Xu Xin and the Giant Snake in the Wilderness, Part One
Facing the wilderness, Xu Xin and her companions felt a mix of fear and excitement; after all, adventure brings a sense of physical thrill.
This stimulation can activate some bodily functions.
However, apart from Xu Xin, Zhen Nan and Zhang Yue had never experienced the dangers of the wilderness, so they had no idea that the wilderness was far more terrifying than they had guessed.
Only someone like Xu Xin, who had truly experienced and witnessed the Moth Squad Moth Squad the monster at the cost of several lives, and who, along with her mentor and classmates, were left without any martial arts protection and were facing the monster's indiscriminate slaughter, was saved by Qian Ye's intervention.
The wilderness may be terrifying, but frankly, it's because those who venture into it lack the necessary strength.
Faced with absolute power, no matter how many monsters come, or how powerful they are, they can still fight their way out and leave safely.
For example, in the original novel of Swallowed Star, after Luo Feng and Hong became invincible on Earth, Certain Kill any King Level, S-level, or SS-level monster in a matter of seconds.
Even the two Emperor Level monsters in the sea were no match for Luo Feng.
Kill him in a second.
Qian Ye is even more impressive; when he enters the wilderness, especially a small wilderness like this, he's practically unstoppable.
Killing from east to west, from west to north, from north to south—it's all child's play.
Monsters are nothing but ants in the face of a powerful figure like him, or even less than ants.
After all, being surrounded by a swarm of ants is a huge problem if they crawl all over you and bite you everywhere. ✊👊 ♟🐳
Soon, the three of them followed Qian Ye to an abandoned high-rise building.
Before the end times, this building was a luxurious office building with dozens of floors.
Now, it's covered in plants and has become home to some monsters.
When Zhen Nan reached the ground floor, she looked up at the thirty-something-story office building and thought, "I never imagined that what used to be a corner of a major city, a bustling district, would now be a desolate wasteland, with plants climbing all over the office buildings."
Hearing her words, Zhang Yue also looked up and said, "Yes, everything changed after the apocalypse."
"Where there are no humans living or protecting, everything reverts to its primitive state; under the rule of monsters, everything becomes a wasteland."
"Fortunately, the strength of martial artists allows them to protect some of humanity and establish bases; otherwise, everything would be a wasteland like this."
Xu Xin stepped forward and took Qian Ye's hand, smiling slightly at him, "Brother Ye, I remember when I first came to the wilderness with my mentor and classmates under the protection of the Moth Squad, I met you on the road. In the blink of an eye, several years have passed, and I've already graduated from university. Time really flies."
Qian Ye patted her head. "Yeah, just like what happened yesterday."
Suddenly, a large, fiery red snake emerged from behind the building, interrupting their conversation.
This snake, over 500 meters long, coiled itself Entanglement the building and stretched its head out, startling Zhang Yue, Zhen Nan, Xu Xin, and the others, who all moved closer to Qian Ye. 💋♩ 💣👍
The three of them were already afraid of snakes, and the fact that a giant snake several hundred meters long was appearing before them made it even more terrifying.
It's a creature that could swallow a person whole in one gulp.
However, with Qian Ye around, dealing with a giant snake like this is no problem at all.
A protective barrier was immediately erected, shielding the three of them.
Bang bang bang~
The snake stared at the people inside the barrier, its eyes bloodshot, its forked tongue flicking out, fiercely ramming the barrier with its sturdy skull.
The barrier Qian Ye created was a see-through barrier, allowing people to see inside from the outside, which is why Orochi had a target to follow.
If it's an invisible barrier, a completely shielding barrier, then the giant snake will lose its target and won't be able to detect people, scents, or heat sensors, so naturally it won't find a target to attack.
Qian Ye did this not out of boredom, but with a specific purpose.
After all, the purpose of bringing Xu Xin and the others out was to train them, so naturally the three of them needed to witness the ferocity of the monsters; otherwise, how would they fight monsters in the future?
They might run away or hide when they see a monster, lacking the courage to face it at all.
If they dare not fight monsters, then who would dare to team up with such a warrior? Which team member would dare to entrust their back to such an unreliable teammate?
So Qian Ye's first lesson with them in the wilderness was to teach them to bravely face the monsters.
No matter how terrible they are, we must face them.
This is the path that one must face and walk to become a martial artist.
If they don't dare to take the first step, then the three of them are not qualified to become martial artists.
Qian Ye glanced at the three of them, finally fixing his gaze on Xu Xin. Having already experienced the dangers of the wilderness once, he decided to send Xu Xin to face the giant snake first.
"Xu Xin, go to the front of the barrier and face the giant snake directly?" Qian Ye looked at Xu Xin and expressed his opinion.
Xu Xin's body trembled slightly. She was usually terrified of even small snakes, let alone such a large one.
So I'm still hesitating.
"Brother Ye, I've been afraid of snakes since I was a child, can I not go?" Xu Xin pleaded.
Qian Ye shook his head.
Zhen Nan and Zhang Yue were both surprised.
They were also afraid of snakes, but small snakes were okay. However, the snake in front of them was hundreds of meters long. Seeing its lantern-like eyes and fierce appearance, their legs went weak with fear.
When it opened its mouth again, the long, blood-red tongue was even more terrifying.
That wasn't the scariest part; the scariest part was its sharp, white teeth, which sent chills down their spines.
"Xu Xin, with your current strength, do you think you have the right to choose the monsters in this wilderness? It's not that the monsters choose you. You have to face whatever monster you encounter, so this is it; you have no choice."
"Besides, I'm having you face it inside the barrier, not Mianmian it, so you'll be fine. Don't be afraid, go on!" Qian Ye grabbed Xu Xin's shoulders from behind and pushed her forward.
Seeing that things had already come to this point, Xu Xin had no choice but to move forward.
She was most afraid that Qian Ye would get angry, and she was also afraid that he would just abandon her in the wilderness.
At that point, it's possible that we'll face not just one large snake, but ten or even a hundred.
Moreover, it's a one-on-one fight, and you might even lose your life here.
The thought terrified him, so he drew the long sword from his back and approached the giant serpent step by step. As long as he didn't step out of the barrier, even if he got close to it, it was actually like being in two different worlds, so it didn't matter.
Qian Ye smiled with satisfaction when he saw that Xu Xin had finally mustered the courage to step forward.
Zhang Yue was also worried for her; even though she wasn't doing it herself, she was just as nervous as if she were.
Then he thought that after Xu Xin, it would be his turn, so he kept his eyes fixed on Xu Xin and the giant snake, observing the situation so he could decide how to face the giant snake later.
Zhen Nan wasn't much better. At first, she just thought that martial artists were noble and that becoming a martial artist was a very honorable thing, so she wanted to become a martial artist from a young age.
But when she and Qian Ye and the others came to the wilderness to face the monsters, they realized that martial artists were not as glamorous as they appeared on the surface.
At least I'm not a newbie like Zhang Yue and Xu Xin right now.
