In the Land of Inheritance.
The sky was high and cloudless!
At the top of the mountain, Ji Ye lay motionlessly behind a rock.
The Mantis Invisibility Cloak he was wearing had automatically turned into the same color as the rock. Even an Ordinary Rank-9 Golden Condor would find it difficult to quickly locate him.
"Hiss, hiss …"
About a hundred meters away, a black snake with black scales and a pair of horns on its head was slowly swimming towards the shore. It had the blood of a flood dragon.
"For snake-type creatures, the most fatal spot on their bodies is their heart. As the saying goes, 'hit the snake seven inches below its head'."
"Because it is responsible for the blood transfusion of the entire body, as long as the heart is destroyed, the snake will die!"
"In addition, the 'three-inch' position on the snake's body is also considered a vital point, because this position is the weakest part of the snake's spine and the easiest part to break. Once it's interrupted, the connection between the central nervous system and the rest of the body will be destroyed, and the person will lose the ability to move. "
"Of course, because of the differences in the size and species of snakes, the specific positions of 'three inches' and 'seven inches' are different. Therefore, we cannot measure the length from the head to the back. We must make a judgment based on abundant experience!
Staring at the Black Serpent swimming in the water, Ji Ye recalled the information in his mind.
In fact, as a professional survivor in the wild, he naturally had some knowledge about the "seven inches" and "three inches" of snakes.
However, it wasn't as thorough as it was now.
This was because under Ling Chen's efforts, he had personally dissected hundreds of different types of snakes.
Ji Ye looked at the Black Serpent that had the bloodline of a Flood Dragon and could swallow a Golden Condor, as if he were looking at a bowl of Black Jade Snake Meat Soup that was boiling with steam and had been sprinkled with green onions!
Speaking of the Extraordinary level, there had been more detailed statistics on the forum in the past few days.
Magic, True Qi, Esper abilities, firearms, electronic devices …
To a certain extent, these items represented that humans had mastered extraordinary powers that surpassed their own. They were all classified as such in the Land of Inheritance!
"However, according to the forum!"
"An Extraordinary item doesn't mean that it's definitely more powerful than an Ordinary item!"
For example, a magic apprentice with a particularly weak body was qualified to call himself "Extraordinary" even though he had grasped a trace of magic power through meditation.
However, this trace of Mana couldn't even cast a single spell. Facing an ordinary person with a strong body, he would still be smashed to death with a single punch.
Even being able to cast magic didn't mean that one wouldn't be smashed to death. After all, magic didn't equate to defensive magic, and even if one mastered defensive magic, it didn't mean that they could cast it when someone got close to them.
Therefore, in theory, even though this Black Serpent was an Extraordinary Rank-1 creature and a Commander-level creature that was even stronger than an Elite, it would still be fatal if the Ordinary Rank-9 Heavy Bulldozer Crossbow hit it in a vital spot like the heart!
Yes, the Heavy Bulldozer Crossbow!
Ji Ye glanced at the Heavy Bulldozer Crossbow, which was also in a camouflage state under the cover of the Mantis Invisibility Cloak.
Speaking of which, during the tests, the Heavy Bulldozer Crossbow's power was indeed astonishing. Even after flying a distance of 150 meters, it still had a powerful killing ability.
However, the relative weight was also a little exaggerated. It was more than 20 kilograms. With the arm strength of an ordinary person on Earth, it was impossible to steadily raise it horizontally and aim, let alone use it in battle!
However, this wasn't too big of a problem for Ji Ye. Compared to when he killed the Bronze Bull a few days ago, his current attributes had increased to a certain extent.
[Race: Human (Earth)]
[Talent: Fusion (Ordinary, Inheritance)]
[Level: Ordinary Rank-9 (Elite)]
[Skill: Bulldozer Body Tempering Force (Perfected), Seven-Sided Mantis Fist (Intermediate)]
[Item: Heavy Bulldozer Crossbow, Black Wasp Arrows, Flame Burst Arrows, Purple Jade Sabers, Cowhide Combat Boots, Mantis Invisibility Cloak …]
[EXP] 0
In the offline meeting five days ago, after learning about some of the special characteristics of the settlement … Ji Ye had already decided to complete this mission.
For this, he even used up almost all the EXP he had accumulated over the past few days to finally derive Bulldozer Body Tempering Force to the "Perfected" level.
As a result, his level also reached Ordinary Rank-9 (Elite)!
Of course, it was still not enough to face the Black Serpent head-on.
After all, the two Rank-9 Golden Condors had worked together to attack him, but in the end, one died and the other was injured. They had even delivered themselves to his doorstep, allowing him to take advantage of them.
Therefore, Ji Ye's real trump card was still the two large crossbow bolts that were of different colors and shapes, placed next to the Heavy Bulldozer Crossbow!
One was completely silver, while the other four had black arrowheads!
The effects of the silver "Flame Burst Arrows" naturally went without saying, and the black arrowheads were the result of a new round of experiments after his Fusion talent was off cooldown.
[Black Edge (Crossbow Bolt)]
[Level: Ordinary Rank-9]
[Rarity: Superior]
[Description: A Special crossbow bolt that has been fused with the Black Wasp's venom. After hitting the target creature, it will quickly paralyze the nerves of part of the target's body.]
Although they were only Ordinary Rank-1, each of them was the size of a fist, and they often moved in groups of hundreds. Even Ordinary Rank-8 and Rank-9 creatures would have to retreat from the venom of the Purple-Eyed Black Wasps.
The bottle of cologne that he had originally planned to sell to newbies was a huge contribution!
"Hiss, hiss …"
While Ji Ye was recalling this matter, the Black Serpent had already completely swam out of the pool. After it climbed ashore, it revealed a body that was more than 15 meters long.
Then, it crawled towards the side of the mountain at a speed that was even faster than when it was in the water!
"Hmm, are we going to enter the fog area again?"
Seeing this situation, Ji Ye's expression changed.
In the past few days, apart from preparing for the Black Serpent, Ji Ye had also spent some time trying to find the "only human settlement" mentioned in the quest.
However, he did not succeed.
Firstly, it was because the range of the thousand-meter-tall mountain was too large.
In addition, there were a large number of Rank-7, Rank-8, Rank-9, and even Extraordinary monsters hidden in it. It was impossible to conduct a comprehensive investigation at the moment.
Secondly, there was a large area to the south of the mountain that was always obscured by the fog. Without knowing the situation inside, he definitely did not dare to rashly enter it.
However, in the past few days, the Black Serpent would crawl into the fog for a period of time every day. When it returned, its stomach would be bulging, and its movements would be much slower.
Obviously, this Black Serpent with the bloodline of a Flood Dragon came to the fog to hunt.
After all, not every time would a Golden Condor come to its door like the first day. And its appetite was far greater than that of its kind on Earth that could survive a month of hunger after eating a meal of mice or frogs!
"So, the best time to attack is when it leaves the pool to eat in the fog before returning!"
Ji Ye was not in a hurry to attack.
Instead, he watched the Black Serpent enter the churning fog and chose to continue hibernating on the rock.
Because he felt thirsty on the way, he drank a bottle of Nestle mineral water that dropped after killing two fiery red sparrows that were more than a foot long.
But to be honest, Ji Ye preferred drinking Nongfu spring water.
