Chapter 14: Sudden Change

It was peaceful in the mountains, and time passed. In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. Bai Chuan had finally taken root in the depths of the mountain range and had his own territory.

As for how the territory came about? Of course, he had to fight for it.

Originally, he had just arrived and had yet to decide which area to stay in. However, at this moment, one of his kind crawled out—the king cobra. It released a warning sound, wanting him to leave, warning him that this was its territory.

Only then did Bai Chuan know that he had already invaded the territory of his own kind. But was he, Bai Chuan, the kind of person who would leave just because you told him to? This warning made him decide to stay here. Now that he had evolved many times, he was already one of the best among his race. Naturally, there was no need for him to give in and win.

It was worth mentioning that other than the battle for territory at the beginning, he had been living a monotonous life of eating and sleeping for the entire month. This period of time was so peaceful that Bai Chuan wondered if this was heaven.

What he lacked the most now was time. Previously, when he was in the previous area, something had either happened here or there, making him think that everywhere was so dangerous.

However, it was also thanks to this month of peaceful growth that his current body had grown to five meters long. In terms of thickness, it was probably about as thick as a human’s thigh. At the same time, he completely understood how strong his digestive ability was now.

In the past, it would take ten days to save up a few points, but now, it only took six days. It could be said that the evolution speed was almost half as fast.

How powerful was he now after a month of evolution? Just by looking at the interface, one could tell.

In terms of abilities, there were two more level 2 abilities than before, namely Agility and Strength.

Agility came from the wild rabbit he had hunted again during this period of time, and Strength came from a wild boar. Yes, a wild boar. A small wild boar that was alone for some reason.

Under normal circumstances, wild boars were social creatures. They had incomparably hard outer skin, which was formed by the hardening of mud mixed with their fur. Coupled with the hard and sharp fangs, under normal circumstances, he would not have the chance to hunt wild boars alone. Moreover, even if he was lucky enough to kill them, he would not be able to eat them.

This was because wild boars were too vengeful. Once they were offended, they would defend to the death. Therefore, poisonous snakes often had a hard time dealing with wild boars. Even if they were poisoned to death, they would not have a chance to eat them because they were too big to swallow.

Furthermore, if the poisonous snake was not careful and did not make it up the tree in time, it would be trampled or knocked to death by the boars.

Therefore, in nature, King Cobra usually minded his own business and did not interact with the wild boars at all.

However, he was too lucky that time. He did not know what had happened to the wild boars, causing them to flee in all directions. As a result, a small wild boar was left alone.

At that time, when Bai Chuan saw this scene, he carefully sized up his surroundings and found that there were no boars guarding it. He compared the benefits and risks in his heart. Realizing that the benefits were greater than the risks, he took the risk and poisoned the small wild boar to death before swallowing it.

This also allowed him to obtain the Level 2 Strength ability.

It was also thanks to these two new level 2 abilities that his body size could grow from three and a half meters to five meters in a short month. It could be said to be a huge gain. Not only had his strength increased, but his speed had also increased greatly.

In terms of strength, he was not inferior to a wild boar. Although his speed was not as fast as a rabbit’s 70km/h, it had reached 50 km/h. This number might not look high. But it should be known that the Black Mamba, which had the fastest crawling speed among snakes, only had a maximum speed of 20 km/h. The maximum instantaneous speed of human running was only 44.722 km/h.

From this, it could be seen how ridiculously fast he was as a king cobra. It could be said that from today onwards, if he unfortunately encountered humans in the future, he could easily escape with his speed.

Not to mention that his current strength was no longer the same as before. His strength was comparable to a wild boar. With his current speed, just ramming was already very terrifying.

Of course, he did not dare to ram anyone now because his growth speed seemed to be too fast, so the strength of the scales seemed to be unable to keep up with his current body for the time being.

In just a month, he had become so powerful. It seemed that it was time to hunt a few large birds of prey. One had to know that he had long had enough of the monotonous view of snakes. They were lifeless and colorless.

Previously, because there was no guarantee of survival, he could only prioritize evolving his physical strength. But now that his strength had become stronger, it was time to consider support abilities.

He had been looking forward to bird vision for a long time. Was there any bird better than an eagle? At the same time, he wanted to see if his current strength could easily hunt eagles.

And he happened to know where the nests of the eagles were.

As his thoughts appeared. The huge snake crawled out of the cave again. Now, his body could not fit in many tree holes, so he had no choice but to choose the cave.

In the green forest, the snake’s body snaked forward. Even his scales could not hide his strong muscles. It was enough to prove the terrifying power of this giant snake. His heavy and powerful body kept making “shasha” sounds as it moved. It was the sound of crushing leaves and grass.

Coupled with his unparalleled speed, every time a sound sounded, a pitch-black phantom would quietly flash through the forest. Under the illumination of the mottled sunlight, those metal-like scales were beautiful and mysterious.

Bai Chuan walked towards the top of the mountain and suddenly stopped. He slowly raised his snake head and stared to the side. His cold snake eyes were filled with vigilance. His body began to curl up non-stop, and his neck suddenly swelled.

It was a little unfavorable. Bai Chuan thought with a heavy heart.

Not long after, a series of galloping footsteps appeared. On the side, in the direction that Bai Chuan was looking at, a huge wolf beast with a shoulder height of 80 centimeters appeared. Its body was nearly 1.3 meters long, and its fur was gray. Its wolf eyes were bright and full of killing intent.

With the appearance of this wolf beast, smaller wolves began to appear behind it. The wolf beasts pricked up their ears, raised their tails, and lowered their bodies. Clearly, they had entered a state of preparing to attack.

Seeing this, Bai Chuan immediately understood that the wolf at the front was the alpha of this group of wolves. He counted in his heart. There were a total of seven wolves. It was a little difficult. Bai Chuan, who had never fought with the wolf pack, did not know the final outcome. He tentatively propped up his upper body, wanting to scare away the wolves.

In an instant, the snake’s body that was more than two meters tall was raised, and his expanded neck made it look even thicker and taller. However, all of this only caused a slight commotion in the wolf pack before it recovered with a low growl from the alpha.
