749 The Yellow River Snake Girl (Part 2)
The snake woman's tail, like a thick black steel whip, swept towards the crowd with overwhelming force and a sharp gust of wind. Lin Yu felt a suffocating force bearing down on him, like an invisible wall pressing down on him. He thought to himself, "Oh no!" and without hesitation, he shouted, "Scatter and hide!" His voice was so weak amid the whistling wind and the roar of the Yellow River, yet it was filled with unquestionable determination.
Like startled birds, everyone quickly leaped away in different directions. Ouyang Zhenghao leaped to the left, his entire body arcing in mid-air before landing heavily on the ground. He rolled several times before barely stabilizing himself. He looked up and watched the snake's tail sweep past him. In that instant, he could even clearly see the scales on the snake's tail shimmering with an eerie luster, and wisps of black mist flowing from the gaps between the scales, like the evil aura emanating from the depths of hell.
The snake's tail slammed into the ground with a resounding, muffled boom, like a cannonball. A deep crater was instantly blasted into the ground, and the surrounding earth cracked like a spiderweb. Dust and grass scraps rose into the air, forming a thick cloud of dust. Lin Yu quickly turned and peered through the dense dust, staring intently at the snake woman's silhouette, his heart filled with confusion and alarm. He thought to himself, "This snake woman is so powerful and agile. The confined space is extremely disadvantageous to us. If we want to defeat her, we must quickly identify her weakness. But where exactly is that weakness? This monster is like an impenetrable wall, and our previous attacks seem to have had little effect on her." As he pondered, he tightened his grip on his weapon. The weapon gleamed with a cold metallic sheen in his trembling hand, reflecting the serious, tense expression on his face.
Ouyang Zhenghao shouted from the side, "Lin Yu, this thing is too terrifying! What should we do? At this rate, we're no match for it!" His face was filled with nervousness, his eyes widening, beads of sweat dripping down his forehead, and his breathing became rapid and heavy. The weapon in his hand trembled slightly, a sign of fear and tension, but his eyes still revealed a hint of determination. Even facing such a terrifying opponent, he had no intention of retreating.
Lin Yu shouted back, "Don't panic yet. Observe its movements and look for opportunities! Times like these require us to remain calm. Panic will only put us in greater danger!" At this point, the other team members gathered around, confronting the snake woman's shadow. Their eyes held a mixture of fear and unwillingness, each one gripping their weapon tightly, ready for the next attack.
The snake woman's shadow didn't seem to intend to let them go, and she let out another sharp hiss. This hiss was even more shrill than before, as piercing as nails scraping against glass, causing pain in everyone's eardrums and a buzzing in their heads. The snake's tail rose high and paused in the air for a moment, like a scythe of death ready to launch a new round of attacks. At this moment, Lin Yu keenly noticed that before each attack, the snake woman's shadow would pause briefly at the base of its tail, as if that was the starting point of its power, perhaps a weak point. This discovery ignited a glimmer of hope in Lin Yu's heart, like seeing a ray of light in the darkness.
Lin Yu saw the right moment and shouted to the team members: "Listen to my command. When it attacks again, attack the base of its tail together! That may be its weakness! Everyone must seize the opportunity, this may be our only chance!" The team members nodded one after another, their eyes revealing firm determination. At this moment, fear was suppressed by the desire to survive and the belief in defeating the monster.
The snake woman's shadow swung her tail again, sweeping it towards the crowd. Like a bolt of black lightning, it pierced the night sky, stirring up a gust of wind. Lin Yu shouted, "Attack!" Everyone quickly rushed toward the snake woman's shadow, their footsteps kicking up a cloud of dust. They concentrated their firepower on the base of the snake's tail. Their weapons struck the tail with a dull thud, sending up a shower of sparks. The snake woman's shadow seemed to feel the pain, and she roared angrily, shaking the air around her. The snake's tail suddenly retracted, like a wounded beast instinctively trying to protect itself.
However, the snake woman's shadow didn't retreat. Instead, her body began to glow with a strange light. The light took on an eerie, dark blue hue, like a netherworld fire, emitting a cold and sinister aura. The light grew stronger and stronger, blinding everyone so much that they could barely open their eyes and could only shield their eyes with their hands. Lin Yu thought to himself, "What's this doing? Could it be that it has even more powerful methods? This light seems to contain enormous energy. We must be careful."
After the light faded, the snake woman's body became even more ethereal, as if it would dissipate into thin air at any moment. But then, several smaller figures appeared around it, also resembling the snake woman, though smaller in size. These smaller figures quickly pounced on the crowd, even faster than the snake woman's previous figure, like black ghosts darting through the night sky. Their eyes flashed a faint green light, and sharp hisses emanated from their mouths, like a pack of hungry wolves discovering their prey.
"Everyone be careful, these small ones are not easy to deal with!" Lin Yu shouted. Everyone immediately dispersed and started fighting with the small light and shadow. The small light and shadow were extremely flexible, constantly shuttling between the crowd and launching attacks. Their attacks were as fast as lightning, making it difficult to defend against them. For a while, everyone was caught in a bitter battle. While dodging the attacks of the small light and shadow, Lin Yu was thinking about how to deal with them. He found that although these small light and shadow were flexible, their strength was relatively weak. So he shouted to the team members: "Don't fight alone, concentrate your strength and defeat them one by one! We must cooperate with each other and give full play to the advantages of the team!"
Everyone followed Lin Yu's command, cooperated with each other, and gradually gained the upper hand. Ouyang Zhenghao observed the movement trajectory of a small light and shadow. When it pounced again, he dodged to the side, then quickly turned around and stabbed the small light and shadow fiercely with the weapon in his hand. The small light and shadow let out a sharp scream, and its body flashed a few times before disappearing into the air. The other team members followed suit, and after a fierce battle, the small light and shadow were eliminated one by one. However, just when everyone thought the crisis was over, the originally illusory snake woman light and shadow became clear again, with a gleam of anger in its eyes, as if it was completely enraged. It opened its mouth wide and let out an earth-shaking roar. The Yellow River water rolled violently again, as if the end of the world was approaching...
