In the Beehive plot in the Iowa Valley, one side wall of the three-story magic rat farm is adjacent to the fence of the plot. In the long breeding farm, there are magic rat pens on both sides of the middle aisle. The rat pens There are life-type magic patterns inside. The first floor is a second-level magic rat, and the second floor is a slightly smaller first-level magic rat.
He was walking in the breeding farm surrounded by knights and rat people. He was in a good mood now. The magic-patterned rat was considered to be the first large-scale warcraft breeding in the territory. The large number of demon-lovers in the territory finally had a reliable partner. Source of Warcraft meat.
What he is most concerned about is whether the rats, big and small, in his territory will escape from the stone walls of the breeding farm and breed in large numbers in the small town of Iowa.
Next to Lant was the rat-woman Pinkpaw, who respectfully introduced the habits of the magic-patterned rats to Lant: "Sir, the big rats in the enclosure are all healthy now, and it is estimated that they can give birth to at least one litter of mice every day. "
Lant nodded and asked, "Oh? If they are so fertile, are the little mice particularly good at digging holes?"
Upon hearing this, Pinkpaw shook his head and said, "Don't worry about this. In our clan, if the demon rats don't have the rat people to serve them, they won't be able to survive at all, and the mice born will not survive either."
"Ouch~ow~" With a cry, a mid-level magic mouse was born, with a patch of white mice under its body.
Intermediate magic rats with life magic patterns can give birth to dozens of mice in one litter. In order to reproduce more efficiently, the baby rats produced by the demon rats are not even fully developed and cannot survive without care.
Seeing the rat giving birth, a dozen dwarf ratmen quickly jumped into the rat pen and put all the baby rats in the transport trolley.
The baby rats produced by the demon rats will first be concentrated in the screening pit, and the rat people will screen out the ones most likely to break through. The potential baby rats will be fed with feed containing monster meat, while the ones that cannot break through will be frozen. The magic circle froze to death instantly and was used as feed for breeding devil fish.
The big rats are used to being taken care of by the rat people. After the current round of giving birth to the little rats, they start preparing for the next round. They do not consume magic power to feed or take care of the young rats. Both the young rats and the rats all depend on the care of the rat people.
Lant asked Pinkpaw, who was looking aside: "If we were in your tribe, how would you take care of the mice?"
"It's similar to the situation here. The rat people have to select the young rats that have the potential to make a breakthrough, and the ones without potential will be used as everyone's food rations," Pinkpaw explained, "As you know in our tribe, when the number of rats is at its highest, the rats There are hundreds of rats, and there are thousands of rats. Even if thousands of rat people go into battle, it is impossible to nurture all the rats. We can only select the strongest ones and eliminate the others."
"You see that the survival rate of rats is low. In fact, the survival rate of rat people is also low. Only the most powerful ones or those whose clans need them most can survive."
Rant nodded, not wanting to comment on the rat-man's life style that was so deadly, but asked: "Then can you guess which of these intermediate-level magic rats can break through to the high-level?"
"Sir, this is probably too difficult!" Fenzhao looked at the rat pens of the intermediate demon rats and was not sure, "And cultivating high-level demon rats requires a lot of monster meat."
"But it only requires a very small amount of high-level Warcraft meat and an appropriate amount of mid-level meat, right?" Lant asked with a smile.
Judging from what I have learned in the past few days, the magic beast meat and potions required by the demon rats from primary to intermediate levels are far less than those of the black scale horses. Moreover, once an intermediate demon rat is added, the rat group can add dozens of junior demon rats. It is an extremely cost-effective source of Warcraft meat.
"Yes, but we don't dare to say who can break through!" Fenzhao crawled directly to the ground and shook his head vigorously.
For the rat people, guessing which rat can break through is akin to participating in a battle for the right to inherit the throne. In the future, they will definitely end up being directly eaten by the demon rat.
Rant didn't say much, he just took out a small piece of high-grade monster meat from the space ring and stretched his hand to the side of the rat fence to see which monster rat was more interested.
Dozens of intermediate demon rats in the rat pen were all attracted by the rich demon meat, but only a few of them actually dared to get close to Lant.
"Are they afraid that once they become a high-level demon rat, they will be killed by me?"
Lant asked with a smile, but neither the knight nor the ratman dared to answer, so Lant could only continue talking to himself.
"Then do you think it is the only high-level magic rat in the territory that is easily eaten, or one of the intermediate ones?"
Lant walked slowly between the animal pens with the high-level magic beast meat. Finally, an intermediate-level magic rat that looked very smart came up to Lant hesitantly, and squeaked with a low eyebrow, saying, Be obedient.
After feeding the monster meat with his own hands, Lant nodded with satisfaction: "Well, very good, he is a smart guy. As long as you follow my request, I will mainly eat intermediate monster rats."
When Pinkpaw followed Lant out of the breeding farm, her body was still trembling. The human lords around her dared to do things that were even more terrifying than the top brass of the Orc Royal Court.
"There is one thing that I haven't quite understood, and I want you to explain it to me."
Suddenly, Pinkpaw heard Lant's words and was frightened.
"Whether it's rat people or demon rats, your tribe is not very good at fighting. Why did you go to the west of Iowa? You couldn't have come here to die, right?"
"Sir, I heard from the elders of the tribe that the idea of rats is that on the one hand, the surrounding tribes can ask for some food and raise more rat people, but more importantly, the human knights have magic beast horses. If they can kill a With knights or monster horses, you can raise several more middle rats!"
After listening to Pink Claw's statement, Lant felt that it was indeed consistent with the situation of the rat people, but there seemed to be some problems, so he quickly continued to ask: "So, they didn't think the attack could be successful from the beginning, they just came to kill the knights. ? Then does your original station have a long-term source of Warcraft meat?"
Pinkpaw nodded: "Yes, there are some mushrooms in our original cave, which are very similar to magic plants, but we have to compete with the goblins for mushrooms. Originally our tribe had an advantage, but in recent years the rat colony has become too large. If it’s too big, even if you eat all the mushrooms, they won’t be able to expand any further.”
"Who are you with? Goblins?" Lant caught a key term in the ratman's narrative, "Something like this?"
Rant took out an ancient sculpture from the space ring, which he bought when he was in Abaidee. It was a goblin-like bone sculpture.
"Yes, it is this kind of creature. They are very primitive, but their reproductive capacity is very high! And some goblins can also release magic."
Pinkpaw didn't dare to take Lant's things, but just came up to take a look, and continued, "I heard from the clan leaders that the rats once hoped that the middle rats could also release magic to fight against the goblins, but they fought dozens of times. Years later, the rats discovered that the easiest way was to have as many children as possible and let the mice drown the goblins."
