Salmus avoided Cuan who was being thrown through the air due to a kick from Chao. He ran through the mist of toxic gas made by his mother. It was so foggy that he could not see anything meanwhile, Mamushi was dodging the three snakes that attacked her.
Nuo came up with her snake and grabbed Mamushi's leg and spinned her around before she threw her away.
Mamushi flew through air and was stopped by the snake of Salmus. She laid dizzy on the snake and rubbed her forehead with her hand.
Manchu and Eri flew towards salmus from both sides and he could only do his best to block and avoid their fists and kicks.
As he avoided the side kick from Manchu with difficulty, Eri saw an opening and slammed her fist into his stomach with full force.
Salmua collapsed immediately and gasped for air. Drops of sweat ran down his forehead. He looked at his mother with narrowed eyes. He was wearing an armor and yet his mother's fist had such a big impact on him.
Eri smiled and walked over to him, but just as she was about to attack him, he sank through the earth and was pulled down at his leg by San the snake of Mamushi. Within a few seconds San and Salmus were next to Mamushi.
Saburo nodded satisfied
"They work well together, it is beautifully balanced"
Salmus stood up straight and looked ahead
"My poison ivy, who would have thought our parents were so tough!"
Mamushi looked forward to the two mothers that were getting ready to attack them again and looked around for her father's whereabouts.
"My darling the fog is so thick that I can barely see, I do not know where my father is"
Salmus now also looked around but could see little through the fog.
"He is probably underground with Lin and they are fighting Dato and San together. I haven't seen Dato come up for a while now"
Salmus looked anxiously at the ground and worried about his snake. But he could only worry about someone else for a short while, because before he knew it, Nuo's fist landed on his jaw and he was flung meters backwards.
"My son-in-law did you not learn to always stay alert during a fight?"
Nuo gave salmus a forward kick, which he blocked with both arms, but he was still pushed back a few meters. He looked at Mamushi and said
"My poison ivy you are more skilled underground"
Mamushi nodded and disappeared before Eri approached her in the earth.
Haijme who saw this made a dance of joy and pointed to them
"Did you all see that? That's how you have to work together! Salmus didn't even say it specifically, but Mamushi knew what to do "
Meanwhile, Mamushi stood on San's back, followed by Dato,going through the underground tunnels that was made by the five snakes.
Mamushi looked back and saw that on the right she was followed by her mother's snake and on the left she was followed by her mother-in-law's snake.
As she maneuvered through the underground tunnels, she cleverly avoided the attacks of the two snakes that chased her.
Dato who was not a sand snake and had trouble keeping up with them. Mamushi looked at Dato, who was slowing down and gave a signal that Dato could get up the ground.
After all, he was a poisonous snake and could assist Salmus in the fog of poison more than her in the underground tunnels.
Just as she looked ahead again, Lin attacked her from the top right and she flew off San with a big impact. Lin slapped Mamushi at her back with his tail.
Mamushi slammed against the wall of the underground tunnel with great force. When her back touched the wall, she gasped and fell limply to the floor.
She tried to pull herself up with her hands, but the only movement she had was her arms that were shaking but had no strength to lift her body.
Manchu came slowly walking with a grin on his face
"My firstborn daughter, have I not always taught you to make sure that you have a view of everything arround you?"
In the meantime, Mamushi had risen with difficulty and looked pantingly at her father. She looked to the right and saw San wrestling to get out of the grip of the two snakes, but it didn't work.
Manchu accelerated towards Mamushi and before he could reach her, his way was blocked by Nuo who landed in front of him with a big impact, followed by Eri who rolled a few meters further.
Within a few seconds, Salmus stood next to Mamushi and lifted her up and slid to the surface on Dato's head. When they reached the top, they saw that the mist of poison had cleared up.
Nuo tipped off her clothes and stood next to Eri, who had risen again. Together with Manchu they looked up. Nuo went to the wall of an underground tunnel and put her hand on it
"Formation Desert quicksand activate"
Eri jumped on her snake and went up to the surface at great speed. Manchu was once again gliding through the underground tunnels with Lin.
While Salmus and Mamushi were alert, they saw a cursing Kaida in the distance. Her foot was stuck in the earth, and she seemed to keep sliding down, while Huli flashed past her.
Mamushi looked around and saw in several areas that holes appeared in the ground or objects or people sank further into the earth.
"My darling I think my mother has activated her desert quicksand formation"
Before Salmus could answer, Eri appeared before them and blew out a cloud of poison, which caused another mist of poison. Salmus stepped back, coughing, which caused him to step into quicksand and slowly sink down.
Mamushi saw him fall further and further down, but could not make an impulsive movement or she would probably also end up in the quicksand.
'San, it's up to you to help salmus'
San quickly moved over the floor and disappeared under the ground just before Salmus and pulled him further down with his leg so that he would sink faster. When Salmus was completely underground, San released his leg and he jumped on her head.
Channary clapped her hands enthusiastically and looked at the other three elders.
"I am pleasantly surprised with them! They work so well together! "
Then she looked down at the battle of Kaida and Huli
"Then there is a fight going on which I am not satisfied with at all!"
The other three elders turned their face towards the fight of Kaida and Huli and shook their heads. They were also not satisfied with how the fight went on.
