165. New species (1)
The Voyager, a steam-powered ship sailed on the wide Maraha River in Sharoman, upstream, alarming a giant python that also advanced upstream. It is more than 20 feet long and is covered with dark golden scales, thick and slender.
Fortunately, facing a ship that was more than three times its length, it did not launch an attack, but just sank slowly to the bottom of the river.
"Strange, when did this type of python appear in the primitive rainforest of Sharoman? I have never seen it in "Sarroman Primitive Forest Biological Encyclopedia". Before I came, I made quite sufficient information preparation."
On the deck, a middle-aged man said to his companion in a strange tone: "And, when I saw it just now, I seemed to see the most outstanding dancer eight days ago, and almost jumped off the deck and had a kiss with it."
The middle-aged man touched his forehead and felt scared. He knew very well that if he really jumped down, the tongue kiss would most likely turn into a real snake kiss.
His companion, a bald head, nearly six feet and eight inches tall, with a tangled muscle, wearing combat short sleeves, a pair of black tight short sleeves, and brown combat pants and leather boots on the bottom, mercilessly mocked: "You can't help it after only eight days when we entered the rainforest? To be honest, man, you need to comfort yourself, just tonight."
"There are so many extraordinary powers now. The last giant dragon in the world degenerated into a big lizard four centuries ago, and was listed as an endangered protected species by the government along with the stone degenerated Titans. If you go to the capital, you might be able to see them in the reserve. They are the only twelve dragon lizards and stone people left in the world. God knows when it will completely extinction."
"Really, I didn't lie to you!"
"Come on, Gehry, maybe you can talk to Dr. Bagher, I think he will be interested if you really don't have hallucinations."
"Give me aside, I don't want to face him." The middle-aged man's face changed drastically, and he quickly changed his words, "You are right, maybe it's really an illusion."
Dr. Bagel, who was mentioned by both, was the person in charge of the Voyager mission. A goblin less than 4 feet tall, with green skin, two pointed and big ears, a hooked nose and a pair of big feet. He was also the owner of the ship. Another goblin, the partner of engineer Brack, had an extremely vigorous desire to study that could almost be described as perverts.
To be honest, they are human mercenaries who know some magic and martial arts at least, but the goblins represented by Dr. Bagel and the engineer Brack are the veritable ruling class in this world, and they are more or less confident.
The most important thing is that neither goblin has a good temper.
Therefore, middle-aged men quickly threw this matter behind their heads, accompanied by doubts such as "usually anaconda lurking on the river bank, shallow water, rather than giant pythons."
It was probably the arrangement of fate. A few minutes later, the sharp-eyed middle-aged man saw a poisonous snake on a tall palm tree, which also had dark golden scales.
Before he could be confused about something wrong, another dark golden luster caught his attention under the reflection of the sun. It was a giant python slowly crawling forward on the shore.
The moment he saw it, the middle-aged man seemed to see the flirtatious and coquettish dancer eight days ago, and of course that night when the battle was fierce.
"Ralph, look over there."
In order to prove that he had not lie just now and did not have hallucinations because he had been holding it in for too long, he patted his companion on the shoulder and pointed at the giant python.
When the bald man heard this, he looked at him with disdain, then surprised, widened his eyes, as if he saw something incredible. Five seconds later, he turned to the middle-aged man and said, "Hey, you are right. It really has extraordinary power. I seemed to have really met my wife Jenny just now. This matter must be reported immediately. You are here to watch it, and I will go to see Dr. Bagel."
One minute later, the deck.
"Nature is so amazing that it has spawned a new species with extraordinary power in this rare primeval forest."
A goblin wearing a three-piece suit stood on a stool holding a telescope and carefully observed the giant python on the river bank, gasping heavily, making people unable to tell whether it was aroused by the giant python or whether it was about to be satisfied simply because of the desire to study.
"Catch it and live."
Of course, two human mercenaries were the first to take action.
The middle-aged man recited a spell in his mouth and made a move to the river. On the banks of the river, a trace of clear river water merged into the already wet soil and flowed backwards on the shore. There was almost no sound, and it gradually flowed to the giant python, and then it suddenly rushed out and turned into a total of sixteen streams of water. Before the latter reacted, he wrapped around it.
"Ralph!"
The 15-foot-long giant python struggled violently on the shore. It had a lot of strength and broke the water flow controlled by the middle-aged man several times.
"receive!"
The bald man also recited a spell in his mouth, controlling the vines everywhere in the rain forest to stretch out slender and flexible vines to weave them into thicker and stronger ropes, and cooperated with his companions to further tie up the giant python that was caught off guard and entangled by the water.
Half a minute later, there were thirty-two streams of water and thirty-seven ropes on the giant python's body, and gradually stopped struggling.
Goblin Bagel looked at the two human mercenaries with satisfaction. Sometimes, the magic was really good, and of course, far from being as good as goblin engineering.
At the same time, the real armed force of the Voyager, a group of well-equipped goblins, took out the net gun and completely captured the giant python.
"Okay!" Bagel was very satisfied. Who would have thought that he would have such a reward before entering the depths of the rainforest to reach his destination. "Hurry, drag the python onto the boat, I will study it carefully."
When the giant python was dragged halfway through the river, another giant python suddenly rushed out of the Mara River and kept biting the high-strength nylon mesh.
When he saw another giant python, the goblin was not surprised but happy. It was saving its peers and a new species with extraordinary power and certain wisdom at the same time. He was about to become famous!
However, before the goblins carrying live ammunition on the ship had time to fire any anesthesia bombs or mesh, they could not ignore rustling and hissing sounds came from the depths of the mysterious and vast dense forests on both sides of the Malaa River. The former was the sound of poisonous snakes and giant pythons wandering among the forests, trees and dead branches, and the latter was the natural sounds of snake letters one after another.
"alert!"
"Snakes, so many snakes! How come there are so many snakes!"
"Is it a snake disaster?"
Viper snakes, giant pythons, poisonous snakes, giant pythons covered with dark golden scales swam out from the depths of the rainforest as if a tide was emerging, climbing on the branches, wandering among the grass, lingering on the vines, densely packed, thousands, everywhere.
