Chapter 590: Chapter 80 Enjoying Cooperation with Her

Jack raised an eyebrow, "Are there really such people in this world?"

"Of course! I’ve seen it with my own eyes. He just used that jade flute to play enchanting music. He saved a child who was suffering from a terminal illness," the soldier said with admiration.

Hearing this, Jing Rui stood up from his seat and addressed everyone, "Since that’s the case, let’s hurry to find this person. I’ll lead the team and the weapons and support them right now."

"Have you thought this through, Jing Rui? If the barrier can’t be opened, you’ll be trapped inside with them forever. No matter whether there is danger or not, you won’t be able to come out!" Jack asked.

Jing Rui answered without hesitation, "No matter what you say, I’m going. Now, arrange a plane for me. I need to airdrop at their last known location. And a large number of weapons!"

...

Gu Xiaoxi had heard of barriers before – when she had rescued Little Phoenix, it had been locked inside one.

But the barrier back then was completely different from this one.

The barrier Little Phoenix had been in neither allowed entry nor exit.

This place, however, allowed entry but no exit.

"That’s not right!" Gu Xiaoxi suddenly thought of a problem and said loudly, "If you can’t get out, then why can the Giant Rats leave?"

With her question, everyone was stunned. They had almost let a couple of Giant Rats take advantage of the moment.

"Yeah, why can the Giant Rats get in and out?" Feng Shuo was also particularly puzzled!

It was then that Tang Yisheng suddenly turned to Gu Xiaoxi and said, "Rats are good at digging holes, right? So they dug their way out!"

At this moment, Gu Xiaoxi and the others felt like they had an epiphany and immediately became excited.

"But just because the rats can dig their way out doesn’t mean we can dig our way out," Jing Haoran threw in a dampener from behind. However, he was also speaking the truth.

At that time, Gu Xiaoxi wasn’t thinking about how to get out at all. Instead, she suddenly exclaimed, "I understand now. Why some of the Giant Rats go out and hurt people. Because most of them are confined here, with only some managing to dig their way out. The majority are still inside. Does this mean that if we eliminate all of the Giant Rats here, Yatang City will be safe? Also, the barrier must not be opened before we take care of these Giant Rats."

Thus, it was apparent that the person who had set up the barrier years ago didn’t want these Giant Rats to go out and harm people.

It’s just that nobody had expected, over the years, their numbers had grown so frightfully large.

"What do we do now? We can’t get out, and there are too many Giant Rats here for us to handle. Although we are indeed relaxed now, if they all attack at once, we surely won’t be able to hold them off. If we can’t kill them all in three days and nights, everyone will surely be exhausted. Without food..."

Faced with all these problems, everyone also felt a headache coming on.

"The most critical issue right now is that we can’t send a message out. If people outside don’t know and open the barrier, the consequences are unimaginable!" Kate looked towards the Giant Rats that were constantly leaping around not far away.

No one really knew how many there were in the forest; they were countless.

Kill a group, and another takes its place.

And judging by the trend, there were at least tens of thousands more in the forest.

"We’ve got to find the Rat King!" Gu Xiaoxi felt that these Giant Rats must be controlled by a Rat King. Otherwise, they wouldn’t keep coming in droves, knowing full well it was a suicide mission.

"We need to find the cave!" Kate’s eyes suddenly shone with a smile. She found working with Gu Xiaoxi extremely pleasant.

She was quick-thinking, reacted swiftly, wasn’t easily startled, and, quite frankly, was quite capable.

It made her impossible not to respect!

Feng Shuo also nodded in satisfaction, "In that case, let’s try to find their lair."

"We still need to find a way to suppress this batch of Giant Rats!" Kang Di suggested. If one of them strayed from the group and the Giant Rats launched an attack, wouldn’t the rest be in danger.

Gu Xiaoxi fell silent for a moment before saying, "You stay here, I’ll go explore."

"Can one person manage it?" Kate asked with concern.

Gu Xiaoxi made an OK gesture. Afterward, she leaped onto the treetops again.

In the blink of an eye, she vanished from everyone’s sight.

Kate and Feng Shuo exchanged glances, clearly admiring her courage. A girl, even stronger than men.

Gu Xiaoxi used her qinggong to leap amongst the branches.

Before long, she spotted the people who had fled earlier.

Originally, eighty people had escaped, but now only about forty remained, most of them injured.

Gu Xiaoxi hadn’t expected her group of twenty to hold back the Giant Rats, instead leaving the eighty who fled in danger.

And at this moment, those ragged forty were still unfortunately surrounded by a swarm of Giant Rats.

Just as the Giant Rats were about to attack, Gu Xiaoxi suddenly appeared, swiftly killing the Giant Rats, and then turned to the dozens behind her, "Right now, everyone can’t get out! You all should return to the main group. The captain is there to protect everyone."

"Wasn’t it you who told us to run? You got everyone injured, and now you want us to go back. You’re the one who has killed us all!" Suddenly, someone yelled at Gu Xiaoxi angrily.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi took a sharp breath. Her gaze was cold as she looked at the female soldier, who was obviously making incoherent statements out of fear and panic.

If everyone had stayed together before, twenty people could not have possibly coordinated smoothly.

The Giant Rats would have kept coming one after another. These people with lesser abilities would definitely have been attacked.

They wouldn’t have been able to block the army of Giant Rats, while also having to look after these individuals.

By then, the team would have been in disarray, likely leaving only her own group and Kate’s few people alive.

Their twenty had intercepted the main force of the Giant Rats, letting the eighty escape, with only some stragglers of Giant Rats catching up.

They themselves lacked the ability to even hold off a few Giant Rats, yet had the audacity to blame her.

If they had kept them, it’s unlikely that even forty-plus would have survived.

Gu Xiaoxi remained silent for quite some time. Her heart was agitated by their misunderstanding but also had no intention of getting angry with these people.

Because there was no need!

Right now, she had no time, nor did she want to explain to unreasonable people, she simply said in a detached tone, "If you still want to live, go find the main force. Six o’clock direction, get there on your own."

As she spoke, Gu Xiaoxi killed all the surrounding Giant Rats, and then disappeared into the shrubs.

Just now, she had dropped a drop of blood into the ear of one of the Giant Rats.

As long as she ignited the Fire of the Blazing Sun, she could track that Giant Rat. She hoped to find its lair through it and eradicate them in one fell swoop.

Having said that, Gu Xiaoxi hurried through the underbrush.

Fortunately, the Giant Rat she was tracking hadn’t run to attack Kate and the main force but had headed towards the secluded, deserted forest.

Gu Xiaoxi quickly pursued.

Half an hour later, after running as far as two kilometers, she finally made the Giant Rat stop.

At the same time, Gu Xiaoxi saw a huge cave.

The entrance was a full three meters high!

And at the cave entrance, groups of Giant Rats continuously emerged from within.
