Chapter 27 Reunion, Worries
At this moment, Cheng Feng could no longer feel the pain. He stomped hard on the snake mother's chest and pulled himself off her claws.
It slammed onto the sand with a thud, and blood flowed from the open wounds on both sides.
Without time to think, Cheng Feng, clutching his wound, sat up and looked at the Snake Mother.
Black blood dripped down the sword from the snake mother's mouth as she raised her arm, seemingly trying to pull the sword out of her mouth.
But it soon slumped down limply, lying on its back, its body twitching under the sunlight.
'Ding~ The mission to eliminate the Snake Mother has been completed.'
Do you want to claim the reward?
The system notification sounded, and Cheng Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the sand dune.
The sunlight fell on Cheng Feng's blood-stained face, making him feel warm.
With the death of the snake mother, the surrounding Pure Vision Agamas also lost the courage to fight against Cheng Feng's bloodline.
They fled into the darkness in a panic, and soon all that remained were snake corpses scattered everywhere.
Because of excessive blood loss, Cheng Feng felt extremely sleepy and wanted to close his eyes and fall asleep.
But he knew that if he fell asleep like that, he might never wake up again.
Cheng Feng, who was swaying precariously, sat up and looked at the wound on his abdomen.
But he found that the wound had stopped bleeding in those few dozen seconds, which cheered Cheng Feng up.
"This body is inhumanly strong; it seems he's not going to die."
Thinking it over, Cheng Feng felt his pocket and took out the few cigarettes he had left.
With trembling hands, he lit a cigarette for himself.
The pain-free buff from adrenaline has worn off.
Cheng Feng felt that apart from the area around his weak points, there wasn't a single spot on his body that wasn't in pain.
After smoking a cigarette, Cheng Feng felt he had regained some strength.
He immediately slid down the sand pile and returned to the temple.
Cheng Feng raised his hand and placed it on the rubble beside him, using the strength in his hand to slowly stand up.
Then he walked unsteadily toward the altar.
The road was littered with snake corpses, and even those that weren't quite dead stopped moving as Cheng Feng approached.
What should have been a short walk took Cheng Feng a full ten minutes to complete.
Meanwhile, below the mechanism, Yang Xueli, Hu Bayi, and the others all looked solemn.
They could vaguely hear noises coming from above.
There were unknown roars, and the sound of sharp objects cutting through stone.
"What on earth did Cheng Feng do to cause such a commotion?"
Wang Pangzi paced anxiously, constantly glancing towards the control room, his anxiety evident in his expression.
Hu Bayi also had a solemn expression. Judging from the movements, what Cheng Feng was facing must be terrifying.
"We can't wait any longer, Fatty. Take out the explosives we picked up from those corpses and see if we can blow up this mechanism."
Yang Xueli stood up and said to Fatty Wang in a deep voice.
Without saying a word, Fatty Wang took off his backpack and pulled out a bomb.
“We can’t use explosives. If they explode, the temple above could collapse, and Cheng Feng would be in even more danger.”
Upon seeing this, Hu Bayi quickly said...
Fatty Wang angrily threw down his backpack and said, "Old Hu, think of a way."
"Don't rush, wait a little longer. There's no movement up there. If Cheng Feng is alright, he should open the mechanism."
Hu Bayi's words calmed everyone down temporarily, and they began to wait anxiously.
At this moment, Cheng Feng had returned to the innermost part of the temple and was leaning against the altar where the jade eyeballs were displayed.
He retrieved his backpack from the snake carcass and took out the last bottle of camel milk wine.
goo go go go...
After drinking half a bottle in one gulp, Cheng Feng looked down at his wound. Fortunately, the platelets were strong enough to prevent leakage.
"The difficulty of obtaining this Pangolin Cave Armor is outrageous. Hopefully, it's worth the price!"
Considering that he would have to meet up with everyone later, Cheng Feng did not immediately claim the reward.
The cave-dwelling beetle is not very useful here, as there is no place to dig a hole for the time being.
After calming down for a while, Cheng Feng put the remaining milk wine back into his backpack.
With difficulty, he turned around and began to rotate the altar.
Five clockwise rotations followed by one counter-clockwise rotation, and with a click, the mechanism starts.
The steps slowly descended, revealing a passage leading downwards.
"Cheng Feng!"
They heard the voices of Yang Xueli and others coming from below.
Soon, everyone ran up from below and saw Cheng Feng, who was covered in tatters and blood.
A dozen minutes later, Cheng Feng leaned against the soft sleeping bag, shirtless.
Without saying a word, Yang Xueli wrapped the bandage around Cheng Feng's abdominal wound.
Everyone else ran to the temple entrance to see the enormous corpse of the snake mother.
"Thank you, Ms. Yang, I feel much better."
After Yang Xueli finished bandaging, Cheng Feng stretched a bit and then said with a smile.
Yang Xueli did not reply, but simply applied iodine solution little by little to Cheng Feng's wounds.
Those fangs of the Pure Land Āgama were sharp; a slight pull would leave a cut. Cheng Feng had been bitten countless times during this battle.
My body is almost completely covered in sores.
"Take off your pants."
Yang Xueli, holding cotton swabs and medicine, spoke.
Cheng Feng quickly tightened his belt and said with a dry laugh, "No need, I don't think this potion will be of much use to me."
Yang Xueli thought about it and agreed. If it were anyone else, let alone being bitten so many times, an ordinary person wouldn't survive more than three seconds after just one bite.
Why won't you let us help?
Yang Xueli's eyes were filled with indignation, her thin lips were bloodless, and she questioned Cheng Feng.
Cheng Feng smiled but did not answer. He understood that with Hu Bayi and the others helping him, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation.
However, the target of the mission may die at the hands of others, in which case not only will the jade be damaged in vain, but the mission will also be impossible to complete.
"Fine, don't tell me then. You're injured like this, so you should rest well!"
After saying that, Yang Xueli put away the medicine, took out portable fuel from her backpack, and prepared to start a fire.
After a while, Professor Chen and the others returned under the protection of Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang.
It's worth mentioning that each of them was holding one of Cheng Feng's shirts.
It's stained with Cheng Feng's blood. With this stuff on it, we're not afraid that Jingjian Ahan might suddenly run out and give everyone a taste.
"Brother, you're absolutely amazing! You even managed to kill that monster that was over four meters tall."
Fatty Wang held the Zhanlu sword that Cheng Feng hadn't had time to retrieve and said to Cheng Feng.
Everyone else was also quite shocked.
They got goosebumps just looking at that thing; if it were alive, they probably wouldn't be able to move their legs.
"Brother Cheng, although you meant well by sparing us from danger, I still have to say a few words to you."
"You're treating us like outsiders. Even if we're not as skilled as you, our weapons are no joke."
Hu Bayi looked displeased, dissatisfied with Cheng Feng's behavior in facing the monster.
"Old Hu is right. Even if we can't kill this monster with a gun, I still have explosives!"
Fatty Wang followed up.
