Chapter 8, The Devouring Python
If he had not already evolved to Level 2 power, he would certainly be no match for the opponent
The water in the swamp is relatively murky, obscuring the view of what lies beneath the surface, and the water level has risen to the waist of the crowd
In the depths of the jungle on the other side of the swamp, the members of the expedition team sat together, their limbs weak and gasping for breath.
Simultaneously swaying the body, drawing close and entwining upward
It is here! It is chasing us!
He paused for a moment and then said: "Therefore, the one that wins will take several weeks to digest and will not come after us"
Xu Jing did not pay attention to Johnson and the others; he felt somewhat fortunate that the size of this green python was hardly any smaller than his own at present
His glossy black scales quivered in pieces, unreservedly plunging into the swamp
What is this!
Everyone formed a line, carefully moving forward in unison with Johnson's steps
Almost simultaneously, a green giant python, no less than Xu Jing in size, leaped out from the depths of the water behind the expedition team, opening its mouth wide and lunging towards Ban first.
Seeing that no one opposed, Johnson immediately took the lead with a knife and waded into the swamp, and after exchanging glances, the others followed one by one
Help!
The class let out a cry for help, but there was simply no time to evade.
We cannot outrun it
Kerr was completely unable to calm down, pacing back and forth, venting: "Calm? How can I be calm! No matter which snake it is, they all want to eat us, and we simply cannot win."
Just when he thought he was undoubtedly doomed, Xu Jing, who had also lunged at him, suddenly turned his head like a snake and bit fiercely onto the opponent's spine from behind the green python
"Stop joking around." Keer completely did not believe it and shouted, "Do you not see the current situation? In this jungle, there is not just one super giant python; we might encounter a third, a fourth, or even more!"
Gradually, the resistance of the green python weakened, and finally it lost all its strength, its head tilting to one side, with all signs of life completely vanished
But now it is different; in addition to the secondary power, he also possesses primary armor, and he has the advantage of a surprise attack, firmly gripping the opponent's spine without letting go. As a result, the opponent is unable to turn its head, and the constriction and strangulation cannot be executed with full force
Kerr was so overwhelmed with emotion that he was on the verge of tears, murmuring to himself: "We are doomed! We are doomed! ... ... "
On the contrary, Xu Jing not only can exert all his strength, but also possesses an incredibly solid scale armor that defends his inner flesh and blood; the constriction of the green python only causes him slight discomfort.
Oh---oh---oh---oh ... ...
Johnson lowered his head, deep in thought, and said: "It may not be coming for us. As you all saw, that black python ambushed the green python. Do you remember the first time we encountered the black python? It was in great pain then, perhaps it had been secretly plotted against by the green python. Snakes hold grudges, so it might be here to seek revenge"
Not only Johnson, but others also sensed something amiss. One by one, they turned to look back and saw that the originally still and silent water surface suddenly erupted with a long white line, rapidly rushing towards them
Everyone in the expedition team recognized Xu Jing, primarily because he was now covered in a glossy, deep black and had a remarkably thick scale armor, which was unlike that of any snake.
At that moment, Johnson's pet monkey, Xiao Gang, suddenly climbed up a tree growing in the swamp and began to scream in terror
"Did you not say it would not chase us? But what about now?" Kerr completely lost control of himself and shouted at Johnson, "Not only has it caught up, but there is more than one!"
Run fast
Stop messing around!" Johnson looked up and glared at Xiaogang, reprimanding him.
Although Johnson could not understand why the two giant pythons would kill each other upon meeting, he saw an opportunity and, with a command, led the still-screaming crowd to flee for their lives.
However, the green python's body was simply too large; it had only swallowed a little over half, causing its body to swell to the thickness of a large water tank, while the remaining half of the snake's tail could not be swallowed at all
I tell you, we have no chance at all. To that giant python, we are like little white mice, do you understand? If it wants to eat us, we are doomed
Ahーー ! ''
Use 15 points of source to quickly digest and obtain 30 points of source
Looking at the log records, Xu Jing felt somewhat helpless. The cost of rapid digestion was indeed high. A secondary-level power giant python could yield 50 points of origin if not for the rapid digestion, but at this moment, the system had taken half of it.
Damn it, I knew it wouldn't let us off the hook
Xu Jing did not relax; he continued to exert all his strength to constrict for a while, until he was certain that the opponent was truly dead, before releasing the opponent's spine, opening his gaping maw, and gradually swallowing the opponent starting from the head.
Finally arrived Meanwhile, after catching up with the expedition team, Xu Jing, who had been waiting at the edge of the swamp without entering, also sensed something
As soon as Ke Er finished speaking, the surface of the water made a "gurgling" sound, and Xu Jing suddenly emerged from the depths, raising a terrifyingly large snake head, roaring towards the medical team at the back of the line.
Use 10 source points to quickly digest and obtain 20 source points
Two giant pythons entwined with each other, their upper halves rising above the water's surface before crashing down together, creating a massive wave that rolled and surged.
Boom
The vast marsh obstructed the path of the expedition team, and everyone came to a halt, some feeling at a loss.
Johnson said helplessly: "Alright, but that would mean wasting an additional day."
The entire expedition team screamed in fear
"Let us go," Jack seemed to suggest
Fortunately, he still has 15 points of essence available for use. With a thought, the green python that had been swallowed began to digest rapidly.
The green python finally reacted, its body swaying as it coiled around Xu Jing.
Xu Jingcai completely digested the entire green python in two separate instances
"Kerr! Calm down!" Jack said in a low voice
Seeing that no one was speaking, Kerr felt even more anxious. He ran up to Jordan and said, "Hey, buddy, you know I often watch the Discovery Channel"
However, Xiaogang not only did not stop, but instead emitted an even sharper long hiss. At its height, it could just see a thick shadow over ten meters long in the swamp, beginning to circle around the crowd
Since the expedition team was already aware of his existence, he did not waste any time. After devouring the green python, he directly pursued them.
Oh! God! The appearance of the second giant python caused everyone's hearts to sink to the bottom.
There is a situation
"Listen up! Guys!" Johnson's unusually calm tone captured everyone's attention as he said in a deep voice, "We must move forward immediately, leave this place, and hurry to the boat. We are not far from Naga Rock. The two large pythons just had a fight, and the one that lost is likely to become the food of the victor..."
"Can we go around it?" Shan asked.
