Sorry, Our Captain Is a True All-Rounder

Chapter 107: Chapter 107: The Emerald King Snake Wins

The two snakes were locked in a desperate struggle, while Lin Jingjing and her team kept their distance, afraid of getting caught in the commotion.

"Is that... Xiao Lü?" Shi Feng asked, his lips trembling.

"Yes," Lin Jingjing replied, her face ashen.

The forest was now damp. The snow from yesterday had melted, soaking everything.

After their earlier scuffle, they were all filthy from head to toe.

"No way... Can Xiao Lü really get this strong?" Shi Feng stammered, his lips still trembling.

The broadcast drone flew high above, capturing both massive snakes on camera.

Compared to the other teams, many viewers found that this cooking squad was actually more exciting and suspenseful to watch.

[Holy crap, this stream is intense!]

[Damn it, I should have been watching this stream from the start. Those five from the Sixth Corps are driving me insane.]

[Arguing over such a small thing... I’m speechless.]

[Why are there two giant snakes? I recognize the Speckled Venomous Snake, but what’s the other one that’s completely green?]

[That green one looks a lot like an ancient, extinct snake mentioned in the encyclopedia of fauna—the Emerald King Snake.]

[It’s actually a King Snake!]

[Then aren’t those five going to die here?]

The newcomers didn’t know Lin Jingjing had summoned the Emerald King Snake. Seeing the two massive serpents fighting, they feared everyone would die.

[The captain summoned the Emerald King Snake, don’t worry!]

The comment section was buzzing with activity, and right where Lin Jingjing was, the two snakes were fighting with equal fervor.

The Speckled Venomous Snake was no match for the Emerald King Snake at all. Moreover, the Emerald King Snake’s venom was far more potent.

After a few exchanges, the Emerald King Snake’s tail coiled tightly around the Speckled Venomous Snake’s body. It opened its cavernous maw, bit down hard on its opponent’s neck, and injected its venom.

The Speckled Venomous Snake thrashed its tail. It was incredibly strong; one powerful swipe snapped a large nearby tree in half.

It struggled violently, but the Emerald King Snake’s coils only tightened. Within a mere minute, the thrashing Speckled Venomous Snake went still and died.

The Emerald King Snake then slowly unwound its tail and released its bite on the other snake’s neck.

Wary that its opponent might still be alive, it nudged the body with its tail. Seeing no movement, the Emerald King Snake finally slithered toward Lin Jingjing and her team.

Shi Feng watched the Emerald King Snake approach, his grip on Mo Xuan’s hand tightening.

Mo Xuan couldn’t help but yelp in pain. "What are you doing? You’re hurting my hand!" he hissed at Shi Feng in a low voice.

"I’m scared." Shi Feng let go of his hand, his voice trembling as he looked at him.

The viewers couldn’t help but roast him for this, especially Captain Li, who was cursing the loudest from his office.

"Just as I thought, a pretty boy. Scared of a snake like that. Unacceptable. After this competition is over, I’m going to put him through desensitization training."

"How can a soldier be afraid of snakes!"

"Useless pretty boy! Trash!"

Captain Li rubbed his hands together, watching Shi Feng look like he was about to cry. A new training regimen was already forming in his mind.

Mo Xuan knew he had been bitten by a snake as a child. Once bitten, twice shy.

Mo Xuan sighed, then put an arm around his shoulder to comfort him. "Don’t be afraid. This snake won’t do anything to you."

"This is Sister Lin’s snake. You think her snake would hurt you?"

"If it did, Sister Lin would kill it herself."

Even though he knew the snake wouldn’t harm them, Shi Feng was still terrified.

The memory of being bitten by that corn snake as a child was still vivid in his mind. He couldn’t just will himself not to be scared.

The Emerald King Snake was wounded, but it didn’t seem to care. It proudly extended its head to Lin Jingjing and let out a series of hisses.

’Master, aren’t I amazing!’

’I killed it!’

’Master, praise me!’

Lin Jingjing reached out and stroked the Emerald King Snake’s head. Some of its scales had been torn off during the fight, and blood oozed from the wounds. It was covered in injuries.

"Excellent. Very strong," Lin Jingjing praised. "Xiao Lü, you truly live up to your name as a King Snake. You have the air of a king."

At its master’s praise, the Emerald King Snake excitedly thumped its tail on the ground a few times.

It was so strong that each thump shook the ground, making everyone a bit unsteady on their feet.

Lin Jingjing steadied it, a smile touching her lips as she saw how happy it was. "Alright, go back and heal. I’ll call you again when we’re in danger."

’Yes, Master!’ With one final HISS, the Emerald King Snake vanished.

Some of the viewers who didn’t know the whole story completely lost their minds when they saw this.

[What about that huge Emerald King Snake? How did it just disappear!]

[Whoa, does this woman use magic or something? She made the Emerald King Snake vanish into thin air!]

[The captain summoned that Emerald King Snake. The only place you can summon from is the Spiritual World, so that snake must be her spiritual pet!]

After this message appeared in the comments, the feed paused for a few seconds before exploding with new messages.

[Is she that strong?]

[To be able to summon an animal from the Spiritual World, doesn’t her spiritual power have to be 2S or higher?]

[Someone that strong is just the captain of a cooking squad? What a waste of talent.]

Lin Jingjing couldn’t see the comments. With the crisis averted, they walked over to the corpse of the Speckled Venomous Snake.

They couldn’t eat this snake. The Emerald King Snake had injected it with its venom, which was even more potent. Eating it would just be a faster way to die.

However, the snake’s body still had many valuable materials, like its skin, bones, gallbladder, and venom glands.

All of these could be sold for a very good price.

Time was short, so Lin Jingjing tossed the entire snake into her Space Ring.

They continued onward, and wild rabbits and pheasants gradually began to appear.

Lin Jingjing took the Feng He hair tie she’d been using for her hair and, with a forked branch, fashioned a slingshot. She stood on high ground, took aim with the stones she had collected, and prepared to fire.

Seeing this, many in the viewing room furrowed their brows, and some even made snide remarks.

"She thinks she can hunt a pheasant with that crude slingshot after just throwing it together? That’s just wishful thinking."

"What’s the use of having strong spiritual power if you’re still an idiot?"

"If she actually hits it, I’ll do a hundred push-ups!"

As soon as the official finished speaking, Lin Jingjing fired the stone.

When it came to shooting, Lin Jingjing was a crack shot who never missed.

The pheasant, which had been strolling leisurely, was struck in the head by Lin Jingjing’s shot and knocked out cold.

Seeing this, Shi Feng and Gu Kaiwen, who were hiding nearby, rushed forward to grab the unconscious bird.
