Chapter 724 Descent into the Underground Palace (Part Eight)

• Right now, the underground palace had turned into a brutal, real-life war between men and giant rats. Calling it a war was generous—it was a rat tide slamming into the crowd. Hundreds upon hundreds of giant rats charged like maniacs, hurling themselves against the protective vigor energy without fear. Even with their skulls split and blood spraying, they kept ramming—savage and relentless.
• Worse, the rats were freakishly agile. They could leap ten, twelve feet high, blasting off like cannon shots into the shimmering vigor energy around the people. The impact was so heavy, some barriers shattered on the spot, and then came those razor fangs—tearing victims into scraps. Nothing left. No bones.
• In a blink, the hundred-plus survivors were cut down to mere dozens. The blood toll was brutal.
