Soon a month passed.

The thriving forest ecology and the high-energy environment close to the core of the leylines have attracted a large number of organisms to settle in.

Insects, fish, birds, shrimps, lizards, butterflies, turtles, frogs, and species of the New World are gradually appearing in all corners.

Ancient trees, an endemic species, are also spreading and growing outward.

The basic ecology has been formed, and the forest topography has begun to expand explosively.

The Great Fierce Jackal, the Scratching Bird, the Great Monster Bird, the Poisonous Demon Bird, the Brute Jaw Dragon, the Male Fire Dragon

All kinds of monsters poured in, and started a scramble situation.

During this period, Li Ming was extremely tired every day, but his proficiency in the control of fog balls [Rain] and [Clouds] has also been greatly improved.

At noon, the sky is clear, and sparse clouds drift high in the sky.

A dark cloud stands out in particular.

Poof~

Restless rodents flapping their wings.

Li Ming in the dark clouds immediately sensed it.

"It should be that Ming Bolong and Baa Ba are fighting again, a good opportunity."

A strong wind swelled, and dark clouds drifted forward in mid-air.

During the period of expanding the forest terrain, the two sides have already clashed several times, and Li Ming has long been accustomed to this.

Since Baa Baa had the upper hand, Li Ming did not make a move.

Every time he felt like he was about to be unable to resist, he fled to the edge of the crater.

It's not clear why, but this strategy is quite useful.

This equilibrium situation is exactly what the human side wants to see, and Li Ming naturally will not take the initiative to break it.

Whew~Whew~

On the leaves of the huge waterlogged corals, the water surges.

Tick~

On the black wing membrane pierced by the thorns, the thick blood of the ancient dragon continued to drip down the water.

The phantom beard, which extends outward from the chin and shines brightly, is no longer lustre.

The surface of the body is dull and gray.

Puff ~ Puff ~

After vomiting a small amount of water from his mouth, the fangs that had been shattered and swallowed during the battle fell into the puddle under his claws.

At the moment, he wanted to inject water into his body, and it was not far from the coast.

But if it can't keep it, it will encounter the dragon that makes it extremely sad.

Waiting for rain is the best option, but for some reason, there has been very little rain in the Coral Plateau lately.

However, thinking of the gloomy sky before, Ming Bolong still looked up at the sky with anticipation.

What can be seen is the last remaining dark cloud, which is drifting away with the wind, flying towards the nearby forest terrain.

The reason why he was moving forward with a weight was because there were other ancient dragons who were calming down for him.

The local ancient dragon is really lacking in virtue.

A vague concept that gradually takes shape within its consciousness.

"The wind is so strong, meow!"

Mi Duoduo in the sky, even if he wears the armor of the wind and rain cat, he must bind himself to Li Ming with insect silk so that he will not be swept out.

"yes, meow!"

The cloth at the end of the other thread indicates recognition.

Li Ming obviously noticed it, but the core combination of the fog ball that pulled the clouds did not change.

It's still Lanlong's [Rain] [Cloud], plus Steel Dragon's [Wind Control].

After inspecting it, he found that the [Wind Ride] fog ball flashed with gray light, and the excitation force was extremely strong.

"It's just stealing the clouds from the land coral plateau, why does it make the steel dragon's will so excited, is it still holding a grudge against the fact that when he landed in the new continent, he was repelled by the Ming Bo dragon."

Li Ming quickly had a guess.

Boom~Boom~

Thunder rolls and torrential rain falls.

Ancient trees and forests are nourished and full of vitality.

Li Ming and the two cats floated to the ground.

After erecting the canopy, the cat lizard dragon that was hunted on the land coral plateau was roasted.

The reason why they don't hunt in the Ancient Tree Forest is because the guild has long issued a ban on hunting in advance.

All in order to make this regional ecology operate and expand faster.

Li Ming, who was well-fed, leaned against the big tree and looked at the map that was updated almost every day.

"The lack of a large ant mound wasteland between the two places shouldn't be a big problem."

The more ecological species in the area outside the mountain walled city, the better.

Because every time there is more, it can form a natural barrier against many monsters.

But the terrain environment of the Great Ant Mound Wasteland can probably only be formed naturally, and the harsh environment of the desert is not friendly to humans.

Half a month later, bilateral expansion finally encountered.

Colourful terrestrial corals are bordered by verdant vegetation, stretching and touching and embedding into each other.

In the end, no one can influence the cannibalization of the other, and the ecological expansion in this direction is stopped.

At this point, a buffer zone that takes into account both hunting and regional barriers has finally taken shape.

Li Ming felt that it was time to take a good rest.

One person, two cats, landed in the rising stronghold that is expanding.

The huge branches of the ancient trees have completely covered the roof of the house, and the dense leaves completely block the sunlight.

Under the shade of the trees, hunters are planting railings where the pterosaurs can rest in the earth.

Being taken away from the flight by the Traveling Pterodactyl runs the risk of being hijacked by monsters in the air.

However, this way of traveling in the wilderness, the mobility is too high.

The guild then conducted an in-depth study and published some rules to keep in mind when flying.

Came to the counter and read the information that Sophia had gathered.

Confirming that there was nothing abnormal except for the emerging leyline nodes and the gathering of a large number of monsters, Li Ming felt a little relieved.

The appearance of a large number of monsters in the past is indeed a new challenge.

But compared to the situation of the ancient dragon secession, it is much better.

The monsters that occupy the leyline nodes at the same time will not be generously shared with other monsters.

The frequent competition between powerful individuals will also benefit the human side in disguise.

It's like the former abandoned shrine area, where the overlords fight for each other around Prison Springs Township all day long.

For the Fari Fortress, there is no interest at all.

It wasn't until Lan Long rushed to drive the monsters away that the disaster was triggered.

"The situation has finally stabilized."

"Yes, and I'll tell you the good news, this may become the stronghold of the guild's field branch."

Sophia handed over a glass of beer and whispered.

"Yes, when the hunting is released, the hunters will be able to stay in the wild."

"Recently, I've seen a lot of hunters from other villages stationed in the stronghold, waiting for the ban to be lifted, and I feel like everything is going for the better."

Sophia said with emotion.

If the villages and towns themselves fail to get out of the crisis, it is naturally impossible for the hunters stationed in the village to go out to hunt, collect materials, and build the equipment they want.

Since the complete fall of Dondoruma, humanity has also fallen to the bottom.

However, with the outstanding performance of the ruthless squad, he is now out of a desperate situation.

"I hope that this hard-won balance will not be easily broken."

After Li Ming finished speaking, he raised his glass and drank freely.

A week later, the ban on hunting in the ancient tree jungle was lifted.

It's a pity that there are still relatively few hunting contracts.

Most of them are tasks such as maintaining transportation routes, escorting researchers, and conducting research in the forest.

But the Hunter Squad, which has a slightly higher star, is not discouraged.

Because of the hunting contracts issued in the Land Coral Plateau during the same period, down to the cat lizard, the pterodactyl, up to the wind drifting dragon, and the miserable clawed dragon have all been included.

It's just that the frequent occurrence of ancient dragons, coupled with the rapid evolution of ecology, makes the area not very well understood.

Therefore, there is a strong uncertainty and danger when hunting.

However, in response, the hunting reward has increased, and the guild has made concessions on the percentage of material shares.

As a result, the enthusiasm of the hunter team was unprecedentedly high.

The hunter squad travels to hunt, bring back materials, clear the way, and resolve the crisis.

The villages and towns that have been built are thriving, building armor and weapons, increasing logistics investment, and giving more comprehensive support to the hunter squad.

Once this virtuous circle of complementarity is properly opened, it is the beginning of the prosperity of villages and towns.

Headquarters of the Mountain Fortress Guild.

Li Ming pondered for a long time, and chose a photo called "Fly, Floating Dragon!" Contract.

In addition to wanting to get the inhaling aerosol ball, he also wants to investigate the situation over there, and if he can, it's best to meet the baa below.

Take a look at the other party's recent situation.

As for the two teammates, there are no hunting plans in the near future.

Ni Shuang participated in the research of the two monsters restarted by the Dragon Calendar Academy, and visited and investigated with researchers in various places.

Chu Ying accepted the guild's invitation and led three five-star hunters to deal with some tricky emergency contracts.

The rapid expansion of the ancient forest has brought many benefits.

But it was only a devastating blow to the maintenance of the slide railway.

The railroad was either blocked by the roots of ancient trees that stretched and grew, or the trunks of trees that broke through the soil were overturned.

Then there is a fierce jackal blocking the road, trying to shake the front of the car with his body.

It is not uncommon for the carrying line to be interrupted several times a day.

Li Ming went all the way intermittently, and arrived at the gate of the rising stronghold at noon, and decided to change to other means of transportation.

On the railings in rows at the door, a rowing pterosaur immediately took off and jumped to Li Ming's side.

This pterosaur, named Xiaofei, was domesticated by Li Ming.

The reason is very simple, being dragged by the other party is easy and comfortable.

So as long as it's not too anxious, he'll take it with him recently.

But the travel of the slide car has wasted a long time, Li Ming decided to take a relaxing and comfortable journey, and save it for the return to enjoy.

So he picked up Xiaofei, the strong wind around him surged, and he flew into the sky at high speed.

The other pterosaurs on the railing, you look at me, I look at Ling, I always feel that something is not right.

A thin yellow mist rises slowly on the leaves of a waterlogged coral in the outer area.

Xiao Fei, whose wings were a little stiff, was pressed on the railing by Li Ming.

Make sure it's balanced and won't fall before letting go.

This is the camp set up by Li Mingmi Duoduo when he first visited.

The cats of the emergency cat truck have been living here for some time.

Relying on Li Ming's self-produced stink bombs, he has never been disturbed by monsters.

There are some hunter squads that will pass by, and say that the smell of the stink bomb is good.

If a team encounters difficulties, the cats will also provide all kinds of assistance.

After glancing at the ecological information collected by the cat, and finding that there was no abnormal movement in the surroundings, Li Ming changed his equipment and continued on the road with Mi Duoduo.

The balance was hard to build, and he didn't want to break it.

But Ming Bolong looked up at the sky all day long, studying the whereabouts of the clouds, and looked a little stunned.

Li Ming didn't want to stimulate the other party, so he loaded the pure muscle system fog ball with the weakest external sensition.

The armor and weapons are all made of the original silver dragon.

In this way, with the closed nature of the [Innocent Carapace], the external induction will be further blocked.

With the help of the large flying insect jump point maintained by Aibo, it can rush at high speed in an area with a large difference in terrain.

At the same time, he did not forget to hunt a few cat lizards and dragons, leaving them for Aibo as supplies along the way.

[Fly, Floating Dragon!] ] is similar to the location provided by Aibo.

The client is Ryuryūin.

The content is to obtain the skin of the floating dragon for the research of a new airship airbag.

This kind of research can only be restarted when the overall situation of mankind improves.

The Heavenly Comet Dragon focuses on the earth's leylines and no longer crosses the continent at high frequencies, which should also play a certain role in boosting.

Li Ming is naturally supportive, after all, the development of science and technology is also one of the important means to fight monsters.

In the future, the Dark Red Dragon, whose will is "destruction", if it really goes berserk, he is not confident enough to be able to turn the tide alone.

In the evening, a man and a cat rushed to the target location.

There are cherry blossom pink coral trees, which look especially beautiful and dreamy.

"Since there are no specific goals or qualifications, it means that you can just hunt one."

Li Ming reconfirmed the contract and rolled it up and put it away.

Sneer~

Midodo was on the side, already sharpening the knife he used to peel off.

Dig deeper into the area for a moment.

Whew~Whew~

A cold wind surging in the air was noticed by Li Ming.

Looking up, the wind drifting dragon with wings shaped like butterfly wings is swooping down from a high altitude with a cold current.

"Are you hunting for a pterodactyl? It stands to reason that you don't have to make that much effort. ”

Li Ming raised the telescope and tracked the trajectory to observe.

I saw a spherical monster that was boosted by exhalation and fled quickly.

The monster's coat is white, like a pom-pom.

The two wings on the side of the body are pink and cute.

The exhalation boost is strong, but at the same time, the spherical body is rapidly drying up.

Well, the other party is about to touch the ground, and he can barely get rid of the high-altitude attack of the Wind Drifting Dragon.

"Thank you, Drifter."

Li Ming was still thinking about how to track it.

Unexpectedly, under the pursuit of the Wind Drifting Dragon, he directly witnessed the location of the Floating Dragon.

Rushing to the front, the two dragons are facing each other.

Due to being in the middle of the gap between the two dragons, Li Ming had a feeling of standing in the referee's seat.

Remove the ornate carved silver axe, sword, and shield.

The two dragons were still staring at each other vigilantly, and they didn't care too much about Li Ming's existence.

Didn't you notice it, what a strong breath sealing ability.

Li Ming finished admiring.

The floating dragon began to inhale violently, and its body swelled into a ball.

Although the Wind Drifter is not a Frost Wing Wind Drifter, it has no metallic luster on the skin, and it does not look like a battle-hardened individual.

But for monsters that are obviously weaker than themselves, they only lower their heads and lower them slightly, obviously with obvious self-confidence.

If you are a hunter with similar combat power, you will have to wait until the two sides decide the winner before attacking, but Li Ming feels that there is not much need.

Oh! Oh!

"Whew!"

Three roars rang out one after another, and the two dragons sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly turned to observe.

The floating dragon is swollen and fluttering, and the air cannon is ready to be formed.

In the face of the attacking Li Ming, he did not flinch.

Rumble!

A spherical air mass is coming.

Li Ming sensed for a moment, and the shield that was supposed to be in front of him suddenly retreated.

Whew!

The globular air mass was smashed by a sword vertically.
