In the ancient ruins on the outskirts of Krobel, the sergeants encountered fierce resistance from the ratmen. The ratmen seemed to know their predicament and, for the sake of the continuation of their race, were doing everything in their power to stop the terrifying upright apes' offensive.

In the underground network of tunnels, the battle between the two sides intensified. The ratmen, relying on their knowledge of the terrain, engaged in guerrilla warfare with the sergeants. Although they did not inflict any losses on the sergeants, they did delay the plan.

This place is too close to Krobel, and the ratmen don't even know what weapons they possess. So, to avoid any unforeseen complications, the academics offered a suggestion:

"Use the stored neutron canisters to inactivate the underground ratmen with neutrons."

Neutron bombs can kill armored and underground ratmen within structures within their effective range.

The wounded ratmen do not die immediately, but rather slowly and painfully. Without medical treatment, the wounded can survive for up to 7 days.

The duration of the neutron flux is very short. In the event of a battlefield attacked by tactical nuclear weapons such as neutron bombs, our side can quickly enter the target area to fight without worrying about radioactive contamination.

In other words, these tenacious ratmen would die within a week under the bombardment of the neutron flood. However, out of concern for the neutron flood, the higher-ups in Shangqiu discussed this suggestion further.

It's easy to wipe out the ratmen with a neutron flood, but if we wipe out the ratmen with a neutron flood today, will we wipe out humanity with neutrons tomorrow?

It is terrifying to lose the fear of weapons. It is like a mismatch between one's realm and strength, and one can easily fall into the demonic path.

"Next, we will state our position on the neutron inactivation of the subterranean ratmen..."

Inside the special meeting venue in Shangqiu, a bigwig looked around and said softly, "...Everyone can express their opinions on whether to use the neutron flood to clean up the ratmen."

The room fell silent immediately. No one spoke first; instead, they exchanged glances.

"I disagree with using neutron extermination. Our military forces can steadily eliminate the subterranean ratmen. Given more time, we can completely wipe them out..."

At this point, the electronic sand table showed the soldiers' advance, and it could be seen that under continuous attacks, the ratmen's activity area had been suppressed to the core position.

"...Give us some more time, and we can completely wipe out the ratmen. We'll use neutron inactivation, but I don't know if it will affect the artifacts created by the ancient civilization in the ruins."

His words made those around him fall into deep thought. The most valuable things in the ruins are the creations of ancient civilizations. They can cause rapid technological mutations in rabbits, triggering a technological singularity and allowing them to leap to another level in a short period of time.

"How about this? According to the habits of rats, they will hide the good stuff in their nests. And it seems that the social structure of the rat people is somewhat similar to a pyramid, so the ancient civilization's creations must have hit a large number of the core area. We will use neutron inactivation to exterminate the rat people outside the core area, and then hand over the core area to the army for a strong attack..."

"agree..."

"agree..."

.......

The compromise solution was accepted and was quickly handed over to professionals for calculation.

After all, compared to neutron bombs, this torrent of neutrons stored in a gravitational field container is a relatively unfamiliar weapon.

"We should use this power cautiously. It is a tool to achieve our strategic goals. It can be used, but only in a limited way... I would like to hear the suggestions from the academicians," the senior official expressed his opinion.

At this point, the bigwigs present turned their attention to the scientists who study biology. In such situations, it is necessary to consult these professionals and ask them for advice.

"Regarding the rat-men, personally, I don't oppose their extermination. Firstly, they are not naturally evolved creatures, but rather have undergone 'artificial' intervention, making them extremely aggressive and prolific..."

"...Just leave a small number of ratmen for research. As for their resistance to neutron radiation, under the catalysis of the red line, they are stronger than ordinary organisms, but only slightly stronger."

When living organisms are exposed to neutron radiation without protection, each tiny neutron is like an invisible bullet, bombarding the human body without the human's awareness. The released high-energy, high-speed neutron stream will tear the body apart at the microscopic level and destroy your genetic material, making it truly efficient and environmentally friendly.

"So, let's use precisely measured neutrons to deactivate the virus outside the core area, and let our soldiers get some rest. They must be exhausted from fighting in the underground environment for so long."

Although the sergeants are very capable, they are still human at heart, and their psychology has its limits. Fighting for a long time in the closed and narrow environment underground will cause their psychological pressure to increase sharply, and they may even develop a fear of confined spaces.

The longer the battle lasts, the greater the psychological pressure becomes. However, as the People's Army, they know why they are fighting, and their psychological resilience is far superior to that of the soldiers of the United States!

"Adjust the status to the best, and after the external ratmen are destroyed, immediately carry out a cleanup of the ratmen's core area to completely eliminate the underground ratmen."

Chapter 326 The Apocalypse of the Ratmen (Part 1)

Shangqiu Institute of Biology.

In a special radiation-proof room, a rat-man looked around in terror, its body trembling uncontrollably, sensing the fear of death.

Just as it suspected, countless dense bursts of fast neutrons bombarded its body in the air, invisible to the naked eye, shattering its DNA and killing its cells...

How is it?

"The test subject's physical data is declining, and he will soon lose his ability to move."

The two researchers recorded the rats' condition. After all, since they were going to use neutron inactivation, they needed to control the precise lethal radiation dose so that they could be eliminated cleanly and hygienically.

"By the way, what are they busy with over next door? Seven or eight 'white mice' have died in such a short time..."

The researcher recorded the information while asking questions out of curiosity.

"Testing on the rat-people..."

"What test?"

"The deterrent effect of cats on rat people."

"..."

As an evolution of rats, the rat-people still retain some instincts in their DNA, such as their fear of cats, which can be described as a bloodline suppression.

However, the ratmen are enormous, and cats are probably no match for them in terms of size. But the scent of a cat still has a certain deterrent effect on the ratmen.

In particular, after a researcher had a sudden inspiration to artificially synthesize large doses of the chemical scent of cats, the rats recalled the fear of being dominated by cats in ancient times, and were even scared to death.

This phenomenon is roughly equivalent to a cat getting hooked on catnip!

Sometimes biology is so amazing that it is beyond human comprehension, and human understanding of nature is still very limited.

As they spoke, the rat-man in the test chamber collapsed to the ground. The effects of neutron radiation were becoming apparent: inexplicable burn marks appeared on its body, cells were dying in large numbers, and its life was fading away...

The researcher glanced at the neutron radiation dose and frowned slightly.

"Truly an incredibly adaptable mouse..."

--------------------------------------

The rat-men, who are fighting the terrifying upright apes underground, are unaware that their doom is coming. All they know is that these terrifying enemies are becoming more and more frightening to them.

These terrifying upright apes exude a scent that terrifies the ratmen. Whenever this scent appears, the ratmen lose control of their bodies out of fear. Even if some ratmen manage to overcome their fear, they are quickly eliminated by the sergeant.

The biologists advised the sergeants not to allow the rat-men to develop resistance to the cat-like scent, a matter that needed to be taken into account, given the presence of catalytic enzymes.

Soon, under the deliberate attacks of the sergeants, the ratmen's minds were quickly implanted with the concept that "cat scent = death, escape = survival".

This concept spread rapidly among the rat people, even forming a concept similar to "meme attack," which spread among the rat population.

The ratmen remembered the terrifying rat-eating beast etched in their legends, the one that treated them like toys! They even suspected that beneath the helmets of the upright apes, the faces of that terrifying rat-eating beast might have evolved along with them.

"A hairless thing! Scary! Scary!"

In the core area of ​​the underground network tunnels, the ratman leader sensed something was wrong with the group. The ratmen were in very poor condition, and all of them were terrified of those hairless creatures.

These tall, upright apes are not only physically strong, but each one is also a master of combat, defeating the rat people so badly that they are utterly routed. Especially recently, the upright apes have used chemical agents, which have made the rat people collapse at the slightest touch. Experts have even begun to discuss whether to reduce the use of neutron inactivation and invest heavily in this pollution-free chemical agent.

The rat-man leader twitched his beard. He had recently caught the smell of the chemical odor spreading through the web tunnels, and a nameless fear gripped his heart. He felt as if a pair of terrifying eyes were watching him in the darkness, ready to devour him at any moment.

This fear, etched into their DNA, cannot be controlled at will; it can surge forth from the depths of their hearts at any moment, devouring the little remaining rationality of the rat-man leader.

"Loser! DEA! DEA!"

Following the rat-man leader's words, the defeated man was taken away and fed to the rat giant.

The screams and squeaks suppressed the restlessness of the other ratmen. The ratman leader stroked the cube in his arms, a treasure passed down from generation to generation of ratman leaders!

Back in his room, the ratman leader took out the cube, pressed his hand on it, and the cube immediately floated into the air. Unknown symbols appeared on the surface of the cube. The ratman reached out and touched these symbols, but soon the green symbols turned red.

The ratman leader, enraged, gripped the cube in his hand and slammed it to the ground. Then, like a deflated balloon, he picked it up again.

"Unravel the secrets of the cube..." These were the last words of the previous rat-man leader before he was killed, but it's clear the cube doesn't accept the rat-men.

As the leader of the ratmen, its intelligence surpassed that of the others; it sensed the approaching danger...

Just as it intended, the winch delivered two special neutron radiation dispersing devices underground, along with several experts.

After continuous computer simulations of the inactivation process, and based on expert calculations, the number of neutron inactivation directional devices was reduced from three to two...

These two directional neutron radiation generators can manipulate the gravitational field to direct the stored neutron flow in the desired direction, thereby creating precise kills and reducing the possibility of collateral damage. After the neutron flood has been radiating for 8 hours, the sergeants can wear special protective modules to enter the battlefield and clear out the still breathing ratmen.

However, the sergeants will likely be facing large amounts of "rotten flesh" at that time, and dying from radiation is not a peaceful scene.

"You've arrived?"

"Hmm... the environment here is terrible, but it's also perfect for those rats."

The technician, wearing a fully enclosed hood, grimaced. The narrow, enclosed mesh passages were so low that one had to duck to pass through. Bloodstains were everywhere in the passages, and the remains of some ratmen that had not yet been disposed of lay on the ground.

Even with the mask on, he could almost smell the stench of rotting flesh and blood, as well as the countless bacteria that bred in the air and the viruses carried by the rat-men.

"Let's go, let's finish our work quickly and go out to bask in the sun."

Chapter 327 The End of the Ratmen (Part 2)

Two neutron radiation generators were deployed at two key points in the underground network.

To maximize coverage of the area, the two launchers are positioned at a certain angle, covering the area in front of the ratmen's core.

Under the protection of the sergeants, the technicians conducted a final inspection of the equipment.

The launch device looks like a satellite dish, with a gravitational binding device filled with neutrons inside, and the power unit is located at the rear of the launch device.

The technicians adjusted the launcher's parameters while glancing around every now and then. The atmosphere was incredibly oppressive; the ground was covered in blood and fragments of some unknown organization, suggesting a battle had taken place here...

*Thud*... The technician looked down and stepped into a pool of colorful, sticky stuff, and his lips twitched involuntarily.

"Not used to it?"

The sergeant in charge of security glanced at the technician and said casually, "Just think of it as stepping in dog poop."

"I'd rather actually step in a pile of dog poop..." The technician suppressed his discomfort and fine-tuned the angle of the launch device.

"There is a situation!"

An alarm sounded over the communication channel, and three seconds later, bursts of gunfire rang out from the front.

BIUBIUBIU... The disposable weapon station mounted on top fired down at the charging ratmen. In the program settings, any heat source that is not recognized by the IFF and is still moving will be mercilessly strafed by them.

Considering the reloading problem of the high-top machine gun, a laser weapon that can be fired as long as it has electricity was ultimately used. As long as the cooling is adequate, the rate of fire of the laser weapon is also quite good. Moreover, the heat generated by the gun body can also be used for secondary power supply. Through the heat conversion device on the gun body, the heat energy is converted into electrical energy, which is then used to charge the superconducting battery on the ground via cables.

Powered by ground-based superconducting batteries, beams of purple laser light shone on the ratmen, burning their skin and flesh to shreds.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

The sound of shotgun shells echoed in the open space, accompanied by the distinctive squeaks of the underground ratmen.
