Training, digging bone mounds in the wild, and accompanying Mi Duoduo and Bubu to participate in the two-star hunting cat assessment.

After the ruthless team spent three days comfortably, Li Ming came to the workshop and received his Huang Sulong gauntlet, as well as a paralysis bag jetting device that could be disassembled and mounted at any time.

Li Ming, who returned to the cabin, decided to give it a try.

If you want to load a shield with a knife in your left arm, your right arm is the best choice.

Loading the [Poison Gland Paralysis Toxin Secretion] into the third atomization hole that opened with the abdomen, Li Ming instructed: "Mi Duoduo, if there is any abnormality, directly use all your strength to shoot me fly, and then quickly take off Huang Sulong's gauntlet." ”

"Okay meow!"

Midodo nodded.

The [Poison Gland Paralysis Toxin Secretion] was already in place, the gauntlet with the ability of the Yellow Speed Dragon King was also put on, and the paralysis bag jetting device was loaded.

The next step is to use yourself to connect these things.

Li Ming pinched the catheter that extended after the paralysis bag injection device, loaded a metal needle, then took a deep breath and pierced the skin of his shoulder horizontally.

Blood quickly fills the catheter and rushes to the paralysis bag ejector.

Knock knock~

Li Ming noticed that his heart suddenly beat twice.

The outlines of objects in the field of view begin to distort and dissolve.

In the distorted vision, the sky gradually turns purple and the ground turns pink.

Just when Li Ming felt that his vision was completely out of tune and wanted to terminate the experiment, a lame Huang Sulong suddenly appeared.

Li Ming hurriedly leaned back to dodge, but found that the other party just turned his head sideways, rubbed his head, and then jumped and ran away.

It was suddenly pitch black, and when it was lit up again, the vision suddenly changed to a sandy field.

The mutilated body of the lame Huang Sulong, half-hidden at the bottom of the bunker.

呲~呲~

Li Ming felt that there was liquid flowing in his mouth, but whether it was spitting or swallowing, he couldn't detect the presence of the liquid at all.

At this time, the muddy pit and the giant axe suddenly appeared in front of me...

"Ahem! Gross~..."

After coughing heavily, Li Ming vomited a ball of saliva.

"Li Ming! You're okay meow! ”

Mi Duoduo stroked his back twice with his cat's paws, and hurriedly ran to get the water bladder.

"I'm fine... I just felt like I had a very strange dream. ”

After Li Ming finished speaking, he raised his hand and rubbed his face.

Seeing the paralysis bag ejector loaded on his right arm, Mi Duoduo was suddenly stunned.

"Drum up meow."

"What's bulging?"

Li Ming didn't know why.

"Ejector meow."

Midodo is indicated by a cat's paw.

Li Ming put his hand down and saw that the blood injection had stopped, and the slightly bulging paralysis bag was making a hissing and burning sound.

Shaking his arm, he could clearly feel the liquid flowing through it.

[Poison gland paralysis toxin secretion] has really been realized, but it seems to be a bit blood-consuming.

Why don't you connect to that part and try a different injection medium?

Forget it, if I return one day, I'll collapse completely.

After denying the thoughts in his heart, Li Ming launched the test.

The slightly larger monsters around the stronghold were basically hunted.

Li Ming could only put some pressure on the insects crawling in the corner of the wall to test the toxicity of the paralyzing venom.

Two days later, under the continuous excavation of the bone mound, the materials for upgrading the shield axe bone armor to type 2 were finally gathered.

Since it was only a modification and upgrade of the original weapon, the workshop said that it could be completed in two days.

At noon, the team members gathered in the guild hall to discuss their next move.

"I want to build a green bear!"

Chu Ying plucked up the courage to finish speaking, and unfolded a weapon atlas.

"Looks good."

Li Ming commented.

"Do you agree?"

Chu Ying said with a little surprise.

"Of course, I also had plans for future operations, but I didn't know much about other areas, so I put them on hold."

Li Ming expressed his opinion.

"It turns out that you are also in a state of confusion, and I was afraid that there would be a conflict of opinion."

Chu Ying said happily.

"Are you leaving the sandbar?"

Midodo asked tentatively in a whisper.

"That's right, but it's still in the preparatory stage, so let's find a suitable contract first, and we need to deepen our understanding of the area we want to visit."

The Bone Shield Axe was being upgraded and processed, and it was impossible to travel to collect it, so Li Ming felt that he could use this time to collect intelligence information.

"Miss Shireen, is there such a world map that has demarcation for each region?"

At the counter, Li Ming asked.

"Yes, 20z one, because of the difference in the arrival time of the branch in various places, it cannot be guaranteed to be the latest version."

Shireen reminded.

After Li Ming counted out the coins for payment, he took a very thick folding picture.

After the round table in the hall was unfolded, the countless red circles all over the continental plate gave Li Ming a stunned look.

Marking from the side of the map and finding the meaning of the red circle, Li Ming took a deep breath.

"Good guy, this super high-risk area is a little too much."

The activity range of ordinary ceratosaurus-level monsters is not included in the high-risk calibration of the world map.

Li Ming thought that there would be fewer such high-risk areas, but he didn't expect that the real situation would be even more unfavorable than that of the sand plain.

"And overlapping areas, oh meow."

Bubu pointed to the Crashing Dragon and the Tyrannosaurus, two red circles covering a large area, and reminded.

"There will always be some gaps..."

Li Ming held an optimistic attitude and continued to observe carefully.

"In the case of the Blue Bear Beast, there are probably activities in the streams and in the abandoned shrine area... Well, isn't the calibration of the Abyss Dragon on the other side of Elgard? Why does even the abandoned shrine area have an impact? ”

Li Ming asked puzzled.

"This pink area is demarcated and is the maximum range of rodent transmission."

Chu Ying explained.

"I see, this black-purple area with a large overlap with it is the spread of the dragon virus... Wait, why do these two have such a high degree of overlap? ”

For the world in front of him, which is both familiar and unfamiliar, Li Ming feels awkward no matter how he looks at it.

"You don't know (meow)?"

Chu Ying and Bubu looked surprised at the same time, as if this was something that everyone should know.

"Maybe I've heard it before, but I've probably forgotten..."

Seeing this, Li Ming pretended to have amnesia.

"Let me explain, monsters that can survive for a long time infected with rodents will reach a state called weirdness, and if they are infected with dragon disease for a long time, monsters will enter a state called limit, and the guild once tried hard to cut off their spread, but unfortunately they all ended in failure, and they can only let the two disaster areas continue to expand and spread, until... Their propagation areas are intertwined. ”

Chu Ying said, fingering the deepest intersection of the pink circle and the black and purple circle.

"At the beginning, everyone thought that the ecology would completely collapse because of this, but after the encounter with the monster of weirdness and maximization, a highly targeted battle to the death was immediately launched, as if it was an old enemy, and the spread range was suppressed."

"You mean... Instead, it creates a delicate balance? ”

Li Ming speculated.

"That's probably what it means."

Chu Ying replied.

Li Ming propped up the table with both hands and looked at the world map in a daze.

He didn't expect that when the ecology had collapsed to the extreme, there would be a new equilibrium.

"Well, since the abandoned shrine area is not good, then the stream area... Jieyun Underground Cavern Division? ”

Seeing the name of the stronghold in the gap between the red circles, Li Ming was slightly stunned.

"As the name suggests, it's an underground stronghold."

Chu Ying informed.

Li Ming searched for a moment and found the area where the current sand plain was located.

I found that except for the area where the Yanwang Dragon was about to cross the boundary of the map, there was an ultra-high-risk area demarcated, and there was no ultra-high-risk red circle here.

I thought my birth point was in Demon King City, but it was actually in the novice village.

Li Ming suddenly felt that in addition to the poor ecological environment, the sand plain was actually not bad.

After reading the world map, the team went to the counter and asked Shireen about the contract.

"If you want to get the contract to defeat the Blue Bear Beast here, then you can only go to the treasury of the backlog of circulation contracts."

Shireen informed.

"What is a Circulation Contract?"

Li Ming asked curiously.

"It's a contract that no one picked up during the public release time, and after it was withdrawn, it had to be circulated between various branches to try to recruit hunter teams from other regions to complete."

Shireen explained.

Li Ming quickly understood.

There are also unpopular contracts, and there is really no team to pick them up, so they can only be transferred to other branches to continue posting.

If the content of the commission is not very important, and no one really cares about it, then it can only be backlogged.

"Is it because the conditions for achieving it are more demanding?"

Chu Ying asked.

"It's not, it's not much different from ordinary contracts on the whole, most of them are just bad luck, and some of them are because the client's hunting purpose is too bizarre for the hunter team to recognize... I'll look for the team carefully in the evening, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow at the latest. ”

"Thank you, Miss Shireen."

The general goal has been established, and the team is ready to do so.

The next day, Shireen had good news.

The hunting contract that the team wanted was found, and it was still three.

However, two of them were going to the abandoned shrine area, and the Hunter Squad didn't have enough stars, so they were eliminated by Shireen, leaving only one in the stream area.

In front of the counter, Li Ming shook off the dust on the contract and spread his hands.

【Blue Bear Beast with a strong appetite】 ★★

Location: Near Stream Falls

Contract Target: A Blue Bear with a scar on its left arm

Client: A strong honey picker

Mission Description: All the hives have been destroyed! All! I've tried to fight with guys, but I'm no match at all, so I can only ask for the help of hunters.

Gratuity: 2950Z + 880Z (subsidy)

Time Limit: (Cancelled)

Note: This contract is a backlog contract, more than three months have passed since the release date, all details about this contract, please go to the local branch in the implementation area to confirm.

If the contract is no longer possible, the guild will pay the Hunter round-trip fee, as well as a subsidy for the time limit of the Hunter's star rating.

"This honey picker dares to fight against the blue bear beast, he is strong enough..."

Li Ming said in surprise.

"Miss Shireen, wouldn't the execution of such a contract jeopardize the ecological balance of the local area?"

Chu Ying asked curiously.

"No, each species has a clear number of indicators, once the stationed field investigators find that the number of a certain monster in the local area exceeds the standard, threatening the ecological balance, they will pass the information to the guild, and then the hunting approval of such monsters will become extremely relaxed, and all kinds of strange commissions will appear... Uh, don't say I revealed it. ”

Shireen helplessly held her forehead, as if she regretted that she had told too much information.

"That is, use the client's money to help the guild eradicate the monsters that exceed the standard, and then take a share of the materials..."

Li Ming suddenly felt that this Hunter Guild was really good at making money.

"Actually, it's okay, when the stronghold villages and towns are attacked and hunter squads are organized to conduct joint hunting, the Hunters' Guild has to face huge expenses every day... How did you think about it, and if I confirmed the pick-up, I pressed the seal. ”

Shireen said as she stretched her hands.

Li Ming and Chu Ying glanced at each other and confirmed together, "We'll take it." ”

Bang ~ Seal pressed.

Go back to the cabin and tell me about going to the stream.

Wood's Blue Bear is more worried about the dangers he will encounter along the way.

So they assisted Li Ming to start making a long-distance route.

However, since the world map is not sure if it is the latest version, even the experienced man and cat are always worried.

It's as if everywhere you go, you'll be attacked by monsters.

Li Ming is still relatively optimistic, after all, there are so many goods coming and going in the stronghold every day, if he is destined to be attacked if he travels far away, the transportation route should have been blocked a long time ago.

Early the next morning, Li Ming came to the workshop early to receive the completed bone armor type 2.

The shield surface is thickened with hard bone and fixed with a few more rivets.

The blade of the Accumulator is slightly flatter than before, and it seems to be sharper.

Other than that, Li Ming couldn't see any other differences.

When I returned to the hut, I saw Wood and Da Tangerine, who were watching around the corner, and Li Ming and Mi Duoduo also came up.

"What kind of mushroom is this?"

Wood asked curiously, looking at the mushrooms growing in the corner.

"It's kind of like a paralyzing mushroom meow..."

Tachibana responded.

"I don't think it's a paralytic mushroom, it's just that there is a lack of ingredients for breakfast soup, so add it and try it."

Wood said, reaching out to pluck.

"Don't Wood-senpai!"

Li Ming hurriedly reminded.

"Do you know what kind of mushroom this is?"

Wood asked curiously.

"Yes, this is the paralytic mushroom, but it seems to have mutated."

Li Ming informed.

This is not nonsense, he has been here for a long time to paralyze the venom and insects, testing the toxicity.

The growth of mushrooms and the residue of venom, Li Ming felt that there might be a connection.

"It's a pity, so let's add some blue mushrooms to the breakfast soup."

After Wood finished speaking, he went to work with Big Orange for breakfast.

Li Ming found a flower pot.

He tried to pinch the mushroom with Huang Sulong's gauntlet, and found that he felt any adverse reaction, so he transplanted the mushroom into the pot.

"Mi Duoduo, this mushroom will be handed over to you to take care of, just water it on time every day, and you must not touch it easily."

Li Ming informed.

"Got it, uh... Do you go to the toilet here often? ”

Midodo asked curiously.

"I... No. ”

Li Ming was a little speechless.

"Okay meow, I'll take care of it."

Midodo said as he picked up the flower pot.

The whistling sound of wind and sand resounded from the scarred dome of the sandstone cave stronghold.

"I'm a little reluctant to leave suddenly..."

Li Ming, who looked up, sighed.
