"So if the skeleton dragon could be hunted back then, it might also produce a different situation, why are the guilds and the Dragon Calendar Academy unwilling to try as hard as they did to hunt the Heavenly Comet Dragon?"

Ni Shuang asked puzzled.

Although the Celestial Comet Dragon crusade failed, at least it was known to the whole world, proving that humans still have the courage to try.

And the skeleton dragon even has a pitiful record of simple ecological data.

"The consequences of every human defeat will not exist alone, and under the continuous accumulation, it may no longer be able to support large-scale hunting operations at that time."

Li Ming speculated.

"That said."

"Successful results will not simply exist, so honing hunting skills is the right way."

"Understood, in order to hunt the skeletal dragon, all we can do now is to keep refining ourselves."

Ni Shuang was full of energy.

"So now go and sift through the contract."

The two got up and ran to the counter.

Midodo saw a table of gourmet barbecue and began to enjoy it to himself.

The guild branch of Bernard Village was extremely busy, and after queuing for half an hour, the two of them came to the table with a bunch of contracts to sift through them.

However, the selection criteria of the two are different.

What Ni Shuang pursues is hunting experience and equipment building.

Li Ming is based on the characteristics of the monster, the type of fog ball that can burst.

Night birds, sickle crabs, ghost sharks, shadow spiders, water dragons, fish mud dragons, mermaid dragons.

After analyzing the four-star contract he had gotten for a while, Li Ming picked up the one with a scythe crab stick figure pattern.

[Shredded Pride]. ★★★★

Location: Relic Ridge - Outer Area - Cave with River Inflow (No Supporting Hunting Area)

Contract Target: Sickle Crab

Client: Excited Guards

Mission Description: The Sickle Crab smashes my armor, the newly created armor, I have no face to go back, ask the hunter team to help hunt, this shameless Sickle Crab!

Gratuity: 8400Z + 4600z (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.

Note 2: This area is an unsupported hunting area, with only a small number of certified investigators stationed.

The guild is unable to contact the local cat tribe to establish a first aid contract.

Maps, eco intelligence updates have been discontinued.

"I haven't received a backlog contract for a while, and the amount of subsidy for this one is so high."

Li Ming felt that the sickle crab was not only weak in the thunder attribute and could form an effective attribute target, but also the opponent was extremely good at using the sickle-like chelicerae to attack, breaking through the enemy's scale carapace, causing cracking wounds.

If you can explode the relevant fog balls, it will definitely bring a significant improvement to the attack end.

Even if you don't have one, the material can be used to create a sharpness of the Sickle Crab Shield Axe Kengo.

Ni Shuang took it and looked at it, with a hesitant expression: "It looks good, but it's a pity that it's a contract for the relics." ”

"Is this area dangerous?"

"It's a long way to go, there is no ecological intelligence available, and it's still the dream of the Dragon Calendar Academy, so I've basically given up on exploring it completely, and the only advantage may be that the team has its own cat car."

Ni Shuang gave an analysis.

"The area was completely abandoned. So what did the client do when he ran to the relics? ”

Li Ming was puzzled.

"Since it's a backlog contract, and the identity is still a guard, I may have escorted scholars to visit before, after all, there is a lot of archaeological value over there."

Ni Shuang speculated.

"Then choose it."

"Okay, I'll go to the receptionist for certification."

Ni Shuang said and got up.

"Ah, don't you want to talk about it?"

"Your choice is my choice."

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

"Alas~ you treat me as a thigh, where should I find my thigh."

Li Ming sighed helplessly.

The local ecological conditions of the Relics Ridge are unknown, and the hunting has not yet been scheduled.

The team was not in a hurry, and stayed overnight for a night's rest.

The next day, Li Ming purchased two cloud sheep deer, one male and one female.

A small fence was installed on the top of the chilled car, and after the loading was completed, it was officially on the road at noon.

Animal husbandry in the monster world, although it has always been a high-risk industry.

But Li Ming felt that the Nuanyangyang camp was developing well and could try it on a small scale.

Seven days later, in the early morning, the team rushed back.

"Who's that guy?"

Midodo, in the front room of the wagon, spotted a man in dark green armor looking at the wagon in the camp.

The hood that completely wrapped the head, as well as the round-hole goggles on the mask, made Li Ming recognize at a glance that this was armor made of poisonous demon bird materials.

"You'll know later, we're back!"

With Li Ming beckoning, Bubu appeared together, and Mi Duoduo confirmed that that person was Chu Ying.

"Welcome back!"

Chu Ying lifted the middle of the mask and lifted it, revealing a smiling face.

Back at the wooden house, Li Ming made it clear that he would hunt next.

Chu Ying said that the problem was not big, although the team had been seriously depleted by thunder insects recently.

However, the number of expedition teams in the camp has expanded to five, and it only takes about four or five days to complete the preparation of materials as long as you change the collection tendency on the cat board.

"I'm a little worried about this hunt."

Li Ming's face was worried.

"Me?"

Chu Ying was a little surprised.

"Yes, the sickle crab is a great threat to long-range hunters, and if you are not careful, you are likely to suffer heavy damage, and if it is a wound caused by the scythe's chelicera, it is difficult to run, and there are terrifying predatory attacks, I feel that it is difficult to have countermeasures."

Li Ming voiced his concerns.

"Hmph~"

Chu Ying smiled slyly.

"Well, do you have a solution?"

Li Ming speculated.

"You're not the only one working on the development of moves."

Chu Ying hugged her arms, looking very confident.

"Oh, can you show me?"

"Go outside."

The three men and two cats immediately got up and came outside the house.

Bubu blew the horn to cheer him on.

"This is my newly developed Flying Insect Technique, ascend to heaven, hey!"

As the Xiang insect silk was thrown out, Chu Ying, who jumped up, grabbed the insect silk and hung it in the air.

Li Ming and Ni Shuang, who looked up and watched, were a little inexplicable, because this can only be said to be a relatively basic application.

The next moment, another worm silk flew out diagonally.

Chu Ying pulled back and borrowed strength, continued to jump upward, and grasped the suspension again.

After the action was repeated again, the height continued to rise, and the people and cats on the ground could only look up.

"I don't think it's very useful, but it's a pretty good way to avoid land-walking monsters."

Ni Shuang gave an evaluation.

"We still have to give more encouragement, otherwise Chu Ying will lose confidence in research and development."

Li Ming took the lead in applauding.

After Chu Ying fell to the ground, she explained: "It may seem a little simple, but in fact, I am too thin to carry weights to keep hovering for a long time." ”

"Yes, the foam spray of the sickle crab is difficult to erupt at a pitch angle, and it would be even better if you could eat the sashimi quickly with one hand."

Li Ming gave suggestions for improvement.

Although he felt that the use of this flying insect was nothing new, it was pragmatic enough.

"Is a sashimi fish a sashimi that can quickly stop bleeding from a wound?"

Chu Ying asked.

"That's right, you can also train adult cat combo skills with Bubu, and feed you with Bubu on your back, just call. Laceration healing techniques. ”

"It's amazing, I've thought of the name of the move, I'll improve it."

Chu Ying exclaimed.

"When it comes to sashimi, there should be one in the rations, but if it's not enough, it's troublesome, Midota!"

"Meow in it."

"Add sashimi to the purchase list, if you have the quantity. Let's start with 20. ”

After Li Ming finished explaining, he saw Ni Shuangzheng looking at himself with a strange gaze.

"What's wrong, Ni Shuang?"

"I feel that you seem to have a deep understanding of the Xiang Insect Technique, and it seems that you can even guide the weapons other than the shield axe."

"Maybe the successive tribulations and the destruction of the Flame Village have hindered the research and inheritance of the Xiangworm Technique, so I have more room for expansion."

Li Ming said modestly.

After all, his understanding of the Flying Insect Technique is more just a reproduction of the in-game performance.

"The explosive sound beads that I have been practicing, it is difficult to apply them to actual combat, can you give me guidance?"

Ni Shuang asked tentatively.

"I can only try as much as I can, what do you think is the difficulty of the application?"

"It's too slow to start, the sonic ball has to be wound with the worm silk first, and then connected to the hunting flute and placed on the ground, and the speed at which the vibration wave can be injected is also very slow."

"Can't Zhenbo be injected in advance?"

"No, the sonic ball is a one-time item that accumulates vibration waves to continuously expand its size, and as long as it is infused with energy, it will become extremely unstable in order to detonate in time."

"You can put an external flying worm, wrap it around the sonic ball, and give it to the cat rescue team to place the connection, so that it can be activated quickly."

"Keep it winding for a long time, the insects will resist, right?"

"Tie it tightly, and tie it in a dead knot."

"Well, that's a new way of thinking."

Ni Shuang lowered his head and looked at the Xiang Worm Box on his arm.

"As for the vibration wave energy injection speed is slow. When the time comes, add a clasp to the hilt of my energy storage sword, and I will release the insect connection, and everyone will help together. ”

"No, the shield axe can't release the amplitude of the sound wave."

"Try what you're afraid of, it's called Fit Technique! Symphony of Flutes and Axes! ”

Li Ming nodded, seemingly very satisfied with the name.

"Okay."

Ni Shuang agreed with some difficulty.

After all, he took the initiative to seek guidance, and Li Ming has now given the exact plan, so it's hard to say that it feels too outrageous to do it.

For the rest of the day, the team began to prepare.

"A bag of iron ore powder, processing scrap, the kind that doesn't need money, add a clasp to the bottom of the hilt of the silver-haired witch's energy storage sword, and attach it to a clasp that can firmly wrap around the silk of the insects. What do you need? ”

Dao Spine saw the slip given by Li Ming, and his face was puzzled.

"Don't worry, it's all helpful for hunting, by the way, how are the cats in the Remnant Ridge doing?"

"There are very few cat tribes in that place, mainly because the Heavenly Comet Dragon has been fixed for too long."

"That's right."

"If you see a cat that is willing to join, you must bring it back."

Knife Spine instructed.

"Don't worry, the team enjoys the treatment of a resident hunter, when will it be assigned a tooth hound?"

Li Ming asked.

"As long as the Leaf Fortress cannot be expanded, the tooth hound will not be able to expand the breeding, and it is very difficult to breed, and you can only wait in line if you want to become an adult, of course, you can adopt cubs and come back to raise and train them yourself."

Knife Spine informed.

"It's so troublesome, forget it."

Li Ming dispelled his thoughts.

The next day, the iron ore powder arrived at the camp.

After exercising with the green bear beast, Li Ming returned and ate bibimbap.

Five days later, the team was dispatched.

Due to the long distance of this hunt, the effect of the cat rice could not be maintained until the destination, so in order not to waste the ingredients, the team did not eat it at all.

After 14 days, the team arrived at the outermost transit terminal, deposited the trucks, and then began walking.

Seven days later, in the rising winds, we reached the top of the towering peak.

The ruins of a palace made of white stones appear in front of you.

When you come to the edge of the peak and look down, you can see a large number of relics that have merged with the mountain and the stone wall, emerging under the thin clouds.

"Stairway to Straight"

Looking at the stone steps that meander to the foot of the mountain, Chu Ying, who visited the Relics Mountains for the first time, was quite shocked.

Because this level of engineering is unimaginable now.

Even if Doruma had similar construction power, it could not have been used to build stone steps for towering peaks.

"It's a pity that the Tower of Babel was blown up, otherwise it would have only been more spectacular."

Li Ming put down the binoculars and said regretfully.

"How was such a powerful civilization destroyed?"

Ni Shuang was very puzzled.

"Many scholars have been studying all their lives, but they have no clue, so they can only wait for more ancient documents to be excavated and set off! The stairs are shaking! Pay attention to the cat car slow down, don't roll over! ”

After Li Ming finished speaking, the team marched towards the bottom of the mountain.

Since the map was still explored from the air by the dragon knowledge ship back then, it was completely time-sensitive.

At the same time, Li Ming loaded all the detection fog-like balls, and with the help of the current terrain height, the area below the mountain was surveyed and calibrated.

The contract describes it as a "cave with a river pouring in", and two of them have been discovered.

Time has passed, and whether the sickle crab survives is a question, and everything can only be left to chance.

At the foot of the mountain, the terrain becomes flat.

The huge number of poured roots expand and grow inside and outside the coil.

A large number of square stone bricks embedded in the mountain body reveal an indescribable sense of strangeness.

Whew~

The three jumping dog dragons, sensing the existence of the team, immediately surrounded them and let out a threatening roar.

"Local monsters are so rude."

Li Ming said, about to take off the energy storage sword and load it into the car and take it away.

"You haven't had a good rest lately, leave it to us."

Ni Shuang said, stretched out his hand to stop it, then picked up Yan Yu's horn and rushed forward.

"Bad rest. I've been in good shape lately. ”

Li Ming was a little inexplicable.

"Don't be too strong, your dark circles keep getting worse."

Midodo specified.

"It's not dark circles, it's just that you say yes."

Of course, the iron ore skin is inexplicable.

The jumping dog dragon died and fled, and since the regional intelligence was zero, the team had no intention of pursuing it deeply.

After all, even if the other party called the Jumping Dog Dragon King for revenge, it would only add meat reserves to the team.
