Perhaps it was the Green Swift Dragon that had exhausted all its bad luck that had been blocked in the way, and the hunters had never encountered any more difficult situations for the rest of the journey, not even the eyes of the Guild when they bypassed the Observatory. The rain in the afternoon is more punctual than a mechanical clock, and before nightfall, the rain washes away the shadowhunters and herbivorous dragons, and the four of them will quietly cross the forest as if they had never been before.

There are only three herbivorous dragons left for the four people to ride together, and the transfer speed will be greatly reduced in any case. This made Feng Chen see the human town again, it was already the afternoon of the second day.

The town is only slightly larger than a normal settlement village, but it has all the sentry posts and defenses. Rows of deer barricades and traps are everywhere outside the wooden walls, leaving only a narrow passage for humans to drive side by side with two herbivorous dragons. The watchtower at the top of the wall is seven or eight meters high, and the arrows of the crossbow reflect a little sunlight from there, shaking the dust and narrowing his eyes.

Such a town would inevitably be garrisoned by union service hunters, and perhaps even a small chapter. Before Feng Chen could think of a way to get in smoothly, Feng had already swaggered on the official road.

"Hey! Wait, are we just going to walk in? Seeing the senior approaching the hunter guarding the pass without concealment, Feng Chen hurriedly stopped. But before the hunter could hold the companion, the senior generously showed the silver badge in his arms to the card keeper.

The hunter subconsciously shrank his body, but did not appear to be pointed at several weapons at the same time. The gatekeeper glanced the Shadowhunter up and down, and then opened the gate as usual. At the urging of his companions, Feng Chen walked into the town for some reason, and ate the mocking glances of the two girls.

"What just happened?" Accustomed to hiding in the town, Seal Dust has never entered the human settlement so smoothly in the past two years, "You showed him all the hunting cards!" ”

"That's why we got in." The Shadowhunter made a point of direction in the town and led the herbivorous dragon down a certain path, "Guild hunters are not welcome here. ”

Nestled beneath the treasure-ridden volcano of Onifuma, Burning Rock is a settlement sheltered purely by poachers. The guys with hunting weapons that can be seen in the whole town are all out-and-out shadow hunters like the current Dust, and the same are the two people guarding the level. The town has been around for decades, named after the volcano's abundant charcoal, but its main lucrative business is poaching and smuggling of ores, as well as all kinds of poaching income imaginable.

After the Volcano Ancient Dragons crusade was commissioned, most of the Devil's Fury Volcano actually came under the jurisdiction of the Scarlet Hunter Guild. Unable to tolerate such a cancer in the territory, the union had gone to great lengths to clear the poachers' colonies beneath the mountains, including the town of Burning Rock. However, when the dragon pulp incident was exposed, the volcano went around in circles and returned to Ryan Yelu's hands. The trade unions on one side were weak enough to take care of the activities of the poachers on the other side of the mountain, and the trade unions on the other side had no stakes, and there was no more major clean-up operation, so Burning Rock slowly recovered from the gap between the two countries.

Most of the people walking in the town today are fellow poachers who have only moved to the volcano in the past two years. If you don't care about the style of the warriors' badges, this place is no different from every town. The streets are lined with liquor shops, inns, shops, and even workshops, and civilians in cloth clothes rub shoulders with poachers without the slightest nervousness or disgust, as if they were not the destroyers of the hunter world order, but the ordinary members of the town.

"You've probably been around the Southern Snow Mountains for the past two years, and it's normal that you haven't heard of it." Not noticing the dusty sigh on his face, Kaede stopped in front of an inn and put the reins on the stake, and a man had already come to greet him, "After settling in, you can take a short turn around the town." The ale at the Scorpion Ao Bar is one of the best in town, but I don't know if the owner will be there after the town is rebuilt - by the way, don't spend the night outside, I don't want to go up the hill to hunt with a corpse. ”

Feng Chen smiled awkwardly, in this kind of unfamiliar town, Mo said that he was wandering outside, and he didn't dare to take a sip of wine: "What are you going to do?" ”

"There are so many supply losses that we need to replenish on the spot." The hunter said bitterly. As far as the eye can see, the cloud-filled volcano is as far as the eye can see to the east of the town, and hunting supplies here are not cheap all year round. A normal bottle of restorative may sell for five to eight times the union's price here.

"Where's the airship?" The hunter then asked.

"The landing pad is in the open space behind the town, and the departure time is tomorrow morning. It will send us halfway up the mountain, where we will wait for the rescue and recovery of the material, and the rest will be up to us. After explaining everything, the senior patted Feng Chen's shoulder, "Put away our supplies and pick an empty room to rest." ”

…………

The smell of charcoal-fired sulphur permeated the hut, whether it was because of the smell of burning stone for fire all year round, and the smell soaked the wooden planks of the house, or whether it was once used as a warehouse for large private sales. Feng Chenjie sneezed a few times before washing his face and taking a look at himself in the mirror in the room.

Now the dust has shed the immaturity of two years ago, and it has been mixed among the poachers all year round, which makes the hunter's eyes a little more shrewd and cautious, which is the proof that he has been beaten in the dark world. Dusty unfastened the buckle of the hunting suit and threw the metal breastplate and light blue leather-patterned arm guards onto the plank bed in turn. He simply took off his plain lining, revealing a well-defined upper body. Feng Chen's body is not very strong, but the compactness and explosiveness that a boy should have have jumped up, but on this standard body, there are now more than a dozen scars of different sizes mottled and scaly.

Feng Chen's body leaned in front of the mirror, revealing a round red scar below his left shoulder. He reached his arm behind his back, where there was a bulge of the same size. The hunter rubbed the scar carefully, and pain appeared on his face.

"Does it still hurt?" A deep voice rang out from the empty room.

"No, just remembering something from the past." The hunter took a deep breath and pulled himself back from his momentary distraction, "Sometimes you need to go out of your way to remember to realize that you have spent far more time outside than you have spent with everyone. ”

"Your companions are doing well." There was a ripple in the corner of the wall, and a figure slowly walked out of it.

"I didn't expect you to be able to come here so quickly." The corners of Feng Chen's mouth raised, "Uncle Nameless." ”10
