Chapter 709: Chapter 404 Do you have a little sense of public morals?!_3
Durken was shocked, “Just a tiny flea creature, that’s enough for you to fill your teeth? Does it fill you up?”
The giant snake shook its head pitifully, “No, I can only eat two and then go to sleep, I’m starved.”
Turns out it was relying on hibernation to delay its hunger. If it eats a few and then goes to sleep, bringing its life metabolism to the lowest, it will wake up the next time with the flea creature numbers having replenished.
But isn’t that way of living too stifling? Like only being able to eat once a day, scraping only a mouthful each meal, a lot of people would starve to madness. It’s hard to control oneself not to gulp down the flea creatures and flame rabbits all at once.
But the giant snake managed to control itself, as did the flea creatures. Because those who couldn’t control themselves are already gone. In an environment of extreme food scarcity, there must have been brutal elimination to reach the current balance.
Ange turned over his hand, revealing a handful of elf beans, and handed them to the giant snake. Right now, he didn’t have much of other foods, only an abundance of elf beans.
...
“For me?” The giant snake asked in surprise.
Ange nodded, he was a skeleton accustomed to equivalent exchange.
He casually tossed a bean into the still half-open mouth of the giant snake. The half-open mouth was already bigger than a basin, Ange could throw it in even with his eyes closed.
The giant snake clamped his mouth shut, not feeling like he bit into anything. It didn’t understand manners, and began to grumble, “Either don’t give at all, or give more, it’s not even enough to stuff the gaps between teeth…”
Before the snake could finish speaking, it felt a constant surge of warmth in its body, a sense of fullness it had never experienced before filling its entire body. The constant hunger that it had been enduring disappeared without a trace under the surge of this warmth.
Soon, the giant snake let out a satisfied burp, it was full.
Ange had calculated its body size when throwing, throwing a few more beans would overfeed it to death.
“This… I… burp, so full, what treasure is this?” The giant snake was ecstatically incoherent.
Hard to imagine what it feels like for a giant snake that has been starved for more than a thousand years to be full for the first time, right? Hard to imagine, because no one here needs to eat.
“Elf beans.” Negris chipped in.

“Is there more? Can you give me some more? I’ve never been full before. I feel like I’m full of energy right now.” The giant snake excitedly said.
“No, you can answer a few questions. Giving you a handful is already too much. Alright, go back to sleep, we are leaving.” Negris responded.
This was unacceptable to the snake. Given the rare opportunity to have its fill, it was anxious beyond belief, almost couldn’t resist attacking. However, the power of these people before it was too terrifying. Ultimately, it mustered the restraint, quick thinking, it asked, “Where are you guys headed?”
“To the end of this road.” Negris replied.
“Ride on me, ride on me. I can take you there, as long as you keep me full, I can carry you to the end of the void.” The giant snake eagerly said.
“No need, we’ll walk.” Negris didn’t want to carry a creature with such a large appetite along, those elf beans from earlier were enough to feed a large cat for ages.
“Walk? Do you know how long this road is? Once a yellow lizard man came here, he said it takes three thousand years to walk to the end of this road.” The giant snake used the concept of time it had just learned.
Three thousand years?! If you walk twenty kilometers a day, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, three thousand years, you could walk over twenty million kilometers.
This number was absurd. Even if they discounted by 90 percent, that would still be over two million kilometers. Even a 99 percent discount was two hundred thousand kilometers. When would they finish that journey on foot?
“How can that be? Are you joking? Your nonsense is too outrageous.” Negris shouted, then seeming to remember something, asked, “Is the lizard man you mentioned this kind?”
Negris opened a page in his book, revealing the image of the Aolong Magister, Gargul.
“Yes, him.” The giant snake said.
Negris was a little uncertain now because if it was the spatial mage Aolong, his words could have been true. Was this road really millions of kilometers long?
Everyone glanced at each other a few times. The Great Sage summoned the Soul Car and it sped off.
“Come on, big snake, catch up, if you can catch up, we’ll ride on you.” Negris was ranting at the giant snake behind him.
The giant snake chased until it was about to spit out bile, but it watched in despair as the Soul Car sped away. Finally, it had to stop, cursing and muttering, it returned.
On the tenth day, the Great Sage couldn’t hold on anymore. Ange took over driving the Soul Car, which sped along like this for two months until it finally arrived at the end of the Eternity Road.
From afar, everyone clearly saw a Black Crystal Skeleton standing at the end of the road. It was in a forward stepping position, frozen there, with no sense of any soul fluctuations from its body.
“Your Majesty! Your Majesty!”
“King! King! What’s the matter with you? Wake up, don’t die! King!”
Durken and the Great Sage rushed to the Black Crystal Skeleton, crying out emotionally.
“Who’s wailing over there! It’s so noisy, it’s killing me! Don’t people have any sense of civic virtue anymore?!” An angry voice suddenly rang out.
