Chapter 371: The Golden "King"
Finally, it was confirmed that there were no survivors left, and the injured were placed in the Marutori car.
The hunters quickly left.
No one questioned Gordon's decision, and the most taboo thing in the hunting ground was argument and hesitation.
Only Anhill, who was in the same car with Gordon, whispered, "Did you find anything to leave in such a hurry?" ”
Gordon nodded his chin faintly and whispered to him: "It's been almost two days, the smell of blood is so strong, the corpses are a little stinky, and there are still no scavengers like dog dragons coming."
It must have been a thunderwolf dragon that left urine and marked that piece into the territory, and I'm worried that they will come back. ”
Anhill glanced at the two injured people in the car, "I understand. ”
With the strength of their two teams, it would not be a problem to deal with two or three thunderwolf dragons at the same time, and if the tactical arrangement was reasonable, it would be possible for four to be strong.
According to Gordon's previous temperament, the number of thunderwolf dragons has not yet been discovered, and it will not retreat so easily.
Specially stayed, waiting for the thunder wolf dragon to come back, and the two sides had a big battle, which is this guy's style.
But when they found the seriously wounded, they had to keep everything going on.
On the way back to Jieyun Village, the hunters were all on alert, for fear that a few thunder wolf dragons would emerge from the deep forests on both sides of the forest road.
Fortunately, that terrible situation did not happen, and the group returned to Jieyun Village without any danger.
The village chief, who had been standing anxiously at the entrance of the village, hurriedly greeted her, "How is it, are there any survivors?" ”
"Two people were found, one was seriously injured, and the other little girl was mentally stimulated." Gordon briefly explained the situation.
The village chief's wife immediately arranged for the villagers and doctors to carry away the middle-aged man who was seriously injured and in shock.
When everyone got out of the car one after another, the little girl who was hugged by Feng Ying and teased her all the way without any reaction, suddenly moved.
She grabbed the short tail of the pork chop.
"Meow!"
The pork chop that was jumping down from Marutori's back lost its balance and slapped its face on the ground.
The pork chop shook its head and got up, tugging at its tail, but it didn't move, and was about to pull harder when Gordon opened his mouth to stop it.
"Let her hold on to it, for her your tail may be the only light in her life."
"Meow?"
Pork Chop didn't know what the charm of his tail was, but he had to let her hold it first.
Xianglan ran over and shook her tail in front of the girl, but unfortunately the latter did not react, which made Xianglan very aggrieved.
It's even cuter.
Gordon withdrew his gaze from them, "Madam Village Chief, we do have some discoveries, and we need to talk to you and Mr. Administrator.
It is best to call the scholars of the scrivener team as well, the problem of the thunder wolf dragon may be more serious than we think. ”
The village chief nodded, found a suitable room for conversation, and called for someone to call the scholars who had left behind in Jieyun Village, the management of the guild and the scrivener team.
The members of the two hunting groups and even the pork chops were involved, and in the previous search and rescue process, everyone more or less found something.
The little girl never let go of the tail of the pork chop, so Feng Ying hugged them together on her lap.
"This attack was not predation, or encroachment on territory or other subsistence behavior, I think it was revenge killing." Gordon went straight to what he thought was the most important finding.
"Why?"
The scholar of the Scrivener asked solemnly, "It is common for wounded monsters to attack and retaliate against creatures that invade their territory, but this time is obviously different.
The multi-headed thunderwolf dragon appeared without warning, they must have invaded from a more distant place, right?
Organized, purposeful, and long-distance attacks on villages, this is the first of its kind to be found in monsters, why do you think it's a retaliatory attack? ”
"After inspecting the scene and the corpse, I found that after the thunderwolf dragon bit and killed the villagers, there was no trace of eating or taking away the corpses, so predation can basically be ruled out.
If it is to encroach on territory, it is not reasonable to kill all the villagers, after all, in the eyes of monsters, humans are similar to the orc race, and belong to the category of 'no threat'.
In addition, we have been hunting frequently recently, clearing the Thunderwolf Dragon near Jieyun Village, and the attack on the village just after the cleanup was completed, this time point is a bit just right. ”
What Gordon said was only an inference, not logically rigorous.
The scholars of the Scrivener Corps subconsciously wanted to refute the logical loopholes, but suddenly came to their senses and realized that they were not engaged in a rigorous academic discussion, and such a refutation was meaningless.
He rubbed the corners of his eyes and said, "Whether it is an act of revenge, I have reservations, but one thing is for sure, the Thunderwolf Dragon's social nature and IQ are higher than we think."
This kind of cluster attack that leaves the original territory has only been seen in two types of highly social creatures, one is humans and the other is ants.
If the purpose of predation is excluded, there are only human beings, acts of war."
"Aren't the wolves the same, attacking the sheepfold or something?" Ted asked, confused.
Anhill on the side helplessly explained, "Wolves have territory, and unless there is a lack of food to the extent that there is no way, they will not leave the territory en masse to hunt."
And the wolves attack the sheepfold for predation, and it's just a matter of biting a few more heads, didn't Gordon just say it, this time it's not predation. ”
Ted touched his scarred bald head and rethought it.
Anhill wanted to say that you better give up thinking, but she didn't expect this guy to suddenly come up with a very interesting concept.
"Uncle Ben doesn't know much about that, but after listening to what you said, I suddenly felt that those guys were very similar to humans.
You've been emphasizing 'leaving the territory' just now, is it possible that they don't seem to them to have left the territory at all? ”
The scholar of the Scholar Team frowned, "You mean to say that the Thunderwolf Dragon Clan, like the wolf pack, has demarcated a super-large territory shared by all races?"
However, various sources of information confirm that their colonization is far less than that of wolves, which is determined by the amount of food and diet.
The range of the individual is also very fixed, which is also a proof that the Thunderwolf Dragon has an independent territory. ”
"That's right, that's why Uncle Ben said that they are like human beings, just like a kingdom, with kings and lords, and the lords of various places usually do their own things and don't visit the door.
But one day the king found out that several lords of a certain area had been killed together, so he was angry and took the other lords to kill him."
The scholars of the scrivener team were stunned when they heard this.
This kind of concept similar to "separation" has never appeared in the monster ecology, but it may be surprisingly reasonable when placed on a species like Thunderwolf Dragon, which has both "high sociality" and "strong individual strength"?
"The lord who came first was cyan, and the king who came later was golden!" The little girl who was about to blow the tail of the pork chop bald suddenly burst out of her mouth.
Everyone looked at each other.
Feng Ying hurriedly asked softly, and the little girl stopped talking.
The girl's words were like babbling, but everyone couldn't let go.
Since the Thunderwolf Dragon Race is highly social, it is only natural that there is a leader of the group, or the king.
It's like the colorful Swift Dragon King Dog Dragon King.
If you think about it this way, how strong should the leader of the Thunderwolf Dragon Clan be if he can suppress it?!
"The reconnaissance must be reorganized, and it can only be done by us, hunters below four stars meet the 'Thunder Wolf Dragon King', I'm afraid they won't even have a chance to escape." Anhill said immediately.
"Uncle Ben takes the lead in the charge!" Ted crumpled his fists, making a crackling sound.
"Nope."
Gordon hugged his chest and frowned, "The strength of the target is unknown, there is a high probability that there are other thunder wolf dragons accompanying him, considering the difficulty of retreating, the scout must be strong enough, and the speed must not be too slow." ”
Ted's eyes widened, "You think Uncle Ben is weak?" ”
Gordon glared back unceremoniously, "I think you're short-legged!" ”
Ted: "."
Hayatta felt that she was still suitable, and was about to speak, when the door of the house was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
The silver-haired, long-haired double swordman walked in.
"Perhaps, I should recommend myself."
