Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 234 Rat Swarm Attack

Seeing everyone's gazes, Li Chenzhou realized the problem and couldn't help but feel a bit regretful.

Dark Blood, as a spatial war chariot that required 50,000 Slaughter Points to exchange for, certainly wouldn't just have the convenience of living in it. After all, this was a "war chariot" produced by the Slaughter System!

Its ultimate purpose was still to serve the slaughter. The words "spatial war chariot"—"spatial" represented that it had its own internal space, while "war chariot" represented the bias of its performance.

Of course, because Li Chenzhou had barely scraped together 50,000 Slaughter Points, this war chariot didn't carry any weapons. However, the people on board could still use the various positions on the chariot, using the body of the chariot as cover to fight.

It was just that Li Chenzhou received the information directly when he bought it, so he was familiar with the various combat positions of the chariot and how to enter them. The others didn't understand. There definitely wouldn't be enough time to teach them now.

Dark Blood's own reconnaissance range was only 100 meters. At the speed of the mutated rats, this distance might not even take three seconds!

"I'll test the strength of this mutated rat swarm first. You guys quickly find Number One and understand Dark Blood's combat methods! Then find combat positions suitable for yourselves!"

Li Chenzhou didn't have time to say more. After dropping those words, he entered the multi-functional hall—the entrances to the war chariot's combat positions were all inside!

"Ah? Oh! Number One! Come out quickly and tell us how we can use this chariot to fight! Are there any weapons on board?"

It wasn't until Li Chenzhou left that Gray Bear reacted, and hurriedly shouted. Duan Lei immediately asked a question:

"Number One, can Dark Blood's internal space block mental attacks?"

"Absolutely!"

Number One answered Duan Lei first, because when Li Chenzhou set it up, Duan Lei's permissions with Number One were second only to Li Chenzhou's.

This wasn't just because Duan Lei's loyalty had always been one hundred, but also because Duan Lei's brain was quite intelligent, and his fighting style wasn't suitable for leaving the war chariot.

"The space inside the spatial war chariot is independent and doesn't overlap with the space you're in. Therefore, no attacks, including mental attacks, can break through the spatial barrier and enter here!"

Number One's explanation was very detailed.

"So, even though there's a mutated rat swarm outside, as long as we don't go out, we'll always be safe?"

Duan Lei was stunned, and then asked. He had actually asked Li Chenzhou the same question, but because Li Chenzhou remembered the Slaughter System, he didn't get an answer.

"Theoretically, that's how it is. However, the spatial war chariot's defense isn't infinite, and the spatial war chariot itself is the carrier of this independent space. So, although the outside can't attack the inside, it can attack the spatial war chariot."

Number One replied:

"Once the chariot is destroyed, this space will lose its carrier and collapse instantly, and everything inside will be annihilated along with it!"

"Damn! So this isn't absolutely safe after all?"

Gray Bear said, then quickly asked again:

"Then hurry up and tell us where the chariot's weapons are! How do we use them?"

"When the slayer exchanged for the chariot, they only exchanged for the bare chassis. The bare chassis provides necessary items such as corresponding furniture inside, but weapons aren't included!"

Number One replied again:

"Currently, the spatial war chariot has a total of eight weapon mounting positions, six combat bunkers, and five combat positions, but there isn't a single weapon!"

"Combat bunkers?"

Gray Bear's eyes lit up and he immediately shouted:

"Tell us about the situation of those bunkers and how we can enter them!"

As he spoke, Gray Bear stood up and rushed towards the warehouse, shouting at the same time:

"Everyone come over and get weapons! I still have a few boxes of high-explosive grenades, let's blow these damn rats to death!"

Hearing Gray Bear's words, Tian Ya and Fatty also rushed over, while Duan Lei looked at Li Chenzhou outside…

Li Chenzhou appeared directly on the front of the chariot, on the hood of the off-road vehicle. This position was actually most suitable for Fatty, but Li Chenzhou wanted to use this rat swarm to improve himself a little more.

For so long, Li Chenzhou's combat analysis had been stuck at 9 percent. He wanted to see what would happen when it reached 10 percent!

Anyway, his position was one of the five combat positions, and behind him was the spatial door. If he couldn't hold on, he could instantly return to the multi-functional hall. This was the convenience afforded by the words "war chariot"!

Under the illumination of the headlights, Li Chenzhou could clearly see the large group of rats rushing towards him frantically. The closest ones were less than ten meters away, and their tiny, bean-like eyes were all blood-red, looking extremely eerie under the lights.

"So many?"

Seeing the rat swarm in front of him, Li Chenzhou's heart sank. He had judged from Old Chen's words that the rat swarm might exceed one hundred, but now it seemed that he had underestimated them.

Just the mutated rats that Li Chenzhou could see now already numbered five or six hundred, and judging from the swaying of the wild grass in the wilderness on both sides, the number of rats was far more than that.

"Hmph! Then come on!"

Despite knowing the number, Li Chenzhou didn't have any other ideas, because they couldn't retreat. Although Li Chenzhou and the others could use Dark Blood's strength to escape, the surrounding bases would suffer.

Moreover, destroying these bases would make the rat swarm stronger and harder to deal with, so they couldn't be given the opportunity to develop!

Besides, these were just mutated rats. If he couldn't even deal with them, how could Li Chenzhou fight against the Devourers and the creators of the Slaughter System?

"Pu!"

As the long staff swung, a mutated rat, as big as a cat, that pounced on him was smashed by Li Chenzhou, its brains splattering. This blow also gave Li Chenzhou confidence.

Before, he wasn't sure if his long staff could smash the heads of these mutated rats. After all, the bones of mutated beasts were very hard, and if he couldn't kill them with one blow, it would undoubtedly have a huge impact on him and disrupt his control of the battle rhythm!

With confidence in his heart, Li Chenzhou was no longer polite. Standing on the hood of the chariot, he was like a pillar in the middle of a stream, stubbornly blocking the rat swarm. The sounds of "pu pu" were endless, and the headless corpses of the mutated rats fell one after another!

In the midst of the battle, Li Chenzhou took the time to look at his Slaughter Points. He found that for each mutated rat he killed, he would actually gain two to three Slaughter Points.

This discovery made Li Chenzhou even more motivated. The long staff in his hand danced into a phantom, smashing or flying away mutated rats one after another.

However, as the entire rat swarm surged up, Li Chenzhou had to face not only the mutated rats in front of him, but also all-round attacks from under his feet. Since he also had to kill the mutated rats, his own defense was finally breached by the mutated rats…
