Chapter 366: Chapter 250: Battle of the Monsters

"Come on! Kill this guy!!"

In the crowd, someone shouted, and no one knew for whom he was cheering, but many people followed suit after hearing him.

The middle-aged policeman turned his head to look that way, realizing that these people were probably cheering for the giant python.

After all, those vines had already attacked the crowd, clearly aligning themselves as the enemy.

And the Fire Python that had just appeared, although it seemed more terrifying, had not attacked any civilians from beginning to end and had even destroyed two vines, naturally gaining more favorable impressions from the people.

However, the middle-aged policeman understood that this didn’t actually prove anything.

The monster was attacking the vines now, seemingly allying itself with him and others, but who could know what its true motives were?

Perhaps, like many animals, the two sides were merely fighting over the right to food.

With so many people now feeling reassured, he didn’t dare to take a risk.

But for now, there was nothing he could do. Everything had to wait for the backup that would arrive later.

Meanwhile, Zhang Xiaoman had successfully used the Fire Python to eliminate the third vine.

However, what dampened his spirits was that the first vine he had burned had regrown from the ground.

Or rather, Zhang Xiaoman had burned only its exposed part, and now with the tip burned off, it naturally had to extend the rest of it.

Moreover, this creature was conducting a sneak attack by using the burning opportunity to hide underground and quietly moving beneath the Fire Python to launch its attack.

Fortunately, he possessed the Spirit Detection Technique, which allowed him to easily sense the movements of the monster. He immediately maneuvered the Fire Python to dodge and then pounced toward an area with more vines.

Biting, crashing, entwining, pulling.

The giant python, like a tiger entering a wolf pack, wreaked havoc among the throng of vines, kicking up mud and scattering stones everywhere.

The crowd could only see a dizzying array of movements as if they were experiencing a blockbuster movie firsthand.

It’s just a pity that all this was silent; neither the vines nor the Fire Python howled, making it a quiet battle.

Underground, vines repeatedly burst forth, attacking the giant python from all directions, yet most were dodged under Zhang Xiaoman’s omniscient view, with only a few hitting, causing minimal damage.

The Fire Python gradually got entangled, as the vines around it grew more numerous.

Dozens of huge thorns, as tall as three to four-story buildings, shot out from underground. Eventually, they became as dense as a jungle, encircling the giant snake tightly, making it difficult to dodge easily.

Some of these vines were the ones previously burned externally and had regrown from underground.

The majority, however, were constantly arriving from the other end of the street, coming to join the battle.

All of this was observed by Zhang Xiaoman. In his Spirit Detection Technique, he could see that the underground of this area was covered in thorns, its scale was so staggering that even he was surprised.

"Looks like the Alien Species behind this can’t sit still anymore, huh? Sending so many minions here, I wonder if it will feel pain if I wipe them all out here..."

With this thought, Zhang Xiaoman’s lips slightly curled up, and then suddenly, his right fingertip glowed with intense red light, and he fiercely pointed forward, drawing a circle in the air.

Following his movements, the Fire Python, which had been surrounded by dozens of vines, suddenly raised its body and then fiercely opened its mouth to spew out a burst of intense flames toward the surroundings.

And just like what Zhang Xiaoman had just done, it also rotated 360 degrees around itself, thoroughly covering all the surrounding vines with flames.

At that moment, even in this silent movie, people seemed to hear the screams of the vines while they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, when they saw the Fire Python being overwhelmed by plants, they thought the giant snake was going to fail, but unexpectedly, it had still hidden this move.

After initiating this attack, Zhang Xiaoman could clearly feel the Dark Energy in his body had noticeably decreased.

Fortunately, he had summoned the Fire Python through Magic Memory this time; there was still a lot of Dark Energy remaining. Otherwise, he truly might have had difficulty sustaining himself through the battle.

A single area-wide Skill completely cleared the area, temporarily erasing all the vines around, leaving nothing but charred earth and broken plant branches.

"Is this, this... Flame Breath?! It’s too powerful! This giant python might just transform into a Flood Dragon!"

"Exactly, exactly, it must be a Fire Element giant python that’s going to transform into a Flame Divine Dragon!"

"We are saved! It must be our Divine Beast, specifically here to exterminate these monsters!"

"..."

Around them, the crowd that was originally fleeing now calmed down, each showing excitement and transforming into onlookers. They didn’t forget to take out their mobile phones and start recording.

"Dadadadadadada..."

In the sky, the sound of helicopter blades came through, and an armed helicopter flew overhead from the distance, dropping small boxes equipped with flamethrowers.

Due to the large crowd, ground support couldn’t make it in the short term, so aerial delivery was the only option.

The middle-aged police officer quickly led people to pick up the boxes from the ground, removing five sets of flamethrowing equipment from them.

Since high-altitude drops were necessary, these boxes were specially made, filled with shock-absorbent material to prevent weapon damage or even explosions of the flamethrowers.

After putting on the new equipment, the middle-aged police officer suddenly looked dumbfounded.

He discovered that aside from the giant snake, there were temporarily no other vines on the scene.

It felt like these flamethrowers were now somewhat useless; surely they couldn’t use them against the Fire Snake?

In the sky, after completing the drops, the helicopter lowered its altitude and then aimed its machine guns at the Flame Giant Python on the ground, ready to attack at any moment.

"Hold your fire for now; so far, this Monster seems to bear us no hostility. Let’s prepare our response measures and first ensure the evacuation of personnel."

Meanwhile, near the Third Research Institute, in a heavily armored giant command vehicle, a square-faced middle-aged man was issuing orders while watching the surveillance footage in front of him.

He was Hu Hu, the director of the Abnormality Department in Qionghua City.

At the moment, he was in the command center with a group of officers from the Azure Dragon Army, coordinating the response to this sudden incident.

Just dealing with the situation at the Three Institutes was already headache-inducing enough, but unexpectedly, Jiangnan Road used for the evacuation was also attacked by monsters.

They had already guessed that the giant plant-type Monster might occupy a large area around it.

But what they hadn’t expected was that the range would be so vast, even affecting East Crossing Street.

"Xiao Liu, what’s the situation; is the survey result out yet?"

Hu Hu turned to ask a young warrior beside him.

The man put down his headset, then moved aside to reveal the computer screen in front of him, showing a survey map of nearby terrain.

"Sir, the results are out; according to the scanning survey, The Monster in the institute is significantly larger than we imagined, its volume underground is at least five times its surface volume! The radius of the covered area is even over one kilometer!!"
