Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Hundreds of Rapid Biting Rats crawled out of the drainage pipe.
More Rapid Biting Rats were stuck in the drainage pipe. They fought to be the first to squirm out.
The eyes of the Rapid Biting Rats that rushed out were bloodshot. Their breathing quickened, and they pounced on the cooked rice balls in a frenzy. They completely ignored Meng Chao.
Dozens of Rapid Biting Rats surrounded the rice balls. More Rapid Biting Rats stepped on the former's backs and climbed up. In an instant, they formed ten disgusting rat mountains!
"How did he do it?"
The invigilators were dumbfounded. "Why aren't the Rapid Biting Rats afraid of him? They're even piling up so tightly that not even a drop of water can pass through. They're basically delivering themselves to him!"
"Did you notice? These are all male rats."
A military officer with a scraggly beard and a face covered in monster claw marks narrowed his eyes. "If my guess is correct, Meng Chao harvested the reproductive glands of five female rats just now. He also used the stimulants he obtained from the insect juice and emergency medicine to stimulate the hormones in the reproductive glands. He sent their scent into the drainage pipe, causing the Rapid Biting Rats inside to think that it's breeding season.
"Under the control of their reproductive instincts, the Rapid Biting Rats ran out in a frenzy. They don't even care about their lives."
The invigilators and powerful fighters fell silent.
To many creatures, reproduction was indeed more important than survival.
The Rapid Biting Rats were also monsters with astonishing reproductive abilities. Female rats only needed a few months to mature, and in one year, they could produce hundreds of offspring. With their large numbers, they had once caused great trouble for humans.
Now, they used chemicals and infrasound to stimulate the Rapid Biting Rats' nerves, which made it very easy for them to be controlled again.
The rat swarm near the drainage pipe grew to thousands of them.
Just when the male rats were twitching violently …
Meng Chao pulled the pins on all the hand grenades and napalm bombs at lightning speed and threw them all out.
Then, he quickly retreated and hid in a ravine. Boom!
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Dozens of hand grenades and napalm bombs exploded. Even if they were not earth-shattering, they were deafening.
Sparks shot into the air and shocked countless examinees.
"It's the sound of hand grenades. Who brought so many hand grenades?"
"Forget about bringing so many hand grenades, why did he throw them all out? That idiot! Does he want to blow up a Rapid Biting Rat one hundred times?"
"I saw it just now. I think it's an idiot from Ninth High School!"
In the monitoring center, the layers of fireballs also stirred up a wave of shock.
"Just how many Rapid Biting Rats did Meng Chao kill?"
"Did he just create a new record for instant kills during the national college test in Dragon City?"
"He only used one second to kill more than many elites from the three famous schools in half an hour!"
The grenades exploded at a close distance above the Rapid Biting Rats' heads. The destructive shrapnel fell down like burning metal rain, and hundreds of Rapid Biting Rats died on the spot.
Even if some of the Rapid Biting Rats' wariness was enough to win against their instincts, they were surrounded by their own kind, so much so that they could not get through. The mud under their feet was also quite sticky. Half a second was not enough for them to crawl out. They could only be reduced to ashes by the fire bombs.
In the end, Meng Chao killed too many Rapid Biting Rats in an instant, and the system overloaded itself. Even the superbrain was delayed.
After a full ten seconds, bright red data appeared on the screen.
"Examinee Meng Chao, current score: 672 points!"
One Rapid Biting Rat was one point, and Meng Chao had not obtained a single point before this.
This meant that he had killed and burned nearly seven hundred Rapid Biting Rats with just that ambush from the grenades.
It has to be known that even the three strongest elites in the examination area had only obtained around seven hundred points.
It was not because Luo Hai and the other two's marksmanship was bad, but because they had a limited number of bullets.
The standard ammunition for each soldier in the armies on Earth was around two hundred to three hundred bullets.
After they transmigrated to the Other World, the soldiers' stamina increased by leaps and bounds, and the number of bullets they could use increased by leaps and bounds. Most of the elites had exchanged for seven to eight hundred bullets.
Even if they killed with every shot and never missed, they could only get seven hundred points, and they used up a lot of their stamina, eyesight, and concentration.
It has to be known that shooting accurately was not as simple as standing and pulling the trigger. It was especially so when it came to killing "quick and nimble" targets like the Rapid Biting Rats. Every time they held their breaths, aimed, and fired, they had to mobilize thousands of muscle fibers and nerve bundles. It was even more tiring than swinging their sabers ten times.
Luo Hai and the other two had fought with their lives on the line and had blood capillaries pop out of their eyes to get their points, but Meng Chao easily caught up to them while he hummed a tune and ate chocolate.
"This is seriously …"
The powerful fighters who saw this felt very complicated emotions.
The examinees were naturally even more shocked than them.
Everything was based on actual combat, and everyone was a comrade. They shared their fighting data and knew each other's points.
This also allowed the examinees who fell behind to adjust their strategies in time and catch up.
Meng Chao had always been at the bottom, but in an instant, he shot to the top of the ranking board. This caused the examinees who had been fighting to be dumbfounded for a long time while they fought for every second they had during the national college examination.
Luo Hai, Fang Da, and Xie Feng stopped fighting at the same time in the first workshop, which had the most Rapid Biting Rats in the depths of the examination area.
They wiped their bloodstained faces and stared at the shining screens on their wrists in disbelief.
"He killed seven hundred Rapid Biting Rats in an instant? How did he do it?! "
"He didn't even exchange for a single bullet. How could he kill so many of them just by relying on grenades?"
"This is the place with the most Rapid Biting Rats in the entire machine factory. The explosions clearly came from the perimeter. How did he manage to find so many Rapid Biting Rats in that place?"
For a period of time, Fang Da and Xie Feng stared at Luo Hai with strange gazes.
It was as if they were asking, "Just what sort of monster appeared in Tiger Forest Region?"
Luo Hai was stunned for a long time, but he could not understand it.
He could only smile. "Why are you spacing out? He just killed a few rats. What's next is the main show."
Whoosh!
His saber flashed, and three Rapid Biting Rats were sent flying. Then, he cut their throats cleanly. He only used 0.1 seconds, and it was just one slash.
"That's right. The Rapid Biting Rats are just the appetizer. During the second half of the night, the education department will send in even fiercer monsters. Each of them will be worth ten times or even dozens of times more than the Rapid Biting Rats. I remember that Meng Chao only exchanged for the cheapest Lightning Saber. Looks like he's mastered some unorthodox method and wants to get points from the Rapid Biting Rats. He probably won't be participating in the subsequent tests, right?"
Fang Da and Xie Feng looked at each other and cast aside the guns that fired photon bullets. They drew their super alloy sabers and started killing at high speed.
Once Meng Chao caused such a ruckus at the periphery of the examination area, he saw the points and ranking on the screen. He also saw the nearly one hundred contribution points he gained from killing the Rapid Biting Rats. He whistled.
Up to this point, his rewards were pretty good.
But if he wanted to get into the best course, he could not let his guard down. He had to do his best.
Meng Chao's eyes burned brightly as he scanned the periphery of the explosion.
The Rapid Biting Rats were not the only ones who were affected by the explosion.
A large number of abnormal insects crawled out of the ground.
Without any effort, Meng Chao used the military shovel to knock out and pick up a large number of insect carcasses.
Black-tailed Bullet Scorpions were small arachnids. They were less than ten centimeters long, but they had the most "painful" venom among scorpion-type monsters. It worked on the central nervous system.
Even though it was not fatal, the victims' wounds would hurt as if they had been shot by a bullet. That was how they got their name.
Red Giant Centipedes were hot-tempered, and their venom was strong. They could make the victims' muscles spasm, create hallucinations, and even convulse until they fainted.
Meng Chao harvested the venom glands and sacs of around eight types of abnormal insects and mixed them with the stimulants in the emergency medicine bag. Then, he added the sugars and gels from the military rations to create a sticky liquid.
Then, he used the pincers on the multi-purpose military shovel to make dozens of shallow cuts on both sides of the Lightning Saber.
He used a small brush to dip it in the venom and brush the blade.
"He's poisoning it!"
"He actually created a natural venom that works on nerves and muscles at the same time, and he smeared it on the saber!"
Meng Chao's rather strange actions naturally stirred up cries of surprise in the surveillance center.
Quite a number of the powerful fighters in the military gasped in amazement. The boy looked like he was still wet behind the ears, so why was he so skilled and calm? It was as if he was a veteran who had been fighting in the fog for decades?
Meng Chao smeared the venom on the saber and swung it to make sure that he would not fling it off.
Suddenly, he shot forward and swept his leg, sending two Rapid Biting Rats flying into the air. They did not manage to dodge in time.
Whoosh!
He executed the One Hundred Saber Techniques at lightning speed.
He intentionally did not aim at the Rapid Biting Rats' throats. Instead, he aimed at their thick hind legs to test the effects of the venom.
"Screech!"
The Rapid Biting Rats he injured did not seem to have suffered a deep wound and were not fatal, but they let out piercing screeches and twitched in pain. When they fled, they staggered.
Meng Chao observed them carefully and sat down cross-legged to calculate the time it would take for the venom to take effect.
Then, he magnified this result on larger monsters so that he could figure out what sort of strategy he should use when he ran into Illusion Cats.
At some point in time, the practical test went on for two hours.
The examinees' strengths were gradually distinguished, and they entered a state of fatigue.
A long alarm rang in the air above the exam area.
"Releasing the second batch of monsters!"
A pipe buried in the depths of Dawn Machine Factory slowly opened up, and a large batch of hungry monsters who had been imprisoned for a few days rushed out.
They were thin and looked like small black panthers. Their eyes were green, and their vertical pupils shone with a dark light in the dark, like those of venomous snakes.
They were completely black, and they walked silently like drifting ghosts. Their sharp fangs and claws did not hide how dangerous they were.
They were Illusion Cats, the kings of small feline-type monsters who were skilled in speed and hiding themselves.
Illusion Cats were the Rapid Biting Rats' mortal enemies. When their presences spread out, the previously restless Rapid Biting Rats instantly shuddered. Some of them even peed their pants in fear.
And Illusion Cats had a lot of food to hunt, so they were usually not willing to provoke fully armed humans.
Of course, if they ran into humans provoking them, they would not hold back.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Soon, some examinees discovered the Illusion Cats. Their sabers and claws intersected with each other, and a bloody fight broke out.
The Illusion Cats' attack was more than ten times stronger than the Rapid Biting Rats', and someone was immediately injured.
Most of the examinees gritted their teeth and persevered, but some of them lost a lot of blood, and their physiological parameters dropped drastically.
They were immediately locked down by the invigilators and brought out of the exam area, ending their practical test.
Meng Chao opened his eyes in the dark.
"Perfect timing!"
He had smeared the Rapid Biting Rat's blood on his body, and it released a pungent smell that attracted the Illusion Cats' attention.
The three Illusion Cats were like three weightless ghosts. They jumped up from the front and back at the same time.
Meng Chao curled up and stuck close to the ground. His muscles trembled, and as if he was lying on invisible waves, he moved five meters horizontally.
He casually swung his saber and struck the Illusion Cats at lightning speed.
