The small pets didn't mind the taste; they even specifically targeted the larger ones.
Gu Mingyue then released her spiritual realm.
He gracefully put on his gloves and held the meteorite sword upright in front of him, assuming a fighting stance.
Because the number of rats entering the space was too large, the mental control available to each rat was limited.
Many mice's movements were only slowed down slightly, but they were still very fast.
Gu Mingyue happened to be using them to train her reaction ability; it's no fun to always win in the mental realm.
These rats were similar to the ball-serving machine in Gu Mingyue's space, and with half the reaction speed before the apocalypse, they pounced on her from all directions.
The only difference is that they have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth.
The ball grazed her body without harm, but if those rats passed by, they would surely bite off a piece of her flesh.
During this time, several humanoid monsters and survivors also came out of the residential building to cause trouble.
Seeing that a rat had gnawed through her leather gloves, a cold glint flashed in Gu Mingyue's eyes.
"Xinghe, hand me two guns," Gu Mingyue shouted to Xinghe.
Outside, Xinghe helps her as a space-type ability user. Gu Mingyue doesn't plan to reveal that she possesses a space this time, so as not to be captured and studied again.
Xinghe is different. When the time comes, he can automatically return to the space. As long as Gu Mingyue doesn't die, he will be fine.
Upon hearing Gu Mingyue's call, Xinghe quickly used his largest spatial blade to clear away the nine rats around him. Then, he took out two guns from his spatial storage and threw them to Gu Mingyue.
Taking the gun, Gu Mingyue immediately began firing mercilessly.
Boom boom boom!
Chunks of meat splattered.
Bullets are faster than knives. Soon, within a ten-meter radius centered on Gu Mingyue, the ground was littered with the corpses of mutated rats.
Seeing that half of the rat army had died, one of the largest and most agile rats squeaked.
Upon hearing the sound, the other rats immediately turned around, stopped attacking Gu Mingyue, and all ran frantically towards a manhole cover in the distance.
"Little mouse, you're not strong enough to fight me head-on!" Seeing the mouse swarm retreating, Gu Mingyue quickly called her pets to follow.
The enormous rat was furious. It had never seen such ferocious humans before. Logically, their numbers were dozens of times greater than the humans'. The humans it had just eaten were all terrified and ran away in terror, their bones gnawed away.
How can these two fragile humans not feel fear!
If it weren't for the fact that it felt a dull ache in its head whenever it got close to that woman.
If it had commanded all its companions to fight those two to the death, and had seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, it would have been able to capture one of them. It had already kindly let them go, yet they still relentlessly pursued it.
This annoyed it, and as it ran, it looked back at the two despicable humans and the ten wretched little pet lackeys beside them.
Gu Mingyue knew that it was unrealistic to leave all the rats alive to harvest the crystal cores, so she simply focused her attention on the largest rat in the group.
He held the gun and fired continuously at the largest rat. Just as the rat was hit in the buttocks and its speed decreased, it was still a meter away from the manhole cover.
The rat king, the most advanced to emerge in the apocalypse, had eyes as small as beans that were already filled with the light of hope.
Just then.
Gu Mingyue picked up the little green snake, swung it around in the air, and then threw it at it.
The mouse had just jumped into the sewer opening when its tail was suddenly bitten, leaving it suspended in mid-air. It turned around in a daze and found a small, bright green snake biting the base of its tail.
If it could talk, it would definitely be spewing profanities at this point.
Gu Mingyue quickly ran over and scooped up the little snake's dangling body: "Not bad, Xiao Qing, you caught a big one!"
After saying that, Gu Mingyue pulled the rat out of its mouth.
Before the rat could even open its mouth to bite, it split its head open.
The nucleus in this brain was heavier and brighter than those in other mice, clearly indicating that it was also in the mid-stage of stage one.
None of the other rats could harm Gu Mingyue in the slightest, except for this rat that knew how to ambush.
Gu Mingyue didn't mind and directly absorbed the rat's crystal core.
Having absorbed two mid-stage level one crystal cores, she vaguely sensed the beginnings of a mid-stage level one crystal core.
The reason why humans lost in the past was because the monsters had no dietary restrictions; they would even gnaw on anything that could replenish their energy, including excrement.
Humans, on the other hand, are much more civilized. They only absorb crystal cores and rarely eat meat. It wasn't until humans distinguished that the meat of mutated beasts was edible, while the meat of mutated monsters with pustules was inedible, that they were able to eat it.
The mutant beasts, the animal monsters with pustules, and the humanoid monsters all have superpower levels that are already two levels higher than those of humans.
So Gu Mingyue didn't waste any time and had Xinghe pick out all the mutated rat corpses on the ground that didn't have pustules and put them into the crystal core space.
She didn't plan to eat the rats, but that wouldn't stop her from using their meat to exchange for other useful things later.
You should know that the meat of mutated beasts will be extremely rare and hard to come by in the future. Even rats, which were despised by everyone before the apocalypse, will be something that ordinary humans can only dream of.
Gu Mingyue was happily selecting crystal cores when a couple fleeing in the distance spotted them.
"Ugh, they're so filthy, they even pick up dead rats," one of the women said in a low voice, her voice filled with disgust.
"Never mind them, the humanoid monsters behind us are about to catch up. Let's find a place to hide quickly," the man said.
Now, Gu Mingyue has excellent hearing and eyesight, and can hear the two whispering from ten meters away.
However, she ignored it and felt it was normal to feel dirty now.
If they wait another month, they will find that apart from mutated plants, mutated beasts, and mutated insects, there are no ordinary plants or animals for them to eat.
Even if hardworking people eliminate the monsters around them and clear out a piece of land, and sow seeds, those plants will not survive, because the land and rivers of Blue Star have long been polluted by black rain.
Only plants carefully nurtured in water by plant-based and water-based ability users can retain their original harmless appearance and taste.
But who, apart from those with top-tier superpowers and those with the highest power, is worthy of enjoying such a rare item!
Gu Mingyue shook her head slightly, her hands moving without stopping, continuing to pick through the crystal cores and toss the corpses to Xinghe to store in her space.
"Roar roar roar!"
Several humanoid monsters rushed out from the spot the young couple had just mentioned.
Several panicked superpowered individuals and humans followed in front.
Humans were constantly being pounced on and torn apart by those incredibly fast humanoid monsters.
Several kind-hearted superhumans unleashed their abilities, sending out fireballs the size of half a fist, leaf-like golden blades, and small clods of earth.
It's like tickling those humanoid monsters; it's not only weak, but also inaccurate and slow.
Soon, several superhumans and burly men wielding weapons were pounced on and devoured by the humanoid monster.
