Chapter 278 A great victory

Generally speaking, human armies will collapse after casualties reach a certain proportion.

But for extremely hungry rats, this ratio is obviously higher.

When more than half of the rats were killed or injured, the first escaped rat appeared among them - the rat that had snatched the corpse of its companion and was barely full.

Then the number of rats dropped further, and a few more began to flee, this time the ones around the golem.

Even if their eyes were red with rage, they would cling to the demon statue one by one and bite everywhere, but they could only bite hard rocks.

The golem didn't care much about the rats on his body, he only stepped on them with his feet and bent down to smash them.

However, the two floating cannons will help him clean it up biubiu~.

Rhodes looked uncomfortable for a while, then asked Lightning: "Can you fetch me a few buckets of water?"

"I'll go right away!" Lei Ning was very excited to watch the war between insects and rats, but when he heard Rhodes' request, he immediately went to do it.

Mira asked him curiously what he was going to do.

Rhodes said: "Add some disinfectant to disinfect the golem, otherwise you will always feel a little nauseous."

"Won't it hurt?"

"No, actually you can't hurt it with boiling water. It just feels too cruel."

"Yes, and it's hard to find such a big pot if you use boiling water."

"Uh-huh?"

Rhodes was stunned for a moment. Why did he need the big pot? Did he put it in the pot and cook it? Did she misunderstand it or did it on purpose?

The unscrupulous summoner made a hasty disinfection plan and fell into deep thought.

The two sides fought fiercely for a while, and the rats began to flee in large numbers.

A few of the worms were dragged away by the escaping rats, while most of them were surrounding and suppressing the remaining rats.

Rhodes gave an order to the three Void Brood Insects: "Catch up, hang behind them, and kill as many as you can."

Are you stupid? Our barracks will chase you.

The three nest worms left the village entrance and chased the retreating group of rats. Worms were still being produced on their backs during the chase.

The newly born worms jumped forward and chased, their speed was even faster than the nest worms.

Jasper asked: "Mr. Rhodes, do we want to catch up? Take this opportunity to kill them thoroughly..."

Rhodes shook his head: "Just leave it to me to hunt down the rats. You have more important things to do."

"What is it? We will definitely do it well." Jasper was very confident. Everyone's enthusiasm was unprecedentedly high. He felt that everything could be done well now.

"After the remaining rats are dealt with, the rat corpses around the village need to be disposed of as soon as possible, otherwise they will easily cause epidemics."

Rhodes said, "Remember to take precautions when dealing with rats. There may be problems with the water source in the village. Remember to remind everyone to boil it before drinking."

Jasper glanced at the few buckets beside Rhodes, which were brought by Lightning at his request.

Mr. Rhodes was so considerate! He even went out of his way to test the water quality for them in advance!

"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away!" Jasper left gratefully.

"Did he misunderstand something?"

"It's possible, but it's probably because you did so well, right?" Mira has stopped throwing grenades and has been staying by Rhodes' side.

"I will be very proud of you for praising me so much. Well, shall I give you a reward?"

"No." Mira covered his mouth, which was close to him. There were so many people watching here.

The final encirclement and suppression work continued for nearly half an hour. The worms chased the last few escaping rats and ran out and disappeared into the darkness. The villagers cheered. Although they could not get rid of all the rats tonight, they had already.

A considerable part has been solved.

And with so many bugs around, it's only a matter of time before we get rid of the remaining rats.

It's only June now, so it's not too late to plant some summer corn, sorghum, soybeans, and some late rice. As long as you work harder in the future, your future life will hardly be affected.

With only a commission fee of 200,000 J, I am so lucky to be able to hire such a powerful magician!

The villagers began to get busy. They used shovels, dustpans and other tools to collect the rat corpses and pile them into hills.

Afterwards, they checked the wind direction, built a simple incinerator at the downdraft of the village, found firewood and charcoal, and burned all the rat corpses.

The ashes burned today will become high-quality fertilizer and be spread on farmland.

Even the small black particles left by these rats will be collected by the villagers and turned into fertilizer.

It was already dark at night, but outside the village of Lavender, the lights were brightly lit, and there was a lively scene of labor.

And Rhodes was busy pouring disinfectant on the golem.

He brought the disinfectant himself and could use it by mixing it with water. The goal of this mission was to eliminate rats, so Rhodes was naturally prepared.

The golem stood there innocently and let him splash it casually, even squatting down, standing up, and even lying down in cooperation.

Mira looked at the clumsy movements of this big guy and felt a little cute inexplicably.

Jasper was busy organizing people to do the work, and would do it himself when necessary, but he still took time out of his busy schedule to come to Rhodes: "Thank you both for your help!"

"It's a mission, you're welcome." Rhodes pointed to the collapsed fence and potholed road, "We will find a way to repair these tomorrow."

The culprit who damaged the road is now a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention before."

"Please don't worry about it! We can fix these soon." How could Jasper care about such a trivial matter? He knew very well the quality of the broken fence in their village.

The same goes for the road surface, which is just a few potholes that can be filled in later. The most important thing is to solve the rat problem.

Rhodes wanted to say something, but his face became paler and paler.

The golem that was squatting on the ground suddenly disappeared, and the three nest insects that were chasing the group of rats also suddenly disappeared.

The worms persisted for a while, and finally disappeared one after another.

Mira saw that Rhodes was not in good condition and immediately stopped him.

"Mr. Rhodes?" Jasper was startled.

"I'm fine. It's just that my magic power has almost reached its limit and I need to take a rest."

"Please come to my house, the room is ready."

Rhode's arm was on Mira's shoulder, and Mira's right hand was around Rhode's waist. Mira supported Rhode and walked towards the village chief's house.

But before she had gone far, she suddenly had a good idea. She stooped slightly, hooked her left hand around the crook of Rhode's leg, and hugged him directly.

Rhodes didn't even react: "Hey~ Mira?"

Mira had a cute smile on her face: "It's more convenient to go this way."

Rhodes couldn't laugh or cry: "But it's very strange."

"What's weird? That's how you hugged me the day I fell into the water." Mira even weighed Rhodes and adjusted his position, and said with a smile, "Isn't this very interesting?"

"..." Rhodes hugged Mira's neck and pressed his face against her hair, "It seems so."

Mira could feel his breathing and threatened slightly: "If you move around, I will throw you away."
