Chapter 47 - Chapter 47: The First Battle

Dudian quickly leaned sideways and rolled on the ground, dodging the pounce of this gray shadow. At the same time, he looked up and saw that it was a huge black-haired rat, just like the "Bone-eating Rat" that had escaped earlier, but it was a bit thinner in size. At this moment, it bared its ferocious sharp teeth like a hunting dog, and its blood-red eyes stared fixedly at him.

 

"Demonic creature!" Mekin, Zach, and Sham exclaimed in surprise, their faces turned pale, and their legs felt a bit weak.

 

Whoosh!

 

The Bone-eating Rat missed its attack. After landing, it leaped up again and pounced towards Dudian, who was the closest.

 

Dudian's hair stood on end all over his body. The Bone-eating Rat was too fast. He didn't have time to dodge again, and facing such a battle for the first time, his brain reacted a bit sluggishly. Instinctively, he raised his arm to block.

 

With a bang, he felt as if a heavy object had violently hit his upper body, and his body lost its balance and fell backward. He plopped down on the ground and instinctively wanted to close his eyes in fear. But the last bit of remaining reason in his heart reminded him that doing so would mean waiting for death. He forced himself to open his eyes and saw that the Bone-eating Rat was pouncing on him, its sharp rat mouth opened wide, and its small sharp teeth tightly biting his arm!

 

Panic, fear, and a longing for time to stop!

Save me! Save me!

 

Many chaotic thoughts suddenly flooded into his mind. When his life was in a desperate situation, his instinct immediately overwhelmed his reason. However, this was just a momentary thought. His long-standing calm mindset allowed Dudian to quickly regain his reason in the midst of his panic. When he saw the upper and lower jaws of the Bone-eating Rat constantly wriggling as it chewed on his arm, and the sharp pain came from his arm, a huge surge of anger suddenly welled up in his heart.

 

"Ugh... ah..." Dudian roared and swung his arm, slamming it heavily on the street. At the same time, he rolled over and got up. He let go of the short sword in his other hand, grabbed the hind leg of the Bone-eating Rat that was tightly biting his right arm, and pulled it forcefully. At the same time, he kept hitting his right arm on the ground, making its head collide violently with the ground!

 

Bang! Bang! Bang!

 

With continuous fierce smashing and pulling, the Bone-eating Rat couldn't hold on and soon released its mouth. Dudian roared and swung its body, slamming it forcefully on the ground. With a bang, the Bone-eating Rat's body hit the hard ground, and its fur and flesh absorbed a lot of the impact force.

 

"Die for me! Die! Die!"

 

Dudian roared and smashed it furiously, swinging it down on the ground again and again. The hard head of the Bone-eating Rat collided with the ground, and its bones cracked immediately. Soon, blood spilled from the corner of the Bone-eating Rat's mouth. As Dudian swung it high, the blood spilled from the corner of its mouth in a parabolic shape and splashed nearby.

 

With a bang, not knowing how many times he had swung and smashed it, Dudian felt that the anger in his heart gradually subsided, and a sense of exhaustion spread through his arm. He looked at the Bone-eating Rat in his hand that had stopped struggling, gritted his teeth, picked up the short sword on the ground, and stabbed it fiercely into its belly.

 

The short sword was extremely sharp. After stabbing it seven or eight times in a row, blood stained the short sword. Dudian stopped his attack when he saw that it had completely stopped moving. He felt that his heart was still pounding wildly. Recalling the terrifying scene earlier, he still felt a lingering fear. This was the first time he had faced fear and death so directly. Although he had seen the most terrifying doomsday scenes, that was just a glimpse from the TV, like watching a disaster movie, which was completely different from the feeling of experiencing it firsthand.

 

Without looking in the mirror, Dudian could feel that his face was extremely pale at the moment, and he looked extremely in a mess. He panted slightly and looked at his right arm. There were several deep tooth marks on it. Fortunately, the material of the black soft armor was extremely hard, and there was a layer of lead metal inside, so it hadn't been bitten through. Otherwise, the speed of infection through saliva was much faster than other ways, and he would probably end up like Scott's described husband of Mia, becoming an Undead Walking Corpse...

 

"Dian!" Mekin suddenly shouted.

 

Dudian was stunned and looked up at him.

 

But he saw Mekin rushing over suddenly, raising the short sword and slashing down.

 

Dudian suddenly woke up. Remembering the seven or eight red spots he had seen in the supermarket earlier, he quickly rolled on the ground.

 

With a puff, at the moment Dudian dodged, Mekin's short sword stabbed fiercely behind him, and blood spattered out. The short sword stabbed into the chest of a Bone-eating Rat that had pounced over. That was the softest part, and the short sword went straight in.

 

Dudian quickly looked back and saw that in addition to the Bone-eating Rat that Mekin had stabbed to death, three more Bone-eating Rats rushed out rapidly one after another from the broken glass door of the supermarket. Their blood-red eyes stared fixedly at them. Like agile leopards, they scurried left and right and pounced towards Mekin and Dudian.

 

Dudian's face looked grim. He grabbed the short sword and kept retreating backward, waving the short sword in his hand gently from time to time to intimidate these creatures from approaching. However, the simple intimidation didn't scare these Bone-eating Rats. One of them scurried in front of Dudian and suddenly pounced over.

 

Dudian quickly swung his sword to slash. The blade slashed on the fur of the Bone-eating Rat, but the greasy and tough fur deflected the force. The sharp edge slipped and stuck to the body of the Bone-eating Rat, just like hitting it with the blade of the sword, and it didn't cause any damage at all. The next moment, the Bone-eating Rat pounced on Dudian's chest, and its two sharp front rat claws waved menacingly, reaching for Dudian's face.

 

It was like the hunting instinct of a wild beast, knowing to attack the vital parts of the opponent.

 

Dudian quickly grabbed its fur. Once he was scratched by it, with the germs accumulated in its claws that had crawled through all kinds of dirty places, he would be infected immediately. However, the gloves of the black soft armor didn't have much friction, and the fur of the Bone-eating Rat was extremely slippery. Despite trying his best, Dudian still felt the fur slipping through his hands rapidly.

 

His life was once again in a desperate situation.

 

Dudian let out a roar, suddenly propped his feet on the ground and rolled over. His body twisted in an extremely flexible posture, and he actually stood up without using his hands. At the same time, his arm was still holding onto the last bit of fur, and he pushed it sideways with all his strength, sending the Bone-eating Rat flying.

 

The Bone-eating Rat fell to the ground, rolled over, and then got up again in a flash. It bared its teeth and pounced towards Dudian again, menacingly.

 

Dudian's heart tightened, all the muscles in his body tensed up, and his mental focus reached its peak at this moment. The moment the Bone-eating Rat pounced, he suddenly kicked out.

 

With a bang, the Bone-eating Rat leaped up. Just at this moment, Dudian's foot, as if anticipating its attack, accurately kicked it in the position where it pounced. Containing the angry power that erupted from despair, this kick was extremely powerful. The Bone-eating Rat let out a sharp scream and flew backward, tumbling.

 

Dudian didn't stop but took the initiative to rush forward!

 

When the Bone-eating Rat landed, Dudian had already caught up. While it hadn't gotten up yet, he clenched the short sword with both hands and stabbed down forcefully.

 

With a bang, the short sword stabbed into its abdomen and penetrated into its belly.

 

The Bone-eating Rat was suddenly struck by intense pain and struggled violently. At the same time, it let out a series of ear-piercing sharp screams. Dudian gritted his teeth and used all his strength with both hands to hold the short sword firmly, nailing it to the ground. No matter how it struggled and screamed, he didn't let go.

 

At this moment, he didn't even realize that his heart was filled with cruelty and hostility!
