0070 Team
Regarding the hazards caused by the dragon breeding season, the team focused on learning about it that night.
The Senqiu area has a suitable climate and many mountains, which is very suitable for nesting, and has always been the first choice for fire dragon breeding.
After the collapse of various ecological disasters, the number of fire dragons in the breeding season soared again because the forest hill area was least affected.
The hatchling of the young dragons, as well as the consumption of guarding the lair, will allow the male fire dragon to hunt with all his might.
The ecology of the Senqiu area is simply not affordable.
Faced with a lack of food, the only thing the dragon can do is expand its hunting range.
Unfortunately, the village of Kokot is in the midst of expansion and has been attacked more than once.
In order to ensure that the village is not completely destroyed by the fire dragon, suppressing the fire dragon breeding season has become the top priority for the village to deal with every year.
The next day, Li Ming, who decided to go by land, added two more carriages to the team's truck.
One of the carriages was used by the cat ambulance team led by Eller.
Although the roof of the car can also be settled, but in the face of the sun and heavy rain and other weather, the conditions of the cats are too difficult.
The independent carriage not only provides shelter from the wind and rain, but also ensures adequate rest and does not drain energy on the road.
The second carriage uses ice crystals as the inner wall to load food for this mission.
There are two reasons for this.
First, Li Ming's super large amount of food needs to have sufficient reserves.
The second is that there are fire dragons and hunters gathering in the Senqiu area, two large meat consumers.
Not to mention the herbivorous dragon, the blue speed dragon is estimated to have been eaten and migrated.
The guild will definitely have some countermeasures against this, but Li Ming doesn't want to go hunting without enough to eat.
A wagon of raw meat seems to be a lot, but in fact, it is necessary to hunt along the way to fill the consumption, and it is possible to enter the forest hill area in a fully loaded state.
This is the main reason for traveling by land.
The next day, the team embarked on a journey to the village of Kokote in a van towed by two Bobos.
At night, Mi Duoduo took out the thunder light insect cage and mounted it on both sides of the carriage for lighting.
On the grass beside the road, Bubu was watching from the crowd of Meilu, skillfully cutting meat steaks with a kitchen knife to prepare for dinner.
Li Ming, who was lying on the grass and looking at the huge full moon in the sky, sighed.
"If only it could go on like this"
Chu Ying, who was sitting on the side, was maintaining and overhauling the first type of tight syringe.
Suddenly remembered something, so he asked, "Li Ming, what are you doing with so many thunder light insects?" ”
"In order to launch the secret art of ancient hunting."
"Is there a name for that?"
"Name. Thunder attribute liberation slash. ”
Li Ming temporarily got up one.
"Sounds awesome, if only the ballista had so many moves."
"Moves are such a thing, as long as you are willing to open your mind and concentrate on research, there is always a way to practice, of course, it is difficult to say whether it is really easy to use."
"Open your mind and concentrate on research."
Chu Ying finished thinking thoughtfully, and seemed to have an understanding.
After 11 days of travel, there was a rare congestion on the road due to the large number of trucks passing by.
The truck, which wanted to escape, retreated out of the passage in an orderly manner, and the team quickly entered the village.
As the birthplace of hunters, the village of Kokot has a strong hunting atmosphere, and all industries are based on hunting.
At this time, the hunting festival is underway, and nine out of ten people who walk through the village are hunters.
Outside the village guild branch, rows of slatted tables occupy a large area.
Carrying a plate and a barrel glass, Elu walks through the room, delivering barbecue and wine to the hunter team.
At the entrance of the medical hall connected to the branch, a row of hunters lying on the cat cart waiting for treatment were being cared for by Ai Lu, who was dressed in white.
In the midst of the chaos, the team occupies a corner of the table.
Li Ming went to the counter and lined up for contract authentication.
In the crowded hall, three receptionists handle business at the same time.
After waiting for about half an hour, Li Ming came to a middle-aged female receptionist.
"What can you help with this little hunter?"
"Hello, I want to certify the deed."
Li Ming said, sending the contract of the Queen of the Earth.
"Samsung Squad. No defeats! It's just that it's a bit difficult to deal with only two people, it seems that there is a less experienced individual, which is more suitable for the ruthless team, please wait a moment."
The middle-aged female receptionist rummaged through a thick pile of information.
Obviously, even if they are all female fire dragons, the difficulty of hunting will vary depending on individual differences.
"Is it a female fire dragon who has just entered her adult form?"
Li Ming asked tentatively.
"That's right, I don't think I even have a spouse found individual information, and I haven't found a spouse yet, the investigator named it Hatchling No. 3, and the recent range of activities is between District 8 and District 9, and because I can only compete for very little food every day, the overall state is relatively poor."
The middle-aged female receptionist looked at the pages of the book with information written on it and introduced.
"No problem."
"Although the team's hunting experience is good enough, the strength span of three-star monsters and four-star monsters is very large, your number is too small, and it's actually too late to regret it now, I can send dragon egg carrying tasks that are more suitable for the three-star team."
The middle-aged female receptionist gave a reminder.
The transport of dragon eggs can also effectively inhibit the expansion of fire dragons during the breeding season.
The boys are gone, and the senqiu, which is crowded with lack of food, has lost its meaning, so it is better to leave early.
Li Ming has the [Hatching Nest Exploration] of scratching the birds, and it is not difficult to carry the dragon egg contract in theory.
But in his eyes, this task has always been more underworld.
Every time I escaped from the nest with a quick little broken step, it was either a broken egg or a person died, and I couldn't get the crafting materials, so I didn't want to experience it a second time.
"Why do you want to carry dragon eggs? After finding the dragon's lair, can't you just destroy it all? “
Li Ming expressed his doubts, obviously this method is more thorough and effective.
"How to say that the fire dragons who can come to Senqiu to actively participate in the breeding season are generally relatively young, they may be hostile to hunters, but far to the extent of mortal hatred, if the hunters have a plan to destroy the nest, all the dragon eggs are not left, then the fire dragon's attitude towards humans will also change, and it is easy to appear extremely hateful to human individuals, if this situation occurs frequently, it is more dangerous than simply expanding the predatory range."
The middle-aged female receptionist explained.
Li Ming suddenly understood that the expansion of the predatory range of the fire dragon group was only out of its own needs.
Stealing eggs from the nest is also very common in the ecology.
A nest of about ten fire dragon eggs, one or two less, whether it is stealing by birds or stealing by humans, fire dragons are basically accustomed to it.
But if all the eggs in the nest of eggs that have been worked so hard are broken, then it will inevitably be revenge.
"I see. The team still wants to receive the Earth Queen contract, please help certify. ”
"Alright, I wish the team an early return."
After the middle-aged female receptionist finished speaking, she pressed the seal.
"This is the individual intelligence book, this is the map, the food in the Senqiu area is currently seriously scarce, please remember to receive the supplies and portable food, the guild's cat ambulance team has all been dispatched on standby, you can go to the marked standby point to check before the hunting battle, and if you are lucky, you may be able to find an idle team to accompany you."
After receiving the information, Li Ming was about to go to the warehouse and saw two familiar figures.
It's Lindsay in a sand dragon suit and Waxiu with a double battle axe.
Lindsay's partner hunting cat Sanye, after observing Li Ming for a while, exclaimed and asked, "Is it Li Ming?" ”
"That's right, it's me."
The enlightenment of strength training was taught by Lindsay and Sanye together, and Li Ming was deeply impressed by them.
The two of them who didn't notice Li Ming and a cat immediately looked over.
A scythe dragon king's helmet with a bird feather ornament.
The gauntlets on both sides are green bears on the left and strange dragons on the right.
The Daimyo Shield Crab armor worn in the rest of the parts is considered the most normal to wear.
I don't know if it's an illusion, the two of them and the two cats both felt that these shield crab armor was rhythmically expanding with Li Ming's breathing.
"Three Star Hunter Badge."
Waxiu looked surprised.
"It's Li Ming! Long time no see. ”
Lindsay stepped forward and grabbed Li Ming's shoulder.
"It's a lot stronger, and it seems that there is no slackness."
"You too, this equipment was made by that earth sand dragon?"
"That's right, it's much stronger than my previous iron armor."
Lindsay said, tapping her knuckles twice on the sand dragon's breastplate.
"It's a little more expensive, and the accumulated family funds have been emptied, not to mention these, you and Mi Duoduo are also here to steal dragon eggs?"
"No, it's to certify the contract of the Queen of the Earth."
"Alas, I envy your team for being able to hunt female fire dragons."
Lindsey sighed wistfully.
"Isn't this pact a conscription type?"
Li Ming asked curiously.
"Yes, it was recruited, but due to the successive failures of the last two hunts, the Kokot Village is unwilling to distribute it to us, so only the contract for the transportation of dragon eggs can be received."
Lindsey hung her head and said.
"Since it's an emergency contract, and you're a three-star team, are you still only two people?"
Li Ming sensed the problem.
"You said yes, obviously you just ask for teammates who love strength training and act cautiously, but they have never been able to recruit."
Lindsay was helpless.
"It's really inappropriate for two people to hunt female fire dragons, the risk is too high."
"Makes sense, how many people are in your squad? If it's three, can you get Washo to join? ”
Lindsey whispered.
"Well, there's only two of them at the moment."
"That's a pity, if only three. Yes? Only two? ”
Lindsey exclaimed.
"Yes."
"Didn't you just say that the two of them went hunting the female fire dragon, and the risk was too high?"
"As a hunter, you must be brave enough to take risks."
"Then I want to join with Wasei, okay?"
"Okay."
"That's a promise?"
Lindsay was surprised.
"Although the ruthless squad is well prepared, they have never fought with a four-star monster, two more people are naturally a good thing, and if I witness the fire dragon being killed on the way, I will also go to the mercy and transcendence ceremony, but I hope that the two of you can protect another teammate and the cat ambulance team."
With the opening of the hunting event, a large number of fire dragons will definitely be hunted.
Li Ming's original plan was to first rub the fog ball with fire-resistant ability, and then go head-to-head with the target female fire dragon to maximize the advantage of the fog ball.
But it takes a long time to walk through the forest hill area.
In other areas, even if Li Ming is out of touch with the team, Chu Ying and the cat ambulance team can protect themselves.
The Kesenqiu area is currently full of fire dragons, and its mobility and hunting ability are very strong.
At this time, if there are two more three-star teammates, it should be no problem to ensure safety.
"Good! Come on, the contract has been settled! ”
At the counter, when she heard that two more three-star hunters had joined the ruthless squad, the middle-aged female receptionist smiled heartily and seemed to be a lot more relieved.
In terms of rations, in consideration of the problem of predation, the number of food items carried by each person has increased to 10 boxes.
However, the storekeeper still reminded that if the hunting cycle is long, it is still hoped that the team can bring some meat ingredients.
Li Ming took Lindsay Waxiu to the corner of the table, and wanted to introduce each other, but found that only Bubu was there.
"Bubu, where's Chu Ying?"
She said that she thought of an idea and went to the truck to do tricks and developed a meow.
"Trick development. With such a dense number of people in the village, there is a risk of accidental injury, right? ”
"It's a protective meow."
"You sit here and wait."
After Li Ming finished speaking, he came to the door of the Chamber of Commerce where the truck was stored.
The first passenger car did not.
There was also no second cat-carrying carriage.
In the third frozen compartment where food is stored, Chu Ying, who is holding a hot drink in her hand and trembling slightly, is sitting on a frozen raw meat block.
"Li Ming. Your words have inspired me a lot. ”
"Research progressing?"
"Frozen Armor."
Chu Ying's fingers, the water storage part of the water beast's armor that has been frozen.
"It's a good idea, but the process can be optimized, such as putting the water beast armor in the car, and people standing outside the window to observe."
“.”
Chu Ying, whose eyebrows were frosted, blinked, and her face became gloomy.
"When you try anything at the beginning, you will have something that looks stupid, and it's normal, and I won't tell anyone about it."
Li Ming gave encouragement.
"Thank you."
Retrieving Chu Ying, Li Ming introduced Lindsay Waxiu.
Finally a member joined, or two at a time, Chu Ying was quite happy.
It's just a little unpredictable about the personalities of the two.
After Lindsay finished eating, he took off his armor and exercised in place without saying a word, and did strength training.
Waxiu didn't say a word, staring coldly at the sky, as if the world had nothing to do with it.
In the evening, some dormitories were already full.
The team came to the camp outside the village and set up a hunting deployment.
According to the investigators' observations, the female fire dragon Hatchling 3 did not have any physical defects to find a mate.
is a somewhat cowardly character, so that when faced with the courtship performance of the male fire dragon, he always responds with an evasive attitude.
"No, if there is a male fire dragon hero to save the beauty, the team will become a background board."
Li Ming pointed out the most important points to pay attention to.
"Then guide them to an enclosed area, such as a cave."
Chu Ying expressed her opinion.
"Let's use raw meat as a guide, this is the most attractive thing in the Morigaoka area."
Lindsay looked at the bone-in roast in her hand and made a proposal.
"You can add some spice to the raw meat. I'm in charge of that. ”
Li Ming confirmed.
"I'm not very good at working together, but I'm relatively strong in individual combat, so look at the arrangement."
Washo, who was watching the campfire, informed.
