Anomaly: I Seek Survival in the Apocalypse

In the year 2048, following the fall of a meteorite to Earth, an unknown gas was emitted. Subsequently, species globally began to mutate, and humanity was no longer at the apex of the food chain. C...

Chapter 118 Vines

The brother and sister were overjoyed to see this.

The power of the earth waves is evident to all; their terrifying destructive force is like a meat grinder, crushing everything in their path.

The giant python dared to risk its life, and its fate was self-evident.

The brother and sister could finally breathe a sigh of relief, because compared to the earth waves, the giant python posed a much greater and more difficult threat. While the earth waves were even more formidable, they moved much slower, giving the brother and sister more time to escape.

However, when the python's tail fell down...

That terrifying power actually shattered the earthen waves.

A tremendous bombardment resounded in their ears, like a highly destructive grenade exploding, and an unstoppable wave of earth was blasted by the giant python's tail, sending dirt flying everywhere.

This power was so immense that it was unimaginable. Even the blue light emitted by Sun Muchen's lighting skill was blasted away and disappeared without a trace.

The brother and sister were stunned and stood there for a moment.

The collapsed soil poured down like a heavy rain, landing on the brother and sister.

Sun Muchen was startled awake at this moment and quickly released his skill, Blue Light, to block the mud.

Looking at the soil, which was blocked by the blue light and was still piling up thicker and thicker, Wang Lan swallowed hard and said with lingering fear, "What, what is the origin of this giant python? It even shattered the earth waves so easily!"

While blocking the falling soil, Sun Muchen's other hand glowed with blue light and extended backward, forming a blue protective shield as his hand moved.

"Brother!" she said to Wang Lan, "Strike the snake at its vital spot! As long as we find its weakness and pinpoint its fatal flaw, I don't believe we can't take it down!"

Wang Lan: "???"

He never expected that his younger sister would still think of fighting the giant python at a time like this.

This is a challenge that has no chance of being won!

"What are you doing!" Wang Lan immediately retorted, "This python is far more powerful than we imagined. It's impossible for us to defeat it. The best course of action is to flee!"

As he spoke, Wang Lan put away the Vajra Umbrella, took out a few arrows, nocked them on the bowstring, and shot them.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Several whooshing sounds rang out.

One after another, arrows shot into the darkness ahead. The next moment, a series of booming explosions rang out amidst the rain of mud, and flames spread, igniting distant trees. The raging flames grew stronger and stronger, instantly illuminating the area.

"roar--"

The python's roar rang out once again.

It noticed the continuous flames burning, turned its head, and rushed into the sea of ​​fire.

“I understand!” Sun Muchen said, “Snakes are cold-blooded animals, so, brother, you’re planning to burn the giant python to death with a huge fire, right?”

"It's a poop!"

Wang Lan spat and said, "I already said, this python is not something we can challenge. A wise man does not stay under a dangerous wall. Our priority is to escape."

"A wise man does not stand under a crumbling wall?" Sun Muchen muttered to himself, then exclaimed, "Brother, how come you suddenly said something so philosophical? Wow, that's amazing!"

"Really?" Wang Lan blushed slightly at Sun Muchen's praise and said, "It's nothing special, it's just something I saw in the book you were reading before... Ugh! You're getting off-topic!"

Seeing that the muddy rain had lessened, Wang Lan grabbed Sun Muchen's hand and ran backward.

Just then, a wave of heat suddenly swept up behind them. The brother and sister turned around and saw that in the increasingly fierce sea of ​​fire, the huge snake head had been ignited, turning into a fire serpent that was rushing towards them.

"Damn it! This isn't over yet!"

Wang Lan was so angry that she started cursing.

The fire serpent was incredibly fierce and aggressive, smashing down trees on both sides and setting them ablaze. The sea of ​​fire continued to expand outwards, and the gale-force winds it generated further stirred the flames, igniting an ever-widening area on both sides.

"Mu Chen, is it still possible to locate the mark you left behind?"

"Over here!"

Sun Muchen waved his hand, and a blue light shot out, much faster than the two of them, flowing forward through the forest. "Follow the light!"

"roar--"

The python was hot on their heels!

The roar was so close that it sent chills down the spines of the brother and sister.

A sense of despair caught up with the two of them; they could even feel the cold and heat emanating from behind them.

That was the coldness of python blood and the intense heat of flames.

It was also mixed with a nauseating stench of blood!

The brother and sister dared not turn their heads, fearing that if they did, their speed would slow down and the giant python would bite them and devour them completely, leaving not even a bone fragment!

But it just so happened at this very moment.

The ground trembled violently once again.

"Oh shit--"

The brother and sister lost their footing, and Wang Lan immediately swore.

Then they rolled forward.

It kept crashing into a tree in front of it.

Wang Lan braced himself with one hand on the ground. Despite feeling dizzy, he instinctively pulled out the Vajra Umbrella and turned around.

Sun Muchen also snatched the longbow from Wang Lan's hand, drew out an arrow, and nocked it on the string.

They were prepared for one last gamble, even if it would be futile.

But what I saw before me...

The ground continued to tremble, and from within it, countless vine-like tentacles, incredibly hard, stretched out, piercing through the python's body one by one, lifting it into the air. One even pierced through the python's mouth, connecting its tongue to its mouth.

Even so, the giant python continued to struggle, its body visibly trembling.

The more it struggled, the more the vine twisted and turned.

It was as if they wanted to torture the giant python to death.

Wang Lan looked horrified.

Sun Muchen asked suspiciously, "Where...where did these vines come from?"

Wang Lan took a deep breath, put away the Vajra Umbrella, and said, "No, don't worry about it. No matter where these vines came from, they've at least helped us. Let's go, let's go!"

Sun Muchen nodded repeatedly.

With a wave of his hand, he released another burst of blue light from his skill, which flowed and connected to the various marked points.

"Let's go!"

As Sun Muchen spoke, he and Wang Lan sped up and ran away.

They quickly ran to the place where the bear meat had originally been.

At that moment, the giant python's roar suddenly rang out.

The two turned around in shock. They had clearly created a great distance between them, but they hadn't expected the giant python's roar to be so loud.

They picked up the bear meat and headed toward the entrance to the basement.

As night deepened, the two gradually calmed down.

After all, despite the many difficulties along the way, they managed to survive and even obtain food.

"call--"

Wang Lan breathed a sigh of relief and jumped down into the cave with Sun Muchen.

Then, with a "bang!"

They both instinctively looked up.

Guided by the blue light, the giant python's head smashed into the cave entrance, its huge, bloodshot eyes pressed tightly against the opening.

His killing intent was palpable!
