Chapter 875: Chapter 875: 3 Kids and a Mouse

In the underground sewer, a figure moved swiftly forward; it was the Three Cubs.

It had already realized that there was a problem with its current state, so it needed to get as far from the surface as possible before losing its sanity.

Additionally, its intuition told it that deep underground, there was something full of exotic energy, and that thing might temporarily satisfy its twisted desire.

Of course, it also knew that the so-called satisfaction was just an illusion, and even if it devoured the thing, it would be like drinking poison to quench thirst.

But at this moment, the Three Cubs couldn’t resist.

It sped through the sewer and finally found a huge, pitch-black crack in a certain place, into which it slipped without hesitation.

The dark tunnel was filled with a strong smell of rats, and the peculiar energy aura was even more prominent. Clearly, this was the source of all the rats in Lingyuan County Town, and the origin of the strange energy.

After crawling to the end, the Three Cubs discovered that it had entered a black, lightless space.

Its skin quickly changed color, then activated a sensory system beyond vision, and it immediately detected a massive space spanning dozens of meters in all directions, with a violent heartbeat coming from a gigantic creature.

From the smell alone, Three Cubs could tell that the giant creature was a rat, and it was exactly the rat it wanted to find; as long as it swallowed it...

Therefore, the Three Cubs silently crawled towards the huge creature, the fangs in its mouth extending out.

The most powerful weapon of the Three-Eyed Illusion Snake was its unstoppable venom. No matter if the monster was Disaster Lower Order or Middle Sequence, once bitten, it would immediately perish, and even a high order level monster would be severely wounded.

But just as the Three Cubs approached, a claw suddenly grabbed it, flinging its snake body away, then jumping up high to bite it fiercely.

The Three Cubs became angry from the bite; its body swelled up, attempting to coil around the large rat and swallow it.

But although it had the ability to change size, close combat was not its specialty, so it was easily overwhelmed by the rat.

The rat had been in the darkness for an unknown duration, adapting to everything here, including the air flow; even though the Three Cubs’ body could perform perfect camouflage, it couldn’t deceive the rat.

After being injured, the Three Cubs became more and more enraged, desperately trying to bite the rat, but its neck was held, unable to reach the rat’s skin.

Seeing the Three Cubs gradually falling into a disadvantage, a flash of black light appeared, and a figure stood in front of the Three Cubs.

"Why is it so dark, what’s going on?"

The suddenly appearing voice belonged to Wen Wen, who had just left Rabbit Village not long ago. After moving a certain distance away from Rabbit Village, he couldn’t be bothered with conventional travel, so he arrived directly at Three Cubs’ side through the Sanctuary.

But as soon as he appeared, he found that it was pitch black here, the visibility similar to the Underground Labyrinth where the Nest of Destruction was imprisoned.

Moreover, the Three Cubs was engaged in a life-and-death struggle with a monster nearby; it seemed that if Wen Wen appeared even a few minutes later, the Three Cubs would die at the hands of this monster.

It was unclear why the Three Cubs chose to fight to the death; it only needed to request from Wen Wen for containment in the Sanctuary.

Not dwelling on what he couldn’t understand, Wen Wen reached into his clothing and took out something resembling a grenade, tossing it directly to the ground.

The object exploded violently upon hitting the ground, emitting a blinding light... It was actually a flashbang!

The light from the flashbang could cause temporary blindness even in broad daylight, let alone in this almost lightless darkness.

The Three Cubs let out a pained scream, writhing on the ground, while the huge rat howled miserably, blood bursting from its eye sockets.

It had originally been an ordinary small rat, and one day an earthquake occurred, creating a faint crack in the underground of Lingyuan County, which the small rat crawled through.

Crawling, it found the path blocked, and something seemed to be calling it.

So it pushed away the dirt in front, opened a passage, and entered here.

The gloomy energy that had accumulated over countless years spilled out from the passage it had opened, and the energy affected the rat left inside, making its body increasingly larger until it could no longer leave.

But fortunately, there was a flowing water pool nearby, and occasionally small animals drawn by the energy would come through the narrow passage, so it never worried about food or drink.

When the Three Cubs entered today, the rat thought it was another feast delivered to its door, but when they clashed, it realized that this opponent was no simple prey; the Three Cubs’ strength was comparable to its own, and if the rat were less familiar with this place, it might have fallen into the Three Cubs’ hands.

Wen Wen controlled the situation upon arrival, then snapped his fingers, and the Bowl of Forgiveness flew out, capping the rat monster’s head, immobilizing it.

The light emanating from the Bowl of Forgiveness also allowed Wen Wen to see the situation clearly.

This place was a thirty-meter square space, with a height of five meters. Judging from the regular shape and brick floor, it was likely an artificial site.

The rat monster was three meters high, with a strength only at the disaster level, making it an even match for the Three Cubs.

But the Three Cubs was a Three-Eyed Illusion Snake, meaning this rat monster, with its equal strength, had potential for growth.

However, Wen Wen looked at the rat for a few moments, then casually threw a black light sword, piercing through the rat monster’s body, killing it.

First, this rat nearly killed the Three Cubs, and since the Three Cubs was Wen Wen’s pet and emergency ration, being harmed like this couldn’t go unpunished.

Second, it was because the creature was peculiarly ugly, growing without constraint in the lightless environment...

After the rat died, a large amount of filthy exotic energy burst out from its body, all of which surged into the Three Cubs’ body, instantly healing its wounds.

Once recovered, the Three Cubs straightened its upper body, staring coldly at Wen Wen.

After the energy entered its body, its last bit of sanity was eroded away, making it bold enough to attack Wen Wen.

Seeing the Three Cubs’ movement, Wen Wen calmly looked at his palm, where there was a wisp of energy previously released from the rat monster’s body.

"Tsk tsk, so it’s this energy causing trouble, provoking the creatures’ wild nature, then making them addicted..."

Then Wen Wen’s expression became stern, and he reprimanded the Three Cubs harshly: "Although this energy is peculiar, if you weren’t so greedy, you wouldn’t have ended up like this."

"For the next ten days, you won’t even have hot pot broth, and your main course will be pickled bricks!"
