"Ah~ The vegetation growth of the ancient tree forest has accelerated dramatically, and so many roads that could be used before are now all wasted! It's a crash! ”

The head of the material squad covered his head in distress.

This is where she and her team are most affected by this ecological change.

No one comforted this Latino woman, because everyone knew that no one who could make it to the New World would be defeated by that.

Sure enough, after just a while of complaining, the material squad leader shook his head, making his troubles seem to be thrown out, and regained his capable and comfortable posture.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of the transfer. Hunters should concentrate on dealing with ecological changes. ”

The Commander-in-Chief nodded at her in approval.

"All in all, we still have to find the source of ecological change, and if you have any ideas, please say them all."

The commander-in-chief propped up the table and looked around.

The director of the Institute of Ecology stroked his beard and muttered.

"Thinking about it this way, because of the arrival of the molten mountain dragon, the conjecture that the ecology has changed is a little wrong."

"Our five-phase investigation team, basically every one of them is chasing the 'ancient dragons' who traveled from the Old World to the New World, right? But this hasn't happened a few times before. ”

[Ancient Dragon Crossing] is the mysterious habit of the ancient dragons to travel from the Old World to the New World periodically.

It was in order to discover the secrets of this habit that the New World Survey was established.

It can be said that finding out the cause and deep secrets of [Gulongdu] is the biggest goal of the New World Investigation Team.

"Maybe it's a problem with the ancient dragon species?" The material squad leader analyzed. "When we came over in the fourth group, we met the legendary [Phantom Beast] - Qilin. The appearance of that ancient dragon walking on the sea, and I still think it is beautiful. ”

"But it's just a super-small ancient dragon, about the size of a poisonous demon bird. It's a bit overwhelming to cause this kind of mutation, right? ”

"Is there a difference in body size and energy reserves?" The director of the institute accepted the conjecture, "It is indeed possible. After all, the Molten Dragon is the largest monster in the known world. ”

"Even the Snake King Dragon, which once appeared in the Thousand Swords Mountain in the Old World, only broke through four hundred meters in length. The size of the elongated body is far from that of an active volcano. ”

And at this moment, another young dragon scholar present, who was in charge of managing the director of the Plant Research Institute, looked a little hesitant.

"That."

After thinking for a while, he raised his hand and inserted himself into the discussion.

"Maybe I have information on my side that can match this ecological change."

So everyone fell silent and looked at the scholar of the dragon race.

"Since I arrived in the New World, I've basically focused all my research efforts on one project, which is the reproduction of ancient trees, which are probably the largest trees in the world on this continent."

His first words seemed to have nothing to do with the ecological change, but no one in the room interrupted him.

Because people who can come to the New World, even hunters who are full-time combatants, have a basic understanding of the biological chain.

The ecological environment is interlinked and mutually influential. Organisms that seem unrelated from a human perspective may have deep connections in ecosystems.

People who understand these principles are often not too eager to make a conclusion on certain things.

"The essence of the ancient tree forest is that it is an incomparably large 'tree' that can grow at least hundreds of thousands of plants on it. In my previous efforts, I have cultivated the seedlings of this tree. It's just that there are not many plant species that can grow from this sapling, and the growth rate is also very slow. But."

"But?"

The commander-in-chief questioned.

"But after the Molten Mountain Dragon landed, it was as if the little sapling had finally gotten the nutrients it needed, as if I hadn't had enough to cultivate it before."

Speaking of which, the director of the Institute of Plant Life Research is a little depressed, but also a little excited about the progress of research.

"Anyway, it's starting to be revitalized in a big way! I don't know exactly how the Molten Dragon Landing phenomenon affected it, but there's no doubt about it, guys! ”

"The relationship between the formation of the ecological status quo of the New World and [Gulongdu] is definitely far deeper than all our previous speculations!"

"In my research on ancient trees, I have determined that this large forest and this tree have periodically experienced 'explosive rapid growth', and it can even be said that seventy percent of the scale of the ancient tree forest today is accumulated in those explosive growths."

As the information of the director of the Plant Research Institute came out, an indescribable excitement appeared among everyone.

In order to discover the ecological phenomenon of [Gulongdu], these people who went to the New World and even struggled and lived in the New World for decades were excited about this discovery.

Even if the rapid growth of the ancient tree forest is actually a challenge to their survival, rather than a help.

Lan En could feel that it was precisely because of the pure and determined ambition of this group that he felt excited at this time.

Because they care more about the ecological knowledge they have discovered than about the difficulties.

"So, if two dragon jades can appear in the body of a big fierce jackal dragon, should it be the reason for the explosive prosperity of the ancient tree?"

Winder muttered to himself, and his eyes, which had been suffering from superstitious luck and fortune, began to glow inexplicably.

Lan En looked at it and scratched his head, this guy wouldn't treat this period as a BUFF validity period of 'doubling the lottery shipment rate' now, right?

And the commander-in-chief, who was standing in front of everyone, also touched his white short beard and said.

"It seems that we were born at a good time, and we are in a rare biological cycle, since this is the order!"

The commander-in-chief was slightly excited at first, but then he gave an order, and everyone present couldn't help but wait for it.

"This is an unprecedented period of discovery, and we need to devote all the energy we can to the tracking of the molten dragon. Since its impact on the ecology of the New World is so far-reaching, it would be a shame if we lost it! ”

"All missions are going on as usual at the moment, but during the mission, collecting clues about the molten mountain dragon is the highest priority."

"Not only the old guys of the previous groups, but also the recommendation group." The commander-in-chief turned to face three people and one cat.

"You have proven yourself to be reliable and adapted to the environment of the New World. That being the case, access to missions in all areas of the Mission is open to you. ”

"But the condition is that the amount of tasks you give is worthy of this trust, newcomers!"

The Star Stronghold has laid a material transfer route on this continent, and there are not many areas that can provide basic support for hunting. After all, it's a whole continent.

In addition to the ancient tree forest, it is the wasteland of the Great Ant Mound.

Combined, these two areas would have an area of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers.

In the New World, which has never been explored by humans, it is already a blessing for hunters to be able to lay the basic material support for hunting to this point.

Aibo almost jumped up with excitement.

I don't know if it's because of the trust and recognition from my predecessors, or because I can explore the broader ecology of the New World.

"Woohoo! Leave it to us! ”
