Shan Hai Jing: Evolution from Mantis

"A rat tide?" Su Chen was secretly shocked when he saw this scene. In fact, when he killed sawtooth rats before, he guessed that there would be a lot of sawtooth rats in the sewer, but he never expected so many. They were so dense and dense, like a torrent, at least tens of thousands of them. Fortunately, it was at night. If it was in broad daylight, it would probably scare people to death. But the most important thing is, why are there so many sawtooth rats coming out? "What happened?" Su Chen murmured. He had only seen a few sawtooth rats crawling out of the sewer before. The video was not long and ended after the rat tide went away. The chat group was suddenly annoyed. Zhuroulin: "Fuck, so many sawtooth rats?"

Qin Gongzi: "How terrifying, there are too many, right? You're lucky you weren't discovered, otherwise you'd be dead."

Pangolin: "What's going on? Why are there so many sawtooth rats suddenly?"

Goubuli: "I don't know, anyway, I'm lucky I ran fast. I plan to post the video on the forum, and then I'll tag the official to see what's going on."

Zhuroulin: "Fuck, what you said already made me a little excited. Now looking at the situation, I always feel that the future will become more and more dangerous. No, I have to work hard to become stronger."

Zhuroulin: "@Qing, big brother, let's kill the beast together, take me with you."

Qing: "Ahem, let's talk about it another day, let's talk about it another day."

Su Chen touched his nose, exited the chat group, took a deep breath, clicked on the bounty hunter app, and entered the reconnaissance section.

The radar started and the reconnaissance began immediately.

The next moment, his pupils contracted.

A white line appeared on the radar.

"Is this... a beast?"

"There are too many of them, right?"

A beast in the reconnaissance section is basically a dot, and now, these dots are connected into a line, like holding paint and constantly painting on an area.

Su Chen instantly thought of the sawtooth rats seen in the video.

"Is it coming to me?"

"Or have all the sawtooth rats in the city left the sewer?"

Su Chen guessed, although he was a little unclear about the purpose of these sawtooth rats, but inexplicably, he was a little excited.

After all, he was lacking evolution points.

Thinking of this, Su Chen looked at the screen of his mobile phone, confirmed the location, and immediately ran in the direction of the beast. On the way, a whirlwind wrapped around his body, causing his figure to disappear directly into the night.

At full speed, Su Chen followed the guidance of the radar and soon left the city center and approached the suburbs.

There are many mountains here, and there are lush forests everywhere.

He was getting closer and closer to the location of the beast on the radar.

But Su Chen was also confused.

"These white dots should be sawtooth rats, they are constantly moving, and it looks like... they are looking for something?"

At this time, the phone vibrated.

Tang Wei sent a message.

Tang Wei: "???"

Tang Wei: "What kind of secret realm did you enter? How come even the monsters that control the power of the entire secret realm have come out?"

Su Chen had sent a message to Tang Wei before, introducing some information about Wang Li, and that's why Tang Wei's message revealed a sense of shock.

Su Chen was about to reply, but after thinking about it, he called directly.

The call was quickly connected.

Before Su Chen had time to speak, Tang Wei asked in confusion. "What's going on over there? Why does it seem like there's a sound of wind blowing?"

"Uh, I used some power and am moving at high speed."

Su Chen explained casually and asked. "I want to know if there is a way to get rid of the monsters in such a secret realm?"

"No."

Tang Wei gave a straightforward answer. "If I'm not mistaken, the monster you're talking about is not an ordinary monster, but a divine evil."

"Divine evil?"

The unfamiliar word made Su Chen look confused.

Tang Wei explained. "The so-called divine evil is a very rare monster found by some of our players in the game. This kind of monster is a monster that has stolen or integrated some of the power of the gods, but is completely eroded by the power and has no thoughts of its own."

"The power of this monster is terrifying. At least no player can deal with it at present, not to mention that the monster you mentioned also controls the secret realm."

"Such a monster is not something you can deal with at all.

I suggest you give up that secret realm, otherwise I can be sure that you will die every time you go in. "

Hearing this, Su Chen's mouth twitched.

I know it without your confirmation.

He still asked unwillingly. "Is there no other way?"

"Yes."

Su Chen was refreshed. "What way?"

Tang Wei said with a smile. "Find something that the gods are interested in and throw it in, and you can lead the gods in. When the gods come, a mere evil god will naturally be easily solved."

Su Chen: "You might as well not tell me this method."

Tang Wei smiled. "I can only say that you are unlucky. Such a thing was born in the secret realm you encountered. Anyway, change the secret realm."

Su Chen looked helpless. "It's not as easy as you say. The secret realm is not so easy to find."

"Hehe, then do you want to join the official? "Tang Wei tempted. "The official has a lot of secret places in their hands. As long as you join, you can enter these secret places. How about it?"

"Forget it, I'm not interested."

Su Chen rolled his eyes and refused without hesitation.

This game is not a real game. Everything in it is non-renewable. Even if the official has a lot of secret places in their hands, the good things in them may have been taken away long ago.

Without getting a solution, Su Chen did not continue to dwell on this issue, but asked another question.

"Have you received any news about the rat tide?"

"Rat tide?"

Tang Wei was surprised and asked. "You are not chasing the rat tide now, are you?"

"I haven't seen those beasts yet, but if nothing unexpected happens, yes, you are an official member, do you have any news?"

"No. "

Tang Wei shook her head and said. "In fact, the existence of sawtooth rats has always been known to the authorities, but they cannot be cleaned up for some reasons. In addition, sawtooth rats used to hide in the sewers and rarely go out in large numbers, so they have been left there. This is the first time they have walked out of the sewers in large numbers."

"But the authorities have already started investigating. According to preliminary judgment, they seem to be looking for something. It is speculated that it is related to the Beast Mother Sect."

"Beast Mother Sect?"

"Yes, I told you before that this sect believes in the Mother of All Beasts and has always liked to experiment with and deal with ferocious beasts. This time, I am afraid it is related to them. Maybe the purpose is Lingxu."

Hearing this, Su Chen nodded thoughtfully. "Is that so, but... you officials are really bold. There are so many sawtooth rats, but you haven't dealt with them. Aren't you afraid of something happening?"

"I am afraid, but what can I do? "

Tang Wei said faintly. "You don't think that only our Jiangcheng sewers have a large number of sawtooth rats in the country, do you?"

"Uh, you mean..."

A terrifying guess emerged in Su Chen's mind, and he swallowed his saliva.

Tang Wei's sigh came from the phone. "Yes, basically all cities in the country have a large number of sawtooth rats. It can even be said that it is the same not only in the country, but also in the world."

"And these sawtooth rats are basically hidden in every corner of the city. It is very difficult to clean them up on a large scale at one time, and it may even cause panic and riots among the people."

"So all along, the official has been cleaning up on a small scale, but due to a lack of manpower, it can't keep up with the number of sawtooth rats born."

"If you want to clean up the sawtooth rats on a large scale, you can only wait until the day when the Shanhaijing is exposed. "

Hearing this, Su Chen suddenly realized.

That's right.

If it's just one city, it's easy to clean it up with the official ability.

But if it's nationwide...

It's really hard to deal with.

After all, this is not an ordinary rat, but a ferocious beast.

Even if it's just a level one ferocious beast, it can hurt people.

But Su Chen thought of another thing, raised his mouth and asked with a smile. "Then if I go to deal with the sawtooth rats that are out now, does it count as carrying out the mission?"

"Hehe, yes, of course."

Tang Wei chuckled. "I'm just about to send it to you, take a look for yourself."

"Okay, send it quickly, I'm almost there. "

Su Chen nodded and hung up the phone.

Not long after, the phone vibrated, and Tang Wei sent a document.

Su Chen clicked it, and the task details appeared inside.

[1: Due to unknown reasons, Jiangcheng is infested with rats. Please find and eliminate the rats before causing large-scale panic.]

[Task requirements: Find the rats and eliminate the sawtooth rats.]

[Task rewards: 100 points to 1,000 points.]

[2: Find the reason why the rats are out.]

[Task requirements: If possible,

Find out the reason. In dangerous situations, you can give up the mission and save your life. 】

【Task reward: 100~1000 points. 】

Two more missions, the same as before.

In terms of reward points alone, it is much more than the previous two missions, which fluctuate between 100 and 1000.

After one night, if you are lucky and encounter more rats, you may easily earn a few hundred points.

It’s just that the second mission is a bit more troublesome.

"Find out the reason..."

Su Chen's mouth twitched slightly. "I'm afraid I have to go to the sewer to find out clearly."

Shaking his head, Su Chen told Tang Wei that he took the mission, then put away his phone and went forward at full speed.

A gust of wind swept by, and Su Chen's figure quickly disappeared.

A moment later, he came to the foot of a mountain in the suburbs.

Under the night, the mountains are lush, making the light here much dimmer than other places.

After Su Chen arrived here, he stopped running and moved forward slowly and carefully.

After a while, Su Chen stopped, looked at the scene in front of him, and took a deep breath.

Sawtooth rats, all of them!

In the dark night, dense red eyes blinked almost everywhere, covering the entire mountain, which made people's scalps numb.

At this moment, these sawtooth rats were looking for something in the mountain, just as he had guessed before.

Su Chen secretly observed, and after a moment, he found that these sawtooth rats seemed to be about to leave. He no longer hesitated, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and the sword instantly appeared in his right hand.

With a whoosh, he chopped out a knife, and a slash suddenly rose from the ground and chopped away.

The sound of puffing kept ringing.

Under one knife, dozens of sawtooth rats were directly chopped off.

Such a huge movement immediately attracted the attention of other sawtooth rats that were about to leave.

They all turned their heads and stared at Su Chen with scarlet eyes, with malice in their eyes.

The next moment, screams rang out, and a dense tide of rats swarmed in like a black tide!
