In addition to the huge ghostly crater at the summit, there are dozens of lava deposits in the volcano's mountains, which are like branches around the mountainside, which also makes the road up the mountain extremely rugged. Lena managed to climb a slanting pinnacle, and the huntress pulled down her clairvoyance and looked around, only to see that her eyes were covered with volcanic ash mist, and all she could see was an inch of land illuminated by lava.

"No, visibility is too low." The Shadow Hunter bit her lip and leaned against the flat stone wall and slid all the way down, standing still with a "pop", despite the heavy hunting gear and weapons on her back, her movements were not half sluggish, "Damn...... I didn't have that much dust when I came down. ”

"Small-scale volcanic eruptions, or leaks from underground lava pools." The cat sniffed the smell in the air, "The sulfur smell has been getting heavier since the beginning, and I can't go wrong." ”

"It must have something to do with the lightning at that time," Xiong Fuji crossed his arms, although there was not a single monster in his eyes, the two-star hunter with an unusual battle instinct could still feel that the atmosphere on the volcano was much more depressing than before the thunder and lightning fell, "I haven't seen the low-level ornithosaurus take off for half an hour." ”

"I can't get any signal here, so I have to keep going." Lina had already made up her mind, patted the dust on her hands, and walked in the direction of the crater without even looking at the people in the small hunting group.

"So, Captain—why the hell are we following this unknown woman?" Seeing that Qin Shuiyu waved his hand and took the lead in catching up with the Shadow Hunter's footsteps, Xiao Yang hurriedly asked in a low voice behind the captain.

"You've heard the words before, she's not 'unknown.'" The head of the female group corrected, "'Reverse Scale' is the initiator of this commission, and the investigation of it was originally a commission given to us by Lord Anfei, and we have to do our part. ”

Realizing that she had missed all of the captain's signals, Lena was depressed for a few seconds before regaining her senses. Fortunately, this obedient poacher didn't seem to have the slightest concept of information secrecy, and he said everything about Qin Shui's rumors, from the identity of the reverse scale to the confirmation of the golden lion, all of them were told to the little hunting group. It wasn't until all the remarks of the purple-clothed hunter corresponded to the previous information one by one that the little hunting group realized that what they had picked up was indeed a treasure, but this humanoid treasure was particularly hot.

The people of the Little Hunting Group had never imagined that they would face such an unprovoked poacher before they came to the rescue. The huntress has a perverse personality and is also emotionally uncertain, often smiling one second, and a few cold death threats jumping out of her mouth the next moment. However, the opponent's hunting skills are powerful, and the weapons are also quite dangerous, so the young people have to be vigilant.

"Then, when we see the head of the 'Reverse Scale', what can we do? Do you want them to revoke their commission? The tall hunter's eyebrows were twisted together. Those who have the ability to organize this kind of cleanup are all powerful hunting groups with rich resources and outstanding abilities, "This guy is going to make peace with his companions, and when the time comes, we will be surrounded by dozens of poachers, and I'm afraid we won't even be able to pass on the information." ”

"Hey, Reverse Scale has always pursued an elite strategy, so we don't need so many people in our hunting group!" Lena turned and pointed to her ear, signaling that she could hear clearly, and her eyes exposed outside the mask showed pride, "There are four of us plus Scale, but we do have our own airship." ”

"Listen...... They also have airships! Nie Xiaoyang turned his face to the head of the regiment and said silently with an exaggerated mouth.

"Also, I remember what you said about the destination." The purple-clothed hunter shook his index finger, "I went there two days ago, and there is nothing but the remnants of battle. If you want to catch up with a dragon with the few traces of two days ago, you are still too tender. Admit it, your intelligence is seriously outdated, and if you want to find the Golden Lion, you will have to follow me all the way sooner or later. ”

This is true, since both sides are chasing the same goal, even if the small hunting group is willing to spend hours or even whole days to choose a completely different path, the two teams will always meet at the end of the hunting ground.

"If you have the energy to question your leader's words, you might as well ask me why I would be willing to take a few of you imps on the road together." There was a hint of sly sly in Lena's voice.

"Why?" Nie Xiaoyang asked subconsciously.

"Ah...... That's a good question! The Shadow Hunter suddenly stopped, and on the narrow mountain road, Xiao Yang was almost unable to dodge, and he was able to stop in front of Lena. The young man was a forehead taller than the purple-clad hunter, and the huntress raised her hand and tapped lightly on the helmet of his hunting suit.

"Ding ——!" The metal helmet made a crisp sound, and Xiao Yang hurriedly took a step back: "What are you doing?" ”

"Ah......" Lena sighed with pleasure, "of course to answer your question!" You don't have the information I want, and you're so poor, you should have killed you on the mountainside. If you want to say why you brought it, it's because you're cute, I like it. It's been a long time since I've seen such a young hunter, and there's still a long way to go, so I'll be able to relieve my boredom with you on the road."

Feeling the Shadow Hunter's eyes looking at him, Xiao Yang's heart felt a chill, he wiped the place on his helmet that was touched by Lena, glared back fiercely, and involuntarily slowed down his pace: "Believe your words and hell!" Crazy Woman ......"

"If you don't believe me, you can think that I am kidnapping you up the mountain, and after I have gathered all my friends, I will find a way to kill you in one pot, chop off your hands and feet, and throw you into a lava pool or something...... Whatever you want. I think I have the confidence to escape, and I can follow on my own. Leaving these words, before Xiao Yang could continue to scold, the huntress had already turned her head with grace.

"Sure enough, the poachers are all crazy......" the tall hunter muttered hatefully behind Lena.

"I'm a craftsman by profession, and I only had to learn hunting skills to collect materials, and at most I'm half a Shadow Hunter!" The huntress retorted, but her feet were childishly walking faster and faster.

Watching the team leader Lina drift away, Jia Xiao pulled Qin Shui Yu in the middle of the team: "Leader, we can't trust this guy." ”

"Of course I do, but if she wanted to attack us, she would have done so long after the battle." The female leader also has her own considerations, "No matter what she wants, this is a way to get close to the truth of the commission." As for the danger...... Where is there no danger on this volcano? ”

"We're confident that we're safe, but ......" The Great Sword Hunter looked at Zuo Qing behind the team and didn't continue. The girl was following the archer inch by inch, hiding at the end of the line farthest from Lena since she had been walking with her, apparently instructed by the head of the regiment to Shentu Miaoling to take care of her. ”

Even more dangerous than poachers are poachers with crossbows. Even ignoring the supposedly high-performance explosives in Lena's backpack, the identity of the Shadow Hunter Crossbowman cannot be ignored. When dealing with monsters, the power of the ballista is no different from that of other standard weapons, but in the fight against people, it has an exceptionally excellent performance. I have seen the speed of the purple-clothed hunter's gun, whether it is a sneak attack or an escape, everyone is not sure that it will be completed before the opponent fires a shot. And once the gun goes off, it is almost possible to pronounce the death sentence of someone on your side, which is an unacceptable result for the whole regiment.

There is only one person in Lina, and the people who participated in this commission from top to bottom of the small hunting group have a full eight lives.

"Why is everyone looking at me like that?" Feeling the strange eyes of many seniors, the little flutist stubbornly broke free of Shentu Miaoling's arm, and said with a straight chest, "I'm not a burden!" I found out when I was still in Border Town, and everyone just wanted to leave me in town, right? ”

The team members were all silent, not only from the border town, because of the special nature of this commission, from the first moment they received the mission, the hunters had planned to leave the girl in the rear as much as possible. However, the plan was not as fast as the change, and the appearance of the black cat Mei Ke completely eliminated the agreement of the head of Qin. The time limit of the commission is uncertain, and it is obviously more reassuring to have Qing'er with a Meralu in a foreign country than to let her stay with her.

"We didn't mean that, no one said you would be a burden to the team." The female archer pulled the girl back to her side, Qing'er's mouth still pouting, "But after all, this is the first time you have faced such a complicated commission, and the head of the regiment and we just want to protect you." ”

"I've read the files of my predecessors." Xu was a little smoked by the harsh air on the volcano, Xiao Qing'er's face turned red, "I know, this is the first time you have faced such a commission...... I don't need any extra care, and I can do everything that my predecessors can do! ”

"Haha! Little guy, if you say this, you will be scolded by the head of the regiment......" Probably Qing'er's last sentence was louder, and was heard by Lina, who was far ahead. The Shadowhunter turned his head and said loudly with a smile in his eyes, "With a personality like yours, you can't survive a day in the Scales. You should be glad you have a captain who cares about you. ”

"Your regimental commander...... Do you curse a lot? After all, she was still a child, and the little girl's attention was diverted by the words of the purple-clothed hunter.

"It's more than just swearing!" Lena's mouth glanced behind the mask, "You'll know when you see him, when that guy is unhappy, he will put his big sword across someone's neck." After complaining, the Shadowhunter bent down, clapped his hands, and looked at Xiaoqing'er in the distance as if he was teasing a pet, "What's your name, little one?" ”

Motionless by a shadow hunter staring at her, the female flutist was startled. She was about to hide back in the arms of Sister Miaoling beside her, but her fists were clenched tightly, and she was bold, and she actually strode towards Lena.

"Qing'er...... Come back! Shentu Miaoling stretched out her hand and grabbed it, but was dodged. The female archer wanted to step forward again, only to feel a chill through her body, and Lena's gaze poured the killing intent into her body without reservation, and she could not move a single step again.

Xiao Zuoqing stood beside the head of the regiment, turned his head to look at Qin Shuiyu's expression, and then said to the Shadow Hunter with a straight face: "I'm not afraid of you." ”

It's not like Qin Shuiyun's conclusion of "temporary security" after considering various circumstances, unlike the two-star hunters present, the courage that comes from being accompanied by companions, and even less like the calm that Feng Manyun found after losing all the negative emotions in the battle - the little girl's face carried fearlessness without any preconditions, another kind of pure courage. Lena looked at the pair of pearl-like eyes of the one-star hunter, and was actually a little distracted, and only replied after a few seconds: "You don't need to be afraid, I'm not a bad person." She groaned, then changed her words, "I mean...... I'm a bad person, but not that bad. ”

"I fought a poacher!" How could the purple-clothed hunter have thought that the female flute's bravery only came from the fact that at the beginning of the mountain, she threw a stone over a low-level poacher in a coma. She also looked at Lena's face, the crossbowman's face obscured by the helmet and visor, leaving only a pair of eyes and sporadic outlines, "The poachers I've fought are all ugly. You're beautiful, aren't you? …… I know you're not like them. ”

Lina's eyes were almost slit, she raised her hand and touched Qing'er's head: "You are also beautiful......

"Get your hands off the way!" From the moment Zuo Qing and Lena came into contact, the whole team watched the Shadow Hunter's every move with bated breath, and when they saw that the purple-clothed hunter's cage hand was about to touch the body of the one-star hunter, the hearts of the entire team seemed to skip a beat.

The pair of stone-like eyes were actually a little distracted, and it took a few seconds before he replied: "You don't need to be afraid, I'm not a bad person." She groaned, then changed her words, "I mean...... I'm a bad person, but not that bad. ”
