The Ratmen's Ruined Capital Is Founded

More and more towns are being attacked by unidentified objects, and the traces are becoming increasingly clear.

The stolen food, the Gnaw remains, or the corpses that are nothing but bones.

Rumors about the rat-man are growing stronger.

It finally attracted considerable attention in the Steam City.

The foundation dispatched a special task force, along with investigators trained at the Miskatonic School, to conduct the investigation.

Francis, who was nearly fifteen years old, was among them.

As the investigation deepened...

The more they discovered, the more extraordinary things they found.

Hollowed-out caves, interconnected grottoes, and a large number of foul-smelling corpses.

The deformed rats are getting bigger and bigger.

During this investigation, both the task force and the trained investigators suffered numerous casualties.

Finally, they discovered the legendary ratmen in a cave.

It had a body shape indistinguishable from a human, walked upright, had a sharp mouth and teeth, cunning eyes, and even wore tattered clothes and carried weapons.

The first direct confrontation between humans and Skaven Ratmen.

The news quickly spread throughout the steam civilization, causing a huge uproar.

The operation to eradicate the rat people has officially begun.

But the ratmen's development has exceeded their expectations; this should not be called an extermination, but a war.

The bells of God's grace have rung for the twelfth time.

The Skaven Ratmen, having accumulated over a long period, have now become a massive group.

They became fluent in the language and mastered some of the technology plundered from the Steam City.

Although in their hands, this technology is far inferior to that of humans, and because of their strange understanding and personality, it has even begun to develop in another direction.

Meanwhile, due to the distortion caused by the contamination of Magic Energy energy, anomalies with magical talents were born among the Skaven Ratmen.

They can manipulate corrupted Magic Energy to cast all sorts of strange dark spells and intentionally cause physical deformities.

Similar to those Potions among humans who can draw power from Cthulhu Dreams.

They are simply not as powerful as the established Potions; the Skaven Ratmen still have a lot of room for development.

They can't compete in technology or magic, but the Skaven Ratmen still have their own advantages.

Because they evolved from a mutation caused by pollution, the Skaven Ratmen gradually developed a constitution that allowed them to resist, or rather, adapt to, the Death World.

They can leave the Land of New Life and survive in the Death World Continent, filled with the Mist of Lost Direction and negative emotions.

Moreover, the Skaven Ratmen's personality is like a collection of all the negative traits.

They are cruel, insidious, cowardly, stupid, shameless, selfish, and prone to backstabbing.

This applies not only to humans or other life forms, but also to all other rat-people.

To survive in the continent of the Death World, they have moved their lair elsewhere.

The Skaven Ratmen have another major characteristic: their terrifying numbers.

Therefore, the war between Skaven Ratmen did not yield direct results.

A protracted tug-of-war ensued between humans and rat-men.

The Skaven Ratmen launched an attack on the city using previously dug tunnels and the city's sewer system.

The smaller towns on the outskirts were even directly occupied.

However, humans quickly wiped out all the ratmen and reclaimed the territory.

The two sides fought fiercely, employing every means at their disposal.

Although humans still hold a greater advantage.

However, these Skaven Ratmen cannot be completely eradicated; they can move outside the Land of New Life, putting humanity at a significant disadvantage.

The only thing that could bring an end to the war, and that both sides fear, is the day of the Great Ruin and the Eldritch Beings, monstrous creatures that roam the Death World.

This war lasted for several years.

During this time, the Skaven Ratmen had already built their own ruined cities on the barren land, cities shrouded in stench.

They also explored outwards, discovering the Sea of Death and the Mountains of Madness.

It even offended the Unspeakable things in these places.

Meanwhile, the thirteenth and final chime of the Blessing Bell, belonging to the Skaven Ratmen, rang out in their ruined city.

The Skaven Ratmen have completed their final evolution.

I've come to realize that there are things in this world that go far beyond fear.

The rats, with their far-sighted vision, decided to stop their tug-of-war with humans and instead focus on developing and strengthening themselves.

The Skaven Ratmen, the day after the thirteenth chime.

The Skaven Ratmen Empire was established.

The ruined city they built on the wasteland became the capital of their empire, known as the Ratmen's Ruined Capital.

And it took the initiative to end the all-out tug-of-war with humanity.

Although humans are unwilling to admit it, they are helpless to change it.

After all, they cannot interfere in areas outside the Land of New Life.

Forced to passively accept their fate, a race called the Skaven Ratmen was born in this absurd world.

Shen Hui gazed at the historical changes of the Death World, filled with emotion.

More than a decade has passed since the first mutant rats appeared until now, when the Skaven Ratmen have established their empire.

"Time flies; it's only been a few hours for me."

Now that the Skaven Ratmen have been established, Shen Hui's goal can be considered achieved.

Although they are not strong right now.

But the Skaven Ratmen will surely multiply and spread to every corner of the Death World.

They also developed their own unique Skaven Ratmen.

There will be many things that can be developed by then.

Today, the Skaven Ratmen are like the cornerstone of a larger creative space.

This is the expansion of one's worldview.

He helped the Skaven Ratmen evolve a total of thirteen times.

It cost Shen Hui nearly nine thousand units of World Origin Power.

If it allows a race to exist, then it's worth the cost.

At the same time, the Death World Will immediately responded.

[The Skaven Ratmen is established; a new race is added to the Death World; the world-building is expanded.]

[The Death World Will has been strengthened, and the Power of Rules has been enhanced.]

"Now that the Skaven Ratmen have established their own religion, the Great Horned Rat cannot be left behind in worshipping their god."

Looking at the notification from the Death World Will that appeared, Shen Hui muttered to himself.

However, creation isn't possible now; the Great Horned Rat is a very powerful being.

They were beings who participated in the destruction of the world and even rose to the status of Chaos Gods.

It's estimated that a level 6 Death World is currently too small to accommodate it.

Besides, I don't have any extra resources right now.
