I Received Messages From Future Self!-Chapter 255 - 251 Snake Swarm Breakout
Chapter 255: Chapter 251: Snake Swarm Breakout Chapter 255 -251: Snake Swarm Breakout The Giant Serpent swayed its large head, its eyes somewhat scattered; evidently, the collision had been so fierce that even the serpent itself was stunned and puzzled, with a large piece of its phosphorescent forehead shattered.
It looked somewhat pitiful.
Taotie cowered within the crevice, daring not to move.
It was terrifying!
Being blocked by such a massive creature in a crevice where not even body-twisting was possible was a terrifying experience… truly heart-stoppingly frightening.
Seeing the Giant Serpent, dazed from the force of its own collision, still shaking its head, Taotie breathed a sigh of relief—it was safe for the moment.
If the Giant Serpent continued to ram repeatedly like it just had, even if it couldn’t break through the rock face, the cascading rubble from above would still have buried him alive.
Taotie felt like he was canned meat at that moment.
The rock face was like the can, and he was the meat inside.
If the Giant Serpent wanted to, it could eventually break through the rock face.
With great effort, Taotie fumbled in his pocket for his terminal and called Tom and the others for help; he truly couldn’t take it anymore, trapped in a crevice with the Giant Serpent potentially regaining its senses to pluck him out and eat him without even a chance to resist.
Being helpless and awaiting his doom was not in Taotie’s nature; even if he were to die, he wouldn’t die so suffocatingly.
[Taotie: Family, save me!]
[Taotie: If you don’t come soon, I’m going to end up as snake dung.]
After sending the message, Taotie even snapped a flattering photo of the Giant Serpent and sent it along with his call for help.
Fang Xiaocao and the others, who were desperately fighting the snakes trying to carve a bloody path to escape, received Taotie’s plea for help. Though they desperately wanted to come to the rescue, they were overstretched.
The swarm of snakes surrounding Fang Xiaocao and her group was densely packed, intertwined, and launched one suicidal attack after another against them.
They were determined to devour them alive, not resting until they met their goal; at a glance, there were hundreds of snakes of varying sizes, enough to make anyone with dense phobia’s skin crawl.
Under the protection of Hummingbird and Tom, Fang Xiaocao was unharmed but extremely disheveled.
Hummingbird and Tom, meanwhile, multitasking to both slay snakes and protect Fang Xiaocao, appeared even more pitiful with arms and legs covered in marks from the snakes’ bites.
The wounds on their bodies varied in depth.
Some were just superficial, others swollen.
Even some were bloody, with flesh torn away.
The sight was bloody and horrific.
Fortunately, there were no venomous snakes on this mountain.
Otherwise, just the bite marks on the two of them would have been enough to poison even an elephant to death.
In a rare moment, Fang Xiaocao glanced at her terminal to check what Taotie had sent.
If Taotie was okay, she hoped he could come over to cover them.
But the moment she saw it, Fang Xiaocao was startled.
The photo of the Giant Serpent taken by Taotie was terrifying.
Seeing the message for help from Taotie,
Fang Xiaocao’s heart sank.
“Great, she was hoping Taotie could come to rescue her.”
“And now…”
“Taotie is waiting for their help…”
Fang Xiaocao shook her head helplessly.
She smiled bitterly to herself.
“Now, we just need to break out as soon as possible.”
Fang Xiaocao muttered.
Taking a deep breath, Fang Xiaocao threw a katana, pinning a sneak-attacking snake to the ground.
She shouted, “Tom, we can’t keep fighting here!”
“We need to break out!”
“Taotie is dealing with a big guy and he can’t hold on much longer.”
Fang Xiaocao drew a gun, holding it ready.
In her other hand, she clutched a katana.
She braced herself to desperately carve a bloody path out.
Hearing Fang Xiaocao’s shout, Tom and Hummingbird exchanged a glance and nodded simultaneously.
“We’ll break through and head forward to find Taotie.”
“Hummingbird, you lead the Princess Your Highness and break through!”
“I’ll cover our rear!”
Tom loudly organized the breakout.
“Yes!”
Hummingbird responded.
With his katana in hand, he swung it repeatedly.
Gleaming cold rays flicked the blocking snakes up, slicing them in two.
Fang Xiaocao immediately followed, occasionally firing several steel nails to pin down the snakes sneaking up on Hummingbird.
Hummingbird continuously advanced, with Fang Xiaocao close behind.
Tom followed behind, blocking the snakes chasing after Fang Xiaocao and Hummingbird.
The whole process was extremely perilous.
Fang Xiaocao and the others were bitten by the snakes repeatedly, leaving many bite marks, the pain almost bringing tears to her eyes.

Seeing that Hummingbird had led Fang Xiaocao out of the snake pack and they had gone far enough, Tom no longer held back, took out several Sprite Ball Bombs the size of chicken and pigeon eggs from his pocket.
Grinding his teeth, he clenched hard.
He activated all the bombs.
He threw them forcefully into the crowd of snakes.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
A series of explosions erupted within the snakes.
In a moment, flesh flew everywhere.
Countless pieces of snake carcasses were blasted into the air.
Tom was thrown backward by the shockwave of the explosions, slamming him hard against the rock wall.
Tom felt a dull pain in his chest and a sweetness in his throat.
He spurted a mouthful of blood.
Leaning against the rock wall, Tom felt as if his body had fallen apart, barely able to move his fingers, his vision darkening and his head spinning.
“Cough, cough…”
Tom coughed up two mouthfuls of blood.
He shook his head with a bitter smile.
This time, the impact was severe.
His internal organs felt displaced.
The impact of the explosion felt as if he had been hit by a car.
However, Tom’s efforts paid off greatly.
With those bombs, the dense mass of snakes was violently disrupted, killing a large number instantly.
The remaining ones that weren’t killed outright were all knocked unconscious by the shockwave, lying on their backs belly-up.
Leaning against the rock wall, Tom took several deep breaths before feeling somewhat relieved, then, using the wall for support, he got up from the ground, flexed his limbs to ensure he was alright, and let out a deep breath.
“Damn it,”
“that hurt like hell,” Tom murmured, rubbing his back.
Looking around, besides a few dozen snakes that followed the tunnel in the direction Fang Xiaocao and Hummingbird had left, hundreds of others lay beneath his feet.
“Heh,”
Tom sneered, taking out materials for incendiary grenades from his backpack and making several on the spot, then he extracted a small can of gasoline and spread it on the ground.
With his backpack secured, Tom threw the incendiary grenades toward the area with the most snakes.
He swiftly followed in the direction Fang Xiaocao and Hummingbird had gone.
A real man never looks back.
Behind him, as the Molotov cocktails shattered, they quickly ignited fierce flames that rapidly spread, consuming hundreds of snakes in a blazing inferno, filling the entire tunnel with the smell of roasted snakes.
