Seeing through the Aurora Animal Assistance Society's tactical objective

The identification device Yu Yuan had taken from that thug earlier seemed to have worked.

All the mutated animals ignored him.

If he had not still needed to complete the Regional Event mission, he would have loved to find somewhere quiet to collect spirituality.

Then, two hundred meters away, he saw a giant king cobra rear up and open its jaws.

Pale yellow venom sprayed toward the thugs from the Iron Anchor Shipping Company.

After landing on the ground, combat vehicles, and human bodies, the venom rapidly evaporated into a mist that shrouded the surrounding area.

Its color gradually turned a vivid yellow.

Every thug who inhaled the mist developed a blackish-blue complexion, blood flowing from the corners of their eyes, their ear canals, their nostrils, and the corners of their mouths.

Within moments, they died from the deadly poison.

Bullets struck the king cobra's scales with a metallic clatter. This was clearly its special ability—Scale Armorization. Its scales were already no weaker than military-grade alloy steel plates.

Watching from a distance, Yu Yuan immediately recognized that the king cobra's markings were identical to those of the snake in Nightingale's footage. The answer was obvious.

Lilith had already arrived.

Only now, as he faced the giant snake in person, did Yu Yuan realize how much Qingqing's earlier description had underestimated it.

How was this snake only twenty or thirty meters long? It was at least thirty or forty meters long. Even in Journey to the West, it would have qualified as a python demon.

Yu Yuan immediately took a detour. Relying on the identification system, he passed through the cordon of mutated animals and ran toward the Aquarium.

"Everyone, keep your identification devices on you. If the test subjects target you, you'll have no one to blame but yourselves."
