Chapter 190 The Throat-Splitting Giant Gastropod
Taking advantage of the critical moment, Xiong Da grabbed the resource box, met up with Mo Ming, and then suddenly turned and ran into the forest. Seeing this, Xiong Er also took advantage of the fact that the giant throat frog's attention was drawn to the sandpit, and according to the plan, he ran into the dense forest.
All of this was Mo Ming's carefully designed scheme: to use one enemy to devour another, and then take advantage of the chaos.
He wanted to take the tempting level 3 emerald resource box next to the Komodo Forest lizard, but he didn't want to get entangled with it here.
So he came up with a simple yet efficient plan: first, let Xiong Er go into the dense forest and lure another crimson-purple level ferocious beast over, deliberately leading it to the territory of the Komodo Forest lizards.
The monitor lizard's ferocity and territorial instincts mean it will never tolerate another predator encroaching on its territory. The beast, enraged by Xiong Er's sneak attack, suddenly arrives here, radiating murderous intent. Their encounter is bound to spark dangerous conflict.
However, Mo Ming did not expect that Xiong Er would casually provoke the monsters he had seen in the strange swamp that day, and they gave Mo Ming a very dangerous feeling.
As the giant gulper frog approached, Mo Ming's second phase of his plan began.
He instructed Xiong Da to activate his growth ability before the giant lizard could fully react, and deliver a powerful blow to the lizard's head, pressing its head into the sand to temporarily suppress it, while also seizing the opportunity to quickly capture the level 3 jade resource box.
This attack not only disrupted the giant lizard but also ignited the fury of both sides, setting the stage for a life-or-death battle between the two ferocious beasts. Meanwhile, Xiong Er was responsible for distracting the giant frog from the other side, ensuring the plan's successful execution.
When Xiong Da returned carrying the resource box, Mo Ming's instructions were very clear: retreat quickly and enter the dense forest.
The three then left the battlefield, leaving behind the enraged Komodo forest lizard and the cleaving-throat giant gulper frog to engage in a thrilling life-or-death struggle in the sand pit.
Just as Mo Ming had predicted, the battle between these two apex predators would completely tie them down. Regardless of who wins in the end, they will become victims of his scheme, while the fruits of victory will be firmly in their hands.
......
Moments later, the slit-throated giant gulper frog arrived at the sandpit, only to find a Komodo forest lizard with gleaming eyes instead of the bear that had ambushed it. In the sandpit, the two apex predators finally met in a head-on confrontation.
The Komodo forest lizard, having been ambushed, was clearly enraged. It shook its head rapidly, shoving sand off its scales, and let out a piercing roar.
With eyes filled with murderous intent, the Komodo forest lizard slowly turned its head towards the throat-splitting giant frog. In broad daylight, this creature dared to openly trespass into its territory and even launch a sneak attack. The Komodo forest lizard was furious.
Faced with this scene, the giant gulper frog was a little confused, but it did not back down in the slightest.
It stood at the edge of the sandpit, puffing out a deep, guttural sound from its throat pouch, its orange-red eyes growing ever more intense, as if it had already locked onto the Komodo forest lizard as its opponent.
A few dozen seconds later, the Komodo forest lizard could no longer contain itself and pounced on the giant frog. Its thick tail swept across, stirring up a cloud of dust and turning the clearing into a battlefield.
In an instant, the giant throat frog took a step back, but it was not panicked. It stomped its huge stone pillar leg on the ground, causing the entire ground to shake. Then it suddenly leaped and actually crashed into the Komodo forest lizard.
The first collision between the two behemoths was deafening, like thunder.
The giant frog's wide mouth bit down hard on the lizard's forelimb. Its sharp teeth pierced through the thick scales like scissors, tearing off a piece of flesh. Blood gushed from the giant lizard's forelimb and spread across the sand.
The monitor lizard, however, was not to be outdone. It curled its tail again and lashed out with force, striking the giant frog in the abdomen with a loud "smack," actually flipping the heavy frog over.
The giant throat frog rolled on the ground, then quickly got up, its throat pouch swelled violently, and with a "plop," it sprayed out a highly corrosive, fishy-acidic liquid, which went straight to the monitor lizard's face.
The Komodo forest lizard was caught off guard and sprayed directly. The intense corrosive effect made it scream in pain, shake its head and try to get rid of it. It frantically lunged forward with its claws, but the giant frog nimbly dodged it.
However, the Komodo forest lizard, being the king of the land, charged forward in its wounded rage and slashed the giant frog's chest with its sharp hind claws.
With a loud thud, the slick skin of the giant frog was torn apart, and green blood gushed from the deep, bone-revealing wound.
But this seemed to make the giant frog even more ferocious. It suddenly leaped up and bit the giant lizard's neck with its monstrous maw.
The Komodo forest lizard struggled frantically, its tail whipping up gravel and slapping against the giant frog's body, but the slit-throat giant frog held on tightly. With a deafening growl from its throat, the giant lizard's entire neck was ripped off, and blood gushed out like a pillar!
The Komodo forest lizard let out a final, mournful cry before its massive body finally collapsed to the ground.
The giant gulper frog, panting heavily and dragging its wounded body, glanced at its fallen opponent, licked the blood off its body with its tongue, and then bit into the giant lizard's corpse, beginning to devour it.
The giant throat frog stood in the center of the battlefield, the sandpit a scene of utter devastation. Its massive, blood-stained mouth was slightly open, and a heavy, suffocating stench filled the air.
The Komodo forest lizard's carcass had been torn into several pieces, most of which it had swallowed. Its green scales and limb remains were scattered on the sand, stained with blood, resembling a scene of slaughter.
The giant frog's throat sac swelled and contracted, clearly still swallowing the last part of its prey.
Its abdomen was visibly swollen, to an exaggerated degree, and with each step it took, its heavy body would emit a teeth-grinding "crunch".
The giant gulper frog's orange-red eyes were lowered, its gaze becoming somewhat sluggish. Clearly, swallowing such a massive prey was a victorious feast for it, but also a battle that consumed immense physical and mental energy.
Its massive body was riddled with torn scales, and bright green blood slowly flowed from several deep wounds, mingling with the blood of enemies it had sprayed out while eating Komodo forest lizards, leaving a scene of utter devastation.
Despite its exhausted appearance, the giant gulper frog's pupils still retained the predatory intent and ferocity of a predator. It stood quietly in the center of the sandpit, and after a moment, it lowered its head and licked the wound on its chest with its long tongue, making a wet "cooing" sound.
This method of cleaning the wound makes it look even more eerie and dangerous.
Having replenished its energy, the slit-throated giant gulper frog seemed to have regained some strength. Its throat pouch expanded violently once more, then spewed out a foul-smelling gas, as if announcing its complete dominance of the battlefield.
After a brief pause, the giant frog laboriously lifted its heavy legs and slowly moved towards the edge of the sandpit. Under the blazing sun, it gradually dragged its massive body deeper into the jungle.
Its movements were as slow as ever, each step accompanied by a dull thud, leaving considerable marks on the ground, while its receding silhouette appeared particularly heavy and dangerous.
It's not hard to guess where the giant gulper frog went. It may have followed the water source back to its original habitat—the eerie swamp, where the humid climate and secluded environment are most suitable for its rest and life.
At this moment, it has enjoyed a sumptuous feast, but its body has also accumulated a lot of fatigue as a result.
It needs to find a suitable place to rest as soon as possible, while also giving its stomach enough time to digest the remains of the enormous creature it just swallowed—the Komodo forest lizard.
Then, go find that stupid bear who ambushed you and courted death!
