Chapter 21: Fierce Ghost Face (Second Update) Seeking Red Tickets and Bookmarks
As a rare monster, the Steel Mantis Beast is quite miserable. As an outcast among its own kind, it is not accepted by the group, not even by the weakest and most incompetent White Name monsters; nor can it become the leader of the group, regardless of its strength! It will not be recognized within the group, destined to a lonely existence like a heavenly calamity star.
Even if the Steel Violent Mouse's strength is stronger, it will not be provoked or attacked by the tribe in the absence of other leaders; but there will also be no mouse that will listen to its command and leadership. Looking at the expression on this Steel Violent Mouse's face now, which has a certain level of intelligence, Liang Jing feels extremely fortunate. It's good that these mutant mice don't care about the Steel Violent Mouse, otherwise the danger of this mouse tide would be several times higher. Thugs are not scary, what's scary is when thugs have culture!
What's more, these "thugs" are now so dangerous that if you're not careful, they can leave you with nothing but a pile of bones.
Waaah! Waaah! Waaah!
Three 40mm-diameter steel balls weighing half a catty each shot out at high speed, bombarding the ferocious Steel Savage Mouse with its sharp teeth and claws. Liang Jing could imagine that if it was hit, this Steel Savage Mouse, whose body hair defense had been reduced to minimize damage from the steel needles, would not die but would be left with only half a life.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of steel balls destroying flesh appeared again, bursting into clusters of blood-colored fireworks. However, Liang Jing's face didn't look good at all, because the steel balls had hit ordinary mutated rats, causing a commotion in the rat pack! The Steel Violent Mouse, sensing the danger of the steel ball explosion, disregarded the lives and deaths of its companions and instantly burst out with super speed, dodging the steel ball's attack range.
My god!
Come on!
Waaah! Waaah! Waaah!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Damn! Seeing that the ones hitting him were still ordinary mutated rats from the mouse tide, Liang Jing suddenly realized that things were going to be troublesome, and even had a feeling of "killing a rat with a precious vase". Under Liang Jing's 【Violent Throw】attack, the Steel Violent Mouse was confined to a small area, not daring to run far away, and even had a mocking look in its eyes, how clever! But if Liang Jing were to kill too many mutated rats within a certain range and time, it would definitely trigger the alertness and anger of other mutated rats, making things even more troublesome.
Watching the Steel Violent Mouse approach, getting closer and closer after stopping throwing steel balls, the small black eyes flashing with bloodthirstiness and excitement. Liang Jing thought to herself, fine! I'll wait for you to run out in front of the mouse group, let's see how you use ordinary variant rats as obstacles and bait to hide then.
Waaah! Waaah! Waaah!
Squeak!
Liang Jing's eyes narrowed, this Steel Violent Mouse was indeed violent as its name suggested, with a burst of powerful force. Just now, Liang Jing took advantage of the moment when it had just rushed out from the mouse tide and suddenly launched a [Violent Throw] steel ball shot, but unexpectedly, the Steel Violent Mouse stomped its four claws and blasted off at an extremely fast speed to dodge the steel ball's attack.
Watching the constantly surging tide of mutant mice, Liang Jing made a decision in her heart. She immediately attacked the Steel Beast Mouse with slow and continuous steel marbles, attracting its hatred. The speed got faster and faster, slowly opening up a distance from the mouse tide. Slowly, Liang Jing's running direction deviated from the direction of the mouse tide. Behind her, the Steel Beast Mouse was furious, chasing after Liang Jing without letting up, not slowing down at all.
He wants to lure out the Steel Behemoths one by one for a duel while also escaping the crisis of the mouse tide.
Originally sprinting on the eight-lane cement road, Liang Jing suddenly jumped over a two or three-meter-wide ditch beside him, carrying several hundred kilograms of heavy objects like a fierce cow. He landed in the scorching sun on the cracked mud of the lotus field. With a loud roar, he continued to provoke the Steel Fierce Mouse behind him, making it furious. His body suddenly exerted force, and his legs spun like two giant windmills at an extremely high frequency, even on the uneven and soft lotus field, his speed was not inferior to their desperate sprint on the cement road, and was much faster than the mouse tide. Gradually, he got farther and farther away from the mouse tide. The dry and withered lotus leaves on the field were left behind Liang Jing's running, broken branches and leaves flying everywhere, as if a tornado had passed by, leaving a trail of debris in its wake. Meanwhile, the Steel Fierce Mouse behind him was not slow either, and seemed to be gaining speed, even surpassing Liang Jing's forward speed.
Waaah! Waaah!
Bang! Bang!
Two mutated rats were brutally killed by the steel balls shot by Liang Jing, and two white life essences entered Liang Jing's body. After these two distant mutated rats, there were no other ordinary mutated rats, and Liang Jing had already far exceeded the range of the rat tide.
Ding...
【Violent Throw】: Burst forth with full body strength to throw the weapon in hand and attack the enemy, dealing severe damage to them, initial 100%.
Liang Jing's heart was filled with joy, the proficiency of 【Violent Throw】 had reached the intermediate level, and as long as he found a suitable miracle, he could break through to the advanced level, at which point its power would be even more formidable.
Splash!
Just like a heavy-duty punch card advancing, Liang Jing suddenly slammed on the brakes and stopped in his tracks. He put down the large canvas bag slung over his left shoulder, along with Ling Qinghe, and carelessly discarded the massive weapon 【Baroque's Sorrow】 behind him, ignoring Ling Qinghe beside him. After a moment of hesitation, he rummaged through his bag and pulled out a mask to wear.
The mask only covers the upper half of the mouth, and at first glance, it appears to be dark and sinister. The forehead is protruding, the nostrils are long and pointed, and there is a red glow in the eye sockets that seems to pierce through without being seen, adding an extra layer of protection to the eyes, making one feel as if they are staring into the devil's pupils. The forehead has wavy patterns etched into it, giving off an overall aura of ferocity and mystery.
Failed to scare away the steel mouse, but scared Ling Qinghe on one side, with eyes flashing different flavors.

The steel mouse behind saw Liang Jing stop, its sturdy and powerful limbs changing even faster and at a higher frequency, without any intention of stopping, like a leopard hunting at an extremely fast speed, as if it was not affected by the "Ghostly Face".
The steel barbarian mouse was sprinting continuously, under the illumination of two suns its entire body covered in shiny black steel needles that seemed to be moving with a ghostly light as it moved, layer upon layer of thick steel needles appeared to have excellent defensive capabilities. As it approached Liang Jing, its two small, glossy black eyes flashed with a hint of excitement, Liang Jing saw it clearly, seeming very human-like, its intelligence was indeed very high!
However, Liang Jing felt a bit amused. Can high intelligence be compared to humans? Although many scientific experiments use mice as test subjects because of their relatively low intelligence, even if they have evolved and become more intelligent, they still can't compare to humans, the "ancestors" of all living things.
Rumble!
Chirping and tweeting!
The increasingly close Liang Jinggang Steel Violent Mouse, its body suddenly inflated, thick steel hair underneath muscles quickly bulged out, instantly looking like Popeye after eating spinach; speed increased by nearly a factor of two!
