Chapter 338 - 340: The Giant Python Coiling Across the River
CHAPTER 338: CHAPTER 340: THE GIANT PYTHON COILING ACROSS THE RIVER
The convoy continued along the asphalt road, moving forward, and compared to the mountain roads, the speed at this time was much faster.
Although the Li River runs through Lijiang City, to reach the urban area of Lijiang City, one still needs to cross the river because the main city district of Lijiang is on the other side of the river.
Fortunately, Lijiang has already built the Li River Bridge, and once you cross the Li River Bridge, you can quickly reach the urban area of Lijiang City.
Half an hour later, the convoy’s position had already approached the Li River, and Lu Chuan and the others could see the Li River and a bridge spanning north to south through the car window.
"We’re here! The Li River Bridge is here!"
Zhao Lin leaned half her body out of the car window, excitedly cheering as she fixed her eyes on the big river bridge ahead.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Lu Chuan could take in everything ahead without having to lean out like Zhao Lin.
The Li River Bridge appeared like an iron dragon suspended over the vast river surface, with massive bridge piers rooted in the water. Metal cables, arranged like strings of a harp, sloped and stretched the length of the bridge.
The river was exceptionally wide, with waves rolling. Under the sunlight, the surface shimmered with light, like scattered gold. In the distance, a thin mist rose from the river surface, spreading with the wind, covering a section of the river. Vaguely, a giant fierce fish exposed its back in the mist, fleetingly appearing.
The convoy continued forward and soon drove onto the bridge. At this moment, there was a congestion of vehicles on the bridge, and a Mutated Giant Turtle was clearing the way. Due to the time required, the entire convoy was forced to slow down, moving slowly across the bridge.
Bang! Bang!
Under the impact of the Mutated Giant Turtle, the blocking cars were like being rammed by a truck, suddenly flying to both sides and heavily crashing onto the roadside ground and vehicles, erupting in a deafening roar.
Unexpectedly, at this time, a loud roar sounded from under the bridge.
Roar!
Immediately following, the entire bridge trembled slightly, as if something massive was climbing up along the bridge pier.
The expressions of Lu Chuan and the others changed instantly.
"Lu Chuan, there seems to be a Fierce Beast coming up!"
Zhao Lin hurriedly opened the car door, pulling Little Qiqi out, simultaneously drawing a steel knife and shouting to Lu Chuan in the passenger seat.
Lu Chuan frowned slightly, not expecting to provoke a Fierce Beast just by crossing a bridge. With a thought, all the Corpse Puppets under his command gathered towards him.
Rumble~
In that moment, the thing under the bridge had already climbed up, its massive body blocking the convoy’s path, glaring menacingly at Lu Chuan and the others.
"Such a big snake!"
Zhao Lin said with some surprise.
It was a giant python over fifteen meters long, a true behemoth. Its body, thicker than a water barrel, coiled on the road. Covered in black, glossy scales, it presented a chilling aura that added to the terror of the giant python.
At this moment, the massive head of the python was raised high, with a pair of emerald green eyes staring directly at Lu Chuan and his group, filled with cruelty and indifference, an aura of malevolence emanating from it.
Lu Chuan squinted his eyes slightly. It’s just a fourth-tier Fierce Beast, no threat to the convoy.
"Roar~"
The giant python suddenly hissed at Lu Chuan and the others, its mouth opening wide to reveal rows of sharp, densely packed teeth, flashing with cold light.
At the same time, the roar was thunderous, sweeping through the air, deafening, as though the entire space on the bridge was trembling, the ferocious might incredibly terrifying.
Zhao Lin covered Little Qiqi’s ears, frowning as she endured the uncomfortable roar.
In the next moment, under Lu Chuan’s control, the Corpse Puppets charged out swiftly, like streaks of lightning, towards the giant python.
Rumble~
Er Pang took the lead, rushing at the front of the squad, the long stick in his hand piercing the air with a sharp whistling sound.
As Er Pang charged at it, a look of violence flashed in the Black-Scaled Python’s eyes. After a roar, it spewed a terrifying cold stream, like a torrent.
Instantly, the bridge surface ahead quickly frosted over, spreading fast, and soon the cold stream crashed into Er Pang and other Corpse Puppets.
Er Pang and the tank-type Corpse Puppets couldn’t evade in time. Only Lightning One and the agile-type Corpse Puppets leaped out from the group, charging towards the Black-Scaled Python from both sides.
Da Pang, Tyrant One, and several others were directly frozen in place by the sudden frost, their bodies covered in cold white frost.
However, this frost could only temporarily freeze the Corpse Puppets, slowing their actions. Soon, cracks appeared in the frost on Tyrant One and others, relying on their strength.
Only Er Pang pressed forward, spiritual essence surging within, using the skill Profound Light Ink Armor on himself, unaffected by the cold stream.
At this moment, a hiss, carrying pain and anger, rose from the Black-Scaled Python, but the agile Corpse Puppets had acted.
Lightning One’s Corpse Puppet, appearing like black lights, rapidly jumped on the cables between the vehicles on the bridge, approaching the Black-Scaled Python in the blink of an eye.
In an instant, the steel claws in their hands slashed down fiercely, creating chilling blades of light that erupted in the air.
Tear~
Instantly, the steel claws of Lightning One and others ripped open the hard black scales of the Black-Scaled Python, creating long gashes.
Immediately, hot blood gushed from the wounds on the sides of the snake’s body, instantly dyeing the bridge surface red.
Rumble~
The immense pain in its body drove the Black-Scaled Python into a frenzy, turning to snap at Lightning One and the others, but they were too fast, leaving the Black-Scaled Python crashing into vehicles on both sides, achieving nothing.
In desperation, the Black-Scaled Python resorted to spewing cold streams, yet the agile Corpse Puppets, akin to fleas, left it helpless.
Bang, bang, bang~
By this time, Er Pang, who had been charging forward, had already arrived. The bridge surface echoed with thunderous steps, a long stick shrouded in black spiritual light swinging fiercely.
Boom!
With a heart-wrenching scream, the Black-Scaled Python, which had been launching attacks, crashed heavily onto the bridge.
The half-length segment of the Black-Scaled Python’s upper body was completely shattered by Er Pang’s strike, its thick internal spine also shattered, preventing it from raising its body again.
Before the Black-Scaled Python could recover from the pain, Da Pang and other Corpse Puppets, freed from their restraints, charged over, their millstone-sized fists ferociously pounding the giant python’s head.
Bang, bang, bang~
