Lightning strikes penetrate, and the axe blade is embedded in the trend.

Click~

A crackling sound was heard.

Where the wing bone is broken, the half of the wing leaning towards the outer edge loses its support and bends downward.

The membranous wing is torn and the wing bone is broken.

Aware of the wind pressure of waving the wings, it is no longer able to bring any lift.

The poisonous demon bird gave up fleeing and turned his head and decided to fight to the death.

Li Ming dismantled the shield axe when he landed, and he encountered a head collision with the poisonous demon bird.

Softened the defensive stance and slid back in the sand.

The poisonous demon bird flicked its long tongue and rushed in pursuit.

Li Ming raised the shield again and protected it in front of him, only to see a large patch of viscous purple venom pouring out of his mouth.

So the shield was raised above his head to prevent the venom from falling down.

Whew~beep~

Beside him, the sound of the hunting flute playing and waving through the air could be heard.

"Drink!"

The heavy flame feather horn smashed into the poisonous demon bird's head, and a burst of fireworks flew away.

Li Ming saw that one side of the poisonous demon bird was off the ground, and his body leaned slightly sideways, and he immediately clenched his left fist.

Bang Bang!

The current is conducted in the Thunder Dragon's gauntlet, pouring into the shield in large numbers.

Li Ming stepped forward, and the shield slash hit the poisonous demon bird's jaw, and then used his body to swing and drive, launching a whirling slash.

The poisonous demon bird immediately fell out of balance and fell sideways.

The three of them run to find a good angle of attack.

Li Ming used a lightning axe to slam his head.

Ni Shuang came to the broken wing bone and released the three-tone play.

Chu Ying aimed at the tubular tail that hung down into the sand, and fired an electric shock rapid projectile.

The poisonous demon bird, covered in scales, kept fluttering in the sand, wailing.

After bracing himself up, he dragged his body with his limp legs and turned away from the team to evacuate.

However, the slash chased all the way and tailged, and could only erupt poison gas from the tail, temporarily forcing the team back.

However, the fatal shortcoming of one wing being seriously damaged and unable to fly and escape is still not solved.

Blood and venom, after the dark yellow sand dune extended for hundreds of meters, the poisonous demon bird was unwilling to lie on the ground.

Two green and one green, three fog balls burst out.

The three of them were all eroded by the venom to varying degrees, and they did not rush to check the condition of the corpse, but poured the antidote into it, and at the same time, with the assistance of the cat, the venom residue on the surface of the armor was cleaned and erased.

Li Ming felt dizzy and dizzy, and his limbs were a little weak.

It is speculated that it may have been caused by the heavy physical consumption of hunting and combat, as well as the erosion of poison gas.

So he tore open the outer box of food with his bare hands and ate to replenish his strength.

When everyone has almost dealt with the effects of poisoning, they start cutting the material.

Chu Ying wants to create a complete set of poisonous demon bird armor, and the materials required will naturally not be less.

So he discussed the cutting with Bubu.

The work of protecting corpses and firing signal flares to summon investigators was undertaken by Ni Shuang on his own initiative.

And what Li Ming wants to do is naturally a transcendent ritual of love.

The poison and blood were pooled together, mixed with sand, and formed into black lumps under the sun.

Li Ming kicked the fog ball away from the corpse with his foot, and then unfolded the selection.

[Bullying]. ★★★

Introduction: When the poisonous demon bird encounters the enemy, it will first judge the strength of the opponent, and if it is judged to be weaker than itself, it will burst out with a strong fighting spirit, otherwise, the fighting spirit will be greatly reduced.

Is this a fog-like ball of consciousness?

In terms of increased will to fight, this looks a bit like a weakened version of [Challenger] launched against weak monsters.

It's a pity that in the face of powerful monsters, it also comes with a cowardly effect.

Weak enemies strike hard, and strong enemies only promise.

In the natural ecology, there seems to be nothing wrong.

In the past, there were monsters in the game, and I also like to find some low-star monsters to rebuild my self-confidence.

However, the tactical and consciousness fog balls are generally of low selection value, after all, humans are too good at these aspects.

Li Ming turned to look at the second cyan mist ball.

[Color identification]. ★★★

Introduction: The Poison Demon Bird's excellent color recognition ability can judge the strength of individual monsters from their appearance.

So for a golden lion with black hair, is it too inconspicuous and despised?

After that, [bullying] was launched, so it led to a tragedy?

Li Ming felt that this should be a detection fog ball.

The monster's keen vision, combined with the knowledge reserve of humans, should have a strong effect.

Although this time the cyan mist balls exploded two at once, they didn't have too eye-catching skills.

Li Ming only pinned his hopes on the last green fog ball.

[Telescopic Giant Tongue]. ★★

Description: The poisonous demon bird has a giant tongue that can be retracted freely, and it has excellent toughness.

"Ggag ~ Gash ~ "

Li Ming opened his mouth with all his strength and stuck out his tongue.

I feel like I can't think of any use for anything other than the hanged ghost after loading.

It's a little disappointing, but I didn't expect the poisonous demon bird to burst into any suitable fog balls.

Li Ming pondered for a moment and chose [Color Discrimination].

After all, he can do such a thing as beating weak monsters without fog balls.

Three hours later, investigator Sheng Ji, who was draped in a yellow camouflage net and carrying the dorsal fin of a sandfish, arrived at the scene.

Although there is a lot of cutting on the surface of the body, the incision is very smooth, and there is no sign of indiscriminate cutting.

Sheng Ji immediately carried out the hunting certification.

Since they could return by sand boat, the team immediately returned to the camp and packed everything up.

In the evening, we rushed back to the place where the sand boat route was.

Seeing the cats waving their flags, a large sand boat stopped.

Judging from the personnel and vehicle configuration alone, the captain speculated that the other party was a cat caravan escorted by hunters.

So the freight price was negotiated, and the result was halfway through the negotiation.

The captain glanced at the monster materials carried on the cat cart, and after careful questioning, he found that this was a hunter team returning from hunting poisonous demon birds.

The team was immediately invited to the sand boat and promised to send them back for free.

Late at night, in the sandstone cave stronghold, in the small courtyard of Wood A.

After cleaning, the armor was hung by the cats.

There is no environment in the field that requires constant vigilance, and the tired squad begins to rest.

After Li Ming finished his supper, he summoned the [Color Discrimination] fog ball and stuffed it into his chest in the small courtyard.

There was a slight itching sensation in the eyes, and the eyelids blinked violently a few times, and he reached out and rubbed them with the back of his hand.

A moment later, the sun was shining and the green leaves were shivering.

With his head flicking from side to side, Li Ming found himself in a hatching nest made of dead branches.

Pink claws, petite wings, and other monster eggs in the hatching nest.

All indicate that this memory is retraced, from a cub.

It's fun.

used to be basically chased by monsters and witnessed the brutal side of the other party.

This time he became a cub, which made Li Ming feel really novel.

Haha, is this the juvenile of the poisonous demon bird, so warm.

Just when Li Ming felt that the experience was not bad, the perspective suddenly turned sharply.

Falling backwards with his body, Li Ming felt his arched back, which was moving backwards, an oval object that felt hard to the touch.

Sou~

Retreating to the edge of the hatching nest, Li Ming felt a light on his back, as if something had been pushed out.

The perspective turned again, and the poisonous demon bird cub changed angles, continuing to arch the monster egg with its back.

This is the end of the memory regression.

This time, Li Ming did not have adverse reactions such as vomiting, but his mentality was a little uncomfortable.

"What a strange experience for a dove to occupy a magpie's nest."

Hmph~Hmph~

At this time, the squeaky pig wearing a blue and white striped jumpsuit came to Li Ming's feet in a chirp.

"Humph!"

"Humph!"

As if dissatisfied with Li Ming's taunt, the pig's trotters rubbed the ground, ready to attack.

At this time, he suddenly noticed that there was a faint color overflow at the joint of the pig's trotters.

"Hey~hey~"

Li Ming knocked the squeaky pig down and vigorously rubbed the sides of the belly.

The squeaky pig who was kneaded immediately lay on his side and made a comfortable chirping sound.

The color at the joint of the force overflows and disappears.

It's a weird visual discernment, but since the muscles can be detected, attribute attacks are definitely easier to detect.

In this way, the poisonous demon bird relies on the overflow of colors around the target to observe the strength and weakness of the opponent.

Of course, this can also be the result of self-adaptation.

Regarding the visual realization principle of [color discrimination], Li Ming speculated.

The team rested until noon the next day.

Li Ming left 3000z and six bottles of self-produced strong medicine, wrote a note of greetings, fed the squeaky pigs in the garden, and took the sand boat to start the return.

Li Ming proposed that he wanted to go to Bernard Village and inquire about the transformation of the shield axe at the headquarters of the Dragon Calendar Academy.

This route is in clear conflict with returning to the Fortress of the Leaf.

After deliberation, the team decided to split up first.

Chu Ying Bubu went back to submit the hunting contract and create the Poison Demon Bird armor.

Li Mingni doubled his meter and led the cats to Bernard Village.

Five days later, the commercial transport turnover station.

Chu Ying Bubu waved goodbye to the sedan.

"Ni Shuang, when you left the Dragon Calendar Academy, you didn't have any contradictions, right?"

In the car, Li Ming inquired.

"No, I just think it's hopeless to get revenge like this, as for the concept, I'm still very compatible with the Dragon Calendar Academy."

Ni Shuang informed.

"It's good that you're not stressed."

After that, the truck drove for seven days to the village of Bernard, surrounded by grassland mountains.

Under the leadership of Ni Shuang, Li Ming came to the headquarters of the Longli Academy, which was established in the mountain.

Wearing a light blue uniform and holding a heavy book, it is standard for researchers here.

As for the hunters of the Dragon Calendar Academy, there are not many of them at present.

Ni Shuang glanced down the hall for a moment, then fixed his gaze on Ai Lu wearing a bachelor's hat.

"Sick, long time no see."

"Hey! It's Ni Shuangmeow! ”

Sick paused, clawing in greeting.

"This is the deputy head of the research group, Sick, the Li Ming of the ruthless squad, and the hunting cat Mi Duoduo."

Ni Shuang expanded.

"Hello meow."

Sensing something, Sick leaned in and pressed the cat's face to the leggings of a single umbrella bird.

"Wearing armor like this, the increase between the various parts has not been disordered, so amazing meow sorry, I noticed something new, and I couldn't help but go up and explore."

Sick took a few steps back and apologized.

"It's okay, where is the department that conducts hunting research?"

"About three months ago, I was dismissed by the dean."

Sick said, hanging his head.

"What about this style of hunting weapon modification?"

"You can do it in the headquarters workshop, but at the moment it is only after-sales, and it cannot be modified without a new license."

"Why?"

Ni Shuang asked puzzled.

The dissolution of the Hunting Skills Research Department was a tendency before he left.

But the weapon transformation of style hunting has also been marginalized, and it is really sudden.

"At present, the manpower and funds of the Dragon Calendar Academy can only be considered for research in one of the directions of ecological investigation or hunting battles, and the dean has no choice but to make."

Sick said helplessly.

"Wouldn't the previous research accumulation be in vain?"

Ni Shuang was a little unwilling.

"You can't say the same thing, in terms of hunting applications, the insect skills and flying claws promoted by the guild can be regarded as successfully replacing hunting skills and style hunting. Compared to the interruption of the development of airships, we are actually used to it. ”

Sick's words revealed a deep sense of powerlessness.

It shows that what the Dragon Calendar Academy has abandoned over the years is not only hunting technology research and style hunting.

"You can't give up completely, do you?"

Li Ming asked tentatively.

"There was a person who firmly objected and insisted on continuing the research, and the dean agreed to meow."

"Who?"

Ni Shuang asked urgently.

"The former head researcher, Dewen Meow."

Hearing this name, Ni Shuang, who was originally very expectant, showed disappointment in his eyes.

"Devin. The name is somewhat familiar. ”

Li Ming looked up and thought.

"The village chief of Bernard mentioned Meow, the chief researcher who piloted the airship and collided with the Celestial Comet Dragon."

Midodo reminded.

"Huh? That's him."

Li Ming wanted to speak and stopped.

"Meow is still alive, but he has suffered severe trauma to his leg and can only move in a wheelchair."

Sick informed.

"Thank you, Sik."

"You're welcome meow, there is a shortage of manpower in the hospital at the moment, if you are free, I hope to help pick up some contracts, I'm going to be busy."

With that, Sick hurried away.

The various chain reactions caused by the decline of human beings have made the research and development of the Dragon Calendar Institute difficult.

Now that it has simply stopped, there seems to be nothing incomprehensible.

After all, at the level of hunting applications, insect skills and flying claws have been widely accepted.

But Li Ming was a little depressed, because he didn't even know where the progress of his research was staying.

There is no relevant design accumulation in the guild workshop at all, and there is a great difference in the tendency of weapon modification.

Everything seems to be in a dead end.

"Where can I visit Dewen?"

In line with the principle of coming and coming, Li Ming wanted to make a final attempt.

"Don't go."

Ni Shuang's face was helpless.

"Isn't this Dewen very reliable?"

"Sort of, he's a little crazy, his mind is full of some extreme thoughts, the entire Dragon Calendar Academy is very clear, of course, it's not his fault."

"But if you don't go to him, I feel that there is no suitable person to match."

"Okay, I'll ask."

After Ni Shuang finished speaking, he walked to the reception counter.

After informing the reason, the receptionist's eyes also flashed with surprise, but she still gave guidance.

The two of them and a cat walked up the spiral staircase to the third floor.

Seeing the words "Airship R&D Department" on the crooked door plate, Ni Shuang raised his hand to clasp the door.

While! While!

"Please come in."

After a moment, a hoarse voice remembered.

Pushing the door open and entering, the room was dark.

Two dark red curtains keep sunlight out.

The light that comes through the cracks in the curtains is reflected on the plates supported by the easel in the middle of the room.

Li Ming fixed his eyes and saw that it was the Heavenly Comet Dragon soaring and in the clouds.

"It's Ni Shuang."

A voice rang out from the corner.
