Damn those guys! I hope they die on the second floor!
Those still fighting the python were furious upon realizing they were just cannon fodder. The one who spoke hated Ando and his group so much he could have vomited three liters of blood.
Ando played his hand well. Who would have thought soone from such a prestigious, well-known group would behave so dishonorably, taking his people and running away while leaving everyone else to die.
The crowd was angry, but there was nothing they could do. Unless they could give chase and follow him to the second floor, there was no way to settle the account. As it was, they were all stuck on the first floor, so they could do nothing but curse in their hearts.
So they all cursed Ando, but his actions made them realize sothing. This wasnt about killing the python, this was about making it to the second floor.
Several more people entered the water, and miraculously a few were able to make it through. The python wasnt stupid though. It turned around and returned to the water to block the entrance.
How could the adventurers allow that to happen? Magicians and sword masters attacked with renewed vigor, but their efforts didnt pay off.
The python slid back into the water and looked at them disdainfully. Did these bugs really think they could get through its territory that easily?
Lets go! We wont be able to progress if we dont kill it! Soone gave voice to the thought going through everyones minds. One by one, they used the most lethal attacks they knew, hoping to kill the python as soon as possible.
Elena avoided another water attack and retreated to Feng Wu and Yifus side. She whispered, The Blackwater python is too strong for us to kill, so well go for the bottom of the pond at the first opportunity.
Based on her fighting experience, Elena could tell the python was not an ordinary beast. In order to kill it, they would need people much stronger than those around. With the current situation, they may as well just hand themselves on a platter to the python to eat.
This point cant be stressed enough. They were too weak to take out the python. They were only alive because the python was toying with them. These people thought they could kill the python then leave? Dream on!
Drew happened to also retreat to the Feng Wus side, and so he heard Elenas words. He agreed with her. They had to find a way to dive to the bottom of the pond, or they would be stuck on the floor forever.
Elena wasnt the only person who realized this. Anyone with half a brain would be able to figure it out. They were thinking the sa thing: find a way to dive and escape.
Many people were hit after the last attack. The n were nearly frozen, but alive. The won were unlucky; they were completely frozen.
Now! Elena yelled. Feng Wu and Drew sprang forward, following behind her. Yifu, though afraid, gritted her teeth and chased after them with her wand in hand.
The world was full of sounds: weapons hitting the python, magic in the air, magical energy explosions. It was chaotic as battle grew more fierce.
Elena was surprised the python completely ignored them. She thought she and Feng Wu would have to fight to clear a pathway, so this was good. Hopefully it wouldnt rember them partway.
Though it ignored Elena and her group, the python did not neglect the other adventurers. It gave everyone else a horrible ti and more people fell. Screams filled the air, yet they failed to leave even a single scratch on the python. It was a trendous failure for the adventurers.
Elenas nerves nearly gave way as she reached closer to the python and the shore of the pond. They were so close. At this distance there would be no place to hide. Fortunately the python didnt seem like it had any interest in them. It hadnt even given Feng Wu a single glance.
The python was rciless against everyone else, releasing its water attack indiscriminately. It felt good about Feng Wu and had wanted to leave her alone. Unexpectedly a few ants followed close to her, so it decided to leave them alone as well. The python didnt really mind since there were so many other little bugs for it to play with.
Elena managed to pass the Blackwater python. She turned around to hurry the others along when the python turned its gaze to Feng Wu. This scared Elena half to death. She was afraid it would attack.
Yifu and Drew were also shocked, but Drew remained levelheaded. He pulled out his sword ready to attack to buy ti for the two girls. They were so close; they couldnt give up now.
Feng Wu was the calst of the bunch because she knew the python wouldnt hurt them. She could feel the pythons goodwill. A pity no one else could see it but Feng Wu. At this point the python was directly in front of her.
Yifu flashbacked to the entrance exams. Back then she had been disgusted by Feng Wu and the other candidates. Although she hated all of them, Feng Wu was the only one she couldnt bear. Thus far Feng Wu had seen her at her worse, peeing on herself. If she shoved Feng Wu now, she wouldnt have to be afraid of her humiliation coming out. She wouldnt have to be scared of Feng Wu anymore.
As long as there was no Feng Wu, no one would target her anymore. If there was no Feng Wu
These thoughts kept revolving in her mind. Soon enough her eyes flashed with resolve and determination.
