Free Web NovelChapter 573: Chapter 572: Helping a small base 4
They’re still kids, but it’s indeed good to have something real for their training; unfortunately, they couldn’t really deal with mutant rats because those rats could move very fast.
The kids had already been training for months, but because they’re still small kids, their mobility is still limited.
Sure, they could already run very fast; however, those mutant rats were still faster than them.
So, they could only try to deal with those ordinary rats first, as even those rats are already very aggressive and could still move very fast.
If they could really deal with a lot of ordinary rats already, then they could also try dealing with smaller mutant rats afterwards.
Since they also wanted to try, as long as they had the permission of their guardians, the next time they had to deal with rats, some people would certainly watch over them to avoid any accidents. freewebnoveℓ.com
"Ok! I’ll ask mom later!" Sophie immediately said.
The others also nodded, and Ashlee even added, "Dad will certainly agree because brother had already agreed."
"Yes, Mom too," Sophie said.
"Yes, Aunt will certainly agree," Theo added.
"Yes, my uncles will agree too," Nash said.
"Yes, sister will certainly agree," Lisa also said.
Luciel chuckled a bit and said, "You kids really knew who to ask." freewebnøvel.coɱ
The kids really knew who they were asking because they would ask him every time they wanted something, because they knew that once he agreed, their guardians would probably agree.
Well, as long as some people were left to watch over them, then they wouldn’t be in danger.
They also have their own protection items, so the risk of being in danger would be lower.
After what he said, the kids just grinned and didn’t say anything more after their thoughts were exposed.
Luciel didn’t mind them and just continued eating snacks while also listening to what Treyton and the others were talking about outside with the fire user that opened the gate for them.
The fire user was apparently the leader of the small base; that’s why he was the one who was talking with Treyton and Yang. They were currently talking about why the rats had attacked their base.
According to the leader of the small base, no one went out because the rain had just stopped and most of the people in their base were still fixing some things in their base that were destroyed because of the heavy rain and strong winds that had raged for days.
So, they’re also not sure why those rats suddenly attacked them, because no one had been followed and no one had provoked those rats at all.
So, they only thought that those rats were probably hungry and were currently looking for food; that’s why they were attacked.
It had indeed been raining for many days, so if those rats also didn’t go out because of the rain, then they were probably very hungry already, so after the rain, they also came out to look for food. As for the small base that they were in, they were probably targeted because they were in the range of the rats and also because they don’t have much defense against the mutant rats.
If they hadn’t happened to be passing by, the people in the small base probably wouldn’t survive.
Even if there were survivors, it would only be very few. When they came, they were already planning to evacuate, but even if they had started to evacuate, they only had a few cars ready and they only had a few capable fighters; so once those fighters were defeated, even if the others had started running away already, those mutant rats would be able to catch up.
Those rats were already very aggressive, probably because of their hunger, so they certainly wouldn’t let go of those people even if they were already running away.
And sure enough, the leader of the base was thanking them again and again after saying that the rats probably attacked them because they were looking for food.
Afterwards, Yang asked the base leader what they planned to do later on.
With the attack of the mutant rats, it became very obvious that just with their numbers and capability, they couldn’t defend themselves at all against bigger threats.
So, the base leader became silent a bit and finally said that they would look for a bigger base to stay at.
However, the leader was obviously very resistant to the idea but still said it because they really couldn’t survive if there was another similar attack.
Seeing the leader’s reluctance, Yang asked about it and Luciel heard that it was because most of the people in the small base were actually from those slightly bigger bases, but they left because they couldn’t survive there or just because they don’t want to continue handing over their hard work, as the division of rules of those bases were unfair.
Some also experienced more than just those exploitations, and they were also abused by the abusive nature of those bases, so they left and they had gathered in the area where they were in.
The place they were in is far from the places where they could collect supplies, but it was also far from zombies and other things, so they were able to survive even though not all of them were very strong.
However, with the attack of mutant rats, they had to look for a bigger base to go to because bigger bases have more people who could defend against such rats or other similar attacks in the future.
They were clearly reluctant, so Treyton suggested that they could go to the North Base if they still have enough energy to move to a far place; if they don’t, then they could also go to another closer base.
Yang suggested the base that they had just been to with a woman as their leader.
That base that they had just visited before they were trapped because of the weather was clearly bigger than the base that they had visited before it, and it was also closer.
