Chapter 355 How big is that snake?
Lan Xingye's dark eyes searched through the chaos and quickly locked onto Qu Tong's location, leading the electric snake towards Qu Tong.
To make it seem less deliberate, I stopped at two other places before coming over.
The ball of lightning, carrying immense power, slammed straight in front of Qu Tong. With a crackling sound, the lightning at the edge incinerated half of the tree stump into ashes. Qu Tong cursed and quickly rolled to the side to dodge.
However, the danger was not over yet. What followed was a huge snake tail with a rustling sound. If it were to hit, it would surely crush you into a pulp.
Xu An, who had been keeping a close eye on Qu Tong, took a step and bumped into the transparent protective shield.
"Despicable!" Fei Wenxing couldn't help but curse out loud!
The unsuspecting onlookers then noticed someone behind the tree stump and gasped in shock.
"Why hasn't the rescue arrived yet? There's no one here who can handle a level nine star beast!"
"It's over, the princess is finished!"
Lan Xingrui, who had caught his breath not far away, had his back to the camp and a cold smile on his lips.
Some people couldn't bear to watch the bloody scene that was about to unfold.
Lan Xingrui's smile suddenly changed halfway through.
Shocked, astonished, incredulous!
A blue afterimage streaked across the sky as the cool mecha retreated rapidly, flew diagonally upwards, spread its arms with sharp steel blades, turned around, and came to a steady stop in mid-air.
The snake's tail crashed down, but no blood splattered.
"You...you dodged it?" Cheng Yao stammered.
Along with Cheng Yao, many mentors and students were also stunned, and even the adjutant stared wide-eyed.
Han Song stared at the familiar cyan mecha in the sky, momentarily stunned: "Is this the speed an S-class mecha should have?"
No one gave him an answer.
Qu Tong escaped, but Kong Yang, on the other side, wasn't so lucky.
The tree, which had been shoveled away by the snake's tail, flew out and hit Kong Yang's leg directly, causing blood to gush out; the bone was definitely broken.
Kong Yang screamed in terror and turned around to push the big tree, but it had no effect whatsoever.
After several battles, Lan Xingrui's men were no longer able to deal with him.
It's also his own fault for being so weak-willed that he didn't seize the opportunity to escape.
The electric snake's nostrils flared slightly as it sniffed the air, then suddenly turned its head, its blood-red eyes meeting Kong Yang's.
Kong Yang's face turned deathly pale instantly, and he was so frightened that he almost fainted, but he had to stay awake because of the intense pain in his legs.
In a disheveled and terrified state, he cried out to Lan Weiying, who was closest to him, "Second Miss, save me! Please save me! I don't want the money anymore!"
Lan Weiying's expression turned cold. She glanced back once and continued to move away from the battlefield.
Kong Yang watched in despair as the grayish-white snake tail drew closer, his pupils dilating to their maximum.
Blood and flesh splattered everywhere, perhaps even brain matter; it was too gruesome to look at.
Qu Tong watched this scene indifferently from inside the mecha, then turned her head and met Lan Xingrui's sinister gaze.
Qu Tong sneered.
She knew that this whole thing was aimed at her.
Does Lan Xingrui think he can definitely kill her, even if it means sacrificing some insignificant people?
Or do you think it's worth it to take the punishment for your dereliction of duty in exchange for her life?
It's true that Lan Xingrui dotes on his younger sister.
But she won't die!
After killing Kong Yang, the electric snake turned its attention to Qu Tong.
Qu Tong took out the sixth-order electric snake crystal from inside the mecha.
Without the isolation provided by the spatial button, the electric snake indeed became frenzied, its blood-red eyes revealing a bloodthirsty killing intent.
She had just deactivated her mental energy while piloting the mecha, and she had also picked up the aura from the scales.
Before she could think any further, the electric snake gathered its strength in its tail, opened its blood-red maw, and charged straight at her.
Qu Tong maneuvered the mecha to make a rapid turn, drawing a 360-degree circular arc, narrowly escaping from under the belly of the electric snake.
Just as Qu Tong was considering whether to risk exposing his strength and use the Star Beast to deal with Lan Xingrui, an ion beam cannon swept overhead and struck the Electric Pattern Serpent, preventing it from taking to the sky again.
The electric snake fell to the ground, its back scales mangled and bloody, and the surrounding greenery was scorched.
Then another ion beam shot hit the same spot accurately.
On the third shot, the entire head of the ninth-tier electric snake was blown open, and its massive body crashed to the ground. The upper half of the snake's body was charred and mixed with blood, a horrifying sight.
"The rescue team has finally arrived?" someone reacted to the shocking scene.
"No, it's His Highness the God of War's mecha!" someone exclaimed.
"Great! The princess is saved."
A black mech was parked outside the protective netting, and a tall, handsome figure in black stepped down. His features were striking, but his face was as cold as ice.
He gave Lan Xingrui a cold glance before turning his gaze to the cyan mecha.
Qu Tong did not fly over in her mecha, but instead landed next to the corpse of the Electric Serpent.
He used the steel blade on the mecha arm to carve out the somewhat broken purple crystal, wiped it with his sleeve, and put it into the spatial button.
Everyone: "..."
A hint of helplessness flashed in Si Yuting's eyes as he beckoned to Qu Tong: "Come here."
Qu Tong circled around the giant snake's tail and ran into Si Yuting's arms.
"Your Highness, I was terrified! It was such a huge snake! I almost didn't see you again."
Everyone was speechless once again.
"!!"
Do you want to hear what you have to say?
Even when terrified, they can still dodge attacks with ease.
I was just up close to a bloody corpse when I was extracting crystals.
The one on the ground, whose face was completely unrecognizable, was the one who was scared to death.
"Right, how come that person is with Miss Lan and the others?" someone questioned.
"Didn't you see the Crown Princess is here too? Shouldn't you be with the Crown Princess?"
"But he just said he didn't want the money anymore?"
The crowd discussed amongst themselves, casting suspicious glances at Lan Weiying who stood to the side.
Lan Weixiang seemed startled, staring blankly at the chaotic battlefield. Si Yuting knew Qu Tong was faking it, yet he still gently patted her back.
The prince she knew was always mindful of his image and would never behave inappropriately in public.
But ever since Qu Tong appeared, everything seems to have changed.
The rescue team's fighter jets arrived late and landed behind Lan Xingye.
The protective shield was opened, and the adjutant and mentors came forward to inquire about the situation.
Si Yuting pulled Qu Tong out of his arms, enveloping her smaller hand in his large palm. His sharp gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Lan Xingrui's face, and he spoke in a cold voice:
"The Electric Pattern Serpent, also known as the Azure Electric Pattern Serpent, is an extremely rare and uncommon star beast. It usually appears in pairs, and the male serpent is far stronger than the female serpent."
"If such danger is not eliminated in advance, and a sixth-tier female snake still appears in the exam mission, Commander Lan, I reserve the right to pursue you for murdering my wife."
Lan Xingrui retorted, "General Si, you're exaggerating. How could you say it was a plot to harm me?"
"Does the commander have any evidence?"
