Absolute Death Game

Chapter 386 - 24 Super Pet



Xiao Buli jumped away in fright, the extent of the rock was just too large, with a diameter of over ten meters in length and as big as a room. Had it not been for him preparing his next Cloud Thunder Leap, with his speed being extremely fast, he might have been crushed beneath it. But the giant python wasn’t so lucky. It had been constantly disturbed by the rocks shaken loose by Xiao Buli. The python seemed to be flustered and with its massive size, it struggled to move its body of over ten meters in length swiftly. Although many hollows in the ground and most of the python’s body were inside these hollows, the portion exposed on the surface was still firmly pinned down—a gigantic, bright red number 1325 burst above the python’s head. The python, feeling the pain, let out a miserable howl that was deafening within the confines of the not-so-large cavern.

Xiao Buli hurriedly plugged his ears. Hearing it through a computer screen was one thing, but experiencing it firsthand was something else altogether. Xiao Buli felt his tympanic membrane bulge due to the vibration and quickly opened his mouth to relieve the pressure in his ears. The python, with half its body exposed and pinned outside, struggled desperately, continuously slamming against the cave walls, apparently trying to use its last bit of strength to break free. But the rock was too enormous, and despite its efforts, it couldn’t budge it even slightly, causing more rocks from the cave walls to keep tumbling down. Xiao Buli quickly dodged, fearing he might follow in the python’s misfortune.

After a while, the python seemed to exhaust all its energy, and as the screams weakened, its upper body heavily collapsed onto the ground. The rockfall within the cavern gradually ceased, and calm was restored.

Yi Xuan, who had been hiding in the cave where they had taken refuge earlier, only dared to poke his head out when he heard the silence outside. The incident had happened so suddenly that he hadn’t seen anything, only heard a loud bang and the python’s cry, scaring him so much that he didn’t dare come out to watch the fight.

Xiao Buli found Yi Xuan’s cautious peering both irritating and amusing. If he had indeed been caught by the boulder while waiting for Yi Xuan to heal him, he probably would have been a goner. But it was a natural human reaction; the situation had been extremely dangerous, and even he might have chosen to flee. Therefore, Xiao Buli didn’t blame him and instead waved him over.

Yi Xuan wasn’t in the mood to wonder why he could wave; he quickly ran over. Both men cautiously approached the direction where the python’s head had fallen, fearing it might suddenly make a lethal move.

As the two got closer, they could see clearly that the object that had fallen was indeed a rock, but it was completely different from the other rocks in the cave. It was thoroughly black and seemed to absorb light in a way that made it impossible to see its surface clearly.

However, at that moment the two were more interested in the python. The middle half of its body was trapped, with only about two meters of the tail end exposed. The python’s head looked battered from the collision, with two rows of eyes that resembled lanterns now shut. The center of its forehead had been struck open, exposing flesh that had turned inside out. Getting closer, one could smell the salty stench of blood. Yi Xuan might have been okay, but seeing this scene in front of him and smelling the odor, Xiao Buli felt his stomach churn.

The two of them had not even gotten close when the python suddenly opened its eyes. Even with only four eyes, it still gave them a fright. In the blink of an eye, the python’s head shot out, lunging for a bite. It seemed the python had been feigning death, waiting to deliver a fatal strike to the two men. Xiao Buli mentally cursed his bad luck, but before he could react, the python’s head was nearly upon them. Then, the head, already close, suddenly let out a pitiful scream. The eyes that had been full of resentment and venom became panicked in an instant, and the python’s head began twisting in agony.

Xiao Buli, upon seeing this, realized what had happened—the python was still trapped by the huge rock. It had thought the two men were within its striking range and had launched an attack before they got too close, but it misjudged the distance. In its attempt, it not only failed to gain any advantage but also aggravated its injuries, causing it extreme pain.

Angered by the python’s attempt to scare him and seeing it incapacitated, Xiao Buli saw an opportunity. He stood in place and continuously used Mysterious Ice Slash on the python, while Yi Xuan, though unable to use Ice Element spells, wouldn’t let such an advantage slip by. He launched a barrage of talismans toward the python, but to no avail—the hits on the python’s body only caused superficial damage of -5 or -7. Discover more stories at NovelBin.Côm

Xiao Buli saw that the python only had a sliver of health left and quickly stopped the still aggressive Yi Xuan.

"Wait, wait, I have something to ask it," Xiao Buli said.

Having seen Xiao Buli’s capabilities, Yi Xuan admired him even more and had no objections to his words. Hearing Xiao Buli’s call to halt, he immediately ceased his actions.

The python seemed to know its end was near, but it wasn’t willing to die just yet. Its yellow eyes glared fiercely at the two men. Xiao Buli, ever cautious, didn’t let his guard down, even though the python seemed to be on its last legs. He kept a distance and watched the python’s movements.

After a moment, the glare in the python’s eyes softened, losing the resentment it had earlier. Its mouth opened slightly, emitting huffing sounds. Xiao Buli didn’t understand at first, but as the python repeated a few syllables, Xiao Buli listened closely and it seemed to be saying, "Human... please... mercy... do not kill...".
