48 Hours a Day Novel Chapter 1108 - Black Calamity

Chapter 1108: Black Calamity

If Zhang Heng had encountered this huge wave before his trip to the island, he probably wouldn’t have had any other choice but to retreat. However, now that he had grasped the basics of controlling the water flow, he could still handle this small situation, although he might not be as powerful as the deepwater overlords like Jengard.

Zhang Heng used his ability to control water to split the wave into two, brushing past his body and hitting the trees and plants behind him. In the end, the flowers that had been blooming were all destroyed by the oncoming wave. However, Zhang Heng, who was standing in front, was safe and sound.

The black python was obviously surprised as well. Although it didn’t seem to understand how the human before it could separate the wave, that didn’t stop it from doing what it was about to do next.

After it fell into the water, the black python didn’t stay in for long, imdiately swimming towards the shore. Although its huge body weakened its agility to a certain extent, its straight-line speed was greatly enhanced. When it moved, it was like a high-speed train. It didn’t need to plan its path as well. Regardless of coral or reef, nothing could block its path. It was rcilessly crushed.

At that mont, it was like a moving black catastrophe!

Zhang Heng took a few steps back, but he was not intimidated by the opponent’s imposing manner. He had already prepared himself after all, once he realized who his opponent was. Zhang Heng was already ntally prepared. For now, other than the Paris Arrow, everything was useless. The rest didn’t stray too far beyond Zhang Heng’s expectations. He had only retreated to drag Jengard as far as possible from the water.

Since normal arrows could not penetrate the black python’s scales, Zhang Heng temporarily put away the Pestilence Bone Bow and pulled out the Hidden Scabbard from his waist. This was the only weapon he could rely on for the rest of the battle.

In the blink of an eye, the head of the black python had already reached the shore. The next thing that ca out of the water was its huge body. When its abdon touched the ground, the entire island started to shake.

Zhang Heng seed to have lost his balance due to the sudden earthquake. Of course, the black python wouldn’t let go of this rare opportunity. Half of its body had just reached the shore, and it could not wait to reach its head over.

Normally, when a python was on the hunt, it would first approach its prey. After opening its mouth to bite the target, it would quickly coil its body around the target. By forcefully squeezing and cutting off blood supply, the target’s brain and heart would beco ischemic. This would cause the target to quickly lose the ability to resist and then slowly swallow the target.

However, Jengard was simply too big. It might have been able to use this thod to deal with the sperm whale at the bottom of the sea, but against Zhang Heng, it would be unrealistic for it to wrap its body around the target. However, this did not cause it any trouble. Without even adjusting its posture, Jengard charged straight at Zhang Heng, who had lost his balance.

Considering its shocking weight, even if Zhang Heng had not turned into a at paste, most of his bones would still be intact.

However, in the next mont, the black python suddenly realized that it had lost sight of Zhang Heng.

Its head pressed down on a patch of flowers. Not only did it destroy the plants growing inside, but it had also knocked down a few nearby trees. However, the human who had provoked it was nowhere to be seen.

The black python turned its yellow pupils and used the dimple between its nostrils and eyes to lock onto Zhang Heng’s position. To its surprise, the target that had been unstable not too long ago actually dodged its attack.

Not only was the black python fast, but considering the size of its head, Zhang Heng would need to move at least five ters to escape its attack range.

This ant that not only did the monster have to be explosive, but it even regained control of its body. The black python realized that it had been fooled by this rude human again, causing the fire in its eyes to burn even brighter. It chased after the monster without hesitation.

On the other hand, Zhang Heng was unprecedentedly calm after entering combat mode. Although he still had ti to complete at least one counterattack when dodging the monster’s attack, Zhang Heng was not in a hurry to make a move. This was because the body of the giant black python had not yet completely left the sea and crawled back to land.

If the situation was unfavorable for the giant black python, it would most likely turn around and swim back to the sea. It would be difficult for Zhang Heng to find it again. In that case, he would still be unable to solve the problem of the tunnel circulation; returning to the surface, Zhang Heng still hoped to lure the giant black python back to the surface. It was best to stay as far away from the sea as possible, so up until now, his actions had been mainly focused on dodging.

The man and snake chased each other and returned to the garden. However, this ti, the plants along the way were all destroyed. Almost all the plants in the path of the Black Python were destroyed and crushed. The garden was no longer as peaceful as it used to be.

However, after chasing it for a while, the snake suddenly stopped for so reason. It turned around to look at the path it had crawled through, and a rare look of apprehension appeared in its eyes. At that mont, it was like a child who suddenly realized that they had done sothing wrong.

Zhang Heng did not know why the giant python was so concerned about the garden, but from the looks of it, it seed to be hesitating if it should continue chasing it. Zhang Heng then did so calculations and realized that the two of them were about 500 ters away from the reef. Of course, this distance could not be considered safe, but at the very least, Jengard could not turn around and return to the sea.

In order to avoid any further accidents, Zhang Heng finally stopped in his tracks.

The man and the snake fell into a stalemate, and this ti, Zhang Heng made the first move.

It was obvious that Jengard didn’t expect the target, who was originally in a sorry state, to take the initiative to attack it. However, this was exactly what it wanted. Subconsciously, it wanted to sweep its tail at Zhang Heng, but when it saw the flowers and trees around it, it stopped in its tracks.

In the end, it decided to et Zhang Heng with its head. It swung its head at Zhang Heng once more, and this ti, Jengard finally saw how Zhang Heng managed to dodge its trump card. The latter’s body suddenly switched from high-speed movent to a static state. Then, it suddenly exerted force in the opposite direction, and in just one second, it actually completed the change in direction.

The whole process was not a waste of ti. It was a perfect transition from movent to static to movent. This also ant that Zhang Heng’s control over his muscles had reached a state where he could do whatever he wanted.
