"Did I feel that right? No way, I really did communicate with her.
Ever since working and hunting as a group, the problem I had was whether these guys have any human-level intelligence or not, and how they communicate with each other. Although I later realized there is no sound wave communication, there are gesture-based connections with them, like rubbing against each other to show affection and lowering their head in front of others to show obedience. Later, I also got used to it. But now, with this, I think I'll be able to communicate with them more freely. Though I still feels like this ability is limited only to some distinct commands like follow or jump. I think I can only send direct orders to others for now "
While Blanco was thinking to himself, the sound of the snakes echoed through the air.
Chizzz!
The tree that fell to the ground, began to emit a sizzling sound, and started to corrode from the center, revealing the snake on the other side and making a path for it to cross.
Its body was glowing immensely, to the point that even looking at it gave Blanco an itching pain in his eyes.
But Even though Blanco was a bit close to it, the snake didn't kept its eyes on him and focused toward Nixie.
Shhh!
It hissed with a creepy sound and rushed instantly toward her, with a speed Blanco couldn't manage to catch.
"It raged to the point he didn't even bet an eye on anything other than its main target. Seeing how its only focus is Nixie, I doubt she could easily evade it this time. The more this battle goes on, the more disadvantaged we'll be."
The moment the snake rushed toward Nixie, Blanco began to spit out poison from his mouth around the area. Even though he didn't see the snake's movements, he hoped some of them would end up falling upon its body.
Hiss!
Just as Blanco hoped , a drop of poison fell upon the body of the snake, which was rushing toward Nixie without caring about others. The poison from Blanco corroded the surface of the snake's skin, leaving a dark spot on its colorful surface. The snake hissed in pain and changed its direction, rushing toward Blanco, who was already running away from it.

Through the field of bushes, past the giant trees, Blanco ran hurriedly. The snake, with its size and swift movement, rapidly appeared behind Blanco.
Nixie gazed at the snake tailing behind Blanco. She hurriedly tried to run behind it, but at the moment, she suddenly stopped as her expression changed into one of curiosity, like newborns learning something new.
In the next moment, she jumped to a nearby bush and ran toward a different direction.
Hiss!
The snake spat out a ball of corrosive poison toward Blanco, but with his agile and swift movement, Blanco easily dodged the poison.
But Having missed him, the poison landed on a giant tree on the path he's running. Upon colliding with the tree, it was instantly corroded and melted by the poison.
Craaa!
The giant tree fell to the ground, blocking the path where Blanco running. He, who had turned his gaze back to see the snake, didn't have time to see the tree and only saw it at the last moment.
Boom!
The tree fell, causing the earth to shake a bit and flocks of birds to fly away from the nearby trees into the sky, disturbed by the reckless atmosphere.
The snake stopped after getting close to the tree and spat out another ball of poison, melting the tree trunk. While melting, it suddenly saw Blanco, who had put some distance between it and him. On Blanco's body, the mark of a straight line and a line of dots was shining brightly.
Shhh!
The snake hissed and followed behind. The fallen tree was the last remaining part of the few trees close to the area where the rocks and crystals were located, and Blaco was already out of it as the snake entered it.
Blanco was running through the rocks and crystals, trying to hide from it. But the snake could clearly sense his movement through the ground and was confident in not losing Blanco's trail. It felt that Blanco had gone behind a pillar of rocks and was staying behind it, hiding.
The snake slowly followed the trail of Blanco, passing through the rocks and crystals that had extremely sharp edges. As it passed by them, it became extra cautious.
Once it got to the pillar where Blanco was hiding, poison began to drip from its mouth as it crafted another ball of it.
Sssrush!
But suddenly, Blanco, who had hidden behind the pillar of rocks, jumped out in front of the snake. The snake was confused and caught off guard, but it quickly conjured its poison and prepared to spit it at Blanco.
The straight line and dot marks on Blanco's body glowed, and he rushed forward, hitting the body of the snake and pushing it back in the direction it came.
The snake's eyes reverted back towards the way it was pushed, only to see the shining tips of the sharp crystal edges looming at the end. It jerked its body to dodge aside, but its moving was fast, and within a second, it collided with the sharp crystals.
Chus!...
