This sort of thing doesn’t require Lin Jingzhan to remind them too much; everyone in both teams knows how to handle it.
Having been on the island for so many years and killed countless Giant Pythons, they naturally know where its weak points are.
But this one, in terms of its size, indeed exceeds their imagination.
The mbers of the two teams rushed forward to attack, not holding back anything, even using every ounce of strength they had.
Ah—
A scream of agony, a mber of Poker was knocked away by the Giant Python’s tail, spat blood, and imdiately passed out.
"Quick, save him!" Diamond A Monica said.
She was responsible for dical work within the team, so this was down to her.
Soon, under Monica’s directions, the injured were carried away.
Seeing the situation was not good, Song Jinmin and Moon stopped watching and went up to help, finally managing to thoroughly kill the Giant Python.
"Let’s carry this thing out first."
Bit by bit, everyone carried the Giant Python outside the Stone Gate.
With a simple asure, it turned out to be over 25 ters long.
In Lin Yi’s impression, the longest land Giant Pythons are about 14 ters.
Yet this one in front of them was over 10 ters longer, akin to a creature from a fantasy novel.
"No wonder it can block knives; its scales are dense and hard. When you chop, the force is quite diminished, making it nearly impossible to inflict harm," Jiang Zhengnan said.
"Have you seen such a large Giant Python during exploration?"
Song Jinmin shook his head, "I’ve seen one about 20 ters, not as robust as this one, and with different scale texture."
"Based on past experience, it could be that the magnetic field inside the cave is not the sa as elsewhere, causing this situation, but it probably has certain special traits, not much reference value," Luyu Teahouse said.
"But these ruins have been sealed for countless years; it’s unlikely for such creatures to survive," Ace of Spades said.
"Maybe there are other paths." Moon said:
"Below the Mirror Path is water; maybe there’s an entrance to the ruin in so riverbed."
Moon’s speculation was agreed upon by everyone.
In their subconscious, it was impossible for life to survive in sealed ruins.
During this whole process, Lin Yi remained silent, not speaking a word.
The Giant Python made him recall encountering a Brown Bear in the jungle days before.
The Brown Bear’s size was larger and fiercer than he had imagined.
In so ways, it was similar to the Giant Python in front of them.
Their bodies were much larger, with more exaggerated features.
All creatures could roughly be classified into three categories.
One kind is ordinary land creatures.
The second kind lives on Tilia Island’s ordinary creatures.
In a high-oxygen environnt, creatures grow gigantic, which is the most conspicuous feature.
However, the Giant Python in front, and the Brown Bear encountered earlier, belonged to the third kind.
Their bodies had evolved to another level, even beyond human imagination.
"What are you thinking? Why so silent?" Luyu Teahouse asked.
"It’s sowhat incredible; creatures this large exist in the world."
"I was a bit scared too. Had your father not saved , I would have ended up in its belly," Luyu Teahouse said:
"Worthy of being an S-Class expert, truly powerful."
Luyu Teahouse wasn’t just flattering.
Both she and Lin Yi clearly knew that if it were Flam Dragon’s people encountering this beast alone, at least half would need to be sacrificed to escape.
Fla Dragon’s people efficiently took so important structures from the Giant Python in preparation for experints later.
"Sister Yu, can you ask soone to skin the snake?"
"What do you want?"
"To make a bag for my wife. Such good snake skin would be a pity to waste."
"Do you even need to skin it? Just take a piece."
"No, I have many wives, one piece is not enough."
"You’re really impossible."
"I’ll make one for your mom too," Lin Jingzhan said.
Song Jinmin: ...
"Let’s go, continue working."
Lin Jingzhan called out, and the two teams were once again ard and ready, crossing the Stone Gate to reach the front of the Mirror Path.
This ti, everyone observed more closely.
The Crystal Stone was about ten centiters thick, very hard in texture.
Seeing the gap left by the Giant Python, everyone shivered with fear.
It must take trendous force to shatter such thick Crystal Stone!
Aside from people like Lin Jingzhan and Song Jinmin, ordinary A-level experts would definitely find it hard to handle.
Furthermore, everyone observed that beneath the Mirror Path it was indeed water, still and unmoving, like being frozen in ti.
"Moon, you lead people across first; I’ll cover the rear."
Moon nodded, leading the team to one side, slowly crossing from places without fractures.
This ti, everything went smoothly, with over fifty people successively passing through the Mirror Path without other incidents.
The road ahead was deep and about three to four ters wide, but appeared extrely winding, no one knew what lay concealed behind.
This ti, Lin Jingzhan led with Song Jinmin at the front, with Moon and Lin Yi covering the rear.
But Lin Yi did not idle talk with this alluring mature woman, keeping his focus on the walls on both sides.
This place was unlike any other he had been to; besides the starting Mirror Path, it was just uneven rocks, offering no novelty.
Apart from the initial Mirror Path, there was nothing impressive discovered.
If not calling it ruins, it would seem more like an ordinary cave.
Lin Yi held a scalpel, slashing at the rocks.
They were extrely hard, even the quality of the scalpel left no mark.
The group’s pace was very slow, fearing they’d encounter traps here.
"There’s nothing much to see here, not all ruins have murals,"
Moon seemingly read Lin Yi’s mind and said.
"What do you think caused it?"
"Based on discovered items, places having murals generally have things inside that are fairly ordinary."
Lin Yi looked at Moon with a hint of surprise.
"So you’re saying there’s possibly sothing even more peculiar here? Or a high-end native technology?"
"It’s possible, but don’t get too excited too soon, many things are beyond our control; many of us died in places like these."
"Understood."
Lin Yi nodded, silently gazing ahead, his heart rate accelerated, and he too looked forward to the mysterious and unknown ahead.
"We’ve arrived!" Song Jinmin suddenly said at the front.
