A Journey of American Comics Starting from the Zombie Universe

Chapter 743 Giant Snake and Poisonous Mist

The moment they escaped the thunderstorm, Bai Ye and the soldiers felt relieved. The bus continued to fly in the sky, but Bai Ye decided to find a safe place to land so that everyone could rest. They looked down at the land below, looking for a possible place to land.

"Look over there!" Bai Ye pointed to a vast plain ahead, "Let's land there."

The soldiers nodded in agreement. Bai Ye controlled the bus and slowly flew towards the plain. As the bus gradually lowered its altitude, they finally felt their feet on solid ground.

"Finally we're down. It feels so good." A soldier said with emotion.

Bai Ye smiled and nodded, but he was not completely relaxed in his heart. He knew that this desert was still full of unknown dangers and they had to remain vigilant at all times.

They stepped out of the bus and looked around. It was extremely dry here, with dead things everywhere. The withered plants, the cracked land, and the dilapidated buildings in the distance all seemed to tell of the desolation and despair of this land.

"Has anyone really lived here?" a soldier asked doubtfully.

Bai Ye shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. But in any case, they needed to find water and food now, otherwise it would be difficult to survive in this desert.

"Everyone split up and look for water and food." Bai Ye gave the order.

The soldiers acted quickly, spreading out and searching the plain for possible clues. Bai Ye stayed alone beside the bus, observing his surroundings vigilantly.

As time went by, the sun rose higher and the temperature in the desert began to rise. Bai Ye felt dry mouth and throat as if it was burned. He knew that he had to find water as soon as possible, otherwise it would be difficult to hold on.

At this moment, he noticed a dilapidated vending machine not far away. Although the vending machine was shabby, it seemed to be still usable. Bai Ye's heart moved and he walked quickly towards the vending machine.

He put in a few coins and pressed the buy button. The inside of the vending machine started to work, and with a series of clicking sounds, several bottles of water rolled out from the delivery port.

Bai Ye quickly picked up the water and couldn't wait to open a bottle and drink it. The cool liquid moistened his throat and heart, making him feel comfortable. He drank half of the bottle of water in one breath, and then stopped to take a breath.

"Great, I finally have water to drink." Bai Ye murmured to himself.

He picked up the remaining bottles of water and prepared to take them back to the bus for the soldiers to drink. However, at this moment, he suddenly heard a low hissing sound. This sound was very strange, as if it came from hell.

Bai Ye was startled and looked around quickly, trying to find the source of the sound. However, at this moment, he saw a huge figure slowly rising from behind the sand dunes in the distance.

It was a giant evil snake! Its body was extremely thick, and its scales shone with a strange light. Its eyes were as dark as the abyss, revealing endless evil and greed.

Bai Ye's heart sank, he knew this giant snake was definitely not a good thing. He quickly put the water in his hand into his backpack, then drew out the weapons he carried with him, ready to fight.

"Everyone be careful! There is danger!" Bai Ye shouted loudly.

The soldiers heard Bai Ye's shouts and rushed back from all directions. When they saw the giant snake, they all showed horror on their faces.

"What...what is that?" a soldier asked tremblingly.

"It's an evil giant snake." Bai Ye said in a deep voice, "Everyone, be careful and don't act rashly."

The soldiers nodded, tightened their weapons, and prepared to fight. They knew that this giant snake was definitely not something they could easily deal with.

Bai Ye stared at the giant snake closely, trying to find its flaws. However, the giant snake's movements were extremely fast and cunning. It kept shuttling back and forth in the desert, trying to find an opportunity to attack.

"We can't go on like this, we must take the initiative!" Bai Ye shouted loudly.

He rushed out first and pounced towards the giant snake. Seeing this, the soldiers followed him one after another, and they followed closely behind, trying to help Bai Ye fight against the giant snake.

However, the giant snake was extremely powerful, and it easily dodged the attacks of Bai Ye and the soldiers. Instead, it took the opportunity to open its huge mouth and bite towards them.

Bai Ye was startled, and he quickly rolled to the side, avoiding the attack of the giant snake. However, the other soldiers were not so lucky, and several of them were bitten by the giant snake's sharp teeth and fell to the ground groaning in pain.

"Everyone be careful! This giant snake is extremely powerful!" Bai Ye warned loudly.

The soldiers became more cautious after hearing this. They carefully avoided the giant snake's attacks and tried to find opportunities to counterattack. However, the giant snake seemed to see through their intentions and was always able to avoid their attacks one step ahead.

Bai Ye looked at the soldiers lying on the ground, his heart filled with anger and helplessness. He knew that they could no longer be passive like this. They had to find a way to take the initiative to have a chance to defeat the giant snake.

He rushed out again, this time holding a sharp dagger in his hand. He tried to get close to the giant snake's body and then take the opportunity to launch a fatal blow. However, the giant snake seemed to be able to predict his actions and always managed to avoid his attack one step ahead.

Bai Ye's heart sank. He knew that this was not a solution. He had to find a way to change his tactics in order to have a chance to defeat the giant snake.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of a solution. He quickly returned to the bus and took out the plasma wrench from his backpack. This wrench had helped them escape from the thunderstorm area, and now it might be the key to their victory over the giant snake.

Bai Ye adjusted the plasma wrench to the highest energy output state, and then rushed towards the giant snake. He held the wrench tightly and pointed it at the head of the giant snake.

"Die!" Bai Ye shouted loudly.

With a flash of intense blue light, the plasma wrench released a powerful energy beam, which hit the giant snake's head directly, instantly punching a huge hole in it.

The giant snake let out a sharp hiss, then fell to the ground with a bang. Its body rolled several times in the desert before stopping and never moving again.

The soldiers cheered as they watched this scene. They knew that the evil giant snake had finally been defeated. They looked at the giant snake's body lying on the ground, their hearts filled with joy and pride of victory.

However, just when they thought everything was over, a new crisis quietly arrived. They found that a strange fog was spreading around the giant snake's body. The fog quickly spread and enveloped the bus and the soldiers. "Oh no! This is poisonous fog!" Bai Ye's face changed, and he quickly reminded the soldiers.

The soldiers were horrified when they heard this, and they covered their mouths and noses, trying to resist the invasion of the poisonous fog. However, the poisonous fog seemed to penetrate every hole and continued to penetrate into their bodies.

Bai Ye looked at the fog around him, his heart filled with worry and uneasiness. He knew that they had to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise it would be difficult to escape the clutches of this poisonous fog.

Bai Ye responded quickly, waving his hand to signal the soldiers to follow him and find a shelter from the poisonous fog. They quickly retreated in the direction of the bus, hoping to use the enclosed space of the bus to temporarily avoid the deadly fog.

"Hurry! Get on the bus!" Bai Ye's voice seemed a little vague in the poisonous fog, but the soldiers responded quickly and ran towards the bus.

However, the speed at which the poisonous fog spread was much faster than they had imagined. Just after they had run a short distance, several soldiers were caught up by the poisonous fog. They fell to the ground in pain, their bodies twitching.

"No! I can't let you fall like this!" Bai Ye's heart was filled with anxiety and anger. He stopped, turned around and rushed towards the fallen soldiers.

He quickly picked up a soldier, put him on his back, and continued running towards the bus. However, his speed was greatly slowed down and he was soon caught up by the poisonous fog.

Bai Ye felt dizzy and knew that the poison mist was starting to take effect. He gritted his teeth, endured the discomfort, and continued to run forward.

At this moment, he heard a burst of hurried footsteps. He looked back and saw that the remaining soldiers were running hard, trying to catch up with him. Their faces were full of anxiety and determination, as if telling him with their actions: We will not give up!
Bai Ye was moved. He took a deep breath and sped up again. Finally, with their joint efforts, they successfully returned to the bus.

Bai Ye quickly opened the door of the bus and put the soldier on his back in. Then, he turned and shouted to the remaining soldiers: "Quick! Come in!"

The soldiers rushed into the bus, and Bai Ye followed closely behind, quickly closing the door. He pressed a button to activate the bus's sealing system. With a slight vibration, the bus's windows and doors were tightly closed, isolating the poisonous fog from outside.

"Huh...finally safe." Bai Ye slumped in his seat, gasping for breath.

The soldiers also sat down, looking at each other, with expressions of relief. However, their joy did not last long.

At this moment, they suddenly heard a strange sound coming from outside the bus, as if something was hitting the body of the bus.

Bai Ye was startled, he quickly stood up and walked to the window of the bus. He looked out through the crack in the window and saw more than a dozen snakes appearing in the poisonous fog outside!
The bodies of these snakes are thick and slender, and their scales are shining with strange light. Their eyes are as dark as the abyss, revealing endless evil and greed. They are biting the body of the bus with their sharp teeth, trying to find the entrance to the bus.

"Oh no! These snakes are accomplices of the giant snake!" Bai Ye's face changed drastically. He quickly turned around and looked at the soldiers, "Everyone be careful! These snakes may find a way to enter the bus!"

The soldiers were horrified when they heard this, and they all stood up, picked up their weapons and prepared to fight. However, these snakes were extremely fast and cunning, and they kept shuttling around the bus, trying to find an opportunity to attack.

Bai Ye looked at the snakes outside the window, feeling anxious and helpless. He knew that they could no longer be passive like this. They had to find a way to take the initiative to have a chance to defeat these snakes.

He quickly walked to the bus control console and began to operate the bus's weapon system. He knew that the bus was equipped with some powerful weapons that could be used to deal with these snakes.

"Everyone get ready! We are going to fight back!" Bai Ye shouted loudly.

The soldiers nodded in agreement when they heard this. They gripped their weapons tightly and waited for Bai Ye's orders.

Bai Ye quickly adjusted the bus's weapon system and pressed a red button. With a strong vibration, a huge gun port suddenly opened on the roof of the bus.

"Fire!" Bai Ye shouted loudly.

Following his order, a strong flame instantly spurted out from the muzzle of the bus. This flame shuttled through the poisonous fog like a fire dragon, and instantly swallowed up several snakes.

The snakes hissed shrilly and then retreated. However, they did not give up the plan to attack the bus. They continued to bite the body of the bus with their sharp teeth, trying to find a new breakthrough.

Bai Ye looked at the snakes outside the window, his heart full of vigilance and uneasiness. He knew that these snakes would never give up their plan to attack the bus easily. They had to stay vigilant at all times to have a chance to defeat these snakes.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of a solution. He quickly went to the storage room of the bus and found several sprays that could produce strong irritating gas. These sprays were prepared by him for emergency situations, and now they could be used to deal with these snakes.

Bai Ye quickly distributed the spray guns to the soldiers and signaled them to get ready. He walked to the bus control console again and adjusted the bus's weapon system.

"Everyone get ready! We are going to fight back again!" Bai Ye shouted loudly.

The soldiers nodded in agreement when they heard this. They held the sprayers and weapons tightly in their hands, waiting for Bai Ye's orders.

Bai Ye pressed a red button again, and the muzzle of the bus ejected a strong flame again. This time, the flame was mixed with the smell of those irritating gases. These gases quickly spread in the poisonous mist, and instantly enveloped the snake group.

The snakes hissed even more miserably, then fell to the ground and rolled over. Their bodies seemed to be corroded by the irritating gas and they could only struggle painfully on the ground.

Bai Ye looked at the snakes lying on the ground and felt relieved. He knew that they had finally defeated the snakes. However, he did not relax his vigilance. He knew that this desert was still full of unknown dangers. They had to stay vigilant at all times to have a chance to survive in this desert.

He turned to look at the soldiers, and saw that they all had victorious smiles on their faces. However, their smiles were accompanied by a hint of fatigue and helplessness. They knew that although they had won the battle, they had also paid a heavy price.

"Everyone has worked hard." Bai Ye said softly, "Let's take a rest first, and then continue moving forward."

The soldiers nodded in agreement, and they all sat back in their seats and began to rest their eyes. Bai Ye walked to the control console of the bus and began to check the condition of the bus.

He knew that the environment they were in was still very dangerous. They had to stay alert at all times to have a chance to find a safe way out of the desert. However, his heart was full of determination and courage. He knew that as long as they united as one and worked together, they would be able to overcome all the difficulties in the desert.
