The automatic follow-up ball was leading the way quickly in front, and Jiang Ran followed closely behind, and soon ran three to five hundred meters.
Since the alarm can sound, it means that the accident must be no more than one thousand meters away.
Jiang Ran estimated the distance, and sure enough, when he was almost there, the red alarm light on the ball disappeared, and the beeping alarm also stopped.
It seems to be nearby.
Jiang Ran carefully moved the bushes, keeping his eyes and ears open, and after a few seconds he heard a muffled groan.
With human lives at stake, she didn't hesitate at all and immediately ran towards the source of the sound.
The scene where the incident occurred soon came into view——
It turned out to be another old acquaintance.
Beside the swamp ahead, an anaconda about seven or eight meters long was entangled with Fu Bo. It kept coiling and wriggling, making Fu Bo's face red and his neck thick. It was obvious that he was breathing out more than breathing in.
"Fu Bo," Jiang Ran walked forward holding a wooden stick, "Can you still hold on?"
Fu Bo shook his head with difficulty: "I can't do it anymore...you..."
Jiang Ran asked the question not because he really wanted to know the answer, but because he hoped that Fu Bo could stay awake through communication and not lose consciousness under the huge force of the anaconda.
In fact, she focused all her attention on observing the anaconda's movements, waiting for it to show the slightest flaw so that she could take immediate rescue action.
Of course, Fu Bo couldn't understand her thoughts, and he was still reciting his will intermittently.
"There are two hundred boxes of games on the top shelf of my bookcase... They are my favorites..."
"Help me...donate to...the Galaxy Game Development Association..."
"Also... help me tell my brother... that I... don't hate him that much..."
In a flash, Jiang Ran seized the opportunity, put the socks on the anaconda's head, and then quickly wrapped the hemp rope around it twice and tied a knot to prevent the anaconda from breaking free.
The anaconda was suddenly blinded and became furious, and it twisted even harder.
Fu Bo felt like his chest was about to burst, and he couldn't muster any strength in his body.
Just then, Ji Fang also rushed over.
When he saw this scene, he was almost dumbfounded.
"How can there be a snake that... that big?"
"This is the Amazonian anaconda," Jiang Ran explained to him, "It's the largest snake in the world. It must weigh over a hundred kilograms at this length, tsk."
Ji Fang swallowed his saliva: "So powerful?"
"This is an animal at the top of the food chain in South America, the king of the Amazon swamps, what do you think?"
"Can we defeat it? Is Fu Bo hopeless?"
"Not really," Jiang Ran said calmly, "Cold-blooded animals don't have the endurance to do that. I'm sure they'll find a flaw."
She glanced at Fu Bo and said, "Don't be fooled by his dying appearance. He's actually not in serious condition. Look, he's wearing the special protective suit issued by the program team."
"Hey," Ji Fang looked where she pointed, "it really is."
"Besides," Jiang Ran continued, "are the emergency life-saving bags provided by the program team just for show? If the danger Fu Bo encountered really exceeded the safety line, it would automatically activate."
"That makes sense!" Ji Fang visibly relaxed. "I was just worrying too much!"
They spoke loudly, and of course Fu Bo, who was in the center of danger, heard it all.
He supported his exhausted body and rolled his eyes with all his strength.
"So what should we do now?" Ji Fang asked.
"Let me think about it." Jiang Ran said.
Jiang Ran estimated the thickness of the anaconda's skin and flesh and felt that a direct attack would be difficult. After thinking about it, he set his sights on the advanced weapon that Fu Bo had dropped aside.
Although she didn't know how to use it, wasn't Ji Fang next to her? Thinking of this, she stretched out the wooden stick in her hand, hooked the weapon over, and threw it directly to Ji Fang.
"Will you use this?"
Ji Fang quickly picked it up: "Yes."
"Okay, then you listen to my instructions." Jiang Ran used a wooden stick to point a little over a meter and a half below the anaconda's head. "This is its seven-inch mark, where its heart is. Be careful when attacking here, and be careful not to hurt Fu Bo."
Ji Fang immediately responded "Okay".
Jiang Ran also gripped the stick tightly, waiting for the next move.
However, half a minute passed and nothing happened.
Jiang Ran turned around and saw Ji Fang still fiddling with the weapon, but the weapon didn't react at all.
"...Didn't you say you could use it?"
Ji Fang was sweating profusely: "I really can do it! But it doesn't respond...it must be broken!"
"If you don't know, then don't know. There's no need to show off," Jiang Ran sighed. "You might as well have told me earlier. I also have a plan B."
Of course Ji Fang was not convinced, he did not lie at all.
The method of using this weapon is obviously very simple, but why is there no response when the button is pressed?
But time is running out and Ji Fang has no time to defend himself.
Jiang Ran threw his stick to him and quickly instructed, "I'm going to use my knife to attack the anaconda's vital point. You just watch from the side. If it straightens up and tries to attack me, hit it with all your strength right in the middle of its upright body with the stick. That's where the spine is. If you can break it successfully, it won't be able to raise its head again."
"Huh?" Ji Fang asked in a panic, "A close combat?"
"How else could you attack from a distance? It's the interstellar age, and you still think you're a magician?"
"But I..."
Ji had just clenched the wooden stick and was about to say something, but Jiang Ran had already thrust the knife into the anaconda's vital point!
She found the right spot and hit the target with one strike!
But the anaconda's skin was too thick, and even though Jiang Ran used all his strength, he could only peel off a layer of skin.
But the seven inches is the most fatal position of the anaconda after all. Even if it only causes this minor injury, it is enough to alert the anaconda!
It immediately stood up angrily, and even though its entire head was covered by the socks, it still relied on its feeling to fight back against this daring little prey!
Ji Fang stared tremblingly until now, but he was not an expert in survival in the wild and his reaction was not that fast.
It was not until Jiang Ran roared "Hurry up" that Ji Fang used all his strength to hit the middle of the anaconda's body.
“Squeak—”
An extremely subtle cracking sound was heard, but Jiang Ran's hearing was so sharp that the sound did not escape her ears.
"Huh..." Jiang Ran breathed a sigh of relief, "It's solved."
"Really?" Ji Fang was still panicking, "But it still..."
Halfway through his words, the anaconda collapsed, and Fu Bo's face, which had already turned blue, gradually began to show a hint of blood.
When the anaconda completely released its tightly bound prey, Fu Bo collapsed to the ground. He had been stiff for so long that his blood circulation was cut off, and when he suddenly returned to normal, he felt numb, painful, and sore all over.
But no matter how uncomfortable he felt, the crisis had been completely resolved, and Fu Bo became heartless again.
"...even the King of Hell...can't take me away," he said with increasing mirth, "so I don't have to donate my game..."
Ji Fang: “…”
What time is it, and this person is still thinking about games?
Jiang Ran also laughed: "It was obviously me who saved you, okay? You should face the facts."
Fu Bo still remembered this man's previous ugly behavior, and said with a "tsk" sound: "I am..."
"Hey!" Jiang Ran suddenly shouted, "The anaconda is trying to run away!"
Before he finished speaking, he followed the direction the anaconda fled.
"Why is she chasing the anaconda?" Ji Fang was very puzzled, but he chased after it without hesitation.
"Hey!" Fu Bo sat up in shock from his dying illness: "You two..."
Fu Bo waved his hands hard, but failed to stop anyone. Finally, he accepted his fate and got up from the ground.
He had no strength left in his body, and his hands and feet were flailing wildly as he ran after him, looking like he had just escaped from a mental hospital.
"Wait for me!"
The author has something to say:
【Small Theater】
Fu Bo: So happy! No need to donate the game anymore!
After returning home, I found that the game was gone.
Brother: I donated it for you when I saw your live broadcast, but I didn’t expect that you didn’t die.
Fu Bo: Ah—I hate my brother the most in the whole world!
