Chapter 517: New Discoveries in Materials
"Is the Little Hunting Group so famous?" Feng Chen touched his nose and responded slightly embarrassedly to the kindness of the onlookers as he ascended the gangway.
It was getting dark, and torches were lit on the deck. In the young man's sight, the fellows who were actively performing hunter's etiquette on the deck under the firelight, most of them were far higher than the little hunter himself, regardless of age or rank. Some young people with one or two stars have even put down their reserves, formed a trumpet shape with their hands, and excitedly shouted "little heroes".
"The little hero doesn't know yet?" In front of Feng Chen and Qin Shuiyu, the two-star hunter who led the way looked even more radiant. was able to meet the two teenagers who returned by chance while patrolling, not only did he have a reward for the commission of this trip, but he also had more to talk about in the future than the fox friends in the bar, "Among the hunters on this ship, there are few guys who don't know the deeds of the little hunting group." ”
"Why didn't we get treated like this when we were still in Locklac?" The boy was huddled onto the deck, muttering.
"You and I don't have the words 'Little Hunting Group' written on our faces, Locklac is the size of the union president walking on the street, and it may not be recognized by everyone." The little head of the group said as a matter of course, "It's different here, the hunters who can stand on these sand boats are all elites in the hunter world, even if they haven't participated in the hunting festival of the previous year, they know at least a thing or two about the situation at that time, so it's not surprising that they know us." ”
With the dust-sealed dragon cavity, the difficulty for the two teenagers to return to Locklac was indeed not as great as expected. The little hunter changed his mount three times along the way, and as he ran non-stop to the east, he tried his best to communicate with the monsters and correct the direction of travel. It wasn't until they were only a dozen kilometers away from the city that the two released the slightly tired wild herbivorous dragon. After all, riding wild monsters through the city is too shocking, and most of the monsters are reluctant to approach human settlements, so the rest of the distance can only be walked forward.
The closer you get to the city, the higher the probability of encountering your fellow hunters, and the one-star hunters really encountered a patrolling hunter team about ten kilometers outside of Shacheng. When they finally determined their position, the two teenagers realized that the tornado of the Fengshan Dragon had blown them nearly 200 kilometers south of the Xishu camp, and the two of them rode the monster through nearly 100 kilometers in one day before returning to Locklac.
There are dangers in the sea of sand, and even the heavily armed hunter team does not dare to guarantee a speed of more than fifty kilometers, Qin Shui and Feng Chen inadvertently created a record of traveling in the sea of thunderous sand.
"Miss Qin is right." The young man who led the way nodded, "I was also a participant in the challenge festival last year, but my ability was limited, I was injured during the defensive battle, and I have been recuperating on the airship for the last two days, and I was not able to participate in the core commission, and I was barely listed in the twelfth place at the time of settlement. ”
Although the two-star hunter said it humbly, the pride in his eyes could not be concealed. The core commission released by Master Guo at the end of the festival is worth a huge amount, and he missed such a good opportunity to compete for points, but he can still be ranked in the forefront, and the strength of the young man is of course undoubted. As long as the luck is a little better, it must not be difficult for the young man to get a piece of dragon man equipment next time.
"After getting off the airship on the way home, I heard what was happening in the small hunting group." At that time, of course, the Little Hunting Group had not yet been established, but the Valley Training Camp participated in the name of the sand dunes, which was not a glorious thing in the end. The two-star hunter said this, also to take care of the emotions of the two teenagers, "You really met the ancient dragon species in the swamp?" What does the dragon look like? ”
"Uh...... It's about the same as a normal Wyvern monster. Feng Chen replied perfunctorily. As early as when he was in Golden Feather City, Anfinis had reminded him that the information about the ancient dragon species in the hands of the young man might be listed as the top secret of the union. Especially related to the ecology of the ancient dragon species and the dragon cavity, it is best not to reveal too much before a special scribe comes to collect evidence, "that is, it is a little bigger, and it is a little stronger." He added in his heart, "Every day except for sleeping, I only train for fun." ”
"To tell you the truth, I also doubted you when the Golden Feather City Branch announced your commission report." The two-star hunter lowered his head shyly, "If you change places, don't say that with the help of the power of the ancient dragon species to save the hunting ground, I am afraid it will be very difficult for me to survive, and now it seems that I am still a hero and a teenager." ”
"I'm just lucky." The young man shook his head, his mind flashed all kinds of fragments of the defensive battle of the camp, and his heart choked up, and he was reluctant to continue this topic, "Just like this time, the regiment commander and I just escaped back, and I really don't have the qualifications to let everyone greet you like this......"
In order to attract the attention of the patrol team and let them send themselves to the city as quickly as possible, the teenager showed the identity of the small hunting group as soon as he came into contact. Just looking at the eyes around him, Feng Chen had already begun to regret his actions. The eyes of the hunters around them were like looking at a once-in-a-century rare beast, and they were covered in feathers like golden sleeping birds, and they were about to pounce on them and pull them down one by one in the next moment.
It is true that the hunter world reveres the strong, but the little hunter is not used to bearing so many gazes.
"Little friend's words are wrong." After hearty laughter, a rough voice sounded from the bridge, "The guy who can survive from the hands of the ancient dragon breed, whether it is good luck or the blessing of the hunter ancestors, is a well-deserved hero in the hunter world." ”
"This is the captain of this transport, the Ronga," the lead hunter whispered beside the two teenagers.
Glancing at the five-star hunter's medal on the other party's chest, the two children performed a hunter's etiquette together: "I've seen my seniors." ”
"No matter what the occasion, no matter what the original commission is, no matter the hunter rank or any other condition." The dragonman's voice was sonorous and powerful, "As long as you encounter the ancient dragon species in the process of hunting, then all the entrusted goals must be automatically transformed into the same - that is, to live." ”
"No single hunter team or individual can stand up to the might of the ancient dragon race alone. More often than not, they are faced with the dilemma that they can't fight and can't escape. ”
"What can I do then?" The cat was intimidated by the might of the dragonman, and involuntarily whispered.
"Whether it's trickery, kneeling and begging for mercy, or even doing something that gives up the glory of a hunter, as long as he survives, the hunter must seize every opportunity...... Only by surviving can the valuable sighting information be passed on to his companions, and only then can the hunters have more chances to live. The dragonman's nostrils spewed out a turbid breath, "In front of the ancient dragon species, compared to his own life, the Hunter Glory is not even a fart." ”
Although the voice of the dragon man captain was not loud, it was so thick that the people around him could hear it clearly. In front of the guys who regard the glory of the hunter as the highest code of conduct, this rough talk comparing glory to "fart" caused the hunters to whisper for a while.
"That's not what my brother meant, what he wanted to say was......" Rum pressed his shoulder from behind, motioning for him to stop. In the face of the ancient dragon species, our ability to survive is more urgent than the moral issue, and it is a priority - everyone disperse, the little brother has just returned from the desert, and I am afraid that he is tired. ”
Coming back to his senses from Fang Cai Longa's words, Feng Chen cast his eyes on the equally tall dragonman behind the captain. From behind Rum, a familiar black coat flashed out, and Anfinis sat on Luo Pingyang's shoulder, his eyes shining with a strange green glow.
"Instructor Anfei!" Feng Chen was pleasantly surprised, "Why are you here?" ”
Old Ai Lu jumped off the student's shoulders and stepped in front of Feng Chen in a few steps: "The matter of Golden Feather City is over, and I took Miaoling to the Sand Sea to find you." ”
"Sister Miao Ling is here too?" Qin Shuiyu's eyes showed joy.
"She's resting in the cabin," Anfinis muttered, looking behind them, "why is it just the two of you, and the others?" ”
"Instructor ......" Feng Chen's throat choked, "We and the others were separated in the sea of sand, and the two of us came back with information......"
"What...... Information? ”
"We met the Fengshan Dragon." Feng Chen's eyes darkened, but he still struggled to say the second half of the sentence, "Fengshan Dragon is far away from Locklac...... Very close. ”
The next moment, the boy's feet went limp, and he fell straight on Amphynis's body.
…………
"We want this!"
The union hall was crowded at noon, and from time to time hunters dragging boxes and sacks full of monster materials poured through the crowd, causing another wave of complaints in the already chaotic hall. Qin Shuiyu finally squeezed in front of the kanban, just hurriedly glanced at the commission above, and stood on tiptoe. The girl's height was not enough to reach the power of attorney at the top of the board, so she could only raise her hand and point, "Strange Bird Qingsu Entrustment." ”
"Okay, wait a minute." The kanban lady smiled sweetly and was about to tear off the power of attorney.
"I'm sorry, but we're asking for this entrustment." The girl's hand had just reached the board, but a strong hand snatched the power of attorney first, "Raptor hunting group, it is the most suitable task to take on such a task." ”
"Hey! That's what we saw first! The cat stood up straight on Qin Shuiyu's shoulder, waved his fist and demonstrated, "You should also pay attention to the first come, first come, first come!" ”
The sturdy hunter was not ashamed of cutting in line, he slapped the power of attorney in front of the stage, in the noisy hall, and the sound quickly drowned out: "What, little girl, the power of attorney is on the board, you can take it, but I can't?" ”
Qin Shuiyu glared at the hunter who had been killed out of nowhere, and lowered his head to put his gaze on the power of attorney. After thinking about the investment and income for a while, she gritted her teeth: "Forget it, this commission will be given to you, I hope you don't feed the bird's belly - we want that." ”
"We're going to have that too." The stout hunter hadn't even read the contents of the board, and snatched the power of attorney from the girl's fingers.
"Hey! That commission is in the north of the city, this one is in the south of the city, you go down together, do you want to pay a penalty to play? ”
"There are twelve people in the Raptor hunting group, and it is enough to complete two commissions." The man didn't care, and proudly raised the paper in his hand, "Forget these two together, how much does the contract money cost?" ”
"Thirty silver coins." Kanban Niang said crisply.
"Then we want this commission." Qin Shuiyu's face was already full of anger, "You won't even grab this, will you?" ”
"Wait!" The man stopped the Kanban Niang's hand writing the slip, "Add this commission to me." ”
"You're deliberately bullying people!" The little leader's face turned red, "The hunter has the right to accept the commission freely, Miss Kanban, he is clearly deliberately blocking me!" ”
"I didn't mean that." The man shrugged, "This entire board is commissioned by a third party, and the regulations of the trade union are clearly written, if there is a plural hunting group to take it, the credibility of the hunting group must be used as a reference condition." The Raptor Hunting Group is a two-star hunting group, and it is barely higher than your small hunting group in terms of trust reputation, so of course it has priority power. ”
"You're ......!"
What the man said was the truth, and most of the billboards on this board were commissioned for the maintenance of shelterbelts issued by the Blue Gold Chamber of Commerce. As the largest commercial organization in Golden Feather City, the Blue Gold Chamber of Commerce will of course spare no effort for the stability of the shelterbelt, and it is much more generous than other organizations and even the Hunter Guild. The newly established small hunting group urgently needs a sum of money to fill its strength, and the little head of the small group will squeeze under this kanban to compete for the commission.
"Little girl...... The hunter was right. Kanban Niang flipped through the rosters of the two hunting groups, and said apologetically, "If you don't want to compete, you can go to the Kanban on the opposite side of the hall, the direct commission of the hunter union is not high, and the remuneration is also considerable." ”
"Wait!" The girl's eyes lit up, and she looked at the complacent man, "Do you know our little hunting group? ”
"Heh, is there anyone in Golden Feather City who doesn't know about the Little Hunting Group?" He seemed to have heard some joke, "Why, you little scum who only rob others of the fruits of hunting, have finally tasted the taste of being robbed of the entrusted reward!" ”
"You did it on purpose!"
"Of course I did it on purpose, as long as you don't leave for a moment, the Raptor Hunting Group can take over all the commissions of this Kanban, even if you pay some fines, you have to let the Little Hunter Group have no commissions to do - no hunter in Golden Feather City wants to see you on the hunting ground!"
"You ......"

"You ......"
