"Well, it looks like you're not either."

Len examined the wound on the back of the last member of the investigation team, making sure that this was not the one who had been cursed by the deer-headed spirit.

The big man was visibly relieved.

Although the Grand Master's words somewhat offset the horror of the curse, people are social animals after all, and it is certainly better not to live in isolation.

But Lan En was a little worried.

This is already the last person to be injured in the Molten Mountain Dragon Resistance Battle.

If the flagged person is not found in the mission, there are only two possibilities.

One is that Lu Shoujing didn't put out his mark at all.

The second is. Its mark had been placed in its territory long before the Molten Dragon Resistance.

So there is no need to transfer the mark to the people of the mission.

It's hard to do

Lan En thought wryly.

If you want to continue your in-depth investigation, you have to find the territory that Lu Shoujing has demarcated for himself.

But at present, the only Grand Master who knows the road is now in the repair period.

He is indeed a powerful hunter, but in this wild and wild new land, he also has to return to the Star Stronghold from time to time to repair.

to ensure that their physical state, mental state, and equipment state are restored.

This time, he returned to the investigation team for the first time after nearly a year and a half.

Don't look at him now, he looks like a fierce man of the third stage of Super Saiyan, but in fact, his body and mind have accumulated a lot of exhaustion.

To say the least, you have to get plenty of rest for a week.

And although it doesn't look obvious, the Grand Master is an old friend of the commander-in-chief, and Little Jack's grandfather is actually in his seventies.

He's not a dragon, he's not a reformed enhancer like Lanen, he's just a strong human. At this age, it is estimated that his strength has deteriorated.

Asking an old man to lead the way and explore when he is so tired that his body is about to have problems is something that Lan En can't do.

It's only a little over a week, so I should be able to afford to wait.

So, Lan En followed the Grand Master and a group of vanguard troops who needed to return to the stars to do business, and returned to the star stronghold first.

Others continued to work on unearthing the vast treasure left behind by the molten dragon to replenish the team's stockpiles.

By the time he returned to the Star Base on the Pterodactyl, the once bustling and busy Base was now empty.

Because of their return, it was a little more lively.

"Haha, this picture in the stronghold is really fresh."

Grand Master jumped down from the pterodactyl and marched into the stronghold in high spirits.

"We have been busy here since the first days of the base, and we have not had time to spare since then. I was thinking of taking a few days off so that everyone could have a collective holiday. I didn't expect to catch up with the ancient dragon crossing of the molten mountain dragon. ”

"I think," Ryan pouted as he followed.

"Even if you give them a holiday, they probably do the same thing as usual, right? Go to the wild to observe the ecology, catch small animals and so on. ”

Grand Master scratched the thick blonde hair on his head, then laughed heroically.

"That's right! Isn't that what a hunter is? Hahaha! ”

After laughing, Grand Master waved to Lan and the people behind him, and left first.

He needs to be efficient and deeply cultivated in order to start his next adventure deep into the New World as soon as possible.

And Grand Master also has his own hunter's hut in the Star Stronghold, and as a seasoned hunter, he will arrange his own cultivation projects.

The small troops who came back early also re-operated the entire star stronghold with low power according to their own departments.

And began to deal with the backlog of problems in the base during the time when no one was away.

For example, damage to buildings, abnormal growth of nurseries, pests and diseases in the base, etc.

And Lan En is more direct, he also has his own things to do.

"Let's dissect that [Flame Claw]!"

Non-stop, Lan En came to the territory of the Ecological Research Institute!

And with excitement on his face, he suggested to the old man of the dragon race.

Because the main purpose of this Molten Mountain Dragon Resistance Battle is 'combat', and the proportion of 'research' is very small, the scholars of the Institute of Ecology only sent a few young and strong people to follow, just in case of emergency.

Most of them are still in the Stellar Stronghold.

And the old man who was sitting on the pile of books, wearing reading glasses, and reading books was shaky.

After stiffly looking up at Lann, the witcher was sure that his eyes were getting brighter and brighter after seeing the reading glasses.

The old man of Douding jumped up with a 'swoop'!

"Oh roar! The little ones, hunters who can stably suppress the fiery claws have appeared! Now we can start researching! ”

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a large number of dragons and humans dressed in scholar's clothes rushed out, holding books and going straight to the place where the creatures were captured.

The speed was so fast that the book they were holding in their arms flew out a few pages and slapped Lan En's face.

The witcher had to pout and grab the pages off his face.

How could they bear to do this to this face?

When I fight with others, they don't hit me in the face!

The scholars' actions actually gave Lan a glimmer of self-doubt.

But soon, the sound of the brute-jawed dragon being woken up from anesthesia came from a distance.

The witcher didn't care about his self-doubt, and hurriedly ran over there.

Thankfully, there were no surprises when Lan arrived.

There may be more monsters than hunters who have passed through the hands of these scholars, and they are very good at throwing tranquilizer balls.

Everyone worked together to pull the brute-jawed dragon with obviously asymmetrical legs out of the cage and use the traction device supporting the stronghold to pull it out.

Many scholars have been eager to coat their quill pens with ink and open blank notebooks.

"I've heard before that you want to get involved in the research of Blazing Claw?"

The director of the institute stood on a pile of wooden boxes with footsteps, barely shoulder-level with Lan's shoulders, and confirmed at him.

"I do have a lot of interest in the monsters' body systems, especially the way they mutate and behave."

Lane was blunt about it.

"Well, there are many examples of hunters and part-time scholars, and many of the hunters of the Dragon Calendar Academy in the Old World have published papers, which is not a problem. As long as you make sure that you can also take care of your responsibilities as a hunter and ensure that research is carried out safely. ”

"It's not that difficult."

Lan En slapped the greatsword behind his back and let out a low bell ringing and smiled calmly.

"If it's halfway up, I'll let it lie down again. Guaranteed to be fast and stable. ”
