Chapter 877: Run Into Rats
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Come on, we got to get out of here! Let’s go!” Seeing those mutated dogs leave, the group of people thought that something even scarier might be in the building, so they couldn’t stay there.
From a room on the top floor, Lin Qiao watched those dogs being scared away by her vibe, then saw those people run out of the building out of fear, heading toward All Beings Base.
She had restrained her power. So, those dogs might have sensed her scent, which was dangerous as well. Hence, they didn’t dare to approach the building.
A short while after those people left, she leaped off the roof.
She thought for a second, then entered her s.p.a.ce to bring out Black, Bowwow, and the mushroom. As expected, the four of them came out of the s.p.a.ce to another strange place. Lin Qiao took out an off-road car from her s.p.a.ce and sat in the driver’s seat.
Her power was disabled, and she would end up in random spots when she exited her s.p.a.ce. However, she could still smoothly take things out of her s.p.a.ce or put things in.
Without her superpower, she was weakened by at least sixty percent. She was still able to defend herself with her physical strength and combat skills, but she shouldn’t be staying outside with strangers at the moment.
Therefore, she drove away when she sensed human scents to avoid running into strangers.
Thankfully, every time she exited her s.p.a.ce, she would be no further than twenty miles away from where she was before.
When she came out of her s.p.a.ce with the three creatures, she was already in West Lake District, surrounded by thriving woods. So, she put the car back into her s.p.a.ce after a short drive.
After all, there was no road to drive on.
The road was covered in gra.s.ses and vines, or the branches that belonged to the trees on both sides. Some areas were damaged by mutated beasts, so no car could drive through.
Lin Qiao had no choice but to move on foot.
“Owowowo!” Bowwow hadn’t come out to play for a long time. Once out, he ran about with excitement, darting from side to side happily. Even the lazy Black reared up his head excitedly and crawled through the woods and gra.s.s.
As for the mushroom that never stopped running, it was, of course, was as thrilled as Bowwow.
“Owowowowo…” Soon, Bowwow brought a black rat that was half his own size back to Lin Qiao.
Looking at that big rat, she was a little speechless.
Was the dog trying to tell her how long he and his little friend didn’t have any meat for?
She also sensed the attractive aroma of the rat. She licked her lips as hunger rose from her stomach. Indeed, she hadn’t eaten anything in a long time.
“Alright, this will be enough for me. Go and get more if you also want some,” Lin Qiao told Bowwow to drop that level-three rat that was still struggling, and then keep hunting for himself.
In fact, even before Bowwow brought the rat to Lin Qiao, the other two creatures had rushed into the rat group and started catching rats with joy.
Yes, Lin Qiao had jumped into the zoo when she exited her s.p.a.ce this time. She didn’t fall into the rat group though. She and the three creatures showed up not far away from the group of rats.
The rat attempted to run once Bowwow threw it to the ground. But, Lin Qiao looked at it as she popped her sharp claw and swung her hand.
Puff! The rat’s head immediately fell off. Without the head, it still twitched its limbs for a while.
Meanwhile, Lin Qiao walked over and observed the rat. It was as large as a medium-sized dog. Its fur was s.h.i.+ny, smooth, and clean, containing a slight amount of energy.
Because of that energy, the rat didn’t have parasites or anything like that.
She dug out the rat’s nucleus and put it on her palm, which turned into dust and faded away within two seconds. After that, she brought the rat’s body to a clean area and started peeling it. While peeling the rat, she cut off the meat with her claws and threw it into her mouth.
Em, it was fresh, tender, soft and chewy.
As a zombie, Lin Qiao could either eat nothing or eat a lot. Maybe because of Viney, she recently had huge appet.i.te.
A level-three creature’s body didn’t contain a good amount of energy, but that energy could turn its meat very delicious.
While Lin Qiao was enjoying the rat meat quietly, the three creatures were running rampant through the rat group.
After the second explosion of the virus, many of that group of rats, which covered thousands of acres, were bitten by death by maniacal rats. So, the rat group was currently less thick than before. The rats were scattered, and their coverage had expanded.
At present, at least five or six square kilometers around the zoo had been occupied by those rats.
Lin Qiao had no idea about that yet. She was unconscious for nearly a month, so she didn’t know how fast that rat group had been expanding.
She was currently at the edge of the rat group, miles away from the zoo.
Black silently wriggled through the shades of trees, its cold eyes fixed on a level-four rat in a small group of rats.
The level-four rat was even larger than a large dog, weighing over a hundred kilometers, with smooth and glowing fur. The rat didn’t know that it had already become a target of a snake, its natural enemy. At that moment, it was biting a mutated deer. The surrounding rats kept a distance from it, as they were all at lower levels.
Abruptly, the rat raised its head and looked around alertly. Finding nothing unusual, it lowered its head and put a b.l.o.o.d.y piece of bone into its mouth with both forepaws.
Crack…
As the rat was enjoying the bone, a dark figure descended from the sky while a dangerous vibe suddenly locked on the rat. As a result, the level-four rat froze. It was so frightened by that vibe that it couldn’t even move. It wanted so much to run, but its limbs were too stiff to move.
It raised its head to see a giant snake with widely opened jaws come straight at it; the snake’s pair of poisonous fangs bared and threatening.
And just like that, the level-four rat died, its soul probably going to heaven.
“Squeak!” The giant snake stirred the group of rats which immediately sprung up and ran in all directions. Meanwhile, Black held the struggling rat in his mouth, mercilessly injecting venom into its body. Soon, the rat’s body softened and stopped moving.
After that, Black happily dragged the rat away, climbed onto a tree, and found a comfortable spot to slowly enjoy it.
