Chapter 124 Blood-marked Giant Demon Rat
"Drip drip ...
There were rumblings of thunder in the night sky over the wilderness, and a light rain quickly fell. The subtle sound of rain became particularly clear in the thick night.
"Boom~!"
The rumbling of spring thunder brings vitality to the earth and also heralds the arrival of a new season.
Lightning flashed like sharp swords, piercing through the dark sky, and thunder roared loudly, as if the whole earth was shaking.
In the forest, in a nest buried deep underground, a predator was awakened by the sound of thunder and rain, and its scarlet eyes suddenly opened in the nest.
The first thing that popped out was its head. Its huge lantern eyes scanned the surroundings, and only after confirming that there were no enemies outside the cave did it completely come out of the cave.
The neck and head of this monster cannot be distinguished, but the shape of a giant rat is obvious. Its body is covered with extremely hideous blood veins, twisted and densely packed, making this giant rat as big as a small truck even more terrifying.
If Jiang Shang were here at this moment, he would definitely be able to tell it at a glance.
This guy is actually the blood-marked giant demon rat described in high school textbooks! !
And crawling out from behind the blood-patterned giant demon rat were dozens of giant-eyed fishy rats.
They are densely packed in a row.
"Cuckoo!!"
The Blood-Marked Giant Rat's nose kept sniffing around, trying to identify prey from the remaining scent on the grass.
Prepare to find an unlucky guy among the many passing creatures as your dinner for today.
Finally, it discovered the scent of its prey from a trace. It was a place that the rain had not had time to cover. There was a fruit core left after the food was eaten, and it was entangled with the fragrance of the woman's wrist.
After identifying the direction, it suddenly rushed out with its body as big as a truck and ran towards the distant place where the smell was.
Dozens of giant-eyed fishy rats followed its steps and ran together.
That was where Jiang Shang and his friends camped.
………………
Above the camp, on a tree branch covered by leaves, Jiang Shang's body emitted a faint golden light that was invisible to ordinary people, and it flickered continuously with his breathing.
In the spiritual universe, the stars of Yangming Suzaku became more and more real, and the red-gold light continued to feed back after the light stardust was exhausted.
Suddenly, Jiang Shang opened his eyes.
He felt dozens of energy fluctuations in his detection range. Judging from the intensity of the energy fluctuations, there seemed to be a general-level monster and dozens of slave-level monsters.
“Whoosh~~”
A charming light broke through the rain curtain and slowly rose into the sky.
Meng Ziyi, who was patrolling the periphery, felt the fluctuation of the shadow, and when he looked up, he saw the light emitted by Jiang Shang.
His expression straightened up, knowing that Jiang Shang had discovered a demon.
He immediately turned into a shadow and rushed towards the camp.
In the camp, after Jiang Shang launched the light, he stood by the campfire and waited quietly.
Guangyao was the contact method he and Meng Ziyi agreed upon in advance. As long as Guangyao took off, it meant that a demon was approaching the camp, so they should return quickly.
Soon, a shadow quickly approached the camp within Jiang Shang's perception range, and then turned into a human figure and walked out.
"What type of monster is it? What level is it?" Meng Ziyi asked straight to the point as soon as he saw Jiang Shang.
"I can't detect the type, but the level should be a general, and a bunch of slave-level monsters." Jiang Shang said.
"Huh~, I thought there were commander-level demons coming." Meng Ziyi let out a long sigh and said, "A mere general demon is not enough. I can handle it alone. And you too, you are a high-level magician, don't panic if you encounter a general demon."
Jiang Shang glanced at him with his silver eyes and said, "We need to make a quick decision and get rid of them from a distance. This spring rain will wake up many demons from their slumber. If we get too close and the smell of blood spreads, we won't be able to sleep well in the second half of the night."
Seeing that Jiang Shang's words were well-reasoned, Meng Ziyi didn't know what to say, but his face darkened. "Then tell me the location of the demons, and I will get rid of them immediately."
"Southeast, about 300 meters away, they are coming towards us."
After Meng Ziyi glanced at Jiang Shang, he turned into a black shadow and flew away in the gloomy night.
"Click~!!"
The light brought by the lightning instantly illuminated Jiang Shang's strange expression.
"This guy just wanted to deal with it alone, right?"
“Although I can sense that this guy is a high-level mage, I don’t know which system he has reached. I can only smell a cold corpse odor from his body.
Could it be the Undead type? "
Thinking of this, Jiang Shang took a step and followed.
Regardless of whether we need to take action or not, we still have to add a higher level of insurance to this operation.
…………
The shadows leaped rapidly in the woods, moving continuously in the direction pointed by Jiang Shang.
Soon they saw the monsters that Jiang Shang had mentioned, a blood-marked giant demon rat and more than thirty giant-eyed fishy rats.
"It turns out to be a sewer bug like the Blood-Veined Giant Demon Rat!" Meng Ziyi snorted coldly, then walked out of the shadows and came to them openly.
In his opinion, a mere general-level demon can be destroyed with a single move, so there is no need to hide.
When the blood-marked giant demon rat saw that food was delivered to its mouth,
God have mercy on me. I have been chewing on grass roots and tree bark for several months, and today I can actually taste living meat!
Immediately, his eyes lit up red, and he swung his huge body, and the whole rat rushed towards Meng Ziyi like a speeding truck.
"Ice Man!"
As his voice sounded, the falling rain gradually condensed, and white crystal snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
White frost quickly covered the water marks on the ground, turning the ground in front of him into an icy white color, and the cold air filled the feet of the rats.
The blood-veined giant rat looked at the ice under its feet, its eyes full of mockery, and with just a slight exertion of force from its limbs, it shattered the cold air that was wrapped around it.
Just as the Blood-Marked Giant Demon Rat was about to continue moving forward, it heard the cries of the Giant-Eyed Fishy Rat behind it.
"Cuckoo!!!!"
The Blood-Patterned Giant Demon Rat turned around and saw that his little brother's limbs were all frozen to the ground, and the frost was still spreading on them.
The frost first froze the flesh and skin, then the blood and bone marrow. Soon, the only parts of the giant-eyed rats that could move were their ridiculously long necks and heads.
The rest of the body turned into ice sculptures, and the remaining head was slowly covered by frost, as if counting down to death.
Only a few that ran fast and jumped out of the coverage when the ice vines came were able to escape.
Meng Ziyi sneered when he saw the miserable state of the demon.
He liked rainy weather the most. With the help of rain, the ice vines took effect nearly two seconds faster than usual, and it was effortless to freeze those bastards.
He then focused all his attention on the blood-marked giant rat in front of him, preparing to use intermediate-level magic to end its life.
As for the remaining giant-eyed rats, leave them to the people coming from behind. His shadow has already captured their figures.
"Ice lock!"
