This was the most terrifying feature of demon rats.
Thankfully, Zhang Tie was in the water. There was still a distance of over 30 m between him and the demon rats, which could not be surpassed by demon rats. However, it became Zhang Tie's greatest reliance for survival.
As Zhang Tie was severely wounded, he could only exert 10% or 20% of his battle strength. In this case, both parties had their own disadvantages.
More and more demon rats scurried into the water from the shore like dumplings being put into boiling water. They widely opened their bloody, brutal eyes and swam towards Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie just stayed on the stone in the water and waved his double-carp swords to kill demon rats before they climbed onto the stone.
At this moment, Zhang Tie could only release a sword light which was less than 2 m in length to protect himself and that rock.
The sharp edges of the double-carp swords helped Zhang Tie a lot at this moment. Although the fur of the demon rats was very smooth, as long as they touched the double-carp swords, their bodies would be split open in a split second without exception.
The casualties of their own kind made the remaining demon rats more restless and crazy. They rushed towards Zhang Tie one after another.
After fighting for 2 hours, the water around the stone had become bloody while the water was covered with demon rats' corpses. Zhang Tie didn't even remember how many demon rats he had killed. He estimated that there were at least 300-400 demon rats.
Zhang Tie was also wounded. His feet were bitten for a few times. His hands, arms and waist were scratched by demon rats' claws, causing some bloody wounds. If not his preliminary recovery body which was slowly recovering his wounds, he would not have stood fighting the demon rats for 2 hours. Even so, after killing 300-400 demon rats, the blades of Zhang Tie's double-carp swords had already shrunk by half. They were only a bit longer than 1 m, which was similar to two common long swords. Zhang Tie could not drive them anymore.
Not knowing when did the demon rats stop attacking, the entire pond was covered with demon rats' corpses.
Panting heavily, Zhang Tie had already knelt down on the stone by one foot. Glaring at the Devil Rats on the shore, he couldn't help but sigh. Normally, even if they had to fight for two days. However, at this moment, Zhang Tie felt very tired. Each time he waved his double-carp swords, his whole body would be exhausted. Especially the back that was injured by Dawson, there was a pain as if it was being torn apart.
After the demon rats stopped their attack, they became a bit quiet. When Zhang Tie thought that he could pass the night in this way, the demon rats suddenly stopped. The demon rats became restless. A slightly smaller demon rat with purple-black fur walked out of the pile of demon rats on the bank and came to the bank as it watched Zhang Tie.
When this devil rat appeared, all the other devil rats in front of it automatically made way for it. Additionally, all the eyes of the devil rats were fixed on it.
Although it was a beast, Zhang Tie could still sense the killing intent in its eyes.
Could it be that this guy is the leader of those devil rats? Zhang Tie wanted to laugh; however, the moment he moved his lips, he found that his mouth was extremely dry...
"Squeak... squeak... squeak..." That demon rat raised its head and squeaked with its hind legs. Closely after that, all the other demon rats squeaked.
Zhang Tie became vigilant at once. 'Apparently, these demon rats are not singing for me. I've killed so many of their own kind. It's said that this living being is very vengeful. Do they have other tricks that they haven't used?'
Some demon rats darted out as fast as lightning bolts once again. When Zhang Tie thought that these demon rats would fall into the water and swim towards him like before, he was startled by them once again. The demon rats landed on the corpses of those demon rats floating on the water. After stomping on their companions' corpses, they had darted out as fast as lightning bolts once again. After rising and falling 3-4 times, they had arrived in front of Zhang Tie.
"F * ck! Leaping battle skill... "Zhang Tie swore loudly as he cut some demon rats into pieces with his double-carp swords in the air.
More and more demon rats started to adopt leaping battle skill and rushed towards Zhang Tie without touching water. Compared to swimming just now, their attacking speed was many times faster.
Zhang Tie knew that he had to risk his life. These demon rats were too smart. Perhaps they had been thinking about this since the first batch of demon rats swam towards him. If they couldn't kill him in the first batch, they would step on their companions' corpses and kill him in the second batch.
Only after 10 minutes, although Zhang Tie had killed dozens more demon rats, he had suffered two times more wounds than that 10 minutes ago.
Although there were more and more wounds on Zhang Tie's body, they were all minor wounds which didn't affect his movement. With rich battle experience, Zhang Tie could avoid all the fatal parts of his body which could affect his movement.
With a sharp wind blowing by his ear, Zhang Tie tilted his head and found that there was another scratch on his neck near his shoulder. That shadow moved too fast. If Zhang Tie was not injured, it would be easy for him to deal with it; however, at this moment, that scratch almost cut open the main artery on his neck.
It was that demon rat with black and purple fur. After missing its strike, the demon rat didn't leave; instead, it started to run rapidly on the corpses of the other demon rats as if it was running on the ground. It circled around the stone where Zhang Tie was standing and gazed at Zhang Tie with its bloody eyes as if it was looking for Zhang Tie's loophole and was ready to give Zhang Tie a heavy blow at any time.
'F * ck, is it still a rat? ' Zhang Tie was shocked inside as he saw more and more rats jumping towards him. They were becoming crazier and more and more difficult to deal with. Zhang Tie became furious, 'This father is a living man, how could I be suffocated to death or be killed by a group of rats?
'What to do? What to do? What to do? '
All of a sudden, Zhang Tie's heart pounded as he watched the huge pond in front of him. He almost slapped his own head, 'Stupid! Could it be that after being beaten by that bastard Dawson, his brain had become muddled? Although he had just come out of the water, he could still continue to swim. He had come up to recuperate, but now he could go down to survive. 'These demon rats could attack me by leapfrog tactics. ' 'I could directly become a frog. Would they bite my butt? '
Watching the pond being covered with dead demon rats, Zhang Tie forcefully swung his two swords and killed two more demon rats while bearing the disgusting feeling. After that, he jumped into the pond without any hesitation.
Zhang Tie's action was definitely out of the imagination of all the demon rats. In a split second. All the demon rats shrieked at once.
When the black-purple demon rat rushed to his front and prepared to attack him again, Zhang Tie slightly moved his body and dived 6-7 m deep in the water. Meanwhile, he slightly waved his hands and suspended in the water.
Zhang Tie raised his head and watched those blurred shadows on the water. Many demon rats jumped into the water and started to struggle on the water surface. They wanted to find Zhang Tie. Some demon rats even put their heads into the water. Watching Zhang Tie who was a few meters away, they widely opened their bloody eyes and wanted to dive down at their full efforts. Pitifully, no matter how they waved their claws and wagged their tails, they could only dive less than half a meter. They could never reach Zhang Tie.
At the sight of this, Zhang Tie finally revealed a smile in the water. It was as he had imagined. Among all the animals with claws, most of them could swim; however, very few of them could dive. Besides knowing that some bears living in cold areas could dive for fish, Zhang Tie had not heard about others. So could demon rats. They could swim; however, they could not dive. Wasn't this the reason why humans, the most intelligent of all creatures, were more awesome than a mouse?
Watching so many dead demon rats floating on the water surface, Zhang Tie really felt disgusted; especially the bloody smell of those demon rats. Occasionally, he could smell the intestines and organs of those dead demon rats floating in the water, which was more disgusting.
Zhang Tie felt like he was floating in a pot of soup which was full of rats...
However, no matter how disgusting he was, he had to survive himself at this moment. Everything else was secondary.
Watching those demon rats whose bellies were facing him, Zhang Tie's smile turned into a sneer. He silently swam over there and cut a deep wound from its neck to its belly with the blades of his double-carp swords. After that, he swam away rapidly...
In only a few minutes, Zhang Tie had killed over 10 more demon rats in the same way. However, none of them could touch him at all.
Zhang Tie felt pretty good. 'It's always good to have more skills. The swimming skill that I've cultivated in Hidden Dragon Island finally saved my life at this moment. Additionally, it helped me turn the tide in a desperate situation.'
Although it's a bit disgusting and wretched to attack a mouse... oh, no, it should be a demon rat. Although it's a bit disgusting and wretched, it's a very effective tactic. As the old saying goes, it's a waste for a teenager to be wretched. '
After those demon rats swam back to the bank, Zhang Tie finally found a chance to expose his head above the water surface to take a breath. The two parties gazed at each other.
The demon rats rushed towards him once again and jumped into the water. Zhang Tie then dove down and continued to cut open their bellies.
After a few times, there were more demon rats' corpses on the water surface. When Zhang Tie raised his head and started to take a breath, all the demon rats on the bank of the pond had disappeared. The demon rats probably knew that they could not gain any advantage from Zhang Tie if they continued to fight like this; neither could they eat Zhang Tie up. Therefore, they directly left...
Zhang Tie climbed back onto the stone and lay down heavily. Feeling fatigued both physically and mentally, Zhang Tie tilted his head and watched the pond being covered with demon rats' corpses. He suddenly felt like vomiting; however, he didn't even have the strength to vomit at this moment...
...
Unconsciously, the narrow skyline above his head had turned a bit white. Lying on the stone, Zhang Tie also felt a shock in his mind sea. At the same time, his "bumpy" spiritual energy gradually recovered its original state like the water surface after a storm.
Zhang Tie attempted to lock that marvelous arched door in his mind sea using his spiritual energy. The moment he locked it, Zhang Tie entered Castle of Black Iron without demur.
"Castle Lord..." Zhang Tie saw Heller. Heller was watching him with a solemn look as if he had long been waiting for Zhang Tie.
"I know what you want to say. I just want to take a rest. You can talk about it when I wake up!" Zhang Tie waved his hand tiredly.
Heller remained silent as he bowed towards Zhang Tie while stroking his chest. After that, he left.
Zhang Tie then gulped down a large vial of almost 200ml all-purpose medicament. After that, he took off his wet clothes and washed himself. After that, he went back to his room and covered his quilt before falling asleep.
The all-purpose medicament soon took effect on Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie soon felt a warm and agile heat flow inside his body. Only after a few minutes, Zhang Tie felt sleepy in spring as his heart stopped pounding and his brain didn't feel hot. He had a sound dream...
...
Outside the room, Heller was standing under the high platform where the small tree was. Watching the sky in Castle of Black Iron which started to turn bright at the same time as that of the outside, Heller shook his head with a bitter smile as he muttered, "What a reckless Castle Lord! Iron-blood Fist is a low-level battle skill which was developed by sorting out and excavating the knowledge left by humans in the Bronze Age tens of thousands of years ago. The Bronze Age was an age where there were no real powerhouses and heroes; instead, there were only a bunch of mediocre people who looked up and peeped at the glory of gods... "After saying this, Heller pulled his hands towards the sky. Like drawing a curtain, the entire Castle of Black Iron entered the deep darkness once again...
...
At the same time, in a valley 100 miles away from where Zhang Tie was, Dawson, who found that he was already in the same place at daybreak, finally couldn't stand it anymore. He raised his head and screamed loudly. "What a pity! What a pity!"
"Who the f * ck can tell me where the hell is this place, ah..."
Nobody answered Dawson; instead, he attracted a pack of drooling iron-teeth hyenas which were glaring at him...
A huge eagle was hovering in the sky...
