The System Is One Year Ahead Of Schedule, But It’S Not The End Of The World Yet!

Chapter 11: Rank Nine Mutant Rat King!

At the checkout counter, Chen Mo finally saw how expensive this so-called Supreme Combo was.

While eating, he didn't feel it, but when he saw the price, it was terrifying.

This Supreme Combo was actually priced per person, with an average price of up to one hundred thousand.

For two people, it was two hundred thousand, and with service charges and such, it was suddenly over two hundred thousand.

Chen Mo originally thought that the dining fee might be relatively expensive, but it should be settled with a few thousand.

He never thought that a meal could cost two hundred thousand in one go.

"This Supreme Combo is too expensive." Walking out of the restaurant, Chen Mo couldn't help but say.

"That private room is usually prepared to entertain guests with special status. The price of the combo and such are all imaginary numbers that no one cares about." Liu Qinlan said with a faint smile.

"It's embarrassing to eat up a hundred thousand in one go." Chen Mo laughed.

"This is called consuming first and then serving. Since I invited you to help, this is the current period's thank-you gift. There's nothing to be embarrassed about." Liu Qinlan said nonchalantly. "Darling, where do you want to go next?"

"I don't have anything else to do. I'll just buy some daily necessities and go home. I'll accompany you wherever you want to go." Chen Mo said with a faint smile.

"Then accompany me..."

Liu Qinlan's words were interrupted by a sudden ringing of her phone.

"Hello... Yes, I'm at Ziyu Pavilion. What's wrong? Okay... I got it, I'll be right there."

Hanging up the phone, Liu Qinlan looked apologetically at Chen Mo and said, "I'm sorry, my dad suddenly called me back. I don't know what's going on. Let's meet again tomorrow."

"Could it be that your uncle found out about us eating here?" Chen Mo guessed.

"It's unlikely. The people in this restaurant don't know me, so it's impossible for them to know. I'll find out when I get back. How about I send you back first?"

"No need, I'll just take a taxi back later. There's a supermarket nearby, so I'll go buy some things." Chen Mo refused.

"Alright then, I'll leave first. Goodbye."

After bidding farewell to Liu Qinlan, Chen Mo walked towards the nearby supermarket.

He planned to buy some daily necessities and complete today's daily task (1).

Just as he approached the supermarket, he immediately received a system prompt.

[System Prompt: Detected a large amount of daily necessities ahead, but there is a Mutant Beast Legion led by a Rank Nine Mutant Rat King. The host's strength is vastly inferior to the opponent. Please leave as soon as possible.]

"Which one is stronger, the Rank Nine Mutant Rat King or the previous Rank Nine Beast King?" Chen Mo curiously asked the system.

[System Prompt: Generally speaking, for the same type of Mutant Beast, the mutant variant is stronger than the non-mutant variant. However, it is not simple to compare Mutant Beasts of different types.]

"I see, will the final rewards for taming the Rank Nine Beast King and the Rank Nine Mutant Beast King be the same?"

[System Prompt: The main task (1) 'Taming Mutant Beasts' only requires the rank, so the rewards will be given based on the rank. As long as the ranks are the same, whether the Mutant Beast is a variant or not, the rewards will be the same.]

"That's good then."

If the rewards for the variant are higher than the normal one, Chen Mo might have to find another Rank Nine Mutant Beast as a pet.

Ignoring the system's warning, Chen Mo calmly entered the supermarket.

After entering the supermarket, Chen Mo immediately activated his X-ray glasses. He wanted to see where the so-called Rank Nine Mutant Rat King was in the supermarket. If he could kill this future Rank Nine Mutant Rat King, he might be able to obtain a wave of great rewards.

This supermarket is quite popular, with a constant stream of people coming and going.

To the point that after Chen Mo increased the level of his X-ray glasses, all he could see were skeletons, like a night parade of one hundred ghosts.

Fortunately, he had already been taught by Liu Qinlan before, so he was somewhat adapted.

He didn't pay attention to the skeletons around him, but instead scanned the ceiling, the floor beneath his feet, and the surrounding walls.

In broad daylight, these mice were likely hiding in these hiding places.

However, the supermarket was too big, and Chen Mo walked around with his X-ray vision for a while, but didn't see a single mouse.

Just when he was starting to doubt the reliability of the system's prompts, he finally spotted a mouse.

At this moment, the mouse was hiding in a tunnel it had dug behind the wall.

However, this mouse's head did not display the title of Rank Nine Mutant Rat King, so it was obviously just an ordinary lackey.

Chen Mo didn't pay attention to it and instead scanned the nearby area. Since he had seen one mouse, the other mice should be nearby.

Sure enough, Chen Mo soon saw a group of mice gathering behind the nearby walls.

However, among this group of mice, there was still no so-called Rank Nine Mutant Rat King.

"With such a big supermarket, it seems that the food is indeed good enough to fatten up so many mice."

Through his X-ray vision, Chen Mo could see that the mice behind the walls were all plump.

After confirming that there was no Mutant Rat King in this nest of mice, Chen Mo could only continue searching.

But if someone were paying attention to his actions at this time, they would find it strange.

Because since entering the supermarket, apart from looking at the ceiling and the floor, he was constantly staring at the surrounding walls, not at all like a normal person shopping in a supermarket.

Fortunately, the supermarket was big enough and had so many surveillance cameras that no one was specifically paying attention to his behavior.

Just when Chen Mo had almost finished circling the supermarket, he finally found the Rank Nine Mutant Rat King.

It must be said that a Rat King is a Rat King, and Chen Mo admired its awesomeness.

Because it wasn't hiding behind any walls at all, this little guy dared to directly enter the surrounding rice area in broad daylight.

Since this area was piled up with many bags of rice, unless the bags were moved, it was really hard to see it.

At this point, it had already gnawed through the bottom bag of rice and was stealing the rice.

"Wow, such a big rat?"

Chen Mo was shocked to see this rat because it was almost as big as a cat.

"No wonder it evolved into a Mutant Rat King, it really has some capital."

Although he had discovered the Rat King, it was currently hiding among a pile of rice bags, so Chen Mo couldn't just directly attack it. He needed to move the bags of rice a bit.

But moving the bags of rice might startle the Rat King below and make it run away.

Chen Mo decided to further enhance his attributes to ensure that this guy couldn't escape from under his nose.

After all, although his attributes were already high for a human at this point, animal attributes have different focuses.

"To kill this kind of rat, with my current strength, I should be able to easily crush it with a single kick. I'll focus on agility, otherwise I might not be able to keep up with its speed."
