A day had passed since they arrived at Stormy Island.
The army did not continue to advance. Instead, the soldiers widened the area of their camp. The surrounding trees were cut down. They also dug many deep tunnels and equipped the insides with sharp wood. This kind of trap was exhausting and time-consuming to build, but it was very effective.
Of course, to prevent possible violence from beasts, a simple defensive wall had been built around the camp.
At night, the entire campsite would be filled with bonfires.
Under most circumstances, this would deter the magical beasts from attacking them.
Although the magical beasts possessed magic and were more intelligent than wild beasts, it was natural that they were afraid of fire.
But when players saw the fire, their eyes lit up. They wanted to shoot an arrow at the fire. Luckily, none of them did so. If they had, the prince would have taught them a lesson.
“Royal Highness, food is not a problem for now. This island is surrounded by storms; but there are many sea beasts in the water. They can be the source of our food. Including the rations we brought, we can survive for three months.” Nox jogged over and reported to William.
William nodded. He was not worried at all. He knew that the problem was not food, it was how to continue developing. This island was one-third of the surface area of the southeast region. The place they had landed was the place closest to the Thunder Warhorses. He did not plan on moving.
The prince rubbed his chin and thought about it. “Go and do what you need to do. On your way, call Lautner and Burned Cinder over.”
“Yes!”
Not long after.
William saw the two of them running over while sweating profusely. Building a campsite was physical work. Other than the Lord, everyone had to work.
The players were the main force…
For a moment, William regretted not bringing more players. After all, as long as they received experience, they would do their best at work.
“Lord.”
“Hm, you should rest. After that, follow me to explore the situation ahead.” William knew that the territory of the giant silver-backed monkeys was in front of them. He did not dare to rashly advance.
Lautner and Burned Cinder looked at each other. Lautner picked up a bottle of alcohol and started drinking. Burned Cinder took out some roasted meat from somewhere and started to eat. But just as Burned Cinder was about to eat, he smiled and looked at William. Then, he carefully tore off a piece of meat and passed it to William…
The prince decisively rejected.
Where in the world did you get that roasted meat from…
Some players saw this and could not help but gasp in shock. Was this some form of philosophy?
Luckily, no one took it seriously.
After all, they all knew that the prince was taking care of a princess.
But at this moment.
An accident occurred.
A player had been slacking off. He was resting in the fields when he suddenly screamed…
Then, the screaming stopped.
The players revived at the campsite…
A giant python slowly appeared in front of everyone. Having a length of about eight or nine meters, it was as thick as a barrel, and white scales covered all of its body.Read comics on our webnovel.live
When it raised its head, everyone else could only look over.
Many players gasped in shock.
It was a level 65 cloud-gulping python, a high leveled boss!
“Retreat. Everyone, retreat!” Lautner threw his alcohol bottle away and shouted.
But some players still attacked.
Arrows and battle energy struck the giant python, but it did not cause any damage. They did not even leave a dent on its scales.
William silently cursed. He watched the cloud-gulping python charge into the crowd. He immediately faced the python. Two Thunder Blades appeared in his hand, and he started attacking.
Roar!
The cloud-gulping python suddenly turned and widened its mouth at William. A visible sound wave immediately sent William flying. His body looked like a kite whose string had snapped, and he slammed into a giant tree.
The strength of the cloud-gulping python was shocking. It quickly moved its body and was about to swallow William whole.
But Burned Cinder and Lautner jumped forth at the same time. Battle energy and an inferno pillar inflicted great damage on it.
At this moment, William also charged forth. He jumped and then slashed the Thunder Blade at the python’s stomach.
Pfff.
Blood splattered all over the ground.
An electric arc engulfed the body of the python.
The next moment.
William sheathed his swords. Lightning no longer flashed. He slowly walked away from the giant python.
When William landed, the giant python also collapsed on the ground. Its body twisted, turned, and rolled…
In a few breaths,
The level 65 magical beast had died.
The players could not help but gulp. Not even a few seconds had passed!
But they had seen it. They saw the scales that could not be sliced through, as well as the heart within the scales.
Some players had recorded the scene. When they looked at the footage again, they realized that when the heart of the giant python had been cut open, and an electric current flowed into the heart and stopped it…
Hence,
When the giant python was slashed, it was dead.
The rolling was a nervous reaction after it died.
“So precise?” Forever Alone gulped. Had the prince been struck by the sound wave on accident?
“As expected of the city lord. He killed a magical beast with 80 to 90 thousand Health in one attack. How fierce…” The players were still cheering over this victory. They were going to have another feast today. After all, they would earn experience. They might even gain some attributes.
But William deeply pondered.
The south was evidently the territory of the giant silver-backed monkeys.
Rationally, cloud-gulping pythons should not appear here.
“Did I come too early? Is the territory of the cloud-gulping pythons ahead?” William suddenly thought of the pythons. He could not help but swallow hard.
He decided not to wait. He would explore by himself.
Burned Cinder and Lautner would guard the campsite.
At that moment, some players wanted to follow along. William glanced at Angry Fatty. He seemed lost in thought as he nodded. “You all are still weak. Be careful when you follow me. Don’t shoot rashly.”
“Yes, yes, I already disciplined those who attacked just now. Royal Highness, you do not need to worry about this happening.” Chu Liuqiu nodded his head.
Therefore,
Chu Liuqiu, Forever Alone, Changli Jiuge, Angry Fatty, and Xiao Ayin followed William to explore.
It was simple to manage when there were a few people.
There was no need to open up the path in all directions.
Furthermore, cloud-gulping pythons often traveled here.
They could choose to follow the paths that they took. This also saved them the trouble of having to open up roads.
Half an hour passed,
After William and the rest walked for four to five kilometers, they saw a shocking scene.
It was a battlefield.
It was a battlefield of giant monkeys and giant pythons.
The surrounding trees and brook had been broken. Massive corpses filled the area.
A giant silver-backed monkey that was over ten meters tall held the corpse of a ten-meter long python. It wildly swung it around and attacked the other giant pythons.
Some giant pythons could not avoid the attack. And when the corpse hit them, they were sent flying, and the trees along the way destroyed. Their scales dropped off, and they were covered in blood.
A giant python, stretching seven to eight meters, charged towards the giant monkey. But the monkey roared and bit the head of the giant python…
Crack.
Crack…
The giant python instantly became a headless python.
The war continued.
The leader was a massive monkey. It was extremely viscous. It was like a mini King Kong…
“Damn. Who can stop them?” Angry Fatty gulped.
William pretended not to hear him. He picked his eyebrows.
But…
The others slowly turned to look at him…
“…” William’s heart ached. Why did this feel familiar?
