Feng Moxi swung her Golden Sword.
She slashed at the scurrying swarm of rats. Her golden light spun, repelling wave after wave of charging Mutant Rats.
The two stood back-to-back and began to fight.
The swarm of rats continued to grow.
BAM! BAM! BAM! The sounds of battle were incessant.
They fought as they retreated, but it was no use. The rats pressed in, forming a tight circle around them.
"How are there so many rats?" Feng Moxi couldn't help but ask. "Ning City is right next to the Capital City. Hasn't anyone ever come to clear them out?"
"Heh heh!" Chaoyang said, cutting down a Mutant Rat beside him.
His eyes turned grim. "Some people are black-hearted, black-livered, and black-lunged—far more sinister and shameless than you can imagine."
"Not only does everyone fight for themselves..."
"...but they're so afraid of others becoming stronger and threatening their interests that they've deliberately left this entire city to serve as a natural barrier. Hahaha!"
