Chapter 331: Chapter 295 Battle of Man and Snake

The little she-devil Annie was not scared of anything, but was very sensitive towards long slimy worms. Looking at the sea snake which suddenly emerged from the sea, and looking at its disgusting triangular face and blood-red tongue, Annie went pale and her whole body weakened. She could not even stand, not to mention run away. She could only scream loudly for help!

“Ah… Uncle help, help…”

“Uncle Roke, help!”

Looking at the sea snake that was pouncing at a lightning fast speed, a terrified Annie could only subconsciously cover her eyes and scream.

“Miss, Miss…”

“No…”

Seeing the sea snake open its mouth wide, pouncing towards Annie, who was too terrified to move, Elder Berger and the Corpse Wizard King charged forward without thinking. Elder Berger commanded the Lightning Bird he was on to dive straight down, and the Corpse Wizard King, at the risk of exposing his true identity, rushed forward like the wind with a ‘whoosh’, a faint dark aura emitting from his body.

Seeing the helpless Annie and her terrified expression, it seemed like time had gone back to over ten thousand years ago, back to the cold night. That night, the Corpse Wizard King watched his daughter die in his arms…

The Lightning Bird under Elder Berger was fast, and the Corpse Wizard King was so quick that he left behind a series of afterimages, and gave out an ear-splitting sonic boom. Unfortunately, the sea snake, which was inches away from Annie, was not slow either. In a blink of an eye, the wide-open, salivating, big red mouth of the sea snake was closing on Annie’s little head.

Ah…

Smelling its disgusting fishy breath, and looking at the big red mouth coming down upon her like a fish tank, Annie let out a shriek, before fainting dead away. Elder Berger and the Corpse Wizard King might be fast, but in that moment, they could not save her in time no matter what they did.

“No…”

Seeing that he could not save her in time, Elder Berger felt a chill in his heart.

Annie was very mischievous. All these years, he lost count of how much trouble she brought him. However, having taken care of her for so many years, he had long since seen the girl, who had lost both her parents from young, as his own granddaughter.

Furthermore, the Chief Elder was never in one place for long. Even though he might spend very little time with Annie, but he would always give in to his precious granddaughter. If Annie were to meet with any misfortune, he would not know how to explain it to him.

Not only did the Chief Elder always listen to Annie, the Elders of the Barkley Family also often gave in to Annie’s whims. Rumor had it that even the God of Fire, who had not been seen in thousands of years, also doted upon the mischievous Annie.

“Soul Devouring Lance!”

Elder Berger felt a chill in his heart, but the Corpse Wizard King went red in the eyes, and with a roar, gathered dark aura and formed it into a black spear that emitted waves of cold air. Just by looking at it, a few soldiers immediately felt light-headed, as if their heads had been hit by an invisible force.

At the critical moment, Yang Ling harrumphed coldly. In a flash, he moved his body next to Annie, using the Wind Evasion Technique. He scooped her up in one movement, narrowly avoiding the sea snake’s blood-red mouth.

Tsk tsk, such a young age, but the figure is not bad!

Feeling a firm and bouncy bun in his palm, Yang Ling subconsciously gave it a squeeze.

The little she-devil Annie might be a mischievous kid, but her physical development was far beyond children of her age. It was not known if it was because she had eaten too much spiritual items of heaven and earth, or because of practicing the Family Magic. Anyway, looking at Chief Elder Faern’s short and fat stature, one can rule out genetics.

Howl…

Seeing the fat meat being taken away right under its nose by Yang Ling, the sea snake was furious. After letting out a roar, it shot out a sharp water arrow, going right for Yang Ling’s chest. Not letting up, it showed its long body. Its neck alone had a width of a water pail, and was five to six meters long. The part of its black body that was out of the water was already more than ten meters long. It was unbelievably long!

“Oh heavens, it’s the Black Mamba Giant Python! Quick, Giant Crossbow men, get ready!”

“Quick, guard the deck, do not let it climb up at all costs!”

Seeing that the sea snake stretch its long body from beneath the surface of the sea, everybody was shocked. At first, they had thought that this sea snake was just slightly larger than normal. They did not expect it to be a Black Mamba Giant Python.

Different from normal sea snakes, the lower part of the Black Mamba Giant Python’s body was slightly flatter. Its tail end was as flat as glue, and it could swim extremely fast in water. More importantly, it was astonishingly long. It was said that once, someone had seen a Black Mamba Giant Python in the deep sea, that could wrap itself around a big ship a few times.

Not only was the size of the Black Mamba Giant Python astonishing, it was also covered with closely knit, smooth scales. An ordinary crossbow arrow fired at it, would be nothing to it. As it usually appeared in places where few had ever gone, so when it first appeared to show only its head and neck, nobody would have thought that it was a terrifying Black Mamba Giant Python.

“Sophia, catch!”

Feeling that the Black Mamba Giant Python would not let up on its chase, and that its blood-red mouth was inches away, Yang Ling threw the unconscious Annie out of his arms. Expanding the Ice-sealing Throne within his body, and drawing out the sharp Blood Elf Dagger, Yang Ling shifted sideways to dodge the Black Mamba Giant Python’s blood-red mouth, and ruthlessly stabbed its body.

Howl…

In extreme pain, the Black Mamba Giant Python opened its mouth to shoot a sharp ice arrow, smashing a big hole in the deck with a ‘boom’. It then moved its tail, ad it emerged from the other side of the big ship, directly looking to attack Sophia, who was behind Yang Ling.

“Look out!”

Looking at Sophia reaching out with both hands to catch Annie in mid air, Yang Ling was stunned to see the tail flying out from behind like lightning. Again, he used the Wind Evasion Technique to move quickly.

Splutter….

Using the Ice-sealing Throne to forcibly resist the Black Mamba Giant Python’s strike, Yang Ling pushed Sophia, who was carrying Annie, out of the way. Just as he was going to stab the Black Mamba Giant Python in its tail, an unexpected incident occurred!

The Black Mamba Giant Python not only did not retreat, but advance, using its strong and powerful tail to lift Yang Ling up with a ‘swoosh’, wrapping its tail tightly around him like a dumpling. It contracted its tail with all its might, with the intention to drag him into the sea.

“Hmph, courting death!”

Realizing the Black Mamba Giant Python’s intention, Yang Ling snorted coldly, and threw the sharp Blood Elf Dagger away. With both arms, he hugged the snake tail tight. With a roar, the Ice-sealing Throne grew sharp spikes, stabbing deeply into the Black Mamba Giant Python’s body. The bone-chilling cold caused a layer of ice to immediately form on its slick body.

The size of the Black Mamba Giant Python was astonishing and its strength was also incredible. In a instant, it flattened the railing on the ship, which was made of fine iron, and as thick as a thigh. But Yang Ling, who had leveled up to intermediate level Divine Wizard, and had greatly improved on his Body Honing Wizard Mantra, also had strength beyond imagination. Circulating his Physical Defense Wizard Power at high speed, not only did he not get dragged into the sea by the Black Mamba Giant Python, he instead used his strength to drag it on board bit by bit.

Howl…

After the snake tail was in Yang Ling’s tight hold, the Black Mamba Giant Python was enraged. It contracted its body tightly, and then suddenly expanded, its body growing by another length, like an amazingly springy rope. While the snake tail held on to Yang Ling, the snake’s head went round the big ship, reaching Yang Ling’s head with a ‘whoosh’.

“A beast courting death!”

Just as the shocked Yang Ling was about to use the Wind Evasion Technique to move out of the way, at the critical moment, the Corpse Wizard King ruthlessly threw the Soul Devouring Lance in his hand, hitting the Black Mamba Giant Python square in its triangular head. The lance then dissolved into a dark gas, eerily burrowing into its brain.

Howl…

In excruciating pain, the Black Mamba Python started thrashing violently, smashing the railing to bits with a ‘whoosh’, and sweeping a crossbow vehicle into the sea. But, with its head spinning, it was no longer able to attack effectively.

“Brothers, charge!”

“Use the Pear Blossom Crossbow. Quick, use the Pear Blossom Crossbow and fire at the snake’s head!”

Ashnamov commanded the soldier to use the Pear Blossom Crossbow to attack, then led a close group of guards to charge ahead and pin down the Black Mamba Giant Python’s body. A sharp axe went up and down, cutting down a length of the Black Mamba Giant Python’s tail with a ‘thwack’.

One length, two lengths, three lengths… Everyone worked together in sync. Yang Ling was in charge of dragging the Black Mamba Giant Python on board, bit by bit, the soldiers were in charge of pinning it down and Ashnamov, standing at more than three meters tall and possessing great strength, was the butcher, his sharp axe moving up and down without stopping.

The size of the Black Mamba Giant Python was astonishing and the length of its body far exceeded everyone’s expectations. But, no matter how long the body was, it was cut short by Ashnamov, length by length. Under the magical attacks of people like the Corpse Wizard King, Sophia, Anna and Elder Berger, the Black Mamba Python Giant’s struggles grew weaker, and its cries got softer. The deck was covered in fresh, bright red blood.

There were no more doubts about the ending!

“Tsk tsk, we can eat snake meat every day now. We won’t be able to finish it even in three months!” After catching his breath and looking at the snake meat piled up into two small hills, Yang Ling shook his head.

Stroking the hair of Annie, who was slowly regaining consciousness, the Corpse Wizard King smiled and said, “Hehe, if we can’t finish it, we can use it to fish, or see if we can’t fish a bigger sea snake out!”

Fish for a bigger sea snake?

After hearing what the Corpse Wizard King said, Ashnamov shook his head and smiled wryly. “Sir, even though I don’t know why the Black Mamba Giant Python appeared here, and am not sure if there are more of its kind nearby, but they have a keen sense and are extremely vengeful. For our safety, we better scrub the deck clean and leave this area of the sea immediately!”

At sea, the more venomous and the more terrifyingly powerful the sea snake, the more vengeful it was. Just in case, Ashnamov could not wait to leave immediately.

“‘Okay, haul out the crossbow vehicle that has dropped into the sea. Leave the sea area immediately once the deck has been cleaned!” Seeing the serious look on Ashnamov’s face, Yang Ling, understanding that it was not wise to stay in this place for long, gave his commands loudly.

“Quick, quick, wash these snake meat clean. Move them to the bottom of the ship and preserve them!”

“Clean the deck, hurry!”

Under Ashnamov’s command, the people got busy. Some of them hauled out the crossbow vehicle in the sea, some repaired the railing crushed by the Black Mamba Giant Python, some carried water to clean the deck…

In the hustle and bustle, no one noticed that the longest length of the snake’s tail had fallen into the sea, under the ship’s fender. And even more so, no one noticed that that length of tail attached itself to the bottom of the ship, as if alive, tendrils of red blood seeping from it.
