Chapter 838 838. Polar Night Storm 74
After a rough calculation, there were 2,500 gold-devouring rats that died due to the Xuanbing Grass Water, and 2,300 gold-devouring rats were captured alive. There were many escaped gold-devouring rats. The exact number is unclear, but it is certain There are as many as two to three thousand, maybe even more!

"Lord, something is wrong with these gold-devouring rats. They are not attacking humans, but are coming directly towards the dark prison!"

"They seem to have come with a purpose!"

Lake's words made Suyou directly think of the strange gold-eating rat in the dark prison that was protected by other members of his race!

Su You seemed to have thought of something, and immediately said to Lake: "Don't worry about these gold-eating rats outside. You should take everyone in immediately to help the people inside catch a special gold-eating rat. If you can't find it, If there is only one gold-eating rat, then lock up a whole cage of gold-eating rats alone, and don’t let any of them go!”

Lake didn't ask why. He shouted to the people behind him without hesitation, and then led dozens of people directly into the dark cell.

At the same time, Su You directly used the authority of the lord to issue an emergency announcement. The announcement was mainly aimed at two types of people, those with fighting ability and those without fighting ability.

Those who have no fighting ability should return to their homes immediately. Do not be alone, but in groups of at least three people.

People with fighting ability immediately came to the vicinity of the dark cell, waiting for orders to help clean up the crazy gold-eating rats.

Of course, the tough attitude in Article 2 is limited to the residents of the territory. Since they are people in the territory and the territory is in trouble, they should help. This is also their home.

But if they are combatants who are not residents of the territory, they can come or not. This is not their obligation, but in the end they will be rewarded according to their merits and their help will not be in vain.

As soon as this announcement came out, the crowd on the street immediately divided into two parts under the instructions of the patrol guards. One part had no fighting ability or was unwilling to help clean up the rats, and the other part directly brought their own weapons and hurriedly He rushed towards the dark cell.

Suyou divided the combatants into two parts, one for melee and one for long-range. The long-range can attack the mouse directly without having to bother to catch up, and the efficiency will definitely be faster.

As for melee combat, their mission is not to attack, but to defend.

Su You asked them to surround the dark cell and not let a rat escape from inside, and rats from outside must not enter.

Once discovered, don’t hesitate to kill directly!

Although these people don't know why they do what they do, they don't need to know why, they just need to follow orders.

In such an emergency, no one is stupid enough to waste time.

Therefore, everyone acted in an orderly manner according to the division of labor.

Su You took a serious look and found that there were at least more than 3,000 rats escaping outside, and more than 800 people were fighting at long range here. On average, each person only needed to kill three or four gold-eating rats to kill all the rats here. The rats were cleaned up, but things were far from simple.

Although the gold-eating rat has low health and defense, its biggest advantage is speed.

The extremely fast speed prevents many people's attacks from falling on them. As long as they cannot be hit, that is the best defense.

Among these eight hundred people, there are only more than a hundred who have the ability to kill gold-eating rats. In other words, each person originally only had to kill three or so, but now it has become a hundred people who each have to kill thirty. Only.

Of course, this does not mean that the other 700 people are useless. Although they cannot accurately aim and launch attacks, they are better than more people. As long as the 700 people have a tacit understanding and attack one place in a unified way, they can form a range attack like a dragnet. As a result, all the gold-eating rats within this range will inevitably die. Although the efficiency is slow, it can still achieve the purpose.

In this way, with the efforts of seven hundred people, most of the three thousand gold-eating rats were killed or injured. For a while, the ground was covered with a picture of gray and bright red, which made people feel nauseated.

Thanks to the low temperature now, the smell of the corpse is not unpleasant due to the low temperature freezing after death, and there is almost no smell at all. If the temperature is high, let alone the smell, high-temperature germs are active, and the plague will spread quickly. At that time, the double natural disaster will turn into a three-day disaster.

Although Su You feels that the intensity of the natural disaster has doubled this time, and it is said that the three-day disaster is less severe, this is obviously a four-day disaster!

There is also a scary shadow locked up in the forest!
It’s no wonder that almost no territory survives in the extreme night of winter. The extremely low temperature, powerful enemies born of fear, and rats that eat supplies... If not prepared in advance, even a large territory will not be able to escape destruction.

"Go and call Meike over." Su You asked a random person to pass on the message.

Although the probability of hypothermic plague is low, it is not a problem for so many corpses to be left like this.

Normally, when encountering a rat infestation, all the rats are either killed and buried or burned.

But a pit must be dug in the ground, and it must be a deep pit, otherwise there will be trouble later. Not only will the plague continue to spread, but the land will also be contaminated.

If conditions permit, the latter is definitely better. High temperature can destroy many things, which can basically eliminate future troubles.

"Lord, are you looking for me to burn these rats?" Mike walked over in a hurry, already guessing Su You's purpose in looking for him.

"Yes, solve it as soon as possible." Although asking a senior magician to burn the corpse is a bit of a fuss, for the sake of safety, this mouse is not an ordinary mouse, and Su You is also afraid that ordinary flames cannot completely eliminate the germs.

In view of the fact that burning a little bit is too troublesome and wastes magic, Su You asked people to wear protective belts and gloves and gather all the gold-eating rats together.

Ten minutes later, a 'mountain of rat corpses' appeared in front of Su You and Mei Ke.

Of course, in addition to the bodies of the gold-eating rats, there are also the gloves they used to clean the rats, clothes stained by the gold-eating rats, etc. These may be contaminated with germs. Su You is not lacking in these things, naturally. Burned all at once.

Suyou: "Let's start."

After receiving the order, Meck immediately took out his staff. Without the time to chant, several fireballs fell on the corpses of these gold-eating rats.

When the flames were burning, Su You turned her head and glanced at him: "Are you stronger again?"

Although Meck was already very strong before, he still needed to chant to use magic, even the most basic fireball technique, but the time was very short, only a few tenths of a second, which was almost negligible.

But Su You could clearly discover just now that when Meck used the fireball technique, it had already reached instantaneous effect.

It is truly instantaneous, without any chanting.

Meck nodded and admitted with a calm face.
