Chapter 35: Toad Turns into Giant Python
Xie Yaoyao and Meng Xi's original plan was to sneak in, with Xie Yaoyao attracting the Witch's attention head-on, and then Meng Xi would erupt and strike to heavily wound the Witch.
Because judging from the Witch's entries, she wasn't a BOSS type with powerful vitality.
Now that their tracks had been inadvertently revealed by Lilisi, they could only deal with it head-on.
Just as Xie Yaoyao was looking around for where the voice that kept cursing them was coming from, the short-tempered Lilisi couldn't help but start spraying.
"Shut up, you disgusting toad. The one who betrayed the Witch is this Werewolf beside us, and Helai'er and I never pledged loyalty to the Witch."
Hearing Lilisi's words, Xie Yaoyao finally noticed a fat toad that kept making noise.
And this toad was currently perched on the top of the Witch's staff, passionately spraying back at Lilisi on Xie Yaoyao's shoulder!
"Enough!"
The Witch's low, hoarse voice immediately made the two animals, who were arguing happily, stop.
She slammed the magic wand in her hand heavily onto the ground, and the toad on the tip of the staff was so frightened by this sudden attack that it almost fell off, and could only shut up and hold tightly onto the Witch's wand.
"Lilisi, although you and Helai'er haven't pledged loyalty to me, that is not a reason for you to bring enemies to me. You know I don't like being disturbed, especially now."
Looking at the crow on his shoulder who was almost burying her bird head into her wings, Xie Yaoyao couldn't help but find it a bit funny.
From the first moment he met her, this little guy had been short-tempered and fought everyone, and he had never seen her look so cowardly before.
"Respected Witch, I think you've misunderstood. Lilisi didn't lead us here. In fact, Brother Meng is quite familiar with the path to your place. Right, Brother Meng!"
As he spoke, Xie Yaoyao patted the Werewolf's shoulder beside him, looking like they were buddies.
Only looking at Meng Xi's gloomy expression, it was clear he didn't want to deal with him.
The Witch's cold gaze swept over the two, finally settling on Meng Xi.
"Traitor, you should know what I added to the bloodline potion I gave you. Even so, you still betrayed me. Should I say, as expected of a Traveler?"
His muscular body expanded, hard black fur burst out of his skin, and his mouth full of sharp teeth became even sharper and more conducive to tearing as his upper and lower jaws elongated.
"Old hag, since you know the style of Travelers, you shouldn't have done such a stupid thing. I will get the antidote for the poison from your corpse."
"Sigh!"
Xie Yaoyao sighed, helped Owen to a tree nearby, and then pulled out the 【Roarer】 from his back, saying helplessly.
"It's you people who have ruined the good reputation of Travelers!"
"Shut up, Linghu Chong! Kill her before the Witch starts the ritual! If it weren't for that stupid crow of yours, we wouldn't be in such a passive position!"
Meng Xi's original plan was to lurk beside the Witch, and when the Witch started the ritual, he would trick Xie Yaoyao into making a move and then kill this hateful newcomer in one fell swoop. If the Witch didn't start the ritual, he would follow the plan and ambush the Witch.
Now that their tracks had been revealed by Lilisi, he could only attack the Witch head-on. He knew very well the power of purple entries, not to mention that this BOSS had three purple entries.
"Charge!"
The Werewolf was covered in blood mist, turning into a blood shadow as he rushed toward the Witch.
This Witch clearly didn't excel at close combat, so closing the distance was the best approach.
Xie Yaoyao didn't dare to be negligent and followed with his gun; this was not the time to sell out his teammate.
If he provoked Meng Xi to quit now, both of them would fail and be cleared from the plot map. Relying on himself alone, he definitely couldn't beat this three-purple BOSS.
Watching the two charging over, the Witch didn't panic at all.
After a cold sneer, she took out two potions from her bosom, one green and one purple.
The Witch grabbed the toad on the magic wand and poured the purple potion into it.
Seeing that toad turn dizzy as if drunk in the blink of an eye, with purple bubbles constantly spitting out of its big mouth.
The Witch didn't care about that and casually threw the drunk toad at the two charging men.
The toad flying in the air rapidly elongated and grew larger, and in the blink of an eye, a fat toad turned into a giant python as thick as a water bucket.
"Holy crap, what kind of potion is this, is it that awesome?"
No, Xie Yaoyao immediately remembered what Lilisi said about the Witch's items, it was the Transformation Technique of that ruby ring.
Then that potion...
After the giant python hit the ground, it immediately opened its giant mouth and spat a mouthful of purple phlegm at the two.
Scaring the two into dodging left and right.
The phlegm landed on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, it corroded a large pit into the gravel-paved ground, and eerie purple toxic gas kept rising from the large pit.
Holy crap, this is too terrifying!
If you got even a little bit of this stuff on you, I guess even your bones would melt away!
The Werewolf over there charged fast; although he dodged the venom attack, the giant python's thick tail whipped at him like a giant whip.
The Werewolf's tall and strong body flew out spinning, hitting the ground three or five times in a row, and finally crashed heavily into a large tree before stopping.
Seeing this scene, Xie Yaoyao immediately thought of skipping stones on the riverbank when he was a child.
"Damn it! Linghu Chong, are you here to watch a show?"
"Ah! Sorry, sorry! It's mainly because your flying posture was too cool, it makes one unable to help but be impressed!"
How could Xie Yaoyao dare to delay any longer? He raised the hunting rifle in his hand and fired.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Although the giant python's snake scales were extremely tough, it couldn't completely immune the damage of the 【Roarer】.
Sure enough, Xie Yaoyao's attack attracted the giant python's attention, and it turned its head and spat another mouthful of phlegm.
"Holy crap!"
Fortunately, Xie Yaoyao had mastered the essence of the "Lazy Donkey Rolling" stunt, and at the last moment, he barely avoided this mouthful of venom.
But that giant python wouldn't give Xie Yaoyao a chance to catch his breath. After a mouthful of venom, it immediately pounced, determined to swallow this human who had hurt it before it would be satisfied.
Facing the behemoth pouncing over, Xie Yaoyao naturally wouldn't try to be a hero.
He turned and ran while firing at the snake's head.
Fortunately, the giant python was afraid that the lead bullets would hurt its eyes, so it shook its huge snake head left and right to dodge, which meant it couldn't charge at full speed, giving Xie Yaoyao a chance to escape.
Watching Xie Yaoyao and Meng Xi being beaten by the giant python so they couldn't even lift their heads, the Witch couldn't help but sneer again.
She then turned and walked toward the back of the house, and as she left, she casually threw the remaining bottle of green potion in her hand at her feet.
The glass bottle shattered instantly, and the green potion inside seeped into the soil and disappeared.
"Not good! Linghu Chong, Little Red Riding Hood must be trapped somewhere behind the house by the Witch. She must be going to hold the magic ritual right now, we have to hurry and stop her!"
Xie Yaoyao rolled to dodge the giant python's thick tail again, then turned and fired a shot.
"I know that too, damn it! This beast is so powerful, what can I do?" ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
