At this time, the mice in the house were not aware of Yi Chun's arrival.
After all, even if the average domestic cat likes to be clean, it will inevitably have certain smells.
Because licking cannot completely eliminate these smells.
As for Yi Chun, who has directly transformed into a cat form, the smell on his body is undoubtedly weak.
Of course, as Yi Chun continues to move, the secretion of sweat glands on his flesh pads will also make his breath richer.
But for now, he still maintains this excellent hiding state.
The soft pads of flesh touched the wooden board, making an inaudible sound.
And soon, Yi Chun found a dark place.
That is a blind spot that cannot be illuminated by sunlight, and it is also an unavoidable shortcoming of this kind of wooden house.
As the surrounding light weakened, Yi Chun's pupils began to change.
It began to dilate, and the pupils that had seemed slender under the previous sunlight became rounded.
Just like the autumn moon, it absorbs all the surrounding light into the eyes.
According to Yi Chun's sense of smell, this is a place where rats in this area often pass by.
Because it leads to the family's storage room, where peanuts and corn kernels that have not yet been ground into powder are piled up.
Although there are no cats, it does not mean that the owner of this house has no measures to prevent mice.
After all, they are people who forage in the fields, so naturally they have all kinds of homespun methods to try to solve the problem.
Of course, so far, there has been no substantial progress.
At least why they didn't consider raising a cat was beyond Yi Chun's thinking.
There are many more reasons why people in rural areas don’t keep cats than people in cities. It can be because they worry about daily feeding, or it can be because a member of the family dislikes cats.
Or maybe it's a superstitious taboo, or even a casual remark made by some crappy gentleman.
Deep in the mountains far away from civilization, all absurd reasons and phenomena can be found.
The dark environment made Yi Chun feel somewhat relieved.
The cat's keen perception allows him to feel the eyes that meet him in the natural environment.
And now, he is the only ruler in this darkness.
He holds complete control over the fate of those coming rats.
Yi Chun just lurked quietly in the darkness, and the orange figure became trance-like and chaotic under the darkness...

"squeak……"
With no human activity in the house, the rats began to behave wildly.
A fat house mouse emerged from a crack in the attic and looked around furtively.
After finding that no one was there, he made a squeaking sound and moved downwards cautiously.
Generally speaking, mice like this are active at night.
But as the density of rats in the area continues to grow, some changes in habits are inevitable.
Because, as the number of rats around increases, the chances of being eaten safely begin to become scarce...
This is a game of survival, and habits exist for better survival.
And now, they must make changes...
Rats' eyesight is actually very poor, but their keen vigilance to the environment is excellent enough.
Even though there are few cats and weasels in this house.
But the mouse still did not relax its vigilance. It slowly slid down the wooden wall after receiving some responses from its peers.
After falling to the ground, it quickly hid under the corner next to it.
After waiting for a while and finding no other movement, it began to move furtively along the corner of the wall.
"squeak……"
It makes certain calls with directional messages towards other members of its kind, and then happily runs towards the granary in its memory.
The memory of rats ranks first among creatures of the same size.
They can remember the traps that have hurt them and find ways to deal with them.
From a macro perspective, the mouse ran towards the door with many gaps in it with brisk and sneaky steps.
Vaguely, the mouse seemed to smell the fragrant smell of corn kernels after being exposed to the sun.
Subtle expression changes can be seen on its face.
But at the next moment, something huge suddenly rushed towards it in the darkness!
…………
…………
"Creak..."
The wild instinct makes the sharp tearing more deadly and ferocious!
Under the strengthened sharp teeth, the mouse's skull was cracked and its nerve center was violently damaged, causing it to lose its life in an instant!
The instinctive feedback of the muscles caused its still warm body to twitch slightly.
The fishy-smelling blood flowed along the teeth, giving off a sweet taste in the mouth.
Struggling or resisting, just like this subtle spasm at this moment, is weak and powerless!
Yi Chun let go of his mouth, but the mouse's body still fell to the ground.
At this moment, his heart was vibrating at an extremely fast frequency!
Then, as the killing ended, it gradually calmed down...
In a society where chicken killing is now automated, this primitive and brutal experience was something that Yi Chun had never experienced before in his life.
Although, Yi Chun lives in a market town surrounded by mountains and forests.
However, his work and hobbies determine that he will not have any interaction with real nature.
And the fighting in virtual games cannot even describe the impact of real killing!
Intertwined with the fishy smell and bloody taste of the rat, as well as its violent struggle and rapid death...
Perhaps it was the cat's body that gave Yi Chun a stronger wild instinct.
At this moment, he didn't feel sick or withdrawn.
Instead, something as burning as fire surged in his heart!
Once upon a time, I was used to those winding and confusing rules...
At that time, I was so weak that I was manipulated by fate...
Those flatteries, those groveling...
Not anymore!
There seemed to be something immersed in Yi Chun's eyes.
It is not as cautious as a domestic cat, nor as vigilant as a wild cat.
Under the seemingly ordinary coldness, there seems to be some kind of breathtaking sharpness condensed.
Maybe it's the size that gives the beasts their majesty, or maybe it's something else that condenses the bloody wildness...
"Based on your current wild form, proficiency is increased by ↑5% (hunting)."
"You have gained a slight increase in the way of nature, and you have gained 100 points of professional experience."
At this moment, new information appeared in front of Yi Chun's eyes.
Even in the darkness of the surrounding environment at this moment, Yi Chun could see this information very clearly.
After digesting the information brought by this information, Yi Chun stopped paying attention to it.
Although the dead rats made no sound, the smell of blood that gradually dissipated in the air alarmed the rats.
This place is no longer suitable for hunting, at least not for novices like Yi Chun.
However, there are still many hunting places like this here...
