Chapter 31: Blood Orchid

Of course, Fang Linyan's vigilance is one thing, the most important thing is that the poison spraying of the mutant poisonous python is not a bullet shooting, it first needs people to stand up, then open their mouths, then aim, and finally spray poison.

Such a series of steps can be said to take a lot of time, even if Fang Linyan does not enter the bullet time, he only needs to see this guy suddenly stand, and he will immediately dodge, and it is definitely not an easy thing to be sprayed.

In such a situation, Fang Linyan only fired three shots, and this mutant poisonous python couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to run, but Fang Linyan got close and made up for another shot, and it directly entered a state of convulsions and waiting for death, at this time Fang Linyan hesitated, strode forward and pinched its seven inches, and then took out a knife from his waist, pried off one of its fangs, and then threw his body into the deep ditch below, which was basically impossible to find in the dark.

It doesn't wait for dawn for the smelly predators to follow the smell of blood and eat it all in a short time.

Fang Linyan was about to deal with another troublesome matter next, he looked at the unlucky corpse of the wounded man next to him, sighed, and had to carry it back again.

After returning to the battlefield, Fang Linyan found that the battle had come to an end, the huge Titan Python had collapsed to the ground, the blood under his body had already stained red with grit, if he could still let out an angry and painful roar from time to time, it would almost make people feel that this was already a corpse. However, at this time, there was still fire pouring down on it, so it was only a matter of minutes before life was harvested.

It could be seen that Captain Lucan was a little nervous, and had already rushed to the front to command the battle, it should be that this Titan Python had something on it that he wanted very much, but at this time, Dorga noticed Fang Linyan's arrival, walked over and whispered:

"Something. ”

Fang Linyan smiled bitterly:

"I'm sorry. “

Dolga frowned:

"What's wrong?"

Fang Linyan put the wounded down and said:

"I was carrying him back when I was about to get to the vehicle when I was suddenly attacked......."

Then he recounted the previous attacks.

Dorga frowned and examined the body of the wounded, then said:

"What about the snake?"

Fang Linyan shrugged and said:

"After the mutant python attacked, it has been biting him to death, and I used a shotgun to defend myself, so I didn't dare to shoot for fear of being injured by mistake. It then attacked me again, and was knocked over a few times by a shot from my head-on, and then fled. ”

What Fang Linyan said was flawless, and after hearing this, Dolga checked the body of the wounded again, and then nodded and said:

"You just stay here, don't act alone, I'll go up and help. ”

After about five minutes, the titan python finally let out a terrible wail, and then completely died, and collapsed to the ground.

When Fang Linyan stepped forward to take a look, he realized that after getting closer, this thing was really huge, even if it was dead and collapsed on the ground, it was a story high, and the corpse was like a mountain of flesh. Its scarred forelimb claws could easily hold a person to death even if they rested on the ground.

Captain Lucan had already deftly climbed up the body of the Titan Python by this time, and came directly to the top of its head, where Dolga had marked before.

As you can see, it is also covered in thick deformed scales, giving it an earthy yellow color, which is really a perfect mimicry, and if the Titan Python lies still, it looks like a cracked brown rock, enough to deceive anyone's eyes.

What Lucan wanted, it was directly above the python's head!

There was a small and peculiar mass there, which looked like a succulent plant growing close to the ground, and then it had produced a strawberry-like red fruit.

The leaves of the plant are short and thick like aloe vera, showing a jade transparent color, and the fruits are bright red, full and juicy at a glance, and even if you look at it twice, you can think of the sweet and sour feeling of saping in the mouth.

But if you look at it from below, you can see that the veins on the back of the leaf are actually bright red, and they are still pulsating slightly, and there is a bright red liquid flowing inside, just like the capillary network of the human body.

This is the secret of the Titan Python's symbiosis with the mutant venom python, and it is also the reason why Lucan changed his mind and ignored the mission and ordered to fire with all his might.

The thing that grows on the top of the Titan Python's head is an existence between animals and plants, called Blood Orchid, and its relationship with the Titan Python is symbiotic.

To put it simply, like leafcutter ants and aphids, leafcutter ants protect aphids and even provide food for them, and the feces pulled out by aphids are the best food for leafcutter ant larvae.

With its plump and beautiful appearance, the blood orchid can lure many hungry birds to be eaten by the Titan Python, and after it bears fruit, this fruit will directly secrete a special pheromone, which will have a strong temptation to those mutated creatures nearby! The Titan Python does not need to go out hunting at all, it only needs to migrate once regularly, and then wait for the prey to come to its mouth.

The root system of the blood orchid parasitic on the head of the Titan Python is directly rooted in the flesh and blood of the head of the Titan Python to absorb nutrients and then thrive.

The reason why the mutant python can coexist with the titan python here is because the attraction generated by the blood orchid makes the food very abundant.

A well-fed Titan Python will not come to devour its own kind, while a Mutant Python can hunt for excess food.

After the reconnaissance team originally sent by Yang Fan City came here, they encountered a mutated viper lured by the Blood Orchid Fruit.

This thing is also a tyrant in the desert, with two horns on its head, a body length of four or five meters, and it is highly poisonous, and under normal circumstances, there will be no other large creatures in the area where it lives, not to mention that this is still a mutated one-horned viper, and its habits are even more strange and ferocious.

Therefore, because of the limited conditions, the reconnaissance team did not dare to provoke this monster, and immediately flashed after recording the relevant information.

What they didn't know was that if they stayed for twenty more minutes, they would be able to witness the mutant viper being trampled to death by the Titan Python and then swallowed by Shi Shiran.......

As for the reason why Lucan was so excited when he saw Blood Orchid, it was because ordinary Blood Orchid was already a Class A product in the acquisition list of the Brotherhood of Steel Fist, and its value was amazing!

To put it intuitively, the benefits obtained after exchanging ordinary blood orchids have far exceeded the losses after the failure of this mission, not to mention that the blood orchid on the head of the Titan Python still has fruits at this time, so it is not good that it can be included in the ranks of the top acquisitions, and its benefits can be imagined!
