"What, he's the Fourth Elder's new disciple, the one who broke Brother Zheng's record, Du Feng?"
Only after being reminded by someone else did everyone come to their senses. Although they did not know Du Feng, they had heard of his name. He was ranked second on the first floor of the sword pagoda, surpassing Zheng Kenan who was originally ranked second. Who knew about this? With such a result, it meant that he had earned a lot of contribution points. Why would he accept a mission to kill rats?
"Do you think his warbeast is a cat that likes to catch rats?"
"Yes, that's possible. Otherwise, why would he accept such a mission? Isn't it embarrassing?"
Everyone gathered together to discuss. They felt that it was strange for Du Feng to accept this mission. As the direct disciple of the Fourth Elder, he could earn a hundred contribution points a year without doing anything. Moreover, he had challenged the sword pagoda. Defeating a swordsman on the first floor could earn five contribution points. Defeating a swordsman on the second floor could earn ten contribution points.
Killing a mouse only earned him one contribution point, and he even had to go through so much trouble to crawl through a mouse hole. Just what was he thinking?
Everyone could not understand. They could only think that Du Feng had a hobby of catching rats.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Have you seen a cat warbeast before?"
Frankly speaking, cat warbeasts were very rare. Although tigers and lions were felines, they had never seen a pure cat warbeast. Du Feng had been in the lower realm for so many years, but he had never seen anyone with a Black Cat, White Cat or Thunderbolt Cat.
Du Feng did not care about what others thought. After leaving the mountain gate, he went to the back of the mountain. Why didn't he go to the back of the mountain directly? The reason was simple. It was too far and troublesome. There were many monsters in the back of the mountain and many of them were not low level monsters. As long as he left the protective range of the formation, he would be attacked by the monsters.
It was better to go to the back of the mountain from the foot of the mountain and find the rat holes. After leaving the Yuxian Sect for a distance, Du Feng summoned Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei's nose was very good. He immediately made a judgment after sniffing, "It's not far ahead. There's a bunch of rats."
Du Feng believed that Xiao Hei's judgment would not be wrong, so he jumped onto its back. At this moment, Xiao Hei was neither too big nor too small. His size was similar to that of a male lion. Although it could become as big as a house, it was not flexible. With its current size, it was just right for Du Feng to ride on it without affecting its agility.
"Ji ji ji …"
Soon, Du Feng also heard the sound of a group of mice chattering, as if they were fiercely arguing about something. Interesting. Could it be that it was a coincidence that he ran into a meeting of mice?
Ah! When Du Feng rushed to the front, he was a little dumbfounded, because a group of mice was surrounding a porcupine, continuously attacking it. This porcupine was not small, and it was covered with hard thorns. Each strand was like a thin sword, covering his entire body.
Its sharp mouth protruded forward, and it kept moving its body to attack the mouse. But the group of mice was very flexible. They kept circling around it, but they did not rush up.
Originally, Du Feng wanted to rush up and kill a group of mice in one breath. But now he had a concept, and he wanted to see how the porcupine fought with the mice. In theory, porcupines were vegetarians, but they would also eat meat when they were hungry.
On the other hand, the mice could not stand the cold. Not only did they eat all kinds of nuts, but they also ate small insects. They even came out in groups to hunt large monsters. In the case of the same level, the mice were originally no match for the porcupine. After all, the porcupine was larger, and it had thorns on its body.
But this group of mice was different. They were obviously battle-hardened. In the process of circling, they constantly attacked the porcupine's hind legs. However, the porcupine's hind legs were the most clumsy, and they were exposed from time to time in the process of moving. After a few times, one of its hind legs was bitten and bleeding.
"Shh …"
Du Feng asked Xiao Hei to restrain his breath and not rush to attack. He was observing the mice's fighting style to sum up his experience.
The porcupine was obviously bitten, and it went crazy and chased the mice, but the mice were still circling. Of course, the porcupine was not stupid. It suddenly stopped circling, turned around, and shook its head. Just in time, it bit the rat that had injured its leg.
After all, it had a big advantage in size. It wanted to kill the mouse in one bite and tear it to pieces. In this way, it deterred the other mice.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak …"
The mice were also angered. They were not as timid as imagined, and they did not run away. Instead, they rushed up together. They hit the porcupine's body fiercely from the side. As soon as they rushed up, the few in the front row were pierced by the hard thorns. Dark red blood dripped from their bodies, and they looked quite miserable.
After being pierced, the mice did not die immediately, but kept twitching there. The porcupine was stained with blood, and there were also several mice's bodies skewered on it, making it look even more ferocious.
Just when Du Feng thought that the mice would escape this time, he did not expect that they would rush up again. This batch was still so brave, and they hit the same side of the porcupine. The result was still the same, and they were pierced by the hard thorns again. However, because the first batch of mice were skewered on the thorns, they were only half pierced.
It was also very painful to be half pierced. This batch of mice was in pain, and they were screaming, but they still persisted. This was because the third batch of mice rushed up in the same way. This time, there was no suspense, and they knocked the porcupine over. Because its hard thorns had been pierced by the first two batches of mice, it did not have any lethality.
Once the porcupine was knocked over, its tender abdomen was exposed to the top. This time, it suffered a disaster. All the mice rushed up and crazily bit its abdomen. After a while, the porcupine's abdomen was pierced, and its intestines were pulled out. During this process, it did not die, and kept struggling with its four legs facing the sky. It was even more miserable than the mice that were pierced just now.
However, struggling was useless, because there were too many mice, and it was soon bitten to death. What was interesting was that these mice actually pulled their injured companions off the hard thorns. Those mice that were already half-dead, after drinking the porcupine's blood and eating the porcupine's internal organs, were actually alive and kicking.
Hiss … What a strong vitality. Du Feng looked at it and felt a headache. It seemed that this group of mice was more difficult to deal with than he imagined.
Fortunately, he observed for a while. If he acted rashly, it would not be good. In the process of his observation, the group of mice had already eaten up the porcupine's internal organs. What was interesting was that they did not eat a lot of the thicker meat, but dragged the porcupine's body to one place.
