Theo saw the creature in front of him with vigilance. He knew what it looked like from images. There were colored images of it in many of the beast taming guides, but seeing it in person was different.
The Thornhide Viper was all green in color, its body scaly, much like any snake one could find on Earth. It's eyes were just like that of a snake. It looked at everyone with what Theo felt like was hatred.
Except for the big thorns present all around its body. Theo didn't understand the use of most of the thorns on its body, yet now was not the time to think about it.
The viper hissed at everyone. It seemed to have expected company, but the pup had deceived it into standing in front of so many enemies, especially the big boar.
"Mantis, get ready to attack," Theo said as he flung the mantis into the air.
The mantis traveled through the air and gracefully landed on the ground, its eyes fixed on the scaly green snake in front of them.
