"Okay, okay! Stop playing. Mengmeng, go find Xiao Qingqing quickly. You have to hide her and don't let Da Qingqing meet her. Otherwise, Da Qingqing will die." Cai Donghu and the little hamster said anxiously.
He roughly guessed that the Corpse King had played him to death, otherwise, with the Corpse King's temperament, how could he lie there motionless?
When the little hamster lived in the space, he was very free and easy, and he got a lot of benefits from Cai Donghu. He gave Cai Donghu face. After taking a look at the appearance of Lin Baobao that Cai Donghu had created, he squeaked to show that he understood.
Due to physical limitations, it cannot speak, but it can basically understand human speech.
Most of Li Mengmeng's memories of it were lost, leaving only some fragmentary images.
But it didn't become stupid. Instead, it became more and more clever as it advanced.
It shrunk its body by a size, dug a hole through the cracks in the rubble, and blended silently into the world outside the city wall.
“Squeak!”
“Squeak…”
Soon, the little hamster's howling attracted a large number of its little mice.
White mice, gray mice, black mice, big-tailed squirrels, hamsters, they are all mice anyway.
They received the information sent by the rat boss and naturally obeyed the orders of the higher-level rats.
A shocking black mass of various rats suddenly poured in like a tide from outside the base wall.
Bang, bang, bang...
When the soldiers guarding the city saw the swarm of rats, they subconsciously opened fire.
But there were too many rats, and many of them were mutant rats. They were very fast, and even if they were hit by bullets, they would only be injured at most.
"Ah... run! There's a rat!"
The first person to discover the rats screamed and ran away.
The resident in the shack heard the noise and his eyes lit up. Rats? What's there to be afraid of? That's meat!
They rushed out of their shacks as quickly as if they had gotten up in the morning to grab some porridge, only to see thousands of rats crawling into the city wall.
“Squeak—”
“Squeak—”
“…”
The sounds of rats could be heard from all directions. The strange thing was that after these rats jumped into the city wall, they did not attack humans.
Instead, they stood on their hind legs with their front limbs bent. They looked around with their heads raised and their ears erect, as if they were looking for something.
After the soldiers of the 520th Army guarding the city wall fired several bursts of bullets, they found that these rats did not actively attack humans. Only the injured ones would get angry and bite.
Everyone was extremely surprised, and their trigger fingers slowed down. "What are they going to do?"
Everyone has such doubts in their hearts.
At this moment, commanders in various places received a notice from their superiors to suspend the attack.
The commanders supervising the battle were very puzzled, but they still stopped their soldiers. One commander hurried to the command post and shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Commander Chen, why did you stop the attack?"
Commander Chen lowered his head to fiddle with the communicator. Upon hearing this, he suddenly looked up and cast a sharp gaze at the commander who had broken in.
The commander's scalp tingled when he was looked at by him. The adjutant beside the commander kept giving him a look, and he finally remembered to stand at attention and salute: "Report!"
Commander Chen asked coldly, "Are you questioning me?"
"Sir, I don't dare." The commander stood at attention again with his chest and stomach straightened.
"Get out!" Commander Chen pulled up his sleeve to cover the communicator and reached for the telescope on the table.
"Yes." The commander walked away dejectedly.
The adjutant beside Commander Chen cautiously examined his new commander's expression and said, "Commander, with so many mutant rats pouring into the base, it would be inappropriate for us not to kill them all... If they bite anyone, they'll infect a large area. If anyone gets caught, it'll be our responsibility."
"Let's observe first. At least they are not actively hurting anyone now." Commander Chen was using a telescope. He saw in the magnified field of view that the mutant rats continued to pour in. His face was not looking good, but his words were firm.
Commander Chen is Inspector Chen. This is his first day officially taking over the 520th Army after returning to the base.
The task of guarding the city gate was originally the easiest, and the superiors also gave him time to get used to the troops.
Finally he saw the little hamster.
"Squeak!" It even greeted me!
After saying hello, it jumped into the city wall riding a big squirrel.
Inspector Chen didn't know what the little hamster wanted to do, but he and the little hamster had stayed in the space for more than a year, and he knew clearly that this hamster understood human nature.
And, it seems to be the little devil's pet?
Inspector Chen felt a warm glow at the thought of his companions in space. After returning to the capital, he busied himself with investigating how a major general like him could be interrogated on the mothership. By the time he'd finished his power struggle, months had already passed.
"Captain, I think this is a bit risky. Before anything catastrophic happens, let's kill them all. The mutant beasts have crystal cores in their bodies, and their meat can be eaten..."
Speaking of meat, Inspector Chen's adjutant couldn't help but lick his lips and swallow his saliva. "I heard that eating mutant beast meat can enhance immunity..."
"Shut up!" Inspector Chen shouted coldly, "We are soldiers. Protecting the people is our duty. Now that they haven't attacked humans, do you want me to start a war first?"
"But, Chief, they are not of our race, so their hearts must be different!" The adjutant was still reluctant to take action. They were standing there like targets, why couldn't he attack them?
Can humans still be friends with mice?
"With so many mutant rats, how many bullets and lives will it take to kill them all?" Inspector Chen snorted coldly. "Follow orders! If you have any objections, you can write me a report afterwards."
Inspector Chen's eyes flashed with murderous intent. As his deputy, he had too many opinions.
He doesn't need someone like that.
He only needs his men to follow his orders and doesn't need them to give him advice.
To be honest, even if the little hamster was not there, as long as these mutant rats did not attack humans, why would humans fight them to the death?
They were short of food, but they couldn't be morally insecure. If they started fighting, casualties would be enormous. In his eyes, it was a senseless sacrifice; the soldiers' lives were far more important than food. Moreover, as far as he knew, the food reserves in the base's State-owned Assets Bureau would last at least another two to three years.
"Yes!" The adjutant felt that the commander's tone was unhappy and he felt extremely depressed, but he could only stand at attention and salute.
I sent a million swear words to the other person in my heart!
The airborne commander must be a relative of his own! He knows nothing and can't even get the meat.
He was thinking that he had to kill a few mutant rats no matter what. Looking at their size, one could stew an entire pot.
Here, the guard captain and guard Xing Xin were also discussing this issue, "It's too much to stew in one pot!"
Several mutant rats that just passed by looked to weigh more than ten pounds.
"Let's eat first." Lin Qingqing was hungry after hearing them say so.
