Chapter 133: Sensory Overload Training, Start! (Part 3)

Don barely had time to catch his breath before his superhuman hearing picked up a faint, almost imperceptible hiss. 

The hair on the back of his neck stood up as he instinctively turned around, eyes scanning the darkness for the source. Then, he saw them—two glowing eyes, unblinking and filled with predatory intent. 

They were much larger than the rat's eyes he'd encountered earlier, and before he could fully register what he was facing, the eyes seemed to flash forward, closing the distance between them in a blur.

"Shit!" Don barely managed to raise the crowbar in front of him, the metal bar jamming into the creature's mouth just in time. 

The impact jolted through his arms, and he strained to hold his ground against the immense force. As the creature pushed forward, its body slithering closer, Don got a good look at his attacker—a giant snake, easily the size of a small car, with scales that shimmered in the dim light.
