Not A Small-Town Girl

Chapter 197-2

Xavier wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and

said with difficulty, "I’m fine." The blow almost killed him.

Danielle, who was standing on the other side, rushed

towards the giant serpent with her dagger and stabbed it

directly into the snake’s head.

The giant serpent let out a roar, and its huge body

struggled violently. Danielle was almost thrown to the side.

She immediately took out her pistol and fired several shots

at the serpent’s head.

Its blood splattered all over Danielle, and the giant serpent

crashed to the ground with a thud.

"Dad, Mom, Xavier, are you alright?" Danielle hurriedly

asked with concern.

Howard replied, "We’re fine. We barely made any progress

before this big snake attacked us. It’s only going to get

more dangerous the deeper we venture."

Howard looked around vigilantly. Without Danielle around,

they would have been swallowed by that snake just now.
