The mission to contact the Beasts was completed smoothly.

Not only did they establish communication and gain the friendship of the Beast Clan, but Gordon also received some "Rescue Wolf Smoke" as a gift.

I don't know what these black lumps are made of, and they smell bad.

After sniffing it carefully, the pork chop said that in addition to the rosin of cedar and sulfur, there seems to be ice jackal feces.

Gordon felt the urge to throw it away, but eventually put it away.

To put it bluntly, this thing is a "signal flare" for the beasts, and as long as you light it, a conspicuous pillar of smoke will rise.

When the nearby beast clesters see it, they will immediately rush over to help.

Although, the monsters that can make Gordon and them feel tricky, even if they call the beast entanglers are likely to be useless.

But after all, this symbolizes the "friendship of the beastly clan", and they all like these cute and powerful little guys, so they are naturally reluctant to throw them.

In addition to the frowning "rescue wolf smoke", pork chops also have some new harvests.

The Beasts taught it how to call out to ice jackals, befriend them, and even ride them.

The pork chop hasn't really been tested yet, and I'm ready to try it in the snow forest when I have time, which should be similar to the method of the insect cage clan in the ancient tree forest to manipulate the thief dragon?

If you succeed, you will be able to move around in the snow in the future.

However, is there really an ice jackal that can carry Gordon?

Unlike the three Gordons, who returned to the Yuechen stronghold full of energy and red faces, Hayatta and his party, who came back a day late, all had pale faces.

It's tired, and it's even more frozen.

The first thing they did when they returned to the Yuechen stronghold was to go to Grandma Cat's for a real hot meal, and then go into the hot spring pool for a good dip.

Finally pulled out the cold that seeped into the bone marrow.

The two groups of people met in the hot spring tavern that had just been capped and had not even had time to install the doors and windows, and exchanged their experiences.

Gordon also made a point of showing them a photo of themselves with the Beast Entanglement Clan, as well as the roasted ice fish dragon meat that was bigger than the table.

At this moment, even the good-natured Hayatta couldn't help it, and rolled Gordon's eyes several times in a row.

In any case, the three key tasks sorted out by the Institute of Ecology have been successfully completed, and it should be able to relax for a few days before new tasks come down.

Although the Master of the Fields is old, he is an idle man, and so is Aibo.

The two of them plunged headlong into the pile of information at the Institute of Ecology, trying to find some clues about the "special stones".

Hayatta plans to make a trip back to the Star Stronghold.

The treasure jade of the Wind Drifting Dragon has been sent to the processing house as soon as possible, along with other materials, and with the leader of the second phase of the group with excellent craftsmanship, the highest quality ice-resistant talisman can be created soon.

When she gets the talisman, she will take the last airboat back to the stars, and then she will be able to pick up her precious daughter.

After studying the hunters' reports in depth, the scholars of the Yuechen Ecological Research Institute named the two special individual monsters encountered by Hayatta and others as "Frostwing Wind Drifter" and "Frostblade Ice Tooth Dragon" respectively.

Frost Wings are about to turn into talismans, so let's not mention them for now.

However, for the Frost Blade Ice Tooth Dragon, which possessed the super-sized frost energy, the scholars led by the leader of the third phase showed great interest.

The Old World also has a distribution of Icetooth Dragons, but there has never been a similar individual.

What are the reasons for this, it is worth exploring.

As a result, they issued an investigation mission and recruited high-ranking hunters to conduct a further investigation.

The person who took the task was Jean, who was born in the snowy mountains of Flasia and had many experience in hunting ice tooth dragons, so he was the most suitable person for the scholars.

When Feng Ying heard about this, she shook her head and said that it was over.

The head of the third phase of the regiment, I am afraid that they can only analyze the reason for the mutation of the old guy from the materials.

Two days later, Hayatta finally got her hands on the ice-resistant talisman she had been thinking about for a long time.

It also happened that on this day, the airship between the two strongholds arrived at Yuechen, but this time, along with the airship, there was also a message from the stars.

Bad news.

Previously, the headquarters of the Yuechen stronghold was an open space, with only one table.

When the wind blows, map files fly all over the sky.

Now I finally set up a huge tent, although it still looks shabby, but at least it is not open, and there is a stove for heating.

Gordon thinks it's good, don't build any buildings, so be it.

"Everyone is here, I won't talk nonsense, the star stronghold sent a summoning order, and there was an abnormal monster commotion over there, and even a variety of undiscovered subspecies monsters appeared.

Xingchen is currently understaffed and needs to mobilize some hunters to help. Gordon got straight to the point.

"What about the investigative operation against permafrost?" The head of the third phase raised his hand and asked.

"No full manpower will be deployed, and investigations that are not a high priority will be suspended."

The head of the third phase of the regiment bowed his head slightly, "Understood." ”

"How many people do I need to go back? I need to adjust the arrangement of all aspects of my work. The material squad leader also hurriedly raised questions.

"What the commander-in-chief means is to do as much as possible without affecting the basic operation of the Yuechen stronghold."

The material squad leader scratched the dirty braids on his head hard, grabbed another piece of paper, wrote and drew and calculated, and then spoke:

"There are currently seven high-ranking hunters in the Yuechen stronghold, and twenty-five elite hunters with three to five stars.

If you suspend the exploration of high-risk areas, most of the upper hunters can be transferred back, first of all, Gordon, you have to stay, anyway, you are also the person in charge of the moon! ”

"Okay, I'll stay."

"In addition to you sitting in Yuechen, you also need at least one high-ranking hunter as a mobile force that can be dispatched, and other high-level hunters can be temporarily transferred back to Xingchen."

Gordon thought for a moment, "Jean set off yesterday to go hunting in the Frozen Canyon. It's too troublesome to investigate the task of the Frostblade Ice Tooth Dragon, and send someone to call him back, so he and I will stay behind in Yuechen. ”

"Of course, if you want the rest of the elite hunters, at least half of them should be left, the collection of food, furs, all kinds of building materials, and the escort of the transportation team are the bare minimum."

"Well, then leave three squads behind, and the rest of the people will return to the Star Stronghold with the five high-ranking hunters." Gordon nodded and decided.

It's not a business deal, so there's no need to bargain.

"Of course, there are also the compilers, and most of the compilers can return to Xingchen to help while Yuechen has suspended various investigative actions." Gordon added.

"I'll arrange the list." Alva nodded with a puzzled expression.

Should I go back to the stars? Or stay in the moon? It's freer to stay here, but there's nothing to do if the investigation is stopped, and there are many subspecies of monsters on the New World?

Really! I'd better go back!

"By the way, there's one more thing." Gordon looked at the material squad leader again, "During this period of time, the construction of the Yuechen stronghold can also be suspended, and the work center can be transferred to food acquisition and storage. ”

"Huh? Why? ”

Gordon shook the letter in his hand, "There has been an abnormal cooling in the New World, and the Star Stronghold has also been affected.

With the monster commotion and the Plant Growth Institute's crop failures, the food reserves in the Stellar Stronghold are declining at an undisturbing rate. ”

The head of the material squad and the person in charge of the supply station were a little panicked after hearing this, and the two ran around the table.

took the letter and glanced at it, and the leader of the material squad suddenly burst into a scream, "The food reserve of the Star Stronghold has dropped to sixty percent?!" Are you kidding! It's only been a long time!

No way! I'll have to go back and see! Yuechen's side also has to find a way to support some of the supplies.

Tomorrow, everybody will hunt Bobo for me! ”
