The Rats' Hierarchy

The eight intestines were waving like the chains of hell used to hook souls.

There was a sharp weapon on each of the intestines, harvesting the mutated rats in the surroundings.

In just a few minutes after he had started fighting with the rats, almost 20 rat carcasses were lying beneath Luo Fan.

At this moment, Luo Fan could not help but be glad that this passageway was narrow enough such that he faced at most four or five rats in one go.

His eight intestines and three spiked tails could completely resist such a number.

However, at this moment, he was thinking about something else, and that was whether he had underestimated the intelligence of mutated creatures.

"It is very likely that while the living creature was mutating, its brain development was also increasing, or rather, the brain was also mutating."

As Luo Fan was thinking about this, he suddenly thought of something else.

"It is very likely that living creatures evolve their brains as they evolve, just like me. Some of the cells in my eyeball have upgraded to level-3 cells. Currently, I can clearly sense that I can disperse more energy, and I can even multitask."

The eight intestines were the best evidence that Luo Fan was multitasking.

A normal person would run off course when drawing a circle with one hand and a square with the other.

However, with Luo Fan's eight intestines, he was able to carry out all kinds of difficult movements. He could really command them with ease. He even had the mental faculty to consider these issues now.

This was enough to show that as living creatures evolved, their intelligence was also improving.

"In other words, intelligence will no longer be an ability that is exclusive to humans."

Luo Fan suddenly felt sad. This meant that the extraordinary status of mankind was slowly being leveled with the wild beasts.

...

The fruit knife had split the head of the last giant rat, and Luo Fan stopped.

All the rats that had come here had died here except for that large silver rat.

That rat was too cunning. It knew that it could not defeat him, and it actually ran. It even let the ordinary mutated rats around help him take cover.

There was a large number of rats lying around. At a glance, there were more than 40 of them. It was really terrifying.

But that was not how Luo Fan felt. He just wanted to finally have food, have bio-energy.

The power of level-3 cells fascinated him. Cells of this level had even touched the realm of the supernatural.

"However, why do I have a bad feeling? All the rats here have clearly been killed by me."

Luo Fan thought gloomily but could not think of a reason.

Then, his eight intestines started to explore the surroundings and absorb the rat carcasses in the surroundings.

[Absorbing bio-energy, absorbed 0.056 milligrams]

[Absorbing bio-energy, absorbed 0.047 milligrams]

Luo Fan's intestinal absorption rate was getting faster. Each time, they could absorb several times more than before.

This was all because he had evolved the intestines.

A claw-shaped mouthpiece was more suitable for absorbing such an intact rat carcass.

At this moment, the eight intestines had all extended out and were grabbing at the carcasses.

Like a monster eating, they bit the carcasses of the rats, one bite at a time, and then swallowed the meat that had been bitten off.

It was directly swallowed into his intestines where it was digested.

The only difference was that a monster ate meat with its head, while the eight intestines were eating meat with their claw-like organs.

It was as if eight monster claws were gnawing these rat carcasses, and it looked extremely weird.

After absorbing for a while, Luo Fan suddenly felt the ground tremble.

"Are these rats?"

Instantly, he determined the source of the vibration.

"There are still rats in the rat hole. I have not exterminated all of them, and there are still so many!"

Luo Fan was a little surprised. From the vibrations, there were definitely many rats heading here.

"Why are there so many rats coming here?"

Suddenly, Luo Fan thought of a possibility.

He felt that he had not really recognized the intelligence of these mutant creatures. They also had very high intelligence.

"Perhaps these are the reinforcements brought over by that silver rat which had fled."

Luo Fan felt that this conjecture was unrealistic, but he could not help thinking in this direction. Could it be that rats would also take revenge?

Soon, the pack of rats appeared before Luo Fan.

And, the appearance of the large, silver rat with blood at the corner of its mouth once again confirmed Luo Fan's suspicion.

Luo Fan's eyeball looked at the rat and was suddenly stunned.

What was that gaze? Hatred?

Luo Fan found this funny. He could actually read emotions through the eyes of a rat?

How ridiculous.

Then, the surrounding rats pounced on Luo Fan.

This time, there were many rats, so Luo Fan stopped thinking about anything else and focused on the battle.

The eight intestines were extremely agile. They kept dodging the bites of the rats, and at the same time, they stabbed the rats which pounced on them.

The surrounding rats could not do anything to Luo Fan. His eight intestines protected his eyeball securely.

No one was able to break through.

At this moment, four silver lights suddenly appeared among the pack of rats.

It was that kind of large silver rat. However, four of them had appeared together at this moment.

And, those four rats stood behind the pack of rats and watched everything coldly.

"Could there be a hierarchy in the pack of rats?"

At this moment, Luo Fan was just making things up instead of thinking. The royalty from the rat clan had asked their subordinates to go forward and risk their lives first.

"There's actually a hierarchy here. Could there be an underground rat kingdom? Could there also be a rat king?"

...

Another dozen more rats had died, and there were even more carcasses on the ground.

These carcasses also hindered the rats that wanted to attack Luo Fan. They were sort of a barrier for Luo Fan.

These ordinary mutant rats were no threat to Luo Fan.

The few silver rats seemed to have also realized this. At this moment, under the cry of one of the silver rats, the ordinary rats stopped moving forward.

Then, the four large silver rats walked forward and locked their sinister gazes on Luo Fan.

They had never seen a creature like Luo Fan, nor did they know what it was. But Luo Fan smelled like food, which fascinated them.

"The underlings couldn't do it. so the bosses are taking over."

Four large silver rats pounced on Luo Fan simultaneously.

Before Luo Fan could slash down, two of them had already scurried past him on both sides and gone behind him.

The remaining two were nimble and quickly retreated, pulling away from Luo Fan.

"So smart?"

Luo Fan was somewhat surprised. This way, his attack would not be able to pose a threat to the two rats in front.

And taking advantage of this opportunity, the two silver rats behind him could tear at Luo Fan's body.

When he wanted to deal with the rats behind him, the two silver rats in front would bite him.

Smart strategy.

At this moment, Luo Fan could not help but feel troubled.

He turned his body slightly and let his eyeball lean against the wall. As such, the four rats appeared inside his field of vision.

Luo Fan's intestines tangled with these four rats.

It had to be said that these silver rats were really something. They were indeed more difficult to deal with than those ordinary mutant rats.

Luo Fan gradually fell into a disadvantageous position. It would probably not be long before he would be defeated by these rats.

But at this moment, one of the silver rats seemed to have noticed Luo Fan's weakness. It pounced on him and bit down on one of his intestines.

Luo Fan sneered in his heart. "I'm waiting for this chance."

His other intestine, which was holding a stick, was also raised, and it struck down with the stick.

However, it was not hitting the rat that had bitten on the intestine, but the rat that was about to jump up from the other side.

Luo Fan did not slow down. His two knives slashed down, slicing to death the rat, which was groggy from the beating.

Of the four rats, only three were left.

Luo Fan used his intestines to seduce one rat, causing a deception, and then killed another with a blow.

With only three remaining, it became much easier. Luo Fan fought with them for a while longer, and then killed two of the three rats, and the remaining one fled.

One of his intestines had also been completely severed, leaving only half of it.
