"Speaking of which, there is a legend that a long time ago, a rat that stowed away from a spaceship accidentally landed on Talia, a planet that had just experienced a star-destroying war. The surface of this planet was full of radiation, and it was infected and mutated. While dying in pain, it embarked on the fate of breeding just like the breeding star god in the past, which is why there are so many ratmen on this planet."

"Huh? How is that possible? What kind of rat plague is this?"

Qiong sneered at it.

After all, compared to the breeding star gods that are spread across two-thirds of the galaxy, this mouse only lives on a tiny planet. To say that it is like the breeding star gods is a bit of an exaggeration.

"It's just a legend after all. Maybe it was made up by a fictional historian."

Karami shrugged his shoulders and it seemed that he didn't believe the legend and just told it as a story.

After walking for a long time, they were less than two kilometers away from Leir's marked point.

But it was surprisingly quiet here, as if there were no ratmen at all.

Zhou Xingxing didn't believe it. Since the rat people had occupied the carriages of the Star Train, how could they just abandon them in the wild like that?

It always feels like the calm before the storm.

But the facts forced Zhou Xingxing to believe it.

In a huge cave, a slightly dilapidated Star Train carriage was quietly half buried in the ground.

"Found it! So easy!"

Qiong's heart was filled with joy, and she was so excited at the thought that this journey could finally come to an end.

"Don't worry."

Zhou Xingxing grabbed Qiong's hand, then picked up a few stones and threw them at the carriage.

Dang Dang Dang——

There were several consecutive noises, but nothing happened.

There were no rats or traps.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it. They're just mice after all."

Zhou Xingxing breathed a sigh of relief. The scene he had imagined of countless rat people swarming over as he approached the carriage did not occur.

"No problem?"

Seeing Zhou Xingxing testing for a long time, Qiong asked uncertainly.

"It should be fine, let's take a look together."

As they spoke, the two of them carefully walked to the side of the carriage.

It was not until he touched the train carriage that he felt completely relieved. It seemed that there was indeed no trap. This carriage seemed to have been abandoned by the rat people for a long time.

Perhaps in their eyes, this is just one of the many pieces of garbage on this planet.

"Hey!"

Qiong tried to lift the carriage, but most of it was buried in the soil and could not be lifted at all.

Zhou Xingxing quickly tried to see if he could put it back into his backpack directly, but found that it didn't work either.

Maybe it's because it's a creation of the Star God, or maybe it's simply because this thing is too big.

"Let's try it together."

Zhou Xingxing and Qiong each lifted one head, but they still couldn't lift it, which made people a little confused.

The two of them are quite strong now, are the carriages of the Starry Sky Train that heavy?

"Arnold, can you help me?"

Seeing that he couldn't lift it, Qiong stood up and waved to Arnold.

Arnold nodded and walked forward.

The two were ready to lend a hand, but Arnold just shook his head, apparently indicating that it was not necessary.

The two of them stepped back a few steps in embarrassment, ready to watch Arnold show off quietly.

Arnold grabbed the carriage with both hands. After a while, the surrounding soil began to loosen and the carriage trembled, trying to drill out of the soil.

Just as Arnold suddenly lifted up the carriage, the surrounding ground collapsed without warning, and Arnold fell directly into the hole along with the carriage.

"Arno!"

Zhou Xingxing and Qiong were shocked and quickly ran to the cave to look inside, but they found it was pitch black and could not see anything clearly.

Just when the two were still worried about Arnold, Karami beside them shouted.

"There's an ambush!"

Zhou Xingxing looked back.

Countless red eyes were seen flashing in the cracks of the rock wall, and then they emerged from them, blocking the way for everyone to retreat.

"What a coincidence? Arnold just fell down!"

Qiong frowned as he watched the ratmen pull out their flaming spears. Although he didn't want to fight with these ratmen, it seemed like there was no other way.

"It's not a coincidence. I'm afraid it's a trap set by these ratmen to separate Arnold from us."

Zhou Xingxing also pulled out his flaming gun and stared at the rats.

Karami threw the ammunition box on the ground, then took out a string of grenades from it and stared at the rats with a serious look.

"You guys go down and find Mad Dog Arnold, we'll cover your rear here."

"What did you say?"

Zhou Xingxing was stunned. He didn't expect Karami to say such a thing.

"Don't hesitate. Although you are quite powerful, so many ratmen can drown you. Go and find him. Maybe we can still have a chance to survive."

"You will die!"

Qiong felt a little bit reluctant. Although Karami had come to rob him before, the two sides had indeed cooperated along the way.

"Didn't you hear what I said? We'll all die if we stay here! This happened because I robbed you, so I'll take the blame. We in the Destruction Gang are only after money! We don't kill people!"

Karami didn't look back. He roared, pulled the ring with his mouth and threw the grenade at the rats.

Other members of the Destruction Gang also raised their weapons and began shooting at the ratmen.

"Let's go."

Zhou Xingxing sighed softly, took Qiong's hand and prepared to jump into the pit.

Before leaving, he looked back at Karami.

Although he is not the same kind of person as me, he is indeed a good man.

Take a leap——

The two of them just felt that this dark tunnel had no end.

The feeling of weightlessness lasted for nearly half a minute before the two of them vaguely felt the ground below them.

The protective power was activated, and the two men fell heavily on the ground, creating a circular hole nearly half a meter in size.

Even with the power of protection, Zhou Xingxing felt his feet numbing and sore because the hole was too high.

"Is everything okay?"

Zhou Xingxing pulled up Qiong, who couldn't stand steadily due to weak legs, and asked.

"It's okay... it's just too dark here. I thought there would be a train car below, but why is it flat ground?"

Qiong shook his head and then looked around.

Despite the flashes of lances, visibility was still very low.

"Shibao, please help and turn on the lights."

Shibao knew the situation was not good, so he didn't say anything more and turned into light directly.

The two then discovered that there was actually an extremely empty cave underneath, and on the surrounding rock walls there were many oval-shaped houses like honeycombs embedded in the rock walls.

The next second, red lights lit up in all the houses and they looked towards the two people in the middle of the field.

Zhou Xingxing was shocked to realize that these were the ratmen's nests.

Just when the two were ready for battle, these ratmen did not attack, but stared at them quietly.

"What's going on? They're not attacking?"

Qiong felt a little creepy when being stared at, and couldn't help but ask.

"Not sure, stay alert."

Zhou Xingxing brought Qiong with him, and the two of them walked forward cautiously.

The surrounding houses also lit up red as the two walked, as if guiding them forward.

Ahead, there were faint sounds of fighting.

Zhou Xingxing and Qiong looked at each other and both thought it must be Arnold.

So the two of them galloped forward.

The sounds of fighting lasted only a moment, and the two men thought Arnold had resolved the battle.

But when I got closer, I could see clearly that Arnold was actually kneeling on one knee on the ground and seemed to be breathing heavily.

Opposite him, a white mouse the size of a kitten with a faint green light on its body was standing in front of Arnold.

When Zhou Xingxing and Qiong approached, the white mouse tilted its head and looked at them, with a cruel and excited look in its eyes.

(PS: I’m finally going to write about a fight again after a long absence. This time I might write something a little more tragic.)

Chapter 103 The Power of Rat

"Arnold is defeated?"

There was a storm in Qiong's eyes.

I have seen with my own eyes how terrifying Arnold's strength is, but I was actually beaten to my knees by this white mouse in front of me?

Just as Arnold was about to stand up, a black pillar fell down and hit Arnold hard.

Following this pillar, Arnold and the ground collapsed rapidly, and in the end only a circular pit was left.
