Chapter 349: Chapter 173 Mouse Swallows Snake_2

Among them, some had seen his Rat King before, and some hadn’t. However, they couldn’t help but show curiosity when they observed the Rat King’s dark golden, sleek fur.

In particular, Tao Linlin who was a summoner, stared at the Rat King, her eyes shimmering faintly. She had faced this Rat King before. The outcome of her match with Long Kongkong, in which she had lost, had much to do with this beast companion and its rider.

Yue Li laughed and said, "So, Kongkong is a rat knight! Teehee."

Long Kongkong rolled his eyes in annoyance, but couldn’t refute the comment.

After the Rat King landed, he looked around, seemingly a little disinterested, but then opened his mouth. This action genuinely frightened those who weren’t familiar with him. His mouth opened almost 180 degrees upwards, revealing an enormous, blood-filled maw completely out of proportion with his body.

The next instant, a hint of dark golden light could be seen surging within his enormous mouth, followed by a powerful suction force.

The smaller Breezy Falcons were directly drawn towards his gaping mouth. As soon as they entered the dark golden light in his mouth, they vanished as if swallowed by a bottomless pit.

And swiftly, all the Breezy Falcons were completely devoured. Just when everyone thought that he had finished, the Rat King suddenly leaped and landed before a Green Tree Python. He lowered his head and bit into the front end of the giant snake’s skull.

The Green Tree Python was simply too large, and even with his mouth fully opened, he could only take in the front end of its head. Then, under the stunned gaze of the crowd, the Rat King’s huge mouth started to stretch slightly under pressure, bit by bit engulfing the massive body of the Green Tree Python.

This...

Everyone had heard that mice were prey to snakes, but when had they ever seen a mouse eating a snake? This scene was not just shocking but also a bit horrifying.

They could all see that the Rat King’s body had visibly swelled, but compared to the size of the Green Tree Python he devoured, it seemed insignificant.

Everyone stared in amazement as the Rat King’s devouring speed increased. In only about five minutes, he’d fully consumed the enormous Green Tree Python.

The Rat King smacked his lips and scrunch up his mouth, seemingly unsatisfied. Only Long Kongkong heard his voice inside his head that said, "That didn’t taste good."

Although he complained, he still headed towards the next Green Tree Python.

For Rat King, the Green Tree Python was too weak and didn’t exactly suit his taste, but it was a source of energy! His unreliable master rarely provided him with enough food. Although he was not able to break through the supposed 5th Rank due to Long Kongkong’s current level, accumulating energy was always beneficial. It could aid in his recovery. As soon as Long Kongkong broke through his Cultivation Level, his own breakthrough would become easier.

When the Rat King finished devouring the last of the Green Tree Pythons, everyone’s expressions had become somewhat numb.

Tao Linlin finally couldn’t help but ask Long Kongkong, "Kongkong, where did you find this magical beast? To the best of my knowledge, the mainland doesn’t have such a rodent. Its devouring power is too strong."

Long Kongkong said somewhat proudly, "The Rat King was summoned from another plane on the Knights’ Holy Mountain. He’s bound by a blood pact with me, so everyone can rest easy. Its evolution comes from devouring. It’s 5th Rank now."

Upon hearing the word "blood pact", the Rat King turned around to give Long Kongkong a somewhat displeased look. After devouring so many magical beasts, its plump body had clearly grown a bit larger, with its round belly bloated. The energy provided by these magical beasts was enough for it to digest for a while. Even though they weren’t tasty, it was still satisfied, so it was in a good mood right now.

Just as Long Kongkong continued to boast, suddenly, a strange hum caught everyone’s attention.

Long Dangdang reacted the fastest, with a glint in his eyes, he immediately soared upward, casting a levitation technique on himself and quickly ascended a nearby tree.

Those who could fly also swiftly took to the sky. Yet the fastest one was Ming Xi, the Flash Assassin. She even beat Wang Changxin, who used Spirit Wings, to the top of the tree crown.

Wang Changxin was the second. Her Spirit Wings were extremely powerful. She shot out of the tree crown in an instant, breaking many branches as she went. She still had some difficulties controlling it.

Long Dangdang and Ling Menglu were the next to arrive. As for Tao Linlin and Long Kongkong, they didn’t bother to come up.

When Long Dangdang looked up, he saw a huge halo of light spreading out in the sky. The halo was red, making it very conspicuous. The red halo ripples far into the distance, quickly covering a vast area, stretching past where the eye could see before finally dissipating.

Long Dangdang raised his hand, making some gestures in the air, while spinning around to change directions. Finally, he stopped and pointed in a direction, saying, "Everyone, remember this direction. The light ring just now expanded from this direction. We’ll head this way. Ming Xi, you’ll scout ahead. Everyone else, follow."

Everyone descended back to the ground, and Long Dangdang arranged their formation.

Ming Xi scouted ahead, not going more than a kilometer ahead of the group, keeping in contact at all times through the Spirit Crystal.

Long Dangdang and his brother Long Kongkong, both knights, were up front. Behind them were Ling Menglu, Yue Li, and Tao Linlin, with Wang Changxin covering the rear.

From the observation of the light ring in the sky just now, everyone vaguely understood Long Dangdang’s intention. Their admiration for him grew even stronger. Clearly, using this method to determine the direction would, at the very least, not result in any significant deviation. It was a more efficient use of time compared to moving forward blindly.

Ming Xi’s speed was very fast; she disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye. The group moved quickly, not slowing their pace. Those from the previous demon hunting team who had left in this direction were undoubtedly paving the way for them.

While walking, Yue Li asked the person next to her, Tao Linlin, "Taozi, can you tame magical beasts?"

Tao Linlin replied, "As summoners, we have some techniques that can make magical beasts submit, or even become our permanent summoned beasts. But this requires a lot of prerequisites; it’s not that easy." Saying this, Tao Linlin gave Yue Li a somewhat helpless look. He was a bit resistant to the nickname Taozi, but Yue Li was the oldest member of the group, so he didn’t say anything. His personality was usually quite easygoing.

Ling Menglu chimed in, "Tell us, what are the prerequisites?"

Tao Linlin explained, "First off, the beast’s rank can’t be higher than mine, or if it is, the chances of failure would increase. Secondly, the weaker the beast, the easier it is to tame. So, when we summoners want to complete a pact by killing wild magical beasts, we usually choose to defeat them first, even severely wound them. But it’s not easy to get the intensity right. Wounded beasts can’t recover, rendering it meaningless. And it’s not just about defeating them, ideally they should willingly submit. This makes taming them easier, otherwise, it can be burdensome."

"On the attribute side, you could say I lean towards being a nature summoner. So, if it’s a plant attribute magic beast, it’s easier for me to intimidate, suppress, and ultimately bond with them. The process of taming becomes simpler. With magical beasts of other elements, it’s more difficult."

All of a sudden, Long Dangdang, who was walking up front, turned back and asked, "Senior, would it work if someone else assisted in intimidation?"
