At noon, they found a sand boat carrying a large amount of local products and the bow of the boat was away from the depths of the sandplains, and after confirming the destination, the team boarded the boat.

Although this sand boat did not go directly to the stream area, it was no problem to take the team away from the outskirts of the sand plain.

"Think twice before acting, don't be reckless."

Underneath the sand boat, Wood admonished.

"Don't forget the teachings of the Cat School, Duoduo Meow!"

Ah Tang shouted to remind.

"Got it! A orange meow! ”

Midodo, who was lying on the bulwark of the railing, waved his claws in response.

"Say hello to the guild members of the Yuyun branch for me! Have a good trip to the ruthless squad! ”

Shireen waved goodbye.

With a gust of wind and sand rolling, the sails raised by the sand boat puffed up and slowly glided forward.

"I will, take care, I'll come back to see you when I have the chance."

Li Ming waved in response.

After a while, the sandstone cave stronghold built in the mountains disappeared from view.

Bang~Bang!

The sand boat, which continued to accelerate, jumped slightly, and then fell into the sand, causing a jolt.

"Li Ming, do you feel..."

Chu Ying looked curious.

"Yes, it's fast, it feels a lot faster than the sand boats I've ridden before."

Li Ming expressed his feelings.

"Maybe it's a route away from the sandbara that is more suitable for high-speed sailing."

Chu Ying speculated.

"This hunter lady misunderstood, our crew used to fly airships, so the speed was slightly faster, this is all a small scene..."

The crew with the cargo box said half of the words, boom! Boom! Two more violent jolts.

Li Ming hurriedly held the arms of the crew, so that the other party did not fall.

"It's dangerous, thank you little hunter."

"It's okay, where can I take the airship you just said?"

Li Ming asked.

"Hunter brother's first time traveling, right?"

The crew asked rhetorically.

"Yes."

"I see, it has been some years since the decline of the airship, at the peak of that year, the Dragon Calendar Academy not only researched the dragon knowledge ship, but also opened up the air channel with hunting airships, but since the failure of the Heavenly Comet Dragon Crusade, the Dragon Calendar Academy and the guild have suffered heavy losses, the safety of the air channel has completely lost its guarantee, and the entire airship industry has also declined."

The crew gave an explanation with a sad face.

"It's not like there's all of them, is it?"

Li Ming asked tentatively.

"Yes, there is, but either there is a fierce hunter escort on the ship, or the owner of the airship, who is a fierce hunter himself, is now relying on our crew alone, and it is impossible to complete any voyage safely.

The crew introduced.

"Understand, there is no safe air route, so open up one with your hands."

Li Ming said he understood.

"Haha, you know how to hunt fierce men, don't talk about it, go get busy."

The crew smiled happily.

The sand boat traveled for a day and a night, stopping at a freight terminal.

The team disembarked and walked for nearly a day according to the planned route, finally seeing an endless green plain after climbing a towering dusk peak.

After cleaning up the sand and dust accumulated in the armor and weapons, the team rushed to a nearby freight transfer station in an environment where the smell of grass was flying in the wind.

Got on a minibus towed by two herbivorous dragons.

The herbivorous dragon walks slowly, and the speed of travel is a little slow, but the ride experience is much smoother than that of a sand boat.

The most important thing is that compared to walking, the weapons and materials on the back can also be unloaded.

The only drawback, that is, this is a special car, not only charges, but also charges 150z for one person and one cat.

Two days later, arrive at the next transfer point.

At this time, the plain landscape has disappeared, surrounded by mountains and rivers.

This time, it was two Marutori with bright feathers who were in charge of the tow.

The owner said that he didn't need money, and he could take the ruthless team to the Jieyun underground cave branch for free.

However, if you encounter a monster attack along the way, I hope to help.

After all, with the transportation profit of small trucks, it is completely impossible to afford the escort costs of hunters.

In addition, the truck ride experience may not be so good, and if the team wants to go along, they can only settle for it.

"Don't worry, uncle, we are in the sand field, and the environment is much harsher than this."

Li Ming informed.

"Alright, let's go up there."

Uncle Coachman, pointing to the top of the stacked containers.

The Ruthless Squad grabbed the cable that bound the cargo box and climbed to the top.

Mi Duoduo, who was leaning against the cargo box, took out a notepad and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but sigh: "Huh~ There are a lot of creatures and environmental meows that I haven't seen along the way." ”

"It's good to get used to it, I didn't know any species before."

Li Ming informed.

"Have you been to many places before?"

Chu Ying asked.

"Sort of, but that was a long time ago, and my memory is a little blurry."

Li Ming informed.

呲陶~

The log wheel suddenly stopped.

"Is there something abnormal?"

Chu Ying picked up the iron assault crossbow erected at her side, and looked vigilantly at the surrounding trees.

Thinking that he hadn't been threatened by anything along the way, Li Ming couldn't help but feel a little nervous, so he reached out and grabbed the hilt of the energy sword.

"No, you've got a good mouth tonight."

Uncle Coachman said in a relaxed tone.

Burst~

The stiff Marutori shook his buttocks, and an oval-shaped white giant egg slipped to the ground.

"Huh?"

The vigilant Li Ming and Chu Ying were stunned when they saw this.

"When it's time for dinner, I'll treat you to boiled balls."

The coachman jumped out of the truck, patted Marutori on the back, and then calmly picked up the dome.

Early the next morning, Li Ming, who was sleeping on the cargo box, woke up with his eyes.

At this time, the top of the team lying on has been shrouded in tarpaulin.

The fresh moisture in the air, as well as the moist feeling of being wrapped in moisture, made Li Ming feel that it was probably raining last night, so the coachman's uncle covered it with people and goods.

The van is still on the move.

The more time you spend in the wilderness, the more danger you have.

Similar trucks will basically choose to travel day and night, and this driver uncle is no exception.

After dinner, I drank two bottles of refreshing drinks, saying that I must rush to the Yuyun branch before noon tomorrow.

Li Ming got up and bent down to dig out the edge of the tarpaulin.

Before he could ask where he was, his attention was drawn to the strange gray clouds in the sky.

No matter how dense the regular dark clouds are, they will only block out the sun.

However, in the center of the dark clouds here, it swallowed the highest mountain in the distance in the form of a spiral depression.

Above the strange clouds, the gray clouds that stretched outward were all twisted into curves, rolling back and forth against the clouds.

The whole scene looks as if the sky is collapsing and the world is turned upside down.

"Wake up, I guess I'll be there at noon."

Uncle Coachman said, moving his sore shoulders.

"Uncle, is that the Lanlong habitat?"

Li Ming pointed to the distance and asked.

"Yes, that's Lingfeng, the first time I saw it, I was shocked, and I was the same, I used to take this route, and I was always afraid that it would suddenly attack me, but now that it's been a long time, I don't have so many worries..."

The uncle said, and suddenly sighed with some loss: "The former Jieyun Village was destroyed by it, but it's a pity that the crusade failed, maybe... Success doesn't necessarily change anything. ”

"Why?"

Li Ming didn't understand why the uncle was so negative.

"If the dragon is gone, there will be other monsters occupying the stream, and in terms of the ability to resist natural disasters, the people living in the vicinity have gradually adapted to the common storm floods and landslides."

The driver's uncle said, looking at the leather airbags loaded around the truck.

These airbags, which can turn trucks into drifting boats, are designed to prepare for flooding.

"This..."

Li Ming didn't know what to say for a while.

In terms of survival, it is indeed much better to resist only one natural disaster for a long time than to take turns in turns.

But I still inevitably feel a little sour in my heart.

After a short time, the rest of the members woke up one after another, and they were particularly shocked by the oversized storm mass in the distance.

The drizzling rain stopped at noon, and the clouds cracked into countless golden cracks, and the sun shone down after a long time.

The number of vehicles towed by Marutori on the dirt roads gradually increased, and there were many hunters among them.

The truck crosses a wooden arch bridge.

A dam-shaped building with logs tied around it stands in front of it.

Entering through an opening under the dam, a bustling market street emerges.

"Thanks to the escorts."

Uncle Coachman waved goodbye.

"Uncle, be more careful when you return."

Li Ming said goodbye to the coachman and uncle, and under the guidance of the road signs, he crossed two more dams.

Finally, he stepped on the stone steps and continued to descend, and finally arrived at the branch of the Jieyun Underground Grotto.

As soon as they entered the guild hall, the team was shocked.

Half of the area is a normal round table dining area, and the other half is a stone hot spring pool.

"We're not in the wrong place."

Chu Ying saw the poster on the wall prohibiting poaching, and then she confirmed that she had indeed come to the guild hall.

"Welcome to the Jieyun Underground Grotto Branch!"

The female receptionist in a green uniform shook her arms violently and shouted enthusiastically.

"What do you call it?"

Li Ming asked tentatively.

"Just call me Mete."

"Hello Miss Metti, I have a circulation contract here, which was issued here, and I would like you to see if there is any possibility that the task will continue to be executed."

Li Ming said, unfolding the contract and handing it out.

"No problem... Bear Beast, wait a minute, I'll go and double the contract record. ”

After a short search, Mety struggled and moved an extremely heavy book onto the counter.

Boom~

With her hand waving away the dust stirred up by the book, Mety quickly flipped it according to the contract of [Appetitey Blue Bear Beast].

"This contract has not been updated since it was released, but the individual with the scar on the left arm armor has submitted a sighting report two weeks ago, and the sighting location matches the vicinity of the stream and waterfall marked on the contract, so this contract is valid."

When Mety decided it, the team breathed a sigh of relief.

It stands to reason that if there happens to be a flood of green bears in the area, it is possible to receive a hunting contract.

The problem, however, is that there is no remuneration and there is a time limit.

After confirming the information, Meti sent an updated map of the stream area.

"Wait! .... Phew~ It's dangerous, the most important reminder almost didn't say, if you see a golden thunder in the clouds at the top of Lingfeng, please be sure to suspend hunting and go to higher terrain as soon as possible to avoid flooding, in addition, the thunder wolf dragon and the bubble fox dragon are active in the stream area, please be careful. ”

Métis told with a serious look.

"We'll be... Can you explain why? ”

Li Ming asked tentatively.

"At present, the guild has not come to a conclusion, but based on observations, it has come to the law that when the golden thunder light appears on the top of the Spirit Peak, the surrounding rainfall will increase dramatically."

Métis informed.

"Got it, we'll pay more attention."

The next process is basically the same as that of the Sandstone Cave Branch, receiving supplies.

"Big brother, this tent seems to be moldy."

In front of the guild warehouse, Li Ming pointed to the improvised tent and said.

"This hunter, it's not like, it's moldy, but I can't help it, every tent has mold, but the area is different, why don't you replace one?"

The middle-aged male storekeeper said helplessly.

"Forget it, this inflatable suit is used to ward off floods?"

Li Ming picked up the strange armor covered with air bags.

"Yes, remember not to poke it with sharp objects, especially sharp hunting weapons."

The warehouse manager emphatically reminded.

"Clear, is it unusual for a recent stream disaster to happen?"

"The frequency is okay, about once a month, but when there is golden thunder in Lingfeng, you must go to higher ground as soon as possible, because the flood will come soon."

"Thank you."

Li Ming believes that this kind of disaster has formed a consensus in the stream area, but the reason is still a mystery.

"Well, I wish the team a successful hunt and an early return."

The storekeeper did not forget to send his blessings.

Returning to the hall with the supplies received, the combat deployment began.

"In this harsh environment, it is better to minimize the large-scale movement in the wild, I recommend that after arriving at the hunting area, first slaughter a few wild pill birds as a meat reserve, and then collect the whole hive, and then use the hive as bait to set traps, and squat until the blue bear beast automatically appears."

Li Ming said the deployment.

"I agree, but there are no hive markers on the map, and there doesn't seem to be anyone in the team who can pick hives."

Chu Ying said as she looked at the map tiled on the desktop.

"Can't you just take it off?"

After Li Ming finished speaking, one person and two cats at the same table cast surprised glances together.

"Dangerous?"

"It's very dangerous, I've experienced it myself."

Bubu said with a solemn face, as if some bad memories were evoked.

Li Ming speculated that perhaps the bees in the Strange Hunting World also had something special.

"It's okay, there's so much mud here, I'll pick the hive."

Li Ming said confidently.

"Let's go now? If you arrive at the predetermined location and set up camp before tomorrow morning, you can rest for half a day and start preparing for the hunt. ”

Chu Ying's suggestion was quickly adopted by the whole team.

The deployment plan is finalized, and the team sets off.

At night, the clouds fade and the sky is star-studded.

The chirping of insects continued to sound, and yellowish light pulsed through the jungle.

The stream area is revived.

In the mountain jungle shrouded in quiet moonlight, the team that keeps moving forward in the mud is rushing all night.
