CHAPTER 182: CHAPTER 180: MILLENNIUM SERPENT!!

Somalia Peninsula, seemingly calm. But in reality, undercurrents are surging since the day Xiao Tian was rescued by the Mysterious Man, three days have quietly passed.

In Raindrop’s base in Somalia, all members have been dispatched to search for Xiao Tian across the entire region, but three days have passed without a hint of news.

Inside the Raindrop base, the five members of Star River were discussing the matter. Eliminating Xiao Tian was a task issued by the organization, but unexpectedly, the duck that was almost in their mouths was snatched away by someone else, making the atmosphere in the base quite tense.

The few people clearly understood the organization’s style of doing things. If Xiao Tian escapes this time, they would face severe punishment, even having their four-star officer status directly revoked.

"It’s already been three days, where has this kid run off to?" Star Desire, sitting by the table, angrily knocked on it as he spoke.

If the matter continues to drag on and the headquarters finds out, it would be troublesome.

Compared to Star Desire, Star River Dao was not as anxious. He leaned back in his chair, took a sip of his coffee, and calmly said, "What’s the rush? The organization didn’t say Xiao Tian had such a helper, the issue isn’t entirely with us. Moreover, Somalia is just a tiny place, I’ve already controlled all the exiting channels in Somalia, whether airports, stations, or ports, they are all under our watch. Even with wings, he couldn’t fly out!"

Several others nodded in agreement and started drafting the follow-up search plan.

----

In the southern tropical rainforest of Somalia, this place is an uninhabited area, with treacherous terrain, consistently hot weather, and ample rainfall throughout the year.

One by one, the dense African trees allow no sunlight to penetrate, creating little dots of light scattered throughout the forest.

The suitable environment nurtures numerous fierce beasts, rarely visited by people. Once, a well-equipped ten-person team ventured in to shoot a documentary but never came out again.

Right in the depths of the rainforest, Xiao Tian is lying under a big tree. His eyes are tightly shut, his expression is pained, and his entire body is wrapped in bandages. Around him, coagulated blood can be clearly seen.

It has been three days, but Xiao Tian remains in a coma. The black-clothed man beside him was also frowning.

This man was Ghost Face, who had been secretly following Xiao Tian all along! And three days ago, it was he who rescued Xiao Tian.

However, the current situation is not reassuring. Xiao Tian has several knife wounds on his body, which have become severely inflamed. According to Ghost Face’s observation, all Xiao Tian’s wounds have a strong chemical toxin.

Even using anti-poison agents was futile; Xiao Tian’s wounds showed no sign of improvement. Coupled with various internal and external injuries he received before, and physical exhaustion, Xiao Tian is now in an extremely dangerous state.

Ghost Face rummaged through his medical box, having used almost all the available agents. He underestimated Xiao Tian’s injuries, and with each day of Xiao Tian’s coma, his danger level increases.

"Heh, now the entire Somalia is looking for the both of us. If you die, I won’t get away either. I’m no match for those five guys."

Ghost Face excels in high-tech, strength is not his speciality!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh.

Just as Ghost Face was worrying, a rustling sound behind him caught his attention, seemingly a sound coming from the friction against the ground.

Ghost Face pondered for a moment and then cautiously looked ahead. To his surprise, on the big tree in front of him, a patterned giant python was coiled!

The giant python was entirely white, its gaze sharp as if searching for prey.

"This is..."

Ghost Face dared not breathe deeply, observing the patterns on the giant python closely.

"Triangles mean a hundred years, pentagons mean five hundred years... hexagons mean—one thousand years!!"

When Ghost Face clearly saw the colorful patterns on the python, he gasped.

"It’s a millennium old Green Python! To appear in such a place!"

According to what he knew, this type of python is a renowned battle serpent. Even when facing countless venomous snakes, it shows no fear, swallowing them whole.

The most terrifying aspect of the Green Python is its regenerative ability. Inside its body, it secretes a special fluid that protects it from any toxic attacks during combat. This fluid can absorb other snake poisons and then excrete them from its body!

Moreover, the bile of the Green Python is a miracle cure for various incurable poisons. Countless wealthy individuals have spent their entire fortunes for a bowl of bile!

Ghost Face looked at the python with a face full of greed.

He couldn’t help but lick his lips and said, "With this, things become much easier!"

Saying that, Ghost Face took out the short knife he carried and began approaching the python step by step from behind, hoping to obtain the Snake Gallbladder without a direct confrontation, which would be ideal.

Ghost Face was extremely tense, moving forward one step at a time. Just a little further, he could rush forward and slash the python’s head off with one strike!

He was confident in his speed.

"Hiss hiss."

However, things did not go as planned. Just as Ghost Face was ready to attack, the massive Green Python suddenly turned its head, biting directly onto Ghost Face’s arm.

"Crack."

The python bit down forcefully, and the next moment a strange shriek followed. The python’s teeth instantly shattered, accompanied by streams of blood flowing out.

The python widened its eyes in disbelief, feeling as if it had bitten into a piece of iron! Its steel-like teeth were broken.

The next moment, bangs sounded continuously from inside the python’s mouth, as countless bullets pierced through its head. In a blink of an eye, the python went limp, collapsing to the ground.

Ghost Face smugly pulled his arm out of the python’s mouth, revealing that the clothing on his arm was shredded, but what was exposed beneath was not a human arm, but a pitch-black metallic pipe!

The metallic pipe bore countless small holes, from which wisps of smoke emanated.

It was from these openings that the bullets were fired, ending the python’s life.

Ghost Face chuckled proudly and pressed a switch on his arm. Instantly, the black metal arm spun twice, and its skin-simulating device gradually covered its surface, making it look indistinguishable from a real arm.

Ghost Face located the right spot, took out a short knife, and made several cuts on the python, extracting the warm Snake Gallbladder.

He took out a transparent plastic box from his medical kit and squeezed the bile completely into it until the box was filled with dark green bile.

Ghost Face walked over to the comatose Xiao Tian and unhesitatingly poured the bile into his mouth.

"If this doesn’t save you, you can only blame your bad luck."
