Chapter 10, we are now being held hostage by a snake

"No!" Shan, with uncertainty and a look of surprise, said: "Is he writing something?"

Johnson and A-Chuan each held a machete, yet at this moment, they were both drenched in sweat, lacking any confidence to defeat each other

Others felt a tightening in their hearts and quickly turned around to look, but saw nothing; Xu Jing had already vanished without a trace

Hmph! Gail turned her head away, unwilling to speak to him any further

Hiss—! Hiss—! Hiss—! ... ...

Hoo ... ...

"Stop looking," Johnson said as he took out the map, searching for a route. He glanced at everyone and whispered, "I can feel it; it hasn't left, but is hiding in the shadows, quietly observing us."

What does it want to do? Others have also noticed.

It urges us to continue forward in search of the blood orchid

If we do not go, it will kill us

The others, feeling helpless, followed behind Johnson, step by step, carrying the remaining supplies.

Fortunately, Xu Jing did not make any moves indicating an intention to attack, which relieved everyone in the expedition team.

Perhaps due to the reason of time travel, Xu Jing's memories of his past life have become very vivid and clear. Although six years have passed, he has not forgotten a single bit of the English he learned in his previous life

"It's here, we're doomed!" Kerr trembled uncontrollably, almost in tears as he spoke

Jordan questioned, "What is its purpose? Why do we need to search for the Blood Orchid?"

Indeed. Jack nodded, his eyes wide open as he said: "The immortal flower has already entered its food chain, leading to a certain miraculous evolution."

Xu Jing, the snakehead, stood tall, looking down at them with a cold gaze that instilled a heavy sense of pressure in everyone present

Oh my, he wouldn't take the opportunity to eat us, would he

Does this count as a discovery that can shock the entire world

In other words, we are currently being held hostage by a snake

Everyone's expression became tense, their gazes fixed intently on Xu Jing, feeling as if their footsteps were weighed down by lead, somewhat unresponsive to their commands

At this moment, Xu Jing's swift hiss caught everyone's attention, as it flicked its serpentine tail and struck fiercely at a tree on the edge of the jungle, which was large enough for three or four people to embrace.

What instilled in them an extra sense of fear was that this giant python was clearly different from other pythons; its scales, arranged in a striking pattern, resembled metal, imparting a sense of weight and hardness.

At this moment, the members of the expedition team all wore expressions as if they had seen a ghost, standing dazed in place, each with an incredibly vivid complexion

Do not keep staring at it, stay calm, and whatever you do, do not provoke it

Hiss ~ !

While searching for supplies earlier, he discovered Livingston's belongings, which included a handgun and a satellite phone, but he pretended not to know and concealed them, not informing anyone

Am I still not awake

Click!

Behind them was the surging Toku River, and the path ahead was blocked, leaving them momentarily trapped in a dire situation

Kerr scratched his shaved head vigorously with both hands and asked, "Do we have no other choice? I want to go home!"

"Idiot!" Gale muttered under his breath, gritting his teeth as he said, "Let us not forget our current status, gentlemen; we are being held captive."

Everyone gasped in shock, their expressions blank, feeling a chill throughout their bodies. If this tail were to strike them, it would undoubtedly mean certain death, with no one able to escape unscathed

The crowd was discussing animatedly, and although they were still quite tense, they all unconsciously let out a sigh of relief

Jordan took a deep breath and said: "Regardless of Weihe Venture Capital, this can attract better investors, and I believe many will be crazy about it"

Johnson glanced at A Chuan, who looked back at him with a sense of helplessness. He could only sigh, turn around, and pat Kerr on the shoulder, saying, "I will find a way to bring you all back safely"

After they had walked a certain distance, the last one, A Chuan, said: "It has disappeared"

After several repetitions, he finally stopped, his sinister and terrifying vertical pupils coldly gazing at the crowd, awaiting their response

Shh! Johnson said dryly, "Don't speak. Although it can't hear what we are saying clearly, we must control ourselves now and avoid causing any misunderstandings."

Could this guy be sent by aliens

A sigh of disappointment was heard

Kerr covered his mouth with one hand, lowered his head, and timidly followed Johnson, slowly shuffling his feet

"This is not difficult; perhaps it wants to eat..." Jack suddenly thought of something, and his expression froze. He stopped in his tracks, looked at the others, and said in a low voice: "I think I know the real reason why this snake is so different from the others."

Most people displayed despair, their nerves were tense to the point of collapse, they kept swallowing saliva in their throats, and their legs felt weak, rendering them unable to move their feet

Shan was right, it is really writing! At that moment, Gail gasped with her hand over her mouth, her eyes wide open, and said in disbelief: "Oh, my God! This is just incredible!"

What is this supposed to be? Is it dancing?

"Let's fight it out with it." Ah Chuan also comes from a special forces background and does not lack courage in critical moments

Kerr's legs trembled, his heart raced, and he felt an overwhelming urge to urinate due to his anxiety

Others closely followed, sweating profusely as they trailed behind the group, their hearts nearly in their throats

Soon, they arrived at the edge of the jungle, getting closer to Xu Jing.

It is utterly absurd; even if a snake has grown this large, it is astonishing that it can also use our language and writing.

He spoke as he strode forward, calling out: "Take your things and keep close to me"

The black giant python did not charge at them; instead, it coiled at the edge of the jungle, its tail raised like a long pen, continuously sketching in the air

The large tree snapped in two with a resounding crack

Johnson held the machete in a reverse grip, with the blade pointing backward, while raising his other hand high, and began to walk past Xu Jing little by little.

Jack appeared somewhat excited and meaningfully said: "Isn't this better? Now, even if you are unwilling to go on an adventure, you have no choice."

"What?" Keer said with a crying face, "This joke is not funny at all"

It is warning us. Johnson's expression was extremely grave, realizing that he had still underestimated the opponent's strength, he said to everyone: We should set off quickly

As soon as Johnson's voice fell, a patch of grass, taller than a person, suddenly collapsed to the sides at the edge of the jungle, revealing a massive black python, its body glistening as it flicked its tongue into view of the crowd

He slowly wrote out one large letter after another in mid-air, at a very slow pace, ensuring that the expedition team could distinguish them

I believe I have found the next research target for Weihe Venture Capital," Jack said softly to Jordan beside him

"Are you saying that it has consumed the Blood Orchid and surpassed the Heffelick limit?" replied Shan

Wait! Johnson suddenly reached out and stopped A-Chuan, saying, "Look."
