Python Rebirth on Survival Island

The Hunting Squad and the Laboratory

Deep in the jungle…

Five figures wearing night-vision goggles shuttled back and forth, giving company to the endless darkness.

These five people made up a small team.

The group was comprised of four men and one woman, and they made their way forward in a single file.

Each person wore a huge backpack filled with many weapons and lots of food.

At the same time, a pistol hung on each of their left and right hips.

And each of them held an assault rifle…

Considering they had come to the jungle dressed in such a manner, it was clear that they had prepared in advance.

Furthermore, all of these individuals had a large build. Their muscles were fully developed, and even at a glance, it was obvious that they had gone through special training.

“Hurry! Keep going! The snake colony’s location has already been confirmed. The moment you find the snakes, release your sulfur bombs and spray them with bullets… Don’t let a single one get away.” The person walking at the forefront of the group frostily gave his command in English while swiftly moving forward.

He had a hulking physique and was at least 1.9 meters tall.

His skin was tan.

Even though he was carrying a large amount of supplies while trekking through the dark jungle, his steps were as effortless as if he were on level ground.

Bang bang bang…

In a split second, he used his machine gun to shoot and kill the few peculiar creatures that occasionally appeared in his line of sight.

“Jonah! Why didn’t we travel during the day? The jungle is so dangerous at night! This is such a horrible place!! My skin’s all stained from these filthy tree branches. It’ll be awful if they leave a scar.”

It was a woman’s voice, and she spoke in English as well. Her words were directed towards the man leading them.

The woman looked very much like one of Charlie’s Angels.

Her two arms were exposed, and the bulging muscles in them looked like two mini hills. How much she must have trained to achieve them!

“Shut up, Ella! This is an order! The Blood Python we captured didn’t have what we’re looking for… That item must be with some other Blood Python! In order to prevent them from swallowing and digesting it, we must get it back as soon as we can. As for the stains on your body, you’ve got to be kidding! That’s not important.” Jonah didn’t even bother to look back.

“Exactly!” another man spoke up. “It doesn’t matter what time it is! Although the wild beasts here are very strong, they won’t be able to withstand bullets and gunpowder! Finding the item is what’s most important.”

This man was third in the line. He was very tall, but he was also visibly thinner, and his whole person gave off an intellectual vibe.

When he spoke, there was a hint of a sparkle in his eyes, although no one knew what he was really thinking.

“Marlon! Did a Blood Python really swallow the pearl? …I hope our expedition this time will prove worthwhile.” The man standing fourth in line directed his words towards the skinny man in front of him.

“Hal! Regardless of the circumstances, if what the security video in the lab showed is true, this expedition will be worth even our lives. We’re a hunting squad, after all,” Marlon replied.

The man right at the back of the line was a caucasian with agile steps. Throughout the entire journey, he was watching his surroundings for any sign of the enemy, and he didn’t open his mouth once.

Hiss hiss…

In the jungle, Ye Bei coiled himself around a tree trunk.

His scarlet-red forked tongue kept poking out of his mouth.

Because he was on higher ground and had deliberately concealed his breath…

Plus, snakes were cold-blooded animals. After having gone through three stages of evolution, Ye Bei was perfectly capable of going undetected by the humans.

On the contrary…

…the five people didn’t detect even a trace of Ye Bei’s whereabouts.

But Ye Bei had a panoramic view of all their movements.

“A hunting squad?” The expression in Ye Bei’s eyes turned ominous. “They’re not much different from poachers. In fact, these guys are even more repulsive. Regardless of what creature it is, as long as it appears in their line of sight, they’ll kill it without a second thought.”

“Pearl! Laboratory…”

Evidently, there were many secrets yet to be revealed here.

The wheels in Ye Bei’s mind turned a mile a minute.

After hearing the conversation between these five people, Ye Bei recalled what had happened when he had just been reborn as a snake. After he first arrived on this island, a huge Blood Python had given him a mystic pearl, and he had eaten it.

These humans seemed to be looking for the mystic pearl.

“System, didn’t you mention before that I know the regional beasts’ language? Strictly speaking, humans are animals too! If these people were already on the island when I gained this ability, does that mean that I can communicate with them directly?”

Hiss hiss hiss!

Up on the tree trunk, Ye Bei opened his mouth, and his voice was very soft.

“According to the System’s deductions, these humans were indeed on this island before you gained the ability! As long as you want to, you can communicate with them without any barriers! In addition, as advanced beings, although humans have very poor combat abilities without weapons, their genes are nevertheless very advanced! According to the System’s information, eating a human yields a very high value of points. Every person you consume will gain you 5000 Evolution Points!”

The System’s reply was very straightforward.

Furthermore, while answering, the System dangled a carrot in front of Ye Bei.

A human being was worth 5000 Evolution Points.

Five humans totaled 25000 points.

If… Ye Bei consumed ten humans, he would attain his 100000 Evolution Points and complete the fourth stage of the Blood Python’s evolution!

At that thought, a trace of predatory intent appeared in Ye Bei’s eyes.

Up on the tree trunk, Ye Bei revealed his blood-red forked tongue and coldly asked the question, “Humans! Are you looking for me?” His voice was laced with murderous intent.

Huh?

Whirl whirl whirl…

The five people, who were heading forward at a fast pace, immediately stopped in their tracks when they heard Ye Bei’s voice.

At the same time, they whirled their heads around to look at Ye Bei.

And also at the same time, a layer of cold sweat covered them from head to toe…

Because at the very moment they heard Ye Bei’s voice, they knew deep inside that it definitely wasn’t the voice of a human being!!

And then they turned their eyes in the direction Ye Bei was in…

When they saw the giant snake coiled on the tree trunk, they were all taken aback!!!
