She unfolded the snakeskin. When she saw the burn marks on it, her expression changed slightly. She turned to the mage girl and asked, "Shanshan, have you seen this kind of magic before?"
The mage girl named Shanshan stepped forward and looked at it with a surprised expression on her face.
The green snakeskin was surrounded by burn marks, showing a spiral shape. Moreover, it was obviously squeezed before it died, because there were obviously signs of being absorbed around the burn marks.
"G.o.ds above!" The mage girl muttered, "Maybe this isn't magic, but a red-hot iron chain. That person used the red-hot iron chain to strangle the Green Snake to death!"
"Didn't you feel the fluctuation of magic?"
The mage girl said, "Yes, but it doesn't work! The nature of the fire element is violent and scattered. They can't condense into whips or vines, so I think it should be something like a chain…"
The warrior fell into deep thought. It looked at the traces it had dug and said, "In other words, not only does he have the magic cores of two magic beasts, but he also has a ripened Strange Fruit!"
They had also smelled the fragrance in the air.
Speaking of this, the three people narrowed their eyes.
In this place where resources were scarce, these three things were extremely tempting to them.
"Cook, get your battle pet to track that person's scent."
That warrior stood up and said to the ranger beside him with an expressionless face, "Looking at the traces around him, he should be alone. This is a good opportunity for us!"
"How fragrant!"
Su Han sat on a branch and forcefully ate all of the Green Snake alone.
He clicked his tongue and praised, "The meat of a flying dragon is the best meat. The meat of this Green Snake may not be as good as a flying dragon, but it still has a different taste."
After eating the whole snake, he ate another seven or eight strange fruits and suddenly felt his body heating up.
The Green Snake
Su Han took out the attribute-free magic core and sat down cross-legged. While digesting the Green Snake's flesh and blood, he absorbed the magic core. After more than half an hour, he opened his eyes.

The Strange Fruit and the meat had brought him a huge increase.
His physical fitness had already reached tier-1, which was basically equivalent to an adult man.
His spiritual power had also increased by 500 points, now reaching 4700 points.
"I'm one step closer to becoming a tier-1 mage!"
Under the effect of the Strange Fruit, Su Han digested the power of the Green Snake, but the power of the Strange Fruit did not dissipate. He suddenly felt hungry all by himself.
He rubbed his belly and shook his head. "I can't eat Strange Fruit carelessly in the future. The effect of digestion is too overbearing."
"I have to eat more!"
At this moment, there was movement in the forest, which made him alert.
At night, the predators in the forest would appear in groups, which was very dangerous.
Su Han raised his nose. He was now at the downwind. His years of hunting experience with his father allowed him to distinguish the species of beasts based on their smell.
"It's a tier-1 Demon Wolf, and there's only one." Su Han said curiously, "Demon wolves hunt in groups. How can there be a lone demon wolf?"
Su Han swallowed his saliva and said, "Little wolf, be good. Since you're so unlucky, let me eat you!"
The Demon Wolf sniffed around on the ground.
It slowly approached the big tree where Su Han was, completely unaware of the impending danger.
In the next moment, a fiery red vine shot out from the tree with a clatter, tightly wrapping around it.
The Demon Wolf howled and was strangled, hanging from the tree.
Su Han quickly jumped down from the tree to prevent it from howling. He used the Xiphodon's teeth to hit its vital point, ending its life.
"It's enough for today's meal!"
Su Han's eyes lit up. He carried the wolf corpse on his back and disappeared into the forest.
A few minutes after he left, the three rangers hurried over.
When the ranger named Cook saw the burnt wolf fur on the ground, he roared loudly, "My battle pet!"
The warrior gloomily looked at the level footprints on the ground and said, "He can't escape. He killed your battle pet. He must have found us. Let's continue chasing!"
Night fell. In a hunter's cabin in the forest, Su Han skillfully skinned and deboned the Demon Wolf.
He built a fire. Not long after, the wolf meat began to ooze oil, and the fragrance a.s.sailed his nostrils.
Su Han tore off a wolf leg and chewed it in large mouthfuls. He praised, "Eating big pieces of meat and drinking big bowls of wine, this kind of life is really wonderful!"
