Chapter 13: Battle with the Cauliflower Snake
Nanhu Normal University has 28 colleges, 5 teaching departments and more than 100 undergraduate majors, covering 12 disciplines such as philosophy, economics, law, pedagogy, literature, history, science, engineering, agriculture, medicine, management and art. The school has six major disciplines, such as developmental biology and ethics, and more than ten colleges and universities. Yifan and the others were in the north courtyard of the academy's headquarters, The cafeteria they were going to was a mid-sized academy cafeteria, Every day, at least five students from dormitory areas like Yifan and the others would come to eat in this cafeteria. There were also teachers and students from two nearby buildings. There was a small artificial lake not far from this cafeteria, so this cafeteria was called the lakeside cafeteria in the students' mouths. It was the destination of their trip to Yifan.
At this moment, Yi Fan's team had a total of 139 people. There were 55 boys and 84 girls. The strong man and the three small teams had walked no more than a total of 60 people. Most of them were boys, and there were only six girls. As a result, there were actually more girls on Yi Fan's side than boys. It usually takes about 15 minutes to walk from the dormitory to the cafeteria, but now the situation is estimated to take about half an hour.
At this moment, Yifan had a solemn expression on his face. He was holding a barbell rod and clearing the way ahead. At this moment, they had already walked less than half the way. They had also encountered scattered zombies. Fortunately, there were no large-scale zombies. Beside them were Zhang Liang and Zhou Xin. Walking out of the dormitory area was a green belt. There used to be a few flower beds here. Turf was planted inside, Planting ornamental dwarves, But after the apocalypse erupted, these little trees and grass grew wildly overnight, They were actually half a person tall. Some of the larger ornamental trees were taller than humans, causing even the edges of the flower beds to be invisible. It was like walking on a jungle path covered in deep grass and trees on both sides. However, there was indeed a cement path beneath their feet, giving everyone a strange feeling of unreality. This green belt was very long. Normal University was also famous as a model green university, giving Yifan a headache. At this time, Zhang Liang activated his spiritual detection, and Zhou Xin's vertical pupils were sharp, one on the left and one on the right, following Yifan.
The sound of rope shattering was basically silent under the footsteps of the 100-strong troop. However, Yifan still waved his hand to stop the troop. Just now, he had a strange feeling that danger was approaching.
As soon as everyone stopped, Zhang Liang, who had just turned on his psychic detection, shouted, "It's bad that something is approaching. It's very fast."
Just as Zhang Liang finished speaking, Yifan rushed to the middle of the team like a gust of wind, followed by Zhou Xin and Zhang Liang.
In the middle of the group of fifteen sports students guarding with various weapons, there was a girl on the left and right. One was a red-haired, silver-eyed French beauty in a black leather coat-Fei Na.
One was a peerless apricot-eyed beauty hanging behind her like a black waterfall-Ji Ruoxue … The two of them each held a fire axe in their hands. As an evolver's perception and vigilance, they also felt that something was wrong with their bodies.
There was even a faint sound of threads and snakes hissing. One of the quick-witted athletes even warned, "Watch your feet, watch out for snakes."
This made Fina pay attention to her feet. Normal reactions in peacetime. Hearing Suso hiss, there must be snakes around. This was Fina's first reaction, but she had forgotten. Everyone had forgotten that this was no longer a peacetime era. This was the end of the world. Thus, the apocalypse allowed them to see what a mutated snake looked like in the apocalypse.
"Hula..." A large, black-and-white, circular shadow flew out from behind a small, tall tree. Fina shot straight at Fina. Fina was completely focused on her feet. She never thought that danger would descend from her head. Seeing the black shadow and her body, Fina could only see a huge bloody basin full of fangs biting at her head. An extremely fishy smell from the mouth almost fainted her.
He was about to die. At this critical moment, a black and white humanoid figure charged towards Fina like a bolt of lightning.
"Crack!!" With the sound of teeth clashing, the giant mouth closed, but it gritted empty. The black figure stood up, seemingly furious that his food had disappeared. He opened his huge mouth again.
'"Hiss..." A loud snake-like scream echoed.
At this moment, everyone could clearly see the true body of the black figure. It was a huge snake with black scales on the back of its head and white "king" stripes. Its pupils were round with black and white striped scales. The exposed part was seven to eight meters long, thicker than a bucket.
No one had ever seen such a terrifying and ferocious snake at such a close distance. In the middle, it was the closest to the giant snake. There were even a few girls under the giant snake's mouth. Two of them were so frightened that their pupils dilated on the spot. Their heartbeats stopped and they saw that they would not be able to survive.
A few of them screamed in fear, their entire bodies softening, they knelt on the ground, their lower body drooling, the smell of feces pervading the air.
The lightest students behind them all had pale faces. They sat on the ground weakly and felt their heartbeats miss a few beat. The nearest sports students also sat on the ground. One of them was so frightened that tears ran down his nose and he howled incoherently.
"Snake... snake... snake... snake... snake... snake... snake... snake... snake."
This miserable howl was like a signal. The team was instantly thrown into chaos. They pushed and ran backwards desperately, only hating that their parents had lost two legs. They cried out in panic, "Run, snake, what a big snake! The cauliflower snake actually grew so big! Too terrifying! Run!" Some of them even dived into the bushes, hoping to leave this terrifying place as soon as possible.
The giant snake saw itself roar and its prey flew around. This was not bad. With a swish, it opened its big bloody mouth and bit down on an unavoidable student. It swallowed it down in one bite, and its blood-stained tongue constantly moved through its mouth, as if it was picking the next prey.
It was too late. Yifan had just saved Fei Na. Before he could ask, he heard crying, howling, and all sorts of chaos behind him. He couldn't help but be enraged. A snake was troublesome enough. If he attracted more mutated beasts or zombies, these people would probably die.
"Qiangzi, Zhang Liang, Zhou Xin, what do you do for food? How did I tell you to evacuate? Who else dares to cry out loudly for me? If you don't obey my orders, kill them on the spot!" He couldn't help but shout loudly.
Zhang Liang, Zhou Xin, and Qiangzi couldn't help but blush after hearing this. The boss had indeed told them that in case of an accident, apart from protecting the lives of other people as much as possible, if the situation was chaotic, they had to maintain the scene so that it wouldn't get out of hand. Actually, it was also because something had happened so suddenly. It was the first time that they had seen such a ferocious mutated creature, and their hearts were pounding.
The three of them hurriedly shouted, "Got it, boss!"
Only then did Yi Fan look at Fina, whose face was deathly pale, who was thrown to the ground by him. He stretched out his hand to pull Fina and said, "Are you alright, Fina?"
Fina's silver pupils were filled with gratitude for the rest of her life, and she even said with admiration, Thank you for saving me. His tone was very gentle.
Seeing her like this, Yifan said softly, "It's good that you're fine. Then follow Qiangzi and the others to retreat to the back. This big snake is about to advance to the Second Grade mutated beast. Your ability is not suitable for this battle. Go help the other students retreat."
Finished speaking, Yi Fan ignored her and strode towards the giant snake. Fina looked at her back and didn't know what she was thinking.
"Eyeglasses, come with me to deal with that cauliflower snake," Yi Fan shouted as he walked.
Eyeglasses said in horror, "Yifan, you told me that it was a cauliflower snake. You didn't paste it on me, did you?! It's that cauliflower snake that people in the countryside often catch to eat? Isn't this crazy? It's too exaggerated!"
He quickly caught up and handed over the barbell stick that Yi Fan had inserted on the ground when he was saving her.
Yi Fan said indifferently, "You didn't hear wrongly. It's just a cauliflower snake."
"What a crazy cauliflower snake!" Eyeglasses said helplessly.
At this moment, the giant snake was greedy for fresh human flesh and blood. There, it was willing to let go of such delicious food. Two or three limp girls on the ground were about to become snake-kissed delicious food.
At this moment, Ji Ruoxue stood out with a pale face. A blue and white ice arrow shot out from her hand. In a hurry, it hit the giant snake's mouth, causing its tongue to freeze. The giant snake was enraged.
Suddenly, a loud hula rang out behind the giant snake, and a huge tail coiled behind it swept towards Ji Ruoxue.
"Hu …!"
Ji Ruoxue was prepared and quickly retreated without being swept away. However, there were two girls sitting on the ground and the sports student who was pulling them down. They were indeed in a tragic situation.
"Pa …!" The boy who was swept away by a giant tail exploded on the spot. The rest of them flew in the air and spat out a few mouthfuls of blood. Like broken sacks, they fell on an open space of more than ten meters without any movement.
Yifan finally arrived at this moment. Seeing this huge mutated snake, he swept four to five students to death with one tail. He couldn't help but be furious and shouted, "Beast, die!"
With that, he quickly rushed over and borrowed strength from a large tree to jump onto the giant snake's head. He used all of his strength, and in front of him was a stick. The evolution of Yifan's strength in this lifetime was much more perfect than in his previous lifetime. He had already increased the strength of his First Grade by 10 times. One could imagine the strength of this stick.
It was like a drum being beaten hard by someone. "Dong!" The giant snake's eyes popped out and some blood flowed out of its eyes. Obviously, it was injured. The giant snake was about to go crazy from this attack. It really didn't wait for him to go crazy.
Eyeglasses also seized the opportunity and used his innate ability to jump up from the ground. At this moment, a barbell rod in his hand had completely turned silver white, and it was even slightly blinding. He aimed at the seven-inch position of the Giant Snake and stabbed it.
The giant snake was probably aware of the danger as well. Its coiled body quickly jumped up and opened its mouth wide to bite Yifan.
Yifan reacted very quickly. He stomped on the snake's neck and used his strength to retreat. He grabbed the branch of a large tree with one hand and rolled on it.
Eyeglasses stabbed into the snake's body. A three-meter-long barbell stick pierced into the hard scales and penetrated several inches deep. Unfortunately, the snake avoided its vital points. To the snake's huge body, it was just a skin wound.
However, the glasses themselves were in danger. The snake quickly tightened its body, wanting to strangle the glasses to death.
How could Yifan let it. He kicked his legs on the big tree branch and jumped 8-9 meters into the air. He held the stick with both hands and threw his foot down like a thousand jin cannonball towards the center of the head of the big snake. The big snake was about to tighten its winding glasses and lowered its head;
Dong …!
A loud sound like a giant drum rang out. Blood flowed out of the giant snake's eyes and even its mouth. The scales on the Yifan stick on its head exploded.
A good "king" was also smashed so hard that he couldn't recognize it. This time, the giant snake went completely crazy. Its body shook violently. Before its glasses could even pull out the barbell stick inserted into the giant snake's body, it was thrown flying. It crashed into a tree by the roadside. Fortunately, he was also an evolver. Furthermore, he was not an ordinary evolver. He only felt his blood vitality surge and his body was not injured.
Yi Fan's attack was successful, and he immediately borrowed strength from the serpent's head. He wanted to use the same trick again and jump up the tree. He really didn't want the giant serpent to be bitterly hated by Yi Fan's heavy head bombardment twice. How could he escape so easily?
It quickly rushed up to bite Yi Fan. Fortunately, Yi Fan was not an ordinary evolver. He had plenty of combat experience and when he jumped away, he was facing a giant snake. He was just waiting for Yi Fan to think about how to resolve this awkward situation.
Whoosh!
An ice arrow shot straight into the serpent's eyes. If the serpent continued to move up, there would be a danger of blindness. The instinct of the animal made the serpent stop moving up. It even shrank its head down and shut its mouth.
"Pa!"
The ice arrow hit the corner of the snake's mouth. The ice splashes did not cause any effective damage, not even shaking the giant snake's head.
Yifan's heart relaxed as he prepared to cast a grateful gaze at Ji Ruoxue.
"Hiss …!"
An extremely short sound rang out, but at this moment, the serpent shot out like a crossed bolt of lightning, slanting towards Yi Fan's neck.
Eyeglasses and Ji Ruoxue exclaimed in unison,
"Be careful!!"
"Boss!!"
At this moment, Yifan's mind was blank. There was only this blood-red crossed lightning left in his eyes. He was constantly regretting his carelessness. He was careless. Damn it. At this moment, something suddenly shattered in Yifan's head.
Suddenly, he felt his mind tremble. The trajectory of the forked lightning, which could not be seen clearly, was unexpectedly like a slow motion movie. It was extremely slow.
This was … Yi Fan's surprise … This was the microcosm of spiritual energy …
'Ding …!'
At the most critical moment, Yi Fan actually awakened his spiritual energy. The giant snake's messenger was crossed at the center of Yi Fan's stick. Yi Fan was even pushed back to the tree with this help.
