an endless rush to kill, a steady stream of rats from the queen of rats, even if everyone has exploded, the killed rat corpses have begun to pile up within the attack range.

If this continues, the mercenaries will soon be unable to resist, and the magicians will also run out of magic, and when the time comes, no matter how strong Jialan's chain wind ball is, it may not be possible to destroy all the dark mocha gophers on their own.

Jialan frowned, for he sensed that their troubles didn't seem to be limited to the rats, because the trampling of the rats, the plants that the wood magicians had spawned to purify the filthy air and the plague viruses were rapidly being destroyed!

Moreover, the rat queen was still spewing out streams of black mist...... Although Jialan doesn't know what those black mist are, it definitely won't be a good thing!

Jialan quickly released the wind ball, and said to the magicians around her, "I'm afraid it won't work if it goes on like this!

The fire senior mage glanced at the metal giant cage located in the center of the rat cage hall and shook his head: "No! it's too far away!"

This rectangular rat cage hall is about 250 meters long and 200 meters wide, and hundreds of thick stone pillars support the dome.

The location of the secret door where they were located was exactly at the corner of the main hall, more than a hundred meters away from the metal giant cage in the center of the main hall, and there were five or six layers of cage arrays in between.

"In that case......"

Jialan glanced up at the wind intermediate magician who was floating in the air with the Wind Flying Technique, attacking condescendingly, and took out a bottle of "Floating Potion" and drank it, his body was slightly light, and he floated from the ground.

The "Floating Potion" is not a "Flying Potion", it does not have the ability to fly, but it can only make people float at a vertical height of ten meters above the ground.

Jialan's action of "flying" did not surprise the mid-level mages of the wind system in the air, but just nodded to Jialan and continued to throw the wind balls at the rats on the ground.

"Rica Magician, can you take me to a greater height, preferably near the Rat Queen?"

Jialan stretched out his hand and pointed to the center of the rat cage hall, although he could float up, but the height of ten meters could not avoid the attack of the rat group, their jumping ability was quite amazing, especially the ground was also covered with layers of three-meter-high rat cages, a little bit of strength could pounce him from the air.

Rica Magician glanced at Jialan in surprise, and Jialan shrugged her shoulders, unable to explain to him why she could float up, but she couldn't "fly" over on her own.

Jialan could only summon a huge fireball and threw it at the rat group, directly blasting a large group of rats into the sky, and then said to him with an innocent face: "I said that I am not a wind magician, do you believe it?"

Rica Magician suddenly sweated, remembering that this Jialan Wizard really seems to be more than just a wind magic......ian!
