21. Fish Investigators
"Judging from the map, the location of the new camp is not far from the location where we last found the poisonous demon bird and the suspected traces of the molten mountain dragon, and when the new camp is set up, we can quickly supply nearby, and then start the hunting of the poisonous demon bird!"
Kelly opened the atlas and found the page where the ancient tree forest was recorded, "It's really exciting!" ”
Alyssa and Fichte rode on the Pterodactyl and once again arrived at the southwest camp in the Ancient Tree Forest.
This time, it was Kelly and Barn who took the lead and arrived at the Ancient Tree Forest camp in advance, but when the two landed, they only found Kelly alone in the camp, and Barn didn't know where they went.
"You mean Senior Barn, he went to the candidate location to investigate the situation first, and he said that he would go directly to him after you came." Kelly made a helpless expression, "I didn't expect Senior Bath to be so positive. Oh yes! He also left a message for the guide worm, if you get lost, you can follow the guide worm to find him. ”
Alyssa took the cage from Kelly and hung it on her entourage Nila.
"Without further ado, let's get off as soon as possible." Fichte glanced at the sky, and faint dark clouds were slowly rising from the sea level, and it looked like it would rain within the day.
"Hmm!" Alyssa nodded, hugged her partner Kelly, and followed Fichte out of the camp along the path.
It's still the familiar tree hole, but on one side of the tree hole, where it was originally blocked by boulders, I don't know when there was an extra path.
"Presumably to open up a new path for exploring the ancient tree forest, a path that has only recently been opened." Fichte stretched out his hand and wiped a handful of the rubble on the ground, and after observing it for a moment, he said, "Judging by the traces of the damage and the degree of weathering and oxidation of the rock, it took no more than three days to explode, and it must have been opened shortly after we left the last time." ”
"That'...... Senior, should we ......" Alyssa was a little moved, as a hunter, she was always curious about the unknown.
The appearance of this path in front of her, which had never been explored, made Alyssa a little tempted to step on it.
"There's no need, let's go on the road last time, familiar, safer." Fichte refused without thinking.
While he would love to explore new paths, there is still more important work to be done.
Seeing the girl's disappointed expression, Fichte suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, as if he had imposed his own requirements on her.
So he was relieved: "After this mission is completed, it is not too late for us to explore again." ”
"Good! Seniors, that's it! The girl smiled.
"Let's go, it's time to go."
"Uh-huh!"
...
"Roar!"
A low dragon roar sounded in the small fields with abundant water and grass, and a large group of herbivorous dragons scattered in panic, and the chaotic footsteps shook their eardrums, and even Mizusawa was almost trampled dry by the dragons' feet and hooves.
A yellow-green giant beast swooped out, slapped a lone herbivorous dragon to the ground with one palm, and its big mouth suddenly expanded, swallowing the herbivore dragon with a body size of more than three meters into it whole!
"Senior, it's a big thief dragon!" Alyssa called out in surprise.
The two of them hid in a bush, luckily dodging the onslaught of the chaotic beast tide of the herbivorous dragons.
Alyssa became excited when she saw the Great Thief Dragon that caused the chaos. Since the last time she missed the big thief dragon, she has been very unconvinced, always thinking about "shame", and now she is even more excited to see the "culprit", if it weren't for Fichte still around, she would probably have to rush up to give the big guy a knife!
"Don't be impulsive, don't cause trouble." Fichte pressed the girl who was about to move, "This is just a normal hunt of the Great Thief Dragon in the hunting area, there is no need to make a move." ”
"But, but......" Alyssa looked at Fichte's serious face, and couldn't say anything to refute for a long time, so she could only respond in frustration, "Okay." ”
"That guy is gone, let's go too." Fichte glanced at the great thief dragon that had disappeared at the end of the field, got up and patted the girl who was still crouching in place, and chuckled.
"Oh......"
Just as the two of them turned around and wanted to leave, an earth-shattering roar exploded not far behind them!
"Ang ——!!"
I saw that the yellow-green figure suddenly flew out from the position where it had previously entered the forest, and smashed the field.
The Great Thief Dragon lay on the ground wailing and struggling, spitting out green acid and minced flesh from its mouth, and its swollen belly quickly became shriveled.
Just as the two of them wondered what was going on, and were about to run forward to observe, a pair of hands pulled the two back, and before Fichte could see who was behind him, the whole person slammed into the water.
"Shhhh Someone whispered softly in his ear.
The two of them resolutely shut up, in a place like the New World, there is not too much deceit, and it is already very hard for everyone to survive, and there is not so much energy to seek other people's property. Besides, the people of the New World, their belongings are managed by the stronghold, and they can't be snatched away at all.
What's more, the two of them who are new to the fifth phase of the group have not offended anyone, so naturally no one will come to harm them.
Therefore, the two of them were not very wary of their kind, and obediently suppressed the doubts in their hearts, closed their mouths, and obediently squatted in the pool water, observing the outside world from the grass motionlessly.
Before the sound of water had subsided, Fichte heard the sound of "rumbling" footsteps, and the sound was unusually familiar!
"Jaw-Jawed Dragon!"
I saw a terrifying giant beast with a body size of more than fifteen meters, jumping out of the forest, and the huge soles of its feet slammed on the body of the great thief dragon that was still struggling.
It is one of the predators that stands at the top of the ancient tree forest, an unstoppable thug - the brute-jawed dragon!
The long howl of the sky shook the heavens and the earth, startling the birds and winged dragons in the forest.
It buried its head, tore off a piece of tender meat from the belly of the Great Thief Dragon, and swallowed it in one gulp, shaking its head as if it were eating some peerless delicacy.
Fichte couldn't help but swallow.
This guy actually understands food, and knows that the meat in the chest and abdomen of the Great Thief Dragon is the fattest and tender! Good fellow, if it is paired with Fichte's own baked sauce, he can eat a whole piece of breast meat of hundreds of pounds in one meal!
Thinking of this, Fichte's tears were about to slide down the corners of his mouth.
It's really unassuming! At this time, you should go up and grab that piece of meat from this guy's mouth!
Fichte touched the Kataju sword hanging behind him.
At this time, Alyssa's soft and delicate voice suddenly came to his ears: "Senior, it's that big guy......"
Her voice sounded a little nervous, and Fichte suddenly realized that he was not hunting alone, nor was he following the clever Saldin and Kulo.
If you make a rash move at this time, Alyssa will definitely come forward to help, and it will be easy to be injured by mistake at that time.
Although the Jaw Dragon suit worn by Alyssa was at the same level as the defense performance of the big guy in front of her, the difference in strength was still too great.
Fichte didn't feel comfortable letting a budding newcomer face this kind of terrifying monster that almost overturned himself.
"After she has been training for a while and has truly mastered the essence of the Taidao, it's time for her to face the Barbarian Jaw Dragon alone!"
"Don't worry, this is the territory of the big one, and every time a big thief dragon comes to 'poach', it will bite it to death, and then eat a piece as a warning. When it's done eating, it's going to patrol other territories. ”
There was a whisper from behind the two, which sounded like a man's voice, speaking unhurried and calm.
Before he finished speaking, he heard the barbarian jawed dragon in the field roar again, and then disappeared at the other end of the field with swaggering steps.
"Whew! This guy is finally gone, and he can fish again! ”
The unidentified man behind him laughed and stood up, patted them on the shoulders to signal that they could get up, and then crawled to the shore with agility, as if they had been tempered a thousand times.
The man shook off the water without healing, picked up a straw hat on the ground and put it on his head, and took out a slender fishing rod from somewhere, whistling and hanging bait on the hook.
"Hello, thank you very much for your help, may I ask who you are?" Alyssa felt wet and sticky, and was uncomfortable, but according to etiquette, she asked very politely.
"Oh! I almost forgot, it looks like it's all fresh faces, you're the new fifth group, right? I'm a fish investigator for the Investigation Mission, welcome to the New World! The man looked very enthusiastic, but he didn't give his name.
The two didn't care, after all, there were all kinds of weirdos in the investigation team, and those weirdos who only remembered their positions or titles, they saw a lot of them in the stronghold.
"Fish...... Investigators? ”
"Haha, yes! I am the one in charge of investigating all the fish in the New World, and fishing is my joy of life, whether I am asleep or awake...... Accidentally dominate all the fish anglers over there...... When I was looking for more kinds of fish, I was caught by the investigation team haha!
I'm a well-known fisherman! I'm currently conducting fish surveys in the New World, and I'm looking for a 'fishing partner' that can compete with me. I don't know if you have any ideas to compete with me?
If you're interested, come to me! Let me see what you're capable of. By the way, the taste of fish in the New World is completely different from that over there! ”
Alyssa listened to the fish investigator's tirade in a daze, her eyes glazed with confused circles, she had no interest in fishing such a gadget.
It was Fichte, who heard the "taste... It's completely different", the face released a "divine light", and that look was like a red flower in the winter snow!
"Really? Then let me have a good taste of the strength of the fish in the New World! ”
™ It's on fire!
"Hahaha, I'm just waiting for your words, then, let's test my strength!"
