“What is it?”
Luo Fan instantly became alert and looked around.
At this moment, a large black shadow darted out from under the shelf.
“Eh?”
Luo Fan had evolved into an eyeball, so his ability to capture things was naturally extremely powerful.
In that instant, he saw clearly that the creature which had fled was a rat.
However…
“This is the first time I’ve seen such a huge rat.”
Luo Fan was a little surprised because the big rat was the same size as a bamboo rat, or a cat.
Luo Fan had seen bamboo rats on TV.
“Could it be a bamboo rat?”
Luo Fan was puzzled. Otherwise, it would not be possible to have a rat of such a big size.
At this moment, another rat scurried out.
Luo Fan turned his head and instantly captured the place where the rat had scurried out.
He thought for a moment and started crawling in that direction.
Now, Luo Fan suspected that there was a rat hole in this store, and that the holes in the foam boxes were likely caused by the rats.
He advanced carefully, his spiked tails raised high, ready to attack.
If Luo Fan were a human, he would naturally not be afraid of these rats, even those as large as cats.
However, he was not big now. He was only the size of a cat, about the same size as the rat.
Therefore, when faced with a creature of about the same weight as him, Luo Fan still took extra care.
He walked forward step by step, turned a corner, and crawled under the shelf to find the place where the rat had scurried out.
A hole half a meter in height was half embedded in the ground. Looking inside, it was pitch-black.
“What a huge rat hole!”
Luo Fan stopped in his tracks, not daring to go closer.
The main reason was that these huge rats might be bamboo rats. There was another possibility, which was that they were supernatural creatures, those that also carried bio-energy.
Otherwise, they would not have grown so huge and survived the fire.
“To prove whether these rats are supernatural creatures, I’ll just have to catch one.”
Luo Fan was about the same size as the rat. He was not sure if he could defeat these rats.
“I can design a trap. I may not be a human body, but I still have human intelligence.”
He looked at the surrounding scene and thought, “The food in this store has obviously been carried away by the rats, and these rats that have scurried out are probably also searching for any remnant food not carried away, I can use food to lure the rats.”
Then, Luo Fan started to act.
He wanted the carcasses of the rats to prove whether they were supernatural creatures.
What if these rats were supernatural creatures? It would be a good thing since Luo Fan was currently lacking in bio-energy.
If they were not supernatural creatures, Luo Fan would not be afraid of these rats. He could also treat them as nutrients.
“It’s easy to find boxes that still contain fish and prawns from these hundreds of foam boxes. I just need to see if there are any holes.”
With this thought in mind, Luo Fan immediately started to search.
He checked them one by one and eliminated all those with holes.
All Luo Fan could search were the foam boxes on the first level.
He could not go up high as his physical condition did not allow him to.
For the boxes on the floor, he eliminated them one by one.
His hard work paid off. After a series of searches by Luo Fan, he finally found a box containing food.
“Hmm… Next, I’ll have to hide and kill them with my bone spikes.”
Luo Fan was not going to use foreign objects as traps. He was going to use himself as one.
This was because currently, Luo Fan did not have the conditions to create such rat traps.
Moreover, even if he could create a trap to catch ordinary rats, would he be able to catch such supernatural rats?
Luo Fan looked around and thought for a moment.
Then, he opened the foam box.
His entire eyeball crawled into the pile of rotten meat.
At the same time, he also took the lid off the foam box and let the smell of the rotten meat diffuse.
He could not smell it without olfactory organs, but those rats could.
Luo Fan planned to use the odors to attract the mutant rats.
The thermal box was opened, and the smell of rotten meat drifted out.
To a person’s sense of smell, this was an unbearable rotten stench, but to a rat, it was the smell of food.
The big rat had come after the smell. As expected, it appeared near the thermal box.
This was a large rat, almost 30 centimeters long (not counting its tail), meaty.
However, the rat bared its sharp fangs and dark green eyes, making it look not so cute.
Luo Fan was in the box. He had sensed life running nearby.
“If I’m not wrong, it should be that rat. From the sound, there should only be one.”
Luo Fan was also more afraid of attracting two rats at once. If that happened, he could be easily besieged and killed by the two rats.
However, if there was only one, Luo Fan was still somewhat confident.
His three spiked tails had already laid in ambush quietly.
At this moment, the big rat also understood and was gradually approaching the thermal box.
It got close to the thermal box.
It started to make contact with the thermal box and climbed in.
“Now!”
Luo Fan instantly made a decision.
At this moment, the rat had already crawled in.
The moment the rat’s head entered the thermal box, the three spiked tails were activated.
One aimed at the mouth, and the other two at the eyes.
In an instant, the rat was impaled.
The outcome was decided in an instant.
Luo Fan’s ambush had caught the rat off guard. It was killed when its eyes were full of joy from finding food.
The three spiked tails were extremely powerful, and the rat’s fragile eyeballs could not withstand them at all. In an instant, it was pierced through to the brain.
The rat’s brain was damaged, so it naturally died.
It seemed that this rat was not as powerful as Luo Fan had thought.
Perhaps it was because he was too powerful that these extremely ferocious-looking rats looked like they were made of paper.
“Let me see if there’s bio-energy first.”
Luo Fan had not forgotten why he had killed the rat; it was to determine if it was a mutant rat.
Then, two intestines rolled onto the rat and started to absorb its body.
The flesh and blood on its body were slowly being absorbed into his intestines.
[Absorbing bio-energy, absorbed 0.001 milligrams]
[Absorbing bio-energy, absorbed…]
“This is indeed a mutant rat.”
Although Luo Fan had already speculated this in his heart, he was still a little surprised when it was confirmed.
“In other words, this is a mutant rat hole?”
Luo Fan looked at the half-meter high hole in the corner.
“Rats live in packs.. I wonder if there might be more than one mutant rat here?”
