Tao Wei and Wei Yangguo were somewhat surprised and unbelievable after hearing what Chen Ruoruo said. They didn't expect her to say such a thing. Looking at the fools and wolf kings beside her, they didn't know whether she was these mutant animals or she could say such big words because of her own strength.
This was not the first time that Han Xiao and his group heard Chen Ruoruo say such words, so they knew what she meant, or perhaps it was just the literal meaning. They looked at Chen Ruoruo's back, their eyes fixed on the darkness not far away, and mobilized their special abilities to be on guard.
As the sporadic noises around became more and more obvious, everyone became visibly nervous, and the air gradually became filled with a strong sense of oppression and urgency.
Suddenly, exclamations of alarm were heard from all parts of the convoy, followed by screams and loud warnings.
"Ah..." A terrified scream broke the surrounding silence and tense atmosphere.
".What is that..." Along with the scream, there were many voices of fear and confusion. With the dim headlights of the car, the team members could only see a lot of black things running towards them quickly.
"Why are there so many..."
"It's a rat, a mutant rat..." Suddenly, someone saw the true face of the black thing and shouted.
"Ah... I was bitten..." After a scream, followed by a painful groan.
"Everyone be careful... these guys will bite..." Zhou Zhiguo's warning sounded in everyone's walkie-talkie, but it seemed a little too late. The mutant rats came like a tide, attacking the members of the convoy without mercy.
"Ah, I got bitten too..."
For a moment, the entire convoy was plunged into chaos. The team members instinctively fled in all directions, trying to avoid the rats' attacks. Screams, shouts, and cries mingled together, forming a symphony of terror.
At the same time, Chen Ruoruo witnessed a hillock-like swarm of rats, invading them like a wave. Han Xiao, Tao Wei, and the others had just heard screams from all around them, and the next moment they saw the pile of rats rushing towards them. Their pupils involuntarily dilated, and they stared intently, unblinking.
"Oh my god, how can there be so many..." Tao Wei couldn't help but sigh.
"Everyone be careful..." Han Xiao mobilized his special abilities and reminded everyone at the same time.
"These mutant rats are surprisingly fast despite their small size and have a super strong bite force. Everyone must be careful and don't let these guys get close to you..." Ma Qian reminded.
"Oh my god..." Li Jun looked at the densely packed rats, and a hint of fear flashed across his eyes.
In just a moment, the mutant rats that were originally in the same place had now come closer. They pounced madly on the humans not far away like a swarm of locusts.
Seeing this, Han Xiao and Tao Wei immediately mobilized their powers, doing their utmost to resist. Tao Dan and several other fire-type users manipulated fireballs to continuously fling them at the swarming rats. Han Xiao, Tao Wei, Mou Jiao, and other wood-type users manipulated the surrounding mutant plants, encircling the rats like a dragnet.
Li Jun and Wei Yangguo and several other earth-type ability users quickly built a solid and thick earth wall in front of everyone.
Ma Qian led the water-type mutants to condense ice cones and threw them hard at the mutant rats. As for the other gold-type mutants, they controlled their weapons and attacked the mutant rats that were approaching.
However, although the fireballs successfully burned many mutant rats to death after rolling through the rat tide, the mutant vines also trapped many mutant rats. The earth walls seemed to effectively block the mutant rats that rushed up, and the ice cones and weapons thrown out also killed many mutant rats.
However, the gap left by the fireball was quickly filled by the surging swarm of rats. The mutant plants that had originally restrained the mutant rats were also quickly bitten off by their sharp teeth.
Even those seemingly solid earth walls were scratched through by these crazy mutant rats in just a moment, and the mutant rats killed by ice sculptures and weapons were insignificant in the face of the huge rat tide.
All the seemingly effective measures taken by Han Xiao and his team failed in the end. The number of mutant rats was too large and they were extremely ferocious, making it difficult to cope with them.
Han Xiao and the others watched as the rat horde continued to surge in like a tide. At this rate, their powers would soon be exhausted. Although they knew this fact, they still controlled their powers and continued to fight the rat horde.
"Yangguo, be careful..." Tao Wei watched as several mutant rats drilled through the earthen wall in front of him and rushed towards Wei Yangguo. He quickly warned them and mobilized the mutant plants to stop them. Although he knew it might not help, he still did it.
"..." Wei Yangguo had no time to react. He saw several guys with black bodies, scarlet eyes, yellow teeth and sharp claws suddenly rushing towards him. He also smelled a foul odor coming towards him. His first reaction was that he might not be able to escape this time. He watched helplessly as the guy got closer and closer to him.
However, when he looked at the ugly guys in front of him, he suddenly felt dazed for a moment and felt that their speed seemed to have slowed down a lot. He was about to reach out to confirm when a voice exploded in his ears.
"Get out of the way..." Suddenly, a fireball hit Wei Yangguo's face.
"...Thank you..." Wei Yangguo reached out and wiped the hot spot on his face. When he turned around, he saw Tao Dan's young face. She frowned and glanced at him, then threw the fireball in her hand out again.
"Everyone concentrate..." Han Xiao turned his head to glance at Wei Yangguo, then spoke again.
"Captain Han, we can't go on like this... There are just too many of these things..." Li Jun said from the side.
"Captain Han, if this continues, our abilities will be exhausted sooner or later..." Mou Jiao
"..." Han Xiao's face was solemn and he remained silent.
"There seem to be more and more of these guys..." Ma Qian said, with a hint of panic in his voice.
"Protect Ruoruo..." Han Xiao frowned and looked around, speaking in a very serious voice.
"Yes..." Everyone answered immediately, and then slowly approached Chen Ruoruo, slowly standing in front of her, protecting her behind everyone.
"Don't let them get close to the supplies, try to gather them all..." Chen Ruoruo's words suddenly rang out behind everyone.
"What?" Everyone said in unison.
