"Those snakes are all gray and white, and their pupils are golden. Each one is as big as a human fist. Those vertical pupils are like the eyes of dragons, cold and vicious, except they are not as bright." Chu Tianjiao described.
The scene at that time, "But it was still very scary. None of the crew had ever seen such a huge snake, and of course I hadn't either."
"The eyes of snakes emit golden light, and their mouths spit out messages frequently, leaving thick traces on the road they pass by. We didn't notice it before just because these traces are too thick and dense. Countless traces are stacked together.
Like the natural unevenness of the ground." Chu Tianjiao paused, "But this time we saw it with our own eyes. I believe no one has seen such a terrifying scene. A group of huge snakes dozens of meters long were approaching at a fast speed.
You, that scene looks like a dragon returning to its den!"
The people in the room imagined the scene, and it was indeed quite nerve-wracking, especially the girls, who had goosebumps all over their bodies.
For many people, snakes are disgusting enough. If a snake is magnified hundreds of times, people with weak psychological endurance may be scared to death on the spot.
"At that time, several crew members couldn't help but curse. They were relatively courageous. Some crew members with lower psychological quality were completely frightened and even almost fainted on the spot. Sasha and several crew members at the front
I couldn't help but point my gun at those giant snakes." Chu Tianjiao said, "I noticed the strangeness of those snakes, and I yelled at them loudly not to attack those snakes.
After shooting, Sasha calmed down, but several crew members still fired at the snakes out of fear. The bullets hit the gray-white scales of the giant snakes, and actually made a clanging sound of metal plates. The snakes'
The scales are as hard as iron, and the giant snake makes a shrill scream when it is shot. Can you believe that a creature like a snake can actually make a roar other than spitting?"
"Creatures like snakes don't even have vocal cords, let alone a throat. They don't make any sound at all except the sound of friction between limbs and external organs." Chu Zihang said, "Those giant snakes you hear
Is it possible that the roar of snakes is because the sound they spit out is too loud, and because of your fear, you mistook that sound for a roar?"
"No, that's a real roar, just like the roar of wild animals out of anger or fear. I can hear the emotions in their voices." Chu Tianjiao shook his head and said, "Those giant snakes have dark golden eyes every time.
Each one is very bright and looks very abrupt in the gray-white forest."
"Maybe it's because the dragon's blood changed their original body structure, causing those giant snakes to evolve a body structure similar to mammals." Chu Zihang whispered, "But what did those giant snakes encounter? They were so huge that even
A species that is not afraid of bullets was so frightened that it fled in panic and screamed in fear. What is there in the center of this island?"
"We finally saw what frightened these monsters, but that's a story for another day." Chu Tianjiao said, "When those soldiers opened fire, I pulled Sasha aside and pinned him down against a tree.
Behind the tree, a moment later we heard screams of fear and pain from all directions.
The roars were all made by the crew members who fired. When the giant snakes passed by them, some opened their bloody mouths and bit off half of the crew members' bodies in one bite, and some used their huge bodies to hang people alive. They
Use the fastest speed to kill the crew members who fired, and blood was flying in front of Sasha and I."
"Did those giant snakes only kill the sailor who fired the gun?" Caesar asked.
"Yes, there were also crew members escaping in the direction we came from. I guess because their nest happened to be in that direction. I saw some crew members trying to climb up trees to avoid the attack of the giant snake. I cursed inwardly at my stupidity.
, because snakes must be able to climb trees, and didn’t we see the remains of snakes on the trees when we came?” Chu Tianjiao shook his head and said, “But the result was completely beyond my expectation. Those crew members who escaped into the trees
They were all safe and sound, and the giant snake didn't attack them at all."
"These giant snakes look like they are running away?" Chu Zihang looked at Chu Tianjiao.
"Yes, this is what I realized later. I originally thought they would attack all moving creatures, but it turned out that they only fought back against those who actively attacked them, and by the way attacked those who escaped in the direction of their lair."
Chu Tianjiao said softly, "Both the people who climbed the tree and the people who stayed still escaped this disaster, except for a few unlucky ones who were affected by the giant snake's huge body when it moved."
"The snakes quickly disappeared into the forest behind us, leaving a mess on the ground." Chu Tianjiao said, "In addition to the roads crushed by them, there were also blood and corpses on the ground. They appeared very suddenly and left.
It was also very hurried, and even the 'trophies' - I mean the remains of the crew members were not taken away in time, it seemed that they were just in a hurry to get away from here."
"Snakes are not social animals originally. It is very rare for a group of snakes to move together." Chu Zihang said, "Snake creatures will deliberately lower their voices when moving, but these snakes actually caused such a loud noise when moving.
Snakes are very abnormal, and when snakes spit out messages, they either mean they are ready to hunt or they are afraid. The wisdom of these snakes contaminated by dragon's blood sounds higher than that of ordinary snakes, but the characteristics of reptiles are also obvious on their bodies. They are obviously infected by something.
Something scared me."
"About half of the surviving crew members are left, and many of them are injured. Fortunately, they only have minor scratches." Chu Tianjiao paused, "No one was seriously injured. Those who were attacked by the snakes all suffered.
Severe fatal injuries, all crew looked on
Everyone was shocked by the horrific scene. Sasha was also completely stunned. He looked at the direction in which the snakes disappeared and kept muttering, "Oh my God, are these really snakes?", "Oh my god, are these things really snakes in this world?"
There really is such a big snake!'"

becomes bigger, so the snake needs to shed its skin, because the body after cell division will burst the original
The epidermis of the snake will often become larger after molting." Chu Zihang explained, "This kind of cell division is uncontrolled and has no endpoint until they die. That is to say, if there are enough prey,
With enough rich nutrition and a long enough lifespan, the body of a creature like a snake can grow indefinitely."
"That's how the legendary worldly python Jörmungandr came to be, right?" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but interject, but suddenly realized that what he said was inappropriate, and quickly changed his words, "What's more, these snakes were captured by dragons.
It’s not unusual for blood-modified genes to make subspecies of dragons bigger than anacondas.”
"Snakes are animals that are very adaptable to the environment. I think they must have lived on the 'Island of Death' for a long time, so their bodies are the same gray-white color as trees, which can be understood as some kind of evolution." Chu Zihang
Looking at Chu Tianjiao, he said, "You don't let the crew move. In addition to seeing what the snakes are avoiding, you should know that snakes have poor eyesight, right?"
"Yes, the static vision of pythons is almost the same as that of blind people. They judge living creatures through infrared heat sensing. Snakes rarely attack stationary people, but if they move quickly, it is easy to arouse the snake's desire to attack." Chu Tianjiao nodded.
The head said, "I watched the snakes disappear.
direction, and looked at the direction of the center of the island. I could tell that the snakes escaped from the center of the island, and they did not live in the center of the island from the beginning. Remember, we once passed those snake holes,
They are on the outskirts of the island."
"Generally speaking, the closer a forest is to the center, the richer its resources are. And these snakes living on the periphery of the island indicate that there are more powerful creatures in the center of the island." Chu Zihang murmured in a low voice, "What creatures are there than these?
Huge snakes are more powerful and can scare them into fleeing hastily... Is there a dragon king living there?"
"I urged Sasha and the others to leave quickly, but the crew members seemed to have lost their fighting spirit. They did not dare to retreat because they did not know whether they would encounter those giant snakes again. They also did not dare to move deeper into the island because they would not
Do you know if there is something more terrifying than a swarm of snakes hidden there?
." Chu Tianjiao said, "Sasha also asked me with a bad face to rest on the spot, because some crew members were injured and the wounds need emergency treatment, and there are more dead crew members. Even if there is no time to replace them,
They disposed of the bodies and at least wanted to take away some of their belongings."
"This is human nature, and I also need time to think about what is hidden deeper on the island, so I accepted Sasha's proposal." Chu Tianjiao said, "But an accident still occurred. A crew member was
When I was picking up the relics of my dead comrades, I suddenly heard a scream, and everyone rushed over to see, and found that half of the sailor's fingers had been corroded."
"What is that?" Caesar frowned slightly, "The venom left by the snake?"
"No." Chu Zihang shook his head, "Logically speaking, larger snakes contain less toxins. This is the law of nature. Pythons and anacondas are almost non-toxic or only contain mild non-lethal toxins.
Moreover, the venom of venomous snakes is neurotoxin, and no snake venom has such a strong corrosive effect."
"It's not poison, it's blood." Chu Tianjiao explained, "When the crew member was picking up things, he accidentally came across the blood on the corpse of his comrade. He thought the blood belonged to his comrade, but some of the blood in it was left by snakes.
of."
"Snake's blood?" Caesar's frown deepened.
"Yes, it was then that I realized that not all the blood on the ground was the blood of the dead crew members. There was also a small amount of blood left by the snakes. Further away, the road where the snakes passed could also be vaguely seen.
Red blood stains, they are injured." Chu Tianjiao nodded and said
, "This once again confirmed my guess that there was something deep in the forest that injured those snakes, so they were so scared and fled there in such a hurry, because these snakes are all dragon subspecies, just like Deadpool.
, their blood is corrosive."
Everyone's expressions were a little solemn. The "Island of Death" really deserves its reputation. Even an ant or the remaining blood of a snake is fatal. Even an experienced retired special forces soldier will be lost here if he is not careful. life.
"In this way, we can no longer continue collecting the relics of our comrades, because it is impossible to distinguish between snake blood and human blood, and we don't know which blood will corrode the epidermis." Chu Tianjiao said, "He simply bandaged the crew member. After clicking our fingers, we moved deeper into the island. Every next step we took was cautious and difficult, because we didn’t know if any more terrifying creatures would appear from somewhere. After all, we all know that there are snakes here. Something more terrifying."
"But fortunately, nothing as terrible as the snake attack happened again, and we didn't even see any animals on the road." Chu Tianjiao said, "The closer you get to the center of the island, the more lush the large plants become, not to mention the moss. And ferns, not even shrubs and trees were seen. Every tree was extremely tall, blocking out the sky and the sun, and seemed to have grown for hundreds of years. Moreover, many types of trees were difficult to identify. They The branches are lush and leafy, and the branches are straight but not thick. We feel like we have entered a prehistoric civilization."
"This is a normal phenomenon. As I just said, the closer to the center of the forest, the more resource-rich parts. Large plants will block the sun and absorb more nutrients. It is difficult for low plants to grow in their surroundings. Survive below." Chu Zihang paused after saying this, "No, moss and ferns are not restricted by this condition. You should be able to see more or less moss under your feet."
"There is no moss, only huge trees, all of which are truly towering trees." Chu Tianjiao shook his head and said, "Until we actually reached the center of the island, we saw what we had seen in the painting 'Island of Death' The biggest tree is terrifyingly tall, at least two hundred meters, no, maybe three hundred meters."
"So far, the tallest tree recorded in the world is the 368-meter 'Devil's Tower'." Chu Zihang said, "But it is not certain whether it is a tree. Some people say it is a rock mountain, and some people say it is a tree. The foundation left after the collapse of the World Tree. If such a tree really existed in history, it would be at least several thousand meters high and truly towering over the sky. The second tallest tree in the world record is a tree in the Redwood National Park in California, USA. The Hyperion tree is nearly 116 meters high."
"Just like those huge snakes don't exist in nature, we haven't seen such huge trees in nature. Unlike other trees, the trunk of that tree is so thick that I can't even estimate it with the naked eye. diameter, and its leaves have more green parts than gray-white." Chu Tianjiao said, "This is the first time on this island that we have seen creatures with colors other than gray-white."
