Chapter 165: Chapter 165: Wailing

Bai Yifan quickly put down the spicy hot pot he was about to start cooking, covered the freshly made milk powder with a cup lid, and dashed to the driver’s seat in one swift motion.

He floored the accelerator, causing the bus to lurch forward and charge ahead.

The leading Water Python seemed to have a vendetta against the bus, hissing as it chased after it.

Its dozens of Giant Python underlings stormed into the safe haven, scattering in all directions.

Within less than a minute, screams echoed from within the safe haven.

“What a big snake!”

“Help!”

…

The residents of the living area were once again terrified, scattering in all directions to escape.

Due to Fan Tangtang’s incident, the Superpower Users at the safe haven were spread out in various corners.

The moment the Giant Python entered the safe haven, they had already noticed.

But the number of Mutated Giant Pythons was just too many; their barrel-thick bodies were incredibly formidable, with many in the First Rank Mutation stage.

Currently, within the safe haven, Second Rank Superpower Users were considered to be quite outstanding.

First Rank Superpower Users were at a disadvantage compared to First Rank Mutated Giant Pythons.

It’s akin to how an ordinary person might struggle to kill a regular python as thick as their waist barehanded.

The living area was in chaos, with the Superpower Users quickly gathering together to launch a joint attack on the Mutated Giant Pythons.

The most frenetic spot was around the bus.

Behind the bus, the most powerful Mutated Giant Python was in pursuit, along with several smaller underlings helping their leader.

Purple lightning struck the Giant Python, and its green skin turned charred black, causing it to go berserk.

Bai Anhai grabbed Bai Xiqin, who was about to climb out, and said, “Don’t be afraid, daddy’s here, just stay put.”

In Bai Anhai’s eyes, no matter how strong his daughter was, she was still that soft and cute little girl.

After saying this, Bai An quickly climbed onto the roof of the bus from the window.

His posture was handsome, and his movements were swift.

It was his bus, and he was going to protect it.

A bus worth decades of imprisonment couldn’t be wrecked by a giant green python.

Bai Anhai wielded Thunder and Fire Dual Ability, sending flames entwined with purple lightning crashing onto the Giant Python.

“Hiss――”

The Giant Python let out a cry of pain.

Bai Anhai was a Second Rank Superpower User, and Leng Yebai was a Third Rank Peak Superpower User. Together, they overwhelmed the Mutated Giant Python.

Seeing purple lightning about to strike it again, the Giant Python quickly dashed off in one direction.

Its massive body lifted dust as it swiftly left the bus behind.

“Xiao Fan, stop the bus!”

Bai Anhai stomped his foot.

The bus came to a sudden halt, causing Bai Anhai and Leng Yebai to stagger and support each other to avoid falling.

After the bus stopped, Bai Anhai and Leng Yebai exchanged glances.

They both ran towards the crowd being chased by the Giant Python.

As long as they’re in the safe haven, they can’t just watch survivors get swallowed by the Giant Pythons.

Purple lightning and flames fell on some of the Giant Pythons, startling the survivors on the verge of being caught into fleeing in a panic.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Gunshots rang in their ears.

Bai Xiqin wielded steel needles, quickly slaying the nearby Giant Python under the golden dusk light.

Bai Xiqin looked towards the source of the gunfire—it was Captain Zhu.

Captain Zhu was originally a police captain from S City. When the apocalypse broke out, he escaped with Uncle Wang and a convoy to the wind farm.

Due to an attack by a horde of mutant rats, that place, barely considered a small safe haven, was destroyed.

Now, Captain Zhu, like them, had arrived here and become one of the captains establishing the top ten safe havens.

He was armed with firearms and ammunition, and with the Mutated Giant Pythons invading the safe haven and Superpower Users at a disadvantage, he resolutely used the guns and ammo.

Bai Xiqin got off the bus and went over to a deceased Mutated Giant Python, bending over to inspect its head.

This was a First Rank Mutated Giant Python, with a barrel-like body that appeared immense, showing a faint outline of a person at its waist.

It had already devoured a human.

There was no movement from its abdomen, and the person it swallowed was already dead. The python’s mouth was full of venom that could kill prey in an instant.

There was a tiny, barely noticeable hole in its head caused by Bai Xiqin’s steel needle.

Bai Xiqin frowned at its gaping mouth.

There was no black blood inside the mouth, indicating that they hadn’t devoured any zombies.

They were Mutated Giant Pythons, and before the apocalypse, this species of Giant Python had a gentle nature.

After mutating, they hadn’t devoured zombies, indicating they still retained a gentle nature, so why did they suddenly band together and charge into the safe haven?

Moreover, in this warm weather, Giant Pythons don’t usually live together and aren’t considered social animals.

The gunfire was unrelenting, and the impact of the bullets effortlessly pierced the Giant Python’s temple.

Within less than half an hour, all the Giant Pythons were shot and killed.

Only that Second Rank Mutated Water Python, with its massive body emanating a faint yellow glow, stubbornly resisted the bullet assault.

The Gold Ability protected its head from the bullets, yet it was still heavily wounded.

The crowd had already scattered and fled. In the empty safe zone, the Second Rank Mutated Giant Python let out a menacing hiss.

This was an anger coming from the depths of its soul.

Bai Anhai and Leng Yebai stood by as Captain Zhu and his men took control of the situation with their guns, choosing not to intervene further.

They also sensed the overwhelming anger emanating from the Mutated Giant Python.

A Second Rank Mutant Animal already had the intelligence of a few-year-old child.

The sound of gunfire continued from Captain Zhu’s gun, one bullet after another hitting the Second Rank Mutated Giant Python.

Small bullet holes began to appear on the green body of the Mutated Giant Python, revealing red liquid underneath.

It didn’t sway its massive body to break through the wall and escape.

Instead, it painfully crawled towards a corner of the living area.

Occasionally, it passed by the corpses of other Mutated Giant Pythons, emitting a mournful hiss.

“Bang!”

A bullet charged straight at the Mutated Giant Python’s head, the faint yellow glow just barely deflecting the assault, leaving a shallow wound.

“Hiss――”

The Mutated Giant Python wailed towards a corner, its cold eyes radiating a monumental hatred.

Bai Anhai glanced at the Mutated Giant Python and then at Captain Zhu, who was continuously shooting, wanting to say something but hesitated.

The Mutated Giant Python seemed somewhat pitiable, but this was no time for sympathy.

This was the harsh reality of the apocalypse—either humans died, or Mutant Animals did.

This was already much better; if it were a zombie invasion, even more people would perish.

The Mutated Giant Python ignored Captain Zhu, trudging painfully towards a corner.

Captain Zhu kept shooting with a stoic expression, his calm eyes showing a firm resolve.

“Hiss hiss――”

The Mutated Giant Python let out a mournful cry, dragging its battered body to a corner of the living area.

Its massive body was covered in bullet holes, and if it weren’t for its Second Rank Gold Ability, it would have died under the hail of bullets long ago.

“Bang bang bang!”

Another three gunshots rang out, and bullets embedded themselves in the Mutated Giant Python’s green skin, causing red blood to spurt out instantly.

Blood gushed from the mouth of the Giant Python, but it didn’t even glance at Captain Zhu, using its battered head to laboriously dig at the ground.

The soil was dyed crimson by the blood from the Mutated Giant Python’s body. The red earth was pushed aside by the python’s scarred tail.
