Chapter 290: The Characteristics of Corpse Worm

Dr. Zhao saw the urgency in Zhang Ye's demeanor and knew he was indeed at his wit's end.

He took a deep breath and then said seriously, "Actually, there's an approach we could try, which is to use the natural enemies of rats to control their numbers."

"Natural enemies?" Zhang Ye was momentarily taken aback, "You mean cats? Eagles? Or snakes? Can these creatures handle so many rats?"

Dr. Zhao shook his head, "Cats and eagles are for dealing with ordinary rats, but they probably won't be very effective against mutant rat swarms."

"I remember you mentioned before that apart from the Mutant Canine, another common Mutant Beast in the city evolved from what used to be feral cats."

"Hmm."

"These feral cats all look like leopards now."

"They mostly hide in those abandoned high-rise buildings, lying low during the day and emerging at night. People out on missions usually avoid them."

"That's it."

A smile crept onto Dr. Zhao's face.
