Absolute Death Game-Chapter 379 - 22 Stone-tooth Rat_2

And according to the general rules of games, items that are hard to obtain are definitely much better than those that are simply lying around in the wilderness. With this thought in mind, Xiao Buli made up his mind and roughly measured the height with his hands before turning to Yi Xuan and saying, "Bro, wait for me here, I’ll be right back."

Without waiting for Yi Xuan’s response, he performed a "Leaping from Dry Land," grasped the edge of the cave entrance, pushed off with his waist, lightly tapped the wall with his feet, and his upper body was already lying inside the hole. With one stride of his thigh, he climbed in.

Down below, Yi Xuan was dumbfounded once again. If the previous functions were somewhat useless, this one was genuinely helpful. To be able to squeeze into such a hole? For real? Not to be outdone, Yi Xuan thought he must give it a try too.

As he thought, he continuously jumped up using his Qinggong, hoping to leap into the hole, but unfortunately, every attempt failed. It wasn’t that he couldn’t reach the height of the hole—jumping that high was possible for Yi Xuan. The challenge was jumping to that height and accurately entering the hole. Not to mention that it’s impossible to change direction mid-air without something to push off from, even if it were possible, there wouldn’t be enough time to aim.

After trying for a while without success, Yi Xuan gave up, drained. He reckoned his skills in this game were too weak, or perhaps Xiao Buli was too good. Or maybe he just knew too little. In any case, there were too many things about Xiao Buli that amazed him.

Just as he was contemplating, a rustling sound suddenly came from behind. Yi Xuan, in front of the computer, felt his hair stand on end upon hearing the sound because it was all too familiar. He quickly adjusted the camera angle to look in the direction of the cave entrance, and saw a huge dark shadow slowly moving towards him, against the light. It might have been the giant python they had encountered before.

"Ah!" Yi Xuan screamed, and, not bothering about Xiao Buli in the hole, only thought of getting away from there as quickly as possible. He turned around and ran desperately deeper into the cave.

Let’s go back to Xiao Buli. After entering the hole, he found that the cave was quite spacious. Although he couldn’t stand up straight in it, he could at least crawl with all fours, rather than having to inch forward in a more suffocating manner. The smell inside the cave wasn’t good, but thinking he’d soon see the treasure chest, Xiao Buli didn’t care too much, telling himself that he could always soak in a hot spring back at the Immortal Palace afterward.

The cave stretched inwards for a short distance before turning a slight corner. Xiao Buli felt he crawled past the bend, and suddenly, it seemed brighter. The first thing he saw was the stone chest carved from bluestone on the ground, faintly emitting colorful Streaming Light, indeed prettier than those he had seen before.

Looking carefully, he realized this spot was actually a fairly large chamber with decent height. Xiao Buli jumped from where he was into the chamber and could barely stand up straight inside; as long as he didn’t jump, he wouldn’t bump his head.

Once inside, his view widened, and Xiao Buli was instantly thrilled. There were not only several chests in the chamber, but the walls were also piled with numerous swords, chainmail, and armor. It looked like a secret treasure storeroom.

Xiao Buli quickly made his way to the wall and picked up a piece of armor, a damaged golden chainmail (grey – breastplate). He then grabbed a chopping knife next to it, a damaged Straight Spine Wind Breaker Blade (grey – two-handed weapon). Xiao Buli frowned immediately, wondering why all of them had the "damaged" prefix. He knew that those three words could significantly reduce the Attributes.

He picked up the armor and shook it out to take a closer look. There were many small holes on the armor, and at first glance, they weren’t very noticeable. They were somewhat reminiscent of damage done by insects or rodents.

Do clothes in the game also attract insects if they’re not stored properly? Such a pity for all this equipment, I was just thinking about it when I heard a series of squeaks behind me.

As I turned around, Xiao Buli got quite a fright. He saw in the darkness behind him rows of yellow bean-like eyes tightly packed together, not knowing when they had approached without making a single sound.

At that moment, Xiao Buli’s mind was racing. He quickly found and put on the "Betrayer’s Dark Vision" on his head. Otherwise, if he couldn’t see the enemy while the enemy could see him, he’d be at a huge disadvantage. Now he could finally see clearly that the owners of those bean-like eyes were giant rats.

Each of these rats was over a meter long; unlike any rats Xiao Buli had seen before, their bodies were covered with thick keratin. If they were patterned, they would somewhat resemble the scales of pangolins, and it was clear their hardness was nothing to scoff at. Not to mention their sharp, huge incisors and razor-like front claws. Xiao Buli swallowed hard as he took in the number of rats in front of him.

This was the Immortal Realm after all. Even rats with such appearances would be difficult to deal with in the Human Realm, so wouldn’t rats here be of the enchanted or monstrous level? It seemed the hole in the wall wasn’t some secret passage but most likely dug by these rats. This secret room must have been turned into their nest by now. Who would have thought that in his greed for treasure, he would unwittingly stumble into a rat’s nest?

But now, easy to deal with or not, he had to face them. Xiao Buli’s thoughts turned to Soul Enlightenment, and he saw that these rats were named ’Stone-tooth Rats,’ just ordinary minor monsters with white names. Though they were Immortal Beasts and numerous, if one considered the strength of each individual, they should still be manageable.

While he was thinking, the group of rats parted, and a giant rat over two meters long emerged, sporting a bulging belly. Named ’Big Gold Tooth (Stone-tooth Rat King),’ its pair of incisors shone brilliantly, truly living up to its name. Big Gold Tooth was a rare elite, naturally inferior to the giant snake he faced earlier, but with so many minions, the fight wouldn’t be easy either.

Since arriving in the Immortal Realm, Xiao Buli had been cautious not to overstep, for he did not have a clear understanding of the strength of its people or beasts. He feared ignorance would be his undoing.

But now, these rats were blocking his path, and behind him was a pile of treasures that should already be in his grasp. With his back against the wall, Xiao Buli was prepared to go all out.

Facing such a horde, Xiao Buli had some experience. He knew well the principle of capturing the leader first, and after observing the terrain and the rats’ distribution, he quickly devised a battle strategy in his mind.

Seeing the Rat King had just arrived at the front and had yet to settle, Xiao Buli thought, now’s the moment, and a Sunfire Spellball was the first to blast out.

As for the Rat King, although it was covered in fat, it moved with incredible speed. Seeing the fireball approach, it quickly abandoned its slow, dignified stroll. Its four stumpy legs churned rapidly, outpacing the fireball. The fireball exploded at the Rat King’s former position, causing a commotion among the rats in the flames. But on closer inspection, Xiao Buli noticed that even those at the blast’s center barely bled, obviously due to the protective effect of their strange skin. Ignoring the explosion’s effect, Xiao Buli immediately followed up with his Ultimate Skills—Wind Rolls The Scattered Clouds.

Under his sword’s gleaming light, the rats naturally didn’t wait to be hit and retreated. But given the tight space and the large numbers that had emerged, the rats inside directly affected by the attack had no effective way to retreat. Blood and flesh flew in every direction, and due to the pressure from inside, the outer rats trampled over each other, some even climbing on top of their companions. If these had been little rats, perhaps such a scene wouldn’t be harmful, but these rats were massive, and their heavy keratin armors added almost a hundred pounds to each rat’s weight. In no time, the rat horde was in chaos. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommended tickets, monthly tickets.
