Chapter 7: Stealing Food From The Snake’s Mouth?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After leaving the tree hole, he crawled along the stream. Along the way, the tall and lush trees gradually turned into sparse trees. The sky became wider and wider. There were no longer any branches blocking his view. He was on the mountainside with sparse trees.
At this moment, Bai Chuan stopped crawling forward. Because the place ahead was too empty, it was difficult for him to hide his tracks. He quietly hid on a tree branch and lowered his head to look into the distance. His snake tongue kept flicking.
The long wait began. Time slowly passed. During this time, deer and snakes passed by. Three to five wolves ran past, but Bai Chuan ignored them.
Suddenly, two furry rabbit heads appeared in the distant bushes at the same time. Then, they disappeared and reappeared.
If someone were to get closer and take a closer look, they would definitely see that the two rabbits were standing on their hind legs for some reason and were constantly using their forelimbs to “fight” each other. It was really strange.
Seeing this, Bai Chuan’s eyes lit up. Good lord, there was a one for one. That was good.
Finally, Bai Chuan, who had been waiting for his target to appear, stopped hiding. His thick snake body began to snake down the tree trunk. He had to borrow the enhanced rabbit ability—Danger Perception. He finally had a rough idea of the range of alertness of the rabbits.
After knowing the other party’s background, and for some reason, the other party let down its guard, Bai Chuan quickly reached the bushes near the two hares.
Then, Bai Chuan saw a scene that shocked him. The two rabbits were imitating humans and were “fighting”. In an instant, his mind went blank as a bunch of questions popped up in his mind. What was going on? Were these two rabbits stupid? Would he contract this disease if he ate them?
At the same time, at some point in time, not far behind where Bai Chuan had been hiding, a handsome bird had appeared at the end of a thick branch. It is dark brown on the forehead, head, and side of the head, with white base feathers on the neck, white eyebrows with black dry feathers, black ear feathers, and grayish-brown upper body to tail.
It was a goshawk!
At this moment, it stood there quietly, its sharp eagle eyes fixed on the two playful rabbits on the ground. It was obvious that the goshawk had its eyes on Bai Chuan’s target.
At this moment, Bai Chuan, who was below, was still unaware. After regaining his senses, he no longer cared about this situation. In any case, he would take down the other party first. If he was afraid, he could just scan it. He held his breath and prepared to attack. This was because he was not hunting for food, but only to obtain an ability model.
Therefore, Bai Chuan did not intend to attack the relatively larger one. Instead, he chose the smaller one. He arched his upper body and accumulated strength, but at this moment, a piercing sound came from afar.
Shocked, Bai Chuan raised his head and saw a huge bird swooping down. Influenced by this, the two “playing” hares were also shocked. They stopped what they were doing and happily chose a direction to run in.
“F*ck!” When he saw this, Bai Chuan couldn’t help but curse. This sudden change caused his target to run away in fright, causing his attack that he was 90% sure of to miss. He raised his head and stuck out his tongue, staring at the eagle that flew past. Coincidentally, the eagle chose the petite one as its target.
He did not know what kind of eagle it was. He could only barely tell that its head was bald for some reason, as if it had been pecked away by something. Its wingspan was more than a meter, but it was not more than 1.5 meters.
Its size was indeed considered a ferocious bird compared to the wild rabbit, but compared to his huge snake body that was more than three meters long, it could only be said to be small. It was true that those birds of prey were natural enemies of snakes, but Bai Chuan was sure that this little guy’s name was definitely not among the cobra’s natural enemies.
Looking at the big bird that had taken down his target and flown away not long after, and was so arrogant that it did not even look at him, an indescribable grievance attacked Bai Chuan’s heart. Reason told him that failure in hunting was a common occurrence. If he failed once, he could come again next time. Moreover, how could a snake that could not fly fight a flying bird?
Moreover, it was an exceptionally dangerous bird.
It was true that this eagle could not do anything to a snake of his size, but he could not do anything to the other party either. The other party saw that the situation was not good and spread its wings to fly high.
If you forced the other party into a corner, they would remember that they had been harassing you while you were hunting. It would be uncomfortable to alarm your prey in advance. If his intelligence was higher and he attacked when he could not resist while eating, the sharp eagle claws would not be for show. He might even fall into the other party’s hands.
Therefore, he was definitely going to suffer a loss.
Just bear with it for now. It would not be too late to take revenge after he became stronger. As the saying went, it was never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
…
Four days later, late at night. The bright moonlight shone on the lush forest. At this moment, the surroundings were quiet. Only the occasional chirping of insects and the occasional rustling symbolized the existence of night creatures in this dense forest.
A pair of glowing eyes suddenly lit up in the darkness. Then, there was an extremely faint sound of swimming. It was the sound of a large snake slithering past.
In the darkness, the snakes stretched their huge bodies and slithered forward. He seemed to have a purpose. Along the way, he tried his best to avoid the moonlight, as if he was afraid of being discovered. He kept moving in a certain direction. Only a few places that he could not avoid revealed the terrifying aspect of this snake.
Its pitch-black scales emitted a metallic luster under the bright moonlight, giving off an extremely hard feeling.
The thick and huge snake’s body had a neck as wide and flat as a cloak. Above the snake’s head, which symbolized danger, there were two small bumps on the two huge pillow scales. It was ferocious and beautiful.
Soon, the snake quietly climbed up a tall tree trunk. He climbed into a huge tree trunk nest. He propped up his upper body that was half the height of a person and stared at the interior of the nest.
Above its nest, under the moonlight. At this moment, an eagle that was more than 50 centimeters tall was sleeping with its head lowered in its chest feathers. It did not know that the Grim Reaper had descended.
This scene was like a beautiful and terrifying scene.
Under the moonlight, the ferocious and huge venomous snake propped up its upper body and stood on the side of the goshawk. It opened its huge snake mouth, and its sharp fangs flickered coldly under the moonlight. The golden poison at the end of its fangs swayed with an intoxicating light.
Under its poisonous fangs was a pitiful eagle that was immersed in its beautiful dream and did not know that death had descended.
