Chapter 120 Snake Infestation in the City
chapter 120
They stayed here for a whole week.
In the past seven days, Fu Lian has actually managed to build good relationships with most of the warriors in region A1.
He was not only very outgoing, but also very hardworking, often helping the local people with all sorts of tasks.
Most people here like him very much.
Meng Youcheng and Xu Guo were naturally not as popular as him. Although they were both diligent, one was not very talkative and the other was shy. In short, to the warriors and common people here, Fu Lian was a very good person.
If you were to ask who Fu Lian is closest to?
It must be Jeff.
The two often get together, plotting something.
They often chatted and laughed, their relationship was as good as brothers, and Jeff often cooked him all kinds of delicious food.
Just when everyone thought they would stay peacefully for 15 days, an accident completely shattered the peace.
……
"My lord, something terrible has happened!"
Fu Lian, Meng Youcheng, Xu Guo, and Huo Siquan were in his room, discussing the route to region A2...
Just then, a brave warrior rushed in.
Huo Siquan glanced at him, her expression calm. "What's wrong?"
The warrior cried out in terror, "The city... the city is now teeming with monsters, crimson-yellow-eyed serpents, harming people everywhere. Many civilians have been blinded by their venom... and some have even lost their lives!"
"What?!"
Huo Siquan's previously calm face finally showed a hint of anger. He said incredulously, "This place has been peaceful for the past few years, and there haven't been any magical beast invasions for a long time. How is this possible?"
"And there's more than one..."
The warrior continued anxiously, "There are many red-yellow-eyed snakes! They've covered the entire city! My lord, you must go and see for yourself!"
Huo Siquan walked out, leaving behind the order, "Gather all the warriors and wipe out these damned monsters! Make sure everyone is safe!"
The warrior nodded. "Yes...!"
Xu Guo looked at Meng Youcheng, "Major General, we..."
Meng Youcheng took a step forward, "Let's go help."
The three followed closely behind.
……
As soon as they stepped outside, they saw a reddish-yellow-eyed snake. The little guy was very small, probably just born, and only about a meter long. These creatures have a very long lifespan; they can grow to over 30 meters long...
It is indeed a mutated magical beast.
The snake got its name from its yellow eyes.
Fu Lian leaned closer for a look. "The magical beast they're talking about, could it be this little guy?"
Before he could finish speaking, the little guy noticed him, assumed a fighting stance, and looked ready to bite at any moment. Fu Lian smiled, "Little guy, you think you can...?!"
"Pfft...!"
Before anyone could react, the Crimson-Yellow-Eyed Serpent suddenly spat out a stream of deep yellow venom, which landed squarely on Fu Lian's face with incredible speed...
"Sizzle sizzle..."
The venom made a sizzling sound as soon as it touched the skin, like the sound of roasting meat.
Fortunately, Fu Lian's abilities were extraordinary, and this minor poison posed no serious threat. However, the intense pain caused him to frown...
Meng Youcheng drew his sword and cleaved the snake in two with a single stroke!
"hiss……"
Fu Lian wanted to touch his handsome face, but stopped himself for fear of getting the venom on his hands…
After a minute or two, the skin absorbed the venom, and the golden liquid disappeared.
The boy stood up. "I didn't expect this beast... to be so ruthless?"
Meng Youcheng turned and continued walking, saying as he went, "You have immunity to poison, which ordinary people don't. If an ordinary person were to be poisoned by this venom, the skin on their face would be gone!"
Fu Lian and Xu Guo followed closely behind.
Along the way, they saw many red-yellow-eyed snakes of varying sizes, some two or three meters long, others less than a meter. So far, the longest they had encountered was seven or eight meters long...
With each snake he saw, Meng Youcheng's expression froze slightly...
This type of snake is extremely rare, because a female snake only gives birth to one baby snake every ten years. If these snakes all come from the same mother, how old must that mother be?
For magical beasts, the longer they live, the stronger they become. Just like the thousand-year-old magical beast they encountered before, if it had lived any longer, it would have been extremely troublesome.
The other two people clearly didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, walking around casually, slashing at snakes whenever they saw them, as if they were just strolling around town.
Finally, they reached the very center, and the closer they got, the more snakes they encountered…
Here, everything was in chaos. Ordinary people were desperately hiding. Snakes were everywhere in the streets and alleys, poised to fight, ready to spit out a venom when you weren't looking...
The man screamed in pain, and his skin instantly ulcerated.
The warriors, wielding swords and blades, desperately hacked and slashed at them, but their sheer number made it impossible to kill them all!
Most of the warriors were sent here, while a small number remained to defend the city walls.
The people were tormented by these snakes, rolling on the ground in agony. Some were even bitten by the snakes and died instantly.
There must be at least tens of thousands of snakes in total, right?
Without hesitation, Meng Youcheng and his companions picked up their weapons and charged forward...
Fu Lian used his fists, one punch for each small kalami!
……
Despite fighting the snakes for an unknown period of time, the problem remained unresolved. The snakes continued to injure people, spray venom everywhere, and even jump up to bite. Many residents fled the area and went to the basement that Huo Siquan had prepared earlier.
The warriors attacked fiercely, killing many snakes, but some were bitten and died instantly.
As the number of snakes dwindled, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Just then, a woman screamed and ran out of the room…
"Snake...a snake!"
The woman, holding her infant child, accidentally fell to the ground. A small snake seized the opportunity, leaping forward to bite her. Fu Lian, standing nearby, swung his fist, sending the snake flying two or three meters away...
The boy helped the woman up. "Why are you still here? Hurry up and go to the basement!"
The woman thanked her, then picked up her child and ran in the opposite direction...
Fu Lian was just about to continue the fight...
"ah……!"
A piercing scream shattered the sky.
Everyone turned to look. The woman had tripped over a stone and fallen to the ground. In front of her was a giant python, larger than an elephant. The snake's eyes were reddish-yellow, and its height was immeasurable. It was flicking its long tongue...
This snake must be at least thirty or forty meters long, right?
It looks like it could swallow seven or eight humans in one bite!
The crowd's eyes widened in shock. Their concern wasn't about how ferocious the snake was, but rather that the woman would most likely die in its jaws!
The snake suddenly attacked, but instead of biting the woman, it forcefully flung her away. Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief...
Only then did they realize that the infant, still in swaddling clothes, had fallen from the sky, and the giant snake had opened its massive jaws, ready to swallow it whole!
It turns out the snake's target was the baby!
The crowd drew their swords and rushed forward, trying to stop them, but they were too far away to do so!
Just when everyone thought the child was beyond saving, Fu Lian's expression froze. Without thinking, he leaped into the air, and two large wings instantly sprouted from his back...
Using the power of his wings, he caught the child in mid-air.
However, the two did not leave the battlefield, and the giant python swallowed them all in one gulp!
Everyone present was stunned for a moment...
The woman also got up from the ground, crying out, "My child... my child..."
"Bang!!!"
Just then, only a second or two after swallowing Fu Lian, the giant python suddenly exploded, its body parts flying everywhere, creating a huge gust of wind. Everyone quickly covered their eyes and looked in that direction...
In the mist, blood fell from the sky like a rain of blood.
The boy placed the swaddled child inside his clothes to shield him from the bloodshed. He walked through the blood, thinking, "I'm fucking hungry, I even want to eat a baby!"
After a long while, the blood rain finally stopped.
Fu Lian carefully took the child out, wiped the blood off his hands, and only then dared to look at the child...
This little guy doesn't cry or fuss, he sleeps like a log!
Fu Lian curled the corners of his lips...
The woman in the distance rushed over. The boy's large wings were still on his back, and the red cloth around his neck was blown open by the huge dust...
Everyone immediately realized that he was a mutant that everyone hated!
The woman approached Fu Lian, staring at him with a terrified expression...
The boy then realized that he had revealed his identity in his haste.
He looked up at the woman, handed the child to her, and said, "I did save your son's life, so even if you want to condemn me for being a mutant, please don't say it. I don't expect you to thank me, but I hope you won't repay kindness with enmity, and won't be like those people..."
Before he could finish speaking, the woman, holding her child, suddenly uttered two words, "Thank you..."
Fu Lian was stunned, and the words he was about to say were swallowed back down his throat.
"What...did you say?"
"Thank you for saving my son's life!"
