Chapter 878: The Motorcade In Distress

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The mushroom reached out its roots, wrapping up a level-three rat and happily sucking its blood. Meanwhile, Lin Qiao finished the entire rat, leaving the internal organs and the rat skin on the ground, then turned and hopped onto a tall tree.

She climbed to the top of the tree and looked at the rat group, slightly narrowing her eyes as she saw some big rats among the group that possessed stronger energy. Those seemed to be higher-leveled rats. The other side of the dense forest had been entirely chewed up by these rats.

Black rats were seen everywhere.

One half of the area was filled with tall and thriving trees, while the other side had become a wasteland, occupied by countless black rats.

Lin Qiao jumped off the tree and started moving around the rat group while observing. Since she was already there, she decided to observe those rats closely.

Bowwow, Black, and the mushroom all had a full meal. After that, they followed Lin Qiao in making a circle around the rat group. Of course, this huge group of destructive rats had attracted quite some predators.

Fierce birds, snakes, cats and dogs, they were all good at hunting rats. So, Lin Qiao witnessed predation from time to time as well. She saw a lot of mutated cats and rats, and some fierce birds like eagles hovering in the sky. Every now and then, those birds swooped down and each brought a big rat up to the sky.

Not far away before Lin Qiao, a group of people had been chased by rats.

Bang! Bang! Bang! About ten off-road cars scattered around a few trucks. The people in the cars had been firing their weapons at the huge group of rats that was chasing tightly behind them.

The people in the modified trucks were commoners, while some had superpowers among the ones in those off-road cars. However, most of them were commoners who were good at fighting.

They needed to kill the zombies before them and the rats behind them. With slight carelessness, they could let zombies pounce on their cars and hurt them.

Lin Qiao sensed their scents from adistance. Based on the direction that they were moving in, she guessed they were from Hidden Cloud City Base or Earth Dragon Base.

“I told you not to go this way! You wouldn’t listen! Now what? We have rats behind us, and they’ll attack other mutated beasts!” In an off-road car, a man glared at the others and said grumpily.

The others had no spare attention for him. They had their upper bodies stuck out of the windows or the sunroof to attack the rats behind.

Those rats were as big as cats, and some were even bigger. They were swift and nimble; a rat could cover a few meters with one single leap.

Right at that moment, a pig-sized rat that weighed at least a hundred and fifty kilograms suddenly rushed at the motorcade and leaped high, accurately landing on a car on the side.

Bang!

“Squak!” The giant rat had shiny black fur and a long and thick tail. It fell on the car, flattening half of the car.

“Ah…” A man reached his upper body out of the sunroof to attack the rat, but the rat bit his head and dragged him directly out of the car.

Boom! As half of the car was flattened, the driver lost control of the steering wheel. Consequently, the car bumped into a cement pillar nearby and turned upside down.

“Squak!” the rat nimbly leaped off the car once the car turned over.

“Eh… eh-hem…” The people in the car were still alive, but disabled.

Soon, the rat swung its claw and easily cut a car door opne. Then, it bit the doorknob and pulled it outward, creating a hole in the door. The people in the car realized that they would die sooner than they thought.

“Ah…” The rat reached its mouth into the car, clenched one of those people with its teeth, and dragged him out of the car.

That man was covered in blood, and his bones and internal organs were all severely damaged. All he could do was let out shrill screams.

The other rats came over at that time, crawled into the car through the hole or the windows, and started biting the people in the car. The people in the other cars didn’t turn their cars back to save those people. Under the current circumstances, saving their own lives was already not easy.

The people who weren’t capable of fighting were hiding in the trucks. Some armed men were standing on top of the trucks, shooting the rats that had approached them.

“Damn you! Die!” A man in an off-road car gave a raging roar and threw out a grenade at the pig-sized rat.

Boom!

“Squak!” The rat didn’t manage to dodge in time and ended up being sent flying to the side. However, it bounced back up once it landed on the ground and fiercely charged at the man who threw out the grenade.

“The grenade didn’t hurt it! It’s coming over!” Seeing the rat spring back up right after the explosion and rush toward his car, the man screamed in a panic.

But at that very moment, the zombies before them suddenly disappeared, and the rats behind them stopped moving, before standing up and sniffing at the air.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Nevertheless, those people didn’t stop shooting. As a result, quite some of the motionless rats were killed by the bullets.

“Squak!” The largest rat abruptly screeched before turning and running away. Hearing that rat, all the other rats quickly turned and ran.

“They… they fell back! What happened?”

“They gave up?”

The people on the vehicles were first stunned, then their heart went wild with joy. They all gasped with relief.

“Good… good… They left! Damn! I thought I’d die here!”

“F*ck! Those huge rats were horrible!”

About three-hundred meters away from the motorcade, Lin Qiao stood on a tree expressionlessly. She had restrained her vibe, yet she couldn’t cover her scent. As she approached the motorcade, her scent scared those rats and the surrounding zombies away. Some zombies didn’t smell her, but sensed the pressure coming from her.

Of course, humans couldn’t sense that.

Lin Qiao didn’t plan to meet those people, so she turned and headed the other way. While leaving, she didn’t notice that a man in the motorcade was looking where she was with confusion. He seemed to have sensed something, but was not sure about it.

He glanced at the group of rats that was moving away, then at where Lin Qiao was, and couldn’t help but say to the others, “I think, something even more dangerous is near us!”

“What have you found?” On hearing that, the others immediately turned to her nervously.

“It’s already gone…” The man shook his head, but didn’t relax his tightened face.
