Communication with these mutants was much smoother than cheese thought. In many ways, these rat people showed more flexibility than the mage imagined. Most of the time, they even accept the proposal proposed by the cheese company. This also gave the mage an illusion that he was communicating with a normal human being. Yes, they are human beings, but they subconsciously exclude them from human beings. So, the problem is. Who were these rat people? Or who were they when they were human beings?

    The meeting can''t go on indefinitely. After cheese showed enough sincerity, the atmosphere between the two sides of the meeting was not as tense as before. Even during the intermission, the rat men allowed Gloria and the mage to chat for a while, although this was under the care of four giant rat men.

    "Who are they? Are these people that I see now the leaders of all rat people today? " This is the most concerned problem of cheese. If these mutants were the managers of all the rodents, the spread of the plague that he was worried about would be largely solved. As long as these mutants control the range of activity of ordinary native rat humans, it may be easier to solve the plague than imagined.

    However, Gloria''s answer did not meet the mage''s expectations. Because of her own relationship, although the countess''s daughter here is also a prisoner now, to be honest, if she had not put herself in the opposite position with these mutant rat men in the beginning, she would have presided over the meeting. Even so, just a few days together is enough for Gloria to have a comprehensive understanding of the status quo of these mutant rat humans.

    After all, in this era, the great nobles, especially the local lords like the count of saloon, who have made great achievements and are kind to their neighbors, have great appeal on many issues. Although the rat people have become non-human creatures, they were also human beings after all, because they have retained the previous memory. Gloria, the last descendant of the saloon family, is in their eyes In fact, the status of the people''s Republic of China is very high. It also makes them hardly conceal any information in the face of Gloria.

    "In fact, they call themselves sobers, and as you can see, although sober people have the ability to guide the native rat people nearby, they can''t force them to restrain them as much as you want. And, according to them, because of the lack of food, the native rat people in the valley city began to spread around spontaneously. I''m afraid this happens in the whole count

    "So..." Let''s not talk about disappointment. If things really go as cheese expects, it''s really impossible. From the time he was caught in the Eastern District, the mage had noticed that even these mutant murans could not command like the superior and the subordinate even in the face of those irrational protozoans.

    "Have you ever asked who these sober people are? Do they have anything in common? "

    On hearing the mage''s question, Gloria did not answer directly. She pointed to the four giant rat men guarding them.

    "These four are the four whom I have spoken to before. Among them are two carpenters, a mercenary and a teacher. As you can see, I had the same idea with you before. When I first came here, I tried to talk to as many people as possible to understand their origins. However, it turned out that anyone, regardless of gender or age, might become a sober person. It''s like a kind of random selection, and their appearance is almost random. "

    "Well, it''s also possible. By the way, Gloria, are all these sober people the inhabitants of Valley City? " This problem is also very important for the mage. Only by understanding the transformation ratio between the mutant and the normal rat man can he further explore why there is a mutant rat man.

    "It''s not true. These sober people come from almost every part of the Earl''s command, and they all want to come to Xigu city for help after finding their reason. But they didn''t know that the whole town had become like this. " Said Gloria, lowering her head, as if frustrated by not helping the sober. As the daughter of the Lord, it is her responsibility to help the people in her territory since she was a child.

    Hearing the silence of cheese for a moment, he thought of some things. If these sober people did not choose to come to Xigu city after they were sober, they chose to take the native rat people around them to forage everywhere This idea made the mage fight a cold war. The brainless rat man can only be regarded as a formidable opponent, terrible but not invincible. But with these sensible commanders mixing in, the pressure on the border defense forces may be out of control. It''s very likely that not all people can control themselves like the sober people in the valley city after they find themselves and the people around them become horrible monsters. Fear and abandonment can lead them to malformed hatred for normal humans, as has been seen before cheese. And even the rat man in the valley city will not last long without a wise leader.

    "By the way, the sober leader, who is he?" Cheese has always been curious about the black haired mouse man, because in the first half of the meeting, that is, when both sides were nervous, it was almost entirely relying on the black mouse man to persuade other rat people to let the meeting continue. Without the black mouse man, the mage was sure that the communication would not be as successful as it is now."Do you mean Mr. Hal? He was a former City Hall official and one of the nobles loyal to the salon family. Before me I mean, I''ve seen him many times before the outbreak, and he''s one of my father''s most trusted subordinates. So I''m really happy to see him again Said Gloria.

    This makes sense. A person who has held an important position in the government naturally has prestige in the local area. And most of all, it seems that Mr. Hal has deep feelings for the sarons. This can be seen in his treatment of Gloria. With such a person to lead, it is not surprising that these sober people in Xigu city can do it now.

    "Cough..."

    As a light cough interrupted the conversation, the break was over. Like cheese, the sobers exchanged views on the issues just discussed during the break, and from their facial expressions, at least for now, the mutant rat humans are satisfied with the mage''s assurance. Gloria apologized and was taken back to the sobers by the other giant Murmans, and cheese was taken back by the four giant Murmans.

    After a dialogue with Gloria, the mage now knows more about these sober people, which also allows him to find their demands more accurately in the following communication. He clenched his right hand slightly. What the mage has to do now is to persuade these rat people to help themselves more. The possibility of uncontrollable sober people makes him more worried about the spread of the plague. He must work out an antidote faster. At least, ordinary people can no longer be infected.
