This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 500 - 304: Demigod Giant Rat

"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."

In the center of the Rat Tribe, amid the dim mist, the fourth giant rat was rapidly mutating under the infusion of divine power, but it also endured immense pain.

Since there were only two giant rats left, the Vine God dared not infuse too much this time, occasionally sprinkling some liquid to help the giant rat repair its body injured by the rapid transformation.

This giant rat had quite good bone structure. After a period of infusion, its body length reached twenty-eight meters, transforming into a dreadful giant beast, its sharp tusks resembling stalactites, glistening coldly.

Seeing that its condition was still good, the Vine God began to infuse it with divine soul power.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."

The giant rat squealed even more fiercely, its sharp and painful cries instilling fear throughout the Rat Tribe's giant rats, who all retreated into the depths of their burrows, trembling.

The giant rat's soul expanded rapidly, and its strength grew quickly until it entered the demigod realm.

The Vine God observed the state of this giant rat and muttered to himself, "Can't infuse anymore, it will explode if I do."

Having learned from the previous two giant rats' sudden deaths, the Vine God knew that this giant rat had reached its limit for rapid transformation, and any further forced infusion of divine power and soul would certainly cause it to explode.

Although the Vine God was not very satisfied with this outcome, a demigod giant rat was still quite powerful. After it adapted to this realm for a while, there might be a chance for further enhancement.

"You can leave now."

The vines entangling the demigod giant rat loosened, and the demigod giant rat glanced at the last giant rat and the Divine Vine before finally bowing to the Divine Vine like a human, then swiftly left the mist with amazing speed.

The remaining giant rat showed a longing look in its eyes and awkwardly bowed to the Vine God as well.

"Don't worry, you'll have your turn too."

The Divine Vine said, and then began to infuse the last giant rat with divine power and soul power.

After a period of time, this giant rat also transformed continuously, becoming a demigod, but like the previous giant rat, any further step would cause an explosion.

"Let it be, two demigod giant rats will barely suffice. Whether you can become a true Mouse God in the future depends on your own destiny."

The Vine God retracted the vines, and the giant rat gratefully bowed to the Vine God before leaving the mist as well.

"Swoosh..."

The Vine God shrunk again, clinging to the boulder, looking just like an ordinary old vine.

The hazy mist dispersed, and the ancestral land of the Rat Tribe returned to calm.

The two demigod giant rats dashed into the nearby forest, urgently needing a large amount of food because their increased strength and size resulted in greater consumption, requiring a lot of food to sustain.

Within the Rat Tribe, the tribesmen watched the silhouettes of the two demigod giant rats, feeling an immeasurable boost in their sense of security and belonging.

Although the Rat Tribe had yet to see the emergence of a true Mouse God, the presence of these two demigod giant rats provided initial security to the tribe.

Should one of the giant rats become a true Mouse God in the future, the Rat Tribe would then be truly complete.

"Thank you, Vine God!"

Hui Shu led all the tribesmen in bowing to the Divine Vine once again, everyone harboring gratitude and reverence towards the Divine Vine.

With the Divine Vine and the demigod giant rats around, Hui Shu was filled with confidence and hope for the future of the tribe.

...

Southern Wilderness, Great Swamp.

The Vine Tribe's fleet of nine large boats sailed along the waterway between the river and the Great Swamp for three days, during which they faced dangers from reef collisions, fierce water beasts, and strange aquatic plants before finally entering the vast expanse of the Great Swamp.

"Splash..."

The large boats advanced through the wide Great Swamp, encountering countless aquatic plants and floating waterweeds along the way.

Unlike rivers and lakes, the Great Swamp had few solid grounds to be found; some areas appeared lush with vegetation but were actually filled with rot and water underneath, and stepping carelessly could easily lead to being engulfed by the swamp.

"Hiss..."

A snake as thick as a water tank hid among the waterweeds, coldly eyeing the fleet ahead, its black tongue flicking in and out intermittently.

But it dared not attack the people on the boats because a giant eagle circling above the fleet posed too much of a threat to it.

"Gurgle, gurgle..."

Below the water, a fish larger than the boat glided slowly, having followed the fleet for a long time, yet it still dared not overturn one of the boats because it too feared the giant eagle circling above.

Besides the snake and the large fish, many other creatures living in the Great Swamp found the fleet intriguing, but those with a bit of intelligence held back, lurking secretly for the right opportunity.

As for the odd and not-so-powerful creatures, they continuously harassed the fleet.

When the fleet passed through a relatively narrow waterway, from the dense vegetation on both sides, bean pod-like plants launched a sudden attack.

"Pop, pop, pop..."

Fruit resembling honey locust pods burst open, their seeds shooting out with terrifying force and speed.

"Get down!"

Jing Jie was very alert, and almost at the moment those pods exploded, he immediately shouted loudly and pulled Old Witch to the deck.

The warriors of the fleet were elites from the fishing team, and upon hearing Jing Jie's shout, they immediately dove to the ground simultaneously, shielding their heads with their hands.

Even with their quick reaction, some people were still struck by the high-speed flying seeds, letting out muffled groans.

"Pop, pop, pop..."

A small portion of those seeds hit the fleet's warriors, while most splattered in all directions, some striking the sails, some hitting the railings and deck, while others fell into the water.

Once all the seeds ceased scattering, Jing Jie slowly stood up.

Jing Jie picked up a seed and marveled, "What a formidable thing, if I hadn't been on guard all along, we would have suffered greatly."

Old Witch also stood up, picking up a few seeds and examining them closely, saying, "This is a kind of plant never seen before, help me collect some seeds and the plant's stem and leaves, root, I'll take them back for study, maybe they can be used to make witch medicine."

"Alright, we'll collect them immediately."

Jing Jie held great respect for Old Witch, and along the journey, Old Witch had resolved numerous issues for them.

He immediately sent people to gather some seeds and uprooted a whole plant.
