3. Encounter, Molten Mountain Dragon!

"Do you think there will be a secret of the ancient dragon in the New World?"

The head of the plane looked at Alyssa expectantly.

For a person like her who has no hunting experience but is able to join the recommendation group directly, it is impossible to say that she has no background, maybe the person behind Alyssa has revealed some information to her.

Alyssa shook her head in confusion.

She wasn't even a budding hunter, and apart from some of the basics she had learned from Fichte recently, most of her knowledge of monsters came from legends.

Even though she was a member of one of the few "recommendation groups" in the fleet, she probably didn't know as much about ancient dragons as ordinary hunters.

"Damn, there's still no news...... "The head of the plane was a little frustrated.

Accurate information is one of the most important guarantees for a qualified hunter. The head of the plane, as a good hunter, naturally collects useful information from all sides.

It's just that for the hunters, all their information is too little for this investigation activity!

Especially against ancient dragons, you can't be too careful.

Natural disasters have never been able to be fought by numbers, and the existence that has been able to fight against ancient dragons for generations is a small number of elites who have enough information and are powerful themselves, and they also need excellent luck!

Luckily, their mission this time was not to banish or hunt the ancient dragons, but to investigate in the New World.

"The ancient dragon carrying the volcano, the molten mountain dragon ......," Izumi muttered to herself.

"Click, click, click......"

The two people in front of them were annoyed by the ancient dragon, but Alyssa was attracted by the footsteps behind her, and when she turned to look, she only saw a petite back, holding a large plate of barbecue steak to the table by the cabin window.

This back seems to be ······

The head of the plane took a sip of wine to adjust his mood, fiddled with his right hand, stood up with his left hand on the table, leaned forward, and made his voice appear passionate and energetic: "It has been about forty years since the investigation began, and the guild has sent our fifth investigation team, and it seems that we are looking forward to solving the mystery of the migration of the ancient dragon!" ”

After saying that, the head of the plane looked at Alyssa who had her eyes drifting to the other side, feeling a little embarrassed. Izumiko on the side took the girl's hand on the table, pulled her attention back, and smiled: "Anyway, the recommendation group seems to be a team of two in principle. Have you already met your partner? ”

Alyssa's eyes lit up and she remembered! That person seems to be his partner, when the Great Elder spoke to the fifth group training, he had noticed her!

Alyssa opened her mouth to speak, but she heard a "bang" from the table near the window, but it was the girl who passed by earlier who was startled and knocked down the chair under her. She quickly trotted to the window, pulled down a small monocular on her head, and peered out into the distance.

The people around her were taken aback by her sudden movements.

Alyssa looked at the "partner", then at the two seniors in front of her, got up and bowed and apologized: "Senior, I'm sorry for me to leave and go see my partner." She gestured to the girl by the window.

······

"Sardin, do you hear anything?"

On the foredeck of the three-masted galleon, Fichte stared at the sea ahead with a serious expression, as if there were fierce beasts that chose to devour people.

Saltin, who was covered in black, was lying on top of the barrel, holding a brown retinue suit and a sapper shovel in his arms, with a helpless face, "I can't hear it, I can't hear the world anymore, Fichte abuses the retinue Meow······"

"Bell—"

Fichte's face was full of black lines when he heard it, and after listening to it for a long time, he couldn't help it, and reached out and gave him a burst.

"Don't hurry up yet! The sound of the waves suddenly changed. Fichte looked at the slowly rising black shadows at the junction of sea and sky - soon to land!

"The sound of waves and land clashing shouldn't be like this, it's probably something that has changed at the bottom of the sea. We follow the ancient dragons, and natural disasters can occur at any time! Perhaps, the molten mountain dragon will swim under our feet······"

Before Fichte could finish speaking, the whole ship shook violently, and countless bubbles emerged and burst from the bottom of the water, releasing billowing smoke!

The waves are turbulent, like a volcanic eruption at the bottom of the sea, making a sound of a catastrophe, dull and depressing, but it resounded in the sky!

The pterosaur perched on the mast of the great wooden ship flew and circled in all directions, obscuring the full moon on the horizon, and the suppressed roar of panic and the sound of the stormy waves rose and fell.

It's really whatever you want! Fichte cursed secretly, and his body instinctively reacted quickly.

"Hold on!" Fichte whistled, raised his hand to launch the hook claw on the catapult, fixed it to the claw of a pterodactyl that heard the sound, and at the same time picked up Saldin, who was still putting equipment on his body, and slowly lifted it into the air.

Saldin scrambled to grab his bag not far from him, and the whole cat hung in Fichte's hand.

By the way, in addition to the protective gear and weapons that are always on the body, most of the hunters' equipment is carried in their bags and carried by their entourage, which helps to improve the efficiency of hunting, such as wild survival equipment such as stones for sharpening knives and various medicines, most of which are packed in their bags.

As the pterosaur lifted into the air, Fichte's body quickly balanced in the air.

The sea below arches high like a huge blister, and the whole ship is held up high by the sea, and the inclination is constantly increasing, getting closer and closer to vertical.

Hundreds of pterosaurs hovered in the air, many of them with Fichte-like veterans on their feet – experienced hunters who had to learn to judge the situation at all times and make the most appropriate decisions to protect themselves.

But more people were still running around in a panic on the boat, and some people saw others following the pterosaur into the air, and they also learned to fire hook claws to hang the pterodactyl; Others jumped into the sea in a panic and disappeared after rolling; Others were knocked unconscious on the hull of the ship; Still others cling to the boat, trying to wait for the boat to be regained control afterwards······

"Whoa—"

The sound of breaking water resounded in the sky, and a huge rock shell with a glowing red light rushed out of the water, and white steam rose!

It is the ancient dragon that carries the volcano, the lava dragon, which carries the volcano, or rather, it is a volcano itself, the magma flows in its veins, and the sputtered magma cools and condenses on its back into an indestructible huge volcano!

"Gah!" "Gah!" "Gah!"

A group of brownish-gray pterosaurs from unknown sources suddenly appeared, hovering around the volcano, and the trained pterosaurs in the Fifth Regiment's fleet scattered in astonishment.

In just a few moments, the volcano rising from the bottom of the sea has reached a height of more than 300 meters and is still rising!

"Everyone, the New World is ahead, no matter what method you use, be sure to arrive at the New World Investigation Base before dawn!" The hoarse and old voice did not know what method was used to spread throughout the sea, and it was still very clear.

Fichte could tell that it was the voice of the old captain, who had arrived in the New World earlier than the first regiment, and who was also the chief of the guild's fleet, and it was he who was responsible for leading the fifth regiment to the New World this time.

The thin old captain stood bare-chested in the bow of the ship, and let the waves be rough and the ship churned at his feet, and he could not be shaken in the slightest. It seems that as long as he stands on the sea, everything cannot knock him down!

"Roar——!"

The earth-shattering roar of the dragon shattered the night sky, and under the front cover of the huge volcano, a huge head slowly stretched out, with deep purple-red scales, and a sharp horn with orange-red light on the tip of the nose. It seemed to float upwards for breath, and after a roar, its head retracted into the thick crust, but it seemed that because of the approaching land, it did not continue to dive to the bottom of the sea, but floated on the surface and swam forward.

The water from the volcano has been re-flowed back into the sea, or has been evaporated, and most of the ships have returned to the sea with the sea.

There is only one one, because of the location, it happens to be in the middle of the back of the molten mountain dragon, after several smashes down, it happened to be stuck on the back of the molten mountain dragon, fortunately, the people on the ship have already risen with the pterosaur and returned to other sea ships.

Wrong! How could those two guys?!

Fichte, who was about to go to the New World stronghold with everyone returning to the ship, suddenly caught a glimpse of two young girls lying on the volcano under the ship, not far away.

The two newcomers didn't know what was going on, and when everyone else ran backwards to try to protect themselves, they rushed up to the bow of the boat, but because it was too steep, coupled with the vibration of the ship hitting the rock wall, they were shaken down, and fell on the back of the molten mountain dragon and passed out.

"It's really unreassuring, these two guys." Fichte whistled, and a pterosaur hovering in the air leaned in, and he threw Saldin on the dragon's back, saying, "Go over and explain the situation to them first, and I'll take care of them both here." ”

Saldin hugged the pterodactyl, then threw his bag back, muttering in his mouth: "I know~ and said that you are not the ······ of control"

Although he spoke quietly, Fichte, who had a keen ear, could hear it clearly.

"I'll clean you up when I get back!" Fichte's eyes widened, causing Saldin to shrink back from the pterodactyl.

"Go with confidence, stay safe, don't capsize in the gutter!" Saldin urged the pterosaur to fly away, shouting at the same time.

Fichte ignored him, and drove the pterosaur straight down to the place where the two men had fallen.

The Molten Mountain Dragon is worthy of the title of the ancient dragon that bears the volcano, and before it even got close, Fichte had already felt its amazing temperature.

"It's really bad, in this case, it is estimated that it will not take half an hour to become dehydrated and comatose······" Fichte let go of the hook on the pterodactyl's feet and landed smoothly on the dragon's back.

Except for the three protruding volcanoes and the surrounding raised rock walls, the back of the molten mountain dragon is a very flat volcanic limestone shell, and the surface is bare and flashes of red light, which should be a relatively fragile part similar to blood vessels and organs.

The heat rises and twists the air.

Fichte wiped a handful of sweat that had just come out, walked over to Alyssa with a wry smile, and crouched down to examine her injuries.

"Hey, I'm lucky, I fell from such a high place and was unharmed······"

Fichte checked on another girl, "It's strange that this one is not even injured, what kind of luck is this!" ”

"Forget it, the place where the ancient dragon exists, there is no other danger except for the ancient dragon itself, it should be regarded as Alyssa's first experience in the new world."

Pouring two bottles of recovery medicine on the two little girls, Fichte muttered to himself to make a decision for them, leaving both of them behind, and it just so happened that the two seemed to be partners, so as to cultivate a tacit understanding.

This herb has an extremely disgusting taste, and although it can greatly promote the recovery of the human body, it will be difficult to swallow due to the nausea reaction of the human body, greatly reducing its recovery effect. Pouring the healing pill on them can help their bodies stay hydrated for a while and on the other hand use its chic smell to wake up the sleeping person.

Fichte wiped a handful of sweat that didn't exist again, and now that he had only been there for a few minutes, he could already feel that his body was gradually dehydrated and his strength was weakening, and he had to get out of here as soon as possible.

He glanced up at the brownish-gray group of pterodactyls hovering overhead······
