C6 Rattus flavipectus

The stone egg was too mysterious. It was impossible to find out what era it actually came from. The only information that could be found was from the Ancient Era, and there were many legends about the stone egg.

After all, it was known as the most mysterious treasure among the Ancient Void Three Treasures. In every era, there would be people who would bring it out of the Ancient Void Cave, but in the end, they would all leave without any results and the stone egg would mysteriously return to the Ancient Void Cave.

However, after experiencing countless generations, many legends believed that the stone egg was an ultimate treasure that came from beyond the heavens. No one in the Heaven Realm could refine it, and no one could destroy it.

Although the stone egg was a supreme treasure, it didn't have much meaning to warriors. Gu Juntian did not think that he could truly own it either.

This time, as the stone egg coincidentally entered his dantian, it went through a lot of changes and gradually gained an indescribable charm. However, when he carefully probed, he discovered that it was still as ordinary as before. The only difference was that the surface of the stone egg was covered in dense patterns. He didn't know if it was good or bad for him.

Just as Gu Juntian was deep in his thoughts, Luo nationality let out a long hiss.

"Stop!"

"Watch out!" The caravan came to a halt.

So it turned out that Luo nationality's convoy had encountered trouble! In the Great Desolate Mountain Range, dire beasts ran rampant and were extremely dangerous. The pedestrians on the caravan were the easiest to be attacked by them.

To the warriors in the Luo nationality's convoy, they could at most handle some low-priced dire beasts. They had no right to enter the depths of the Wasteland.

As an old convoy that had lived in the Great Desolate Mountain Range for so many years, Luo Xiong actually knew this logic as well. This time, he had been forced into a corner. Plus, he had been lucky enough to get a lot, so he came up with the idea of getting lucky.

But they often walked by the river, how could their feet not get wet? Good luck wouldn't always be with him. He had finally met with a crisis.

He saw the precipitous mountain wall in front of him. On the surface of the wall, there were crushed rocks and strange trees everywhere. Ancient trees to the left and right covered the sky. Occasionally, wolf howls could be heard, giving off a ghastly feeling, making people's hair stand on end.

The caravan was stopped on a small flat piece of land. At this moment, all of the warriors in the caravan had dismounted and were moving around the caravan. Even without the chief's reminder, everyone still felt that it was dangerous.

Although the dire beasts had not appeared yet, their auras were getting closer and closer. A storm was brewing. There were pairs of vigilant eyes constantly scanning the dark surroundings. Their hands tightly gripped the weapons at their waists, ready to deal with any unexpected situations.

It's here! With a "whoosh", a gray shadow the size of a millstone jumped out from the mountain wall in front of him. Like a bolt of lightning, he suddenly appeared next to a middle-aged martial artist, easily biting his calf. This martial artist's face suddenly turned as pale as paper, and his limbs became so cold that they turned soft.

"Third Uncle, quickly get out of the way!"

The few young warriors beside him reacted quickly. The swords in their hands attacked like the wind, forcing the Wasteland Mouse to let go of the middle-aged man's hand and dodge to the side.

Just then, Clan Leader Luo Xiong's body became like lightning, the blade light became snow, and slashed towards the Desolate Mouse, causing it to be cut in half, and dropped to the ground.

However, Luo Xiong's brows were knitted tighter and tighter as he said anxiously: "Quick! Luo Hu, carry Old Third on your back. Everyone else immediately retreat and return to their original path. Second Brother and I will each bring three clansmen. Luo Jian will go protect Ling'er. I never thought that we would meet a Desolate Mouse … "

Although the grade of the dire rat was not high, being a low level dire beast, it was generally only at the third stage, and the one that just came out was a second stage one.

Although the grade of the dire rat was low, it still gave most of the carriages a headache. As the dire beasts moved quickly, it was very difficult for warriors to guard against them. They belonged to a group of animals, and usually they rarely traveled alone or in groups of a few dozen or even a hundred.

The one who had just arrived was just the scout at the front. The group of Desolate Mice behind him were about to arrive. Not to mention that most of the members of the Luo nationality were Level 1 or Level 2 Warriors, even the highest level Patriarch, Luo Xiong, was only a Martial Grand Master of the Third Order. Even if they were all Level 1 or Level 2 Barbarians, with a few dozen of them, they would still be able to cause heavy losses to the convoy.

The beasts in the wasteland were divided into nine ranks like the warriors of the yellow boundary.

Rank one to three were low level dire beasts, corresponding to the first three levels of a human martial artist: warrior, martial master, and Martial Grand Master.

Rank four to six are medium dire beasts, corresponding to the middle third stage of human warriors, martial general, martial king, and Martial King.

Beasts at the seventh stage and above were extremely rare, similar to the human warriors' Martial Saint s, Martial Saints, and Martial Emperors. The intelligence of these dire beasts had already been developed, and their might was boundless. Every single one of them was an overlord of a region, and it was extremely difficult to deal with them.

There were whistles, sharp whistles, and the howls of the beasts. The carriages quickly turned around, but once the beasts didn't come, how could the carriages avoid them?

A group of Stone Rats came rushing over from all directions. The warriors in the caravan activated their defense and quickly engaged the Stone Rats in battle.

Fortunately, the Luo nationality warriors had been in battle formations for a long time, and their weapons and armor were well-equipped. Even when they encountered the dire beasts, they did not fall into disorder. Instead, they formed groups of three to five and arranged themselves in a battle formation. However, they were barely able to withstand the first round of attacks from the dire beasts.

However, they would definitely lose if they kept defending for too long. It was impossible to continue like this, and not long later, there would be people who fell to the ground from time to time among the Luo nationality warriors. As the leader of the clan, Luo Xiong had led his clansmen deep into the Wasteland. The cruel reality made him extremely regretful. But now was not the time to regret. He used all his might to attack the surrounding dire rats. Fortunately, there were less than 40 of them and the highest level one was only at the peak of the Second Order.

After all, Luo Xiong was a Martial Grand Master who had reached the peak of Martial Arts. Every time he attacked, he would see blood on the ground.

However, his fists could not match up to four hands, and Luo Xiong was also riddled with injuries. Although they had killed quite a number of Stone Rats, the danger had not been resolved, and the surrounding Luo nationality members continued to fall.

"Ya!"

A shriek could be heard as a dire rat tore through the beast carriage's fabric, its sharp claws swiping past Ling'er's eyes. Although the little girl had followed the group out a few times and also gained some knowledge, she had never participated in such a battle before. She was frightened out of her wits as she hacked around randomly with the precious sword in her hand.

It turned out that a few of the Stone Rats had broken through the defense line and rushed into the carriage, beginning to attack the beast carriage. The Earth Beast's body was enormous, its skin was tough and its flesh was thick, but its rotation was slow. It was impossible to defend against attacks from dire beasts, so the convoy's speed quickly slowed down.

There were three beast carriages in total. The two carriages in front and back were filled with the collected resources, and only one of them belonged to the girl.

From this, it could be seen that she was a favoured person within the clan. Originally, when the convoy came out to gather goods, she was usually not allowed to join, but this little girl was lively and active, always wanting to follow her father out to play.

As the situation became more and more chaotic, the chief also felt that she should be allowed to see the bloodshed and feel the cruelty of the Wasteland. Under his protection, there shouldn't be any problems, so he agreed to her request.

Never would he have thought that he would actually encounter a Weasel this time. Seeing that it was attacking right in front of the girl, the Clan Chief was filled with courage as he shouted, "Ling'er, don't panic! I'll protect you! "

He then rushed to the front of the convoy, and Luo Jian, who was currently fighting against the two dire beasts, said, "Luo Jian, how did you protect Ling'er? How did you get the Desolate Mouse to charge in? Quickly go and protect your junior sister!"
