The First Evolution

Chapter 84: Hunt

This big snake was almost 3 meters long. It had no scales on its body, just like unagi and loach; it only had some fluid and patterns on its skin. The skin on its head was very rough. Its 2 gleaming triangular eyes contained viciousness and mocking emotions.

After biting the wounded’s neck, it seemed to be still sucking blood greedily. Its stomach was bulging, and the white texture on its body began to gradually turn into bloody patterns. Not only that, its eyes were fixed on Fang Linyan.

“Damn it, this should be the mutated poisonous python. How did this one escape?”

Fang Linyan took a deep breath; he just felt chills on his back at this moment!

If this mutated poisonous python targetted him first, he most likely wouldn’t be able to dodge the pounce. However, judging from its bloodthirsty characteristic, it should be attracted by the scent of the blood of the wounded. So, as long as Fang Linyan wasn’t injured, the chance that he would be assaulted first was low.

This monster was sucking blood at a strange speed. In just about 10 seconds, the body of the wounded man shriveled; his skin also began to loosen and wrinkle!

The movement in its throat was also getting slower and slower, and its triangular eyes staring at Fang Linyan also became more greedy and vicious. Suddenly, it let go of the corpse and pounce over once again by whipping the ground with its tail to accelerate.

The tail of this monster was extremely powerful. When it hit the ground, the sturdy stone cracked. Its powerful strength was evident. What’s more, the mutated poisonous python could even wiggle in the air, making it hard to be spotted.

Fortunately, Fang Linyan was also prepared at this time. When the monster pounced at him. He activated his talent ability: [Bullet Time]! Of course, he did not forget to immediately change the title of scholar after activating.

Suddenly, the feeling of being isolated from the whole world came to Fang Linyan; even the breathing and heartbeat were clearly audible. The mutant poisonous python’s movements were also instantly slowed down.

Fang Linyan squinted his eyes. His wrist was adjusted bit by bit, and the finger that pulled the trigger was tightened bit by bit. Governor’s Roar’s muzzle flashed, and dozens of irregularly shotgun shrapnel blasted out with a huge kinetic energy.

This shot was calculated by Fang Linyan. He waited until the mutated poisonous python pounced within 2 meters in front of him before firing. It got hit by half of the shrapnels, pushing it back for 4 meters.

Not only that, although the passive special effect, knockback, was not activated, the stun special effect was successfully hit. The snake rolled several times after landing. It wanted to crawl over again, but it was shaking its head when moving forward like it was drunk. Obviously, it had been slowed down by 50%.

At this time Fang Linyan moved sideways while reloading. Although this guerilla tactic was old-fashioned, it was very useful.

But at this moment in a hurry, Fang Linyan made a huge mistake. He directly used the conventional method to aim and fire after reloading the bullet into the magazine. However, after pulling the trigger continuously, he did not see successful firing. Instead, the trigger was making a click sound, then he immediately realized that it was necessary to use that special method to reload. At this time, the mutated poisonous python was about to recover from the slow state.

Making such a mistake at this time could really be described in 1 word, “fatal”!

Fortunately, Fang Linyan was still in [Bullet Time] now, and his thinking speed was greatly enhanced. Facing the mutated poisonous python that had restored its crawling speed, he seemed to immediately make a seemingly unwise decision. That was turning around and fleeing, exposing his back to the enemy!

Needless to say, this mutated poisonous python immediately chased after him.

Its normal crawling speed was obviously faster than Fang Linyan’s running speed. Therefore, after chasing more than 10 meters away, it repeated its pounce attack again, and it bared its fangs to bite at his vest!

At this moment, Fang Linyan’s eyes flashed, he stooped abruptly, grabbed something in front, and threw it behind him.

In normal times, he couldn’t have done so accurately, but he was still in the state of [Bullet Time]. The thing he sent out happened to fly into the mutated poisonous python’s mouth.

After throwing this thing, Fang Linyan also immediately deactivated the [Bullet Time], otherwise, if he delayed any longer, his spirit would be temporarily lowered, and there would be headache sequelae.

What did Fang Linyan throw? It was a human hand!

Yes, it was the arm of the wounded who was sucked dry by the mutant poisonous python before!

Undoubtedly, the wounded had already died, and he had almost become a mummy, lying dead on the ground. He of course would not have any opinion on Fang Linyan using him as a shield.

After the mutated poisonous python bit with all its strength, the 2 fangs on its front end penetrated deeply into the muscle tissue of the wounded’s forearm.

This… was what Fang Linyan wanted to see!

Snake’s unique way of eating makes its physiological structure different from other organisms.

For animals such as humans, horses, cows, and dogs, when eating, their teeth have the function of chewing, rubbing, and smashing food. Therefore, the shape of the teeth is like a cutting knife. It is easy to let go after biting.

But snakes are different, they eat by devouring.

And snakes don’t have claws that could help them hold down their prey. The only way to hold the prey so that they don’t struggle is to entangle. Therefore, in order to make up for such shortcomings, the teeth of snakes often have obvious barbs just like a fish hook. Once it bit the prey, its teeth will go deep into the flesh, making it difficult for the prey to escape.

However, it was this physiological structure that allowed Fang Linyan to find an opportunity to escape from the current dangerous situation!

The mutated poisonous python bit the shriveled hand, and its 2 long teeth were immediately plunged into the flesh. The cunning python immediately found out that it had attacked the wrong target. It pounced up again, trying to attack again!

But here comes the problem. Its barbed teeth were now its biggest obstacle to pursue!!

After the mutated poisonous python shook its head desperately and pulled its teeth out of the flesh, Fang Linyan had already spin cock reloaded the shotgun and pointed it at the snake.

Boom!!

Next, Fang Linyan did not give this mutated poisonous python a chance. He even easily dodged the surprise venom shot. What a joke, when he saw the wounded’s melted face, he had already known that it was caused by the venom. How could he not be wary of it?
