Chapter 259: Chapter 259: Dragon Pool! An unexpected situation!
Dragon Pool, located in Enyang City of Jiangbei Province, was somewhat well-known locally because it was said that people had seen a water monster in the pool. Moreover, these claims were made with great confidence and certainty.
Not only that, but indeed, many strange incidents had occurred in Dragon Pool, and some people had even died consecutively, making the pool even more enigmatic.
The villagers living nearby considered the area of Dragon Pool a forbidden zone and would not visit it unless necessary.
"Mr. Su, those villagers have demonized Dragon Pool, saying there’s a man-eating water monster there. But according to my investigation, there’s actually a giant python in the pool. However, this python has truly become something supernatural, elusive and exceptionally powerful. I nearly fell for it last time."
Huang Qingyu accompanied Su Luo to the vicinity of Dragon Pool, also sharing with him what he knew.
"A giant python?"
Su Luo frowned.
What kind of giant python could nearly cause trouble for Huang Qingyu, a Ninth-Grade Grandmaster, to the extent that he would dare to harvest the Dragon Saliva Grass only after reaching the strength of a Great Grandmaster?
Thinking this, Su Luo and Huang Qingyu quickened their pace towards Dragon Pool.
An hour later.
Su Luo could see from afar, a waterfall cascading down, and beneath that waterfall was a huge pool as large as a soccer field.
"Mr. Su, that is the Dragon Pool."
Huang Qingyu immediately said.
Approaching Dragon Pool with Huang Qingyu, Su Luo’s Divine Sense also probed outward, wanting to locate the giant python that Huang Qingyu mentioned.
However, Su Luo’s Divine Sense survey revealed nothing.
In the waters of Dragon Pool, not to mention a giant python, not even a living fish or shrimp was discovered.
"Something’s not right."
Su Luo’s brow slightly furrowed. If it were true as Huang Qingyu had said, that there was a giant python in Dragon Pool, then there should also be other creatures in the pool, at least the python’s food, instead of it being like a pond of dead water with no sign of life, as it was now.
This was very illogical.
Soon, Su Luo noticed some traces of battle, and even many bullet holes and casings scattered around.
Furthermore, there were some bloodstains.
"Mr. Su, the... the Dragon Saliva Grass is gone!"
While Su Luo was sensing something amiss, Huang Qingyu’s face also changed. If the Dragon Saliva Grass was missing, would Su Luo think that Huang Qingyu was deceiving him and make a move to kill him?
"I swear, when I came here last year, the Dragon Saliva Grass was still growing next to the waterfall, guarded by that giant python..." Huang Qingyu hurriedly explained.
Su Luo interrupted him, "It seems we’re a step too late, someone else has gotten there first."
"What?" Huang Qingyu’s face changed drastically. He finally paid attention to the surroundings and quickly caught sight of some unusual traces.
Damn!
Huang Qingyu cursed inwardly.
Even though he did not know who was responsible, he still cursed the perpetrator’s ancestors in his heart for taking the Dragon Saliva Grass before him, which was tantamount to taking his life.
Huang Qingyu looked at Su Luo somewhat fearfully.
However.
Just at that moment, both Su Luo and Huang Qingyu heard some noises, and their gazes immediately turned toward a direction on the right.
"Follow me."
Immediately, Su Luo pushed Huang Qingyu, hurrying at the fastest speed toward that direction.
About five minutes later.
Su Luo and Huang Qingyu then saw a group of people besieging a giant serpent.
"That’s the serpent."
Huang Qingyu immediately told Su Luo, proving he hadn’t lied.
What kind of giant serpent is this? This is clearly a Jiao!
Su Luo gave Huang Qingyu a cold look, feeling that, with the knowledge of Huang Qingyu as an elder of the Medicine God Temple, it should be impossible for him not to distinguish between a python and a Jiao. Yet, Huang Qingyu had told him that the water monster in the Dragon Pool was a giant python, which made it difficult for Su Luo not to suspect that Huang Qingyu had ill intentions.
If he had really believed Huang Qingyu, thinking it was just a giant python and had gone to pick the Dragon Saliva Grass, a misjudgment could have cost him his life in the jaws of this Jiao.
However.
Right now, Su Luo didn’t have time to argue with Huang Qingyu.
Because he had already seen that the Jiao was severely wounded.
"Three Grandmasters!"
"Rocket launcher!"
"Automatic rifles!"
"Hand grenades!"
"Flamethrowers!"
"Crossbows!"
"Electromagnetic guns!"
"And... poison!"
Su Luo’s expression turned unsightly as he observed that the team attacking the Jiao, made up of more than twenty people, was armed with various weapons, which could be described as superbly equipped.
But Su Luo immediately noticed that what truly posed a lethal threat to the Jiao was likely that poison.
In addition, if Su Luo’s judgment was correct, the Jiao had just shed its skin, making it a period of extreme weakness, giving those people the chance they needed.
Jiaos could transform into dragons, but that required continuous metamorphosis, and molting was one of the processes.
Su Luo truly hadn’t expected that in today’s Earth, he would still witness the existence of a Jiao, and moreover, one that was attempting to transform into a dragon.
"And, an egg?"
As Su Luo’s Divine Sense swept over, he quickly noticed that the heavily injured Jiao was coiling its body around an egg the size of a basketball.
"Hmm?"
Just as Su Luo was using his Divine Sense to explore, he suddenly felt a wave of Divine Sense fluctuating towards him.
Could it be... the Jiao?
It was... asking for help?
Su Luo was shocked.
He hadn’t expected the Jiao to send out a wave of Divine Sense, which surprised him greatly and began to differ from his understanding of modern society.
However, even though he was still in modern society on Earth, whether it was martial artists, the Medicine God Temple, the Dragon Soul Chamber of Commerce, or things like the Blood Fiend Needle and the Storage Ring, all were indicating that this world was completely different from what he had known as an ordinary person before.
Therefore, Su Luo only felt momentary astonishment.
But before he could communicate with the Jiao, the team besieging it had already noticed the presence of Su Luo and Huang Qingyu, and one of the women looked towards them immediately, "Who are you? Skulking around, are you seeking death?"
