Reborn As a Snake, I Can Absorb Fear

Chapter 112 Using a borrowed knife to kill a snakeLooking at the two giant tentacles left behind, Jiang Feng did not continue to pursue the giant octopus.

You have to fleece the sheep a little at a time; even if he killed the giant octopus now, he wouldn’t be able to finish eating it all at once, which would just be a waste.

It is better to digest the two tentacles first and let the giant octopus keep its body safe for now.

He would come back to collect it when he needed it. Jiang Feng was not afraid that the giant octopus would run away; the monk can run, but the temple cannot.

No matter how far the giant octopus could run, it would ultimately still be in the ocean.

Jiang Feng believed that sooner or later, the entire ocean would be his breeding farm.

Each of the two severed tentacles weighed over a hundred tons, and Jiang Feng swallowed one of them directly.

Then, carrying the other one, he swam toward the island. By the time he returned to the island, it had already turned dark.

Jiang Feng bit onto the tentacle, crawled to the side of the cave, and found a comfortable position to lie down.

He began his blissful sleeping time...

One night passed, and one tentacle was completely devoured.

Jiang Feng’s Physique increased by a full 20,000 points. Without hesitation, Jiang Feng swallowed the other already stiff tentacle in one gulp.

If he didn’t swallow it now, it would go bad.

Jiang Feng did not plan to go out today; he wanted to give himself a day off.

Five days later.

Unknowingly, a month had passed since Jiang Feng came to this world, and he was finally a one-month-old snake.

But he was still a young snake. The growth period for snakes is at least one year or more, and for large snake species, it takes several years.

In these five days, Jiang Feng went out hunting three times.

He devoured several hundred tons of giant beast meat, his Physique reached 150,000, and his fear points also exceeded one million.

”The next molting is not far away.”

Jiang Feng muttered to himself. He had now completely adapted to life as a snake in the ocean.

Eat until full, then sleep; wake up, then eat.

After eating, he would go to work hunting. If it weren’t for the wish to avenge his Owner, he could live like this until the end of the universe.

Sakura Country, Prime Minister’s Official Residence.

”Prime Minister, our people accidentally discovered the tracks of the Big White Snake. It is on an island, and has been for several days; it must have made that place its home.”

Suzuki Keiko sat upright on the side sofa, reporting to Takaichi Wanmiao unhurriedly.

On the main sofa, Takaichi Wanmiao asked with great interest: ”Oh, in your opinion, how should we deal with that Big White Snake?”

”Prime Minister, why don’t we use the strategy of borrowing a knife to kill the snake!” Suzuki Keiko suddenly looked ruthless.

”How do we borrow a knife to kill the snake?” Takaichi Wanmiao raised an eyebrow.

”Borrow the USA’s knife to kill that snake.”

”Why would the USA listen to us? If we have to pay a high price to ask the USA to kill the snake, it is really not worth it.” Takaichi Wanmiao frowned.

”We don’t need to pay any price.” Suzuki Keiko smiled confidently.

”What do you mean by that?” Takaichi Wanmiao looked puzzled.

”Prime Minister, not long after the Big White Snake left, I captured a few snake-people.”

”Snake-people?”

”Yes, snake-people. They were my subordinates before. I sent them to capture Su Ling, but they failed, and they came back as snake-people.”

”Since they were your subordinates, why did you capture them? And why did they turn into snake-people?”

”I locked them up because I didn’t want the fact that they turned into snake-people to spread, and the reason they became snake-people is because of this.”

As she spoke, Suzuki Keiko took out a Snake Transformation Pill and handed it to Takaichi Wanmiao.

Takaichi Wanmiao took the Snake Transformation Pill and examined it carefully, but did not find anything peculiar; it was just an unremarkable white pill. She looked at Suzuki Keiko with some suspicion.

”Just this?”

”Yes, Prime Minister. They brought back five of these pills. I took one and had someone test it. Although it is hard to believe, it really can turn a person into a snake-person; I saw it with my own eyes.” Suzuki Keiko said with a serious face, recalling the shock she felt when she witnessed it firsthand.

Although Takaichi Wanmiao found it hard to believe, she trusted that Suzuki Keiko would not lie about such an absurd thing.

After pondering for a moment, Takaichi Wanmiao continued to ask:

”Then what does this have to do with getting the USA to take action?”

”Prime Minister, I interrogated those subordinates of mine, and it turns out that the Big White Snake is not controlled by Su Ling; it has its own consciousness and can even speak.”

”What? A snake can talk?” Takaichi Wanmiao was shocked again.

”Yes, not only can that snake talk, it also ordered my subordinates to come here and harm me, and force me to take the Snake Transformation Pill.”

”Harm you?”

”Yes, the Big White Snake forced them to take the Snake Transformation Pill, turning them into snake-people. If they want to return to their human forms, they have to work for it.”

”So your subordinates reported this to you truthfully? Do they not want to return to their human forms anymore? Could this be a trap?” Takaichi Wanmiao asked in surprise and suspicion.

”At first, I didn’t really believe it either, but after my torture and interrogation, and my own deductions, they shouldn’t be lying.”

”Did they only say these things when you were torturing them?” Takaichi Wanmiao asked again.

”No, they confessed these things the moment they saw me, which is why I believe they are not lying.”

”After all, compared to the Big White Snake, they should be more loyal to me; promising the Big White Snake was just a temporary measure to escape.”

”In fact, they don’t care that much about returning to human form. As long as we can accept their snake-person form, why would they risk harming us?”

”Moreover, they even somewhat like the snake-person form. It gives them a stronger physique, and even some of their bodily ailments have healed. Ever since the lower half of Shui Liufang’s body turned into a snake tail, her syphilis has automatically healed.”

After our biological experts took blood samples for testing, we learned that their cellular activity, antiviral, and anti-aging capabilities have been greatly enhanced.”

Suzuki Keiko’s eyes lit up when she spoke about the snake-person form; she didn’t seem to dislike it.

”If they chose to harm us, even if they returned to human form, there would be no place for them in Sakura Country.”

”By comparison, confessing to me was actually their best choice.” Suzuki Keiko explained her deduction.

”Hmm, your deduction makes some sense, but have you considered a possibility, which is that after turning into snake-people, they are controlled by the Big White Snake? If they can be controlled by the Big White Snake, it could explain everything they did. Perhaps the Big White Snake’s true intention is to make you voluntarily swallow the Snake Transformation Pill. Aren’t you somewhat tempted now?”

Takaichi Wanmiao lived up to being the Prime Minister; she immediately thought of the core of the problem.

In fact, just after Suzuki Keiko’s description, she was also very tempted, because snake-people can resist aging; for her, at over sixty years old, the attraction was huge.

But she had to be cautious.

”Impossible, Prime Minister. They are absolutely not being controlled. They don’t even have the slightest will to obey the Big White Snake; on the contrary, they are full of disgust and hatred for it. Their minds have all been tested by a lie detector.”

Suzuki Keiko was adamant; apparently, she had also ruled this out.
