American Horror Story

Chapter 114 Quetzalcoatl Form! Luke's Hunt!
Although the giant python looked a bit scary, it was still within Luke's expectations. After all, the somewhat weird woman had told him about it before.

However, he was still very surprised that the other party could actually speak and obviously had intelligence comparable to that of humans.

Logically speaking, even if an animal with no social life and living in a small mountain valley has an IQ comparable to that of a human due to some kind of adventure, it would definitely not behave like this.

Is it because of life in a zoo, or stealing human brains?

Luke guessed in his mind, but he couldn't be sure what the other party's situation was.

However, since it can speak and communicate, there is no harm in chatting for a while. What if, cough, what if the previous legends are all misunderstandings, what if it can turn into White Snake?
If you can't be Ning Caichen, you can also be Xu Xian.

The Thompson brothers were also surprised. This kind of monster that could communicate and would not attack people upon meeting them had only been seen in individual humans transformed into monsters. Even if Silas's ability got out of control, he might be permanently transformed into Bigfoot. If he was lucky, he would become a rational monster, similar to the snake woman in front of him.

If you are unlucky, you will become a pure brainless Bigfoot.

Alex's thoughts flashed through his mind. He put these boring fantasies behind him and asked, "Three students came here to explore a week ago. Have you seen them?"

The python coiled up its body, and its charming face swayed along with its body, and replied: "Hmm~ It seems there are, three boys."

Alex was delighted. Seeing the python's answer, he wondered if the children were still alive.
In fact, he didn't have much hope. He just wanted to find the body of the child if possible and kill the murderer who killed them, and then he would have completed the mission.

He nodded and asked anxiously, "That's them, where are they now?"

"They," the beautiful snake said in a long tone, "They stayed in Snake Valley for less than half a day before they were accidentally frightened by someone and left through the other side."

The tip of its tail pointed at the dense forest behind it and continued, "Their tents are still there. If you want to see them, follow me."

After saying this, the snake stretched out its body and pretended to meander towards the tent, turning back to signal the three to follow.

Faced with such a friendly monster, Alex felt much more relaxed. He didn't ask any more questions. After exchanging glances with his brother, he retracted his shadow and prepared to go to the front with the basilisk to take a look.

Silas' body also began to shrink, gradually returning from the form of a white-haired Bigfoot to a normal human form.

Luke didn't plan to look for anyone, but the current situation didn't make it easy to fight, so he decided to go and see what was going on.

The three followed the giant python, following the snake path created by its body, and headed deep into the woods.

Further back, the scarred woman who had stopped Luke before caught up with them from a distance. Seeing the three people following the python into the depths of the jungle, she was anxious and hesitated for a moment with a frown on her face. Finally, she made up her mind, rushed out of the bushes, and shouted in their direction: "Don't go! It's dangerous! Don't be bewitched by her!"

Ok?
Hearing the sound, Luke turned around sharply and saw the scarred woman.

I didn't expect that she could chase me here.

And the danger she mentioned?

yes.?

Luke turned around and saw that the python that was leading the way in front also turned around and looked at him and the Thompson brothers. Her originally gentle face was filled with anger. She opened her mouth wide and roared at the scarred woman, and her tongue, which was originally the same as that of a human, turned back into the forked shape of a snake.

"Bitch! How dare you ruin my business!"

Seeing this scene, Luke shuddered violently as if a bucket of cold water was poured down on his head. The mental power that had been suppressed in his mind overflowed to all parts of his body, expelling all the infections from the outside world.

Fuck!
There's something wrong with this snake monster. How could I have believed it so easily!

Luke looked at the basilisk, then quickly glanced at the Thompson brothers. There seemed to be some doubt in their eyes, but they still hadn't broken free from the basilisk's bewitchment.

Dry!
If this basilisk isn’t level three, I’ll just eat it!
After the beautiful snake hissed at the scarred woman, it turned its attention to Luke, as if it knew he had broken free from control. Its entire body stood up high, and the narrow vertical pupils in its amber eyes suddenly enlarged. Correspondingly, the Thompson brothers seemed to have completely lost control of their bodies and stood still.

Watching the giant python rushing towards the three of them, with his two teammates being held tightly, Luke took a deep breath and blew in the direction of the giant python. A huge flame surged out in the direction of his breath.

The center of the flame was a blazing white light, surrounded by dancing orange and red, forming a winding shape, dancing in the air, like a living winged feathered serpent, pouncing towards the giant python.

After spitting out the fire snake, Luke grabbed two demon hunters, one in each hand, lightly tapped his toes, and under the influence of the power of the sky, he flew backwards. In two breaths, he arrived next to the scarred woman.

Scar Woman was not too surprised to see Luke's ability. The first time she saw Luke, she vaguely sensed the surging power in his body, otherwise she would not have been easily scared away.

At this time, the fire snake summoned by Luke had been torn into pieces by the beauty python, and the python did not have many injuries or abnormalities except that its scales were slightly blackened.

After the python lost its control, it immediately chased after them. Luke didn't have any skills to break free, and he felt anxious as he looked at the two people who were still in a daze.

It's a bit cumbersome to carry it with you, but you can't just throw it away. At least you can get it when you are in a desperate situation.

As Luke continued to retreat, he recalled his abilities, and suddenly an idea lit up his eyes. That skill might be able to remove the mental control!
He used a small amount of mental power to trigger a skill that he hadn't used for a long time.

Toothache surgery!
"hiss!!!!!"

Alex let out a long inhalation that seemed to suck all the air away from Luke, then he came out of his daze and held his cheeks.

Before he could say anything, he realized what had just happened. His experience as a senior demon hunter allowed him to quickly get into the state. Several shadows extended outwards from under his body and directly connected with the shadow under the giant python.

As he moved, the giant python seemed to be tripped by something, and its movements became slow and stiff. Luke suddenly opened up a considerable distance between them.

"Run faster! It's guarding that fruit tree, so it won't chase you too far."

Fruit trees?

Are there any natural treasures?
Luke was a little nervous at first, but after hearing this, he began to get excited.

The treasures of heaven, materials and earth are inhabited by the virtuous.

I, Lu, am a very virtuous person.

As he was thinking about it, he didn't stop and released the cooled [Toothache Technique] again.

"hiss!!!!!"

As expected of brothers, the tone, strength and duration of their “hiss” are exactly the same.

Silas, who had just regained consciousness, asked in panic, "What happened?" Alex stretched out a little shadow and knocked him hard on the head, "What happened? You've been tricked! Hurry up and transform!"

The younger brother, who didn't know what was going on, responded with his head down. When he looked up again, he was already in the form of an angry white-haired Bigfoot. However, the mark that Alex had branded on him was still there, so he was not so angry that he lost his mind.

Now that all three of them have returned to normal, why not give him a shot?
Luke said as he ran, "It should be a third-level snake demon. I think I can fight it."

Alex frowned in thought, but his bellicosity brother stopped in his tracks and began charging in the opposite direction upon hearing that he could fight.

"Will win!"

The white-haired Bigfoot roared and rushed towards the giant python that was more than ten times bigger than himself. Alex, who was still thinking, had to stop and control the shadow to condense a thick layer of black armor on his brother. At the same time, he condensed other shadows into sharp arrows and shot them at the python's face without scales.

This guy is such a bad boy!

Luke sighed and stopped, revealing [Molten Gold] and [Spirit Fang] at the same time.

Huh? What happened?

The scarred woman who was running away suddenly noticed that everyone around her had stopped and some were even turning back to charge forward.

The woman stopped and fell into deep thought.
A blazing fireball followed behind Bigfoot, but it was the first to arrive and exploded on the python's body. The [Spirit Fangs] hidden in it then pierced into the python's scales.

Although it only penetrated a small part and failed to penetrate, it was also unable to use the frantic wind blade to expand the results. Even because the wound was too small, the bleeding effect of the "bite" was not so effective.

However, the poisonous effect of the diamond rattlesnake attached to [Spirit Fang] has already entered the python's body through the wound. The neurotoxins and blood coagulant toxins in the snake venom will penetrate into its entire body along with the python's violent movements. Even if it is limited by the level suppression and cannot produce fatal effects, it is enough to restrict its movements and cause it considerable trouble.

A strong physique could directly purify the toxins in the body. The [Spirit Fang] was just half embedded in it, and Luke simply did not take it back. He let the [Spirit Fang] stay there, continuing to maintain the effect of the toxin.

After the flames, the charging Bigfoot also came to the side of the giant python.

Silas's extraordinary enhancement not only makes his brain dumber, but also has no other abilities, only pure physical enhancement.

Correspondingly, his physique is really tough and strong enough.

"boom!"

The giant python that emerged from the flames swung its tail and hit Silas hard, but the kinetic energy of his charge, coupled with the obstruction of his thick white fur and the shadow armor, actually blocked the tail swing.

Not only that, the sharp claws on his hands found a gap between the layers of scales and dug in. Then he tightly hugged the tip of the tail, exerted strength from his waist and abdomen, and dragged it hard behind him, as if he wanted to throw the giant python over his shoulder.

Luke and Alex watched in amazement from behind.

"Has he always been so brave?" Luke asked the shadow manipulator beside him, "Doesn't he know that the giant python will have the death coil?"

"Well, he is less intelligent after his transformation, but fortunately..."

At this time, the giant python had followed Silas's force and began to wrap around him in circles.

However, Alex was not in a hurry. He controlled the shadows around Silas and let them flow out like melted water under the pressure of the giant python, and even Silas, who was entangled, escaped.

At this time, Alex finished his words: "Fortunately, my ability is very versatile, and I can help him make up for it."

So this pair of demon hunters is composed of the younger brother who is a reckless berserker who charges forward, and the older brother who is responsible for control/shield/displacement, etc.

This makes sense.

Luke observed for a moment. Apart from the bewitching power, the giant python didn't seem to have any other extraordinary abilities. However, its body was quite strong. Apart from the bewitching power, it seemed like a melee fighter.

As the diamond rattlesnake venom gradually took effect, the python's speed and strength were greatly reduced. Bigfoot, which was originally in danger from the python's attack, was in a much better situation, at least he would not be entangled anymore.

However, its ability to attack is a bit poor. Faced with the python's hard scales and strong muscle tissue, Bigfoot feels a bit at a loss as to where to start.

During this time, Luke also greeted it from afar several times with fireballs of various forms, but unfortunately the giant python had concealed its reverse scale very well, and the defensive capabilities of its other scales, although not enough to completely ignore the damage of fire, but some minor injuries would not cause it much trouble.

Damn!

Even among the third-level creatures Luke had encountered, this giant python was a very powerful existence and could not be compared with an ordinary third-level creature.

At least its defense is several times stronger than that of that embarrassing Tooth Fairy.

In that case, let's try the power of the new form!
[Molten Gold] is not just a staff that enhances the power of fire, and [Sunfire] is not just a weak flame that can only be used for long-range bombing.

In Luke's hands, the highly compressed condensed flame was much hotter than the weak and feeble explosion flame that flew far away.

He mobilized all the mental power in his body and transformed it all into the power of Quetzalcoatl. The huge and gorgeous fire feathers reappeared behind Luke, and a layer of red flames covered his body like armor.

Although he has only three minutes of combat power when he activates Quetzalcoatl form, just like Ultraman, he will enter a dangerous state of exhaustion after returning to normal form.

But with the "Holy Bond" given by the church, its recovery effect can allow Luke to quickly get rid of the exhausted state and restore most of his combat power.

So the Quetzalcoatl form isn't that dangerous.

With a slight flap of his wings, Luke soared into the sky and flew above the jungle. The shadow of a huge feathered serpent briefly appeared behind Luke and then disappeared.

Under the shock of the feathered serpent, the giant python in the jungle felt a sense of crisis, and a sense of impending doom emerged in its mind. It exerted its power of charm to the extreme, and bewitched Luke with a voice: "Stop! No more fighting! I have a treasure for you!"

However, this time Luke, who was well prepared in Quetzalcoatl form, had a cold heart and was not affected at all. After rising to the highest point, he condensed a more than two-meter-long highly condensed fire blade on the top of the [Molten Gold], and with the blessing of the "Power of the Sky", he fell rapidly.

The python was anxious, and despite being restrained by the power of the sky, it still moved freely and swung its tail to throw the obstructing Bigfoot aside. After that, its body was covered with a layer of green light, and it lay on the ground, condensing all the green light into its tail, and rushed towards the knife.

"puff"

The tip of the giant python's tail was cut off by a knife, but Luke didn't feel good either. The tremendous force and the strange green light made his blood boil. He suffered some internal injuries and vomited a mouthful of dirty blood.
