Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1236.5- Rats also have technology? (2)

There were two dead rats.

Everyone was an experienced warrior in the apocalypse and saw the problem immediately.

“Yi, new type? This one is pregnant?”

Young Master Yun got close and confirmed that one was a species he had never seen before. He had seen the other before; it was known as “Clam Head.” Its back had thick fur that could be fired to hurt people.

Liu Zhenghong brought a few researchers over. Some people had already informed them.

Liu Zhenghong took over the two level-four rats to study. Ye Zhongming then looked at Captain Liang and the others.

“Boss, this is what happened. Captain Liang and we discussed and planned to do some third stage works, which were underground defenses, to prevent lifeforms from coming from below.”

The person rubbed his hands, “After digging down slightly, a part collapsed to reveal this hole. We also heard some cries. Gan Lan and Mei Na were sharp and saw some mutated rats.”

“Sister Hong informed us that we must inform her regarding any mutated lifeform in the territory. So we sent people over. While waiting for Sister Hong, Gan Lan and Mei Na went down, and you saw the rest. As for what happened… I think the rats in Ying City dug here. These fellows don’t have any good intentions.”

Many Cloud Peak people frowned.
To be honest, although Cloud Peak suffered losses in the Secret Ream, they battled the level nine Saint Father. They faced the orderly and strong Saint Light Hall, and their morale was at a peak.

They didn’t even fear a level nine and Saint Light Hall, so why would they care about small rats? So when they heard that this bunch had evil thoughts toward Cloud Peak, their killing intent surged. Many people looked at the black hole. They wanted to head down. It would be good if they bumped into the rats and killed them.

Ye Zhongming was surprised. He purposely allowed them to live. The reason was that they were hard to exterminate. A bigger reason was that he wanted to leave some things for Cloud Peak and Ying City to hunt. If not, the hunting ground being too far away would cause many problems. When the enemy surrounds them, people might utilise this point.

But if the rats were digging toward Cloud Peak, what for? Attack Cloud Peak?

Even Ye Zhongming felt like the rats were crazy. What level was the Rat King now? It should be level seven. Ye Zhongming could kill it ten times with one hand, so what gave it confidence?

Seemed like he had to teach these fellows a lesson. Ye Zhongming thought about it and had a rough plan.

But Liu Zhenghong stopped him.

“Little Ye, come.”

Everyone turned their heads with a weird expression. They resisted the urge to laugh. They didn’t want to offend anyone.

Ye Zhongming rolled his eyes. He had opposed that greeting many times, but she didn’t care, so there was nothing he could do.

“Sister Hong, why did you come out?”

Liu Zhenghong signaled to her subordinate, who took out a bottle of water and poured it toward her hand. She washed and said, “All of you guessed wrongly; these rats aren’t attacking Cloud Peak.”

Everyone didn’t understand and waited for her to explain.

“If you are rats and want to attack Cloud Peak, what would you do after digging the holes?”

Facing Liu Zhenghong’s question, everyone didn’t know whether or not to laugh or cry. But they didn’t care. They thought about it and gave different replies.

“Should you dig directly toward the target if you want to dig? At most, you would just dig a lot of tunnels towards it.”

Everyone didn’t understand what she was saying and just nodded.

“But the tunnels aren’t like this. They dug many more giant holes.” Gan Lan described the situation she saw.

“En.” She flung the water aside. “If this were the only situation, then I might not be sure. But, I dissected the pregnant mutated rat and noticed a problem. These rats are actually evolving in a direction and want to make their next generation stronger! They try to inherit the strengths of the last generation and not the weaknesses!”

Ye Zhongming was stunned, “The rats are using this as their testing ground?”

“More accurately, it is a safe house. They are using Cloud Peak to protect them.”

Everyone was impressed. They didn’t expect the rats to be so scheming. They knew that it was safe under a big tree. They moved their nursery beside Cloud Peak to protect themselves.

“They are so smart? Controlling evolution seems like a science. How did they do it?”

Ye Zhongming didn’t understand. Even if the mutated rats became smarter, they couldn’t grasp technology. They shouldn’t be able to make a lab, too, right? How did they control their evolution direction?

Liu Zhenghong thought about it, “I have thought of a few possibilities, one of which is that living beings adapt to their environments. But these only happen under coincidental situations. It is impossible for them to happen together, so… I am not sure.”

Everyone was confused and didn’t know what to do.

At that moment, a high-level evolved looked at the hole and sensed a strong aura approaching.
