With President Park Yan's letter of recommendation, the cats of Pokai Village enthusiastically joined.

Loaded with the decomposed Behemoth materials, the five cat carts headed towards the freight transit area.

Retrieving the truck, the road conditions are improving, and the team can finally relax.

Eleven days later, the village of Bernard, the headquarters of the Dragon Calendar.

Inform Vegartha's Dean of the village of Bokei, and request the Monster Shield Axe and the Giant Gauntlet to the Workshop.

The team made their way to the third floor of headquarters.

The door number of the airship R&D department has been replaced by a sample warehouse retrieval room.

Knocking on the door and entering, Devon and Eluka did the same as usual.

"It's all sound and back, and the hunt should be a success."

Dewen said with a light smile.

"Yes, it's a pity that there is no ice jade of the giant beast."

"I'm going to go to the Hunters' Guild headquarters in a while, there should be a warehouse over there."

"It's not troublesome, even if there is no Yan Yu injection, the transformed Scorching Flame is already very useful."

No one is disgusted with weapons becoming more powerful.

But Li Ming heard the meaning of the text, and it seemed that he was going to do something out of the ordinary, so he still started it against the hunter union, so he hurriedly spoke out to dissuade him.

"Don't worry, I was asked to do observation research, if the results are satisfactory to the guild, then the material needs can most likely be met."

Dewen informed.

"I see, I almost forgot that you were the chief investigator of the Dragon Academy."

"Ahem! It's just that the position is gone, and the ability is still top-notch. ”

Eluka reminded.

"Uh, my description is inaccurate, Senior Dewen, what kind of monster did the guild ask you to observe and study?"

"The target of this commission is the Pavilion Mantis, to be specific, to study its behavior, you've all been to Dondoruma, right?"

"Yes."

"Because of the inconvenience, I haven't been to visit for a long time, it is said that the pavilion mantis, which occupies half of the city, has built a worm clock, which will only ring twice a day, but not long ago it has become four times a day, and the guild has no clue about this, and does not want to cross the line to do in-depth ecological investigation, so I want to gather scholars to observe and discuss it."

Devin explained.

"Then you're going to be busy for the next few days, right?"

"Don't worry, I'll go back after transforming the giant beast shield axe."

"I'm not worried about this, it's that I originally wanted to ask Senior Dewen for help."

"Tell me, there are some things that are easier to do in Dondoruma."

"Because of the impact of the battle between the Crashing Dragon and the Tyrannosaurus, the black giant sword in Bokai Village has reappeared, and I accidentally got a black block in the process of replacing President Park Yan's guard."

"The Black Fragment Dragon Calendar Academy also has similar samples preserved, and the follow-up guild should send someone to carry out excavation research on the spot."

Dewen speculated.

"It's not a shard, it's about the same height as me."

Li Ming said.

"Oh."

Dewen sighed meaningfully.

"No craftsman wants to try to create this kind of material, so you thought of me."

"Yes, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work, I'll take it back to Flame Village and try it."

"Eluka."

"Meow in it."

"Write back to the hunter headquarters, and say that I've been busy lately, so I won't go to the observation of the Pavilion Mantis."

"Okay meow."

Eluka had no doubts about Dewen's choice.

Catpaw picked up a pen and paper and began to write quickly.

"Don't thank me, I'm just curious about what the weapon created by such a large black block will be, and now that the Four Heavenly Kings have one electric dragon left, does the team have any plans?"

"The electric dragon has a strong ability to fly, and the team wants to go back to the camp to prepare first, and then try hunting after building a suitable heavy crossbow."

Li Ming informed.

"Very good idea, it seems that I don't need to give guidance, when will the preparations be completed, just come to me, where do you put the black block of the hunting contract that I will help the team communicate with in advance?"

"Hiding outside the village, I was going to be transported back to my camp."

"Just tell Eluka exactly where it is."

After concluding their conversation with Dewen, the team left Bernard Village and headed for the Falipe Fortress on their way back.

Eight days later, the wagon, full of cats, drove into the village.

Seeing this, the cats in the camp ran out to welcome them, and the knife spine was even more overjoyed.

"What did the team go through on this long trip and bring back so many cats?"

"The village of Bokai can no longer be sustained, most of these are the cats in the village, and they have a lot of work experience, a total of 49 of them."

Knife Spine was stunned, but he didn't expect the reason for this batch of cats to join was so heavy.

"I'll do my best to take care of the cats, well, your brother bear came back half a month ago."

"Oh?"

Li Ming's eyes lit up.

"It was very badly injured at that time, and it was covered in blood and fell in the shack by the sea, moaning constantly, and I couldn't bear it with the cats, so I went to deliver some herbs and food, and the next day alas."

Knife Spine bowed his head and sighed.

"Brother Xiong."

Li Ming had a bad premonition.

"Yes, it will be fine the next day, not only will it be alive, but it will also empty all the beehives, so that the cats will have no honey to eat."

"Listening to your description, I thought Brother Xiong was seriously injured and died."

Li Ming was a little speechless.

"In addition, Brother Xiong not only has increased in size, but his appetite is also soaring, and the color of his carapace and hair has become a little incomprehensible. I'm going to count the cats. ”

After the knife spine reminded, he impatiently guided the new cats and cats into the warm ocean tribe.

The cats with luggage rolls on their backs lined up in an orderly manner, their eyes constantly sweeping.

Everything in the camp shocked him.

The body size increases, the amount of food soars, and the color of the carapace and hair is incomprehensible.

With doubts, Li Ming came to the shack near the sea in the jungle.

Next to the white hill made of fish bones and animal bones, the bear brother, whose arm armor and hair are all red, is sleeping soundly on his side.

Is this the Red-Hooded Blue Bear?

Li Ming was quite surprised.

Bang~

Brother Xiong turned on his side, and there was a slight tremor on the ground.

Oh~

Brother Xiong's eyes were drowsy, and when he saw Li Ming in front of him, his eyes immediately widened.

Oh!

Boom! Boom!

got up and ran, grabbed and lifted Li Ming up.

Then he pressed it against his chest and rubbed it vigorously.

"Uh~uh."

The squeezed Li Ming let out a whimper, and was then put back on the ground.

Brother Xiong took a few steps back and stood still, his paws raised high on both sides, and let out a low roar, as if he was about to start a battle.

"Well, my stomach hurts, I'll talk about the fight later."

Brother Xiong, who tilted his head to listen, couldn't understand human words.

But according to the tacit understanding formed in the past, seeing that Li Ming did not put on a posture, it was speculated that it was inconvenient for the other party to make a move at present.

After bowing his head in some frustration, his gaze shifted to the side of the huge stone.

Stretch out the bear arm and pick it up, and start to lift it upwards repeatedly.

Whew~Whew~Whew!

The sound of air flow from the reel gradually intensified as the movement accelerated.

Brother Xiong of this strength, if he dares to fight with him, his life will be in danger, right?

If only there was a safety directive.

Li Ming felt that before fighting each other, he had to at least prepare.

Brother Xiong has returned alive and stronger, and the opportunity for higher-intensity physical training has appeared.

Both of these points made Li Ming happy.

It's the intensity of the increase, which is a bit beyond expectations.

What's even more unacceptable is that from the perspective of Brother Xiong.

If the performance of "Brother Xiong" in the ethnic group is no longer strong, then the identity and status will be reversed, and Li Ming will become the new "Brother Xiong".

Although this shouldn't change Brother Xiong's attitude too much, Li Ming is still a little unacceptable.

"I don't want to be a bear brother"

Li Ming gritted his teeth, and a spirit of not wanting to admit defeat easily surged in his heart.

Back in the room, put on a single green bear gauntlet and fasten the female fire dragon's belt.

Take out the bottle with the rodent in it, and stuff the fog ball related to the strength into the body.

The ghost medicine, the seeds of strange power were swallowed one after another.

Li Ming decided that he would compete with Brother Xiong in the most extreme form of strength.

Chu Ying was in the Feiye Fortress Workshop, and after looking through the crossbow atlas, she decided to ask for the weapon she wanted to build.

Then I wanted to try my luck at the guild branch to see if there was a corresponding contract being released.

"It's been a long time since I've seen the team, are Li Ming and Mi Duoduo okay?"

Shui Yun at the counter asked.

"Everybody's in pretty good shape."

"That's good, do the team have any monsters they want to hunt?"

Shui Yun said, opening the heavy book.

"The team wants to hunt the Ice Tooth Dragon."

"Ice Tooth Dragon is so coincidental!"

"Is there just a contract in place?"

"Actually, it's not just right, this hunting contract has been delayed for a long time, but the team has never picked it up, and the team has visited the frozen islands many times, and has not been defeated so far, which is very suitable for you."

Shui Yun handed over the contract.

"Location: Frozen Isles, the white knight of the contract name, the White Knight of Resentment, the Ice Tooth Dragon."

Chu Ying, who frowned slightly, integrated the information on the contract, and the image of an ice tooth dragon with a thin body and a fierce expression quickly appeared in her mind.

But when she thought of the Ice Tooth Cannon, which could be loaded with 3 ice bullets and 4 ice bullets at a time, she quickly made up her mind.

"This Ice Tooth Dragon team has encountered it, and it's a bit special."

"It's really special, the frozen archipelago is obviously deserted, but it hates humans very much, whether it is the investigator Lone Fox, the visiting team of scholars, or even the transport ship docking, it has been targeted."

Shui Yun agrees.

"Okay, I'll go back and talk about it."

Chu Ying returns to the warm ocean camp and confers with the other members.

Hatred against humanity, though it increases the threat to a certain extent.

However, the Frozen Isles are not a popular hunting area, and the Icetooth Dragons don't have much experience fighting the Hunters.

With the current setup and equipment of the squad, it should not be difficult to hunt it.

In addition, in response to the fog ball burst out by the Ice Tooth Dragon, Li Ming can also look forward to the increase in ice attributes.

"Since everyone agrees, then this resentful white knight, I will take it on behalf of the team."

After Chu Ying finished speaking, she was about to return to the branch to confirm, but when she saw Li Ming's state, she still couldn't help but ask.

"Li Ming, why are you wearing a helmet in the camp?"

"Safety first, always vigilant poof~ cough cough!"

Li Ming said, coughing violently.

After waiting for his breath to calm down, he added: "It's always right to be vigilant, by the way, can you postpone a week of hunting before setting off?" ”

"The supply ship to the Frozen Isles hasn't arrived yet, so it should be coordinated, huh. You're bleeding. ”

Chu Ying pointed to the blood dripping from her neck and reminded in a low voice.

"Yes."

Li Ming raised his trembling hand and groped for a long time before touching his neck.

"I'll meow."

Midodo picked up a towel and quickly wiped the blood stains away.

Chu Ying was puzzled, and it was rare for Li Ming to fall into such a weak state when hunting.

However, the other party repeatedly emphasized that the problem was not big, and she could only regard it as nothing.

A week later, three cat carts were pushed out of the camp with the cats cheering them off.

Midodo waved his claws goodbye, turned around and asked in a low voice.

"Li Ming, have you heard about the recent horror rumors in the camp?"

"No, there is a Feiye Fortress in front of it, and there is a cat armed team around it to protect it, can there be any terrifying rumors?"

Li Ming was a little surprised.

"It's true, and it's related to Brother Xiong, it is said that when it's not late at night, Brother Xiong is in the jungle near the sea, there will be a terrible howl, and many cats have heard it."

"Maybe it's the sound of Brother Bear snoring?"

"Maybe meow, when you don't have to take care of you who came back late at night, I want to hear it too"

Speaking of this, Mi Duoduo was stunned for a moment, as if he had noticed something, and Li Ming couldn't help but be a little nervous.

Not telling me about the hand-to-hand combat training with Brother Xiong now, it is not a deliberate concealment.

But the scene was too tragic, and he didn't want everyone to worry about it for no reason.

"So you also went to eavesdrop on Meow? Right? ”

Midodo firmly stated his speculation.

"Ah yes, that's why I confirmed that it was Brother Xiong who snored."

Li Ming didn't know why, but the logic became smooth.

"That's true."

Midodo was stunned.

The transport ship sailed for ten days and arrived at the frozen archipelago.

Regarding the evil deeds of the Ice Tooth Dragon, the crew members who often travel on this transport route said all the way, and they were stunned and did not repeat it.

Destroying a supply box or anything is a trivial matter.

Attacks lurking in the harbors of the Frozen Islands have already taken place several times.

So much so that it is no longer possible to carry out the transportation of a team of scholars alone.

After all, if it can't be safely docked, the entire transport ship will be in danger.

Li Ming speculated that after the other party survived the dragon to visit the hunt, his hatred for humans further intensified.

Frozen Islands coast, evening.

The sky was overcast and snowflakes were falling.

The captain watched for a long time in the detour, and confirmed that the Ice Tooth Dragon was not ambushed.

In addition, the ruthless team that was going to hunt was on the boat, so it was close to landing.

On the pale blue ice, the dilapidated hut that used to be a port marker has been reduced to the ruins of planks.

Before they could get off the boat, the team found some traces of the Ice Tooth Dragon on the snow.

The cat cart was unloaded, and the transport ship turned around and moved away like a desperate escape.

"The previous camp is no longer available, not on this side of the coast"

Chu Ying unfolded the map, her face embarrassed.

For the Ice Tooth Dragon, who is fighting at home, it is possible to be found in any area.

"The monster that has hatred for humans must be eradicated as soon as possible, and since it can come to the port to attack, I feel like it can try to squat for a while."

Ni Shuang made a suggestion.

"If you're going to hunt now, don't bother, I'll be able to get it there soon."

Li Ming is very confident.
