730 Violent Mutated Mushroom (1/2)

The big rat screamed in pain and struggled as hard as it could. However, the vines which had pierced into its body showed no sign of relaxing, only drilling deeper and deeper.

In a couple of minutes, the rat gradually stopped struggling.

After that, the parts of the vines which were stuck inside the rat's body started turning red, the redness quickly expanding upward.

It was like a backstream of blood caused during an intravenous drip… The mushroom was clearly drinking the big rat's blood.

Lin Qiao watched those red vines drain the big rat within a short span of time.

She glanced around the mushroom, wondering where the dead bodies of the other animals that the mushroom had drained were. The other high-leveled mutated plants had more or less dead bodies around them, but the area around the mushroom was perfectly clean.

While Lin Qiao was observing the area around the mushroom, the mushroom withdrew its vines, then threw the rat's drained body near its roots. After that, the soil near the mushroom's roots sook and cracked, and then, the large mushroom uprooted itself!

A couple of strong roots supported the mushroom, underneath which was a hole. A stench which was the mixture of the rotten mud and decayed dead bodies gushed out of the hole, making Lin Qiao speechless.

Obviously, the mushroom was able to move!

The large mushroom got itself out of the soil, then rolled up the dead rat with its roots and threw it into the stinky hole. After that, it sat back onto the hole.

After sitting back down, the mushroom's roots stirred the soil to cover themselves, also to cover the traces that they left just now.

What a smart mushroom!

Lin Qiao was surprised that the mushroom did not only drain its prey, but also covered all the traces! Apart from that, it stayed on that one spot, pretending to be unable to move!

The smart mushroom had a rich meal, then happily buried the dead rat near its roots to nourish its roots. It had no idea that its secret moves had been witnessed by the invisible Lin Qiao, who was hiding nearby in the woods.

As the smart mushroom sat back in the middle of the clearing, Lin Qiao prepared to leap off the tree to harvest it. But suddenly, some slight noises were heard from the woods that made Lin Qiao stop.

She stopped, because what was coming this time was not like that big rat. The rat was lured to the mushroom, but this second visitor was coming with a strong intention of killing. Clearly, it was a predator instead of a prey which was attracted by the mushroom.

The visitor approached with a strong, fierce vibe, without making any sound.

The smart mushroom seemed not to realize that a predator was coming at it. It was relaxing its mushroom cap leisurely and lazily.

'Here it goes!'

Lin Qiao turned to the predator and soon saw a dark and large figure crawling to the edge of the clearing.

The smart mushroom which was still relaxing its cap suddenly froze. Within a blink, it jumped out of the ground, shrank its cap, and ran toward the other side.
