Whole School Transmigrated: I Have 3 Daily Intel

Chapter 146 - 112: Field of Corpses! The Sky Pit, a River of Blood! The Blood-tooth Python Vanished Again?

Sponsored

Although he didn’t know where the Blood-tooth Python was, he was certain of one thing: it hadn’t escaped back underground.

The intelligence report said it wouldn’t return underground to hibernate until after today, and Chen Chong had complete faith in that information.

He continued onward.

More and more bodies lay scattered across the ground, with blood and other unidentifiable substances splattered everywhere.

He could even see some scales...

Finally, another human life signature appeared within his range.

Chen Chong quickly ran over.

Something was pinned beneath two corpses.

He pushed them aside, revealing a petite girl lying underneath with her eyes closed.

Although she was unconscious, her face caked in a mixture of mud and blood, she thankfully had no obvious external injuries. The life signature his ring perceived was also very stable and normal.

Chen Chong pressed a finger firmly into the pressure point below her nose.

’Hopefully, she won’t be scared into a complete breakdown like the last person...’

"COUGH, COUGH..."

The girl awoke. Staring at Chen Chong, her eyes were filled with confusion and doubt.

After a moment, her memories came flooding back. Terror washed over her face, and her eyes quickly welled with tears.

"Listen, I’m here to kill the Blood-tooth Python. The more I know about it, the better. If you know anything, you need to tell me. I’ll have someone get you out of here and see that you get treatment."

"But if you can’t help me, then I have no choice but to leave you here for now. It’s your call."

Chen Chong didn’t waste any words, getting straight to the point.

Hearing this, the girl stared blankly at Chen Chong, an intense will to live shining in her eyes.

"Save me! Please, save me! I have to get out of here! I never want to set foot in this godforsaken place again... It’s terrifying!"

"I’ll get you out. Tell me everything you saw."

"Okay, okay..."

As she recounted the events, Chen Chong learned the whole story.

The girl wasn’t in a club. She was just a member of a small five-person team. Her captain was interested in Extraordinary Creatures, so they had tagged along with the Fighting Club and the fitness club to get here.

Initially, things went smoothly for the large group of over a hundred people. They circled the Celestial Pit several times but found no trace of the Blood-tooth Python.

They didn’t even see a single corpse from the previous group.

If it weren’t for the lingering bloodstains on the ground, they would have even suspected that the students who’d escaped and returned were lying.

Just as the sky began to darken and everyone, assuming the Blood-tooth Python wasn’t in its lair, was preparing to leave...

That’s when it happened.

The water in the deep pool began to churn violently as a dark shadow rapidly emerged.

The Blood-tooth Python had burst forth from the depths.

Even though the surface of the pool was nearly a hundred meters below ground level, the Blood-tooth Python’s body clung firmly to the pit wall. Its speed was incredible; it reached the surface in the blink of an eye.

Before coming, everyone had been fired up, practically bouncing off the walls with excitement. They’d brandished their weapons, shouting about hunting an Extraordinary Creature, dividing its flesh, and sharing the Card that would appear after it was slain.

But when the Extraordinary Creature truly appeared before them, they all finally realized that courage wasn’t something you could just talk about...

A massacre began.

The Blood-tooth Python’s body was like a freight train, grinding people into pulp wherever it slithered.

Its fanged maw could devour four or five people in a single gulp.

Meanwhile, their weapons had no effect when they struck its body. It was like hacking at solid rock, and the force of the impact alone was enough to send people staggering back.

Even if someone got lucky and struck one of its wounds, they couldn’t do any real damage to its tough flesh. All it did was enrage the Blood-tooth Python, causing it to turn and attack them.

Soon, the bodies of the hundred-strong group littered the ground. People were either swallowed whole or had their bodies torn to shreds and scattered everywhere.

The rest of them began to scatter and flee, but they couldn’t escape the Blood-tooth Python.

Even if some did manage to escape, it must have been a very, very small number...

As she recounted the tale, the girl’s face was etched with profound fear, and tears slid from the corners of her eyes.

"Do you remember the Blood-tooth Python’s exact condition? How many injuries did it have? How severe were they?"

"It was almost dark by then, so I couldn’t see very clearly, but a large portion of its body was missing scales. Maybe... maybe about a third of it was just a bloody mess. And its tail was severed, and there was a very obvious, bloody hole in its head."

Hearing this, Chen Chong now had a clear picture. It seemed the Blood-tooth Python’s condition was just as the intelligence report had described, if not worse.

"Do you know anyone from the Swordsmanship Club?"

The girl was taken aback, not quite understanding why Chen Chong was asking this question, but she nodded. "I know of them. They’re often in the news. I’ve seen them before."

"Did you see them here?"

The girl shook her head. "No, I didn’t see them. Were they here too?"

Chen Chong didn’t answer. ’It seems Ning Yu arrived after this group was massacred by the Blood-tooth Python,’ he thought.

’As for Ning Shuang, who came here at the very beginning, perhaps this girl just didn’t notice her.’

"Brother Chong!"

Xu Jun, Zhang Meng, and the others had finally arrived.

Aside from Wang Biao and Jia Wen, who were used to the mountains of corpses and seas of blood on the battlefield, the other three looked rather pale after seeing the ground covered in blood and bodies on their way over.

Huang Mao took two more steps before dropping to his knees and vomiting.

But after retching for a long time, all he managed to cough up was some stomach acid. Clearly, this wasn’t his first time vomiting...

The Tiger Striped Dog quickly came to his side, wagging its tail and licking his face.

Chen Chong stroked its head, then looked at the others. "Did you bring a pen and paper?"

"No. Why would we bring that stuff?" The others shook their heads.

Chen Chong glanced around, tore a strip of cloth from the white shirt of a male corpse, then used the blood on the ground to write a few words on it.

"Hu Zi, take this. Go back to the school and give it to Zhong Fang!"

WOOF—

The Tiger Striped Dog snatched the strip of cloth and quickly disappeared from sight.

"Brother Chong, what did you write?"

"I told the people from the Fishing Club to send some members over to bring any living students back to school for treatment. If we leave them, they’ll die from their injuries even if they’re not dead yet. We’re all fellow students. We should help if we can."

"Brother Chong, you’re a true man of honor... BLECH!"

Huang Mao, who had just walked over to give a thumbs-up, saw a pile of meat pulp in the distance and immediately dropped to his knees, heaving again.

Xu Jun and Zhang Meng looked queasy as well, but they were faring much better than him.

"You think Hu Zi will understand? Let’s hope he doesn’t give that strip of cloth to someone else."

Chen Chong said nothing. The Tiger Striped Dog’s intelligence was much higher than one might imagine. Especially after its evolution, it was almost spookily smart.

When he asked it to fetch things in his room, it never made a single mistake. Sometimes, it knew what to do before Chen Chong even spoke.

’With that level of intelligence, finding Zhong Fang—a man it had met several times—would be no problem at all...’

"Zhang Meng, Huang Mao, Jia Wen, and Wang Biao. The four of you search along the edge of this Sky Pit. See if there are any survivors. Carry them to the outskirts and wait for the people from the Fishing Club to come take them back."

"We don’t want them to suffer a second time if the Blood-tooth Python shows up again. Remember to check for breathing and a heartbeat. A lot of people are just in a dead faint, so don’t get them mixed up."

"Xu Jun, you’re with me. We’ll go check deeper inside."

With that, Chen Chong led Xu Jun deeper down the slopes of the Sky Pit.

He had his reasons for bringing Xu Jun along.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Xu Jun wasn’t usually the sharpest knife in the drawer; he had undergone a comprehensive enhancement, and his physical fitness already surpassed that of an ordinary person.

He also had his ’turtle defense,’ a move even more absurdly powerful than Rock Body Transformation. In a critical moment, it could not only save his life but also protect others, making him fully qualified to face an Extraordinary Creature head-on.

As for the other four, with the exception of Wang Biao, they would be stretched thin. It was safer for them to handle other tasks on the periphery.

If they actually found a trace of the Blood-tooth Python, they would have to act according to the situation...

As Chen Chong and Xu Jun went deeper, they moved from the middle of the Sky Pit to its lowest point, where the abyss was located. One look down was all it took to see the bottomless, inky-black pool of water.

"Brother Chong, I don’t see any sign of the Blood Python. You don’t think it ran away, do you?"

Chen Chong didn’t reply, simply staring at the deep pool below.

He was certain the Blood-tooth Python hadn’t gone underground to hibernate, and in its injured state, it was unlikely to have left its lair.

Since there was no sign of it around the Sky Pit, the most likely place for it to be hiding was this massive pool.

After all, both the first group it had attacked and the female survivor from just now had said it emerged from the pool.

So, would it appear again now?

Chen Chong kicked a loose rock over the edge.

A dull splash echoed throughout the deep pit. The calm surface of the water was broken, sending out one ripple after another...
