Chapter 503 - The Heaven Lake Water Monster
"I never expected this fellow to be hiding under an iceberg!"
Klein had thought that the system had misjudged it and given him false information.
The reason was that he didn"t believe that there were any living creatures under such a low temperature.
But the truth was beyond human imagination. Not only did the gigantic python live under the glacier, it wasn"t afraid of the cold at all. It even lived very comfortably.
At this moment, Klein finally understood why the humans that had been frozen into ice were all thrown into the s.p.a.ce below.
It seemed like this gigantic python had something to do with it,
It didn"t wish for so much trash to appear in the place where it was sleeping, so it threw all of them down.
This action also saved the lives of those people.
Seeing that Cruise was in danger, Klein naturally couldn"t just stand by and watch.
He quickly ran over and stepped on a pontoon bridge that he had personally made.
It was indeed a little dangerous. If he walked at a normal speed, his feet would slip, so there was no need to say that he was running quickly on the bridge.
Klein immediately summoned his flying cloak and threw it out, wrapping it tightly around Cruise"s body.
This could be considered his last bit of hope.
Cruise had originally wanted Klein to stop risking his life for him. Life and death depended on fate.
It was only when the warm cloak wrapped around his body that he was convinced that Klein was indeed a loyal man.
Cruise, who was tightly wrapped in the cloak, felt his body becoming lighter and lighter.
It was as though he had already begun to escape the powerful attraction of the glacier lake"s water as his body began to drift into the air.
These two forces formed a huge counterforce, one upwards and the other downwards, constantly pulling on Cruise"s body.
Just as his feet slipped, and he felt that he was about to fall into the lake, Cruise felt that his upward force had finally gained an advantage, and his body left the shackles of the pontoon bridge.
His feet began to slowly float in the air. Although the distance between them was not high, it was enough to save Cruise"s life.
He felt as though he had learned the qinggong from a wuxia novel. His entire body was suspended in mid-air, and he quickly floated to the sh.o.r.e.
Klein reached out and grabbed Cruise"s shoulder tightly, pulling him up.
Then, the cape spread open, and the powerful force instantly disappeared,
Due to the strong inertia, Cruise fell onto the ice with a plop. He felt his entire body aching and powerless.
Cruise sighed and said, "You have such a treasure on you. Why didn"t you use it before?"
If he had used the flying cloak directly, he wouldn"t have been able to fly to the opposite sh.o.r.e, and he wouldn"t have alarmed such a ferocious fellow!
Klein sighed lightly. It wasn"t that simple.
The glacier"s water was too attractive. Even the flying cloak could only be used at critical moments. It was too dangerous to use it to walk on the surface of the water
At this moment, the flying cloak seemed to have lost its effect due to the consumption of too much energy. It was like an ordinary cloak that was draped over Klein"s shoulder.
At this moment, the gigantic python had already let out an earth-shattering roar.
These two fellows who disturbed its rest were simply too detestable. It had to eat these foolish humans into its stomach.
Perhaps having made up its mind, the gigantic python broke out of the lake and soared into the air. It actually moved to land and engaged in a life-and-death struggle with the other party.
At this moment, Cruise, who had just heaved a sigh of relief, instantly became nervous again.
He got up from the ground and hurriedly took two steps back.
Cruise looked at the python and asked, "Klein, this fellow seems to have set his eyes on us. What should we do?"
Klein snorted coldly. What else could he do?
He could tell that the gigantic python had lived at the bottom of the glacier for a long period of time.
Its responsibility was to protect the Black Lotus Flower in the middle. If he didn"t get rid of the gigantic python, he definitely wouldn"t be able to obtain the Black Lotus Flower.
With this thought in mind, Klein had already made his move. He was prepared to fight to the death with the python.
At this moment, Cruise was already at a loss. He didn"t expect the operation to be so dangerous.
He no longer cared about the dignity and face of a man. He kept retreating and found a more remote corner to hide in.
Klein didn"t expect the kid to be a wise man who knew how to adapt to circ.u.mstances.
Since he had automatically found a place to hide his body, Klein was prepared to give it his all.
He held the Endless Sword tightly in his hand as if he was trying to find a way to split the gigantic python in front of him into two.
The python had lived in ice-cold water for a long time, so it probably had water-type magic on it.
Everyone knew that fire was a natural counter to the five elements.
However, Klein wanted to do the opposite. He raised his hands and conjured the true fire he had previously used.
Before the two fireb.a.l.l.s reached a certain size, they were thrown out by Klein.
They were thrown at the python"s face and abdomen respectively.
At this moment, Cruise"s eyes were wide with shock. He felt that what Klein was doing was indeed like a moth flying into a flame.
Using fire to deal with water was unheard of.
However, the flame in Klein"s hand wasn"t an ordinary flame. It was a true samadhi flame.
It could burn everything in the world, making it impossible for water or other substances to extinguish it.
Such a powerful flame naturally made even the water of the glacier dodge it.
With two bangs, the gigantic fireball struck the gigantic python"s head and abdomen.
The python seemed to be able to feel an intense pain. Its body was constantly swaying and struggling, as though it wanted to dispel the pain.
Following that, a few fireb.a.l.l.s struck its face, causing the python to be overwhelmed.
And the constant use of true fire was also a great damage to Klein"s body.
His physical strength was constantly being drained, and he didn"t seem to be able to last much longer.
At this moment, a shocking scene appeared.
The python"s body was surrounded by flames, and many parts of it were charred and burnt.
Helpless, it could only plunk back into the glacier water that it relied on to survive and find a place to heal itself.
The giant beast that had been violently attacked by the true fire finally fled in defeat.
A few bubbling sounds came from afar. Klein and Cruise knew that the giant python had lost its will to resist and had disappeared.
At that moment, Cruise heaved a sigh of relief and walked in front of Klein,
The scene just now was too thrilling. He had nearly become a living sacrifice of the glacier water.
Cruise thought for a moment and asked, "Klein, what is this gigantic python? Why does it live in such cold lake water, yet it can completely adapt to the cold here?"
Klein stroked his chin. If he hadn"t guessed wrongly, this gigantic python was the legendary Heaven Lake Water Monster.
Although he don"t know much about the specific situation, the Heaven Lake Water Monster was one of the best cold-blooded animals. Its body was unable to sense the temperature of the outside world.
The lower the temperature, the better it was for it. It wouldn"t be able to adapt to the higher the temperature.
It turned out that the legendary Heaven Lake Water Monster was actually a gigantic python.. This was truly unheard of.
