Time continued ticking away.
Zhang Che’s legs were turning numb from sitting down. The anticipation on his face turned into dejection.
-Was I really thinking too much?-
-Or, was that bag of blood too little? Should I get the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus to give me more?-
Within his spiritual sea, the colorful mass of light that represented the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus couldn’t help but tremble…
After some time, just as Zhang Che was about to give up, his ears suddenly perked up. He listened carefully for a while. His eyes immediately shone with excitement.
-At long last, you’re finally here!-
A wave of quick yet heavy footstep sounds rang out, rapidly approaching his way.
The Titan Python on the top of the withered tree suddenly raised half its body up, its large head turning towards the source of the sound. Its cold, emotionless eyes revealed traces of caution.
Zhang Che shrank himself into a tiny ball, his eyes narrowed, looking towards the withered tree which was slightly over two hundred meters away from him, his heart about to leap out of his chest from joy.
Soon, the heavy footstep sounds drew closer, and a huge beast suddenly emerged from the dense shrubbery, appearing in Zhang Che’s sight.
Mmm, if his eyes were right, this was the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus from before!
The moment this Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus appeared in this area, it looked furiously in the withered tree’s direction. When it saw the big pool of dried blood at the base of the tree, it raised his head and let out a cry. After that, it started running with long strides, charging straight towards the withered tree.
The Titan Python was baffled, thinking, -Bloody hell, your daddy, I, didn’t offend you in any way. What’s with you showing such a vengeful look and rushing at me for?-
The Titan Python peeked out from the top of the withered tree, exposing its body, and opened its mouth slightly, spitting its long tongue at the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus, giving off the meanest warning to the latter.
-Don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you’re one quality tier above me! At the most we’ll both suffer together!-
However, after seeing the exposed Titan Python, the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus’ eyes showed even more fury. -Right, it must be this damned freak who killed my son!-
It let out another crazed roar, producing a shockwave that blew the leaves right off the trees. Its huge body quickly ran towards the withered tree and rammed right into it.
A loud bang rang out. The Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus couldn’t help but stumble a few steps back. The withered tree trunk, which was close to ten meters thick, trembled violently. Some of the weaker branches directly fell from above to the ground.
Zhang Che’s jaws widened from shock. -Did you have to be so barbaric? Couldn’t you use your jaws to bite at it, or whip your tail at it? You actually rammed your head into it…-
Well, perhaps it heard Zhang Che’s inner thoughts. That Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus seemed to realized knocking down such a huge tree, despite it having decayed for years, wasn’t such an easy task.
Thus, after that, it tried running up and twisting its body, whipping its thick tail at the tree trunk.
Another loud bang rang out. The tree trunk shook violently once more.
However, an attack of such degree didn’t prove useful at all.
The trunk of this withered tree was truly a little too thick!
The Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus was giving its best effort, roaring constantly. It knew that its son’s murderer was just above the tree, and yet it could do nothing to this cursed tree trunk. How vexing!
Thus, it widened its ferocious mouth which could fit a car, and bit violently at the tree trunk.
A crisp sound rang out. A large chunk was bitten off the slightly decayed tree trunk, making a decent-sized hole.
The Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus swung its head and spat out the crushed wood, then bit down at the tree trunk again with another loud snap.
Now, the coiled-up Titan Python above was also enraged! -You’re bent on finding trouble with me today, aren’t you?!-
It went without saying that the Titan Python would turn a blind eye to the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus destroying the withered tree. There was the treasure it had been guarding for so long on top; what would it do if the spiritual herb was damaged as it fell along with the tree?
With a belly full of rage and resentment, the Titan Python’s long slim body coiled and slithered down the trunk.
Seeing as its target had finally come down, the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus stopped its “vegetarian” act. Its bloodshot eyes stared at the Titan Python, wanting to tear it to shreds right now.
Although it was feeling extremely furious, as a lord-class exotic beast, the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus didn’t lose its rationality. It quickly retreated a few dozen meters, ready to spring into action at any moment to deal a fatal strike on the descending Titan Python.
Finally, the Titan Python’s body slithered down to the bottom half of the withered tree trunk. It remained coiled on the tree trunk just like that, its large head lifted up, staring directly at the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus.
On a branch some distance away, Zhang Che was so anxious that he nearly jumped out and yelled, -Go beat him, what are you waiting for?!-
At last, the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus couldn’t contain its rising anger anymore. It dashed forward and widened its mouth, directly biting down at the Titan Python’s head.
The Titan Python, its body was still coiled about the trunk, was as agile as ever, dodging the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus’ bite with a quick withdrawal. After that, its slithered down to the ground and coiled up at a distance from the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus, looking cautiously at this strong foe that came out of nowhere coldly.
The Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus wasn’t as nimble as the smaller creature, after all. It continued running a few more steps before it brought itself to a stop and quickly turned around.
Seeing its enemy in a defensive stance, the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus wasn’t polite either and lengthen its stride once more, charging at it with a roar.
As it charged, its large, sharp claws directly churned the earth, throwing it behind with every step.
Seeing the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus pouncing in its direction once more, naturally the Titan Python wasn’t going to take its attack head on. Every exotic beast who thought that way would only be left with bones by now.
A silhouette flashed before Zhang Che’s eyes. To his shock, he realized the Titan Python was actually so fast that as the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus ran up to it, the python suddenly jumped off the ground, coiling itself onto its huge enemy’s body.
-Damn, the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus won’t die just like that, will it?-
Zhang Che’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He didn’t dare to believe his eyes. The Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus was actually being constricted by the Titan Python!
It was common sense that once a python coiled itself around its prey, its prey was left without a chance to survive.
After succeeding in its attack, the Titan Python immediately activated its skill, Deathly Coil. Enormous strength burst forth from its slim body, and its muscles constricted, tightly coiling around the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus.
Even so, at this moment, Zhang Che was showing a faint smile on his face.
Thinking of using a purely physical attack to kill the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus was simply the wrong way to go about doing it…
