Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 11 The Devil Rat

When Zhang Tie woke up, he felt that his whole body was about to be shattered, and the pain of waking him up from a coma involuntarily made him let out a slight groan.

The first feeling this body gave him was pain, and after the pain, he felt joy in his heart——So, I'm not dead yet!

Although the battle with Dawson was not long, it finally made him understand where a tenth-level strong fighter has an overwhelming advantage against a seventh-level fighter like him. That bastard Dawson said Yes, the reason why a strong fighter is called a strong fighter is not without reason.

In this battle with Dawson, Zhang Tie has made great progress compared to the situation when he was chased and killed by the same tenth-level strong fighter in the dragon cave on the island, and he had no power to fight back. From the beginning to the end, Zhang Tie Tie and Dawson fought more than ten moves, and the whole process had a certain degree of offense and defense. When Dawson was almost killed with a thrown long sword, he even smashed it with his own flesh and blood when they fought at close range. Dawson's several attacks from the air, a seventh-level fighter and a tenth-level fighter can do this in a close-to-hand fight. If it is said, Zhang Tie is enough to look down on Tongji.

What's more, in the end, he almost escaped under Dawson's nose completely by relying on his own ability.

The only thing Zhang Tie didn't expect was that Dawson also had the ability to hit the sound.

That blow, if his body hadn't been tempered by the iron tire fruit to be extremely strong, just one blow might have killed him, even if he survived by luck, it would have caused him to lose his ability to move in an instant.

Zhang Tie didn't know what Dawson hit him, but that thing had Dawson's condensed fighting spirit, and the force was very fast. At the moment of being hit, Zhang Tiehe was punched by Dawson The feeling is about the same. His entire body and spirit instantly felt broken and smashed. At that critical moment, he couldn't even concentrate on entering the Black Iron Fort to take refuge. Inertia, I made a choice to escape from death.

Zhang Tie, who had regained consciousness, closed his eyes slightly, and felt that his primary recovery body was slowly recovering, and the pain and damage in his entire body were decreasing bit by bit like a silk thread.

Just by feeling, Zhang Tie knew that it must be dark now, because it was only when it was dark. The powerful recovery effect of the primary recovery body will be fully revealed.

The effect of the primary recovery body has slowly begun to appear, but the mental power in the sea of ​​consciousness is still in a strange "shock" state, just like a ship in a storm, under the influence of the frequency of waves, it cannot calm down down. Naturally, there is no way for people to "board the ship".

Zhang Tie's "boarding" was naturally returning to the Black Iron Fort. But at this moment, he couldn't concentrate because of his mental strength.

Things that are usually as simple as eating and drinking have become impossible.

Damn it, Zhang Tie cursed secretly, the thing Dawson hit him with was definitely not an ordinary hidden weapon. It is absolutely impossible for an ordinary hidden weapon to have this effect after hitting him. Not only his body, but even his spirit power is affected.

The consequences of mental power being affected. In addition to being unable to enter the Black Iron Fortress, the dark vision that relied on mental power also disappeared, and Zhang Tie found that his vision had returned to its original level.

Speaking of the body, Zhang Tie only discovered it now. My body seemed to be soaking in the water at this moment, and I was lying on the water on my back. The water was a little warm, and the warmth was actually quite comfortable.

As soon as Zhang Tie found himself submerged in the water, the water immediately flooded his mouth and nose, almost choking him.

Zhang Tie's whole body is very inflexible now, and he feels pain all over his body when he moves casually. The water seems to be a bit deep, at least his feet can't reach the bottom, relying on the toughness he trained on Qianlong Island Enduring the great discomfort and pain in his body, Zhang Tie did not let himself sink. He reached out his hand to touch the water twice, and found that his clothes were caught by a branch in the water. A dark rock jutting out of the water ahead made an effort to swim across.

The distance of less than ten meters had passed by Zhang Tie in the blink of an eyelid before, but at this time, it almost exhausted all his strength.

It was a stone in the water, less than two square meters out of the water. In the water around the stone were some rotten and withered vines, floating on the surface of the water around the stone. There was a musty smell. They just managed to climb onto the stone and reappeared. Lying down, Zhang Tie's whole body seemed to be drained of strength, and his chest rose and fell violently, panting.

After lying down on the rock for about ten minutes, the clouds that covered the two bright moons in the sky just now dispersed, and Zhang Tie, who regained a little strength, was finally able to turn over and sit up from the rock, and then began to look at the surrounding environment.

This is an extremely deep valley, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. Looking up from the angle where Zhang Tie is, it really gives people a feeling of sitting in a well and looking up at a line of sky. There are steep rock walls on both sides of the valley. Not to the end, but on those rock walls, Zhang Tie could see large tracts of vine-like plants growing on the rock walls on both sides of the valley through the moonlight that just came out.

In order to compete for enough sunlight, those vine-like plants struggled to grow upwards and outwards, and the dead vines in the water probably fell from the cliff above.

As soon as Zhang Tie looked at those vines, Zhang Tie knew that he survived this catastrophe, and those plants helped a lot. If he didn't have those plants as a buffer, and he fell into the water again, his little life would be reimbursed.

Speaking of water, Zhang Tie looked at the water surface he was in. It was a large pool with an area of ​​more than ten mu. There are a lot of pools, large and small dotted in the valley, some pools are connected, some are not connected, this kind of terrain looks quite strange.

Zhang Tie thought of the scene of flying clouds and mist that he saw when he jumped up during the day. It should be formed when the water vapor evaporated from the hot spring-like water rose to the top and condensed in the cold air.

Except for the pools and the vines on the cliffs in the valley, there was almost no grass growing, only some scattered stones, especially near these pools, which made Zhang Tie somewhat strange.

Zhang Tie rested on the rock for another half an hour. The effect of the primary recovery body restored some of his physical strength, and the pain in various parts of his body also eased. Although it was a bit cold at night, especially when he was wearing wet clothes, Zhang Tie's cold-resistant system helped him at this time, so that he didn't feel how cold it was.

Suddenly, a thought appeared in Zhang Tie's mind, there won't be any monsters here, right? As soon as this idea came out, Zhang Tie almost fought a cold war. According to that guy Tang De, these places seemed to be extinct. It is more likely that something terrible is living with it.

He widened his eyes and looked at the surrounding environment, swallowed hard, and comforted himself, it shouldn't be possible, he didn't die when he fell from such a high place. I shouldn't encounter any strange things anymore, God probably won't let me make snacks for monsters at this time. Except for being a bit fiddly. I like a little more women, and I don't do anything wicked. I have done a lot of good things and killed a lot of people, but basically I haven't wronged an innocent person. Although I am not a good person. However, he can do whatever he can to help those in need, and he has earned a lot of merit in the Black Iron Fortress.

Just as Zhang Tie was comforting himself, hoping not to encounter any strange things here, a little red light began to appear in the dark corner under the bank and mountain wall.

at the beginning. There were not many red light spots, only a few, because the light below was not good and the distance was a bit far away, Zhang Tie thought they were fireflies, but when there were more and more red light spots, densely packed everywhere, Zhang Tie realized No, those were not fireflies at all, but the eyes of some animal.

Those red light spots became more and more, and then they flowed like a tide, running in the valley, and Zhang Tie heard it, it was a sound of rustling.

Zhang Tie slowed down his breathing, and didn't dare to take a breath, so he squatted on the stone in the pool and looked at the red spots of light.

There were red light spots coming to the edge of the pool and drinking water with his head down. Zhang Tie finally saw what those red light spots were.

The moment Zhang Tie saw it clearly, Zhang Tie felt the hairs all over his body explode.

That's a mouse, and the red dots are the mouse's eyes.

Of course Zhang Tie is not afraid of a few mice, but the mouse that appeared in front of him at this moment has completely subverted his understanding of mice. Because Zhang Tie had never seen such a big mouse.

These rats, without their tails, are just the length of their bodies. They look about the same as an ordinary dog, with a length of more than forty centimeters. If they were connected to their tails, the length of each of those rats would definitely exceed one meter.

With a pointed mouth, sharp teeth, and a pair of violent blood-red eyes, if there was only one of this thing, Zhang Tie would feel a little relaxed, but the dense red light spots on the shore made Zhang Tie's body Goosebumps all over the place.

Zhang Tie suddenly thought of a terrifying creature in the ice and snow wasteland—the devil mouse.

This is a terrifying animal. In this world, apart from stones and metals, there is almost nothing they can’t eat, whether it’s the bones and flesh of animals or the roots, branches and leaves of plants. When such creatures appear in groups, Any animal should stay away from them.

When there is only one devil rat, it is no more difficult to deal with than an ordinary wild wolf, but the terror of this creature will increase geometrically with the increase of its number, and when its number exceeds 20 When the number of wolves is 20, they are no longer their opponents, and when their number exceeds 50, they can already make any wild beast retreat. If there are more than 100, it can already wash an ordinary small mountain village with blood.

The more such things there are, the more terrifying they are.

There are at least a thousand red dots in the darkness.

Zhang Tie only felt that his scalp was numb, but he didn't expect that this place would be a den of devil rats.

Can't see me, can't see me - Zhang Tie is praying devoutly!

It's a pity that the more afraid it is, the more it will come. When a devil mouse who was drinking water by the pool looked up, he saw Zhang Tie all at once.

Two pairs of eyes, one human, one mouse, one large and one small, just stared at each other...

Brother, don't blow the whistle, I owe you a favor, and treat you to seafood in the future! Zhang Tie, who had already lowered his body on the rock as low as possible, prayed silently in his heart.

The red eyes of the Demon Mouse flickered, and then, without hesitation, it called out in a thin voice, "Zhi...zhi...zhi".

Your mother, Zhang Tie cursed in his heart...

The sharp and ear-piercing cry of the devil rat echoed in the deep valley. Hearing this cry, the large red spots in the distance suddenly changed their direction and surrounded them all at once. It only took about ten seconds. After a while, around the pool where Zhang Tie was, several circles of devil rats had been densely surrounded. How many of those devil rats were there? Even Zhang Tie couldn't count them all at once. In short, there were a lot of them.

At this time, Zhang Tie felt like a piece of meat on the table, surrounded by a group of demon rats with red eyes.

The blood-red eyes of the Demon Mouse unabashedly revealed a crazy and cold killing intent, as well as a desire for Zhang Tie's flesh and blood.

The two sides were in a stalemate for a few seconds. Suddenly, a magic mouse jumped up from the shore. Its body was several times larger than ordinary mice, and it was also several times more sensitive than ordinary mice. Like a lightning bolt, it shot out more than ten meters in the air, landed in the water with a plop, and was still more than 20 meters away from Zhang Tie, and then swam towards Zhang Tie without hesitation.

At this time, Zhang Tie discovered that mice can swim, not only can swim, but also swim very well. Others are Huluo Pingyang being bullied by dogs, and I am Huluopingyang being bullied by rats. Damn, a mouse dares to swim in the water to find trouble for him. At the same time, he drew out his Pisces sword.

The first devil mouse swam close, just approached the rock in the water where Zhang Tie was, and just sprang up when the sword light of the Pisces sword slashed across, cutting off its head directly in the air.

Zhang Tie grabbed the Demon Mouse's body with one hand, raised his head, opened his mouth, poured the blood that the Demon Mouse had spurted into his throat, and gulped a few gulps. As soon as the warm blood of the Demon Mouse entered Zhang Tie In Tie's stomach, Zhang Tie felt that his body's vitality had recovered a little. In addition to the recovery ability of the body, the primary recovery body also has the ability of the digestive organs to digest food.

"Come on..." Zhang Tie threw the corpse of the devil mouse aside, yelled, wiped the blood from his face, and stared at those who wanted to eat him with red eyes. Devil Mouse, "Look who among us ate whom!"

The devil rats became restless. Amidst the chirping... chirping...at the same time, seven or eight devil rats jumped up from the shore like lightning, jumped into the water, and swam towards Zhang Tie in different directions...

A fierce battle unfolds...

...

Happy Friday everyone! (to be continued..)
