Fortunately, the size of the mutated rat swarm is not large enough, otherwise it may form a supernatural "brood will", evolve an intelligence level comparable to that of humans, and cause a catastrophe that threatens the survival of all mankind!
As standard swarm creatures, mutant rat swarms have two special abilities.
One is "disturbing the mind".
Any creature that is close to the mutated rat swarm will be mentally disturbed by the squeaking screams it makes, causing it to become restless. If the will is not strong enough, it will lose concentration, which is especially troublesome for the caster - once it loses concentration, it will be difficult to cast the spell.
The ceremony will be interrupted!
The second characteristic of swarm creatures is that they have no fixed form and no vital points. They are not subject to flanking attacks, critical hits and sneak attacks. Any single attack weapon can only kill one individual in the swarm and has no effect on the swarm as a whole.
hinder.
Seeing the swarm of rats coming in like a tide, Gao Fei immediately thought of the animal skeletons he had seen on the street before. Apparently, these crazy mutant rats had eaten all the flesh and blood, leaving only pale skeletons to show to outsiders.
Issue a silent warning.
Ma Tao also calmed down at this time, silently extracted an astrolabe energy, awakened the sub-professional "Timothy Priest", squeezed past Qi Tian with a dark face, put away his pistol, held the magic crystal shotgun instead, and fired at his feet
The swarm of rats spread out like a carpet and fired two shots in succession.
Two gunshots rang out, causing blood and flesh to fly everywhere in the alley, and gunpowder smoke filled the air.
The rats were attacked head-on, turned around and fled, screaming, like a retreating black tide.
Just as a single attack has little effect on swarm creatures, large-scale destructive magic and weapons can cause fatal damage to multiple vulnerable individuals in the swarm at the same time. This is reflected in macro data, that is, a group attack can cause double damage to swarm creatures.
.
"Holy crap! You're smart, Brother Tao! Why didn't I think of choosing a shotgun back then?" Qi Tian looked at the thick-barreled shotgun in Ma Tao's hand, his eyes full of envy.
It can only be said that it was bad luck. Gao Fei and his team encountered the most difficult swarm of creatures during their first mission.
Except for Ma Tao's shotgun, the weapons equipped by other team members, including pistols, electric batons and cold weapons, are not suitable for use against the mutant rats.
More mutated rats are gathering from both sides of the alley, and it's obvious that a shotgun alone can't stop them.
Once they are rushed to their feet by the mutant rats, crawling on their bodies and gnawing at them crazily, and cannot hold on for two minutes, everyone will end up like that yak, being chewed alive into skeletons!
Gao Fei quickly looked around and observed the terrain in the alley. He felt confident and turned back to his companions:
"Brother Daqing, protect Jiajia and pay attention to what's going on around you!"
"Classmate Jiang, summon the sandworms out quickly and block the alley behind, don't let the rats rush in!"
"I know, classmate Gao!"
Jiang Feng had already locked his secondary career on "Sandworm Knight" and immediately spent a burst of astrolabe energy to summon natural allies.
A radiant summoning circle rose up on the ground in front, and a strange earth-yellow insect that looked like a giant python emerged. It had a pair of sharp jaws on its head, which opened and closed like scissors. It made a clicking sound when it collided.
Then it holds up a hook-shaped sting that oozes venom.
"Oh, I'll go! So handsome, Xiaofeng—Nausicaa!"
Wang Daqing looked at the heroic female knight on the giant insect's back, his eyes full of admiration.
Jiang Feng thought for a moment and finally realized what the "Nausicaa" he was talking about was, and he couldn't help but laugh - I really didn't realize that Comrade Lao Wang, who has thick eyebrows and big eyes, turned out to be a "Second Thorny Ape"!
Li Jiajia had never seen such a terrifying giant insect in her life. She was so frightened that she almost screamed again. Suddenly she remembered Qi Tian's warning and quickly covered her mouth, her eyes filled with tears.
Seeing her frightened and about to collapse, Jiang Feng shook his head helplessly, quickly ran to the sandworm, touched its head, jumped on the insect's back, sat firmly on the saddle, and held the spear tightly in his right hand.
, grabbing the reins with his left hand, he drove the giant insect towards the end of the alley, blocking the swarm of mutated rats.
The chitin exoskeleton of the sandworm is very hard and provides 5 natural defenses, which is equivalent to wearing a set of armor forged from fine steel. Even if it is surrounded and bitten by a swarm of mutant rats, the defense will not be broken in a short period of time.
What's more, sandworms are not docile domestic animals. They crawl among the rats and are squeezed by their heavy bodies. How can the fragile rats bear it?
Wherever the sandworm passed, screams continued to be heard from below, and countless mutated rats were crushed to death, leaving them bloody on the ground.
Jiang Feng rode on the back of the sandworm, holding his spear high but couldn't find a target worth stabbing, so he put the spear back into the storage space, freeing up his hands to cast spells.
The Level 1 Sandworm Knight automatically comprehends a 0-level natural magic spell, and Jiang Feng chose the "Fire Spell".
The palm of his right hand was spread upward, chanting a prayer praising the origin of nature in a low voice. A searing magic power surged out of his palm, transforming into a blazing fireball in mid-air, illuminating the dark alley.
Jiang Feng waved his hand and threw the fireball, which hit the center of the group of rats with a loud bang. Several rats were burned to death on the spot, and the surrounding rats were also set on fire.
When Qi Tian saw this scene from the side, his eyes suddenly lit up. He took out a bottle of high-strength liquor that he had just "borrowed" from the storage space of the astrolabe, aimed at the burning mouse and threw it at it.
The glass wine bottle smashed on the ground and shattered. The flying spirits were ignited by the flames on the rats, and a large flame spewed out with a loud bang, quickly spreading in all directions. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of rats were engulfed in the sea of flames.
"Xiaotian, you have a very smart mind!"
Jiang Feng smiled and gave Qi Tian a thumbs up, and then released the "Fire Burning Technique" again, igniting the other bottle of liquor he threw out, forming two walls of fire that blocked the entrance to the alley.
At the same time, at the exit end of the alley, the fire burned even more intensely.
Before the battle began, Gao Fei had already awakened the "Dragon Warrior". Facing the swarm of mutant rats coming in like a tide, he calmly turned on his rampage and transformed into a red dragon.
The rats on the opposite side felt the power of the dragon emanating from him, and they were all frightened and turned around and fled.
Gao Fei strode to a relatively spacious area, spread out his dragon wings and flew into the air, maintaining a low-altitude gliding posture about 10 meters above the ground, passing directly above the rats, and at the same time spitting flames downwards.
The blazing dragon's breath was like a moving wall of fire, sweeping over from behind the group of rats and sweeping forward. In an instant, hundreds of mutated rats were submerged and burned to ashes on the spot.
After the fierce flames swept away, the asphalt paved on the road was baked until it melted, and black smoke emitted and slowly flowed.
Occasionally, a few rats slipped through the net and ran onto the molten asphalt road. They were immediately stuck and screamed in despair.
