Chapter 44: The Snake and the Lizard (190 votes)
Even in the previous life, Wu Ming had only been active on the periphery of this dense forest area, and it was said that only some powerful teams of awakened people would enter the depths of the dense forest, but even so, people often died inside.
Danger and mystery are synonymous with this dense forest.
Unlike Lake of Death, the threshold of the Jungle is much lower, so there are already quite a few awakened people who have settled in the Lion City to hunt.
By the time the disaster struck, people had survived the panic, death, and despair of what to do, and now, both ordinary people and awakened people with powerful liliang are gradually adapting to the survival of the new shijie.
Monsters, creatures mutated by vitality, are no longer just a threat to people, they are also beginning to become prey to humans.
Card civilization and the civilization of the old era collided, merged and developed, bringing new rules and civilizations, human beings have begun to use the vitality, using cards, began to learn to make various cards, using various monsters to create powerful armor and weapons to compete for survival resources.
In fact, the establishment of the Lion City marks the beginning of a new era for mankind.
Along the way, Wu Ming met several teams of awakened people who had come to the jungle to hunt, they were all in groups of three or five, driving modified vehicles, wearing leather armor sewn from various monster skins, holding guns and long swords and axes that were full of bullets, like a mixture of modern and medieval.
Wu Ming looked at this scene, but the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said secretly, this is the new shijie he is familiar with.
The dense forest is very large, and there are many entrances, and at this stage, when the awakened people in the Lion City are still exploring which route and entrance are safer, Wu Ming has already found an entrance according to his memory.
It's a little more remote than the rest of the world, but it's relatively safe to get into the jungle from here. Thousands of hectares are not big, but they are the size of a large city, and the trees are dense enough to shade the sky, so if you are not familiar with the roads after entering. 100% will get lost, and if you are unlucky enough to break into the territory of a powerful monster, how can you still live?
Wu Ming was not worried about these problems, after he hid the car, he beckoned Eminem and took Big Tooth and Second Tooth into the dense forest together.
The trees in the forest are towering, the branches and foliage cover the sky, and the insects and birds are endless, and if you listen carefully, you can even hear the sound of gurgling water.
Who would have thought. This place that looks like a primeval forest was just an ordinary tourist area?
The changes that the vitality has brought to the whole shijie are too great, and many plants have mutated, if it is a vast primeval forest, such as the Amazon or Shennongjia, it must be even more terrifying at this time.
At this moment, the big tooth is in the front, cleaning some branches and leaves with bone spurs, and the second tooth is broken in the back. The two insects have a keen sense of hearing and smell, and are tall and well-suited for this kind of work.
As for Eminem, Wu Ming didn't let it fly. But because in the dense forest, there are also many flying birds of prey, and maybe there are second-level or even third-level flying monsters, in case Eminem has a mistake. Wu Ming was distressed to death.
Now Eminem has become a killer feature of Wu Ming, not only fast. The attack power is strong, and it has the ability to protect the secret art of body protection stone skin, and I believe that there is still a lot of room for growth in the future.
In this dense forest, Wu Ming remembered that in his previous life, he had only explored a very small number of areas of the dense forest, and this time, the target was the man-eating lizard.
This was good news for Wu Ming, and the man-eating lizards were actually nothing more than one of the insignificant monsters in this dense forest, and monsters more powerful than them abounded.
Although Wu Ming knew a small path, he also had to be careful not to make a mistake, so Wu Ming was extremely careful along the way.
At this time, the big tooth in front suddenly let out a low roar, and the next moment, Wu Ming also sensed the danger. After seeing a tree trunk in front of him, a green-spotted iron-headed snake with the thickness of a person's waist suddenly sprang out, and the moment the big snake appeared, it opened its big mouth and bit the big tooth in front.
Wu Ming knew this snake, although this kind of basilisk was still a first-level creature, but its strength was definitely the top of the first-level creatures, even Rafi was afraid that it was not an opponent. With a length of more than ten meters, hard scales and sharp fangs, it can easily twist a car into a pile of scrap metal with its body, and can even spit out poisonous mist to kill enemies.
In an instant, Wu Ming gave the order to the big tooth and the second tooth, but the speed of the green-spotted iron-headed snake was extremely fast, and as soon as the big tooth protected his body with his arm, he was bitten by the big snake on the shoulder, and at the same time, the big snake quickly wrapped the big tooth around.
"Damn it!" Wu Ming scolded, he knew that even with the current strength of Big Tooth, he would not be able to withstand the strangulation of the Green-spotted Ironhead Snake.
Eminem, who was on Wu Ming's shoulder, immediately turned into a silver lightning bolt and blinded one of the eyes of the green-spotted iron-headed snake.
Wu Ming also hurriedly stepped forward, pulled out the wasteland saber, and then stabbed the eleventh scale down the head of the green-spotted iron-headed snake.
The snakeskin of the Green-spotted Ironhead Snake is already comparable to that of an ironskin, but it is also difficult to resist under the hardness and sharpness of the Wasteland Saber.
The blade disappeared in an instant, and as soon as the green-spotted iron-headed snake raised its head, Erfang pounced and hugged the snake's head with both hands, obviously, this could prevent the basilisk from spewing poisonous mist.
This poisonous mist is extremely toxic, once it is spit out, people and animals will die within a radius of more than ten meters, fortunately, this is Wu Ming, if it is replaced by other unaware awakened people, it will definitely suffer heavy losses.
The green-spotted iron-headed snake struggled for a long time, and Wu Ming stabbed a few more times, and finally killed the big guy. The basilisk's meat, skin, and gall bladder can be fetched at a good price.
In particular, snake gallbladder contains extremely strong vitality, and the awakened can be eaten directly, which can enhance physical fitness and even improve anti-toxicity.
Wu Ming had eaten it in his previous life, but this thing is only the best effect when he eats it for the first time, and since he has encountered it now, Wu Ming will definitely not let it go. Soon, he skillfully sliced through the basilisk with the wasteland saber, reaching in and plucking off the snake gall.
Promoted to the second level of awakening, Wu Ming's sensitivity to vitality has also increased a lot. At this moment, the snake gall in his hand that was still stained with blood. Naturally, the bigger the snake's size, the bigger the snake's gall, but Wu Ming didn't need to eat it all, he only needed a green sarcoma in the snake gall.
That is the essence of the green spotted iron-headed snake gall bladder, Wu Ming had heard some people say in his previous life, this kind of grape-sized mixed element sarcoma is likely to be the legendary spirit of the 'Neidan', of course, this statement is too superstitious, but it is undeniable that after eating, it can improve people's physical fitness, clear ears and eyes, and resistance to toxins.
Wu Ming gouged open the snake gall bladder, and sure enough, he found that kind of green sarcoma, which was different from the smelly snake gall bladder, but this sarcoma exuded a fragrance, and Wu Ming opened his mouth and swallowed it.
In an instant, a strange flow of heat spread from his stomach, Wu Ming let out a sigh, and felt that his five senses were much clearer, and even some of the obstacles in the dense forest would no longer affect Wu Ming.
As for the rest of the snake gall, it was given to Eminem, and this guy didn't like the fishy smell, so he quickly ate it.
"Eat your fill, keep going!" Wu Ming patted Eminem's head and continued to move forward.
After walking slowly for more than twenty minutes, Wu Ming's eyes lit up when he saw a big tree in front of him that looked like a palm.
Walking in the dense forest, the most important thing is to find a suitable reference, this palm tree is what Wu Ming is looking for, he knows that if he walks south from this tree for a while, he can reach the area where the man-eating lizard is active.
There is no doubt that when it comes to the level of danger, the man-eating lizard is ranked above the steel-shelled crab, after all, the steel-shelled crab has a powerful defensive shell comparable to tank armor, but it is not as bloodthirsty and ferocious as the man-eating lizard, which is synonymous with terror and power.
Wu Ming left the big tooth and the second tooth more than ten meters away, while he himself quietly walked to the front, looking at the man-eating lizard lying on a rock in front of him through the gap in the leaves.
This is a well-deserved second-level creature, the speed and liliang far surpass the steel shell crab, more than five meters long, the sharp claws can easily tear through rocks, the bare fangs on the side of the mouth glow with an astonishing cold light, although the pieces of scale armor are not as hard as the steel shell crab, but softer, more suitable for making armor, the value is more than five times that of the shell of the steel shell.
Within a radius of twenty or thirty meters around, there were piles of bones of various animals, many of which were human bones, and I don't know how many layers they had, exuding a smell of decay and foul smell.
It is definitely not an easy task to hunt such a monster, and it usually requires at least five or more first-level awakened people, and it also requires three powerful creature minions or even two spell cards with powerful attack power to kill it.
Or, if you have a large caliber bullet made of a special energy metal, and there are more bullets, you can kill it by forming a powerful barrage, but in that case, the skin of the man-eating lizard will be full of holes, and its practical value will be greatly reduced.
Unlike steel-shelled crabs, there are almost no shortcuts to dealing with man-eating lizards, and the only thing Wu Ming knows is the key point of man-eating lizards.
The man-eating lizard's skin is very hard and tough, but fortunately, the wasteland saber can still pierce its skin.
At this moment, in Wu Ming's hand, he was holding the wasteland saber tightly, and the big tooth and the second tooth approached from the other two directions, and Eminem was on the side to respond.
As soon as Wu Ming approached, he was immediately discovered by this man-eating lizard.
The latter slammed up from the rock, his eyes fixed on those who dared to invade his territory, his claws scratching at the rocks, leaving several deep marks on the hard rocks, as if they were made of tofu.
Big Tooth and Two Teeth rushed forward first, Wu Ming knew that although the two insect people were extremely strong, they could never be the opponent of the man-eating lizard, even if they were blessed with the body protection stone skin, they would even be wiped out if they were not careful. And at the moment, the big teeth and the second teeth are Wu Ming's treasures, so naturally they are reluctant to lose anything, so the main force of this attack will be Wu Ming himself.
