The swishing sound grew closer, and everyone gripped their weapons tightly in tension.
A few minutes later, the group finally saw the giant they had been thinking about countless times.
At that moment, everyone stared blankly up at the giant python in mid-air.
It was opening its blood-red maw, its tongue flicking out, its two huge fangs gleaming eerily, and its two vertical eyes, the size of copper bells, were now shining brightly with a green light.
The giant python's scales were deep red with black veins, and the sunlight shining through the treetops made them shimmer. Its enormous body was coiled into a disc, completely blocking the road in front of it.
It's like a mountain blocking everyone's way.
Lu Zehua looked down at the gun in his hand. Was this really something they could handle?
Even Gu Yanci, who had been mentally prepared, felt a chill run down his spine upon seeing such a colossal object.
That's it?
All of them combined probably wouldn't even be enough to fill its teeth.
Chu Xingyue's heart tightened at this moment, not expecting that the giant python was the same in different worlds.
The python flicked its tongue back and forth, sensing the unfamiliar scent in the air that didn't belong to this land. It paid no attention to these humans who radiated heat.
However, Chu Xingyue's aura was somewhat inexplicable to it, as if it had sensed it somewhere before.
Although the python was a bit strange, it didn't stop it from launching an attack.
Its massive body stood upright and charged straight at Chu Xingyue, whom it felt was the greatest threat.
Chu Xingyue's eyes turned cold, and she dodged the giant python's attack with a quick movement. She then thrust the dagger she had prepared into the body that was still in the way.
This dagger was prepared by Chu Xingyue before she arrived. She used all her strength to slice across the giant python's scales.
They had only managed to pry open the python's scales a little.
But even this small detail was enough to drive the already aggressive python into a frenzy.
The attack missed, and the human even scratched the python, which enraged it.
The enraged python lashed out with its tail at Chu Jiaojiao and Gu Yanci, who were hiding to the side.
Upon seeing the sweeping snake tail, the two ducked to dodge, and attacked simultaneously the instant they dodged.
After landing a successful attack, he immediately ran in the opposite direction.
The group of people hiding nearby knew they were no match for the giant python, so they raised their guns and aimed them at the snake's constantly writhing head.
Gu Yanci knew that he was not as strong as Chu Xingyue and Chu Jiaojiao, but fortunately he was agile.
Gu Yanci's stab was also cunning; the genital area in the abdomen was his best spot at the time, and with just that one strike, the giant python broke several large trees.
Chu Jiaojiao was already quite strong, but like Chu Xingyue, she could only make a small cut.
Watching the giant python writhing on the ground, Chu Xingyue knew that if they didn't come up with a solution soon, everyone's strength would be exhausted.
"Bang bang bang!" The muffled gunshots, amplified by silencers, rang out, and Chu Xingyue and the other two looked in the direction from which the sound came.
Yang Run lay in ambush nearby, silently striking the giant python and tearing its skin and flesh.
Seeing that this method was effective, the men hiding behind raised their pistols and looked for the best spots to shoot.
Yang Run fired three shots in total, only one of which hit the giant python. But even that one shot caused the python to feel pain and become even more agitated.
While a single shot wouldn't be fatal to a python, it was enough to make the giant snake even more agitated.
The people hiding at the back were unable to advance due to the attacks from the ferocious giant python.
Before the giant python could even attack him, Lu Zehua tripped and fell, and to make matters worse, he crashed into a tree, knocking himself unconscious.
Those who noticed him were speechless.
Such a huge python, having grown to this size, must have some intelligence. It knows how to pick on the weak. Chu Xingyue and Chu Jiaojiao exchanged a few glances, and both understood what the other meant.
Chu Xingyue made several hand gestures to Gu Yanci, and Zhou Yu, Jiang Yu, and the others who were dodging the giant python's attacks received Chu Xingyue's orders.
Du Kangli and Zhang Cheng quickly ran over, dragged Lu Zehua, who was lying on the ground, to their feet, and ran away. The giant python saw its food, which was almost in its mouth, being taken away, and charged straight at the three of them without any hesitation.
The two of them, carrying Lu Zehua, felt their strength rapidly draining away as they ran, but the giant python seemed oblivious to their bleeding wounds, relentlessly pursuing them.
Unfortunately, Zhang Cheng tripped, causing all three of them to fall to the ground.
The force of the impact woke Lu Zehua, who had fainted, and he opened his eyes groggily.
That one glance was worse than if he hadn't woken up at all. Lu Zehua's eyes were wide open, his mouth slightly agape in terror, and he looked as if he wanted to collapse again.
"What are you standing there for? Stand up and run!"
Du Kangli and Zhang Cheng, who had already gotten up from the ground, saw Lu Zehua standing there in a daze and angrily grabbed him and ran away.
The three of them swerved to the side, preventing the massive python from biting them immediately.
Chu Jiaojiao had already quickly climbed up a huge tree branch and set up her sniper rifle.
Gu Yanci, perched on a tree on the other side, also gripped his gun, squinting at the giant python.
The giant python, having regained its senses, began to retreat.
Chu Xingyue glanced at the crowd hiding among themselves, made a gesture, her cold eyes narrowed, and she flew towards the giant python, leaping directly towards its vital spot.
The seven-inch mark is the weakest point on its body. When danger approaches, animals have a natural sense of danger. It tried to curl up and hide its seven-inch mark immediately, but its body was too big. Before it could do so, Chu Xingyue, who had jumped on it, used a dagger made of special material to stab the seven-inch mark with all her might.
The python paused for a fleeting moment, and in that instant, the guns already aimed at it fired.
The scales that were initially only slightly scratched were now pierced by Chu Xingyue's dagger. Chu Xingyue's dagger had a groove specifically for bleeding, and Chu Xingyue gripped the dagger tightly with both hands and twisted it violently, causing the blood to flow directly down the groove of the dagger like a small waterfall.
As the dagger pierced her, the giant python stretched out its massive head, attempting to swallow Chu Xingyue whole, but in that instant, it was struck by several specially made bullets.
The continuous firing left the giant python, writhing in excruciating pain, with no strength left to attack Chu Xingyue.
This gave Chu Xingyue time to escape. She pulled out the dagger and used the giant python's body to leap onto a nearby tree.
The bullets exploded upon contact with the giant python's body. No matter how thick its skin or how well its scales protected it, it couldn't evade Chu Xingyue's specially made bullets.
The snake's two eyes were blown into two bloody holes; the bullets had entered the eye sockets, and the snake's brain had exploded.
With a loud thud, the entire snake body collapsed to the ground, and blood covered the entire surface.
The team members were panting heavily. Were they dead?
Nonsense, if your head gets blown open, how could you possibly survive?
The group climbed down from the tree and looked at Chu Xingyue standing on the treetop. Sunlight shone through the leaves and fell on Chu Xingyue's head, creating a halo that made them feel as if Chu Xingyue was a god sent down from heaven.
Chu Xingyue frowned when she saw the group staring blankly at her.
"Leave here quickly, the smell of blood is too strong, and large carnivores will appear soon."
Everyone tidied themselves up as they walked.
"Are you alright? Are you hurt?" Gu Yanci asked Chu Xingyue, who was walking beside him, with concern.
His wife was truly amazing. He was already a formidable figure, but his wife was practically a god. This experience was even more shocking to Gu Yanci than the big guy he encountered at the research institute last time.
There is absolutely no basis for comparison between these two.
Gu Yanci looked at his wife with eyes full of adoration.
Chu Xingyue smiled helplessly. Could this man please stop looking at her so brazenly? Doesn't he know what kind of environment they are in?
Chu Xingyue secretly rolled her eyes.
"This is a true master. If this could be recorded, wouldn't it shock the world?"
The group behind them walked carefully, chatting quietly, as Chu Xingyue had given them a truly shocking experience.
This enormous creature, which had lived in this rainforest for who knows how many years, was thus dealt with.
For a moment, it felt a little unreal.
Chu Xingyue led her team along the path, avoiding any large animals that might be out in the wild. They had just come from a major battle and needed to rest; otherwise, if they encountered another one, there would definitely be casualties.
It's getting dark; night is fast approaching in the rainforest. We need to find a place to rest quickly, as the rainforest at night is several times more dangerous than during the day.
