Chapter 426: Suspicious Area

Gordon called his companions over.

"You're still going to take a risk, aren't you?" Anhill stared at Gordon.

"Hmm."

Gordon didn't deny it, took the map, and repeated what the professor had just told him, "We are now in the eastern part of the main peak, and this is a good opportunity.

So I'm going to scout this area tonight.

It's unclear what exactly provoked Arashiyu, but I don't think it's some kind of monster, and if it's not too bad, it should be rewarding. ”

Anhill pinched the corners of her eyes and thought for a moment, then sighed.

"This judgment is reasonable, if it is some kind of monster that provokes Lanlong, they should be at least creatures of the same level, and it will definitely break out into battle until one of them dies or leaves, so it can basically be ruled out.

Moreover, if the professor's judgment that Lan Long was reluctant to approach the area east of the main peak was true, then it should indeed be safer to search in this area.

Personal wishes aside, I am in favor of conducting reconnaissance, the only question is, why at night. ”

"So far, the sightings of Lanlong have basically been recorded during the day."

"Although it cannot be directly asserted that Lanlong will not operate at night, at least in terms of probability, night reconnaissance is positive. ”

"And because of Lan Long's anger, there shouldn't be any too dangerous monster activities in the current Lingfeng Mountain Range, and reconnaissance at night will not be more dangerous than during the day." Gordon added.

"For that reason, I don't have a problem." Anhill nodded.

Gordon looked at Hayata.

"I don't have a problem either."

Hayatta thought for a moment and called Alva, who was roasting pine cones, over, "Mr. Alva, you have been active in this area for the past few days, can you help us map the general terrain?" ”

Alva pushed his glasses, "I try, but the terrain in the Lingfeng Mountain Range is too complicated, and there are all that kind of columnar stone cliffs everywhere, I can't draw every stone cliff, but it should be okay." ”

"That's enough."

"Wait a minute."

Alva pulled out a pen and paper from his book bag, Gordon didn't expect this guy to carry these things with him in this situation.

"This is the main peak, and Lanlong is perched on the peak, don't go near this direction."

Alva first drew a series of mountains with stick figures, and then on the other side of the paper, he drew a small triangle.

"Our current position is this little triangle, well, I'll call it a camp, five or six kilometers west of the camp, you will enter the foothills of the main peak, don't go there.

To the southeast, through a dense stone forest, you will enter a relatively flat woodland, where I met the blue bear beast when I was picking fruit.

To the southwest, there is a secondary peak, and after crossing that peak, it is not far away, which is where the airship fell.

Further north, well, it's a long stone forest, and there's a big river, where the professor and I have seen a herd of dogs, four or five, and it shouldn't be a threat to you.

That's pretty much it. ”

The pork chop that was watching Alva's drawing together stretched out his little paw and patted Alva on the shoulder.

"The topographical map you drew is much clearer than Gordon's."

"Ahh Thank you. ”

Gordon pinched the ear of the pork chop and made a straight face to hide his embarrassment, "In short, after we set off from the camp, there are three directions to be able to reconnoitre.

The stone forest and woodland in the southeast, the sub-peak in the southwest, the stone forest and the river in the north, my suggestion is to give up the southeast direction for the time being, and focus more on the southwest sub-peak and the northern stone forest. ”

"Huh? Why? Alva couldn't help but ask.

The professor glanced at his brainless apprentice, "Because you're coming from this direction, and you've been running in this direction the most these days."

Since you haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary, it's only natural that you'll be given a lower priority in this direction. ”

"Oooh."

After training Alva, the professor looked at the hunters again, "You have worked hard to scout at night, you can take Alva's cloak for camouflage, and wear it at night, even if the dragon flies over your heads, you may not find it."

I'll take the rest of the canvas and give it to Gordon to make a bigger one, as for Mr. Heavy Crossbowman, it shouldn't be necessary, the Swift Dragon armor is the best concealed nocturnal equipment. ”

"That's it, take the time to rest, and set off after it gets completely dark, and go on reconnaissance.

If all goes well, we'll be able to return tomorrow! ”

The sun sets, and night covers the Lingfeng Mountains.

Gordon and his party left the makeshift camp and set off quietly.

I don't know if it's because Lan Long has the ability to manipulate wind and rain, but when the storm is not set off, the sky in the Lingfeng Mountain Range is incredibly clear.

As far as the eye could see, there was not a single cloud.

On the horizon of the last quarter moon, countless stars form a sea of starlight.

The silver-blue glow shrouded the earth, and even Gordon, who had footprints all over the continent and was accustomed to seeing the beautiful scenery of various places, couldn't help but feel distracted for a moment.

"Whew."

Gordon exhaled lightly.

If it weren't for the threat of Lan Long, he really wanted to pause and enjoy the starry sky in front of him.

Glancing left and right to confirm the direction, Gordon made two gestures.

To the north.

The three of them and the two cats set off silently but quickly.

They plan to go to the stone forest and the large river basin in the north of the camp to reconnoiter first, as for why not go to the sub-peak in the southwest first.

For no particular reason, Gordon picked it at random.

Pork Chop and Pandan leaned forward some distance as usual to reconnoiter in advance.

They want to avoid accidents like dogs and dragons as much as possible.

It's not that I'm worried about safety, but I don't want the smell of blood to lure Lan Long over after a battle.

Although there is no evidence that Lan Long has a keen sense of smell, out of caution, it should be considered that Lan Long's sight, smell, and hearing are beyond the ordinary.

It's always a good idea to be cautious.

With the map provided by Alva, Gordon and his party soon arrived at the target stone forest.

But they didn't know exactly what they were looking for, so they had to spread out a little and look for things that could be called "anomalous" as much as possible.

The search lasted for hours, and the hunters would stay with them.

They found a hidden rock hollow to hide for a while, and exchanged their findings.

"I didn't find anything unusual here."

"Neither do I."

"Didn't find a meow."

Gordon covered his face, "It seems that there is no gain, there is no point in continuing to turn here, turn to the south, the secondary peak that Alva said." ”

Anhill's expression became more serious, "What if the south still hasn't found out?" ”

Gordon was silent, "Then turn to the woodlands to the southeast, I'm going to search at least this suspicious area to the east of the main peak."

Even if there are no commendable discoveries, at least a more detailed map can be put together to help hunters reconnoiter the area in the future.

As for the final result, there is no need to be too strong, if we don't find out, let's prepare to leave Lingfeng. ”

"Hmm."

A smile appeared on the corner of Anhill's mouth, "Let's make a brief record of the terrain around here first, and we may forget it later." ”
