Ranking Of Kings: My Land Is SSS Rank - Chapter 703
703 Great Victory
“Kill more!”
The golden Straw man caught the straw hat again, and with a turn of its body and a shake of its arm, it threw the straw hat out again. With the help of the second push, the straw hat spun even faster, and its power became even more shocking.
Pfft, pfft, pfft…
The straw hat flying wheel flew out once again. The straw hats that covered the entire space turned into the most terrifying killing weapon at that moment. Under the gaze of countless people, they once again demonstrated the fragility of life. The heads of the rats were easily cut off, and the rats hiding underground were pulled out of the ground like radishes. Their heads were removed by the straw hats that looked like flying guillotines.
!!
“Collect!”
One by one, the Straw men reached out to catch the straw hats that returned and put them on their heads again. No blood was on the straw hats, and they still looked as simple as ever. The straw hat flying wheel killing technique had an extremely high requirement on one’s constitution. Throwing it out and then catching it in one’s hand tested one’s ability to use one’s strength in a mysterious way. If one’s arm couldn’t withstand it, it would be instantly shattered by the power contained in the straw hat.
Although some skill was involved, one could not be lacking in that kind of shocking power.
Those Straw men were still new, and their strength had not reached the peak. The killing technique of the straw hat flying wheel could only be used three times. If it was used one more time, the power contained in the straw hat would shatter their arms. Not only would they be unable to continue attacking, but it would also hurt their bodies.
Therefore, after three tries, the golden Straw man decisively ordered them to collect their straw hats.
But even so, after the straw hat flying wheels flew three rounds, the rice fields were already covered with corpses. There were corpses of fierce rats everywhere. The soil was soaked with blood and became muddy.
The three rounds of straw hat flying wheels almost wiped out the millions of rat army soldiers.
“Defeat the rat thieves!”
“Rat thieves, where are you running to?”
…
Under the continuous attacks of the killing technique, the dense rat army had become scattered. Many Straw men had already begun to attack the scattered fierce rats. Countless fierce rats were killed, and the situation was completely one-sided.
“It seems like we won’t be using the backup we prepared. I was afraid that these Straw men won’t be able to resist the massive rat army, but I never thought they would have such a tyrannical killing technique. It’s a pity that the hidden mastermind didn’t come out. If we could also deal with that guy, this crisis would have been resolved perfectly.” Zhou Qing said with a smile as he looked at the battle in the rice fields.
Before that, he naturally could not pin all his hopes on the Straw men. He had only used them as the first line of defense and had prepared other trump cards. Once an unexpected situation occurred, there would immediately be an army from the surroundings to provide support at any time.
However, they didn’t expect the army of Straw men to be so violent. When faced with the rat army’s attack, they instantly went berserk and even used a terrifying killing technique. In just a few rounds, the rat army was killed.
The strength of the Straw men had completely overturned his impression of them. It could be said that he was greatly shocked.
Therefore, the hidden cards were useless.
However, Zhou Qing hoped that there would be more such surprises.
“I didn’t expect these Straw men to be so powerful! If possible, we need to have such an army of Straw men to guard the rice fields in the future. This way, no enemy will dare to destroy the rice fields and food anytime. The Straw men are simple and persistent by nature, and their greatest obsession is to protect the rice fields and the crops. With this, it’s not impossible to keep the Straw men in the Kingdom of Dawn for a long time and make them our strongest allies.” Li Xiang said thoughtfully.
He had never thought of completely subduing the Straw men or turning them into his subordinates.
The Straw men were simple and honest, but they were not stupid. As long as they treated the Straw men with sincerity, they could gain their trust and the Straw men could become the Human race’s strongest ally, helping the Human race protect their rice fields and food.
No powerhouse could be perfect without any weakness. The obsession of the Straw men could be considered a weakness, but it was also a strength.
The fact that the Straw men were willing to leave the valley meant they did not mind going to other rice fields to protect them. As long as they didn’t resist, they could continuously send the Straw men into the various cities of the Kingdom of Dawn.
At the very least, the rice fields were safe and free from the intrusion of fierce beasts and ferocious birds.
Li Xiang remembered that when he wanted to steal the golden spiritual rice, he had to put in a lot of effort. Before he succeeded, he had to cooperate in the air, get the help of mythical beasts, and even with bait.
If it was already so difficult for someone with Li Xiang’s strength, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens for other enemies to destroy the rice fields silently.
“If that’s the case, any village or town within a hundred million miles could be used to open up rice fields and plant crops. As long as they are protected by the Straw men, the crops will be extremely safe even if they are exposed to the wilderness. If so, the impact will definitely be huge!” Huang Chengyan’s eyes lit up. He instantly thought of the benefits of forming an alliance with the Straw men.
Other things aside, just having the other 1000 or so cities under the protection of the Straw men would, to a large extent, guarantee a bumper harvest every year. At that time, they would be able to feed more civilians, and their living standards would also significantly increase.
Food was the foundation to stabilize everything in a chaotic world.
No matter how strong an army was, they would not be able to fight if they did not have food to sustain their lives.
The rice fields were outside the city. Once stable, more wastelands could be opened up to become fertile land.
“Yes, that’s true! In the future, food should not be a problem for us in our territory. Instead, it should become a huge advantage and bargaining chip to attract more refugees to join us.” Zhou Qing nodded in agreement.
“It’s a pity that we didn’t draw out the mastermind. I’m certain that some foreign races have already infiltrated the city. Furthermore, their methods are extremely brilliant.” Li Jing suddenly said.
“Hmph! Don’t worry. As long as they entered, they’ll be exposed sooner or later.” Li Xiang sneered.
“There are rats underground!”
At that moment, the golden Straw man suddenly looked down at the ground. Its gaze seemed to be able to see through the scene underground.
Suddenly, a golden bamboo staff appeared in its hand. Silver-white threads were wrapped around the bamboo staff. As it swung its arm, the bamboo stick turned into a fishing rod.
At the end of the silver thread was a silver fishing hook. It was usually hidden in the bamboo staff, so no one would have expected it to have a fishing function.
Shua!
The golden Straw man waved its hand, and the fishing hook naturally went through a hole in the ground.
