"Hehe, I've been in the Amazon for so long, I've eaten all kinds of snakes, now I'm just missing you."
Ye Feng continued to push aside the vegetation, trying to find the snake's head.
But before the stick could even touch the plant, a head shot out from the vines.
"hiss!……"
After a highly recognizable snake hiss, the stick in Ye Feng's hand trembled slightly.
He didn't even have time to react, and he didn't even get a clear look at the snake's appearance.
I could only vaguely make out a thick, indistinct snake's body.
When he came to his senses, the giant snake retreated back into the vegetation.
The lightning-fast attack caused everyone to instinctively step back; it was simply too fast.
"What...what is this snake? It's so fat and so fast?"
Fu Changxiong couldn't help but ask.
Ye Feng's smile remained unchanged. Without answering, he roughly parted the vines.
Finally, the serpent's full form was revealed.
This is an Amazonian giant viper—
One of the largest venomous snakes in the Amazon, on par with the king cobra, it can reach three meters in length, with the largest reportedly reaching 3.7 meters.
They have a black stripe from their eyes to their jaws, and their tails end in a needle-like shape.
This type of snake is typically brown, yellow, or pink, with dark brown or black diamond-shaped markings on its back.
The strip in front of Ye Feng was a mix of black and gray.
Judging from the size of his torso, he is clearly an adult.
"Be careful, this is a large venomous snake that is just as dangerous as the king cobra."
But for humans, this thing is far more dangerous than a king cobra.
Their venom has an anticoagulant mechanism; once bitten, it can cause irreversible internal bleeding and damage muscle tissue.
What does "irreversible" mean?
Fu Changxiong couldn't help but ask.
Ye Feng suppressed his smile, his eyes fixed on the tongue that kept flicking its tongue, not daring to look away for even a second.
"That means that even if there is a hospital nearby, it can only stop or delay the worsening of the injury, but it cannot help you recover in a short time."
The giant viper's venom is extremely potent and can cause extensive tissue necrosis in the human body.
This is enough to cause an adult to die within an hour of being bitten.
And as you just saw, this guy's attack speed is extremely fast, making it impossible to defend against.
What's most terrifying is that they have well-developed muscle tissue, allowing them to spring up from the ground and launch an attack that can directly bite a person's stomach.
In other words, it might not necessarily bite our calves; most of our body could be within its attack range.
Upon hearing this, everyone instinctively took two steps back.
"Then let's just kill it."
Liu Sisi looked terrified; it seems that girls have an innate fear of snakes.
"no."
Ye Feng resolutely refused.
"Such good snake venom, it's such a waste to waste it. Who knows, it might be very useful in the future."
At this moment, the giant viper had curled up into a ball, looking just like a huge pile of brown feces.
It kept flicking its tongue, its front half arched into a wave shape, and its head kept turning slightly as it followed Ye Feng's slowly circling figure.
Ye Feng had already caught many venomous snakes, but he dared not slack off in the slightest.
Because the one in front of us is moving at an incredibly fast speed.
The fish scales inside his pants weren't completely covered; only some important blood vessels were preserved.
Let alone being bitten, even being slightly grazed by a venomous fang would be fatal.
He slowly circled the giant viper, his stick probing forward repeatedly, looking for a good opportunity.
But the snake seemed to have read his mind, though it would occasionally bite the stick.
But after biting, it retracted its head back into its coiled body, and its head followed his movements the whole time.
Ye Feng desperately wanted to grab it by the neck and capture it alive, but he couldn't find a single opportunity.
After testing the waters for a while, Ye Feng became anxious. He didn't have time to waste with a snake.
"Da Xiong, Little Stutterer, just pick it up for me."
After saying that, the two cautiously took two steps forward, exchanged a glance, and then directly inserted the stick into the center of the coiled snake's body.
With a sudden lift, the entire snake was lifted up.
Previously, because the snake was coiled up, it was impossible to see its full appearance.
Now, they all see it clearly.
This snake is definitely longer than 2.5 meters; to be precise, it should be around 2.7 meters long.
The thickest part of its body was about the size of Ye Feng's calf.
"Wow! Bro, this thing's actually pretty heavy."
Fu Changxiong clearly felt the force coming from the stick.
The giant viper was currently poking its head out in all directions, seemingly looking for a place to escape.
"It's not only huge, but it also produces a lot of toxins, otherwise I would have killed it long ago."
Ye Feng directed the two men to slowly put it down.
As he expected, the snake immediately slithered into the vines as soon as it hit the ground.
While this attack speed is fast, the movement speed is much slower.
After all, its massive, obese body was simply too large to move quickly.
Ye Feng was prepared; when the snake had crawled less than a meter, he used a stick to pin down its head.
Seeing this, the giant viper began to wrap its body around the stick. Ye Feng reacted quickly and stepped forward, grabbing the snake's head.
When he tried to lift it up, he clearly felt its astonishing weight.
This snake was heavier than the Gaboon viper and king cobra we had encountered before.
Ye Feng weighed it carefully and estimated that the snake should weigh a little over 20 jin, around 22 jin.
"My goodness, what a fat snake! It's almost as big as some small pythons."
Knowing that Ye Feng wanted to obtain snake venom, Liu Sisi walked over, rummaged through her backpack, pulled out a small jar, and quickly cut off a piece of bandage to seal the jar's opening.
Ye Feng took the jar and looked excitedly at the giant viper's brownish-red snake eyes.
"Let me see if your strength matches your size."
After saying that, he placed the jar against the snake's mouth.
The giant viper immediately took a bite, and with a "sizzle" sound, the flesh was swallowed through the tiny holes in the bandage.
Ye Feng saw two tiny water droplets spraying out from the crescent-shaped, curved fangs.
Unlike other venomous snakes, the venom of the giant viper is almost colorless and transparent.
It's a bit like... mineral water.
"Hehehe."
Ye Feng chuckled happily.
"This amount of venom produced should be about the same as that of a king cobra."
Fu Changxiong stepped forward and asked, puzzled:
"Brother, didn't you say this snake venom evaporates quickly? What are you planning to use it for?"
Ye Feng smiled and shook his head.
"I don't know what to do for now, but I think it will come in handy eventually."
Don't worry, as long as it's sealed properly, it shouldn't evaporate within two days. I'll definitely find it useful.
