This kind

Almost there!

Wen Meng was very satisfied with the fire she had built.

Roasted eggs, roasted eggs!

Feeling around with his hand to find the egg.

After groping for a long time, he couldn't find it.

Wait.

Where's the egg?!

She suddenly turned her head.

Where is there any egg?

Only a patch of white eggshells.

Something hatched from the egg??

So, where are the things?

It's not that I want to eat it, I'm just a bit curious.

Very soon, her curiosity was satisfied.

There was a chilly sensation on my back,

At first, she thought it was the wet shirt being blown by the lake wind, evaporating and absorbing the heat

Until that sticky coolness spread to the nape of the neck.

She hadn't had the chance to see what was there,

I found myself staring into a pair of dark, glistening eyes.

These eyes, she didn't know if they had eyelids,

But there were definitely eyelashes, and they were quite long.

If these eyes were on the face of any mammal,

Wen Meng would always find it very cute.

But it happened to grow on a smooth, rounded, black, and scaly head.

Hiss, hiss, hiss.

The red tongue darted straight towards Wen Meng's face.

She let out a blood-curdling scream.

"Snakeeeeeee!!!"

With a flick of the wrist, he escaped five meters away.

The size of this newborn snake was only as thick as a baby's arm, though its length was decent

But the weight was almost nothing.

In an instant, Wen Meng was thrown to the ground.

After curling its body, it unexpectedly stood up straight.

That's right, facing Wen Meng.

Motionless.

The appearance is somewhat similar to a king cobra,

Posture..

It's even more alike!!!

Wen Meng was terrified, her legs went weak.

Can't even get up to run.

She was really, so afraid of snakes!!

"I was wrong, I was wrong, King Snake, I will never dare to plot against you again, please spare me."

Originally, I thought it was a bird's egg.

Who could have imagined that it was a snake egg, and one that was about to hatch..

Hearing Wen Meng's plea for mercy, the little black snake showed no reaction

Those round, black eyes didn't blink at all.

Wen Meng wanted to cry but had no tears

It was clear that this snake had no intention of letting him go.

[Ding! Detected disaster beast [Black Anaconda]]

[Please subdue immediately]

What?

This thing is a disaster beast?

Wen Meng's backpack zipper was left open, scattered to one side

The notification sound came from Little Orange.

"How do we subdue it?"

[Touch its forehead with your finger]

Are you kidding me!

"..."

What if I get bitten?

Her fingers,

Useful!

"Don't worry, it's not poisonous."

[Quick!]

Little Orange urged.

Alright.

If it's not poisonous, being bitten will just hurt for a while.

Who made her ability to control beasts?

There will definitely be no avoiding such tasks in the future.

One must have the courage to face their fears!

Wen Meng tremulously raised her right hand,

He extended an index finger towards the little black snake.

The little black snake didn't understand what Wen Meng meant, but it no longer stared at her without blinking like before.

Instead, she blinked her eyes and quietly waited for Wen Meng's next move.

Uh.

Just a little bit more, I can't reach it.

Wen Meng looked at her index finger,

The index finger isn't long enough, so let's try the middle finger.

So, she curled in all her other fingers, leaving only her middle finger pointed at the little black snake.

If snakes had eyebrows..

Wen Meng could clearly see the little black snake's brows furrowed into a tight knot.

Oh oh!

It seems a bit impolite..

Hug a thread!

There was no way.

The distance between humans and snakes seems a bit far.

Wen Meng went all out, propping herself up with one hand, and with her right hand, she reached forward and tapped the little black snake on the forehead.

She could feel the snake's head tilt backward under the force of her pushing fingers.

The little black snake fell straight backward to the ground.

Whoa.

Tactical lean-back?

[Contract fulfilled!]

[Congratulations on capturing a black anaconda (juvenile)]

"Is that all?"

Wen Meng looked at her fingers in disbelief.

He looked again at the small black snake, its body stretched straight like a cane.

Could it also have an anesthetic function?

"Is it okay?" Wen Meng touched the little black snake's body with her finger.

This was the first time she had ever touched a snake.

Smooth and cool.

[It's okay, you'll wake up in 5 minutes]

[Beast tamers, after capturing disaster beasts, especially young ones, must take on the responsibility of raising them.]

Little Orange timely reminded.

"What?" Wen Meng seemed not to have heard clearly.

She herself was still hungry

Another mouth to feed..

[Young disaster beasts will recognize their kin, especially creatures like the black anaconda, which will consider the first thing they see as their mother.]

Wen Meng: 5, became a mother without pain.

No wonder this little thing would look at her with such eyes.

After taming the black anaconda, the pet interface was no longer blank.

There was an additional card inside.

Looking at the illustration of the black anaconda, Wen Meng couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.

It's like the difference between the seller's display and the buyer's reality.

The anaconda in the illustration was as enormous as the snake in the movie "Anaconda," with eyes like two red lanterns

The backdrop is vast mountains, great lakes, and towering waves.

In the realm of the stars, it is said that the floods in human natural disasters are caused by creatures like the black anaconda.

Looking again at the little thing poking its head out from her shoulder,

Adorably clueless.

Will it grow up to become like this?

The little black snake couldn't see Wen Meng's system interface, but it coiled around her warm arm

Emotions ran high, emitting an excited hissing sound.

Will I be able to take good care of t?

Wen Meng was a bit worried,

You should know, she has the kind of constitution where anything she raises ends up dying.

"How about I take you to find your real mother?"

Out of a sense of responsibility and morality..

If the mother snake lost her child, she would be anxious too.

This was entirely a case of projecting one's own thoughts onto others.

[Its mother is not on this star]

Little Orange said.

"How do you know?" Wen Meng asked.

[Because you are a beast tamer, I said that if there are disaster beasts nearby, you will sense them first.]

[The larger the disaster beast, the stronger your sensing ability]

"In that case, there should be many of Little Black's brothers and sisters in the reed marsh, right?"

Wen Meng simply gave the little black snake a name. To make it easy to remember, she called it Little Black.

[Do you know why you chose this one out of so many eggs?]

"I don't know," said Wang, the crowd-pleaser.

Xiao Ju's voice suddenly turned hoarse and aged.

[Because all the other eggs were empty!]

[You chose this one; it is the choice of fate!]

In the unseen realms, there is always a plan!

Wen Meng twitched the corner of her mouth,

Mysterious and enigmatic.

This system is quite superstitious..

Since Little Black had decided to stick with him.

Then she would have to take responsibility for their meals from now on.

Fortunately, in the disaster beast records of the black anaconda, Wen Meng found its diet.

Rabbit, fish, little bird..

So agile!

With her current abilities, she can't get it.

Wild strawberries?

This will do.

Wen Meng placed her backpack under the tree, did a simple warm-up, and then began to climb the wild berry tree.

God knows, she couldn't climb trees at all.

But for the little cub to be full,

The maternal instinct hidden deep within her genes unleashed her potential.

She actually figured it out on her own and really went up!

Just as she was giving it her all and finally climbed onto the branch,

Stretching out her arm to reach the wild berries, just as she was about to pick them,

She met a pair of round, glistening eyes.

A small black disc on a thick branch above her,

The body hung upside down, looking quite leisurely and carefree.

If it had flowing long hair,

Now it should scare Wen Meng half to death.

Can you eat at a buffet?

"..."

Wen Meng sighed.

There is a sense of futility, like peeling corn husks for a child.

Damn it.

She forgot that snakes can climb trees!

When a person loses heart, their grip loosens.

Her hand slipped, and she plummeted straight down from the several-meter-high wild berry tree.

Fortunately, there was a backpack on the ground

[Ee-ya—]

There is a little orange in the schoolbag.

Little Orange, though just a plush cat,

But the system is now attached to Little Orange's body, so it will anthropomorphize it.

When it hurts from being hit, one will cry out.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Xiao Hei saw Wen Meng fall down.

Swimming swiftly.

In the blink of an eye, he was by her side.

His eyes were filled with concern.

Due to the contract being fulfilled, the two of them had a certain mutual understanding.

Even though Little Black couldn't speak, Wen Meng still sensed its emotions.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Actually, there is something.

Wen Meng cursed inwardly, her internal organs hurt so much!

Could there be internal injuries?

Just as she thought this, a black figure slipped into her sleeve.

Wen Meng was stunned for a moment.

She felt something cold and slimy wriggling on her skin.

Little Black is in her shirt.

Wait.

Her mind went blank for three seconds.

Hey!!

The top button of her white school uniform shirt was missing.

Little Black poked its head directly out of her collar.

Innocently gazed at Wen Meng.

But Wen Meng could feel that the lower half of Xiao Hei's snake body was still coiled around her

Somewhere..

On the soft spot.

Wen Meng's face turned bright red.

"Come out!"

She whispered harshly.

Little Black didn't come out.

It didn't understand why Wen Meng was angry.

Wen Meng was very angry, and Little Black was very scared.

Not only did she not come out, but her little head burrowed further into the collar.

Wen Meng pulled the little black head out entirely from her clothes before it disappeared.

"..."

So long.

Why didn't I notice it before?

Put Little Black on the ground to the side,

Wen Meng propped herself up with her hands, trying to see if she could stand up.

Unexpectedly, I stood up with ease.

Moreover, it seemed like the pain in my chest wasn't as bad anymore?

How strange.

[The mucus of the black anaconda has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.]

[Secreting mucus requires its own blood]

[It seems to like you a lot.]

Seeing that Wen Meng didn't understand anything, Xiao Ju explained.

So it turns out that what it did just now was to heal my wounds?

Huh?

Wen Meng was shocked.

Then hadn't she wronged a good snake..

She looked over at Xiao Hei.

Little Black stood to the side, fuming with anger.

"I'm sorry," Wen Meng apologized.

Thinking of how Little Black loved to coil around my arm.

So, Wen Meng reached out her arm towards it

"Come on."

Being young makes it easy to be coaxed.

Whether it is a child or a small snake.

Seeing that Wen Meng allowed it to coil around her again, the little black snake excitedly flicked its tongue.

Rewrapped around Wen Meng's arm.

"Are you full?" Wen Meng asked Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei's head bobbed up and down.

It ate a lot of wild berries in the tree.

The little mouth originally had some purple fruit juice around it, but just now, it all got smeared on Wen Meng's body.

At this moment, Little Black's smooth, round head was resting right next to Wen Meng's ear.

Wen Meng suddenly felt that snakes, these cold-blooded creatures, didn't seem so frightening after all.

"Alright!"

Wen Meng told it not to make a fuss.

It made her very itchy.

When she fell from the tree, Wen Meng pulled down quite a few wild berries.

She ate a little herself, alleviating her hunger.

Now, picking up the ones that weren't broken from the ground, he put them all into his backpack. Nothing should go to waste.

Wait until you're hungry to eat.

Noted the location of this wild strawberry tree.

Wen Meng slung her backpack over her shoulder, a small black snake coiled around her left arm.

"Let's go."

One person and one snake continued to explore deeper into the desolate planet.

The sun gradually set in the west.

She had been walking in the forest for a long time, but Wen Meng still hadn't found a suitable place to spend the night.

Outdoor spaces are definitely not safe,

It would be best to find a small cabin or something.

But this is a desolate planet, how could there possibly be a hunter's cabin here?

Just as the sky was about to turn completely dark,

A cave came into Wen Meng's view.

Isn't this a natural shelter?

But who knows what might be inside the cave.

Wen Meng felt uncertain.

Should I go in...?
