Chapter 130: Grand Exercise 8 [2nd Update]
"Dashu, find out where the others are. Make sure they don't get eaten." Ruan Xi told Dashu this in his mind, feeling very worried.
I hope this stinky snake just wants to lure him, its enemy, over here, and not really want to take those students as snacks.
"Be careful, it's coming again!" He Ziqian was always alert to the movements of the big snake. At the slightest sign of movement, he immediately took Ruan Xi to hide, fleeing left and right, up and down, looking a little embarrassed.
But in fact, this was a test of the mutant snake by the two men. They couldn't keep fighting with the tip of its tail and never see its full appearance, right?
He Ziqian's hand never left Ruan Xi's waist from beginning to end. The tree also extended a branch, which was always tightly wrapped around the waists of both of them. With the double protection, Ruan Xi's safety was basically worry-free, and he could concentrate on looking for opportunities to kill this smelly mutant snake as quickly as possible.
"Oh shit!" The two were floating in the air, and before they could land, the snake's tail came towards them again, like a sharp sword, and it seemed impossible to avoid it.
Suddenly, a green vine sprang out from the side, swung in the air, and lashed at the snake's tail like the strongest whip. With a loud "snap", the tip of the vine broke into several pieces, and then the next piece quickly pushed up and continued to lash at the snake's tail.
With such fierce beatings again and again, no matter how thick and hard the giant snake's skin was, it would eventually be broken. Feeling the pain, the giant snake reflexively retracted its tail and gave up this attack.
Ruan Xi took a deep breath, but was very happy in his heart.
His wood-type attack finally looks good again!
However, at this stage, such an attack was a bit too much for Ruan Xi. He was breathless with fatigue and his body felt a little weak.
"Is this also your ability?"
"Well, the wood-type ability is not only useful for planting, it also has strong combat power! However, I am not strong enough now, and I cannot kill with one blow." Even in his previous life, the chances of him killing with one blow were very few, but he never gave up on this expectation.
"I'm going to summon Chi Lin. I'll deal with the mutant snake later. You rest first." He Ziqian didn't feel that he was overshadowed, nor did he think that his partner's strength would make him lose face. On the contrary, he was very happy to see Ruan Xi becoming stronger step by step. It would be best if she could be stronger than him. In this way, he wouldn't have to worry about Ruan Xi's safety.
But if they really want to reach that state, He Ziqian also understands that they still have a long way to go. Human evolution is a foregone conclusion, but how to go on this road, how long it will take, and where they will end up are unpredictable. They can only cross the river by feeling the stones and take one step at a time.
"Okay." Ruan Xi agreed without hesitation. At the same time, he kept communicating with Dashu about the situation, but he had not yet found the whereabouts of the thirteen students.
This news made Ruan Xi feel a little depressed, but she didn't lose hope completely.
"Keep looking. If there's no one in sight, they must be hidden by the giant snake." The worst outcome would be that the thirteen students had been eaten by the giant snake.
If that was the case, he would have to perform a laparotomy on the snake on the spot. Maybe it could still be saved!
"I understand. Be careful."
Dashu was worried, but he also knew that Ruan Xi's arrangement was the most reasonable. After all, human life is more important than anything else. The primary purpose of their trip was to save those students.
He Ziqian had already summoned Chi Lin. He didn't have to think about what to do. Chi Lin's nerve center had automatically connected with He Ziqian's increasingly powerful mental power. He Ziqian was not yet accustomed to this connection and felt a little dizzy, but what followed was even greater joy.
He felt that he was gradually becoming one with Chi Lin. Even with his eyes closed, he could sense everything around him, because Chi Lin was his eyes. In fact, Chi Lin was him, and he was Chi Lin.
This feeling is so mysterious.
"Boom!" With a loud bang, Chi Lin had already started fighting with the giant snake.
It was not until this moment that Ruan Xi could truly see the true face of the giant snake. It was truly... so ugly that it was unbearable to look at. Its body was covered with black and gray stripes, and it looked extremely dirty visually, as if it was covered in mud that could never be washed off.
Moreover, this giant snake was really smelly. It was ok when only the tip of its tail was exposed just now, but now its entire body appeared in front of them. Ruan Xi and He Ziqian, who were in the mecha, could not help but smell the stench.
Ruan Xi couldn't help but wonder, could it be that those thirteen students had been suffocated to death by this stench?
If that's true, it would be such a miserable death!
But soon, Ruan Xi had no time to think about it. The big snake's attack was very fierce. To be precise, it was violent, extremely violent. Every collision seemed to carry the momentum of destroying the world and the flame of hatred. It gave people the feeling that it wanted to refine Chi Lin along with Ruan Xi and He Ziqian inside. It was almost like it was spitting out a ball of fire.
Could this giant snake be a fire-type mutation? Otherwise, why would it be so angry?
Under He Ziqian's control, Chi Lin fought bravely with the big snake again and again, while Ruan Xi took advantage of every opportunity and used his wood-based ability to grow plants, causing some trouble for the big snake.
For example, he would grow vines that would drill into the gaps between the snake's scales, or try to poke the snake's eyes. Anyway, he would poke wherever the snake was soft, making it even more aggressive.
"Hiss...hiss...hiss..." The big snake raised its head and hissed angrily, but He Ziqian had no intention of stopping. He took the opportunity to leap up and instantly appeared next to the big snake's head. He punched out without hesitation, hitting the big snake's left eye accurately.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss..." The big snake obviously did not expect to be attacked like this. It hissed in pain and looked at Chi Lin with an even more violent look.
"Hiss..." The big snake seemed to be completely angry. Its huge body soared into the air, as if it could fly. Under the surprised gaze of Ruan Xi and He Ziqian, it suddenly crashed into the high rock wall. Then, it crashed one after another without any sign of stopping.
"Oh no, this big snake wants to knock this place down!" Damn, it wants to die with them!
No, this is the big snake's territory. God knows how many secret passages there are to hide in, and where these secret passages lead to. The most likely scenario is that they are buried here, while the big snake can easily escape.
So insidious!
But this tactic is particularly effective!
"You want to bury us alive? You're dreaming!" Ruan Xi was angry. He and He Ziqian had just expressed their feelings to each other. He had just tasted the sweetness of love. He didn't want to die in this stinky snake cave!
Ruan Xi was angry, and the consequences were serious.
Suddenly, a thick vine rose from the depths of darkness and quickly entangled with the tail of the big snake. Then, the big snake's body, which was rising up, paused in the air, and then fell rapidly down.
The big snake was naturally unwilling to be blocked from moving. It twisted and struggled frantically, trying to shake off the entanglement of the vines. Its tail swung wildly at a high frequency, but it could not pull the vines out by the roots no matter what. The vines continued to grow branches and continued to wrap around the big snake.
"Hold on!" He Ziqian immediately understood Ruan Xi's intention, and attacked the big snake without hesitation, each attack becoming more ferocious than the last, aiming at the snake's vital point, and attacking the same spot precisely each time. Even the hardest and thickest scales could not withstand such continuous attacks.
The big snake struggled and fought back even more frantically, and the entire cave was shaken by it and was in danger of collapsing at any time.
Ruan Xi and He Ziqian were fighting fiercely inside and had no time to pay attention to these things. The people outside were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, and they always wanted to disobey military orders and jump into the crack to provide support.
However, God knows whether they jumped to support or to make things worse. After thinking about it, they were just jumping outside in anxiety.
And in the cave, this battle between man and snake finally came to an end. The big snake was ultimately no match for the combined forces of Ruan Xi and He Ziqian. Under repeated precise attacks, the hard and thick scales at seven inches became shattered. Almost in an instant, the long spear made of vines and the long sword of Chi Lin pierced the seven inches of the big snake at the same time. After struggling for a long time, the big snake finally fell to the ground unwillingly, twitched for a while, and was silent.
"Huh... Huh... Huh... I'm so tired..." Inside the Red Scale, Ruan Xi and He Ziqian's supernatural powers and mental strength were almost completely exhausted. Ruan Xi's body was so weak that he couldn't even lift a finger.
He Ziqian supported Ruan Xi who had fallen down in time, hugged him in his arms, and gave him a soothing kiss on the forehead, "Be good, it's over."
At this moment, good news finally came from the big tree. Nearly twenty kilometers away from where they fought the big snake, the big tree finally found the thirteen students who were in a coma. They were all poisoned by snake venom. The big tree followed the same pattern and fed each of them some juice squeezed from its own leaves. After making sure that their lives were temporarily safe, he brought them back.
At the same time, Dashu also brought back a local specialty.
"What is this?" Ruan Xi first saw a bunch of people hanging on the branches of the big tree, and then saw a single white...egg?
"Snake eggs?" He Ziqian immediately responded, feeling incredible.
They killed two mutant giant snakes and finally took out a snake egg. Can we say that this is truly an amazing fate?
"Snake eggs, but they don't belong to the mutant giant snake. I can't be sure. I can't feel any energy fluctuations in the eggs." Dashu told the truth. He really just saw the snake eggs and brought them back. That's all.
"But I can feel the vigorous vitality in this snake egg." It's still alive, so let's keep it for now.
Ruan Xi took the snake egg and wanted to put it into the storage ring, but the snake egg went directly into the illustration space. This accident made Ruan Xi stunned for a moment, but he had no chance to think about it.
"Hurry up, this place is going to collapse!"
He Ziqian controlled Chi Lin, brought Ruan Xi into the control room, and took the other students from Da Shu. He then began to retreat as quickly as possible, taking Lu Hao, who was wrapped in a cocoon, with him.
Finally, just before the cave collapsed completely, Chi Lin broke through the crack like a red lightning and rushed out.
