The speed of the seven or eight giant rats rushing behind them was visibly slowed down by the naked eye. The distance that could have been covered in two or three seconds actually took more than ten seconds.
And within these ten seconds, the giant rat that knocked Ulla down had been transformed into a hedgehog by other cavemen.
Ula looked at the group of giant rats in slow motion in disbelief, then excitedly raised the wooden spear in his hand and rushed towards the group of giant rats.
These brains simply cannot understand why those green-headed two-legged beasts became so fast. In just a few minutes, they were all stabbed to death by the cavemen.
【You have won a brilliant victory! You gain less experience. 】
"Sir, we have just left Castro's sphere of influence, and we are still contaminated with a small amount of Lord Moises' aura. There is only one reason why these giant rats dare to come and attack us."
"That's because they don't have enough food. Now is the breeding season of giant rats. Their nest should be nearby. There are probably a lot of baby rats in it. The meat of these baby rats is very delicious. We are still far away from that mineral vein. We're two days away. I'm afraid you're not used to our mushrooms, so you can roast those baby rats and take them with you." After resolving the battle, Ula immediately came to Buck's side.
As a subordinate with maximum loyalty to Buck, he would naturally consider his master.
After hearing what Ulla said, Buck frowned, but still nodded in agreement. After all, even if they found the mineral vein, they would have to dig up to get out of the ground. At the same time, they still didn't know where the top of the mineral vein was. The food was indeed is a problem.
The cavemen also have a very good sense of smell, and soon everyone found the nest of the giant rats.
After killing a few female rats, a reminder popped up.
[You have discovered the tunnel giant rat's nest. Do you want to train the tunnel giant rat? 】
To Buck's surprise, the nests of these giant rats were actually recognized as military training buildings. These giant rats belonged to the first-level neutral arms and could be trained without spending a penny.
Buck naturally liked things that cost nothing. The Giant Rat Lair could train 18 tunnel giant rats every week. Buck chose to train without hesitation.
I saw that the young rats that had not yet opened their eyes in the giant rat's nest suddenly changed. The bodies of the 18 young rats began to grow rapidly, and their originally white hair also turned dark.
After a while, 18 adult giant rats appeared in front of Buck, and Buck named them directly.
[Name: Shuke No. 1 (normal)]
[Combat Level: Level 1 Level 0]
[Military Type: Tunnel Giant Rat]
[Skill: Bite - The tunnel giant rat's teeth are extremely sharp and can easily bite through solid objects. 】
[Skill: Plague - The tunnel giant rat carries an unknown virus, which has a chance of infecting the target creature when it attacks. 】
[Morale: 0]
【Lucky: 0】
Buck didn't expect that the training of beast-type soldiers would directly catalyze their growth. If he got the dragon egg...
Thinking of this, Buck's saliva almost flowed out, but he quickly came to his senses. After all, even if there were dragon eggs, he would have to occupy a dragon's nest before he could train.
There were fifty or sixty baby rats in the rat den, 18 of which were trained and matured by Buck, and all the rest were caught.
Buck asked Ulla to leave 18 baby rats. Today is Sunday, and tomorrow we can get 18 giant tunnel rats again, which is worth Buck's half-day waiting.
The remaining giant rats were killed by Ula and the others, and then roasted into roasted rat meat. Buck took a bite, and the taste was unexpectedly tender.
Just after 12 o'clock in the morning, Buck received the prompt and directly tamed the remaining baby rats into giant rats, and then rushed towards the direction of the mine.
Having 36 giant rats as scouts saved Buck and the others a lot of trouble. The underground world is extremely dangerous and full of predators in the shadows. Of the 36 giant rats, 12 were lost in just one day, most of them. Devoured by some shadowy predator.
Many of these predators are cold-blooded animals and even carnivorous plants, which the caveman's infrared sensors cannot detect at all.
However, the harvest was quite great. With the deployment of tactical skills and the occasional use of Buck's spells, several battles were completely won.
Buck quickly moved up the ranks again.
[Your strategy level has been upgraded to level 2. 】
[Your knowledge +1]
[Please select your improvement ability]
[1. Defense (Elementary)]
[2. Wisdom (Elementary)]
[3. War Madman (Special Ability of Offensive Technique)]
[4. Training expert (unique ability to counterattack)]
Thanks to the magic book obtained, the wisdom spell that was originally difficult to appear in the knight profession actually appeared in this upgrade. This is the key to learning advanced battle magic. Buck chose the wisdom spell without hesitation.
In this way, when you arrive at Black Cliff City again, you will be able to get three third-level magics for free. Compared with the first two levels of magic, the third-level magic is a qualitative change, which is simply great.
After walking for about another day, Ulla brought Buck to the end of a passage. There were rubble everywhere, and it was the passage that had been excavated.
According to Ulla, Castro's lord was not Daimac, but a tauren. This guy was a militant and wanted to expand his dungeon into the Empire of Dawn, so he ordered his men to The cavemen dug in that direction.
After digging out the stone mine, he purchased many caveman slaves and increased the mining progress of the stone mine, both to speed up the tunnel digging and to raise funds.
After all, things like stone mines are not very valuable in the underground world, but the output of this stone mine is relatively large. The tauren deliberately lowered the price of the stone mine, but he also sold a lot.
However, during the excavation process, I don’t know what was dug out. A large number of people died in the caves. Even the tauren lord who went to check was killed. The deputy city lord directly ordered the tunnels to be dug down, and then the underground city was Packaged and sold to Black Dragon Moises.
And Daimark is a lucky guy. This guy dug out a vein of gold mine and dedicated it directly to the black dragon Moises. He hoped that Moises would allow him to lead the army and promised to keep all the gold coins he earned. Turn it over.
Moises was moved by this latter promise, and he took Dymac as his direct subordinate, asked Quilin to transform him, and handed over the abandoned Castro to Dymac.
As a transformed caveman, Dymac, who had no record of success, could not command those dungeon creatures at all, so he simply accepted the cavemen and led this group of cavemen to rely on Moises' reputation to do the job. He did a lot of business and established trade relations with several tribes in the swamp, earning a lot of gold coins.
These gold coins were handed over to Moises. As for him and the other cavemen, they only had to eat mushrooms. Even the gold headdress on his head was given to him by Moises, and he directly melted the headdress. He made an identical gold-plated headdress and donated the rest of the gold back.
After hearing Ulla's introduction, Buck still let his cavemen start digging while he hid far behind.
Because according to what Ula said, the previous tauren lord also died inside, so being careful is not too much. After all, to be able to become the lord of a force in the dungeon, the tauren's combat level has reached at least level 8, and his strength cannot be underestimated. peep.
