Intellectual Suppression and Battle Motivation

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

On Research Island.

Because Research Island was an island, there was always a sea breeze blowing over it.

The strong gust of wind rustled the trees around the island.

Faced with a situation like this, the Reticulated Python king and crocodile king couldn’t stop trembling.

They were mutated creatures.

They were also the kings of their respective species…

In actuality, the two creatures were exceptionally intelligent. Their intellect was equivalent to that of a 20 to 30-year-old human.

There are always general rules in the animal kingdom.

It’s extremely difficult for two creatures of different species to communicate with each other in words…. In the movies, animals can communicate with each other without difficulty, which is really just nonsense!

Even humans from different regions have difficulty communicating with each other!

The communication barrier between two different species is even harder to overcome!

However, at that moment… the creatures could understand the sounds Ye Bei made, as well as clearly understand the meaning he was trying to convey.

This fact alone was enough to show how different the intimidating python, which had just shed its skin and was exuding a terrifying aura, was.

However, when Ye Bei slowly pushed aside the white snakeskin that was around him, completely exposing himself to the air, the two mutant kings immediately became frightened!!!

Ye Bei was only 15 meters long.

Not one millimeter longer, or a millimeter shorter.

His girth also wasn’t very impressive… After all, they were in the Red Zone, and all of the creatures here were mutated beasts. The sheer number of creatures here defied all logic!

But…

Ye Bei was obviously much different from the other beasts in the forest.

The most obvious difference was Ye Bei’s fangs. He had sharp fangs at both sides of his mouth, and each of them was terrifyingly long. They were white and shiny like porcelain, and they completely terrified anyone who stared at them for too long… Those fangs would unquestionably kill anyone they pierced.

But just the fangs alone didn’t scare those who saw Ye Bei.

What really scared them were the rows of sharp teeth they saw in Ye Bei’s mouth when he spoke.

His teeth were in neat, straight rows.

Furthermore, his teeth were different from ordinary beasts’ teeth… Each one of his teeth was triangular in shape, with a thick base and an immensely sharp edge. As long as Ye Bei didn’t loosen his grip when he comped down with his teeth, he’d be able to tear off even a piece of the crocodile king or python king’s flesh.

Besides for all this…

What was even stranger about Ye Bei was the pattern on his skin.

Before he evolved, his body was covered in a web of red and black lines, and it didn’t look that much different from the pattern Blood Pythons had—only his pattern was clearer and more textured, and it looked as though his skin had an additional layer of scales.

Now that Ye Bei’s genes had changed, naturally, his body had also undergone a qualitative transformation.

The skin on his body was now completely blood-red.

And on the blood-red skin were rows of gold lines that repeatedly intertwined with each other.

It looked exceptional at first glance!

Blood Reticulated Python!

Ye Bei appeared in front of everyone in this completely new form.

If not for the fact that Ye Bei’s aura hadn’t changed—it had merely become several times more intimidating—even the eight Blood Pythons wouldn’t have been able to recognize him!!!

The mutated Reticulated Python king stared at Ye Bei with wide eyes. He couldn’t stop himself from recoiling slightly when he saw Ye Bei’s new form. Then, he flicked his tongue and asked, “Are you also a mutated python?” He could understand what the snake in front of him was saying, which meant… that the snake before him should also be able to understand him. This is what the Reticulated Python thought.

The crocodile king beside him didn’t stay idle.

It opened its mouth wide, and its gruff voice rang out, along with the metallic stench of blood.

“Your mutation is different from mine! Could it be that you’ve already found that thing?”

The voices of the two giant monsters pierced Ye Bei’s ears… Of course, Ye Bei instantly understood what they meant.

However, the eight Blood Pythons, who were guarding Ye Bei, all had looks of confusion on their faces. At the same time, they got into their stances and were prepared to go to battle at any moment.

They could understand Ye Bei.

However, they couldn’t decipher what the Reticulated Python king and crocodile king said.

As for Ye Bei…

He wasn’t that shocked when he heard what the python king said.

However, he trembled slightly when he heard what the crocodile king had to say!!!

Found that thing?

That thing?

Ye Bei felt that there were many hidden meanings to what the crocodile had said…. Was there actually an object in the Red Zone or the Research Island that enabled a creature to evolve to perfection? It seemed like this was the only possible theory as to why the two monsters in front of him didn’t attack him right away.

“I did consume something! But I don’t exactly know what it was…” Ye Bei said seriously.

He was lying to these two monsters.

After all, he knew full well that he couldn’t fight against these two monsters head-on with his current strength.

Unless he could launch a surprise attack against them and inject his lethal venom into their bodies, he had no chance of winning.

He had to outsmart them if he wanted to leave the area without dying. He had to give them a reason not to kill him.

“Really?”

A glimmer appeared in the crocodile king and Reticulated Python king’s eyes when they heard Ye Bei’s words.

The reason they were mutated was that they had been experimented on by humans in a lab. Their mutation had been caused by constant medicine injections, and they had long since developed intelligence from the process. Their fragmented memories told them that the humans’ experiment seemed to have succeeded.

And there might even be a more powerful mutation drug somewhere on this island…

Their strength would definitely increase if they took this drug.

They were indeed powerful… However, their instincts constantly pushed them to become even more powerful.

“Of course it’s true! I wouldn’t dare lie to you.” Ye Bei flicked his tongue.

“Bring us there immediately!” the crocodile king and python king replied, practically in unison.

When he saw how anxious the two creatures were and how they blatantly revealed what they really wanted, Ye Bei knew that the only thing these two monsters had was strength, which was no cause for concern. He could easily fool them with his intellect.

“Of course, no problem! After all, I’m a species of snake too… But, snake king, are you sure it won’t be a problem if we bring the crocodile over too?” Ye Bei said, purposely putting on a grave face.

As expected… the words just barely left his lips when the crocodile king and python king suddenly overflowed with murderous intent, which seemed to fill the air and rustle the massive trees around them.

A good show was about to start!

Ye Bei became extremely excited when he sensed their overwhelming murderous intent.
