Chapter 115 Miracle Seeds - Snake and Forbidden Fruit

The huge fire feathers flapped several times behind Luke, stopping his tendency to fly backwards and stabilizing his body.

He wiped his mouth and burned away the remaining blood. His injury was not serious as most of the impact was absorbed by the flames covering his body. Otherwise, with Luke's current physical condition, he would have been seriously injured.

After all, he is only at the second level, and the direction of strengthening is mainly in the mental aspect. Even with many other blessings, his current physical fitness may not be comparable to that of a physical strengthener from the initial to the second level.

This time, the Sun Fire consumed a lot of energy to resist the damage, and the time it could maintain the Fire Feather form was reduced again.

After calming the surging blood, Luke looked up at the giant python. It was also injured and did not have the time to deal with its injuries like Luke did. The Bigfoot who had just been thrown away shook his dizzy head and rushed up again, entangled with the python.

Although the python is extremely powerful, its power of bewitchment is no longer effective on Bigfoot, who has given up his brain. With the restraint of the toxin and the shadow, Silas can still hold on.

Luke descended a little, and the Molten Gold in his hand once again summoned tiny sparks of fire under the control of its master. However, the power of these tiny sparks of fire was not as weak as it looked.

The color of the fire changed from orange to golden yellow, becoming more and more dazzling, and finally stabilized into a dazzling white fire blade.

This is a flame with a temperature of nearly 2000 degrees, and it is also the most lethal weapon that Luke can currently create.

Holding a blazing white blade, Luke Red Feathers fanned it and rushed forward. While the giant python was struggling with Silas, he found the spot where the snake's head was one-seventh of its length - seven inches - and slashed it with his sword.

However, the python was very sensitive to its own weaknesses. It curled up its body and covered that spot with other parts of its body. Luke's knife only cut another wound on it but failed to cause a fatal injury.

After all, snakes can survive even if their heads are cut off. For a giant python that is more than 20 meters long, a slightly deep wound is nothing.

After Luke landed, he used Bigfoot as a shield and dodged and moved around to avoid the python's entanglement and bites. Some people took the damage, while Luke just focused on output. He left several deep and shallow scars on the python, but it was a pity that it protected its vital points too well, so he never had a chance to deal a serious blow to it.

A dark, slender shadow rose from the ground and connected with Luke's shadow. A familiar voice came into Luke's mind.

"I'm Alex, speaking to you via Shadow Link."

"The python's injuries don't look fatal. How long can you last in this form? Do you have any means of escaping?"

This is his special means of communication. He can talk to his teammates through the link between shadows, just like a wired telephone.

At this moment, he felt that something was wrong. The giant python's body was too large and hard. Although it looked like it had many wounds and looked very miserable, it was the three humans who were currently in a passive position.

Alex roughly estimated his remaining shadow energy. Although he could still hold on for a while, if he delayed for a few more minutes, the shadow would be consumed more and that ability would not be usable.

If Luke no longer has the ability to make the final decision, he will have to retreat.

After listening to Alex's words, Luke thought about it, followed the channel in his consciousness, and responded: "My fire ability has been used to the limit. Unless I hit it at the vital point, it will be difficult to kill it."

"As for escaping, I can fly, so it shouldn't be able to catch me."

After listening to Luke, Alex relaxed a little: "I also have a way to escape. I can directly wrap Silas with a shadow, walk through the other world for a short time, and leave instantly."

"Space travel?" Luke asked in surprise.

This is an advanced ability, so coveted.

Alex paused and explained, "Not really, it's just that the form of expression is somewhat similar."

After listening to him, Luke suddenly thought of a way.

There are also two "Javelin" missiles stored in his [Endless Stomach]. However, he has never tried this thing and is not familiar with its use. If it is launched from a long distance, the automatic guided infrared equipment will not be very effective against cold-blooded animals such as snakes. Although this snake is very large, it may not be possible to hit the long and thin thing from a distance.

If you are too close and blow yourself up directly, you may get blown up as well, and both sides will suffer.

However, with Alex's spatial ability, it should be no problem for the missile to explode in the face.

Luke communicated his idea with Alex, and after getting the other party's confirmation, Luke leaned back, and tried to bear with Silas for a while longer.

He flapped his wings and flew into the air, took out the "javelin", gave up the infrared automatic lock, and according to the method he remembered, he put the basilisk into the crosshairs and swooped down.

As the distance got closer, the giant python coiled up and rushed towards Luke to bite him. By the time it noticed the missile with flames burning on its tail, it was too late to dodge.

The shadow connected to Luke swelled and swallowed him whole.

Luke's eyes went dark, then brightened up again a moment later. He was already a hundred meters away, with Silas beside him.

Just as the move was completed, a loud sound of a rocket launcher exploding came from the python's side.

As a rocket launcher designed for armored equipment, the Javelin can penetrate 800 mm of armor. Even a powerful level 3 monster like the Human-Headed Python that can ignore the design of rifles is useless in the face of weapons of this level.

The giant python's scales were easily penetrated by the rocket. After the violent explosion, the giant python that appeared in front of Luke had been split into two. The two broken parts were on the ground, twisting, wriggling, and slapping the ground wildly.

The serious injuries have made the python unable to control itself. The civilized rationality of human beings has been completely abandoned. Only the beast instinct remains, and it madly attacks everything around it.

"Sigh~"

Alex, who had just given his brother another calming talisman, took a deep breath and made a small contribution to global warming. He showed a toothache expression: "This thing... is not cheap."

Luke put the remaining launchers back into the [Endless Stomach] and nodded: "It's OK, only about 20 dollars, but it's hard to find a channel, and it's not convenient to get too much at once."

20? Not bad?

This fucking business of finding someone is not even worth 20. If I shoot it myself, I will lose money on this deal, regardless of anything else.

Of course, they came to find someone not just to make money, but mainly because of their identity as demon hunters. Luke sensed the vicinity of the giant python. The [Spirit Fang] was shaken out of the giant python's body in the explosion just now, and now it fell quietly to the ground. Now the seriously injured giant python is indiscriminately attacking the surrounding area randomly, bursting out the last of its strength. The surrounding area is very dangerous, and he will never get close now.

However, [Spirit Fang]'s long-range attack is fine.

The python was no longer protecting its vital point as nervously as before, and its defense was greatly reduced in its violent state. Luke summoned the [Spirit Fang], poured his mental power into it, causing it to accelerate suddenly, and shot towards the python's vital point.

Although the python was constantly tumbling and difficult to aim at, it also had a huge heart underneath its huge body, and the seven-inch area was also very large.

After all, seven inches refers to the heart area of ​​snakes.

Facing the giant python in poor condition, [Spirit Fang] finally worked. Under Luke's mental control, the "penetration" and "wind-tearing" effects worked at the same time. After a slight delay, it broke through the python's scales, tore into flesh and blood, and pierced into its heart, stirring it violently.

After a moment, a prompt came from the panel -

"Kill a Level 3 spiritual creature"

"Gained the skill - Infrared Vision (mutated)."

"Infrared Vision (Mutation): You have the infrared vision effect. You can directly see infrared radiation, which is a light wave outside the visible spectrum. Mutation effect: In the absence of special concealment abilities, you can directly observe the concentration of spirituality in other people's bodies, and use this to roughly observe and confirm their extraordinary level."

Reconnaissance skills!
It can be used for both mortals and extraordinary people, which is very good.

Luke looked at himself, then cast his gaze at the two brothers beside him. The spiritual concentration of these two brothers was slightly stronger than his, but the difference was not big, and there was no huge gap between the third level and the second level. So they should be at the peak of the second level, almost reaching the third level.

The spiritual concentration here is somewhat related to combat power, but it is not a completely positive correlation. For example, some weaker third-level enemies, Luke can defeat them alone, but the opponent's spiritual concentration is still much higher than his.

"Obtained the Silver Seed - Beauty Python."

Seeds are coming out again!
Since Luke joined the extraordinary world, he has killed several level 3 monsters, but except for the first tooth fairy, which was a benefit for novices, he has never dropped any extraordinary seeds again.

I finally met him again this time.

However, this giant python is much stronger than the Tooth Fairy, but the seeds it exploded are actually one level lower. I don't know if it's because of its racial disadvantage or if Luke is simply wrong.

The panel prompts continue:
"Do you want to consume 1000 points of spiritual essence to enhance the spirituality of the Silver Seed - Beauty Python?"

Wow, the first time you upgrade your “Teeth” you get a free trial, but the second time you have to pay for it?
However, you still have to spend money on it. After all, these spiritual essences have not disappeared, but are with Luke in another form.

Luke silently chose to agree, and the spiritual essence that he had just accumulated with great effort immediately flowed out like a flood. After a moment, there were only 50 points left in the spiritual essence column on the panel.

"End of promotion"

"Obtain the Miracle Seed - Snake"

"Saved."

Normally, a person can only use one extraordinary seed in his lifetime, but after all, Luke opened it, and the panel boss took the initiative to mention the extraordinary seed and saved the seed, so he felt that at this critical juncture of promotion to the third level, this seed could play some unexpected role.

The matters on the panel were handled, and less than two minutes had passed in the outside world. The giant python's lifeless body had just stopped struggling.

The three of them looked at each other, and slowly moved towards the snake's corpse with a little caution. The scarred woman was excited to see the giant snake dead, but she was afraid that the three witchers would kill her as well, so she timidly followed the three men at a distance.

At this time, most of the extraordinary energy in the beauty python's body had dissipated, and under its body, the seed emitting an alluring glow had been exposed.

"It's an extraordinary seed!" Silas shouted excitedly, and was about to step forward quickly to take the extraordinary seed.

However, Alex stopped him. In Silas's confused eyes, he smiled apologetically to Luke and explained, "We also have a younger sister. Some time ago, she also learned some information about the extraordinary field. However, she has never used the extraordinary seeds."

"Holding some dangerous supernatural information puts a lot of pressure on ordinary people. Her mental state is no longer stable. This next search mission is also because we have been looking for monsters that may have supernatural seeds."

After explaining the whole story, Alex looked at Luke sincerely and asked, "Can we take this extraordinary seed? Apart from this seed, we don't want anything else from this trip. If you need anything, I can give you some money."

Halfway through his speech, he remembered the scene where Luke had just killed the beauty python with a US dollar, and he immediately lost his confidence. Although his family could not be said to be poor, they were obviously no match for Luke, a rich man whose strongest weapon was the US dollar.

He paused and said bitterly: "I don't think you would consider this little money of ours. Is there anything else you need?"

For Luke, the panel has helped him condense a better "Miracle Seed - Snake". This physical silver-grade seed is actually of little use to him. Even if it is given to him, it is nothing more than a treasure in the bottom of the box. It can be exchanged for all other spoils, which is actually a good deal.

"Okay, you guys take the seeds, I'll go pack the other things."

In the Snake Valley, there was still a lot worth harvesting from this giant python. Luke glanced at the woman who was still standing nearby, ignored her, and directly took out the extraordinary organ left by the beauty python - the python gall.

In addition to snake gall, the next thing is snake skin.

However, the snake was too large to be completely peeled off in a short time. Fortunately, the python was a long and thin strip, and although it was very large, the two parts of the body could be rolled up and barely fit into the [Endless Stomach].

After collecting the bodies, Luke looked at the scarred woman and took a few steps towards her. The blood on his hands almost scared the woman so much that she turned around and ran away.

However, although she was very scared, she forced herself to calm down. After all, Luke could be considered her benefactor because he had killed the basilisk.

Looking at the woman, Luke asked, "Where is the fruit tree you mentioned before, what effect does it have, and why does the python keep guarding it?"

The woman pointed in the direction the python came from. "It's over there, about another thousand meters. I call it the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, because its fruit, like the forbidden fruit that Adam and Eve ate in the legend, can make irrational people, even animals, wise."
