Chapter 68 The Rat Tide Arrives

Such movement could not be concealed at all, and soon most of the miners in the mine discovered something strange and followed Heishuimen and fled out of the mine.

"What's going on? Why are there so many gold-eating rats behind you?"

"You don't have to think about it, it must be a tide of gold-eating rats! It's so unlucky that something like this that only happens once in a century has happened to us."

"Hurry up! I don't know how those people did it or how they caused the rat tide."

Most of the miners followed Heishuimen and his group to escape out of the mine. Only by following them could they have a chance of survival.

The five Li Ming people on the mining platform are currently meditating.

"What's the noise?"

Li Ming and Zhao Wei, who had the highest cultivation level, were the first to notice the noise coming from the mine.

"It can't be a mutiny! Old man Qiu has become more and more restless in the past year. He has asked me to leave the mine several times. Does he really have the courage to attack us first?"

Zhao Wei's expression was gloomy and uncertain. Several supervisors at Heishuimen knew that he was protecting Old Man Qiu. If he did anything, he would not be the only one to be punished.

"No, the old guy doesn't have the guts. Just in case, it's better to send a signal to the ancestor of the Liu family."

Li Ming said calmly that he didn't believe that Old Man Qiu had such courage. Could it be that other changes occurred in the mine.

Following the instructions of the two men, several other Black Water Sect monks also sent out signals, notifying Old Ancestor Liu and others at the entrance of the mine, and they all took out their magic weapons and were ready to prepare.

In the surprised eyes of the five people, the first person to rush out of the mine tunnel was not Old Man Qiu and Hao Dayou as they imagined, but Junior Brother Hai who was sitting in the forbidden area of ​​the mine.

At this moment, he looked embarrassed, his clothes were stained red by the blood of the gold-eating rat, and he was relieved to see Li Ming and others.

"Senior Brother Li, there has been a change in the mine. Please inform the Foundation Establishment Elder immediately that a tide of gold-eating rats has broken out."

"What? How is this possible? Recently, we have been dealing with gold-eating rats on a regular basis. Could it be Qiu Laogui and the others..."

Li Ming thought about many possibilities, but he never thought that there would be a wave of gold-eating rats. Even if the crisis is solved this time, I am afraid that he and Zhao Wei will also be in trouble.

Although there were five supervisors at Blackwater Gate, it was he and Zhao Wei who really made the decision, and they were the ones who reaped the most benefits. Of course, this is also something that is tacitly approved by the sect, otherwise who would be willing to delay their cultivation and come to this mine to guard the gate.

"Let's not talk about it for now. The top priority is how to resist this rat tide. We have notified the Liu family ancestor before that he will arrive soon. We must first gather people to stop the gold-eating rats here."

Zhao Wei saw more and more monks coming here, and he quickly told how to deal with them.

Qi Yunxian and others also came to the platform where the Black Water Gate monks were sitting.

At this moment, the originally spacious platform seemed a bit crowded. Qi Yunxian swept his mind and found that there were more than 300 monks gathered here, including the monks coming out of the restricted area.

Boss Qiu and Hao Dayou, as the two most prestigious people among the miners, quickly stabilized the miners' emotions.

"Supervisor Zhao, what should we do? The gold-eating rats are coming soon. Do we fight or retreat? Why don't we retreat outside the mine and wait for Patriarch Liu to calm down the rat tide before we can continue mining. That's great."

Boss Qiu suggested to the Heishuimen people,

"No, we can't leave the mine. We have informed the Liu family ancestor that as long as he holds on for a while, he will arrive. No one is allowed to run, and any offender will be killed without mercy! Especially you, Qiu Tian, ​​and Hao Dayou, who dares to take the lead? Heck, don’t blame us for being ruthless.”

Zhao Wei warned these two people that the other miners were fine, but these two had too much prestige. If they really took away most of the miners, there would be nothing they could do.

"Supervisor Zhao is joking. We have always regarded the mine as our home. How could we abandon this place and leave? We vow to live and die with the mine."

Qiu Tian took the lead in expressing his stance, and Hao Dayou and others also echoed.

"That's best!"

Zhao Wei also didn't expect that these two people would be so easy to talk to, and he felt a little more relaxed.

The tide of gold-eating rats also rushed out at this time, and the terrifying number made Zhao Wei, Li Ming and others tremble with fear.

"Isn't this the mine where all the gold-eating rats are here?"

"Don't be stunned. Block them at the entrance of the hole and don't let them rush out."

Immediately, various spells roared towards the group of gold-devouring rats, but the effect was not satisfactory.

The first is that there is a lack of spiritual energy in the mine, and the power of spells has been reduced.

The second is that the gold-eating rat has good resistance to spells of certain attributes. For example, earth and metal spells have limited damage to them.

And the water attribute spells that are the most restrained against them are greatly reduced in power in a waterless environment like a mine.

The third is the deliberate mischief by Qi Yunxian and others. Although on the surface, the spells of several people are amazingly powerful, they often deliberately offset the spells released by others, creating an effect that is very noisy but has little power.

However, more than 300 monks took advantage of the favorable location at the entrance of the cave to successfully suppress the impact of the gold-eating rats and blocked them firmly at the entrance of the mine. However, if this continued, as the mana was consumed without effective replenishment, the gold-eating rats could not be effectively replenished. Sooner or later the rats will come out.

At this moment, the Liu family ancestor who Zhao Wei had longed for finally arrived with reinforcements from Heishui Gate.

"Ground stab prison!"

The ancestor of the Liu family saw such a situation as soon as he arrived here. He didn't have time to ask Zhao Wei and others and quickly released his spell to save the situation.

Countless spikes suddenly emerged from the entrance of the mine tunnel, and countless gold-eating rats were pierced by the spikes.

But this is not over yet. As the Liu family ancestor closed his hands, the ground spikes flew out from the top, bottom, left and right of the mine tunnel entrance, shooting and killing the rats that had not yet escaped.

This one shot reversed the situation, and the entire rat group scattered.

The fatal crisis in the eyes of Zhao Wei and others was easily resolved. According to normal logic, it is difficult for the gold-eating rat group to gather again after being dispersed. The rest is just to beat the fallen dog and reduce the number of gold-eating rats again.

But this time it may not be so easy. The rat group was not really dispersed, but the gold-eating rat king controlled them to lure the Liu family ancestor into the mine. The final battle site was already selected by Qi Yunxian and others, which was in the restricted area in the mine.

First, the Liu family ancestor's mana was continuously consumed by the rat group, and finally the gold-eating rat king delivered the final blow.

After temporarily repelling the rat tide, the Liu family ancestor turned back to look at Zhao Wei and others.

"What happened? How could such a mistake happen? If it affects the sect's mining plan, even your master can't protect you."

Zhao Wei and others also endured it silently, not daring to refute it. Although this incident felt like an unprovoked disaster, it did happen during their tenure.
