Digging to Survive: I Can See Hints

Chapter 518: Water Snake Coiling!

Klein immediately made up his mind to follow the river.

The place they were looking for should be at the end of the river.

However, what they didn’t expect was that the river wasn’t as safe as they had imagined.

The originally flowing water suddenly became turbulent, followed by more than a dozen water snakes jumping out of the water!

Although the water snakes were not big, the appearance of these strange creatures in groups really made people’s scalps go numb,

More than ten water snakes left the range of the small river and surrounded the three people,

Although they did not attack, it seemed that they did not intend to let the few people leave.

Cruise’s eyes widened in surprise, and even his legs began to go soft.

He wasn’t actually afraid of those ferocious and vicious beasts, but the hair-raising water snakes were indeed somewhat unbearable to him.

He curled up and covered his head with his hands as he couldn’t help but let out a loud scream.

Klein blinked, thinking that the child wouldn’t be so cowardly, right?

‘It’s only a few dozen water snakes. Can’t he just stomp them to death with his feet?’

Klein had always been a man of action. He directly kicked one of the water snakes into the water.

Then, with two bangs, another few were kicked back.

Then, he patted Cruise’s shoulder.

“This thing isn’t aggressive, nor is it dangerous. You shouldn’t be so frightened, right?”

Upon hearing Klein’s words, Cruise slowly raised his head.

He discovered that most of the water snakes had been thrown back into the water by Klein and James.

The two of them had enough leg strength, so the water snakes that had been kicked back had already lost their ability to resist. They wouldn’t be able to climb back up again.

Only then did he cough lightly and stand up with an embarrassed expression.

“Well, I’ve never been afraid of anything since I was young. I’m only afraid of these snakes, insects, rats, and ants. Especially snakes and rats. My body will go soft when they see them, and I won’t be able to help myself…”

It was no wonder. Everyone had something that they couldn’t accept. They were afraid and repelled from the heart,

Klein didn’t say anything else. He prepared to continue moving forward after dealing with these detestable water snakes,

But what he didn’t expect was that the last few water snakes weren’t as weak as he had imagined.

One of them quickly wrapped itself around Cruise’s calf.

With a tragic cry, the water snakes actually bit through Cruise’s calf, causing blood to instantly flow out.

“Ah!”

The tragic cry frightened Klein greatly as he hurriedly lowered his head to check the situation.

Seeing that the water snakes were still tightly wrapped around Cruise’s calf, he quickly found his dagger and cut the water snake in half.

At that moment, black blood was already flowing out of Cruise’s wound.

Cruise felt his calf gradually turn numb as he sat down on the ground with a plop, his body trembling.

At that moment, he didn’t feel any pain. He only felt the numbness spread from his calf to his thigh, and eventually, his lower body was unable to move.

And the terrifying feeling was still spreading throughout his body.

But when he looked at Klein in horror, he knew that he had been poisoned.

Klein had said that the water snakes weren’t aggressive or dangerous. It looked like Klein’s words couldn’t be believed!

“Klein, quickly save me. I can’t even move my body. What kind of snake venom is this?! Will it endanger my life?”

People were afraid of death, and the young Cruise was no exception,

Furthermore, he had thought of all sorts of ways to die, but he never expected that he would be bitten to death by a water snake.

Klein patted Cruise’s shoulder to calm him down a little before quickly treating his wound.

Klein was also shocked. With his experience, he could tell whether the water snakes were poisonous.

It wouldn’t be a problem even if they were bitten. The current situation had exceeded his expectations.

Klein quickly used the dagger to cut open Cruise’s pants. He discovered that his entire calf had turned black, and black blood was still flowing out of the wound,

He quickly used his hands to make the wound bigger. Then, he gripped both sides of his calf tightly, trying his best to squeeze out the black blood.

James frowned slightly. He had a certain understanding of snake venom.

He could tell that although Klein’s treatment method wasn’t problematic, it was no longer of much use.

This wasn’t scientific. Typically, when a venomous snake bit at such a non-lethal location, the speed of its spread was actually very slow.

It would take at least a few hours for the poison to spread throughout the body, giving people sufficient chances to be rescued…

Cruise’s situation was very different this time. The snake venom rapidly spread, but it only took a few seconds, not giving anyone any chance to save him…

His entire calf had been completely crippled!

“Klein, this won’t do. This method is probably a little too late. The venomous blood has already spread throughout his body, and there’s no way to squeeze it out!”

In other words, unless he squeezed all the blood out of Cruise’s body, there was no turning back.

Upon hearing James say this, Cruise’s heart sank. How could he be so unlucky? There were three people present, but these venomous snakes didn’t bite. Why did it specifically bite him!?

After all, he was a young man. Cruise’s mental fortitude wasn’t high, and he had already begun to cry and speak ill of himself.

“Am I hopeless? I’m about to leave this beautiful world. I’m really unwilling to be bitten to death by the snakes that I hate the most. Ah! I’m still young. I really don’t want to die.”

Klein frowned tightly. Although the poison’s effects had indeed exceeded his expectations, he would never give up on his companions so easily.

He put down the dagger in his hand and racked his brains, recalling the little bit of knowledge he had about snake venom.

Klein thought for a moment before saying, “It looks like the one in this cave is very different from what we generally know. Don’t forget the gigantic eagle we saw earlier…”

“You mean to say that all the animals here have undergone a mutation, and the water snakes here are not only venomous, but their poison spreads very quickly?”

“If that’s the case, with our current medical knowledge, there’s no way we can quickly detoxify the poison.”

From James’ point of view, since someone was injured, it would be better to return home first and find the antidote for Cruise first.

However, Klein shook his head gently. It was too late. If he brought Cruise out now, he would probably die on the way!
