Kroll was in shock: "That anaconda, it's chasing us, isn't it?"
Kroll was obviously frightened by what happened before, and the others also looked frightened. Owen comforted him: "Yes, but don't worry, it has already fallen down the waterfall."
Owen didn't even believe what he said. Sure enough, Adrian said: "It's useless. Anacondas are naturally fond of water. A waterfall can't kill it."
Adrian has been staring at the deep pool below since landing. Fortunately, he has never seen the anaconda appear.
"What should we do?"
"Get out of here right now."
Everyone looked at Monica, whose labor pain had eased.
"Honey, how are you?"
Owen greets Monica.
"Nothing's wrong anymore."
Monica glanced around and said again: "Anacondas are top predators. They all have fixed territories. As long as we leave its territory, we will be safe."
Several people had run out of ideas and looked at each other. Finally, they all looked at Adrian, who should be the person most familiar with Amazon here.
Adrian saw everyone looking at him and could only nod his head and said: "Yes, Monica is right. Every adult anaconda has its own territory, and they will not leave it easily."
"But that one is very big, and its territory must be very large. Can we do it?"
Karl was obviously frightened. Owen calmed him down. Monica continued: "Believe me, we can definitely do it. That beast just ate Martin and it will take at least a week to digest it. We have a chance."
Monica's words seemed to give everyone confidence, and some of them were not as confused as before.
"What do we do now?"
This question was asked again. Owen and Monica both looked at Adrian. Adrian calmed down his emotions, looked around, and then said: "There is a village not far from here. We are heading in that direction."
Let's go, we should be able to find someone to help us."
After determining the direction, several people moved forward together.
Owen stayed beside Monica and walked at the end of the team. Adrian had the only hunting knife in the team and opened the way in front. Those annoying branches and leaves were chopped off one by one with the hunting knife, leaving a passage for people to pass through.
.
The hot weather and the difficult road made several people tired and out of breath within a short time. What was even worse was that at some point, several leeches crawled on each of them.
Owen took out a lighter from his pocket and burned the leech. The leech loosened its mouthparts when heated, leaving only a small wound. Owen put some medicine on Monica's wound. To be honest, he now regretted his relationship with Monica.
Come to the damn Amazon, this is not the place a pregnant woman should come.
The team continued to move forward, and the front gradually opened up. Adrian, who was walking in the front, suddenly slowed down. Everyone saw something was wrong and moved closer, and a stench came.
The smell was like that of an animal that had been dead for at least five days. It was indescribably disgusting. Adrian squatted down and rubbed some mucus on the bushes on the ground. Adrian smelled it, and the smell was...
These mucus are emitted.
"What happened?"
Everyone could tell that something was wrong, and Kroll couldn't help but ask.
Adrian grimaced, "Guys, I have good news and bad news. The good news is that we should leave the territory of the giant anaconda."
"Leaving? Great..."
Everyone's expressions became rich, and Carl was a little ecstatic. He couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the anaconda.
"How did you know?"
Someone who was a little calmer asked, but Adrian did not answer at all, but continued: "The bad news is that we may have entered the territory of another anaconda, and these are the traces it left..."
The cheers of the crowd stopped abruptly, as if their throats had been pinched.
The best way to find anacondas is to smell them. Anacondas have a very pungent smell, just like rotting animal carcasses.
Owen looked at the traces of mucus on the ground. He didn't know how long the anaconda was, but judging from its diameter, it was probably not too small. It was said that most of them were no more than five meters, so why did they encounter two unusual ones in a row?
Knowing that they had entered another anaconda's territory, they still had to go. This road was currently the shortest way to that village. The team moved forward again, but everyone's speed was faster.
Everyone walked cautiously for a while without being attacked, which shocked everyone's spirits. Maybe the anaconda was full and digesting, or maybe it was injured. Anyway, it was a good thing not to be attacked. They
All you have to do is walk as fast as you can.
Ahead, the team stopped again. They were blocked by a lake. The lake was not deep, only reaching waist level. Such lakes are everywhere in the Amazon. Several of them can be created after a heavy rain. This place may have been there before.
A depression looks like this when it fills up with heavy rains. It is not difficult to walk through it. The only trouble is that the lake water is so turbid that you have no idea what is in it.
Owen stood on the shore and frowned. To be honest, this was what he hated most about the Amazon. The visibility underwater was so low that you had no idea what was under the water. Normally, it would be fine to take a boat, but now you have to walk through it.
How much it makes one's heart beat.
"Can't we go around it?"
Obviously, someone has the same idea as Owen.
"It can be bypassed, but it will take an extra six hours of walking."
Adrian didn't say much, but everyone understood what he meant. They were now in Anaconda's territory. Walking for six more hours was equivalent to staying in danger for six more hours. Everyone looked at each other, and no one could make a decision.
.
what to do?
Whether walking across the lake or taking a detour, no one can guarantee which way is safe. In the lake in front of you, the anaconda may be hiding under the water, but there may be nothing there.
In the end, everyone voted to walk across the lake. At this time, we could only take a gamble.
…
While Owen and others were still struggling with the water in the lake, at the bottom of the waterfall where the shipwreck had been, a giant anaconda that was blind in one eye could not break the cable rope on the ship after trying several times.
The other end of the cable was connected to its belly, and Martin had been swallowed whole by him, so the giant anaconda became one with the sunken ship. After trying many times to no avail, the anaconda seemed to understand, and then he
His body squirmed, and Martin, who had been swallowed by him, was spit out again.
The corpse riddled with gastric juices looked even more ferocious at the bottom of the turbid pool, and the anaconda regained its freedom. On the surface of the water, a huge snake head was raised, and the forked snake core flickered in its mouth. The snake core was collected
The odor particles in the air then pass directly to the brain through the Jacobson's organ in the mouth. After some analysis, the brain gives instructions and the anaconda chases in one direction.
