Chapter 872 Human Versus Snake
“Haha! Jared, no matter how strong your body is, you’re no match for this snake! Kill them! Kill all of them!” As Declan was laughing, he was trying his best to hold on to the black halo.
He couldn’t afford to let that halo disappear because the snake would instantly die if that were to happen. Since the snake was from a different dimension, the halo served as a gateway for the snake to enter into the dimension they were at.
In the meantime, Jared was observing Declan. Why is he trying so hard to maintain the halo when he looks like he’s struggling? Could it be that if the halo disappears, it’ll bring the snake along with it? Yes! That must be it!
With that thought in his mind, Jared held his Dragonslayer Sword and dashed toward Declan while aiming it at his arm.
When the snake noticed that, it swung its tail again to stop Jared in his tracks. After that, it widened its mouth and bit Jared’s arm.
Jared froze when he was bitten by the immense force. The snake then flipped Jared into the air.
After getting thrown across the sky, he crashed heavily into the ground.
The impact was so hard that a deep crater was formed due to his fall. Jared was then seen climbing out of the crater with difficulty.
At that moment, streams of blood were flowing down from his arm. Even though he had a tough body, he still bled due to the bite.
“Jared…” Lyanna immediately took off her shirt and wrapped his wound with it.
“Get away from here…” Jared urged when he felt a strong gust of wind approaching them. He shoved her aside and ended up getting smacked by the snake’s tail.
Thump!
Jared was sent flying more than ten meters away before falling to the ground with a heavy thud.
Following that, blood was seeping out from the corner of his mouth.
“Mr. Chance!”
When Theodore and Tristan saw that, they immediately drew their weapons and attacked the snack.
Before Jared could tell them to stand down, those two were sent flying away when they were hit by the snake’s tail.
Just like that, neither Tristan nor Theodore could stand on their feet again because they were heavily injured.
Jared stood up with his body supported by the Dragonslayer Sword and glared at the snake. The scales on this fellow are just too tough, and there’s no way I can harm it. If we continue fighting like this, I’m going to lose.
“Go! Kill them!” Declan was getting weaker by the minute. At that point, his body was trembling, and he knew he couldn’t hold on much longer. I have to get the snake to kill Jared as soon as possible.
Hiss!
The snake was angrily hissing away when it was slithering rapidly toward Jared.
It opened its mouth wide and exposed its sharp and venomous teeth before trying to swallow Jared in one bite.
“Jared!”
“Mr. Chance!”
Lyanna, Theodore, and the others instantly got anxious upon seeing that. To their dismay, there was nothing they could do to help Jared.
There wasn’t much Jared could do as he watched the snake’s mouth approaching him. I’m injured. There’s no way I can dodge it!
At that split second, Jared’s body started emitting a gentle white beam of light. Soon, the brightness was intensified. It had gotten so bright that Jared’s body seemed to have turned transparent.
There, the draconic essence was shining brightly. Under the bright white beam of light, the snake panicked and began rolling on the ground and wailing at the same time.
Right then, the body of the snake was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye. From the initial length of more than ten meters, the snake had shrunk to a mere few meters long within a few seconds.
As the snake was rolling in pain, it was trying to make its way toward Declan. With all its might, it leaped into the black halo and tried to escape.
