Chapter 1722
It was a relief that Matthew was prepared. So, when he felt smovement, he immediately retracted his hands
two inches.
A snake in the color of red and black with a triangular-shaped head jumped out with its open mouth and
clammed down.
Its aim was exactly where Matthew's arm was.
If Matthew hadn't moved back in time, the snake would have bitten him.
Since he moved, the snake bit into thin air. When the snake was going to turn around and strike again, Matthew
took his aim.
He reached out to grab the venomous snake's neck before he tightened his grip.
The snake had lost its ability to struggle as Matthew pulled it out of the cave.

Now that Matthew had taken a closer look, the snake wasn't long. Instead, it was short and thick in diameter with
black and red bands all over its body and a triangular-shaped head. There was also vicious liquid on its fangs
indicating that it was indeed a venomous snake.
This snake was rare and extremely venomous. If it was let loose, many people would have been killed.
So, Matthew did not hesitate and killed it to retrieve its gallbladder.
This type of snake's gallbladder had a long history in medicine as it could be used as a unique remedy.
Now that the danger was settled, he reached into the hole again and felt around until he touched a small button.
Pressing on it, he heard a creak before the fake rock mountain, which was the height of a person, slowly opened
to reveal a stone door.
Behind the stone door was pitch darkness, so Matthew whipped out his phone and turned on the flashlight before
walking in.
As soon as he passed the door, it closed.
However, this wasn't a huge issue for Matthew as it was a simple mechanism that he could easily crack.
There was a long walkway made of stone. After walking for 30 feet or so, he turned a corner to see a spacious
stone room. Inside, he smelled something even weirder. It was as if something was rotting away.
Frowning, Matthew started to suspect what type of place this was.
Since the range where the phone's torchlight could shine on was limited, he could not really see the whole stone
room at once. Just as he was about to explore, a gust of strong wish suddenly cfrom the side as if something
was about to knock into him.
The wind was strong and indicated the strength of whatever was coming for him.
He dared not face it head-on and immediately ducked down to roll over to avoid its attack.
Behind him was the thud of something heavy dropping onto the floor before that thing jumped up again at
Matthew.
As he didn't expect it to be so agile, he didn't even have the tto turn around and take a look. He could only
jump out of the way again. Matthew brushed past it in the dark.

It was something furry. So, it could be a big creature covered with fur.
After he landed, he quickly rolled forward a few feet away.
However, as he moved, a huge creature landed on the spot he was at again.
Luckily, Matthew had avoided it and finally had a breather.
He turned his head to look at it with his phone in hand and felt goosebumps crawl all over his body.
Standing behind him was a huge full-grown tiger about 10 feet long.
It probably had always lived in the dark, so when the lights shone on it, it immediately backed up and blinked its
eyes.
However, this also angered the tiger because it roared at Matthew.
Its powerful roar reminded Matthew of how surprised birds would flee the trees when a tiger's roar reverberated
in the forests and mountains!
Ordinary people would have been shocked by its roar and be in shambles, especially since it was in such a small
room. Such a roar had even almost pierced Matthew's eardrum.
