These elite rat king’s bodyguards finally reached the area in front of Yue Zhong, and used their sharp claws to chip away at the bone ladder.
The claws of these elite rat king’s bodyguards were extremely sharp, and the white bone ladder could not withstand the continuous attacks of the elite rat king’s bodyguards for long before breaking.
Once the white bone ladder was broken, Yue Zhong and Ji Qing Wu immediately plunged towards the ground.
The 20 elite rat king’s bodyguards were hiding and distributed among the rat tide. They were intently watching the descent of Yue Zhong and Ji Qing Wu. Once these two humans fell into the swarm of rats, they will be surrounded on all sides and be attacked by numerous rats. No matter how powerful Yue Zhong is, being attacked by countless numbers of rats at the same time would definitely finish him off.
Yue Zhong’s eyes turned icy cold, and taking in a deep breathe, he quickly fired another bone spike that stabbed into the head of a normal mutant rat. The force at which the bone spike was fired from allowed it to penetrate through the skull of the mutant rat and continued to penetrate deep into the ground. It quickly extended to become another bone ladder. In this way, both of them were temporary out of danger.
But the elite rat king’s bodyguards who saw this scene immediately rushed towards the new bone ladder and again, used their claws to break down the bone ladder.
This left Yue Zhong with no choice but to continuously shoot out bone spikes using both hands. Thus, he created multiple bone ladders that enabled him to continuously move forward. In the event that one of the bone spikes is broken, it is unlikely to hinder his progress in moving forward. [5]
But for every bone ladder that was shattered, the White Bone armour on Yue Zhong’s body became thinner and thinner. While White Bones has the unique ability freely manipulate bones, these bone were refined from its body, and are not unlimited in number. If the bones were continuously broken, beyond a certain limit, White Bones could no longer creates new bone spikes.
Just before White Bone reached its limit, Yue Zhong finally broke through the rat tide and reached the granary.
The twenty elite rat king’s bodyguards also followed Yue Zhong and was just lurking below the granary.
As mutant rat king saw Yue Zhong approaching it, it immediately jumped down from the granary. It landed on the ground, and the 20 elite rat king’s bodyguards that was already there immediately surrounded it. This party of elite rats then fled.
Meanwhile, the rest of the elite rat king’s bodyguards rushed towards Yue Zhong and Ji Qing Wu.
“It chose to escape?” Yue Zhong spied that the rat king had opted to escape and was greatly surprised. That is a level 43 mutant rat king, and its level was way higher than him! That it did not even attempt to fight and immediately opted to escape is outside of Yue Zhong’s expectations
Although the rat king chose to escape, the 30 elite rat king’s bodyguards and the remaining rat tide continued to surround and rush towards Yue Zhong and Ji Qing Wu from all sides.
Yue Zhong took one look at the endless tide of rats that was rapidly approaching him, and also chose to flee. He extended his right hand and fired a bone shard towards the roof of granary. Then using the extensible bone shard like a retractable rope, he launched himself and Ji Qing Wu to the rooftop of the granary.
The 30 elite rat king’s bodyguards also quickly climbed towards the rooftop after the two intruders. [4]
