Chapter 28 Black Snake
"Sure enough, it appeared before the death deadline I expected. Haha... you are really reliable." The consultant saw the three of Mishui appearing in the huge room and said something that sounded like praise.
"When you are resting here, we are desperately dealing with various traps and rushing here." The gunsmith complained. He and Suyside looked quite embarrassed. After leaving the core room, they experienced three trap rooms with high defense levels in a row. The danger level was similar to that of the flea guard. It was indeed difficult to solve it calmly when time was tight.
Winesa looked a little disappointed. The consultant was about to say something important, but was interrupted because the reinforcements arrived.
However, except for the consultant, the other three did not notice the slight changes on Winesa's face. At this moment, Dark Water had already walked to the corner of the huge room alone, ready to press the next teleportation talisman.
"Before escaping, there is not much time to stop and talk," said Dark Water. "When the temperature drops below zero, your body will have various conditions due to the cold. To escape, you have to go through seven rooms. I suggest you focus on your energy and deal with teleportation and traps."
…………
"Run! Have you heard it? Don't worry about me! Get out quickly and escape outside! The farther you run, the better! Now!" Earl Boger shouted at the entrance above the giant chamber at the top of his lungs.
The two followers who were left above the passage did not know the situation below, but when they heard the Count in the ruins give orders with a nearly desperate and pleading roar, they naturally understood that this was not a joke. The two hesitated for a moment, communicated for a few words, and decided to follow the Count's instructions. They picked up the torch, turned their heads and ran and ran out toward the passage.
It was expected that the Count would definitely do such a move once it was teleported to this huge room at the entrance.
After each teleportation, before the green light completely faded, the count couldn't wait to endure the dazzling light, opened his eyes a crack, and observed the surrounding situation, in order to confirm whether he had arrived at the original giant room as soon as possible, so as to notify the two surviving entourages to leave.
"Should I say you value friendship or be stubborn." Tianyi ignored the two of them at all. He took out the snake flute from his clothes casually, raised it flat on his palm, and began to recite obscure spells again.
After reading it, he put the snake flute to his mouth and blew it. As the strange melody sounded, a black shadow appeared faintly on the ground in front of Tianyi. Gradually, the shadow turned into a solid body and turned into a black giant snake with a body as thick as a trunk of a small tree.
When the black giant snake became physical, the count was surprised to find that the monster's body was like magma, emitting black gas, corroding all the substances it touched.
The giant snake seemed to have just woken up from its deep sleep. It raised its head, arched its body, observed the surroundings, and then suddenly rushed towards the corpses of the followers next to it.
The Count thought he would see the cruel scene of a giant snake swallowing a corpse, but he once again made a mistake, because this thing is completely different from an ordinary snake. It is definitely a monster that can only be seen in nightmare.
When the giant snake crawled to the corpse of the followers, its thick body suddenly cracked countless large holes, just like its black snake body was covered with patterns in a second. But when you look closely, those were not wounds, but "mouths", one by one, which looked like humans.
It crawled to the corpse of its followers, where the snake body passed by, like magma flowing through, bursts of black gas came out. The black metal in the remains was very reliable and was not damaged at all, but the clothes, corpses, torches, ropes, wooden boxes of the followers, as long as they were touched, would be corroded.
The "human mouths" on the snake's body are constantly biting and chewing, and they continue to flow out black viscous liquid. After the liquid drips, it turns into black gas and rises, making people feel like they are churning in their stomachs.
After two minutes, there was nothing left in the room except Tianyi and the Earl. Earl Boer could no longer tell whether the corpses were swallowed by the snake with its own snake mouth, or were swallowed by the dense mouths of the snake, or were directly corroded...
"This must be a nightmare... God, please forgive me and wake me up." The Count bit his fist and frowned and prayed.
At this time, the black giant snake swallowed the corpses of the followers, turned its head, pressed against the ground, twisted its body, and slowly swam towards the count.
If a person can choose how to die, then being killed by this snake is definitely one of the worst options.
"This is a nightmare, Mr. Earl." Tianyi blocked between the Earl and the black snake, and the snake stopped immediately and lie on the silence.
Tianyi continued: "Life is a dream that cannot wake up, and death is the only way to get rid of this dream. Some people in this world are having nightmares, some people are having beautiful dreams, and most people hope to build their dreams on other people's nightmares, and occupy their own set and imaginary 'moral' commanding heights, and seek peace of mind." He held the snake flute and shook left and right in front of the black giant snake's eyes, as if teasing a cute pet: "There are two snacks for you." Tianyi pointed at it: "Go quickly, or they will escape."
The snake actually lifted the snake's head as if it understood and flew upwards in a straight line. It turned out that this thing didn't need to climb at all, it could float and fly in the air.
In the eyes of medieval people, there are only ghosts and gods that can fly in the sky without wings.
The Earl is no exception: "Is this monster who helped you dig a tunnel?" His tone and expression were in dismay. At this moment, the Earl was already discouraged. When he saw the black snake flying up, he knew in his heart that the two followers could not escape death after all.
"Of course not." Tianyi replied: "It was his mother who dug the tunnel. In exchange, I used some flesh and blood to feed the child."
"Ha...hehe...you call this monster a child..." The Count didn't know why he laughed, maybe because a string in his mind had broken down.
"The adult snakes had eight in ancient times. They were called divine pillars in some civilizations, and in others they were regarded as monsters that destroyed the world." Tianyi said: "I didn't pay much attention to them at first, but later I found that these guys had too much appetite. One adult one was enough to eat all the creatures on a huge territory, and completely corrode the building of those creatures, and finally left a scorched earth to die.
Therefore, I found someone to cooperate and killed seven giant snakes together, leaving one of them and its children, and sealed them in the snake flute in my hand. Of course, these two snakes have been transformed by me into a situation where I cannot stay in this world for too long. Now if they want to survive, they must return to the snake flute."
At the same time, in the passage, the two followers were soon caught up by the Black Snake. As the saying goes: Autobots cannot escape the Decepticon, and the parachutes are almost over eleven.
After all, flying and running are two different concepts, not to mention that it is still climbing the hill.
The two of them were not very determined to run. On the one hand, they were a little worried about the earl's comfort, on the other hand, they did not see the danger with their own eyes, and did not know what they were escaping.
Suddenly, a black giant snake quietly emerged from the darkness behind them and killed one of them.
The remaining guy only felt that Yu Guang had caught a glimpse of something. He instinctively turned his head and saw that his companion's upper body was gone, and his two legs exposed outside the snake mouth were still kicking around.
The giant snake was pitch black, as thick as a tree, and its whole body was covered with human mouths, floating in the air...
The last survivor was pale in fear, his brain was completely short-circuited in fear, and he couldn't even scream. However... after staggering a few steps, the guy actually stabilized the lower plate and suddenly stood up, secreting it like an adrenal hormone. The instinct of survival defeated all negative effects and controlled his body.
He threw the torch towards the snake's face, turned around, stepped out, and ran wildly. After leaving the light source, his surroundings soon fell into darkness, but he could still see things, and he didn't even know why. Of course, he had never considered why at that time.
When a person encounters extreme fear, the almonds in the brain will react and solidify the ongoing but unimportant muscle movements, causing the body to run at a faster speed, be nervous, accelerate the heartbeat, and increase blood pressure, and release about thirty different hormones to prepare the body for the threat. At the same time, in order to focus on the source of fear, people's vision and hearing will improve in a short period of time. The brain drives the body to see, listen, and quickly calculate the way to respond to the source of fear.
The whole process only takes about two seconds in total. Before the fear subsides, the brain will help people make decisions, "fight" or "escape".
At this moment, the last survivor obviously chose to escape. I think anyone who still has rationality will run away when they see such a monster. Unless you are the protagonist of a horror movie or a superstar in the action movie, it is best not to be alone with the monster.
This guy was not scared to death by myocardial infarction on the spot, nor did he sit down softly and wait for death. On the contrary, this guy exerted his physical fitness beyond his usual abilities as if he had instantly opened the first level of the gene lock, and ran all the way in the dark and escaped far away.
