Chapter 779 Rescue Failed
After Ripple discovered that the rats were not coming down from the front, but from above, with a twist of her wrist, the life-threatening thread enveloped her and the whirlwind, and all the mutated rats that wanted to drown her were cut into pieces.
A sharp cry of "squeak" reached Ripple's eardrums, and then she discovered that fewer rats were attacking her. They probably knew that she was a tough opponent, so they chose to attack others.
Ripple's eyes narrowed. It was obvious that these mutant rats had a leader. She immediately said to Xuanfeng, who was standing at her feet obediently:
"Cyclone, can you find their boss?"
"Meow" Tornado nodded. Its target was originally the most powerful mouse, but it was blocked by its younger brother. It was already unhappy!
"Find it! Kill it and I'll help my teammates!"
"Meow" is no problem!
When the number of rats surrounding them decreased, Tornado jumped out in an instant. After a few jumps, he disappeared into the shanty town.
Ripple turned around and found that someone had successfully rescued himself. The knife in his hand was dancing and was harvesting the mutated rats. Before he could swing the knife, he grabbed the rat and smashed it to the ground.
Ripple waved his hand, and the life-threatening thread extended infinitely, and then covered everyone's heads like a propeller, and began to harvest mutant rats crazily.
Fifteen minutes later, everyone got rid of the mutated rats, but the exposed skin was covered with wounds, and even the long-sleeved combat uniforms were chewed up.
Yuan Chongming's team is in better condition, but they are all injured. Now only Lianyi is left standing, and everyone is a little embarrassed.
Situ Yi vomited blood and then said to Yuan Chongming:
"Captain Yuan, this won't work. There are too many rats. It might be difficult for the forty or so of us to complete the mission. How about calling for support?"
This was the most effective method he could think of.
"Standing in a stalemate here is not an option. You guys should exit here first. I'll go find Tornado and explore this place by the way. It would be more convenient if I am alone."
Ripple said directly.
Several captains finished checking their respective team members and came over. If it weren't for the powerful weapon of Ripple just now, they probably wouldn't be able to get rid of those mutated rats now. Although they don't want to admit it, if they follow them anymore, they will be a burden. .
"How confident are you that you will escape unscathed?"
Captain Lin Yi asked in a deep voice.
"Seventy percent."
"I agree that the ripples are deep, but we will wait for you at the speedboat, and if you don't come back within an hour, we will go in to find you."
We are all comrades in arms and came out together. There is no reason for Lianyi to take risks alone.
"Okay, I'll try my best to control the time, and don't relax. In the eyes of those rats, you are all rations. It's best to set up obstacles and prepare for battle."
After giving instructions, Lianyi tightened his helmet, nodded to his teammates, turned around and ran into the alley.
After listening to Ripple's words, the remaining people were not idle. They quickly exited the shantytown and chose the open area where they landed. They built a fortification by laying stones, bricks and door panels, and then stared nervously at the strait. The narrow path of man.
The ripples were no longer burdensome, and the life-threatening thread enveloped him directly. Her running speed continued to increase. After running a certain distance, she would stop for two seconds, listen carefully, and then adjust her direction and continue moving forward.
The sound of "meow" guided Ripple's direction, and there were countless mutant mice rushing towards Ripple along the way, almost drowning her.
However, due to the dense and sharp life-threatening threads, the moment the mouse fell, it turned into a lifeless corpse. These mutated mice were fearless and rushed from all directions, trying to slow down the ripples.
The cry of "meow" suddenly became high-pitched, mixed with the angry little trill of the whirlwind.
The ripples continued to accelerate, and a whirlwind was seen in an unwalled courtyard in the deepest part of the shanty town.
At this time, the whirlwind was also in a bit of a panic. It was fighting a mutated mouse the size of a calf.
"Tornado, are you okay?"
Ripple asked loudly as he jumped into the courtyard.
"Meow!"
Tornado, who was lying on the giant rat's back and scratching his opponent, immediately responded to express that he was okay.
"You take care of the boss, and I'll take care of his younger brother. Let's fight quickly!"
Ripple immediately spoke out.
"Meow!" OK!
Ripple is like a humanoid harvester. When it falls into the pile of rats, it keeps harvesting rat lives.
But she didn't harvest without purpose. Instead, she checked her surroundings while moving, and then threw some mutant rats against the closed door. When the door was broken open, she checked the situation inside.
Lianyi checked the four rooms, and her expression became even worse, because besides bones, there were still bones, and the pungent fishy smell stimulated her sense of smell.
At this time, Tornado was pinned down by the giant rat, and he was about to bite off its head, but Tornado took the opportunity to aim his sharp claws at the opponent's softest belly, and took out his claws before the opponent could bite it.
"squeak!!!"
The shrill cry of the giant rat shook Lilip's eardrums. She immediately turned around, just in time to see the whirlwind knocking the rat boss over with one claw, and clawing at the opponent's belly with all four claws.
Ripple immediately took a step forward, threw out the dagger in his hand, and inserted it directly into the head of the rat boss, instantly ending his life.
Tornado jumped off the opponent, jumped directly into the group of rats, and started killing everyone. Every time he used his claws, he would drop a mutated rat.
Ripple took back her dagger, found a bag, packed the body of the rat boss and stuffed it into her backpack. She wanted to take this back and hand it over to the resident scientific research team.
"Cyclone, come back! We are leaving!"
Whirlwind listened to the cat master's call and killed two more mice, then quickly jumped up to Ripple's shoulders.
Ripple was very fast. She took out the time bomb from the space and started throwing it at the place where the rats were most densely populated. She set a five-minute delayed explosion time. Every time she ran a certain distance, she would reduce it by ten seconds before throwing it out again.
Before she could join her teammates, the bombs in the deepest part of the shantytown began to explode, and then followed Ripple's footsteps all the way through the entire shantytown.
At this time, the members of the action team on the open ground defenses were not relaxed either. After Ripple left, the mutant rats attacked them.
Until the explosion sounded, the rats seemed to have received the call and receded like a tide, heading straight to the center of the explosion.
Yuan Chongming's eyes darkened when he saw it, and he said to the members of the vanguard team:
"Let's go pick up the ripples!"
"yes!"
No one objected. After checking the firearms and knives, everyone followed Yuan Chongming into the narrow road of the shanty town.
Yuan Chongming followed the retreating mouse, and as soon as he ran to a position separated from Ripple, Sun Weifeng saw the running Ripple with sharp eyes.
"Captain Yuan, it's Lianyi!"
Lianyi also saw them and immediately gave them a signal. Everyone immediately stopped and quickly turned around and ran towards the landing place. (End of chapter)
