The place where the black shadow rushed out happened to be where Lei Xiaobai was standing just now. If he had hesitated for a moment longer, he would have been bitten by the black shadow.

"System prompt: Drilling Rat! Strength level: Eighth-grade high-level!" At this time, the system prompt informed Lei Xiaobai of the identity and level of the black shadow.

Lei Xiaobai's eyes narrowed. He didn't expect that he would encounter an eighth-grade high-level monster so quickly. He was confident that he could kill an eighth-grade mid-level monster, but he was unsure about the high-level monster.

That is equivalent to a level of strength five or six levels higher than him.

Lei Xiaobai looked around and saw that the black shadow had completely emerged from the ground, and he could see clearly what the black shadow looked like.

What I saw was a two-meter-long, pitch-black mouse, with hair all over its body shining like steel needles with a metallic sheen.

If you look carefully, you can see that each hair has some threads, which allows it to easily drill through rock formations, and when drilling, it can be pushed forward by the rock, allowing it to move faster.

At this time, the gopher was standing in front of Lin Qing, seemingly protecting him behind him. Lin Qing's eyes showed joy when he saw the gopher.

He raised his head and looked at Lei Xiaobai, regaining his contemptuous attitude again.

At this point, Lei Xiaobai also guessed that the burrowing rat was the battle pet of the people around Lin Qing. Thinking of this, Lei Xiaobai couldn't help but frown.

Generally speaking, if you want to conquer a battle pet, your level must be one level higher than that of the battle pet. In other words, a warrior who conquers an eighth-grade high-level burrowing rat must be at the lowest level of the Spirit-Devouring Realm.

Lei Xiaobai, a warrior of this level who was only at the third level of the Spiritual Devouring Realm, would certainly not be able to resist. Thinking of this, he also understood why the system mission was promulgated like that. At this time, he couldn't help but want to retreat.

At this moment, a slender figure suddenly appeared from the forest and jumped towards Lei Xiaobai and the others.

Seeing this scene, Lei Xiaobai stumbled and turned around to leave. However, seeing Lei Xiaobai make a move, the burrowing rat suddenly burrowed into the ground. It was extremely fast underground, even faster than Lei Xiaobai.

A lot.

Lei Xiaobai recalled Xiaohu, and then ran away quickly towards the distance.

"puff!"

However, at this moment, Lei Xiaobai felt something strange in the soil beneath his feet. He was startled, stamped his feet on the ground suddenly, and jumped up high.

At this moment, the earth and rocks on the ground beneath his feet suddenly spurted out, and then the figure of the burrowing rat spun out of it. It opened its big mouth and bit Lei Xiaobai in mid-air.

The two teeth are very long, with a sharp light shining on them, like two guillotines.

Lei Xiaobai looked at those two teeth and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He adjusted his body in mid-air and stabbed downwards with his sword.

"Ding!"

The sound of gold and iron clashing sounded, and Lei Xiaobai stabbed the burrower's tusks with his sword. The star sword, which had always been invincible, was now firmly blocked by the tusks.

However, Lei Xiaobai knew that there was a huge disparity in strength, and he never thought that he could hurt the burrower. He used his arms and the Star Sword to push his body out suddenly.

Lei Xiaobai turned around and landed firmly on the big tree behind him.

At this time, the momentum of the burrower disappeared, and it fell back to the ground, grinning at Lei Xiaobai.

The fighting method of the burrowing rat is to burrow into the ground, accumulate strength, rely on momentum to leave the ground, and penetrate the enemy with its long tusks while making sneak attacks.

Being off the ground and unable to make sneak attacks would greatly weaken its strength, so it saw Lei Xiaobai stop on the tree and stopped.
