"Don’t scare like that!" Gong Qiang’s whole body was covered in goosebumps. Anyone who knew they were inside the "stomach" of an A-level Magic Plants would feel the sa way. "Then why hasn’t it attacked us?"
"Probably sleeping." Qian Qi glanced at the information that the system panel had just analyzed about the Magic Plants. "It should be nightti outside. They tend to close up their petals and rest."
"So we’re okay then?" Gong Qiang couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Qian Qi chuckled again, "Not necessarily. A-level Magical Beasts that like to eat Poisonous Emperor Lotus might just swallow us whole in the darkness."
Gong Qiang almost tripped over a pit on the ground, "What?"
"So we can only pray that this Poisonous Emperor Lotus is a bit larger..." Just as Qian Qi finished speaking, the already dim surroundings suddenly darkened completely. She let out an "Oh no," "We’re going to be chewed up raw!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the entire live stream screen abruptly darkened.
Imdiately after, an extrely eerie chewing sound started slowly, the strange heavy breathing of the magical beast in the night sent shivers down the viewer’s spines as if they were being shredded by sharp teeth themselves.
[--What happened?! Can soone tell what’s happening?!]
[--Aaaahhhh... are they being chewed alive?]
[--No way! That’s Su Ang! It’s impossible, it can’t be true!]
[--I hope none of them die! Nothing should happen to them!]
The bullet screen madly scrolled, countless people watched the pitch-black, silent live stream, silently praying in their hearts for the group to be safe.
Finally, after a few minutes, the live stream suddenly brightened.
"Damn, this stinky snake hasn’t brushed its teeth in days." Qian Qi’s cursing voice ca through.
The viewers on the live stream could finally see, Brother Dog’s battered figure was dangling mid-air like a trash bag, her fortune-telling banner firmly stuck in a polyp, preventing her from dropping into the bottomless black abyss below.
Not only that, but her other hand was also fiercely holding onto Gong Qiang, Su Ang, Nangong Yan, and the four advance signal team mbers below.
[--Brother Dog! My God, you’re still alive!]
[--Sorry, although it’s a bit inappropriate, this feels like grasshoppers tied to the sa rope, and it kind of makes want to laugh.]
[--Brother Dog has so skills, to hold up seven grown n!]
"Where are we?" Gong Qiang looked around, based on Qian Qi’s previous words, he guessed this should be inside the magical beast.
"If I’m not mistaken, this should be the Poisonous Emperor Python’s esophagus." Qian Qi speculated, her quick reaction just now probably saved her from falling into the python’s stomach.
After she finished speaking, for so reason, she felt the atmosphere around them suddenly beco even more silent.
"What did you just say... what esophagus?"
Gong Qiang’s voice trembled slightly.
Qian Qi: "Poisonous Emperor Python, ah, that’s just a snake-like magical beast."
Su Ang: "Don’t say..."
Qian Qi and Su Ang’s voices overlapped, but it was too late. At the ntion of "snake," Gong Qiang’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
His grip loosened imdiately, and the Defense gloves covered in the Poisonous Emperor Python’s saliva slipped, leaving Qian Qi unguarded, helplessly watching as Gong Qiang, along with Su Ang and others, fell down in a domino effect.
"He has ophidiophobia..." In the empty space, Su Ang’s resigned voice echoed softly.
Qian Qi: ...
The live stream viewers: ...
Qian Qi: Is it my fault?
[--Why is everyone so silent...]
[--Hmm... I’m at a loss for words, after all, he is the successor...]
[--But, did you hear any sound?]
From the screen, the eerie chewing sound ca again, the esophagus swayed along with the Poisonous Emperor Python’s moving activities, Qian Qi looked up at the rained-down Emperor Lotus Fragnts, and helplessly rubbed her forehead.
"I’ll have to wash clothes again when I get back."
Just as she finished speaking, a pile of Emperor Lotus Fragnts fell down with a clatter, even with a Defense Helt, the falling noise made her ears buzz, she stared intently at the fragnts, and finally caught a large black lotus fragnt quickly with her hands.
[--What is Brother Dog grabbing that for?]
[--No idea...]
The live stream viewers closely watched the screen, seeing Qian Qi twist her waist, her legs slightly swinging to wrap around the Snake Stick, her whole body then hung on it, slowly moving to the esophagus wall, bracing her feet against the polyp.
"Phew..." She exhaled gently.
[--What’s Brother Dog going to do?]
[--Is she going to save them?]
In the live stream picture, Brother Dog’s dog suit was already torn beyond recognition, the dog headgear unknown of its whereabouts, revealing the Defense Helt underneath, everyone could even see her determined and bright eyes through the clear panel, as if nothing could defeat her in that precarious position.
That slender figure, arms forcefully pulled the Snake Stick from the polyp.
And without support, she fell down the esophagus.
This Emperor Python was of enormous size, jumping from here was like leaping off a hundred-ter cliff, the live stream viewers hadn’t expected Brother Dog would do sothing so courageous to save others, causing them to be stunned by her valor, their perception of her changed.
As the Poisonous Emperor Python continued feasting, the esophagus walls had already secreted a thick layer of slick black digestive acid, when the python bent down to grab an Emperor Lotus, Qian Qi seized the opportunity to squat down and place the Emperor Lotus Fragnts at her feet, then launched herself a jump, sliding downwards as if she were extre snowboarding down a snowy peak.
This maneuver had the viewers before the screen utterly thrilled.
[--666, this is so epic! First ti seeing a strear surfing in a magical beast’s esophagus!]
[--Has Brother Dog practiced before? Sliding so smoothly?]
[--Sending Brother Dog a big rocket, hope she finds the others soon!]
The live stream audience praised and just as they were about to gift, they saw Qian Qi losing her balance in the next second, tumbling and flipping, falling down the esophagus wall, landing face-first.
"Ouch, damn it, is skiing this hard? But on TV, the skiers are all in this posture!" Qian Qi, with a stunned face up, remarked.
The live stream viewers: ...
So you can’t really ski, huh!
"It must be the Emperor Lotus Fragnt’s fault, it doesn’t have any foot braces." Qian Qi imdiately blad the innocent Emperor Lotus Fragnt, this ti, she beca smart, curling up her body to kneel on the fragnt, using the Snake Stick as a paddle, she went down slowly scrubbing the speed.
Unexpectedly, she didn’t encounter a single person along the way, Qian Qi watched herself helplessly slide to the bottom of the digestive acid pool, floating lonely above the large lake of acid.
Fortunately, the Emperor Lotus Fragnts were not easily digestible, they could temporarily serve as a canoe leaf, Qian Qi paddled with the Snake Stick while avoiding the debris falling above, to prevent being smashed and capsizing into the acid pool.
"Is anyone there?" Qian Qi cleared her throat, shouting, "Su Ang, Nangong Yan, are you there?"
Her voice echoed in the gastric cavity but received no response for a long while.
Qian Qi turned and looked everywhere, in the empty gastric cavity, the only sounds were debris continuously falling into the acid pool, a hollow void, as if she was the only one in this world.
