Python Rebirth on Survival Island Chapter 42

In the Red Zone.

The Red Zone was also a giant forest….

However, this forest was several times more dangerous than the forests in the Green Zone.

Terrifying killers were hiding around every corner.

Creak!

While Ye Bei led the eight other Blood Pythons in surveying the battle, a cold gaze swept toward them from far away.

Ye Bei instinctively looked in the direction of the gaze the moment he felt it land on him…. He’d thought that everything was going to be fine, even though he hadn’t gotten a good look at the situation. But when he saw what was really going on, even he couldn’t help but tremble, and he retreated several meters backward.

The crocodiles had formed into a massive group inside the swamp.

And the reticulated pythons had strong offensive capabilities and were easily over twenty meters long….

But all of that was fine compared to what Ye Bei saw when he looked in the direction of the gaze.

What Ye Bei saw was much more terrifying and frightening than the frenzied massacre before him.

It was a giant python.

That’s right…. It was one giant python!!!

The python he saw was at least 40 meters long and had a grayish-brown body. It had used a mere three meters of its body to form an A-shaped base on the ground to support itself. The remaining 30-odd meters of its body were propped upright like a rod.

Because of its color, as well as how motionless it was, it looked exactly like a giant tree.

At first, even Ye Bei had failed to notice its existence.

However, now… Ye Bei could clearly sense the two large, football-like eyes of this giant python staring straight at him.

The eight other snakes, Spring, Flower, Autumn, Moon, Pursuing, Joy, Making, Merry, who were following by Ye Bei’s side, immediately started trembling. They clamped their mouths shut, and their eyes widened. They didn’t even dare to breathe.

“System! Can I devour this snake?”

Despite his fear, Ye Bei’s heart was full of boundless energy and nervous excitement.

He imagined…

That if he could devour such a snake, even if he didn’t gain a large number of evolution points, his body would definitely undergo an unprecedented transformation…. He might even grow from his current eight meters into a forty-odd meter python like the one before him.

“Host! This is a mutated reticulated python. It’s 41.22 meters in length, and it’s over 2.23 meters in diameter! It’s the king of those reticulated pythons…. With your current make-up, there’s practically no way you can devour it! Unless, of course, you complete the fifth stage of evolution and genetically transform yourself into a Titan Python.”

The system was extremely merciless.

Its answer instantly shattered Ye Bei’s excitement.

A length of 41.22 meters, a girth of 2.23 meters…

If he hadn’t seen the snake in person, Ye Bei never would have believed that such a monster existed in this world—not even if someone had shown him a video or picture of it! Darn it, this python was a freak of nature.

It certainly wasn’t a joke that this area was marked as a death zone on the map.

The so-called longest python in the world was less than fifteen meters long. That was like a child compared to this snake….

Ye Bei couldn’t devour the king of the mutated reticulated pythons. However, when he again sensed the python’s sinister gaze, he cautiously asked the system, “It won’t attack us now, will it?” At the same time, he silently considered how he should escape from the area…. Then, he thought about how after he escaped, he would search for opportunities to evolve non-stop before finally devouring this mutated reticulated python.

“You’ll know that after you assess the situation!”

The system didn’t give a direct answer to Ye Bei’s question and instead gave the above statement.

Just as Ye Bei was about to ask the system what it meant…

Ye Bei saw something that shocked him even more than the previous scene had.

He’d thought that the gargantuan king of the mutated reticulated pythons was massive enough to crush everything in its path.

Wham, crash…

Rumble, rumble!

And, sure enough, the next moment, Ye Bei could clearly see the giant trees of the forest falling one by one. The deafening sounds and earthquake-like tremors caused by the falling trees assaulted his eardrums.

“What is going on…”

Ye Bei’s eyes widened even more when he heard this sound.

However, at that moment, the eight pythons beside him finally came to their senses.

“King! This place is too dangerous…. Why don’t we leave for now?”

“That’s right. These are all mutated monsters! We’ve already come across all these types of mutated beasts, even though we’ve just entered this area. Who knows what kinds of wild beasts exist deeper in the area…. Even though we desperately want to turn these creatures into food…”

“It’s a good idea to return to our base and rest, then wait for a larger number of living creatures to respawn before devouring them.”

The eight Blood Pythons thought it would be best to retreat.

As for Ye Bei… he ignored their words. His gaze was locked on the area where the giant tremors and sounds were coming from.

He paid close attention.

With the help of his mental powers, Ye Bei could finally clearly see what kind of monster it was….

It was a humongous crocodile.

The skin on its body was black… Its scales protruded from its skin like hills the size of half a football field. Its pitch-black skin looked even sturdier than steel.

Its body was at least twenty meters long.

And each one of its teeth was nearly half a meter long.

“This is the mutated crocodile king?” Ye Bei secretly exclaimed to himself when he saw the creature.

The mutated beasts in the Red Zone were completely beyond his imagination. They were like the giant monsters in the fictional comics of the human world…. Any one of these creatures could cause a huge catastrophe in the human world.

Compared to these giant mutated beasts, the mutated tigers and mutated eagles Ye Bei had encountered in the Green Zone were mere child’s play.

Ye Bei was in complete shock.

Following the appearance of the mutated crocodile king, the giant reticulated python immediately shifted its gaze away from Ye Bei and the eight other Blood Pythons. It locked its eyes on the crocodile… Then, the two massive creatures charged toward each other without hesitation.

Roar!

Their giant roars spread out toward the horizon.

Rumble, rumble…

The earth seemed to shake the moment they collided with each other.

The mutated king of the reticulated pythons tightly coiled its massive body around the mutated crocodile king.

However, the crocodile king had no plans to concede defeat. Even though its body was ensnared, it mercilessly chomped down on the reticulated python king’s body…. Its lethal, half-meter-long teeth completely sank into the python’s flesh.

There was fresh blood everywhere.

The monsters, probably because of pain, rolled around the forest in a frenzy, and the giant tremors they made were never-ending.

Faced with such a situation, Ye Bei felt his earlier fear and shock give way to excitement…

This might just be an excellent opportunity for him!

… After all, a fisherman stands to gain in a battle between a piper and a clam!

Now, all he had to do was wait for their battle to pick up in intensity!
