Chapter 431 The courageous rat born with super power (two chapters in one)
Spiritual world, Dongwu City.
Deep in the magnificent mansion, in the quiet corridor, a tall guard with spiritual energy fluctuations standing on his body stood some distance away.
Wu Xiong, who was pale, had a lot of gauze wrapped around his body, and looked very haggard, walked quickly to the end of the corridor.
This morning, after he came out of the yamen, he went to a medical center for a simple treatment, and then returned home without stopping.
At this moment, Wu Xiong felt very uneasy. The plan last night could be said to be a complete failure. He was a little embarrassed to see his master.
In the garden where birds were singing and flowers were fragrant, Wu Xingao was sitting in the pavilion reading a book when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps.
"Tap, step, step..."
Wu Xiong came to Wu Xingao and lowered his head in shame, "Master."
Holding a book in his hand Wu Xingao raised his head and looked at his trusted subordinates.
Putting the book in his hand on the stone table in front of him, he then reached out to pick up the purple clay pot, poured a cup of tea into his cup, took a sip, and said in a calm tone.
"You are seriously injured!"
"..." Wu Xiong was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "I'm okay, Zhang Di was injured more seriously, although he I have received treatment from a doctor, but for the past two days, I have not been able to get out of bed."
"You two, plus the assassins sent by the Blood Killing Sect, are three practitioners with peak second level. Who is actually not the opponent of the masked murderer?" Wu Xingao said.
He learned the news last night. At first glance, he thought the servant who came to report the situation to him was joking with him.
Originally, he had expected that no matter how strong the masked murderer was, he would be able to defeat one against two at most.
Unexpectedly, the opponent could actually fight one against three, and also occupy an absolute dominant position. Practitioners who can achieve this level can be said to be very rare.
"Master, that masked murderer is extraordinarily strong. After fighting him yesterday, I think he can be said to be the strongest among practitioners at the same level..." Wu Xiong recalled He said with a solemn expression about the scene of the fight with the masked murderer yesterday.
Only after having personal contact with the other party can one realize how terrifying he is. His profound spirit, which is far beyond ordinary people, can make people despair.
Wu Xingao looked at the expression on Wu Xiong's face and thought to himself that his trusted servant had already developed a psychological shadow on the masked murderer after the battle last night.
"The strongest among the practitioners of the same level? So what, after all, he is just a second-level peak practitioner."
"..." Wu Xiong nodded. It was indeed as Wu Xingao said, with Wu As long as the family's power is serious, it is still very simple to defeat a second-level peak practitioner.
"Master, this time it was our incompetence that made you lose face." Wu Xiong said very ashamed.
As Wu Xingao's confidant, he knows much more about the situation than others.
Last night's siege operation failed. Some people who are at odds with Wu Xingao will soon find out. They will definitely use this incident to taunt Wu Xingao, joking that he can't even reach a second-level peak. Done.
Wu Xingao looked at his trusted servant who looked ashamed. If it had been last night, he would have angrily scolded him for his poor performance.
Now after this night, most of my anger has gone away. I also know that this time the siege failed, mainly because the masked murderer was too strong, beyond everyone's expectations. The failure was not Wu Xiong's fault. .
"Don't keep this failure in mind. Even though you failed this time, it will be good if you can succeed next time." Wu Xingao comforted his close servant.
"Yes, Master." Wu Xiong looked at him with a moved face when he heard his master forgive him for his failure this time.
"Sit down and have a sip of tea!" As the head of the Wu family, he naturally had the means to win people's hearts at his fingertips. He saw Wu Xiong looking at him with a moved face, smiled and asked the other party to sit down, and then I personally poured the other person a cup of tea.
"Thank you, sir." Wu Xiong did not sit down, but stood and stretched out his hand, carefully taking the tea handed over by Wu Xingao.
“Don’t stand, sit down and drink!” Wu Xingao greeted again.
"Yes." Wu Xiong nodded, and then sat down in front of the stone table.
A few birds stood on the branches in the distance, chirping, and their crisp calls echoed in the garden.
Wu Xingao felt a little noisy. He turned his head and looked at the birds standing on the branches and chirping.
A pale golden aura appeared in his eyes, and the next second, the bird on the branch seemed to feel that some terrible creature was staring at it. It was so frightened that it trembled and did not dare to call out again.
The aura that appeared in his eyes dissipated, Wu Xingao turned his head, looked at his trusted servant who was sitting upright, thought for a moment, and asked.
"This time your siege operation failed. Did you see clearly how the masked murderer left?"
Wu Xiong drank up the tea given by the master, and then The tea cup was gently placed on the stone table, with a depressed expression on his face, and he shook his head, "Master, I didn't see clearly how the masked murderer left?"
Wu Xingao hesitated for a moment. Browsing, Wu Xiong quickly explained.
"At that time, the masked murderer created a huge fireball and attacked us. After the fireball exploded, we went to look for his traces, but he had disappeared without a trace."
" Huh..."
A gust of wind suddenly blew up and poured into the pavilion, making the clothes of the two people in the pavilion rustle.
When the sudden wind dissipated, Wu Xingao said, "The masked murderer now has an unknown means of escape, which is a bit troublesome."
"..." Wu Xiong nodded. The masked murderer was very powerful and had unknown means of escape. The combination of the two made it very difficult to deal with him.
"Concerning the matter of the masked murderer, what should we do next? Tell us what you think." Wu Xingao asked.
"Master, with my wisdom, I can't figure out how to deal with that masked murderer at the moment." Wu Xiong said with shame.
Wu Xingao also knew that he was embarrassing Wu Xiong by asking him this question. He thought for a while and said.
“Since the three second-level peak cultivators can’t handle him, then we will increase our manpower... You will go to the leader of the Blood Killing Sect later and tell him that as long as the masked murderer is still alive One day, the favor he owes me will no longer be repaid."
"Yes," Wu Xingao said.
Afterwards, the master and servant chatted for a long time in the pavilion about how to deal with the masked murderer next.
When Wu Xiong got up and left to carry out what Wu Xingao told him, and Wu Xingao was the only one left in the pavilion, a gloomy voice came from the pavilion.
"You have made me lose face twice. How can I relieve my anger without skinning you and cramping your muscles?" When facing the murderer, the masked murderer in another world is currently working hard to improve his cultivation.
…………
The golden sunshine splashed on the earth, and under the blue sky, in a green wilderness, there was a figure wearing camouflage uniforms running quickly.
Lin Li walked all the way and was about to reach his destination. Suddenly, he sensed psychic energy fluctuations in the dense grass in front of him on the right.
"Huh?"
The speed of his feet slowed down, and he looked warily at the dense grass where the psychic fluctuations appeared.
"Wow." The creature hiding in the thick and leafy grass felt that it was close enough, and then kicked off its limbs, quickly jumped out of the grass, and pounced towards the prey with incomparable ferocity.
"Looking for death."
Lin Li looked at the pounced dog beast, then kicked his right foot on the ground, moved his body to the left, and easily dodged the opponent's pounce.
"Roar..."
Seeing that it had not hit its prey, the dog beast kicked off its limbs after landing, quickly changed its direction, and pounced towards Lin Li again.
"Tsk... This reaction speed is quite fast, but it's a pity that your strength is not enough." Lin Li muttered.
This time, he did not dodge significantly, but took a step back sideways. The dog and beast passed in front of him. At this moment, he suddenly raised his right leg and Kick the opponent in the abdomen.
"Ouch...!!!"
Being hit in the soft belly, the dog beast flew backwards, accompanied by a scream of screams.
“Bang.”
It hit the ground hard and rolled around a few times before stopping. The severe pain in its abdomen did not defeat the beast.
It struggled to get up from the ground, trying to attack the prey again, and at this time, a harsh sound sounded.
"Whoops."
The sharp cyan wind blade quickly condensed into shape in Lin Li's hand. As he waved his hand, the cyan wind blade burst out, tearing through the air. There was a harsh whistling sound.
“Chi.”
The dog beast with the first level of peak cultivation had no time to dodge and watched the sharp green wind blade hit his head.
"Bang."
It was split into two, red and white things flowed out of the split head, and the alien beast that was instantly killed by one blow fell to the ground.
Now, when Lin Li is dealing with this kind of peak first-order beast, as long as he can hit the opponent's vital point with one blow, he can basically kill it instantly with one move.
I think back to a few months ago, when I went into the wilderness alone to hunt alien beasts. At that time, it was very difficult to deal with an alien beast with a high level of first-level cultivation.
But now he can actually kill a stronger beast with one move, and he has to sigh that his change is really big enough.
Lin Li looked at the dog beast that was instantly killed by him with one move. He sighed with emotion, then stepped forward and took the prey into the mysterious island.
This killed dog beast can be regarded as a good start for Lin Li after entering the wilderness today.
After reaching the second level of peak cultivation, the difficulty of growing the magical little fruit from the magical tree on the mysterious island has increased again as expected.
In the previous stage, the flesh and blood essence of a first-order alien beast could provide 0.2% of the maturity progress of the magical little fruit. At the current stage, it can only provide 0.1% of the maturity progress. Maturity Progress.
If Lin Li wanted to harvest a ripe magical fruit now, he would need to kill a thousand first-order exotic beasts.
With Lin Li's current level of cultivation, a thousand alien beasts sounds like a lot, but if he really hunts the first-order alien beasts, it will be very easy.
But the premise is that you need to spend a lot of time to hunt down such a number of first-order beasts.
The flesh and blood essence of the second-level alien beasts used to provide 1.5% of the maturity progress, but now it has become 1%.
Hunting a hundred second-level exotic beasts can yield ripe magical little fruits. If you search deep in the wilderness, it is better to find second-level exotic beasts.
Although hunting second-level alien beasts is much more difficult than first-level alien beasts, looking at it all, it takes more time to hunt down one hundred second-level alien beasts than to hunt one thousand first-level alien beasts. Much less.
Lin Li’s current plan is to complete the extermination of the Flame Rats.
He advanced deeper into the wilderness and quickly harvested new ripe magical fruits by hunting a large number of second-level exotic beasts.
"Including the 0.1% maturity progress provided by this dog beast, we are still 97.2% away from harvesting a ripe magical little fruit again."
After Lin Li took the dog beasts into the mysterious island, he calculated in his mind, and then he immediately took steps and ran quickly towards the destination where the flame rats were infested.
…………
There is a small lake with rippling blue waves in the wilderness, covering an area of about one hundred acres.
Lush vegetation grows next to the small lake. If you push aside these lush vegetation, you will find that there are holes hidden in the grass that can fit an entire football.
"Zhizhizhi..."
Listen carefully and you will hear subtle sounds coming from the cave from time to time.
The lush vegetation swayed gently, but they were not moved by the wind.
If you look carefully and look through the gaps between the grass and trees, you will find something crawling out of the hole hidden in it... It's a mouse.
The mice crawling out of the holes in the ground are very large, several times the size of ordinary house mice.
Weak psychic energy fluctuations emanate from the flame rat, which is nearly half a meter long, red in color, and has large front teeth.
This flame rat has a mid-level cultivation level and is not very strong. After it crawled out of the hole, it looked around cautiously at the entrance of the hole. After confirming that there was no danger, it turned its head. He made a few squeaking calls to the hole in the ground.
After a few seconds, a faint sound came from the dark hole. Soon, one after another, flame rat cubs with a body length of more than 20 centimeters crawled out of the hole.
One, two, three, four, five...there are ten flame rat cubs in total.
Although the general strength of flame rats is only from the beginning to the middle of the first level when they reach adulthood, they are not a high threat to the alien hunters who are qualified to enter the wilderness to hunt alien beasts.
However, these flame rats reproduce very quickly. They can give birth six to eight times a year, each time producing six to ten young.
If they are not removed and their number is controlled, once the flame rats multiply to a certain extent, they will gather together to form a terrible rat plague.
Even if the strength of the flame rats is not strong, if thousands of them swarm together and move in the wilderness, not many of the exotic beast hunter teams will be able to escape from the terrible rat plague and ascend to heaven.
The adult flame rat took his ten cubs out for activities. The cubs who came outside the cave for the first time were full of curiosity about everything.
"Squeaks ..." The adult flame rat reminded their cubs to keep them not running too far, so as not to escape the cave in time when they are dangerous.
The cub of the flame rat obviously didn't take the parents' words to heart, crawling around happily, getting further and further away from the hole.
"Ha...a litter of ten is really fertile." A voice appeared from behind the big tree in the distance, and then an orange-red light lit up.
