"grumble!"

"grumble!"

A faint, shrill cry was heard. Thales pricked up his ears, lay on the ground and listened, and said in surprise: "Father, there seems to be a sound down there?"

"Yeah, I heard it too, let's go down and take a look!" Rhett pretended to be surprised, pulled Thales' arm, and jumped down from the top of the waterfall.

Wind elements gathered quickly, and dots of green light surrounded the two of them. Like feathers, they floated down lightly and landed steadily on the water.

It's not that he floats on the water, Rhett doesn't have that ability, but before landing, Rhett froze the lake surface under his feet, forming a piece of translucent floating ice.

Endless water splashes.

It was like the setting Milky Way, a magnificent scene. Rhett was in high spirits and admired it for a while outside.

Not long after, he pointed at the waterfall and slowly said, "There should be a water curtain cave inside, and four monsters are fighting inside!"

"Well, the sound I heard just now is very much like a rat-like monster. Could it be a white-eyed rat?" Thales asked, staring at the waterfall.

"Well, there are two more ice rats!" Rhett said softly.

After saying that, he pulled Thales and rushed towards the waterfall.

Even though the waterfall above was powerful and slightly cool, it didn't faze Rhett.

Under the control of mental power, the earth element quickly condensed, and a huge rock suddenly appeared, blocking the waterfall.

Endless water splashes scattered in all directions, as if silver rain fell from the sky, thus creating a spacious space below. A cave with a diameter of about four meters came into view. It looked dark at first glance, and nothing could be seen clearly from the outside.

After walking in quickly, the environment was still dark, but a blue light could be vaguely seen flashing in front, and wisps of coldness emanated.

There were countless pits of varying widths and scratches by sharp claws on the ground and walls, as well as many translucent blue ice cones, which showed that they had just experienced a great battle.

Still going on at this time!

The one blue and three white figures were like arc-shaped lightning, moving at an extremely fast speed, flashing phantoms in the cave.

Rhett condensed the light element, illuminating the cave. He immediately observed the ice rat. It was covered with scars and scratches from sharp claws. Its hair stood on end. It was obviously at a disadvantage, but its eyes were filled with a strong desire to survive and fight.

The fangs kept rubbing against each other, making angry and nervous noises.

Thales' eyes widened, and he also saw the four flashes of light, and was suddenly startled: "Huh? That's not right, father, didn't you say two ice mice and three white-eyed mice?"

"Or did one die?"

However, after looking around carefully, Thales did not find any bodies except for the bright red bloodstains on the ground and the damaged and broken terrain.

"One of them... is in the belly of the ice rat. Its life breath is very weak, so you can't sense it." Rhett's faint voice sounded.

In an instant, Thales froze in place, his eyes almost filled with joy as he cheered:

"Ice rat cub? Doesn't this mean... I can have my own magical beast?"

Lei Te glanced at Thales with a smile in his eyes: "Don't you want a flying monster?"

"Ah this..." Thales choked, touched the back of his head, and said embarrassedly:

"Actually, I think... Shushu is pretty cute too. I think Mina must like petite and cute guys, too."

"Once you've made a decision, you can't go back on your word. Father will help you get it!" Rhett patted Thales' head and spoke very quickly. He squinted his eyes and looked at the crisis in the battle situation in front of him. There was no time to delay. The ice rat was in a dangerous situation and might collapse at any time and receive a fatal blow.

So, Rhett immediately cast a quicksand spell!

The four fourth-level monsters in front of them were fighting fiercely. Two of them blocked the front and back of the Ice Rat, making it attacked from both sides. The other one was always located close to the cave entrance to prevent the Ice Rat from escaping. A preliminary tactical configuration had been formed.

Suddenly.

The moist soil on the ground in the cave became like liquid, but it was extremely sticky, and it exerted a crazy attraction like a whirlpool!

The four rodent monsters were caught off guard and immediately fell into the trap. They squeaked in panic and tried their best to move with their four legs, but they sank deeper and deeper!

"Squeak"

"Squeak"

"Squeak"

Panicked cries continued one after another, and whether it was the white-eyed rat or the ice rat, there was a hint of deep fear in their eyes.

Earth Spike Magic! Lei Te did not hesitate and cast three consecutive Earth Spike Magic at the three white-eyed rats trapped in the quicksand.

Three ochre-colored spikes broke through the ground!

In an instant, the three white-eyed mice were strung together like gourds, then thrown into the air. Even though their limbs flapped in the air, they were unable to break free.

Blood flowed slowly along the spikes, and the life breath of the three white-eyed rats quickly faded away.

"Thales!" Rhett glanced at his third son.

"Understood!" Thales knew what to do without being reminded. He looked at the white-eyed mouse excitedly. Thinking that he would soon have a baby ice mouse, he would probably be so excited that he couldn't sleep at night.

Shadow Arrow! A silent black arrow stabbed at one of the white-eyed rats very stealthily.

Although this shadow arrow was extremely obvious to the White-Eyed Rat, it was fixed by the spikes and could only watch the shadow arrow shoot towards it.

The fear in my heart was infinitely magnified.

"Squeak!" "Squeak!" The three white-eyed mice wailed and screamed, and even began to beg for mercy.

The white-eyed rat is like this, it will be unscrupulous when facing a weak opponent. If it cannot defeat the opponent in a one-on-one fight, it will call for help. If it cannot defeat the opponent even if it calls for help, it will flee. If it cannot escape, it will beg for mercy. It is the most cunning and intelligent among the monsters.

Thales remained unmoved. Facing this motionless target, he seemed to have returned to the days when he was the executioner at the canyon defense line. Soon, he executed them one by one!

[Family members surpass two levels to kill the enemy, destiny value +2]

After three light screen prompts appeared in succession, Rhett turned his gaze to the Ice Rat with satisfaction. At this time, the effect of the quicksand spell had ended. The Ice Rat was still in a trance after being freed from the life-and-death crisis. When he saw the two people blocking the entrance of the cave, he trembled and dared not look directly at them.

As a fourth-level magical beast, even though the IQ of the Ice Rat was not as high as that of a human, it knew that the two people in front of it had just killed the other three white-eyed rats, and they were strong men that it could not match! So it squatted in the corner trembling, looking pitifully, occasionally looking towards Lei Te, and dared not move.

“Squeak!”

“Squeak!”

Seeing this, Rhett smiled, walked to the three white-eyed mice, took out a tool knife, and took out three green magic crystals with skillful operations.

Then he slowly walked to the front of the Ice Rat and threw the three corpses on the ground.

Looking up at Rhett, who was smiling, the Ice Rat vaguely understood that the other party was planning to give it the mortal enemy as food.

So the Ice Mouse wagged its tail in gratitude. It didn't understand human etiquette and only followed its instinct, wagging its light blue but slender tail left to right.

Then he quickly pounced on the corpse of the white-eyed rat, his eyes flashing with a sense of pleasure of revenge and a desire to eat.

Chi chi Chi chi The ice rat swung its claws and buried its head in its sharp teeth to gnaw on the flesh. From time to time, the sound of skin being torn and flesh being chewed could be heard.

Within a few minutes, only some broken bones, fur, and bright red blood remained at the location where the three white-eyed rats' bodies had been.

The full stomach of the Ice Rat looked even sweller! The look it gave Leiter was full of gratitude, but out of fear and caution in its heart, it never dared to approach.

"Father...are we going to kill it next?" Thales glanced at the ice rat and then looked at his father.

Although I feel a little cruel in my heart, in the end, other than my family, I don't care about other things. Especially when it comes to interests, I will never give in...

"Well, it looks like she's about to give birth. She'll give birth to a cub in less than ten days." Lei Te stared at the blue-white belly of the Ice Rat and said, "Wait until it's born, and snatch it away before the cub opens its eyes."

"Not bad." Thales nodded.

Then, Lei pulled Thales to the side wall of the cave, making way for the Ice Rat to open a wide path to the outside.

The Ice Rat blinked and looked back and forth between Rhett and the waterfall outside the cave.

Finally, after realizing what it meant, that it was letting itself escape, the Ice Rat excitedly accelerated and wagged its tail, then rushed directly out of the cave! "Father, why did you let it run away?" Thales said in surprise.

Lei Te said calmly: "Don't worry, just let it go out for a ride, we will catch up quickly."

Thales felt relieved when he heard this, and quickly followed Rhett and left the cave.

During the next hour's journey, we did not encounter any more monsters.

They crossed the lake, jumped over the valley, followed the footsteps of the Ice Rat all the way, and came to the foot of a small hill on the White Rat branch.

The Ice Rat watched Rhett following behind him. Although he was confused and afraid of his strength, and with what he had just experienced, he was not overly resistant to these two humans.

But out of the alertness of the Warcraft, it would still turn its head from time to time to see if there was anything disadvantageous to it.

It was not until they reached the foot of the mountain and saw that the two men had not done anything wrong that Ice Rat's frightened heart finally settled down a little.

Then, under the watchful eyes of Rhett and Thales, it kicked its limbs and bounced up more than 20 meters.

Then it grabbed hold of the slightly raised rock with its front legs and hit its little head hard against the hill.

Thales, who was wondering why his father brought him here, saw the scene in front of him and asked in surprise: "What is it doing? Is it trying to commit suicide?"

Lei Te pretended to be surprised and smiled, "Haha... I roughly know what it's going to do. Just watch it patiently."

After listening to his father's words, Thales was thoughtful, still curious, and refocused his attention on the Ice Rat.

Crackling The sound of rocks breaking came from above.

Several small pieces of gravel then rolled down and hit the two people's feet.

"Father, there is a small hole there!" Thales suddenly shouted, pointing upwards, and said, "It looks a bit like a rat hole, but it's bigger than an ordinary rat hole."

“It’s a rat hole.”

"Huh?" Thales turned to look at his father.

"Deep inside this mountain, there is a white-eyed rat nest. It's not very large, and there are only a few cubs inside..." Lei Te said thoughtfully, "I suspect... they are most likely the offspring of the three white-eyed rats in the Water Curtain Cave just now."

"What? There are three white-eyed rat cubs here!" Thales shouted in disbelief.

"Well, Thales, don't shout." Lei Te smiled and said, "The straight-line distance between us and them is about several hundred meters, and the three cubs are still sleeping soundly.

I think most rat-like monsters hold grudges, and this ice rat may be here for revenge."

"Oh, I see!" Thales suddenly realized, and then a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes: "Father, then you must stop the Ice Rat quickly, and don't let it eat the three white-eyed rat cubs!"

"Don't worry!" Rhett said confidently.

Then there was a rumbling sound from the ground.

Under Thales's surprised gaze, the ground under Rhett's feet began to shake, and a square stone platform quickly rose up, slowly reaching a height of fifty meters before stopping.

Rhett is not a wind magician and cannot fly, so he can only use this method to elevate his position.

He concentrated his mental power, and the rocks in the hill before him began to loosen one by one, flipping over and rolling toward the outside.

Boom boom boom boom

Stones were falling, and Thales could not help but grin as he heard the dull sound in his ears. He knew that his father was going to take those cubs away.

Above, as the stones in front of us gradually disappeared, a long and narrow passage was formed. Dozens of meters deep, a wide and open space suddenly appeared.

The Ice Rat that was climbing up the hole was suddenly startled, noticed Rhett's actions, and immediately stood there at a loss.

Rhett was not in a hurry to take the cubs away. Instead, he mobilized the dark elements, pushed them into the rat's nest, and wrapped the three cubs so that they could not see the outside environment.

Fortunately, the three little guys had not opened their eyes yet. Being wrapped in the dark elements, they did not react much. They shook twice and continued to sleep.

After a few minutes, the narrow passage ahead was continuously developed by Rhett and became wider and wider.

Finally, when the space was wide enough for him to pass through, he jumped over and quickly rushed to the three white-eyed rat cubs.

At this time, a dark mist enveloped the three cubs, and there were dried bloodstains on the ground, which were obviously left during childbirth.

Rhett's mouth curled up. The three cubs in front of him were only the size of his ears. They were curled up and shaking, their skin was red, and they had not grown a single hair.

"It looks like the baby was only two or three days old..." Rhett estimated.

If you take them back immediately, for seven days, the three cubs will be shielded from the outside world, so the impact should not be too great! Two-in-one, long wait Thanks in the 'Writer's Words'
