Chapter 235: Snatching Food From the Snake
At this moment, Bell’s attention was focused on the jaguar that was trying to escape.
There was a moderate wound on Bell’s back.
In addition, his shoulder blade was probably injured to a certain extent.
If he let this guy escape like this, he would suffer a huge loss.
Therefore, Bell determinedly chased the jaguar.
When this jaguar’s stamina was exhausted, he could go forward and catch his prey.
However, just as Bell was thinking, the fleeing jaguar stopped.
Its beastly instincts made it sense danger.
Not far ahead, a pair of cold eyes were staring at Bell and the jaguar.
Bell retreated reflexively and aimed the camera in the direction of the eyes.
The jaguar was about to dodge.
However, it was already seriously injured. Its bodily functions had deteriorated, and its strength was insufficient.
Before it could react in time, a green anaconda as thick as a bucket jumped out of the thick layer of dead leaves.
A green anaconda was not fast, but that was only when it was moving. If it was in hiding and suddenly attacked, it would be very fast.
More importantly, this jaguar was already seriously injured.
Its condition was very serious.
The green anaconda opened its huge mouth and struck the jaguar’s neck.
Immediately after, its thick body wrapped around the jaguar like vines.
The entangled jaguar could only wail.
This situation was the same as two dogs fighting for a bone, and a third ran away with it.
Bell stood on the spot and looked at the scene before him. The excited expression on his face collapsed.
He did not expect this matter to end so dramatically.
The prey he had risked his life to obtain was actually picked up by a green anaconda.
But no matter how unwilling Bell was, he did not dare to do anything.
He was not this guy’s match in his current state.
The green anaconda in front of him was not particularly long. It looked to be only about four meters long, but its thick snake body was still very terrifying.
To be precise, almost all the green anacondas were this thick. This was their unique size.
At the same length, the green anaconda was nearly twice as thick as the reticulated python.
Their thick bodies could easily swallow larger prey.
Even a top predator like black caiman was on their menu.
The green anaconda tightened its body.
The jaguar trapped in it also struggled violently.
But it was obvious that its struggle was getting weaker.
The already injured jaguar could not withstand the strangulation of the green anaconda.
Bell sighed as he watched from afar.
“In the Amazon rainforest, jaguars can be said to be the top existence in the pyramid of predators.
Under normal circumstances, a green anaconda of this length will not dare to attack the jaguar.
Otherwise, they will only become prey.
Their powerful bite force can instantly crush the green anaconda’s head.
But the situation now is a little special, so the identities of the hunter and the prey have been swapped.”
In less than a minute, the jaguar trapped by the green anaconda was completely dead.
The green anaconda that had successfully captured its prey began to enjoy its meal.
After eating this jaguar, it would not have to worry about food for at least a week.
Although it was happy, Bell was depressed.
He had risked his life to hunt this.
But now, it was obtained by a third party. Who could withstand this grievance?
Bell was unwilling to return empty-handed.
Because of this thought, Bell did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood on the spot.
He observed carefully.
It was a rare experience to watch the green anaconda eat at such a close distance.
The snake’s mouth opened wider and wider, completely going against the size of its head.
Bell was even worried that this guy would tear its mouth apart.
But clearly, Bell’s worries were unnecessary.
The jaguar’s head had already been swallowed by the green anaconda.
The remaining half of its body was still squirming.
Looking at the squirming esophagus, a bold idea suddenly appeared in Bell’s mind.
Snakes were very slow when eating large prey.
It would take at least a few minutes to devour such a huge jaguar.
During the devouring process, the upper jaw of the snake was completely separated from the lower jaw, and it had almost no offensive ability.
If he attacked now… this thought was like a seed that gradually took root in Bell’s heart.
Bell was unwilling to watch his spoils of war be taken away by others.
Gritting his teeth, Bell’s eyes turned cold again.
He made a decision.
Bell quickly walked up to the green anaconda.
Seeing that there were other creatures nearby, the green anaconda was clearly shocked.
But Bell had no intention toward this guy.
Instead, he took out his dagger and began to cut the jaguar’s hind leg.
The devouring speed of snakes was very slow.
But the speed at which they spat out the prey was very fast.
This was also the result of natural selection.
After all, when eating prey, snakes had no attacking ability and could easily be killed by other predators.
With the evolution of nature, they finally gained this ability.
Bell’s sudden appearance clearly made the green anaconda feel threatened. It immediately spat out the jaguar that it had already swallowed.
Bell only glanced at it and ignored it.
Instead, he sped up.
After the green anaconda spat out the jaguar and closed its jaw, it prepared to attack Bell.
Bell had already cut off one of the jaguar’s hind legs.
Enduring the injuries caused by the jaguar, Bell carried the hind leg on his shoulder and quickly escaped.
Seeing Bell escape, the green anaconda looked in Bell’s direction and did not chase after him. Instead, it stayed and continued to swallow the jaguar.
The audience in the live-stream saw Bell’s actions and started commenting.
“The Great Bell!”
“Haha, tower steal!”
“This is really awesome!”
“Why does this scene look funny?”
“Bell, don’t be a coward! Charge! Kill him! You’re the most handsome guy in the Amazon rainforest today!”
