With Zhang Ning's movements, a fishy smell spread out and overflowed, suddenly filling the entire platform.

659's brow furrowed, and his body involuntarily took a half-step back.

The pale green stream of data quickly swiped through the transparent mirror, reflecting in the deep eyes of the youth.

"Similar substances have been searched and relevant data are being presented"

After three seconds, several search results are displayed on the monocle.

"Adaptation Substance 1: Poisonous Snake Bladder, 97% Appearance Suitability, 99% Odor Suitability"

"Adaptation substance 2: Macromouth toad skin, 62% appearance suitability, 54% odor suitability"

"Adaptation Substance 3: Fifth-Order Scales, 32% Shape Fit, 94% Odor Fit"

After browsing the data displayed on the lenses, combined with Xiaoyi's previous narration, 659 suddenly understood.

Thinking about it, the black thing in Zhang Ning's hand should be the minced pieces of poisonous snake gall bladder after grinding.

looked at the other party's fingers stained with black snake gall foam, and then grinned and smeared it on his legs.

After applying the wound, he dipped a small piece and put it in his mouth.

When swallowing, the expression on Zhang Ning's face was wrinkled.

659 raised a frown and asked.

"This is the snake gall of a poisonous snake, right?"

"That's right, it can effectively alleviate the erosion of toxins, but it's a pity, the fist-sized snake gall bladder is only used so much, if I am not injured, this snake gall can be exchanged for a lot of credits......"

Zhang Ning's face was smiling, and his optimistic attitude had not changed despite the harsh environment he was in now.

659 is very clear that according to the data in the lens, in order to cure the snake venom of the poisonous snake, it is necessary to swallow the mutant snakeberry.

However, judging from the current situation, it is difficult to get out, so let's go back a little bit for the mutant snakeberry.

Silently watching Zhang Ning finish taking the medicine, 659's gaze turned into the distance again.

"Although I haven't seen the general-level zombie in your mouth, the strange appearance in the snake's nest right now can also explain some problems, what are you going to do next? Are you just waiting to die on this water tower? ”

In fact, 659 would ask like this, just to get more information from Zhang Ning's mouth.

After all, he had even seen the Shadow Worm with an Omega-level life energy level, and he really didn't have much fear of a general-level zombie with only a dozen followers.

With such a small group of corpses, it is estimated that the level of general-level zombies will not exceed the third order.

With 659's experience, a ball of lightning is enough to solve the problem.

I really can't solve it, so let's do the second shot!

After all, the third-order general level that has not become the climate may not be as threatening as the two-headed third-order horse level.

In the face of 659's inquiry, Zhang Ning not only did not get angry, but a touch of mystery appeared on his face.

I saw that he carefully put away half a pack of snake gall bladder foam, and said confidently.

"It is impossible to wait for death, and it is impossible to wait for death in this life~"

"I'm waiting for an opportunity, a chance to get out of the surveillance of general-level zombies!"

"A chance to get out of the surveillance of general-level zombies?"

659's curiosity was aroused.

After all, according to Zhang Ning, if they are really targeted by general-level zombies, unless they deal with each other, it is usually difficult to run away.

Because even if they escape in a physical sense, it is difficult for them to guarantee that they will not be tracked by general-level zombies.

If the monster discovered the entrance to the dungeon, not only would the two of them not survive, but they would also have to bear the charge of destroying the last flame of humanity before they died.

"That's right, if I can, I'd like to bring back little Ada's body as well......"

The smile on Zhang Ning's face froze suddenly, and his eyes showed irrepressible sadness.

"Oh? Is it the first-order ability that came out with you? ”

"That's right, a very kind young man, only twenty-four years old...... When the catastrophe broke out, I was only this age, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed......"

Feeling the ruthlessness of the passage of time, Zhang Ning began to tie the bandages on his legs.

As he moved, the rancid stench that permeated the air slowly faded.

"Tell me more about your plans."

659's gaze looked into the distance again, and by the scarlet moonlight, he seemed to be able to see a few more shadows in the grove to the east.

"First of all, you have to know that there are snakes in the snake's nest, right?"

As he spoke, Zhang Ning's hands kept moving, carefully bandaging the wound on his leg.

Even though the temperature around him had dropped below zero, his face didn't show much discomfort.

"That's right, but when I came, I only saw traces of snakes, and I didn't encounter a single mutant snake."

659 replied indifferently, without any intention of urging the other party.

After all, in his eyes, the general-level zombies who prevented Zhang Ning from returning to the dungeon were not a threat at all.

In other words, 659 is a bit inflated at the moment.

"Now that the temperature is so low, and snakes are cold-blooded animals, it's normal to not see them."

After tying the bandages on his legs, Zhang Ning put his hands in front of his mouth, took a breath of hot air, and then rubbed vigorously.

"Those mutated creatures are hiding in their nests, going into semi-dormant state, and will not come out again until the night passes and the temperature rises......"

As Zhang Ning said, the night in the Red Moon World was very long, with six hundred and fifty standard hours.

Towards midnight, the temperature can be incredibly low.

For those mutant snakes, it was equivalent to a short winter.

But what is the connection between the semi-dormant mutant snake and the general-level zombies blocked in the grove?

Could it be that general-level zombies will also fall into dormancy after the temperature drops to a certain level like these mutant beasts?

659 recalled the information about the zombies in his head, but did not find any information related to 'hibernation'.

And Zhang Ning didn't know the thinking storm in 659's mind, and still explained at his own pace.

"Originally, Little Ada and I had already hunted four black scales at dusk and were ready to return to the dungeon."

"But little Ada said he was getting married and needed a lot of credit......"

Hearing this, 659's eyebrows furrowed.

"So you took the risk of staying in the snake's lair for a little longer?"

"That's right." Zhang Ning nodded, and at the same time sighed into his hand.

"It's because I stayed for a while that little Ada died......"

659 tried to keep up with Zhang Ning's train of thought, but the other party kept laying the groundwork and did not highlight the key and focus of the incident.

“…… As the night approaches, the temperature drops, and combined with your previous description, the activity of the snakes should be reduced, could it be that your companion was killed by a general-level zombie? ”

"No, little Ada was bitten on the calf by a poisonous worm and dragged to the ground...... Zhang Ning replied, a touch of sadness crossed his brown eyes.

"Uh...... Well, can you get to the point......"

659 is a little impatient, although he is not in a hurry to leave, it does not mean that he likes the other party's procrastinating narrative.

However, Zhang Ning did not cooperate with him, hastily put away the sadness on his face, and continued.

"After little Ada was dragged away, in order to save him, I also followed him into the ground......"

Speaking of this, Zhang Ning paused, and suddenly sold it cheaply.

"Do you know what I saw in there?"

"What?" A hint of helplessness flashed across 659's face.

"A royal mutant creature in the metamorphosis period-Cockscomb Iron-headed Viper!"

“？”

At 659, he was still stunned, and a string of pale green characters crossed the mirror in front of his right eye.

"Suitable organisms have been searched and relevant data are being presented"

[Creature Serial Number: 748]

"Biocode: Cockscomb Viper"

"Description: Viper mutant, its essence is a pure virional organism, a carnivorous reptile, with a cockscomb sarcoidoma on the top of its head, a grayish-black snake head, mobile and extremely fast, a mature cockscomb with a body length of up to three meters, and its main attack method is ambush."

"Warning: The Cockscomb Viper moves at an alarming speed, don't be fooled by its small size! Some cockscomb vipers gain the ability to mimic their scales after three molts, which makes them even more powerful in ambushing."

"Warning: The cockscomb is a highly venomous mutant snake, and no corresponding antidote has been found, if it is bitten, the injured organ should be removed as soon as possible to stop the spread of the toxin!"

"Note: After molting five times, there is a very small chance that such creatures will become a royal branch."

"After completing the metamorphosis, the snake king will increase slightly in size, and two pairs of membranous wings will be born on its back, and after the seventh molt, it will have the ability to fly."

What Zhang Ning said later, 659 didn't hear clearly, because his attention was already completely focused on the information.

"Invincible Begins with Sacrificing to the Ancestors"

"It's a royal branch again, I should say that this timeline is worthy of the timeline that has come to an end, it's really dangerous enough......"

Silently complained in his heart, 659 refocused his attention on Zhang Ning's face.

At this moment, a variant of his great-grandfather, is describing the appearance of the cockscomb and the iron-headed viper.

"Good fellow, do you know how big that thing is? It's more than ten meters, and my body is as thick as my waist......"

Probably guessing Zhang Ning's plan, 659 waved his hand and forcibly interrupted a little helplessly.

"So your plan isn't to light a fire between the Snake King and the General, right? And then take advantage of the two stalemates, and you slipped away by yourself? ”

“…… Uh, yes! You know me, young man......"

Zhang Ning scratched his messy hair and said with a look of surprise.

"Hehe, you don't look at the relationship between the two of us......" 659 silently spit out the second groove in his heart.

However, although he guessed Zhang Ning's plan, he didn't know how the other party planned to implement it.

So after a pause, he asked again.

"What are you going to do? Luring the snake out of the hole? Or lure corpses into town? ”

Hearing 659's inquiry, a sly smile appeared on Zhang Ning's face, and he said mysteriously.

"Remember when I first said, wait for the right time, right?"

……
