Chapter 844: Rat Infestation

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Once Xiao Yunlong finished, another person came in in haste and said, “Chief, there’s a situation!”

Xiao Licheng walked over with a solemn look while holding a file. He paused briefly when he saw Xiao Yunlong, then kept moving toward Wu Chengyue.

“Chief Wu, are you here because of those mutated rats too? I heard that there’s a giant population of those rats. We can’t get a specific number yet. Also, they eat zombies! They eat everything, including metal, buildings… literally everything,” Xiao Licheng handed the file directly to Wu Chengyue.

“Where are they? Have you sent someone to observe the area yet?” Hearing that those rats even ate zombies, Wu Chengyue immediately thought of All Beings Base. If those rats visited that base, the zombies there would become rat food, wouldn’t they?

He knew that rats were omnivores, and that they needed to grind their teeth. After mutation, their teeth had become much stronger than before. Those mutated rats weren’t as slow as ordinary zombies. On the contrary, they were swift.

“In the animal park in Fuyang District. This time, they seemed to have been released suddenly. More and more rats had been gushing out of the underground nest. By now, everything on that around in that area has been eaten up,” said Xiao Licheng.

At that time, a lot of mutated animals had been running desperately in the animal park in Duyang District. The large ones, small ones, higher-leveled ones and lower-leveled ones… all animals had been running in different directions, stirring up clouds of sands and dust and sending grass and broken branches up into the sky.

Some mutated birds flew into the park from time to time, then soon come back out, claws holding one or two large, struggling, black rats.

In that area where Lin Qiao saved the little tiger from was a huge hole, looking like a black mouth. At the time, waves of black rats with long hair had been surging out of that hole. The smaller ones among them were even larger than cats, and the largest ones were as big as pigs.

Those rats had long and thick black hair. Their eyes were wide opened, filled with ferocity. Long and sharp teeth stuck out of their mouths. With those teeth, they chewed everything that was in their way.

Within the area miles in radius around the hole, nothing was left except barren earth. All the plants were gone, and only the chewed ground was seen.

Squeak!

Squeak!

Two pig-sized rats were standing by the hole on their feet with their forelimbs shrunk. They were squeaking all the time, seemingly directing the rat crowd.

At first glance, one could see nothing more than the huge group of rats running out of the hole.

Not far away, in the Southwest, was a similar hole; the same scene could be seen over there. Endless rats had been coming out of that hole as well. In fact, five or six holes like that could be found near that area.

A series of cracking noise was heard as those rats were chewing a large tree, which would take three people to put their arms around its trunk. Soon, the tree fell to the ground. Countless rats rushed up to eat the branches and leaves.

The cracking noises and squeaks of rats were heard from everywhere.

From time to time, raging roars could be heard as well.

A gigantic lion didn’t manage to escape those rats. The rats climbed onto its body and tore its skin into pieces with their teeth and claws.

“Roar…” The lion struggled in pain. But, those rats didn’t fall from its body as they clung tightly on the lion. Meanwhile, more and more rats had been climbing up to the lion.

Within a short span of time, the lion was pressed to the ground by over a thousand rats. Two minutes later, those rats left. Only a large puddle of blood was seen on the ground, even without a piece of bone!

Before long, the animal park, which had almost become like a virgin forest, was turned into a barren land by those rats.

More and more rats were coming out of those holes. The first batch of rats had already flattened the whole area. Apart from animals and plants, those rats also attacked the slow-moving zombies. The zombies had rotten bodies, yet those rats still had a great appetite for them.

“Roar…” A few miles away from those rats, a wind-powered zombie had been leaping swiftly from trees to trees, moving toward All Being Base.

A couple of hours later, he finally arrived at the outer circle of All Beings Base. He flew across the zombie wall and headed toward the hotel building where the zombies lived.

The other zombies didn’t try to stop him, meaning that he was a member of the base.

In the hotel, he quickly found Xie Dong’s office.

“Roar…” ‘Boss! Boss!’

That level-four zombie was one of five that Lin Qiao had put under Xie Dong’s command.

“What? Calm down,” Seeing the zombie’s anxious face, Xie Dong responded expressionlessly.

“Roar! Roar!” ‘Rats! Rats! Rats!’

The wind-powered zombie stood before Xie Dong’s desk fretfully. Those rats had given him a very strong sense of crisis. Even though he was already back in the base, the lingering fear was still affecting him.

“What rats? Talk properly,” Xie Dong looked at him with a slight frown.

The zombies under his command had all accepted Lin Qiao’s virus. Therefore, they were now much smarter than before, and were able to communicate smoothly with the others. But right now, that wind-powered zombie seemed to have a problem organizing his language, and Xie Dong didn’t know why.

“Roar… Roarrrrr…” ‘Rats! A lot of them! A lot lot!’

The wind-powered zombie roared at Xie Dong, and seemed to have calmed down a little. While roaring, he put both hands before his chest to show Xie Dong how large those rats were.

“Roar… roar…” ‘This big! This big!’

He showed Xie Dong the different sizes of those rats.

Xie Dong spent a short while thinking, and understood what that zombie was trying to say.

The zombie had seen a lot of mutated rats. Judging by his nervous look, he should have seen a lot of rats, which were especially dangerous.

But, merely mutated rats shouldn’t have made the zombie so nervous.

Xie Dong couldn’t picture the scene that the zombie was trying to describe. He guessed that there was some particular factor that made the zombie so nervous.

He stood up, as he decided to go and see for himself.

“Let’s go. Take me there!” said Xie Dong to the wind-powered zombie.

This time, the zombie quickly shook his head and responded with a roar. ‘No! No! No! They would eat us!’
