Chapter 50
Devouring the Crocodile King and Intimidating the Snake King
Whoosh Swoosh Swish!
Murderous intent amassed in the air and mixed with the sea breeze. When it blew over, it cut one’s body like a blade.
Five kilometers away from the battle just now…
Many mutated beasts gathered together.
After feeling this mighty, murderous atmosphere, each of these mutated beasts shuddered in fear… but the greed in their eyes was even more intense.
As if they couldn’t contain themselves any longer, they rushed in to grab their dinner.
Although Ye Bei had told the eight Blood Pythons—Spring, Flower, Autumn, Moon, Pursuing, Joy, Making, and Merry—to go away… the pythons didn’t actually leave. When they saw that the mutated crocodile king and the mutated Reticulated Python had stopped fighting, they rushed back as quickly as they could
Lying coiled in the distance…
The pythons saw that during the short period of time they had been away, their King had grown to more than 20 meters in length.
The energy emanating from his body was several times more intense than it was before. These eight pythons felt as if they were dreaming…
Of course…
Other than the wandering wild beasts…
The people at the mercenary base were also constantly monitoring the situation in the Red Zone.
After the battle between the crocodile king and the mutated Reticulated Python king ended… the person in charge of the mercenary base couldn’t stay put any longer. He directly issued an order to his subordinates: in two days’ time, they would all go to Research Island and capture all the mutated beasts in one fell swoop!!!
Some creatures were peeking at Ye Bei.
Some creatures were overcome with excitement.
And some creatures were incredibly shocked…
As for Ye Bei at this very moment, a cold light emerged in the depths of his murky eyes. Although he was only half the length of the Reticulated Python king, with his body firmly entrenched on the ground, he didn’t appear weak by any means.
On the contrary…
“…surrender to me!”
When he uttered these words, his body gave off the air of an undefeated champion.
However… according to the law of the jungle, an imposing presence isn’t enough. There has to be a fight to the death, and only the winner can be boss.
As soon as Ye Bei’s voice fell, the mutated crocodile king became upset.
“You’re courting death!” he yelled, opening his mouth wide and revealing his fangs… having just battled the Reticulated Python king, at this moment, the crocodile’s teeth were covered in bright-red bloodstains. The moment he opened his mouth, the strong stench of blood suffused the air.
Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh…
Then, using his tail to balance himself, the crocodile king quickly crawled towards Ye Bei, then abruptly turned his body and moved like a black shadow.
It has to be said that… given how slow a regular crocodile crawls, this mutated crocodile was absurdly fast.
Unfortunately, he was facing off against Ye Bei, who had the mind of a human, and immense strength… not to mention combat capabilities no weaker than the crocodile king’s.
“You’re the one who’s courting death!” Ye Bei opened his mouth, and the system immediately filled the venomous fangs at both sides of his mouth with toxins.
As the white fangs were filled with a massive amount of toxins, they became dark yellow in color… seeing that the crocodile king was rushing towards him, Ye Bei hissed coldly. He didn’t try to dodge the crocodile: instead, with his mouth opened wide, he focused all his attention on the crocodile king’s neck.
Hiss hiss hiss!
Swoosh swoosh swoosh…
Rustle!
The crocodile king was moving around at speeds that were simply too fast. As if they were nothing more than toothpicks, the big trees in front of him split apart just like that.
A murderous aura surged wildly from his body.
His eyes were wide open… they had already turned entirely blood-red and were very eerie to look at.
Here comes my chance!
At that moment, Ye Bei’s eyes were fixed dead on the crocodile’s neck.
Huge amounts of data thumped through his mind.
Movement speed of the mutated crocodile king, 18 meters/second.
Length of teeth, estimated bite force of the upper and lower jaws, speed during impact, the strength of the skin on the crocodile’s neck…
Roar!
When the crocodile arrived at less than half a meter from Ye Bei and opened his mouth wide, preparing to deliver a merciless chomp at Ye Bei’s head, Ye Bei finally started to move. His body temperature rose abruptly, and each of his muscles contracted and expanded, attaining their peak state.
10… 20… 30!!
Lots of numbers were seemingly hopping around inside Ye Bei’s head, and when those numbers reached 30, Ye Bei felt every cell in his body running rapidly.
Hiss!
He’s moving!
The very next moment, Ye Bei forcefully moved his head.
His muscles contracted.
The colossal force of his muscles was concentrated in his jaws and upper body.
With a hiss, Ye Bei sunk the sharp, pointy, venomous fangs at both sides of his mouth into the crocodile’s neck.
Hmm?
But when Ye Bei plunged his venomous fangs into the crocodile’s neck and swiftly injected the toxins, Ye Bei felt his body tighten as a blast of immense pain abruptly swept through his body.
However, the crocodile king was evidently even worse off.
Usually, pythons were non-venomous, and their primary way of fighting was to use their bodies to strangle their opponent to death.
But never did the crocodile expect that this scarlet python in front of him… would use his teeth to bite him… what’s more, while the python bit into him, his thoughts immediately started to turn blurry, and the strength in his body also started to fade!!! However, relying on the last of his strength, the crocodile king unceremoniously chomped down on Ye Bei’s body, but what happened next left the crocodile king even more terrified…
Clang!
His razor-sharp teeth…
The teeth that could chomp the bloody hell out of the mutated Reticulated Python king…
When they met Ye Bei’s body, there was merely a slight “clang.” As if he were biting on a half-meter-thick steel plate, no matter how much force he exerted, his teeth couldn’t penetrate even a millimeter deeper. Because of his excessive use of force, the muscles in his mouth were all torn apart into a bloody mess.
But these things were all secondary…
Ka-chak, Ka-chak, Ka-chak…
What was more terrifying was that the crisp clicking sound moved through his teeth, his bones, and then finally spread to his already blurry consciousness.
His teeth…
All of them actually broke when he bit into Ye Bei’s body?
Such a situation… left the mutated crocodile king in utter confusion!
As for the mutated Reticulated Python king, who had been lying to the side throughout the fight, when he saw such a scene, he backed off a little ways in spite of himself. Like the crocodile, a trace of fear surfaced in his eyes… after all, this crocodile was someone that even he himself couldn’t defeat in a fight.
But in the end… all his teeth were broken!
Moreover, his life force was diminishing rapidly.
This was… too unbelievable!!!
Anyway, at this moment, the Reticulated Python was utterly terrified by Ye Bei’s imposing demeanor.
Ye Bei, on the other hand, only felt a slight pain in his body. The crocodile’s teeth hadn’t punctured his skin… which immediately made him excited.
After evolving, his body was so strong that even a crocodile’s teeth couldn’t penetrate his flesh.
With a body like this, who could oppose him?
Thinking about this, Ye Bei completely ignored the pain in his body. After all, no matter how big of an injury he sustained, as long he didn’t die, he could always swiftly recover by devouring more creatures.
Hence, as the crocodile king’s strength slowly faded…
Hiss!
Ye Bei decisively pulled out his fangs from the crocodile’s neck…
Ka-boom!
And, exerting his strength, he flung away the crocodile king with a ka-boom.
Swoosh swoosh…
Then, he quickly paced forward, opened his mouth, and swallowed the crocodile’s head in one mouthful!!!
When the mutated Reticulated Python king, who was sitting next to Ye Bei, saw this, he almost fell over in fright!
