Our neighborhood has been transported again.

Chapter 301 Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
I'll be here for a day this time.

Qin Ziwu and his group were assigned to retrieve the cards from the surrounding altars.

Qin Ziwen then led Du Yu to the riverbank.

The two inspected the traps that had been placed last time.

"My lord, this fish trap has been destroyed." Du Yu pulled a fish trap out of the water.

Water gushed out through the large cracks.

There were bite marks on the edge of the cage.

The wire cage was deformed and twisted, and all the fish inside had escaped.

"This bite is clearly from a crocodile." Qin Ziwen observed for a while and made a judgment at a glance based on the degree of deformation of the cage and the direction of the compression.

Du Yu observed it for a while and exclaimed, "It really is a crocodile."

After inspecting the remaining cages, only two escaped damage.

One reason is that the "air force" (air force) has lost the bait placed inside.

The other reason is because of a snake inside.

It glittered silver, and the scales dazzled my eyes.

When the cage was pulled out from the weed-covered bank, a large silver snake, as thick as a child's arm, was writhing wildly like a hula hoop.

Qin Ziwen's hand trembled, and he almost dropped the cage back.

He glanced at the large snake in the cage and threw out his Insight.

【Extraordinary Silver Thread Serpent: ☆☆☆】

"It really is this thing." Qin Ziwen exclaimed.

Extraordinary, Silver Thread Serpent.

It was the same snake we saw last time.

However, out of caution, Qin Ziwen did not close the cage.

He thought about it carefully, and then he considered the silver-lined snake.

At present, there are already three extraordinary animals that I hunt in my own territory.

The project is 3/10 complete, meeting the minimum requirement of ten extraordinary prey for the construction of the ancient hunting mausoleum.

The silver-thread snake, which had been kept in a cage, was pulled out of the water. Sensing the change in its environment, it rolled around frantically.

Water splashed, and some droplets landed on the back of my hand.

A moment later, a faint pain was felt.

Qin Ziwen frowned, looked down at the back of his hand, where the water droplets had just touched, and it was starting to turn red.

"This snake is so venomous?!"

Qin Ziwen quickly put the cage down.

Water that gets on a snake and then comes off can cause a burning sensation if it gets on the back of your hand.

How potent must the snake's venom be?

No wonder it's an extraordinary snake-like beast.

Qin Ziwen probed the cage with a stick, but before he could even get close, the silver snake launched a fierce counterattack.

Its slender head slammed violently against the cage again and again, its mouth wide open, revealing two ferocious fangs to the air.

"Too fierce." Qin Ziwen frowned.

He was struggling with how to deal with this extraordinary venomous snake. Judging from its current behavior, it was not only extremely venomous, but also incredibly irritable and aggressive.

The consequences could be severe if one is not careful.

"If it were to be kept as a pet, there wouldn't be a suitable building, and most people probably wouldn't have the skill to do so." Du Yu advised his lord against keeping the venomous snake.

Qin Ziwen attempted to communicate with the silver-threaded snake using resonance.

But it had no effect; instead, its aggression intensified.

Left with no other option, Qin Ziwen finally gave the order, "Kill it." If it were kept in the home, it could be secretly used by someone with ulterior motives, or released, and given its speed, it would be extremely dangerous in the home.

After some effort, they finally managed to kill the silver-striped snake through the cage.

After waiting for a while, he repeatedly probed with a stick, and the slender stick just landed near the mouth of the silver snake.

The already dead silver snake suddenly opened its mouth, bit down on the stick, and refused to let go.

Qin Ziwen sighed, "I had long heard that snakes still have nerve reflexes after they die, and that even a decapitated snake can bite and inject venom. It seems that it is indeed true."

It's worth noting that killing the silver snake didn't drop any cards, indicating that outside of the current map, returning to previous maps and hunting beasts won't yield cards; the only way to obtain cards is by searching altars.

After waiting for a long time and repeatedly testing it, I confirmed that it was really cold.

Du Yu then opened the cage, lifted it by the tail, and slowly moved it out. Finally, he grabbed the back of the silver snake's head, clenched his five fingers, and lifted it high, with the silver snake's tail almost touching the ground.

This snake is two and a half meters long.

A hint of surprise flashed in Du Yu's eyes. "My lord, this snake is so light."

"Let me see."

Qin Ziwen took it and found that although the silver-lined snake looked big, it actually weighed less than two pounds. It was very light, which explained its speed.

After extraction, 800 milligrams of venom were finally extracted from the silver-striped snake.

The transparent, viscous venom lay quietly at the bottom of the bottle.

Just looking at this thing made Qin Ziwen's temples throb.

"This stuff is extremely toxic," Qin Ziwen pondered, needing to find a suitable target to test its venom.

If stored for too long, the venom's potency will evaporate.

Qin Ziwen thought about his upcoming trip to the sea, and decided to carry the venom with him in case he needed it.

Qin Ziwen took all the cages back to have them repaired, planning to place them around the area again once they were fixed.

Since there's one silver-striped snake, there might be a second one.

Given the abundance of resources in this forest, the probability of finding a superhuman beast is quite high, and there's a second superhuman beast among them.

After dealing with the venomous snakes.

Qin Ziwen mounted the horned eagle's back, intending to thoroughly explore the surrounding area. If a suitable spot was found, he could try leaving an anchor point so that he could change the starting location next time.

He remembered that downstream from the forest was a plain. Qin Ziwen rode on the back of the eagle, sitting side by side with Du Yu, and flew downstream along the direction of the river.

Several birds were circling low above the trees ahead.

Sensing the approaching harpy eagle, the birds scattered in terror.

"Wow—"

The harpy eagle let out a haughty cry that carried far and wide, silencing everything in its wake. The usually boisterous monkeys on both sides of the river trembled and hid under the tree canopy.

From above, the river below looks like a blue jade ribbon, embedded in the forest.

Downstream, on the gentle river surface, crocodiles float like driftwood, gathering in groups. At a glance, the downstream area has almost become a paradise for crocodiles.

“No wonder the crocodiles keep coming back. Even if you kill so many, they’ll still be coming back upstream soon.” Qin Ziwen understood, and suddenly his eyes narrowed.

As the river gradually widens, this section of the river is almost ten times wider than the section where the residential area is located.

Beneath the vast river, he saw an extremely thick and long black shadow, slowly swimming in an S-shape beneath the surface.

Wherever it passed, the crocodiles scattered.

Judging from its length compared to that of a crocodile, this shadowy creature, which appears to be a giant python, is probably at least thirty meters long.

After wandering around for a while, it darted into the deeper parts of the river and disappeared from sight.

"Hidden talents abound!" Qin Ziwen exclaimed. He suddenly realized that perhaps giant beasts like the giant toad were not uncommon in this forest.

After flying for more than ten minutes, the scenery below suddenly changed, like two distinct lines dividing the dark green forest and the light green grassland in two.

Further away, there is a vast, boundless grassland.
