458 Something Shiny

Alex cut the head of the final snake and emerged victoriously. There were cuts all over his body, his left arm was fully broken and there was a large hole on his shoulder plate from a scorpion managing to sneak attack him.

Blood had stopped flowing by now thanks to the intense healing capabilities of his body, but still, the pain was all over him. 

He huffed as he barely stood over the corpse of the snake he had just cut. Alex's legs slipped on the snake in the water, and he fell in the river too. 

Thankfully, he was on the shore, so he didn't drown. 

The clean water slowly took away all the blood and grime on top of him, as well as the venom and poison on his body and the blade. 

Alex was thirsty, but he was too tired to take out his water from the storage bag, so he simply opened his mouth and drank the clear water that was flowing above him.
