Chapter 29: The Return
Liang Zhijin gently stroked the egg with a hint of warmth, and was silent.
Although the Ice Spirit Kite was seriously injured, if Liang Zhijin didn't even have the strength to escape, he didn't believe it, maybe in the end, the Ice Spirit Kite didn't even think about abandoning the egg and escaping.
It's really a great mother's love, so does that mean that the Ice Kite is just defending itself against the Thorn Bird Team that comes to hunt it? And now the Thorn Bird Team is the evil hunter who is pulling the bones and skinning the Ice Spirit Kite?
Liang Zhijin thought a little dazed, who is righteous and who is right?
Then he shook his head, no longer dwelling on this kind of question, he already had the answer, just like Shi Wei said, from a different perspective, things do not distinguish between good and evil. And he now belongs to human beings, so naturally there is no need to think from the perspective of the Ice Spirit Kite.
Liang Zhijin wrapped the ice spirit kite eggs in those fluff and put them into the backpack with his heart. It just so happened that Pikachu lacked the materials for the high-level fantasy species, and selling this egg to him felt that he would make a lot of money again.
By the time Liang Zhijin had done all this and walked back to the bottom of the mountain, Duan Yating and the others had already collected the body materials of the Ice Spirit Kite, and there was only a remnant body left of the huge Ice Spirit Kite.
Duan Yating was playing with an ice-blue crystal nucleus in her hand, about the size of a basketball, slightly transparent, like a huge diamond, beautiful and flawless, but even a diamond of the same volume was not as valuable as this crystal nucleus, and the soul crystal of the transcendent fantasy seed was a priceless treasure in this world, because it represented the ticket of a super martial artist!
"Do you still decide to let Huang Doudou choose alienation?" Liang Zhijin looked at the priceless crystal nucleus, but there was no fluctuation in his heart.
"Before, I thought that the transcendent life was just faster and stronger than the king's level. Duan Yating stared at the crystal nucleus in her hand, and said faintly: "But after the real battle with the Ice Spirit Kite, I was really scared. We don't know anything about the dangers of this nucleus, let's take this nucleus back first and then think about it in the long run, the Thorn Birds have lost their scouts, and Doudou can't have any more problems. ”
"You can go to Pikachu, his research team still has a lot of experience with alienation, and if you finally decide to use the crystal nucleus, he can increase your success rate by 5 percent. Liang Zhijin said.
"Good. Duan Yating replied softly, and then said to the team members who were doing the final finishing work: "Zhang Qing was killed, Yu Dong is still unconscious, and our team can't stay long in the outer suburbs." After we gathered the materials, we found cover around and had a good night's rest. When it gets dark tomorrow morning, we'll set off back to Base City. ”
"Yes, Captain. ”
A group of people answered.
And Zhang Qing, who died at the top of Zhurong Peak, everyone can only mourn in silence in their hearts. Warriors all the way, especially those who choose to be monster hunters, it is common for them to die unexpectedly, and when they part, everyone's hearts will be flattened, and they can only try their best to compensate the families of the fallen members.
Early the next morning, the fifth day of the operation, the Thorn Birds began to quietly leave this peculiar point that had become history and began to gradually heat up, and hurried along the way they came, towards the military outpost.
Without scout Yan Qing exploring the way in front, it would be a little uncomfortable, but Duan Yating is also a king-level combat power, coupled with Liang Zhijin's temperature sensing, there is no danger along the way, avoiding many alien beast communities, faster than when he came, and it only took a day and a half to return to the outpost of the military region.
The military outpost, Barracks No. 8, temporarily became a temporary resting place for the Thorn Birds.
Yu Dong stared at the big eyes of the copper bell, and made a strange sound of crying and laughing, what is it like to be frozen into an ice sculpture and then rescued, probably he will never want to experience it again in his life.
"I'm sorry, I was too reckless in this operation. If Yu Dong, you don't want to do it again," Duan Yating said slightly apologetically. was interrupted by Yu Dong's loud voice. "I won't choose to retire! I picked it up, hahaha, I'm not crippled, it's impossible to quit from the alien beast battlefield, I still have to take my brother's share to kill all the alien beasts in the world!"
"Let's not talk about that, let's deal with the alien beast materials we hunted this time. Duan Yating looked at Yu Dong, who was out of shape, and knew that Zhang Qing was his best friend, so she could only change the topic.
"This time we suffered heavy losses in our operation, but the corresponding gains were also extremely rich. On this trip, we have hunted a total of countless high-level soldier-level alien beasts, 4 general-level alien beasts, a beginner-level king-level alien beast head, and a transcendent fantasy species!" Duan Yating said.
"Transcendent life is too cherished, and if it is directly handed over to the people of the U Alliance, I think it may cause a lot of unnecessary trouble, so it is better to send it to the city center auction anonymously. He Ling said cautiously.
"I think so, I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves, I have a relationship with the military, and I can also hand it over to the military for purchase, the price may be low, but it's better to be safe. Yu Dong agreed.
Monster hunters actually make the fastest money by hunting 1~level less than themselves, so that efficiency and value can get a maximum cost performance, that is to say, a monster hunter team with average combat power at the beginning of the king level, it is best to hunt intermediate or high-level beasts, so that it is better to win in safety and efficiency.
If every time it is a foreign beast of the same level as yourself, then the probability of death will gradually increase with the number of times, not to mention the cross-level hunting, it is either crazy confidence in your own strength, or you are gambling on your life.
Therefore, the main goal of the Thorn Bird Team will not be as high as Liang Zhijin guessed at the beginning, and only a freak like Liang Zhijin will fight over the level every time!
Of course, this is not absolute, if the number of people in the team is large, you can also try to skip the rank, but in general, after many years of exploration, unless there are special circumstances, generally speaking, hunting alien beasts below their own 1~ level is the most reasonable choice.
And it is extremely rare for the Thorn Birds to hunt and kill across several levels, one is because the target is seriously injured, and the other is because they need revenge, but even so, the Thorn Birds have paid a heavy price.
"Then the body materials of the ice spirit kite should be returned to Yueyang City to be processed, and the other alien beast materials should be sold at the U Alliance branch of the outpost. Everyone has lunch and rests first, and then goes to sell it in the afternoon. Duan Yating finally decided.
In this process, Liang Zhijin didn't say a word, anyway, just wait for the money.
In the previous hunting general-level beasts, Liang Zhijin was basically paddling, in fact, there was no way, he was bare-handed, and before he got on, he was killed by Yan Zhen's laser sniper rifle.
Although having extraordinary power before achieving transcendence can bring great strength, it also comes at a cost when used, and if you use it too many times per unit of time, it will collapse because your body can't handle it.
Therefore, for those who have not achieved transcendence but have extraordinary powers, deterrence is more important than practical.
Therefore, Liang Zhijin inevitably paddled the water, and only when he encountered two king-level beasts later, Liang Zhijin really exerted light and heat.
