Chapter 778: Mutated Rats

Especially after hearing Situ Yi's account, she knew the situation there must be dire. Those mutated and enlarged rats should be tough opponents, otherwise they wouldn't have sent them in.

So she not only armed herself to the teeth, but also armed the whirlwind, equipping it with a suit of soft armor to protect its belly, spine, and little bottom.

At the beginning, Spin wasn't willing to wear this soft armor. However, Ripple patiently explained it to it, and then it accepted it. Even so, Spin still pushed the armor into Ripple's bag, hoping to wear it when they reached their destination. Ripple didn't object.

This time, Jia Yao stayed at home. Liu Zili and Xu Fenfang took turns looking after the child and preparing medicine while the other went on a rescue mission for the outpost. They treated wounded soldiers and tended to headaches and fevers, earning a bit of food every day.

An hour later, the whole team was assembled. Yuan Chongming, as the captain, led the team out again.

This time, there were five teams acting with them. Three of the teams had previously worked with them during the capture of Rikusawa, so they were relatively familiar with each other. Each team had a speedboat, quickly advancing on the melted water surface.

On the road, they could still see people diving under the water to collect things. Apparently, the rapid temperature rise made them less timid and they started coming out to find food. Some of the bolder ones even intercepted them, hoping to hitch a ride on their speedboats to the temporary base. When refused, they grumbled and complained. Only when Yuan Chongming drew his pistol did they quiet down.

“Now the water level has dropped, as long as one can swim, they can go into the water to catch food. As long as you are brave, you should be able to hold on. Our mission is important.”

The leader of another squad said.

After advancing for another hour according to the coordinates provided by the rescuers, he had to abandon the speedboat because the terrain here was higher. After the water level dropped, it had already exposed the ground. Moreover, their location was in a well-known shantytown area of Zhima City.

Looking at the partially collapsed shantytown before them, everyone frowned. The place was deathly silent, not looking like a place where anyone could possibly survive.

"Captain Lin, are you sure the location provided by the other party is here"

Yuan Chongming asked.

"This is it! The messenger said that he wasn't hiding here in the freezing weather, but in the neighborhood we just passed. He was attacked by rats and dragged here. This must be the rat's nest."

Lin Yi, the team captain, answered affirmatively.

With a meow, the whirlwind appeared. It wrinkled its tiny nose and then called out to the ripples again.

Everyone turned their attention to the whirlwind. Those who had previously worked with it, both military and police, knew its power and understood why Ripple had brought the whirlwind here. They all watched, eager to see what it would do.

"Be careful! If you find anyone trapped, shout for help. If things seem wrong, come back, don't push yourself, okay"

The ripples were like an old mother, putting armor on the whirlwind and giving it a little kiss on its head before setting it down.

Go!

"Meow" whirled, flicked its tail, and then shot into the half-collapsed shack district like a black bolt of lightning.

"The tornado smelled the mice and went to lure them out. Everyone get ready to attack! When my baby finds the trapped person, they will let me know."

The ripples explained to the expectant crowd.

Yuan Chongming nodded and was the first to step onto the narrow road into the shantytown. He moved cautiously, his squad members keeping formation behind him as they carefully entered the territory of the mutated rats.

Moments later, as the rescue team entered the shantytown, they heard "screeching" sounds mixed with "meowing".

The ripples of his face grew cold. He strode directly to the front of the ranks and addressed Yuan Chongming, saying:

"I'll lead the way, keep a safe distance from me and don't get too close!"

"Good! Be careful!"

The ripples have already been loaded onto the bullet, and the whirlwind in his house is calling so urgently, it must be that there are too many mice, exceeding his capacity.

The ripples, guided by the howling wind, swiftly locked onto their target. With light, agile steps, they charged forward, kicking open a rickety metal sheet door with a single kick.

"Whirlwind, jump!"

Ripple's eyes flashed, and she saw the beleaguered whirlwind being attacked. She immediately shouted loudly.

Meow!

The whirlwind responded swiftly, giving up any thought of retaliation, and sprang toward the low-pitched roof with a kick of its hind legs.

At the same time, ripples' assault rifle fired, directly firing at the swarm of mice that were attacking whirlwind.

"Squeak squeak squeak," the incessant cries echoed. When those who entered the shack saw what was inside, they all gasped and joined in the shooting frenzy as a wave of rats flooded their vision.

"Whirlwind, come back!"

As soon as the ripples stopped firing, everyone behind them immediately ceased fire as well. They didn't want to accidentally hit Cyclone; they couldn't afford that!

The whirlwind jumped down from the lampshade that was shaking on the roof, swiped at the rat blocking its way with two paws, then quickly hopped onto Lian Ri's shoulder, meowing non-stop.

"Retreat!"

Yuan Chongming immediately said.

After everyone else left, Ripples was the last one to finish up. He threw a grenade in directly.

A deafening explosion ripped through the relatively intact hut, sending debris flying and revealing a mangled corpse of a rat. It was enormous, easily the size of a medium-sized dog, its grayish fur matted with blood. Everyone's brows furrowed in unison as they exchanged uneasy glances, their vigilance instantly heightened.

Cyclone said he was swarmed by a pack of rats as soon as he went in.

Has the tornado found the location of the trapped people

"It's probably become mouse food by now."

Although Ripple didn't want to say it, the whirlwind conveyed that there was residual human scent in the room just now, but she only saw bones.

"Yikes! That's not a dozen or so people, that's almost two hundred!"

Si Tu Yi was also surprised.

"We've stirred them up, you ready I and the whirlwind will lead the way, let's go deeper."

The ripples could only say that.

"OK, you've worked hard!"

Ripple gave the whirlwind several small fish-dried to bribe it and then continued to let the little one start working.

Xuanfeng was also a bold one. After showing off the dried fish, he took the lead as a cat, continuing deep into the winding roads of the old residential area. Lianyi followed closely behind.

They hadn't walked even a hundred meters when Cyclone suddenly called out and sent an alert.

"Everybody be careful! The mice are coming!"

Ripples immediately reminded loudly.

Everyone had their guns loaded and were nervously watching ahead, but the first attack came from the back of the line. Mutated rats emerged from behind, biting at the shoes of a squad member who quickly disposed of one with his knife. After that, more rats poured down from both sides of the road like dumplings being dropped.

These rats were focused and relentless, targeting everyone in sight. They aimed to win through sheer numbers, instantly overwhelming the action team, though Ripple and Cyclone were excluded from their assault.s it heavy I calculated that he is now thirty-two years old. With the medical conditions in M country, as long as money is available, he could live to at least ninety years old. Less than sixty years...
