Chapter 359: Life and Death in an Instant
"Lads, take this fat prey"
Before Durotan could finish his sentence, his frostwolf companion Snowfoot suddenly let out a low roar, and Durotan immediately heard the meaning of a warning.
I saw that on the ground on the left side of Durotan, a sharp object broke through the ground and shot straight at Durotan's neck.
Durotan saw clearly that it was attacking him, it was a small diamond-shaped snake head, and before his brain realized that it was a threat, his body had already reflexively acted.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment, Durotan's armor-covered palm lifted upward, trying to stop the snakehead's biting attack, and the distance between the two was getting closer and closer, and this instantaneous life-and-death battle was about to be decided.
Durotan's raised hand defense was still slow after all, and the diamond-shaped snake head that was about to bite him on the neck without armor protection was about to bite him, and the diamond-shaped shape of this snake head was obviously a characteristic of venomous snakes.
At this line between life and death, Durontan's body seemed to have turned on a magical switch, and his body was like having its own consciousness, instinctively making the best move that could save his life.
I saw that Durotan's head was biased and his mouth was open, so he bit the diamond-shaped snake's head fiercely, and directly bit the snake's open fanged snake mouth, and closed its mouth, his front teeth clamped the snake's head, and his palm finally grabbed the snake's body.
At this time, the frost wolf Snow Foot on the side also rushed over, wanting to rescue his master, Du Longtan immediately pulled his hands and straightened a section of the snake's body, creating the best bite conditions for Snow Foot, and Snow Foot bit off the body of the poisonous snake with a sharp bite.
Durotan immediately relented, grabbed the body of the viper, and shook it, and shook the severed snake like a whip, and whipped it on the hard stone three times in succession, before he threw the viper on the ground.
At this time, the poisonous snake was obviously dead, but Durotan was not at ease, he used the bite of the frost wolf to shovel up some soil, and buried the mutilated poisonous snake tightly, so that he was relieved.
After this relaxation, Durotan immediately breathed heavily, and his whole body was sweaty with cold sweat almost instantly, and this instantaneous experience of life and death squeezed all his energy out of it in an instant.
However, Durotan suddenly came back to his senses, as if he remembered something, and hurriedly spat on it, for fear that he had swallowed the venom of the viper.
He poured himself a bottle of antidote, and after waiting for a while to make sure he was okay, he was really relieved.
Durotan pulled out the body of the poisonous snake from the ground with some fear, and was surprised to find that the giant python he killed had a head on both the head and the tail, but on one side was the head of a giant python and on the other side was the head of a poisonous snake.
Durotan shuddered again, and sighed in horror: "it! It's good that the two heads of this two-headed basilisk didn't attack at the same time before, otherwise I wouldn't have escaped anything." ”
"Chief, are you alright?" the retreating frostwolf warriors returned to their chief's side, looking at Durotan's pale face with some concern.
Durotan, on the other hand, regained his vitality after a moment's pause, but he didn't dare to hold it anymore, and he let his warriors go hand in hand with himself and continue to explore the island.
Durotan found that the ecology of this island is very rich, which proves that there must be a water source on this island, but he also found that the wildlife on this island is a little abnormal, they are all deformed, what two-headed snakes, giant beetles, scaly orangutans, anyway, how strange they come.
This discovery unsettled Durotan, who decided to leave the island as soon as the fleet had replenished its fleet with fresh water.
The goblin captain on the side suddenly spoke, "King Dulongtan, I think I've found a trace of a water source. ”
"Oh?" Durotan listened to the goblin's words, and felt very curious, every orc is an excellent master of survival in the wild, and he has not found any signs of water sources, which makes him very admired and hoped for the goblin's ability to survive in the wild.
The goblin seemed to see Durotan's thoughts, and beckoned Durotan to come to his place.
"King Durotan, you stand with me and look in that direction. ”
Durontan walked over and looked in the direction the goblin pointed, and he immediately saw something unusual, there was an open area in the dense jungle, and it felt like a forest path.
"Lord Dulongtan, this should be a dry creek bed, and if we follow along, there is a good chance that we can find a source of water. ”
Durotan immediately spoke, "Well, Captain Vicky, your knowledge of jungle survival is very admirable, and if I could, I would like to take the time to learn it." ”
The sturdy goblin immediately laughed and replied, "If you want to learn, I'd love to teach you, of course..."
Durotan looked at it and shook his head with a smile, estimating in his heart that the tuition fee would not be cheap.
In the end, the group did not find a water source, at least not today, when it was not yet dark, but the time had entered the afternoon.
In the jungle, the night fell so fast that it was almost impossible to react, so Durotan calculated the time and prepared to take the people back, after all, no one wanted to spend a night in a strange and dangerous jungle.
Back on the ship, the orcs who stayed behind had already prepared a sumptuous dinner to entertain their hard-working warriors, and it felt like welcoming the return of a hunting party in the Draenor clan.
And the banquet on the sea has a unique flavor, giving people a sense of freedom and ease of men on the sea.
Durotan ate a piece of spiced grilled snake steak and squinted his eyes with a smile: "Meat! delicious meat!
Draka on the side looked at his partner with a smile and handed him a glass of coconut juice.
Durotan drank it all, and then felt a pang of guilt in his heart, and he handed the delicious piece of meat to Draka with a flattering expression on his face.
"Draka, I'm full, you have to feed the child, you have to make up for it. ”
Draka suddenly laughed, punched Durotan, and scolded with a smile: "You are full of fart, and you don't find a better reason to deceive people." ”
That being said, Draka didn't refuse Durontan's kindness either, she did need nutrition for the sake of their children.
Draka picked up the piece of meat and nibbled on it, reminiscent of their days in Draenor, when she was pregnant and they shared the same food.
At this time, Durotan recalled the same scene, and he said to himself in his heart: "As long as I can make them happy, no matter how hard and tired and dangerous it is, I can support it." ”
