In the nick of time, an invisible force suddenly descended upon them.
The mutated rats that pounced over seemed to have crashed into an invisible wall. They all bounced back and fell to the ground.
None of them could truly threaten the super combatants.
Everyone reloaded their magazines as fast as they could and started firing at the rats.
The invisible barrier then disappeared.
Air Wall!
Yue Heng, who was about to make a move, was somewhat surprised.
Air control was a very rare superpower.
In his previous life, he had only seen two superhumans who had this ability.
He did not expect that there would be a superhuman in his team who had awakened the same superpower.
However, this person's strength was much weaker than Yue Heng's. One must know that air control was very powerful, especially in such an enclosed environment. It was most effective.
Air Wall was one of the most basic air control abilities.
Even so, Yue Heng felt that his temporary teammates would not be a burden.
With this person around, the rats behind Yue Heng could not break through the defense of the super combatants.
As for Yue Heng's front …
No matter how many mutated rats came, they would all die. Yue Heng reloaded several times faster than the others. Not only was his firepower continuous and ferocious, but his accuracy was also very high.
In just a few minutes, there was a thick pile of mutated rat corpses on the ground in front of him.
A nauseating smell of blood floated in the air!
At the beginning, Captain Duan helped Yue Heng to deal with these mutated rats.
Then, he realized that his bullets either missed or hit the corpses. His killing efficiency was very low.
Therefore, he turned around to support his teammates.
This battle lasted for more than ten minutes. The rats that had suffered heavy casualties seemed to have regained some rationality. They abandoned the hundreds of corpses of their comrades and fled in all directions.
"F * ck!"
The super combatants heaved a sigh of relief.
Although they were superhumans and had some combat experience, they had never experienced such an intense battle before.
However, he had never experienced such an intense battle before. Just now, his nerves had been stretched to the extreme. Now that he had suddenly relaxed, his entire body felt like it was about to collapse.
Yue Heng said, "Rest here for five minutes."
Supers were not superhumans with unlimited stamina and energy. They also needed to adjust and recover.
Everyone rested for a while before following Yue Heng to continue their exploration.
Captain Duan quickened his pace to catch up with Yue Heng and said in a deep voice, "We don't have much ammunition left."
The main reason was that the ammunition consumption was too high, and each super combatant only had a small number of magazines. If the same battle happened again, it would be very difficult for them to persevere.
"Yes."
Yue Heng nodded. "We're almost there."
Previously, when he was exploring the sewers alone, he had released mechanical beetles to act as scouting eyes.
He had been dividing his attention to control the situation.
Just now, by tracking a group of fleeing rats, Yue Heng had locked onto the location of their nest!
After walking for some distance in the dark underground tunnel, he led his team members into a fork in the road.
After walking for another few hundred meters, the road ahead suddenly opened up!
"Ah?"
Someone exclaimed.
What appeared in front of everyone was a very large underground space.
This place was several hundred square meters in size and about six to seven meters in height. The four walls were bumpy, mixed with mud and rocks, and densely packed with holes.
In the middle of this underground space was a tall mountain of bones.
It was made up of countless bones of various sizes, stacked layer by layer to form a pyramid structure. Under the illumination of the lights, it was eerily white.
There were even a few human skulls among them!
Squeak squeak squeak!
Just as the super combatants were observing the underground space, mutated rats poked their heads out of the holes in the wall.
They stared at the 'invaders', their scarlet eyes filled with bloodthirsty madness and ruthlessness!
Without a doubt, this was the nest of mutated rats that the Hongzhou Otherworldly Administration wanted to excavate.
"Prepare for battle!"
Yue Heng raised his assault rifle, aimed at a mutated rat, and pulled the trigger.
Da da!
The target's head exploded with a burst of gunfire.
Yue Heng's gunshot seemed to be the signal for battle, and the mutated rats' nest instantly exploded.
Hundreds and thousands of mutated rats crawled out of the holes in the wall and rushed toward Yue Heng and the others like a tide. They looked like they would not stop until they were torn to pieces.
"Grenades!"
Following Yue Heng's order, grenades were thrown one after another.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Shrapnel flew in the mutated rats' nest, and the shockwave from the explosion sent many mutated rats flying, slamming them against the wall.
The super combatants of the Hongzhou Otherworldly Administration were equipped according to the elite special forces. The individual weapon systems were all active equipment, and the quality, performance, and power were all first-class standards.
The swarming rats were instantly killed by the explosions.
Of course, the shrapnel did not differentiate between friend and foe, but all the shrapnel flying toward Yue Heng and the others were blocked by the air wall.
Yue Heng could not help but look at the team member who had awakened the ability to control air.
The other party was in his twenties and had an ordinary appearance. He gave people the impression that he was a very inconspicuous person.
However, his performance in the battle made people have a whole new level of respect for him!
Whoosh ~
At this time, because of the impact of the explosion, the mountain of bones piled on the ground collapsed.
Accompanied by the flying bone dust, a giant rat the size of a calf suddenly appeared.
Other than its size, this giant rat did not look much different from an ordinary mutated rat. However, its muscles were bulging, and its skin was covered with needle-like hair.
Rat King!?
Seeing this big guy, several super combatants immediately turned their muzzles and fired at it.
As a result, when the rifle bullets hit the giant rat's body, sparks flew from the collision of metal.
The defense of the hair on its body was so high that it was completely beyond everyone's imagination. It was comparable to metal armor!
They could not hurt the Rat King at all.
The giant rat was enraged. It shook its fat body violently, and the bristles on its body stood up.
In the next second, hundreds of bristles left the Rat King's body and shot toward Yue Heng and the others like arrows released from a bow. It was a terrifying sight to behold!
The team member who had awakened the ability to control air immediately stepped forward, raised his hands, and blocked in front of everyone.
A strengthened air wall instantly appeared!
Poof! Poof! Poof!
The bristles shot by the Rat King hit the air wall, and after a delay of only 0.01 seconds, they immediately broke through!
The team member turned pale with fright.
He could almost see himself being shot into a sieve.
However, at this time, a hand was placed on his shoulder like lightning.
The next moment, he exchanged positions with Yue Heng!
