"Any extra helpers, meow?"
Midodo asked.
"Yes, when we were trying to escape the crater, that monster with thorns all over its body, remember."
"Is that the ferocious Annihilation Dragon?"
"That's it."
"But no matter how the other party looks, it doesn't look like a monster meow who can help."
Midodo was skeptical.
"In fact, there is no need to help, as long as it is properly guided according to the ecological characteristics of the other party, it will take action on its own."
The Annihilation Dragon can be called the spokesperson of the ecological self-purification system, and what is even more outrageous is that the ancient dragon is also in its recipe.
If the New World had not been destroyed, then there would still be a battle with the Heaven and Earth Brilliant Dragon on the isolated island of origin.
When he came to the original continent, he gnawed the snake emperor dragon at the beginning.
It can be said that there is no inclination at all towards the forces on both sides.
It is an excellent monster that can inflict "stinging".
"Even so, it still feels very sinister."
Miduoduo thinks back to the other party's appearance, and always feels that it is not too close to fighting together.
"Don't worry, I'll try to contact it at the beginning, and if it doesn't work, I'll make other plans."
After Li Ming finished speaking, he began to deploy.
The fall of Dondoruma has caused many people to lose their homes, and at the same time, it has also aroused a sense of distress.
The hunter assessment at the guild headquarters is carried out every day.
Early in the morning, Li Ming looked at the large number of people preparing for the assessment on the balcony, and felt relieved.
I feel that the Blue Star Flame and the others may be among them, and they can't be decided.
After breakfast, Ni Shuangchuying asked about the recent plans.
If there is no arrangement, the two want to serve as hunter instructors for a period of time, passing on their combat skills and experience to rookie hunters.
Li Ming pursued baa for the sake of hunting.
And it emphasizes its own monster image, and it is naturally best not to bring team members there.
So I agreed with the idea of the two.
Packing up the equipment and carrying a cargo cat car, Li Ming and a group of cats got on the slide car to the Lu Coral Plateau at noon.
According to the available eyewitness information, it has been seen more than once that the baa is hovering over the crater.
It's just that the guild hasn't started to delve into the plan in depth, and relevant information is very scarce.
At 10 a.m., the slide car arrived at the field base.
Li Ming did not stop, took the cats, and continued to march deeply.
On the surface of a very resilient waterlogged coral, a camp was established.
Early in the morning, raindrops crashed down the tents and crackled.
The flying coral eggs are pressed down, and the world looks particularly clear.
Li Ming pondered for a moment, and felt that wearing wind and rain armor and flying around, although the exploration efficiency was very high, there was also a risk of being poked by the Heavenly Comet Dragon.
So it was replaced with the skeleton armor with the most evil shape and a lot of bone materials.
Then he took Midodo on the road to the core area that had not yet been explored.
However, he didn't go far before he noticed a strange phenomenon.
Some of the insects that need to climb to the top to collect and block the surrounding area from the towering terrain have large insects that are cultivated at designated points.
If it's an outlying area that has already been explored, it's easy to understand that guilds use it to make it easier for hunters and gatherers to travel.
However, this is an unexplored area, there are very few people passing through, and the deployment of the big flying insects needs to be maintained, which is really a bit difficult to understand.
However, although the situation is abnormal, the danger is not.
And because the connecting direction is towards the giant crater, it provides great convenience for travel.
Pulling the insect silk and leaping, Li Ming and Mi Duoduo soon came to the bottom of a towering rock formation.
On the giant disc-shaped blades of a waterlogged coral, a woman dressed in a yellow weaver's uniform and carrying an insect box on her back deploys a large insect jump point.
One person and one cat glanced at each other, and Li Ming greeted softly.
"Hello, investigator."
The woman hummed softly and stopped, turning in surprise to check.
A guide cage hanging from the waist, a projector on the arm, and a heavy book straddling diagonally with a shoulder strap.
The equipment carried by the other party is extremely complete and professional.
Click~
Follow the focus and pitch knob on the goggles and turn it gently.
The other party focused his gaze on the hunter badge worn by Li Ming.
"You're the first Seven-Star Hunter! Li Ming! ”
In the midst of shouting excitedly, the other party pushed the goggles up.
"Yes."
Li Ming saw a familiar face.
"You know me?"
"Of course, you are the chief compiler, Aibo, and many of the ecological reports I have seen are written by you, and there are portraits of you on them."
"It's okay, in fact, those reports together are not as valuable as your rebellious Gu Longdu, but your light as a hunter is too strong, and the compiler's part is covered."
Ai Bo felt a little sorry for Li Ming.
As far as the merits of the compiler are concerned, they are not inferior to his career as a hunter.
"Are you here for ecological observations?"
Li Ming asked curiously.
After all, arranging large insects in the wild is not the job of the compiler.
"Yes, I want to send one more thing there."
Aibo turned, and pointed to the top of the highest mountain beside the crater.
"What's that?"
"The ashes of someone you respect."
"Ugh"
Li Ming was quite surprised.
"This is her last wish, hoping to sleep in the high places of the land coral platform forever, I thought it was not possible, but I didn't expect a similar ecology to suddenly reappear on the original continent."
Aibo sighed.
"It just so happens that I'm going over there to do an ecological survey, let's go through together."
"Really, thank you so much, to be honest, the monsters that appear frequently are indeed the biggest problem that hinders the behavior."
Ai Bo said excitedly.
"You're welcome, the big flying insects you arranged along the way also helped us save a lot of effort."
The two of them and a cat have been walking together ever since.
"Ms. Aibo, the big backpack on the worm box, is it a tent?"
Midodo asked curiously.
"The lone compiler has so much to carry that he usually doesn't carry a tent."
Li Ming responded.
"I understand meow, they are all tools for ecological observation."
"Well, it's actually a food reserve."
Ai Bo said helplessly.
"The compiler's limited access to food is understandable."
"Anyway, you didn't bring any food, are you planning to hunt for food while you're eating?"
Aibo asked.
Wait until you're hungry to hunt for food, which a normal hunter team would never do.
Because once the food supply is interrupted, the members will be exhausted by hunger.
Under the vicious circle, it is very easy to be dangerous.
But for the first Seven Star Hunter, this conventional thinking may not be applicable.
"Yes, if it's an area with smooth traffic, the team will also bring a cat cart, and here, you can only hunt for food along the way."
"That's great, you don't have to carry a load to go."
Ai Bo knew that it was dangerous, but he couldn't help but be envious.
呲呲~
A grinding sound sounded, behind a huge white barnacle.
Several pairs of round eyes are revealed, and they gaze vigilantly.
"It's a cat lizard dragon, how did the small monster that originally inhabited the New World escape?"
The cat lizard dragon that hunted in the group suddenly fled, which surprised Aibo a little.
Boom~
Li Ming placed the white skeleton storm shield axe on his back on the ground, and then ran forward.
"Ugh"
Ai Bo was stunned when he saw this.
Because the two behaviors of putting down the hunting weapon and rushing forward are very conflicting with the hunter.
Bang~
The cat lizard dragon at the end of the team was caught by Li Ming and hit his head to the side with a punch.
Ai Bo suddenly realized that the hunt for small monsters could no longer be carried out by the other party without hunting weapons.
Bang~
Li Ming kicked and was kicked in the abdomen by the cat lizard dragon, which hit the tree-like coral on the side.
With his tongue stretched out, he lay down on his back and died.
Li Ming is equipped with a perception system for detecting the surrounding situation.
The combat system was unnecessary, and it was too bloody and brutal, so it was not temporarily switched.
The white mist balls that burst out of the two dragons were exactly the same, and they were all [Night Vision], [Cluster Hunting], and [Blood Trail Tracking].
Although the selection value is not large, Li Ming still selects the three balls by alternating the way of taking.
Then he carried the body on his shoulders and returned to where the man and the cat were.
Midodo immediately peeled the skin and lit a fire, and Aibo also paused his march and sat down to rest.
Through small talk, it was learned that although Ai Bo longed for the New World, the investigation team had long since been stopped.
So I stayed in the original continent all the time.
Then she met a teacher who changed the course of her life.
He has always been known as the Master of the Wilderness.
The Master of the Wilderness is both a hunter and a codifier.
Able to observe and investigate alone in various dangerous environments, he is also one of the members of the first phase of the delegation to the New World.
"The teacher said that in the New World, she explored an area with beautiful scenery and different ecology, where the highest peak can witness the origin and change of life, but unfortunately she was forced to evacuate before she could figure out the truth about Gulongdu, and until her later years, she still misses there."
Ai Bo said with a sad face.
"The ashes you carried."
"Yes, it's the Master of the Plains, and she would be shocked to know that the mysterious place she once visited has reappeared here."
Li Ming immediately understood why Ai Bo had sprinkled the other party's ashes here.
"By the way, have you ever seen a monster with a rat head, oversized ears, and a white coat that can make its body swell with inhalation?"
Li Ming asked.
The reason why he wanted to inquire about the information of the floating dragon was mainly because he felt that his roar was still not loud and wild enough.
If you gain the ability to inhale, you should be able to give a big boost to the roar.
It's not a key ability, but it's still very helpful for deepening the impression of monsters.
Ai Bo picked up the heavy note on his side, flipped through it for a while, and then held the book up to Li Ming.
"You're talking about it, aren't you?"
"Yes, that's it."
Li Ming looked at the shape depicted in the stick figure sketch and gave confirmation.
"According to the information I observed, the other party will inhale the flying coral eggs into the body, so as to complete the feeding, and the floating characteristics of the membrane after expansion, I feel that it is possible to make an airship airbag, but unfortunately on the current path, there is no trace of it."
Ai Bo said.
"Currently this path. Before that, you tried other paths to the summit? ”
"Yes, but due to various dangers, we can't go any further. But now it's okay, if you go with you, you can probably get out safely even if you encounter the ancient dragon, Midodo will bring the map, and I'll mark the location of this monster. ”
"Thanks meow."
Midodo was about to deliver the map.
呲呲~
After a while, the surface of the skewered cat lizard dragon meat quickly appeared, and golden grease appeared.
One person and one cat began to eat.
"Lady Ebo, why don't you eat meow? Is the amount of food eaten relatively small? ”
Midodo asked curiously.
Aibo, who was holding a portable can of food, looked away from the barbecue.
"How do you say it?"
"Don't worry, just wait until you meet along the way, and then hunt for food."
Li Ming knew what the other party was worried about.
Food in the field is the lifeblood of the Hunter Squad.
Although the monster hunt world is keen to share and help each other, if you eat too much in one go, it will definitely cause trouble to the other party.
"But as we go deeper, the number of small monsters like the cat lizard dragon will decrease."
Aibo reminded.
"Then hunt the big monsters."
"Well, then you're welcome."
Seeing that Li Ming was not joking, Ai Bo instantly let go of his psychological burden.
"Please enjoy the meow, I bake it very fast"
Halfway through Midodo's words, a bare rod-like bone had fallen to the ground.
"Uh, I've met my opponent."
Mi Duoduo looked unkind, and the cat's paw quickly turned the barbecue crank.
"Hmm~ I don't know if it's an illusion, I always feel that the monster meat here is more resistant to hunger after eating."
Aibo, who was chewing on the barbecue, commented.
"Maybe the energy nourishment here is relatively sufficient, resulting in the whole ecology being in a high-energy state, and it is not surprising that the meat quality is different."
Li Ming also had a similar feeling, so he speculated.
At noon, the intermittent rain stopped and the sky cleared.
The pond is formed by the pond of the waterlogged coral, and the paralyzed gas frog with a green and yellow body surface croaks and quacks.
"Hey meow!"
Before the swaying eel was about to rise, it was pinched by Mi Duoduo, who was squatting, with a cat's claw, and pulled it out of the soil.
After loading into the backpack, Midodo quickly caught up with the two people who were moving forward.
"There are a lot of novel species that I haven't seen here, and I can't catch them at all."
"It's okay to capture ecological samples, but when you encounter gas frogs, you have to pay more attention."
Li Ming reminded.
"Okay meow."
As the two and the cat approached the crater, the updraft surge became more and more powerful.
The scattering height of pale pink land coral eggs is also gradually increasing.
Under the sunlight, thousands of pale pink spots filled the sky, and the scene was extremely gorgeous.
Whew~Whew~
The sound of powerful wings flapping was heard.
Everyone looked up and watched, and Li Ming was the first to lock on to the target.
It was a scaly carapace, all of which were cherry pink female fire dragons.
Aibo ran two quick steps, a sliding shovel close to the ground, and ducked neatly under the coral tree.
Use environmental occlusion to achieve self-concealment.
"Looking at the shape of the wing bones, it is the cherry fire dragon of the original continent, and it should be attracted by the ecological environment here."
"Recording, mate."
Aibo, who was lying on the ground and hidden, opened the book and began to describe.
"Is this the Hunter and Codifier combined in a squad mode?"
This two-player squad mode is generally only activated when exploring uncharted areas.
However, due to the fact that humanity has been in a state of collapse before, Midodo has only heard of it by hearsay.
