Chapter 260: Rise Of The Rat Ball
In short, after the Three Gods appeared, they, this group of upper layer lackeys, were undoubtedly the most worried and nervous.
“How is it? No movement from Yaoyang City yet?”
“No,” the subordinate who came to report said with a dry laugh: “And according to the news I heard, the grain price in Yaoyang City has long returned to stability. Even with the current closure of the intercity space channel, it remains unaffected.”
“What kind of joke is this?” Wang Zhi turned pale with fright. “Where did they get so much grain from? Could it be that those grain merchants are secretly providing support?”
The more Wang Zhi thought, the angrier he got, and he immediately contacted several major grain merchant families.
After learning the situation, Wang Zhi couldn’t help but feel a bit dazed.
“What? You mean Yaoyang City now has surplus grain to sell outside?”
“Isn’t that right? We’ve been secretly investigating this matter recently too.”
After hanging up the phone, Wang Zhi’s face flickered between dark and clear, growing angrier the more he thought.
No, why?
Where did they get their grain production methods from?
At this moment, he felt like a clown.
He had originally been smugly waiting for Yaoyang City to kneel and beg for mercy, but who would have thought they didn’t take him seriously at all, and were instead living even more comfortably than before.
Even more outrageous was that the Underworld Club had taken down last month’s special grade expedition and officially promoted to Gold Medal Club.
“Could it be the association’s secret intervention?”
Thinking of Cui Wenxuan’s special identity, it wasn’t impossible.
Or perhaps, the Yaoyang City Association had just cultivated relevant professional talent?
“Investigate, investigate thoroughly for me!” Wang Zhi said through gritted teeth: “Make sure to find out the source of their grain.”
Damn it, he had originally wanted to use this to show off to the people in the club, but ended up being shown up by Yaoyang City instead.
“Ah? But the intercity space channels are all closed now?”
“No intercity space channel and you can’t live?” Wang Zhi said irritably: “Bring more manpower and go through the dimension infestation zone.”
The subordinate could only comply helplessly.
After retreating, he couldn’t help but be sarcastic in his heart.
Previously boasting to the skies about how awesome the upper layer was, saying Yaoyang City would soon kneel and beg for mercy.
And then? I fucking ask you, and then what?
Being a dog for the upper layer himself was one thing, but he even wanted to fool everyone into being dogs together, idiot!
Wang Zhi didn’t notice the abnormality in several of his subordinates. At this moment, his mind was full of the impact of the Three Gods’ appearance on the future world structure, and on the Wang Family’s future.
After all, the Wang Family’s current status was essentially “bullying others by flaunting one’s powerful connections.”
Just then, Wang Zhi seemed to notice something, a flash of ecstatic joy in his eyes.
Without a word, he hurried back to the family secret chamber.
In the secret chamber, there was a mirror-like device enshrined, and beside the device, several divine dogs of various forms were already in position, listening to the instructions and teachings from their master in the mirror.
Wang Zhi steeled himself and knelt down, “Master, your most loyal Gouzi has arrived.”
Buzz~!
As soon as the words fell, the man in the mirror’s face darkened, and a powerful might projected through the mirror onto the Wang Family members.
“Forgot the rules, huh?” The man in the mirror said from on high, expression indifferent.
“Please forgive me, Master~ Please forgive me,” Wang Zhi was so scared he soiled himself on the spot, explaining in panic: “It wasn’t that this slave forgot the rules, it’s just that the collar you granted this slave was destroyed by a shortsighted kid.”
“Hm?” The man in the mirror frowned in surprise. “Who has such audacity to destroy the Heavenly Being’s creation?”
“Reporting to Master, it’s a young upstart from Yaoyang City side who just emerged. He has extremely high scroll painting talent and is now thriving in Tianfeng Province.” Wang Zhi explained, prostrating himself fully.
“Useless thing!” The man in the mirror snorted coldly.
“Oh right, that kid also has a powerful divine dog gold scroll. Master should be very interested.” Wang Zhi hurriedly changed the topic.
“Is that so?” The man in the mirror seemed to take some interest.
Wang Zhi quickly pulled out his phone and played a video about Lou Jin Dog.
The more the man in the mirror watched, the more shocked and pleased he was. A rare hint of interest emerged on his aloof face. “Good dog! Truly a good dog!
No need for This Seat to say more about what to do, right?”
“Master, rest assured. This slave will do everything possible to make it submit at your feet.”
The man in the mirror nodded in satisfaction. “The current situation is chaotic, This Seat isn’t convenient to come down. How is the collection of the things I had you gather before?”
“We’ve collected quite a bit already. Please take a look.”
Wang Zhi hurriedly pulled out a pile of data cores and tossed them into the man in the mirror’s hand.
“As for those three otherworldly demon gods, the Heavenly Being side has its own countermeasures,” the man in the mirror sneered: “Let them strut around for a while first.”
Wang Zhi and the Wang Family Gouzi’s nodded obediently.
Then, the man in the mirror issued a series of missions and instructions, his figure gradually blurring in the mirror.
Seeing this, Wang Zhi hurriedly said: “Master, this slave’s new collar…”
…
Yaoyang City, No. 3 Tudi Temple Farm.
Nowadays, the public’s incense offerings to the earth temples are increasing, and the various Tudi Temple Farms are developing better and better.
But starting from the past few days, problems have frequently arisen.
Over here at the granary, several farm staff were disheveled, with a mouse corpse even bigger than a dog and with glossy fur lying at their feet.
It had taken them quite some effort to catch this big mouse.
It wasn’t that the mouse was particularly strong, mainly that it was too slippery and hard to catch.
“Tsk~ This is the rhythm of the rat balls rising?”
Wu Xian carefully studied the big mouse in front of him, sighing inwardly.
He had just witnessed the latter half of the battle to capture the big mouse and was truly startled.
Never mind why the mouse grew so big; the key was that this thing could do short-distance space jumps. How outrageous!
Who could have imagined a few days ago that【Emperor Spirit of the Void】 would bring this kind of influence?
You know, this was just an ordinary mouse from the human world. If it were those various rodent creatures from the otherworld, who knows what they could evolve into.
“Are the mice in other parts of the city like this too?” Wu Xian frowned and asked.
“Other places are okay, just larger in size and much stronger,” the staff reported: “But the mutation amplitude here on our farm is a bit big.”
Hearing this, Wu Xian couldn’t help but joke, “Pretty good at picking.”
Mice lived up to being mice; they were indeed professional in this aspect.
Could only blame their farm’s grain quality being too high, with “nutritional” value too high. In just a few days, it had nurtured this group of mice to this extent.
“Roughly how many mice are in the farm?” Wu Xian inquired.
“Preliminary estimate, no less than a hundred. You know their reproductive ability,” the staff said with a worried face. “Given time, the numbers will probably ascend to heaven.”
Wu Xian was secretly helpless. “Temporarily transfer the granary to the sub-space storage device. As for the grain fields, first find some【Leopard Tail Marshal】 players over; it should have some effect.”
The granary could be transferred to sub-space, but the grain growing in the fields couldn’t be hidden in sub-space.
“Got it, subordinate will go arrange it now.”
Wu Xian sighed lightly, turned to inspect other farms, and the situation wasn’t much better.
After returning to North Street District, he began thinking of countermeasures.
If it were ordinary mouse infestation, it would naturally be no difficulty; could handle it casually.
The key was that now this group of rats were no longer ordinary rats, but “relatives” of the current True God. Some rats had even mastered the “flash” skill.
“Sigh~ Not sure if our Yellow Great Immortal can handle it?”
