The lower floors were blocked off, which delayed things a little. Yu Yanbin and Xiao Peng took a few steps behind everyone and finally made it to the top floor.
At this time, the rooftop was covered with a thick layer of snow, which was above the calves and almost reached the thighs.
Cheng Shaolin had already set the fire on the rooftop when he came up, and the snow layer on the rooftop visibly decreased, thinned, and eventually disappeared.
Stepping through the wet water, everyone quickly ran to the edge of the top floor, where there was a wall about a person's height surrounding the area.
Seeing that he couldn't see downstairs, Xiao Peng built a row of steps along the wall, so that when someone stood on them, they could just see the ground below.
"Oh my god."
The downstairs floor was covered with a black carpet; if you weren't paying attention, you might actually think that was the case.
Xiao Peng built a circle of earthen walls around the building, enclosing the semi-circle in front of the building and keeping visitors out.
More and more rats are gathering outside the earthen wall, and some are even coming this way.
"How much is left?" Tian Tian asked, a little apprehensive.
Girls are already afraid of ugly things, let alone all this.
The sheer quantity is unprecedented.
"It's too big, and there's no better way. If all else fails, we'll just run."
Cheng Shaolin did not refute Yu Yanbin's words. He had also considered that the chances of winning against so many rats were slim. If he were to be bitten by a rat, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Xiaoxiao, do you have anything that can deal with them?" Shao Jie looked at Li Xiao with a glimmer of hope, hoping to get a positive answer from her.
Li Xiao shook her head, her eyes filled with worry.
The glimmer of hope that had just been kindled by those who still clung to it was extinguished with a snap.
"Let's see first. If we can't win, I still have things to use to escape."
Everyone turned to look at Li Xiao, their eyes gleaming.
"It's alright, I can still survive," Li Xiao said confidently.
"call--".
That's it.
I'm afraid I won't even be able to save my life.
I have never encountered such a situation before, and I have never experienced a choice between life and death.
They were all very heavy-hearted, and this was the first time they had ever been so tense.
Li Xiao wanted to see things more clearly, and then she remembered something that could help her see them more clearly.
She searched through the space and, thankfully, the item was with the weapons, so she found it quickly.
She pulled out a box. "Quick, one for each of you."
Hearing her say that, everyone came down and looked into the box, each taking one.
With everyone carrying a telescope, the view became very clear.
"Oh my god!" Tian Tian felt a chill run down her spine as soon as she saw it, and goosebumps rose all over her body.
"This is fucking disgusting, what kind of crap is this?"
"Wow, that's huge, and disgusting."
When they finally saw it clearly, they wished they hadn't seen it so clearly.
The rats these days are much bigger than the rats people remember; some are as big as an adult cat.
They are all mutated rats, uglier and more ferocious.
The eyes are red, the mouth is more prominent, the front teeth are longer and protrude from the mouth, intersecting with the protruding lower jaw teeth.
As he opened his mouth, streams of liquid flowed out, trickling down his face.
The black fur on each mouse was like a steel cone, each hair standing on end, unlike the soft fur it had before.
Not only is he bigger, but he's also even more terrifying.
With such a grotesque appearance, it's clearly meant to scare people.
The number of these mutated rats increased, and the larger ones began to surge in.
Their path was blocked by the earthen wall, but it could not stop their determination.
Many rats even began to attack the earthen wall, stretching out their long, gleaming claws to scratch at it...
"Oh no, they're heading towards the earthen wall."
No one needs to say it; everyone has seen it.
More and more rats joined in, and the earthen wall began to develop pits and cracks of varying sizes, and more and more...
With so many rats, the earthen wall was no match for them. In the end, it was hollowed out, turned into a pile of ruins, and collapsed.
A cloud of yellow dust billowed up, and before the dust had even settled, the rats had already rushed into the building.
Despite being somewhat prepared, everyone felt uncertain upon seeing this offensive.
Even though they were on different floors, you could still hear some of the gnawing sounds.
"Oh my god, what are we going to do?"
"If we manage to gnaw through it, how long will it take to get up here?"
...
A series of questions, none of which could be answered.
Li Xiao looked to the side and saw that there were taller buildings around.
But then I thought, if I run away, won't those rats keep chasing me?
Where can they escape to?
It's more reliable to find a solution.
Cheng Shaolin stood silently to the side, seemingly deep in thought.
Li Xiao tugged at his clothes, "Brother, what are you thinking about?"
Cheng Shaolin looked over and said seriously, "I'm thinking about how to kill them."
Have you thought of it?
"There is a way, but it's not quite perfect yet."
Li Xiao was very interested. In this situation, it's best to do it first and think about it later.
"Tell me about it first."
Yu Yanbin, who was standing nearby, heard this and turned to look.
"Let's share our thoughts first, and then we can all think of them together."
"Yes, what is it?"
Cheng Shaolin looked at the rats still coming in from the ground and said, "We can't hide for long. Let's find a way to get rid of them."
"I've been thinking, we could lure these rats to a secluded spot, enclose it, and burn them inside. What do you think of that?"
