Chapter 5, Secondary Forces
Johnson took a sip of his drink, glanced into the depths of the darkness, and slowly said: "This is the jungle, where everything can be preyed upon"
At that moment, a sudden change occurred
Keep it up !
Gail Steed, representing the company, was walking around the ship, loudly shouting into the satellite phone: "Can you hear me speaking? How about now? Can you hear me now?"
Achieving all of this consumed merely 50 points of the original source, yet it brought about a tremendous transformation in his strength
The taste is indeed quite good
This is his only thought at present; although the blood orchid is important, it is sufficient to consume it before returning, as it will not run away from where it is growing anyway
And now that there is still enough time, it would be better to take the opportunity to hunt more and obtain greater resources
Xu Jing shook his snake head, no longer thinking too much. Regardless of the circumstances, without the system, he could only live an ordinary life in a wheelchair. However, now, his entire life has changed, and the future holds infinite possibilities.
But the closed ship's door suddenly opened, and Gail screamed in terror as she fell into the river.
She felt somewhat frustrated. The signal here was already weak, and with the weather conditions, it became even worse. However, communicating with the company was part of her job, so she had no choice but to keep trying diligently.
The short-statured member, Kerr, expressed his impatience and said with a displeased pout: "We all heard it!"
The expedition team, gathered on the ship for dinner, was all taken aback, gazing into the unknown darkness
"It is 20 points less." He pondered, recalling that he had scored 83 points the last time, and now, having surpassed the first level of strength, it had changed to 113.
Although it is possible to utilize the source point for rapid digestion, it is not yet time to indulge in such luxury, and he naturally will not waste it. Moreover, five days is sufficient for him to return to the mating ground in advance.
Captain Johnson calmly said: "Something happened. I was eaten."
In the darkness, after Xu Jing swallowed the black panther, he turned to the top of a nearby tree, where a monkey was watching him in terror.
The others were originally sitting together chatting, but under Gale's influence, they all stopped talking with a look of helplessness and turned to look at her
"Quickly throw away the phone, it will hinder your swimming," Kerr said seriously after laughing.
What has been eaten
... ...
Xu Jing seemed to have discovered a new continent, with one idea after another emerging in succession
Among the people on the ship, some are concerned, while others continue to joke around
Prey on the black panther to gain 10 points of essence
Xu Jing slowly swam out of the crevice. Although there was some mental resistance, at this moment, the black panther indeed felt like a delicious meal to the giant python.
Gail felt a sense of frustration, with one hand paddling the water while tightly gripping the phone with the other hand.
With a thought, Xu Jing pointed to the '+' sign, and immediately a strong current of air appeared out of nowhere from within him, flowing throughout his entire body.
It is truly incredible! Xu Jing feels the power of his current strong body, which has increased by one third compared to before, reaching 20.8 meters, and his strength has successfully reached level two
A fierce crocodile suddenly leaped out of the water, lunging at Gail
Xu Jing's heart stirred, and she tried clicking on the return option. Immediately, a prompt appeared: "The body can convert 113 points of origin. Do you confirm the return?"
In the case of a common python, it would take several days or even a week to digest a black panther. However, for the mutated python that has consumed blood orchids, possessing such a massive body signifies a stronger digestive capability and a greater need for food
Moreover, due to the panic, her wrist was cut by the sharp edge of a plastic basket, creating a gash the length of a finger, with blood gushing out and mingling with the river water, yet she herself remained unaware of it
The forty percent that has disappeared, it is unclear whether it has been deducted by the system or if it is normal loss
Gail
"Swim over here, quickly, hurry up and swim over here." The accompanying team doctor smiled and then responsibly called out.
Once they saw that Gael was unharmed and that there was no serious issue, they immediately relaxed and smiled.
Moreover, during this meal, he made an unexpected discovery
Additionally, after exceeding 50 points in the original source, a '+' sign has appeared after the original 'Level 1 Strength' in the current physical status bar located at the bottom right corner of the system interface
In the riverbed, Xu Jing found a wide crack. After confirming that it was safe, he crawled inside and remained motionless to digest the experience
Jordan playfully asked, "Gail, is the water temperature alright?"
Stop the ship!
It can actually be done this way
He seemed to hear a crisp sound in his mind, and then felt a tingling sensation throughout his body, which unexpectedly began to swell and elongate.
In the early morning, the jungle, which had just cleared after a night of rain, is now enveloped in tranquility. The river surface is shrouded in mist, resembling a beautiful paradise on earth
What on earth is that
As the night quietly passed and just before dawn, Xu Jing finally managed to digest more than half of the black panther.
Hiss...
He had little interest in the monkey that had barely a few taels of meat, glanced at it briefly, then turned around and, dragging his swollen serpent body, returned to the riverbed
Another Black man, Jordan, shouted gleefully, "Hey! Gail! Can you hear me?"
He exerted his strength, accelerated his speed, and pursued the direction of the expedition team's vessel.
It is unclear how much time has passed, but a long snake skin has shed from his body, and the internal airflow gradually dissipated without a trace
I want to kill you! Gail, holding the plastic basket that had just fallen into the river, clutched the phone, filled with rage
These 10 source points were directly added to the remaining source points, resulting in the source bar value now being 56
The top position of the system's virtual interface recorded his hunt like a game log
My goodness
The final roar of the black panther when hunted is particularly clear and resounding in the night rainforest, echoing far and wide, accompanied by a sharp, long hiss of fear from a nearby location, both sounds spreading out together
Captain Johnson rushed down from the upper deck. Noticing that Gale was not a strong swimmer, he took down the long pole hanging at the stern of the ship and extended it towards her, saying, "Here, grab it."
The massive serpent's body could not help but roll along the riverbed, as if an invisible flame were burning upon it, in such agony that it needed to be extinguished by rubbing against the ground
A black panther can only be satisfied to a half-full extent
Gail rolled her eyes, ignored him, and turned around, leaning against the ship's door
Bang
A commotion erupted among the crowd, and everyone stood up from their seats and rushed towards the stern of the ship
Xu Jing even included other pythons that had consumed blood orchids within the scope of his hunting. He is not a true python; in essence, he is a human soul controlling a serpent's body, and he feels no psychological burden when devouring other pythons that lack intelligence and rely solely on instinct
I need to hunt more prey
