Chapter 267: A Harbinger of War

In all fairness, the little Orion didn't cause much trouble for the team. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Both of his shots were range-of-range obstruction props. When the flash jade took effect, the other party had not yet noticed that there was an ambush around them, and the smoke bomb caused the beasts to fall directly into chaos. I didn't react until I retreated. This is also thanks to Feng Chen's cleverness, otherwise, if he throws a blast bomb in his hands, then today's situation will really be difficult to end. The boy was able to take these into account when he made a move, which can be regarded as a manifestation of his impulsiveness and retaining some rationality.

In the final result, Feng Chen did make the captain and teammates sweat, but did not cause substantial damage. The golden retriever beast that was released returned to the hunting ground, at least it had to take care of its injuries, so that it could cause trouble to the hunters in the hunting ground, and at that time, perhaps the entire hunter team had already returned to Golden Feather City.

"I'll just say it, Captain Su is actually very talkative." Cheng Jing frowned beside Feng Chen, and said, "However, you are indeed a little impulsive this time, dust boy." ”

The little hunter fell into a deep self-blame, and the captain's punishment of him was even more unpleasant than the severe punishment, and he was a hunter no matter how he said it, and it was his duty to obey orders and protect his companions. And just as soon as he was close to sealing the dust, he was about to put his teammates in danger.

But on the other hand, Feng Chen's heart was faintly happy, and he recalled the moment when the golden retriever escaped, and he himself was as relaxed and happy as if he had broken free from the despair of death. The young hunter couldn't tell whether what he was doing was good or evil, but the only thing he knew was that he had done something that he felt was right and reassuring.

"How so?" Jia Xiao asked Feng Chen with meaningful eyes, "We all thought that you had been told that you were reasonable, and you wouldn't make any more indiscriminate moves." ”

"I don't know......," the little Orion looked puzzled, "I didn't want to interfere in the battle between monsters, but at that time, in that scene...... I just can't restrain myself. ”

"Is it because of 'that'?" Nie Xiaoyang leaned into the young man's ear and said mysteriously.

Feng Chen was dumbfounded, and the boy had stopped using that mysterious ability as much as possible, but if he asked if he was not affected by it at all, he didn't have much confidence in his heart. At this time, Feng Chen didn't dare to guarantee whether his actions just now were from his own heart or because he had received the monster's thoughts excessively.

"It seems that your ability is not that simple." Lu Xiu said worriedly, "If I can, I'll tell Uncle Mo about your situation after the game, he can tame the dragon bloodline in my body, and he should be able to find out the problem in you." ”

Big Bear secretly glanced at Lu Xiu with unkind eyes, he wanted to say, "Give it to Morin, that old thing may turn the dust into a combat weapon of the Hunter Guild", but when he thought that this mysterious dragon man was indeed thinking about the little hunter, he didn't say a word of sarcasm.

"Instructor Anfei is trying to figure out a way for me, and probably after the game, I can start learning how to control my conversational skills." Feng Chen spread out his hand and said, "The thought of something inexplicable hidden in my body makes me feel a little creepy. ”

"Anyway, as long as it's not you." Jia Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Feng Chen wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end, he cleaned up his mood and changed the topic: "Anyway, the golden retriever did make a gesture of gratitude before leaving, right?" Is the sanity of a primate monster so strong? ”

"Monsters are very smart." This question did not evade the four official hunters leading the way, and the older boy immediately replied in a thick dialect when he heard this, "Wild beasts are in the hunting grounds, and they have to gather food every day to avoid natural predators; Social animals also have to deal with the relationship with their peers, competing for the right of first choice of food and the right to mate, and under the survival of the fittest, each species of monsters has accumulated a lot of survival experience. In many ways, we humans are vastly inferior to them in intelligence. ”

The big boy spoke slowly, but excitedly, probably because his specialty was related to monster ecology.

"So, the Golden Retriever can also understand 'gratitude', right?" The boys are intrigued by the secrets of the monsters.

"I can't say it's not possible." The older boy cautiously replied that his knowledge could not yet fully answer this question concerning the nature of monsters, "but the intelligence of primate monsters is at most the level of a three-year-old child, and it is not yet possible to completely control instinct with reason." In other words, even if you save the lone species this time, it will be grateful to you, but the next time you meet a hungry one, it may still be swallowed in one bite. ”

"That'...... What if the monster had enough intelligence? Feng Chen asked, "The world is so big, there are always a few smart monsters, right?" ”

As soon as the words came out, the teammates were silent, and after a while, the tomboy said slowly: "Of course, there are monsters whose intelligence is no different from that of humans, and even those whose intelligence far exceeds that of humans, we have also observed them." ”

Of course, what the boy is talking about is the ancient dragon species, those powerful monsters that may have existed since the origin of the world, and how can they accumulate a spirit intelligence unimaginable to humans with just a long lifespan, and how can a small hunter guess.

"I know what you're trying to ask." Captain Su suddenly spoke, "At the beginning of the path of the hunter, I also wondered what the difference between a monster and a human was. ”

"We have a dragon lance that is tens of meters long and can kill a giant monster in one blow, how can a monster compare."

"The monster also has flames that can blow up hundreds of square meters with one blow." Captain Su said disdainfully, "If the hunter touches it, he will also be deflated." What makes us stronger than monsters is not what we have, but what we can do. Man is a social animal, and in such a treacherous world, where we can form states and trade unions, and we can create technology and civilization, this thriving society, although we may not be the most powerful species, will infinitely amplify human creativity. ”

"The New World has only been developed for hundreds of years, but we have already gained a place in this soil, and the ecology of the monsters is the same as it was hundreds of years ago."

"That's why, for hunters, the most important thing is not the hunting skills, nor the weapons and equipment, but the hunter glory above the head." The captain pointed to the sky, "Because it is the bond of hunter civilization, which can connect all hunters." Humans and monsters are distinguished not by intelligence, but by the ability to develop society and create civilization. At this point, even the ancient dragon species is far inferior to us. ”

"As for the peach fur beasts, they don't know what society is and what civilization is." "This monster existed for a long time before the establishment of the Scarlet Kingdom, and it still only drinks blood, roams the wilderness, and throws feces all over the ground. ”

The two-star hunter's legs stopped abruptly, and she looked around, still surrounded by a monotonous and bleak mire, with the occasional patch of grass and starry trees, and she slowly straightened up, thinking.

"Captain?" Seeing that the eldest sister was stunned, Cheng Jing called her carefully.

"This is not right, we have been walking around the territory of the peach fur beast for most of the day, but except for the few small ones, we have not found the feces of a single monster."

"Monster...... Sperm? Thinking of the captain's words just now, Nie Xiaoyang's face turned a little green.

"The dung of the peach fur beast is their important weapon, and the monster will only actively collect it when it senses danger." The big boy's face turned grim.

"Is there any danger in this swamp?" Xiong Fuji was puzzled.

"We are the danger." Captain Su pointed to his nose, "Hurry back to the camp, we're going to face the war." (To be continued.) )
