As the wind and sand from the front became more and more violent, the young crew had to change the way of sailing, constantly pulling the sails, borrowing the wind from the side, and moving in a roundabout way.

Maridan pulled on her scarf and goggles, her eyes always fixed on the front.

Despite not making any substantial discoveries, her instincts told her that there was something, not far ahead.

"Big sister! It's too windy! If you can't keep going, the sand boat will capsize! The young crew yelled.

In the whistling sound of the wind and sand, if you don't speak like this, even if you are only a few meters apart, others will not be able to hear you.

"Hold on for a few more minutes! It should be not far ahead! Maridan replied equally loudly.

Her voice was much louder than that of the young crew, and the source of the title "Black Dragon" was not just skin color.

The young crew had no choice but to continue to work hard to control the sails and rudder oars, which were a little disobedient.

"Whew-"

The two of them who walked through the wind and sand only felt that the wind whistle in their ears changed suddenly.

The wind around it did not weaken, but it seemed to become stable, and the sand and dust swirled, forming several huge tornadoes, moving slowly between the sea of sand.

The young crew carefully steered the sand boat, away from the dust tornadoes.

It's a spectacular thing to look at from afar, but if you dare to get closer, you'll be instantly swept into the air by the wind, and you'll be killed.

Maridan looked at the tornado in the distance, and then looked up at the bright moon in the sky.

"I've never seen anything like it."

"Who's to say it isn't." The young crew muttered, "It's the first time I've seen so many tornadoes at the same time. ”

"Rumble"

Just when the young man was about to change his hand to operate the sail and relieve the fatigue of his muscles, the sea of sand suddenly rolled and boiled like a real ocean in a storm.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Maridan quickly steadied herself and stared her eyes fixedly ahead.

A pair of behemoth fangs, so large that they transcend the concept of "creatures", burst out of the sand.

"It's the ?!! of Fengshan" The young crew member blurted out a shout that was barely half shouted when he choked back into his throat.

The moonlit earth.

An island of purple crystals emerges from a sea of sand, dyeing the original white moonlight into an incredible purple.

The young crew opened their mouths wide and froze there.

Maridan, who had also lost her mind for a moment, quickly came to her senses with her will, tempered for many years and her steel-like nerves, and she turned around and roared loudly, "Turn around!" ”

The young man remained stunned and unresponsive, as if he had fallen into a dream composed of purple moonlight.

Maridan rushed forward and slapped the young man's turbaned skull, causing the latter to stagger.

This is still the result of her deliberate retraction, otherwise with the strength of her hands wielding a sledgehammer for many years, I am afraid that she will be able to break the young man's neck.

The young crew members who had regained their senses faced the amethyst "island" that was about to collide with them, and immediately pulled the sails and rudder oars with all their strength without much warning from Maridan.

The sand boat made an emergency turn at an angle that was almost in danger of capsizing.

The two passed by.

"What's that?!" The young man shouted as if venting.

"Shut up!"

Maridan whispered, "It probably hasn't noticed us yet, get out as fast as it can!" ”

The young crew obediently closed their mouths and concentrated on maneuvering the sand boat to speed up.

After all, he had faced Fengshan Dragon several times, and after getting through the initial panic, he naturally knew what to do.

After a U-turn, the wind is favorable.

The sails were puffed up by the strong wind coming from behind, and the sand boat was swiftly away.

After flying for several kilometers, Maridan, who had been keeping an eye on the rear, breathed a sigh of relief, "That guy didn't catch up, it seems that he didn't notice us." ”

"What the hell is that?!"

The young crew's voice trembled and chattered, "It's definitely not the Fengshan Dragon, well, although the body shape is very similar, it is bigger than the Fengshan Dragon I met before!"

And what's going on with those amethysts, I've never seen minerals like that, not in the desert, not on the merchant's side, is that guy carrying a crystal vein? ”

"Whatever it is, it's not good news."

Maridan grimaced.

"Day and night, we must get the news back to Locklac as quickly as possible!"

Throw Pandan at the meeting house and let Aisha take care of it.

Gordon and the others didn't stay in the assembly hall for long, but went to the dockyard to stand by.

The other members of the regiment are the same, they have been eating and living in the big dock for the past few days, just so that they can be dispatched as soon as the danger comes.

In terms of food, the president arranged for someone to deliver food, and if he slept, he could only spread out and make do with the floor.

Although I miss the soft and warm bed in the King's Hunter's Cabin, this is a special time, so let's talk about it later.

Hunters, when they sleep in the mud, they get used to it.

Three days and two nights passed in the blink of an eye.

The mood of the crowd in the sand boat group began to become impetuous.

On the one hand, the danger seems to be imminent, and on the other hand, there is no shadow of the danger in sight.

Maybe you're scaring yourself, maybe Fengshan Dragon won't come this year?

"Hey! North! Someone from the north is coming! ”

Everyone looked up, and on top of the mast of Mineyama Maru, a crew member waved a telescope and shouted.

He slid down the mast and repeated the words as he ran to the captain, "It's our sand boat!" It's coming from the north, and it's fast! ”

"Cessna, go call the president!" The captain of the ship said immediately.

"Okay!"

The twin knives sent Cessna away in a puff of smoke.

Others quickly cleared the debris at the dock entrance to make it easier for the returning sand boat to land.

A few minutes later, the sand boat came to the entrance to the dock.

It barely slowed down, almost as if it had flown into the dock.

Maridan jumped straight from the sand boat, her red eyes looking like she was ready to pull out a sledgehammer at any moment.

"Where's the president?" Maridan asked in a gruff voice.

The captain strode up to her, "I've called for someone to shout, Maridan, what have you found?" ”

The two men of similar age seem to know each other.

"We encountered, but not the Fengshan Dragon, it's hard for me to describe what it was, the shape is similar to the Fengshan Dragon, but the size is larger, and there are purple crystalline minerals on the back, probably a subspecies of the Fengshan Dragon or something." Maridan's language is succinct and clearly describes the "things" she sees.

The young helmsman, who had almost lost his strength, also walked over with the support of his fellow sailors.

"We drove due north for two days and one night, with a few breaks during the period, and it was about a day and one night.

We encountered a sandstorm during the night, and after rushing into the dust for some distance, we saw it, it was very large, its teeth were probably more than twenty meters long, and its back was like an amethyst island.

Then we rushed back overnight. The young helmsman was quick and clear-witted, and seemed to have organized his language many times on the road.

"What happened? What happened?! ”

At this moment, the guildmaster of Lockrac came riding a mushroom pig.

Maridan took a deep breath and began to repeat what she had said.

"The opponent is not Fengshan Dragon!"

Ps. A book friend who has never played MH3 asked me what the Fengshan Dragon looks like emmmmmm, and now the picture can't be transmitted, in short, it's a fat crocodile with two tusks? The kind that is more than 100 meters long?
