"Whew!"

"Bump, bump, bump!"

There was a sudden roar in front of them, and Liu Yu and Dahl, who had been on the road for most of the day in the curved grotto mine, immediately stopped and listened attentively.

"Daoist Xuanyu, either someone is hunting in front of you, or there are two parties fighting the Fa!" said the experienced Dahl, who listened for a while.

This situation is commonplace for him, and if he doesn't encounter anything when walking in the "underground grotto", then it's strange!

"What now!" Liu Yu couldn't help frowning.

"Generally speaking, we can take a detour to avoid it, or we can wait here for a while, thinking that it will soon subside, or go up to the front to see what is going on, but this mine road is a shortcut, if you detour, you will have to take a detour for half a day. Dahl reluctantly explained.

"Let's go, let's take a look!" Liu Yu said after a moment's consideration, the detour was too far, and it was not a way to wait, so it was better to step forward and take a closer look to see what was going on.

......

"What the hell are those?" The two of them slowly stepped forward and hid behind a corner boulder, and when they looked from a distance, they saw a disgraced Northland woman and a buffalo tall silver wolf, blocked in a corner by a small group of half-human, half-beast-like monsters.

"Those are the cave people!" Dahl replied as he saw his color change.

"Grotto people?" Liu Yu couldn't help but look puzzled.

"Dao Chief, do you see those crouching monsters crawling on the ground quickly? They don't look like big rats, they are half-rat people. Dahl pointed to the outer ring and made a piercing "squeak, squeak" sound, with thick bristles, sharp claws on all fours, and a large number of ghosts less than half a human tall.

"These cave half-rat people, who like to dig holes in the walls, are overflowing in the underground "maze cave layer" and "flame cave layer", there are very many of them, and their intelligence is low, as long as they are not besieged by a large group of half-rat people, there is no danger, but those who wear Kai armor and hold swords are very dangerous!" Dahl continued.

"How's the combat power?" Liu Yu asked with a solemn expression as he looked at the "rat men" who were walking upright, with rat heads and human bodies, dragging a slender hairless tail, wearing heavy armor, holding sharp blades, and with a pair of green eyes on their hairy faces.

"These cave rats are naturally powerful, and have bloodline spiritual power, and their adult is equivalent to the mid-stage combat power of qi training, among which the elite can reach the combat power of the late stage of qi training, some of the deviants in the rat people have a strong perception of various minerals, can mine minerals, forge armor, and are proficient in the way, and the forging tools are no worse than the magic weapons of the cultivators, which is very difficult to deal with!" Dahl carefully introduced.

"Ding Ding" saw more than a dozen cave rat people attack the besieged woman and the giant wolf at the same time, threw out the javelin in his hand, the fierce silver wolf blocked the woman behind him, swept his front paws, and slapped seven or eight javelins, and the other javelins shot at the giant wolf, making a crisp sound.

This giant wolf wolf not only condensed a layer of body protection qi on the outside of his body, but also wore a thick custom spirit beast armor, which firmly protected the abdomen, joints, neck and other weak places, and the javelin shot could not penetrate the armor on the giant wolf's body at all, and the breath was bounced away.

"Whew!" the giant wolf lunged forward in rage, its sharp claws swinging towards the cave man standing at the front.

And the cave rat man in front, half a head taller than the other rat people, and his body is stronger, holding a red big knife, facing the giant wolf charge without retreating or dodging, his body bursts out of a very strong spiritual power, and the big knife in his hand ignites a flame, and it is a flame slash against the giant wolf.

With a "bump", the cave rat and the giant wolf were both shaken back, and the other cave rat people around took the opportunity to throw a rain of javelins again.

The giant wolf had to retreat again, blocking in front of the pale young woman, and then seven or eight half-rat men rushed forward, and the giant wolf waved his claws and tore and bites, and in a moment the half-rat men who rushed forward were repulsed, leaving behind three or four disembowelmented rat corpses.

"Dao Chief, let's take a detour! There is a "Nezumi Warlord"!" Dahl said in surprise when he saw this.

"Why?" Judging from the combat power that this tall rat-man had just burst out, it was also comparable to the combat power of the lizard leader he had encountered in the "Black and White Secret Realm" back then, and I don't know why Dahl was so panicked.

"The appearance of the 'Nezumi Warlord' means that there may be a large-scale 'Nezumi Tribe' hidden nearby, and this "Nezuren Tribe" may have dozens, or even hundreds, of Nezumi warriors, and a large number of half-nezumi, it is too dangerous to stay here!" Dahl said uneasily.

There are some things he hasn't said yet, some large "nezumi tribes", there is even no less than one "nezumi general", and some are even terrifying "nezumi wizards", and every year I don't know how many adventurous mercenaries die tragically at the hands of the cave rats.

"In this underground grotto, are there many rat people or rat tribes like this?" Liu Yu couldn't help but ask.

It's just that most of them are small tribes, not even tribes, they can only be called "rat holes" or "rat dens", with a few or a dozen cave rat people leading a group of half-rat people on this scale. ”

"If there is a nezumi warlord, a nezumi leader who is equivalent to the combat power of building a foundation, there must be no doubt that it will be a nezumi tribe of no small size!" Dahl patiently explained.

"Do these nezumi often attack humans like this?" said Liu Yu as he looked at the Northland woman and the silver giant wolf who were struggling to resist the siege of the nezumi.

"No, these nezumi are filthy and cunning, and often sneak up on risky mercenaries walking in underground grottoes, killing the men on the spot, and the women—" Dahl was a little speechless about the latter words.

"How?" Liu Yu couldn't help frowning and asked.

"Tie yourself back to the lair and commit adultery unto death!" said Dahl in a cold voice, and he couldn't say anything more disgusting.

If the nun unfortunately falls into the hands of these nezumi, it will be like going to hell, and she will be ruined day and night, and she will be the reproductive machine of the cave rat people.

The nezumi took the initiative to plunder and imprison the nuns, in order to breed offspring, and from some of the defeated nezumi tribes, they were often able to rescue many miserable women who were hollow and numb like walking corpses.

"Don't you care about the Winter Water Alliance?" Liu Yu's heart suddenly became angry, when this kind of thing happened, could it be that the "Winter Water Alliance", as the lord of the northern land, would just sit idly by?

It is said that a long time ago, not only in the underground grottoes, but also on the ground, these rat people were very rampant, but after hundreds of thousands of years of suppression and eradication by the "Winter Water Alliance", these rat people were driven to the underground grottoes. ”

"These rat people reproduce too fast, and the terrain of the underground grotto is complex, after hiding in this underground grotto, it is difficult to kill it, even if every thousand years the "Winter Water Alliance" will carry out a large-scale cleanup, but the underground grotto is too deep, too complicated, there will always be some fish that slip through the net, and then they will die and burn again. Dahl said helplessly.

Of course, the "Winterwater Alliance" has always encouraged underground adventurous mercenaries to kill these filthy ratmen, and various mercenary chapters will issue clean-up tasks from time to time, each pair of half-rat ears can be exchanged for two mercenary contributions, and each grotto rat head can be exchanged for thirty mercenary contributions. Dahl continued.

Therefore, there are many hunting teams composed of mercenaries in the underground grottoes, who specialize in taking on these cleaning tasks and go to clear the nezumi caves, or nezumi tribes.

Not only can you redeem mercenary contribution points for hunting nezumi, but you'll also be lucky enough to find a lot of precious minerals from nezumi caves, and these nezumi are naturally good at digging minerals, which is a windfall.

Of course, there are also news from time to time that they kicked the iron plate, were killed by the ferocious rat people, and a team of people were wiped out, which came from various mercenary union branches, and mercenary hunting teams like this have high risks and high rewards.

But even if bad news comes out from time to time, there are still a large number of underground adventure mercenaries who hunt rat people for a living, picking on "rat dens" and some small tribes.
