Shen Rui didn't know that someone took the initiative to step into the trap for him. If he knew, he would definitely lament that character determines destiny. This sentence really makes sense.
At this time, he was fighting in the first clearing target selected. The location was located in southern Europe, a once prosperous tourist city that had long since been turned into a reinforced concrete fortress.
Outside the fortress, they were in mid-air, looking down at a group of huge white rats.
These white rats are besieging this fortress, trying to make the humans inside surrender.
They were quite rare animals in previous lives, but in this world, they are very common.
Because they all come from a colony of alien rats in the nearby snowy mountains that changed their body color.
Rats are originally numerous, and they were originally very intelligent. As mammals, although they are small in size, they also have a higher chance of alienation.
In this world, the alien rat community has almost no natural enemies. Whether it is snakes or cats in nature, they are no match for their wisdom.
As cold-blooded animals and reptiles, the former have small brains and a low probability of alienation, not much higher than that of plants. Neither the smartest nor the stupidest are favored by special particles in the early days of the apocalypse.
Although cats are relatively powerful, their absolute numbers are too small compared to them, and cats are basically solitary and not social, making it difficult to fight against them in groups.
Only the higher-level alien rats can control their numbers.
They are smarter, more cunning, and understand the consequences of unbridled reproduction.
In fact, there is a kind of similar species called lemmings, which has the instinct to reduce their population on a large scale. Once they reproduce too much, they will collectively jump into the sea, creating an incredible spectacle.
According to intelligence, these alien rats are trying to use the background of "Operation Hell" to conquer Southern Europe first. There are already three fortresses, and they have to succumb to their rule and cultivate and build residences for them.
For these reasons, it is very easy to understand that the Europeans have listed these guys as the first targets of deterrence strikes.
Shen Rui is no stranger to strange rats. After all, they are also widely distributed in Kyushu and are also difficult enemies.
When he was at Jihe Fort, he fought against a group of alien rats that stole fuel and blocked the road, and he knew their cunning very well. They could learn all the tactics that humans know.
Shen Rui carefully looked at his opponent this time. The alien rats swarmed in and were arranged in a shockingly neat formation.
Beside him were six high-level powerhouses, five eighth-level body refiners, and a seventh-level perfect magic controller.
Similar to before, he still adopts a collective leadership approach. In this way, it is easier to reduce his own pressure, and of course the most direct way is to reduce risks.
"There are more than 70,000 alien rats on the opposite side. The number is staggering. Although they are less than the size of a porcupine, they are all above the fourth level. No wonder they are ambitious and want to conquer the nearby area." The seventh-level magic controller , a young man with bronzed skin introduced the situation he scanned to everyone.
Shen Rui nodded, he had already seen the trace prompts displayed on the ground below.
"Traces: Alienated Rat Swarm."
"Time: just now."
"Quantity: 75000+."
This was the first time he encountered such a large group of strange creatures.
In the past, the highest combat record in the battlefield space was only nearly 10,000, but this time it has increased by an order of magnitude.
"Not only that," a middle-aged man standing on the giant eagle with his fists folded across his chest and half of his body exposed, frowned, "I can feel that they seem to have formed some kind of formation, which can concentrate particle energy on a large scale.
, this is an unprecedented situation.”
Everyone frowned at the same time. Unexpectedly, even if they gathered the most powerful forces in the world, the first combat target selected would put a lot of pressure on them.
At this time, everyone saw again that among the group of white rats, a white rat that was only half the size of an ordinary alien rat and with lively eyes walked out.
It flew under the towering city gate tower and seemed to be saying something.
Everyone lowered their height and then heard the content of its speech.
The language turned out to be a local dialect. Fortunately, the seventh-level law controller understood this language and translated it for everyone in time.
"Have you seen our true military strength? Baron Rum, there is no point in defending. No one will come to save you. Believe us, we are civilized rats and will not treat you as slaves. As long as you surrender before
Sign the agreement and we will give you the corresponding noble treatment."
At this time, on the city gate tower, a man wearing plate armor and even his head in an iron helmet appeared.
Next to him were the same group of plate-armored men.
"No, even if I die, even if I jump from here, I will not surrender to a group of rats and be driven by a group of rats! I will bet on the honor of the nobles, and I will defend this fortress until the last knight dies in battle!" The leader
The plate-armored man yelled angrily.
"Stupid. It seems that we were too kind to you humans before. You mistook our kindness for cowardice. It's ridiculous. If we didn't want you to live better, we had a hundred ways to break it in half a day.
You weak castle!" The white mouse was a little angry.
"I'll give you two more hours to think about it. If you don't surrender the city and attack the castle this time, I will let my descendants massacre the city!"
There was a commotion on the tower, and the knights were a little panicked.
They understand that what the other party says is not empty words.
Just look at the tens of thousands of alien rats outside. If they dig holes from all directions and attack at the same time, how will they defend themselves?
Machine guns and artillery are completely useless.
The reason why they did not launch an artillery attack was because they did not want to anger the other party and wanted to delay the attack, because the fortress owner received a telegram saying that support was on the way and asked them to hold on a little longer.
But obviously, it can no longer be delayed.
Several plate-armored knights glanced at each other, and then looked at Baron Lang.
Some people couldn't help but said: "It's better to surrender. Of course we can escape, but the civilians in the castle can't escape. There are nearly ten thousand survivors. They have survived until now. We can't let them die in vain without hope."
of resistance."
Baron Rum was silent, and after a long time he said: "Okay, after I die in the battle, you will surrender. Someone has to let these lowly rats know that they can defeat us, but they cannot really defeat us!"
As he spoke, he jumped down from the seven or eight meter high tower gate.
Behind him, two more plate armored knights jumped down.
From low in the sky, everyone who saw this scene had expressions of admiration on their faces.
Shen Rui nodded secretly. Survival is human instinct, but there are always some people who dare to dance on the tip of a knife even in peacetime, as if they are not afraid of death.
For example, on the highest peak, there are buried too many people who have no worries about food and drink and have relatively outstanding living conditions. These people are just for the belief of breaking through their own limits.
The following baron is somewhat similar to those people, but also somewhat different. He fights for a higher belief and is more worthy of admiration.
Although this kind of fighting is obviously a matter of death.
"Even such a sixth-level warrior dares to challenge tens of thousands of monsters, how can we hesitate any longer?" An eighth-level strongman couldn't help but said.
Shen Rui looked at everyone, and they all looked like they were going to attack.
He nodded and chose "charge into the enemy's position".
