It was the third day of Bai Chuan's search for the electric eel. Early in the morning, dense white fog enveloped the forest, as if it had put on a transparent gauze. Among them, a huge black snake could be vaguely seen slithering along the shore.
This was none other than Bai Chuan, who had been searching for his prey for the entire night. Unfortunately, although he knew the habits of the electric eel in his previous life, the theory sometimes could not keep up with the practice.
After searching for a few days, Bai Chuan, who had spent countless efforts, still couldn't find anything. Fortunately, the heavens did not disappoint those who worked hard. He finally found it at this time in the morning of the third day.
"It wasn't easy. I finally found you." Bai Chuan looked at the faintly discernible electric eel in the murky water and sighed to himself.
This was no longer the big river he had been looking for, but a tributary of the big river. He looked at the sparkling water and did not enter the water directly. Instead, he chose to turn around and look at the other forests.
Not long after, he stared at a monkey on the tree. He lowered his head and quietly climbed up the tree. With the increase in speed, Bai Chuan bit the monkey before it could react and grabbed it tightly with his sharp claws.
To be honest, ever since Bai Chuan had evolved various abilities that did not belong to snakes, it had become much easier for him to hunt various animals. Because most animals had no intelligence to speak of, they could only rely on their instincts and a few experiences.
In the past, the snakes they encountered told them the method of how snakes hunt and how fast they were. They told them how far they should run so that they would not encounter danger. However, these experiences often made them unable to react in time when facing Bai Chuan, causing them to be bitten.
Because he wasn't hunting this time, Bai Chuan relied on his increased strength to grab the monkey with his sharp claws and bring it to the shore.
The next moment, he threw the monkey in the direction of the electric eel. In an instant, the monkey jumped into the water and caused a huge splash. At the same time, it began to dance and struggle. It was fine if it did not struggle. Once it struggled, it announced its death.
The frightened electric eel in the water looked at the unknown creature that was waving around it and directly released an electric current. In an instant, a strong electric current began to spread around the electric eel.
With a sharp scream, the monkey's body began to convulse violently. At this moment, Bai Chuan had already left the shore again and was preparing to continue catching monkeys.
Unfortunately, the monkeys on the other trees also noticed this terrifying scene. They fled with their families amidst panicked cries.
Bai Chuan could only sigh helplessly and look at the other animals again. Unfortunately, the other animals were still too small. They were not as effective as monkeys at all, and they had been scared away.
"Looks like I have to do it myself." Bai Chuan sighed in his heart. Even so, he still caught a snake that could not escape in time and left.
After returning to the shore, Bai Chuan did not even look at the dead monkey and threw down the snake in his claws.
Once again, a violent electric current was released. In just a few seconds, the snake was declared dead. However, this was enough. The electric eel's stamina should have been consumed.
After all, if a monkey wanted to be electrocuted to death, the electric eel would still need a lot of stamina. Not to mention that the electric eel he chose was only a little more than a meter tall.
If it was more than two meters, Bai Chuan would immediately turn around and leave. The electric eel, which was more than two meters long, was almost the biggest size. Not only in terms of electric current strength, but its physical strength was also not ordinary.
He first chose a distant spot before quietly entering the water and moving along the bottom as most electric eels did not have much vision.
Soon, he approached the electric eel.
He first looked at it, adjusted his position, and then rushed toward the electric eel. The next moment, he raised his snake head, raised the ferocious claws under him high, and then smashed the electric eel's head hard.
The idea was to knock out the electric eel in an instant. However, although his idea was good, the effect of the water was too great. Even if Bai Chuan held back, the speed of his sharp claws could not be fast.
The electric eel, which had set up a weak magnetic induction environment around it, immediately sensed it. Its thick and round body swung, and its head dodged Bai Chuan's claws, allowing his attack to hit its body.
All of a sudden, the electric eel was sent flying far away. The next moment, a strong electric current spread out from its body. At this moment, Bai Chuan, who had just finished his attack, suddenly felt his entire body go numb even from afar. His body was powerless and was about to sink into the water.
However, Bai Chuan was cheering in his heart. It worked! His plan had worked.
Since he had claws, he wanted to avoid close combat and avoid being electrocuted by the electric eel. The resistance of water was very small. As long as he was far enough away, the electric current damage he received would be lower.
As long as the intensity of the electric current decreases, with his current physique, he should be able to withstand it for a while. During this time, he could exhaust the electric eel's stamina. It was not easy to generate electricity using biological energy. It would definitely consume a lot of stamina.
Therefore, he could totally drag the electric eel down. It would be even better if he was lucky enough to knock the electric eel out during the process.
At the same time, even in the worst case scenario, he could still breathe underwater. He did not have to be afraid of fainting from the electric shock and drowning to death. He could wait to slowly wake up.
His defense could protect him from being taken advantage of. He believed that he would wake up faster under the pain.
This was his plan!
...
Five minutes later.
The violently rolling surface of the water finally calmed down. A trace of dark red blood scattered in the water. A slender black shadow slowly surfaced on the surface of the water, revealing a terrifying snake head.
Soon the serpent was out of the water and back on the bank, dripping water down its dark scales.
At this moment, a thick and round fish that was more than a meter long was lying limply in the ferocious claws in front of him. Its previously uninjured head and body were now bruised and swollen. It was a sorry sight.
The snake's sharp claws even accidentally left bloody marks on its body as blood slowly dripped down.
"It's not easy!" Bai Chuan looked at the electric eel in his hand and sighed. Feeling that his body was still numb, he felt both lucky and a strange sense of pride and satisfaction.
He had successfully defeated the electric eel!
After carefully looking at the hard-to-come-by electric eel for a while, Bai Chuan cut open the eel's stomach with his sharp claws and swallowed it quickly to avoid any delays.
Only then did he look around at ease.
