Upon seeing this, Jiang An's heart sank, and he instantly understood the python's intention.
It turns out that it didn't want a direct conflict with them; it simply hoped that they would back down.
As for why it had remained inactive, Jiang An's gaze shifted downwards, presumably because something was hidden in its tail.
Thinking of this, Jiang An dared not delay and quickly shot out two more arrows.
With two whooshing sounds, two arrows shot towards the giant python in different directions.
In the blink of an eye, just as the arrow was about to strike the giant python, Jiang An suddenly shouted, "Attack!"
Before she finished speaking, she had already taken up the Dragon-Subduing Sword and charged towards the other side.
The little turtle beside it was not to be outdone, and followed closely behind with its short limbs.
And just like that, the two sides started fighting.
Despite the vast disparity in strength between the two sides, Jiang An and Little Turtle managed to fight the ferocious giant python to a standstill, thanks to their excellent teamwork and tenacious fighting spirit.
At this moment, Jiang An couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate: luckily, this python was not at its peak condition, otherwise the two of them alone would probably not have been able to contend with it.
They'll probably have to slink away like they did yesterday.
Amidst the fierce battle, Jiang An's sharp eyes scanned the enormous python before him.
She keenly noticed that although the python launched fierce attacks, its tail never participated in the attack.
This unusual phenomenon alerted Jiang Anxin, and she immediately realized that something important must be hidden at the snake's tail.
Upon realizing this, Jiang An immediately changed tactics and quickly began communicating in his mind with the little turtle beside him.
After a brief conversation, the man and the turtle began to work together in perfect harmony, as if they were telepathically in sync.
They split into two groups, each launching a fierce attack on the giant python's vital parts—its seven inches and its mysterious tail.
Jiang An brandished the Dragon-Subduing Blade, while ice arrows shot continuously from the little turtle's mouth, its sharp teeth and limbs attacking the giant python relentlessly.
After a long and arduous battle, the python gradually showed signs of fatigue and began to lose ground.
Just then, Jiang An, with his sharp eyes, successfully spotted the item hidden in the python's tail.
Surprisingly, an enormous snake egg was hidden there!
In an instant, everything became clear.
It turned out that this was not an ordinary python, but a female python that was pregnant.
I don't know how much time passed.
... ...
With a deafening "bang," the mother python's massive body crashed to the ground.
However, what is truly astonishing is that, in the instant it fell, it seemed to have some kind of instinctive reaction, precisely avoiding the snake eggs it was guarding, demonstrating the great power of maternal love.
At the same time, a crisp and pleasant game notification sound suddenly rang out:
[Ding! A golden-ringed python has been spotted. Disassemble it?]
The sound was like a victory horn, marking the perfect end to this thrilling battle and also announcing the end of the giant python's life.
Jiang An responded decisively: "Decompose!"
Before she finished speaking, she deftly took out an exquisite medicine bottle from her backpack and pulled out a pill that shone with a purple-gold light.
Without hesitation, he swallowed it, feeling the medicinal effects rapidly spreading throughout his body...
The python that was incubating its eggs seemed to have entered a berserk state, especially towards the end of the battle, when its ferocity was beyond imagination.
Just then, a fierce attack came hurtling toward her upper body.
Jiang An noticed her keenly and she had no choice but to hurriedly open her safety vest and dodge to the side, but the safety vest's defensive capabilities were limited, and her movements were slow.
In an instant, a sharp pain struck, and she could even clearly hear a "crack" sound from her arm bone—the sound of bone breaking.
Her left arm had completely lost its mobility, but in the midst of such a fierce battle, she had no time to care for her wounds, let alone take time to take healing pills.
Left with no other choice, she could only grit her teeth and persevere. Fortunately, it wasn't her right arm that was injured; otherwise, she probably wouldn't have been able to even grip the long knife.
When she felt a tingling sensation in her left arm, she knew that the Purple Gold Pill was starting to take effect.
At this moment, she felt extremely fortunate to have the Purple Gold Pill. Without it, she probably wouldn't have been able to heal her fracture for a long time.
[Ding! Decomposition successful! Total harvest: 50 kg snake meat (excellent grade), 30 snake skins (excellent grade)]
However, to her slight disappointment, the decomposition did not yield any snake venom.
After putting these items into his backpack and storage ring, Jiang An's gaze fell on the enormous snake egg in front of him.
Faced with this enormous creature, she was momentarily at a loss.
The little turtle beside it was clearly also itching to try, but based on its previous experience, it did not rush forward rashly, but quietly waited for its owner to give the order.
Jiang An stared at the little turtle's yearning eyes, her heart struggling slightly, but after only three seconds, she resolutely put the enormous snake egg into her storage ring.
Then, with a smile, she whispered to the little turtle, "Little turtle, look how big this snake egg is! When we get back to the boat, Mommy will cook you a delicious stir-fried snake egg with chili peppers~ I guarantee you'll eat your fill!"
However, in reality, Jiang An did this not only out of love for the little turtle.
More importantly, she knew very well that this was not the time to easily show compassion or mercy.
After all, she herself was in a precarious situation, her life hanging in the balance, and who knows when she might silently disappear into this vast and boundless ocean.
In this situation, how can she possibly have the right to pity others?
For her right now, the most urgent task is to do everything she can to improve her own abilities.
It should be noted that the parents of this snake egg are both exceptionally powerful and ferocious giant pythons, and the snake meat extracted from their bodies is of superior quality.
If that's the case, then what kind of magical effects would the snake eggs laid by such a powerful python have?
Although she hadn't tasted it, Jiang An firmly believed that this snake egg would definitely help her and the little turtle make rapid progress in their strength.
The little turtle nodded understandingly.
