Chapter 531 Dungeon exploration (11)

Since we had arrived where the rats came from last time, it was time to be careful.

Instead of going forward on our own, we had the adventurers and mercenaries create a defensive line in front of us. But that was still far away from where the rats had appeared last time.

I had the zombies that I had created go forward instead to explore.

There were lights that were attached to them, so we could clearly see what was happening with them.

However, even as they moved forward, it didn't seem like anything was about to happen.

They just continued forward to where they had met the rats last time as if everything was normal.

Cecilia deeply knitted her brows seeing this and turned to me to give a look, as if she was saying that she wasn't lying about this.

I just gave a nod and patted her arm before giving her a look that said, "Just be patient."

I of course didn't doubt the information that she had brought back, but things were different now since it was a monster zombie that was moving forward instead of a human.

Would the rats attack another monster when they were all from the same dungeon?

That was unknown.

If need be, we might need to send someone down to provoke the rats into appearing.

Though that was an idea that I wasn't leaning towards.

I didn't want to sacrifice someone just to make the rats appear.

The slime that we sent down continued moving forward, going further than Cecilia's group had gone last time. However, there still wasn't a single rat that appeared even though it had gone that far.

I just patted her on the arm and said, "Don't worry, it just means that they weren't here. They were most likely wandering around and you ran into them by…"

Before I could finish, there was a slight tremble that came from under me.

I quickly turned back to look at the slime that was about to disappear out of view.

With the light from the slime, I could make out…many black wriggling forms that had appeared in front of the slime.

These were the rats!

Only when they slime had come deep into their territory did they finally appear.

So they would appear right away if it was humans, but they didn't appear right away if it was another monster.

The monsters seemed to have established territories and were forgiving to a certain extent.

It was only when the slime had gone too deep into their territory that the rats suddenly appeared to retaliate.

Since they came out, the slime immediately turned and ran.

That was the order that I had given it.

As long as it encountered an enemy, it would immediately turn around and run to where they were.

It would bring all those enemies over for them to deal with.

As soon as the slime turned and ran, the rats came out in a swarm.

With just the light from the slime, we were able to see thousands of these rats chasing after the slime. It was like a black wave that came out of the crevices of the dungeon and it seemed like there were even more of them coming out.

However, the slime zombie knew no fear and didn't hesitate at all.

Once it had been given its orders, it only knew how to follow these orders and do nothing else.

Since it had received orders to run, it would run.

With the speed that it moved at, it was able to keep out of the range of the rats.

Just before the rats could reach it, the slime zombie would bounce out of the way of their sharp fangs.

The slime zombie led them closer and closer to the area where we were gathered.

At the same time, it was leading them closer and closer to the trap that we had set.

Seeing that they were coming, I looked at Cecilia and she looked at the ones that were holding our secret weapons.

They had been in a daze at first, but seeing that Cecilia was looking at them, they nodded to show that they were ready.

Cecilia gave a nod back before raising her hand.

However, she didn't let that hand drop as she watched the rats coming closer and closer.

Finally, the slime zombie reached the zone which we had dictated and suddenly stopped running.

It was as if it was looking for death with the way that it just stood there in the face of the impending wave of rats that were coming right at it.

It seemed like this slime zombie was only a moment from death.

That was until something suddenly rained down from above.

There were mushroom zombies that rained down on the black wave of rats.

As soon as these mushroom zombies landed, they exploded in a wave of spores that immediately covered the surrounding rats.

There were some that stopped, there were some that kept going.

The rats were in complete chaos once the mushroom zombies rained down on them as they didn't know what to do.

In the ensuing chaos, there were some rats that were even trampled by the wave that rushed forward. They were one mass, but that didn't mean that there weren't separate rats here.

The ones that were in the front of the wave couldn't resist the momentum that came from the ones in the back, so they were crushed under the weight of all of these rats that couldn't stop in time.

The ones that were covered in the spores were also quickly covered in mushrooms and dropped to the ground.

These rats weren't able to resist the spores of these mushroom zombies at all.

In no time at all, there was a large patch of rats that were eliminated around the slime zombie.

The rats that had managed to stop in time didn't dare move forward again.

It seemed that there was a stalemate that was drawn.
