All the flares had been extinguished, and apart from Chen Mo, only Tina, who was mentally sensitive, could distinguish the whispering sound in the air. To normal people's ears, the sound they hear is just the whistling of the wind, but there is something special about the sound of the wind.
But Chen Mo and Tina could hear the murmuring sound mixed in the wind. Fortunately, only the two of them could hear clearly, otherwise it would definitely not be a good thing for the entire team.
Now Tina frowned and looked at the real space without speaking. So Terra was going to ask Tina through the intercom system if she wanted to move on. Although the entire space is the same as the tiankeng they saw when they were above, maybe they are under the tiankeng now, but what does it matter? As long as the task is not completed, isn't it necessary to move on?
Now, we should move on. It is best to complete the task neatly and quickly, and then everyone can go back to their homes. Terra now really wants to return to his station and really doesn't want to complete this task. Enough people have died to complete this mission.
Tra's words came out over the intercom, but Tina did not answer. Instead, she asked the people in front to get out of the way, and she walked slowly forward. When we stood at the entrance of the passage, there was the bluestone road in front of us, which could also be said to be a bridge, and there was another passage on the opposite side.
But what exactly is going on here? Why is that kind of murmuring voice echoing in my ears, but I also seem to hear waves of tiny sounds.
"Everyone, be quiet and stay alert!" Tina shouted to everyone.
Everyone was talking quietly just now, which somewhat interfered with her judgment. So after roaring, he observed carefully again. She took out the special spotlight flashlight from her backpack, shone it around and observed.
The mental power also instantly detects in the direction of the light!
"Squeak!"
"Crack!"
Although the rustling sound is small, at this time, when the entire space is quiet, especially against the background of the sound of air movement, it seems particularly harsh!
In an instant, Tina's lighting illuminated the place where the sound came from, which was under the bluestone road bridge deck.
However, because the distance was too far, Tina's mental power could not detect anything. The second is that although she heard the sound, she didn't see anything because of the light.
"Tella, there are flares again! Two! Shoot in that direction, at a slightly lower height." Tina shouted, and then she lit up a few fluorescent sticks and threw them directly in the direction of the sound.
However, because the distance was too far, and the pits were all covered with bones, after the fluorescent rod fell, it slipped through the gaps between the skeletons, and the range of lighting was reduced a lot, and it did not shine much, so it looked like Can't figure out what it is.
With the sound of "Bang, bang!", several flares rose into the sky again, and gradually landed slowly with everyone's eyes on them. Because Terra followed Tina's request, the flying height of the two flares was not very high, but almost slightly higher than the bluestone bridge deck. The two flares gradually landed, and then took pictures of the scenery under the bridge deck. Bright.
Under the bridge, at a depth of more than a hundred meters, it was still a vast expanse of white, with many skeletons stacked on top of each other. Everyone looked at it, but didn't notice any difference.
Suddenly, a person pointed at a place and shouted: "What is that?!"
Everyone looked in the direction pointed, and saw a black figure running through the bones, and the direction was towards the pier of the bluestone bridge.
And as one figure was discovered, everyone gradually saw more figures! One of them seemed to hear the sound at the entrance of the cave, stopped, and then looked over according to the light!
Suddenly, everyone was speechless in surprise.
mouse! Is this a mouse? ! The red eyes glowed, and then he looked at everyone, including the superpowers, feeling a little panicked in his heart! Moreover, even though they are a bit far away, in terms of proportion, there is not much difference between these mice and calves. Each one is the same size as a calf. Isn't this the same species as the mice that were killed when we first came to the hall?
It turns out that this is the mouse's nest. As the light shone, everyone found more rats emerging from under the bones, and then swarmed towards the bridge piers.
Is there something at the bridge pier that attracts these mice?
At this time, Terra fired two flares towards the bridge pier again!
Everyone looked over according to the bright light of the flare, but felt a little confused in their hearts. It turns out that these bridge piers are made of bluestones stacked on top of each other, so the gaps are very obvious, unlike the big pit that is surrounded by rock walls without too many gaps.
Although the mouse is huge, it has sharp claws, and it uses the gap in the bluestone to hook it and climb up.
More rats crawled out from the pile of corpses and gathered at the piers of the stone bridge. Then he used his sharp claws to quickly climb towards the stone bridge deck. In a short time, like a piece of black velvet, it quickly moved towards the bridge, and behind it were more rats.
No one has ever seen this kind of scene before, especially a mouse as big as a calf climbing so fast, heading towards the entrance of the cave where everyone is waiting.
Facing such a large number of mice, everyone couldn't help but feel a little confused.
There is no place in the entire Tiankeng where everyone can defend themselves. So after Tina looked at the surrounding situation, she shouted loudly: "Back off! Back into the cave!"
Terra also reacted at this time. After hearing Tina's cry, he directed many mercenaries to slowly retreat towards the back passage. The psychic, on the other hand, quickly retreated after Tina shouted.
The cave is only less than two meters wide and less than four meters high. Therefore, if a mouse wants to attack everyone in such a stone cave, it will not have such a wide attack area on top of the stone bridge!
The stone bridge can be attacked from the front or from below. Seeing how these rats can quickly hook into gaps in rocks when running, and then climb and run, you know that these guys can never attack everyone from the front.
But it's different in the cave. Since there is no wide range, the rats can only attack everyone from the front. In this case, it will be much simpler to prevent all mouse attacks.
In fact, when humans face rats, especially when rats swarm in and out of sight, no matter who they are, they are afraid! Whether they are mercenaries or people with supernatural powers, they will all feel a sense of fear. So defense is naturally the top priority.
Not long after everyone entered the passage, rats swarmed towards the entrance of the cave.
"Fire!" Terra gave the order decisively.
"Bah! Bah!...!"
"Ta-ta! Ta-ta!...!"
As the gunfire rang out, many rats running in front suddenly fell to the entrance of the hole.
However, many rats fell down, but it did not affect the movements of the rats. The rats behind them once again filled the position of the dead rats, and still swarmed towards the crowd.
Moreover, everyone looked at each one with red eyes like calves, which made the mercenaries break out in cold sweat. Not to mention mercenaries, even those with superpowers, most of them had pale faces.
"Damn it! Shoot in the head, don't shoot randomly!" Terra saw many mercenaries' bullets in front of them missing, so she naturally shouted loudly.
Behind the mercenary, the superpower looked at such a big rat and thought about the pit full of bones. These rats were walking through the bones. Thinking about it, he felt itchy all over his body.
"Bah! Bah!...!"
As the guns were fired to eliminate some rats, Terra found that although there were not too many of these fluffy rats, they were much easier to deal with than the green wolves, flying monsters, etc. they had just encountered.
They seem to be different from other monsters. As long as these rats are beaten to death, they will not turn into pieces, but will bleed dark brown blood, and it is very smelly!
Due to the large size of the mouse, the bullet will not cause death when it hits the body, but will only kill the mouse if it hits the head.
In addition, rats are much more resistant to bullets than ordinary animals. He was shot several times in the body, but he still rushed over regardless!
"Be careful, don't waste bullets, don't waste bullets, shoot the mouse in the head!" Terra saw the effect and shouted to all the team members again.
As the rats in front were eliminated by the mercenaries, the rats in the back stepped on the dead rats in front and rushed towards the mercenaries crazily. For these rats, they have no feeling of death, but their red eyes burst out with strong bloodthirsty emotions.
"Cover! Alternate retreat!" The distance between the front and the mouse's forward was somewhat close, so Terra would only retreat alternately with the mercenaries. In order to keep a certain distance and prevent rats from rushing up.
In addition, because the passage is relatively narrow, only three or four people can shoot side by side. Since there must be enough evacuation channels, they basically work in groups of two, squatting down and firing, while the teammates behind them fire from a slightly higher position, and then higher in order. There are about four groups of eight people firing at the same time. ~Gun.
After the bullets were fired, those who had no time to change bullets turned around and bent back, while the team members behind them came up one after another. In this way, it can also make up for the gap in firepower.
Moreover, although monsters like rats are numerous and large, they do not climb the wall or rush from the top. If they jump, they may jump very far. But due to the height limit of the passage, you can't jump very far.
Therefore, this time, the mercenaries were much more calm when facing the mice than when they faced the little monsters.
For a time, the passage was filled with flames. After the mercenary's mood stabilized, the accuracy of shooting the rats gradually improved, and the conflict with the rats gained the upper hand.
