Ark Simulator, Don't I Have No Physical Form?

"How impatient! Is this how everyone in the rainforest is?"

"That's just how I am." The Eunectes glanced at Su Rui and then directly covered Su Rui's mouth.

Volume 8, Chapter 467: Beautiful Flying Machines

After their tandem mountain climbing session, neither Su Rui nor Eunectes really wanted to get out of bed, so Su Rui took out her game console and wasted a lot of time with Eunectes before finally getting up.

When Su Rui changed into new clothes and walked out of the room with the Eunectes, her subordinates' doubts were dispelled.

So that's what happened. No wonder the Eunectes was so agitated when disturbed.

However, despite having a sense of sudden realization, the Eunectes's subordinates still had some questions, such as:

"Where did the leader get this Feline boy? He's so handsome, I want to steal one too."

"Are we from our rainforest? There's no reason I wouldn't recognize someone so beautiful!"

"Want it? If you do, you can just go fight the leader and take him away."

"... If you want to get beaten up, don't call me."

Eunectes listened to her subordinates' conversation and looked at the dialogues that Su Rui had marked in her field of vision, a blush crept onto her cheeks.

However, the Eunectes didn't forget what she had to do. She cleared her throat and said to her subordinates:

"Look carefully, everyone! This is my Zumama's person! Anyone who dares to touch her, I'll hang her up and whip her, turn her into a meat patty with my Big Ugly, do you hear me?!"

The Eunectes's threat did not elicit fear or worry; instead, its minions below cheered excitedly, as if they were being praised.

Su Rui leaned against the railing next to the Eunectes, its long, thick tail swaying gently behind it.

With some effort, Su Rui managed to catch the tail that kept unintentionally slipping away from his hand. He reached out and stroked the cool, smooth scales on his tail.

Although it's not quite the same as a fluffy, warm tail, a snake's tail is still a novel and wonderful experience.

With this in mind, Su Rui ignored the Eunectes's reprimand to its subordinates and rubbed his cold scales.

The Eunectes was intently directing its men beside Su Rui, worried that Su Rui might be in danger, when it noticed that its men didn't seem to be paying much attention.

So the Eunectes followed their gaze, turned its head, and saw its own beautiful white-haired, red-eyed boy rubbing its tail against its adorable cheek.

"... Su Rui? What are you doing?" The Eunectes's cheeks flushed slightly at Su Rui's actions. Although Su Rui hadn't done anything wrong, the Eunectes felt tempted by Su Rui behavior.

"What's wrong? I was playing with my tail."

Su Rui snapped out of his reverie, engrossed in playing with his tail, and looked at the Eunectes, but the Eunectes that had interrupted him stammered and couldn't quite get a word out.

"..." Su Rui glanced at the Eunectes, then at his men, coughed lightly, and waved to his subordinates:

"Alright, that concludes today's speech. Go back and do your own things!"

Su Rui's words elicited a cheer, but the people didn't disperse quickly; instead, they seemed to be watching this scene intentionally or unintentionally.

Seeing his subordinates gradually disperse, Su Rui turned his gaze back to the still-dazed Eunectes, waving his hand in front of her eyes. "What are you daydreaming about?"

Then the Eunectes grabbed Su Rui's wrist and stared intently at him.

"You don't want to play another round with me here, do you?"

Su Rui felt the strength of the Eunectes gripping his wrist, as if it were afraid he would escape.

"There are a lot of people here, aren't you afraid of being stared at?"

"Of course I wouldn't do that."

The Eunectes gave Su Rui a disapproving look, and then said:

"I'm just thinking about what to do next."

"Of course we'll wait. We'll wait for Gavial and the Doctor to arrive, participate in the festival, and then, after we've displayed our might, we'll join Rhodes Island and leave, letting them spend a few more months preparing for the festival and electing the chieftain."

"No way." The Eunectes rolled its eyes, wrapped its thick, long tail around Su Rui's waist, and pulled Su Rui along for a stroll around the camp:

"Even if we leave directly, since the stage has already been set up, they can hold the next election ceremony for the Great Chief on the same day."

"So, the most important part of the so-called festival is just the stage you spent months setting up, right?"

Su Rui winked at the Eunectes with a hint of mockery, which earned Eunectes a resentful tightening of its tail around his waist.

"That's only part of the reason... I admit that the efficiency in the rainforest isn't very high, but another reason is that we need to let all the tribes know when the festival starts so they can make time to participate."

"Yes, yes, don't be angry, I didn't mean to."

Su Rui reached out and patted the Eunectes's shoulder, then pressed herself against Eunectes from behind, resting her chin on its shoulder.

"Oh right, Rhodes Island is sending people, should we go see them? Also, I forgot to introduce you, Doctor is my mom, so be nice to her."

"Really?" The Eunectes was stunned for a moment, looking at Su Rui nervously. "Is this okay?"

"What are you worried about? Don't worry, my mom has seen a lot, she won't make things difficult for you."

Su Rui squeezed Vulpisfoglia's shoulder and urged, "Alright, do you want to go take a look? Their aircraft is coming soon, or we won't be able to see it anymore."

"Of course we'll go." The Eunectes asked, puzzled, as it followed the direction marked by Su Rui in its field of vision.

"But why the rush? Aren't they coming here? They won't be leaving so soon."

"But some scenery, once missed, will never be seen again."

A mischievous smile crept onto Su Rui's lips as she nudged the Eunectes: "Alright, we should get going. Hurry up, or we'll miss it."

The Eunectes nodded in confusion. Although she didn't know what scenery Su Rui was talking about, she quickened her pace. In fact, the Eunectes felt nervous under Su Rui's urging and also felt that Su Rui's movements were a bit slow, so she simply used her tail to wrap around Su Rui's waist and picked Su Rui up, and started running through the rainforest.

Soon, Su Rui and the Eunectes arrived at a high point in the rainforest, thanks to the Eunectes's running. The Eunectes could also see the aircraft gradually approaching, thanks to the marker Su Rui had placed in its field of vision.

Moreover, since they were already close to their destination, Rhodes Island's aircraft were not very high above the ground, allowing the Eunectes to see the flying object very clearly and to exclaim in amazement:

"What a beautiful aircraft!"

"Hmm, it really is beautiful."

Su Rui shrugged. "It'll be even prettier later."

Volume 8, Chapter 468: Beautiful Fireworks

The Eunectes looked at Su Rui with some confusion, but after Su Rui finished speaking, she reached out and cupped the Eunectes's cheeks, making her turn her head to look at the sky.

"Don't look at me, look at the sky, it's about to begin."

As soon as Su Rui finished speaking, the Eunectes saw a rocket suddenly launch from somewhere on the ground. The Eunectes instinctively wanted to shout a warning, but given the distance and the timing, it was too late.

So she watched as the rocket traced a swift trajectory and struck the Rhodes Island aircraft.

As the aircraft was attacked, it lost its balance and crashed towards the ground.

Fortunately, the pilot's flying skills seemed to be decent enough, at least preventing the aircraft from crashing in a particularly dangerous manner, resulting in a relatively safe emergency landing.

The Eunectes hugged Su Rui tightly with some concern. "Will they be alright?"

"Don't worry, of course not. Didn't you see? People jumped off the plane before it crashed."

"Of course I saw it. At this height, a fall shouldn't be a big problem." The Eunectes nodded. "But I'm worried about whether the aircraft will be damaged."

"No, that aircraft is of good quality. At most, it just crashed because it was unstable."

Su Rui rolled her eyes and took the Eunectes's hand:

"Let's go, it's time to welcome the Doctor and the others."

"Hmm." The Eunectes had no objection to this matter and followed behind Su Rui toward the direction where the spacecraft had crashed.

Su Rui marked the destination directly at the crash site of the spacecraft, because that was also the Doctor's destination.

However, upon arrival, the Eunectes discovered that the aircraft was surrounded, and it appeared that the attackers were her subordinates.

"Let's go stop them."

After all, it was Rhodes Island's property. Su Rui came from Rhodes Island, and the Doctor of Rhodes Island was Su Rui's mother. In effect, the Eunectes herself was also a member of Rhodes Island, so her subconscious instinct was to stop it.

But Su Rui wrapped her tail around the Eunectes's waist. "Don't go, there's no rush."

"But it seems the aircraft's engines are going to be removed." The Eunectes looked at Su Rui with some doubt. "Aren't you worried?"

"It's not safe for the aircraft to stay here right now, so let's take the engine back and consider it as temporarily safekeeping for Rhodes Island."

Suri winked and smiled at the anaconda, but the anaconda was thinking more deeply, its eyes lighting up:

"So, we can temporarily borrow the aircraft's engine?!"

"What do you want to do? If you ask me, there's no need. The Big Ugly's performance is already excellent. Adding a flight engine will only increase its maneuverability at most."

But the Eunectes was adamant. "My men have already brought the engine back. Wouldn't we be letting them down if we didn't use it?"

"Okay, I understand."

Su Rui nodded, not dwelling on it too much. "Anyway, you're in charge of disassembling and assembling the engine, I just need to give instructions."

The Eunectes nodded, not finding it troublesome at all. "Of course, leave it to me, I'll take care of everything."

As they spoke, the Eunectes and Su Rui had already arrived not far from the aircraft. However, in order not to disturb what was about to happen, Su Rui wrapped her snake tail around the Eunectes's neck, then covered her mouth, and whispered:

"Don't speak. If they can take the engine away, we'll use it; otherwise, you'll just have to watch."

The Eunectes nodded. Although Su Rui had stuffed her mouth with her tail, it didn't stop her from communicating with Su Rui in her mind:

'Are we just going to watch and do nothing?'

"Otherwise, which side are you going to support? One is my mother, the other is your subordinate. How would you choose?"

"Can't we ask Rhodes Island to lend us the aircraft's engine?" the Eunectes asked somewhat naively.

Su Rui rolled her eyes, annoyed. "My mom spoils me, but she doesn't usually agree to these kinds of requests easily. After all, she needs the engine to get back, and she also needs to consider the trust of her subordinates. She won't just agree to anything. You should be grateful you can borrow it temporarily without getting into trouble."

"Oh." The Eunectes nodded regretfully, looking at its subordinates who had surrounded the aircraft, and silently cheered them on.

Rhodes Island had too few people, only four in total, with Gavial and Ceobe being the only ones capable of fighting. So, although they weren't at a disadvantage once the battle started, they couldn't afford to worry about that.

After they defeated all of the Eunectes's minions surrounding the aircraft, Gavial looked at them with suspicion and asked:

"How come you guys have such good equipment? What happened while I was away?"

"Gavial? You're back? Oh, we were all brought here by the Eunectes chieftain. She led us to mine veins, smelt steel, forge weapons, and we also... sob sob."

The Crocodile People tried to say something more, but someone next to him covered his mouth.

"So it was Eunectes? That makes sense, she's always loved tinkering with these things since she was little."

The Eunectes nodded, said nothing more, and waved to its Eunectes: "You can go now."

"Oh, goodbye Gavial."

After watching the Eunectes's men leave, Gavial and the others woke up the unconscious pilot.

Then, after inspecting the aircraft, the pilot screamed, "The aircraft's engines are gone?!"

"Huh? The engine? Could it be that the Eunectes's men took the engine away? That makes perfect sense. The Eunectes likes machinery, so it's only natural that her men would help collect machinery."

Gavial nodded and patted the driver on the shoulder. "Don't worry, I know the Eunectes well. We can just take the engine back."

The Doctor next to him asked with some confusion, "Since you're so familiar with the Eunectes, why don't you just have her return it to us?"

"I'm afraid that won't work. Given the Eunectes's personality, she'll only give it back to us after we've fought her."

Gavial shrugged, Ceobe next to him twitched his cute little nose and turned to look in Su Rui's direction:

There's someone there!

Ceobe's words immediately caught the attention of the Doctor and Gavial. Turning their heads, they saw the Eunectes and Su Rui entwined with each other by their tails.

Gavial's eyes lit up. "Eunectes? What are you doing here? Perfect, have your men return the items!"

As the Eunectes pondered how to answer, Su Rui reached out and patted her. "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and run, or we'll get caught."

"Hmm." The Eunectes glanced at Gavial, then turned and ran with Su Rui.

Volume 8, Chapter 469: Hello, I'm off now.

"Run faster! Run faster! Gavial is catching up!"

With the Eunectes carrying her on its shoulder, Su Rui watched Gavial rushing towards them from behind, and couldn't help but let out a wild laugh as she urged the Eunectes on.

"Can't you make her run a little slower? I'm carrying you while I run!"
