Godly Thief Incarnation Chapter 76

Chapter 76: King of Snakes Part 1

Zhou Jian had almost used the entire piece of wax trying to attract the Anaconda. He waded through the river and crushed a leech that was sticking to his skin. The leech’s bite could not break through his own armor’s defense. And at the same time, a piranha was biting on his thigh. Seeing this, Zhou Jian could only bitterly smile. These few days, he had been cruelly tortured. At times, he thought of setting off a flare and burned the Amazon forest.

In fact, there had been some illegal jungle hunters who really set the forest on fire these last few years to catch the prey. But the effect of this was quite limited and the Jungle Hunters a.s.sociation had forbidden this. Anyone who was found out would be immediately executed.

Evening approached not long after, and because those trees had covered up the starlight, the Amazon forest had become black like ink. Zhou Jian pulled a coa.r.s.e vine and climbed up a tree. He was prepared to pull his sleeping bag from his inventory when he heard a rustling sound from the shrubs under the tree. He immediately turned very quiet and turned on stealth to hide in the dark, carefully observing.

The shrubs shook and a dark shadow drilled out. Its two green s.h.i.+ning eyes were like will-o-wisp, floating around. Was it a snake? Wolf? Or a feline species?

Zhou Jian quietly took a flashlight from his inventory. Based on his experience, he heard the hissing sound was like that of a snake. Wasn’t it an anaconda variant?

Zhou Jian did not turn on the flashlight but used his Thief skill – Detection. Suddenly, all the living things in the periphery was under his perception. Zhou Jian gasped. This snake was more than 20 m in length and its abdominal was thicker than a bucket. On its dark green back, the scales were the size of a scallop. It really was an anaconda variant!

Zhou Jian turned on the flashlight without hesitation. In the dark of the night, because he was warm-blooded, Zhou Jian was just like the bright light in the night in the eyes of the Anaconda. He would be stupid not to turn on the flashlight.

The flashlight shone and the anaconda was caught off guard. This time, it came here not to hunt but to seek for a mate. But after following the scent here, it did not find its counterpart but found a game that emitted a dangerous atmosphere.

The anaconda variant hesitated slightly for a moment and then opened its mouth wide towards Zhou Jian and then rushed over. Its thick body was like a coiled up spring and Zhou Jian could only tumble down from the tree. He heard a click about his head. The thick waist of the anaconda variant had smashed the tree into two.

Zhou Jian fell from a 10 m high tree and then rolled down on the ground. His heart was palpitating fiercely. With his right hand, he took out an MP5 from his inventory and with the left, he was holding onto Shadow a.s.sa.s.sination. He was continuously staring at the Anaconda variant.

The Anaconda variant body suddenly contracted. The rest of its body quickly came up from the bushes and coiled together just like a hill.

“It’s so big.” The 20 m length may not sound much but when the bulky body was right in front, the visual impact was really big.

Zhou Jian held the Shadow a.s.sa.s.sination in his mouth. Both his hands were cradling the MP5 submachine gun. His right-hand finger was tightened on the trigger. He never had the experience of opening fire before and this was the first time that he fought with a gun. In Zhou Jian’s heart, he was disturbed and at the same time very excited.

He took a deep breath and his fingers fiercely buckled down. The night was suddenly full of the cries “Da Da Da”. The gun muzzle was sprouting out flames.

The Anaconda variant was like being stepped on the cat’s tail. It twisted crazily back and forth. The bullet went puff puff puff into its thick scales, spluttering out blood. If the snake had a vocal cord, at this time, it would be constantly screaming.

Zhou Jian played with satisfaction but it’s only a few seconds before the MP5 issued out a Ka Ka sound. Zhou Jian gawked slightly. Was it already out of bullet?

The MP5 had only 30 rounds of bullet and its rate of firing was extremely quick. It’s less powerful and Zhou Jian did not accurately aim when he opened fire. The Anaconda variant was too big. When the bullet was raining, it balled itself up.… At this time, there was blood all over the Anaconda variant body but it actually did not receive too big of an injury.

The Anaconda was enraged. It desperately sought out Zhou Jian. All the vegetation where it pa.s.sed through were broken off and it opened its big mouth trying to bite Zhou Jian. There’s not enough time for Zhou Jian to replace the cartridge clip so he threw the MP5 and suddenly jumped to attack. However, when he was airborne, the thick snake tail came over like a whip.

Zhou Jian heard a whistling sound and when he raised his head, he saw a thick snake tail rus.h.i.+ng at him.

How could such a big body be so flexible? Since he was airborne, he was unable to escape. Zhou Jian clenched his teeth and protected his chest area with his arms and received the blow of the strike.

“Puk!” Zhou Jian received a solid hit. His internal organs felt like they were all dislocated and his body was like a kite that lost its string.

The forest of the Amazon had many overlapping branches. As Zhou Jian flew, he didn’t know how many trees he had pa.s.sed or how many branches had grazed him. His body was aching from top to bottom. As he tumbled down from the sky, he took his hand out of instinct and held onto a thick branch. He then directly hung on the tree.

The Anaconda was rus.h.i.+ng closely under the tree. It lifted its large head and bent its neck slightly. Its two green bulb eyes were still locked onto Zhou Jian. It raised its first half of the body and was using its mouth to try and bite Zhou Jian.

Zhou Jian wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth. In that moment, the anaconda would soon attack. He tightly clenched his teeth. And between his eyebrows, he shot out a purple beam – Spirit Needle!

The speed of the purple light was like a bullet. It directly pierced into the anaconda variant’s body. And at the same time, Zhou Jian loosened his hand and his body fell down like a big bird.

The anaconda variant fell into a stunned state. Zhou Jian then went up towards the snake’s neck and wielding Shadow a.s.sa.s.sination, madly stabbed it. The anaconda gigantic body was carelessly swaying side-by-side from the pain stimulation.

However, when Zhou Jian had stabbed for four or five times, the Anaconda variant woke up from the stunned state. Its neck twisted around and simultaneously, the tail flung towards Zhou Jian.

To Zhou Jian’s great surprise, it actually woke up so quickly. Was this guy’s Spirit force the same as a “G.o.ds and Demons” boss? Zhou Jian hurried down from the anaconda’s body but he suddenly found that his legs had been caught. Bad!

The Anaconda variant body was more than 20 m and extraordinarily flexible. In just one short second, the snake had tied up both of Zhou Jian’s leg. 

Chapter 76: King of Snakes Part 2

The anaconda belonged to a branch of the snake family that was non-toxic. The way they killed the prey was through suffocating them. An ordinary 6 m long anaconda was able to wrap itself around a Cayman alligator to its death. If it was an anaconda variant, it would be able to wrap a hippopotamus to death.

Zhou Jian had no doubt that as long as the anacondas wrapped himself tightly and squeezed a little, he would be turned into mincemeat.

He desperately tried to get his leg out but his leg was like being locked with a cast iron. It wouldn’t move no matter how he tried.

And at the same time, the anaconda opened its wide b.l.o.o.d.y mouth, ready to bite Zhou Jian.

At the crucial moment, Zhou Jian felt like his whole body was burning up. And at that moment, he acted without thinking and exhausted all his body strength and stabbed the anaconda’s mouth with Shadow a.s.sa.s.sination.

He concentrated his spirit. Fallen Blood – three times critical strike!

“Puff!” The dagger was inserted deeply into the anaconda’s mouth roof but the price for that was that Zhou Jian’s wrist was punctured by the anacondas two rows of sharp teeth.

The severe pain flocked to his brain. At that moment, Zhou Jian almost fainted. He suppressed his impulse to pull his hand out because he knew that the anaconda’s teeth were curved inwards. Once it bit, it wouldn’t let go, unless of course, Zhou Jian was willing to pull apart his own wrist.

His blood trickled into the anaconda’s mouth due to a broken artery. Zhou Jian health points dropped like a punctured bag. He had never felt so close to death. And the three times critical strike that could crush the testing machine with a strike could only unexpectedly hurt the anaconda forehead.

The snake continued to tighten and continued wrapping around Zhou Jian’s body. In the moment of despair, Zhou Jian’s brain suddenly had a brainwave. The lips! Attack the pit organ in the snake’s lips!

Snakes received infrared using the pit organ in their lips to track and capture warm-blooded animals. Once the pit organ was damaged, they would be blinded!

Zhou Jian pulled out a saber with his left hand from the backpack and used it to hit against the anaconda’s pit organ. Although the saber was not as sharp as the Shadow a.s.sa.s.sination but it was more than adequate to destroy the anaconda’s pit organ.

The anaconda was injured at the key point and its body s.h.i.+vered. Zhou Jian took this opportunity to pull his leg out but his hand was still bitten by the anaconda’s mouth.

Could he escape using the Blink Strike attack? In the game, once the character was captured, the Blink Strike would fail. He didn’t know how it would be like in reality. But it was so dark now, where could he seek out a large animal to be the Blink Strike target?

Facing a monster with a body length of 20 m, and with only his left hand holding a saber with feeble attack power, his mind quickly ran across a series of possible methods of attacking and escaping. However, all of those were completely rejected.

As he lost more and more blood, Zhou Jian’s brain even felt a bit of intermittent dizziness. Even if the anaconda was blinded, as long as this stalemate continue, he didn’t have long to live.

When he just didn’t know what else to do, Zhou Jian’s brain had another inspiration. He reached into his backpack and found his last weapon – the Desert Eagle!

Zhou Jian’s left-hand quickly flipped over and the silver Desert Eagle was brought out. Its thick muzzle was aimed at the anaconda variant’s big mouth.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

…..

After eight consecutive gunshots, Zhou Jian finished all the bullets in the cartridge clip in just one breath. Also, his strength was far higher than any normal human. So, his left hand was able to resist against the continuous recoil but it was also somewhat numbed with pins and needles.

Because of the darkness of the night, the Desert Eagle muzzle left behind a stream of flame that caused his eyes to be temporarily blinded. He took a while for his eyes to adjust back to the darkness and by then, he saw that the anaconda variant had had been beaten by half. Its body was still wriggling around but apparently, it wasn’t that far away from dying.

Zhou Jian took out an HP recovery bottle from his inventory. Gasping for breath while gulping, he never dreamt that he would experience such a dangerous experience while making the decision to enter the Amazon forest. Because the ghost killer avatar had an overwhelming strength, it gave him an illusion that this game character was invincible in reality.

He could jump high into the air and could successively defeat Bayudh, Nis.h.i.+kawa, and Matsumoto, those three big masters. But he had forgotten, all these people did not have guns on their hands.

In this era of thermal weapon, the real master must attain union in both cold weapons and thermal weapons, or suffered the consequences. If the one who went against the anaconda variant today was a fully armed special force, then the battle would be much easier.

Even if an expert marksman might not have it easy using a Desert Eagle to hit the Anaconda variant who had a high-speed attack and strong defense, but if he used a Gatling gun with ant.i.tank grenades and rocket launchers?

Zhou Jian remembered that when he first entered the Norris City Hotel, the domineering jungle hunter had said these few words, “you think the most difficult portion of this mission was to kill the Anaconda variant? Ridiculous! Although the Anaconda variant was fierce, but it could not go against a rocket launcher. The most difficult part of this mission was to find the Anaconda variant. The Anaconda variant was situated deep inside the Amazon forest and must at least penetrate eight hundred miles to reach it. Just this distance alone was enough to kill 95 jungle hunters on the road!”

Zhou Jian was able to come here because he had stealth. In addition, he had game equipment that had a heaven-defying defensive power to guard against attacks. If it was just an ordinary bounty hunter, he would likely to be bitten by a poisonous insect and killed half way through.

Zhou Jian even considered whether he should start looking at guns but he soon rejected the idea. Researching firearms was not just a one-day effort. He might as well spend a little bit more time on leveling up inside the game to improve his strength, which would be much easier.

Zhou Jian finished the HP replenis.h.i.+ng bottle while dressing his wounds. The amount of health that could be recovered by the “G.o.ds and Demons” recovery bottle was not much. Furthermore, there was also a cooling time. It’s no use using those recovery bottles while being part of a team to level up, and it would be better to be healed by a priest instead. If it’s just one person, then he should either returned to the city and asked for an NPC for medical treatment or had one of those valuable healing skills.

Zhou Jian rested for a while as his right hand slowly regained its consciousness. The biting force of the Anaconda variant was quite amazing. Fortunately, he had a defensive equipment or his hand would have probably been broken.

Zhou Jian slowed his breath, he wanted to use his saber to cut the anaconda’s corpse but the snake abdominal scales were thick and tough. The sharp steel alloy blade continuously slipped while trying to cut. It’s only because Zhou Jian’s hand strength was astonis.h.i.+ng that he could do this. If it was up to others, perhaps they couldn’t do it.

Zhou Jian changed his saber into the Thorn of Shadow. It didn’t take any effort at all and the Thorn of Shadow was able to slice through the snakes abdomen like cutting through tofu. Zhou Jian opened a long hole and put his hand inside to dig around. Cool snake blood flowed down through Zhou Jian’s wrist. He touched around for quite a while and finally felt something like a peach. He used the saber to open the snakeskin and gouged out a green snake gallbladder. He cut off the bile duct and use a climbing rope to tie up the bile duct to prevent any bile leakage. Once the snake was angry, its bile secretion would increase. So, when Zhou Jian harvested the gallbladder, it was smooth and full.

Looking at the size of this stuff that was almost a fist, Zhou Jian wryly smiled. He knew that he would probably not come across this stuff in his life.
