Psss…
As Ye Bei maneuvered his colossal body across the ground, the soft sand and decomposed leaves constantly made sizzling noises underneath his weight.
But what surprised Ye Bei a little was that after he unleashed the full extent of his predatory aura...
And didn't even bother concealing the sound of his movements, none of the humans discovered him.
Humans…
Sure enough, in many respects, they were inferior to even animals.
In terms of detecting danger, humans were truly pathetic.
Ye Bei inwardly shook his head. At that moment, deep in his heart, he even felt a little lucky… maybe turning into a snake wasn't a bad thing after all! Instead, it might be a symbol of his prograss towards higher genetic advancement.
At the same time, Ye Bei felt a little ridiculous for being so easily framed by people when he was still human.
Most certainly.
While Ye Bei moved towards the crowd, deep in his heart, he was thinking more about human nature!
In order to evolve, in just a few days, he went from an extremely gentlemanly, highly educated chairman of a listed company into a python that devoured a person without so much as blinking an eye. He'd gone from feeling vexed and troubled when he ate that bird to not even hesitating in the slightest when swallowing a person in one bite…
For survival.
For one's inner greed.
Human beings… no, any living being would have undergone such massive changes.
No one knew better than Ye Bei what kind of person Wang Dong was in the past.
He was honest, loyal, and no matter what task he was entrusted with, he would try his best to accomplish it in the shortest time possible, without taking any shortcuts.
This was also the reason why Ye Bei trusted him a lot when he was still human.
But now... this recent series of events told Ye Bei that this loyal, honest man played a large part in the plane accident!
Besides…
That yes-man who used to regard the orders of his superiors more than anything else had immediately changed after learning about the situation and acquiring a powerful weapon.
Human nature! It was truly despicable…
Deep beneath the surface, humans were vile and disgusting.
"Wang Dong, have you gone crazy? Try saying that to me again?" Facing Wang Dong's imposing demeanor, Li Yue started to shout, but her tone was no longer as bold as it was when she was in the company.
"Get on your knees! Li Yue… don't think that I don't know what you've done! You played a big role in Mr. Ye's death… besides, this is a deserted island we're on. It's possible for any one of us to die in this place, so I won't mind killing you right now!"
Wang Dong's tone was chilling.
Something about me again?
The coldness in Ye Bei's eyes became more intense as he slithered across the ground.
"You want to kill me?" Li Yue shouted. "Kill me, then, I dare you… none of you can wash your hands of Ye Bei's death! Wang Dong… I don't know what kind of madness has taken hold of you, but please know your place!"
The two's yelling was very loud, and Wang Dong's hands, which were holding the pistol, were constantly shaking.
It seemed that he would pull the trigger at any time now…
However, those who stood behind the two felt entirely different than they had before. They no longer felt pressured or threatened because Wang Dong was holding a pistol.
Their gazes bypassed Wang Dong and Li Yue...
Their mouths dropped open.
And their eyes opened so wide that it seemed like their eyeballs would fall out.
Gasp gasp…
They breathed heavily through their mouths…
It was only after a whole few seconds that they said something.
They shuddered violently as they raised their hands one after another and pointed their fingers towards Wang Dong's backside…
"What are you guys doing? F*cking put your fingers down. From today on, all the food and all the resources in this place belong to me! If you want to live, you better start behaving yourselves." Wang Dong was unaware of the threat behind him at that moment. When he saw everyone reach out and point at him, he thought everyone wanted to revolt against him, and he immediately yelled in rage.
Aside from these people's shocked expressions…
People from the mercenary base 500 nautical miles away were even more shocked as they gazed at the computer screen and saw the situation on Research Island!
One must know that Wang Dong, Li Yue, Chen Chengsong, and the other 16 people were all equipped with military micro spy satellite cameras. Those cameras could shoot crystal clear video of what was happening and transform it into electronic signals, which it would then transmit to the computer at an incredibly fast speed.
"Oh! My! God!"
"Oh, Lord…"
"What kind of python is that? Is this some kind of joke? Since when… do pythons have fangs?"
"A Blood Python. It's so big… it's almost 8 meters long! Oh my…"
Their eyes wide, the people guarding the computer in the mercenary base kept yelling one after another.
What did they see?
A huge python seven to eight meters in length with a body as thick as a bucket!
About 3 meters of its body was moving swiftly in an "s" shape on the ground, while the rest of its body was erected high…
This way of moving was simply unheard of. It was unseen. It was as if it had a spirit of its own! (...Well, that's a very accurate guess!)
What's more, this snake was moving towards the crowd at an extremely fast pace!
"Quick, report this to the higher-ups!"
"A massive mutated snake has appeared on Research Island… it's around 8 meters in length."
"That group of people we just sent to the island, they're probably done for."
In front of the computer, everyone was yelling… at the same time, the news was naturally reported to the higher-ups in the mercenary as quickly as possible.
On the other side of the island!
Ye Bei didn't pay any attention to the stupefied people…
When he was less than 20 meters away from Wang Dong, only then did Wang Dong, who was holding a pistol in his hand, feel that something was wrong, and slowly turn his head!
The next moment, he could only feel his legs go soft. He couldn't even stand on his feet anymore!
And at that moment, Ye Bei, with his scarlet forked tongue sticking out… slowly opened his mouth and talked like a human!!!!!
