"You said that there is a giant leader-level salamander monster living in the nearby river. When we sent the scout mages to investigate, we did not find such a salamander monster. Could it be that it came here to look for food..."

Jiang Yi listened to Bai Yeyu's detailed explanation of everything from when he witnessed the one-eyed lizard encircling the gray-scale anaconda to when the giant salamander suddenly appeared and devoured those warrior-level lizards.

, looking a little solemn.

"I don't think it is just hunting in the river. Salamanders are not monsters that like to travel long distances. Most of them live in a corner. Only hunger can prompt them to leave their nests for a short time. But I guess its nest is far away from us.

The station is not too far away..."

Bai Yeyu carefully flipped through a thick book in his hand, which contained precious data exchanged with blood by some of his fellow military mages, including sketches of demons and even clear photos.

Salamanders are aquatic monsters. Because they move slowly and have poor eyesight, most salamanders are wait-and-see hunters, waiting for their prey to enter their territory before hunting.

"The salamander I encountered is similar to this white devil salamander, but it moves much faster and its skin is black. And I think it should have good eyesight. It locked onto the single-eyed one without any hesitation.

The armored lizard may be because of its dragon bloodline..."

Bai Yeyu flipped through this book that he was almost familiar with, but he only found the White Demon Salamander that was somewhat similar. He pointed at the Salamander Demon that looked as white as snow and whispered.

The White Demon Salamander is only a war general and does not have dragon blood. It is one of the few war general monsters in Dongting Lake that does not even have dragon blood. However, because they live in groups, the level of danger is also very high.

If there is a behemoth like the White Demon Giant Salamander that can compete with the pseudo-dragon, it can even hunt and cannibalize some of the weaker leader-level pseudo-dragons.

"Is it an unrecorded demon? If it is an unknown demon, it would be a big discovery for us. A leader-level salamander with dragon bloodline is not something we can encounter casually..."

Jiang Yi immediately became interested. Although a salamander demon that looked like a pseudo-dragon and was also the leader lurking in the river was not easy to deal with, this rare material could not be missed.

What's more, although it is in the river, most salamanders are amphibious, so there is no guarantee that it will not come to the shore to look for food. If this big guy who can be called a close neighbor is not taken seriously, it will also be a potential threat to their mission.

threats.

"The last time it was just a rough survey, it was basically difficult to estimate the troublesome demons in the water. This time we actually saw a powerful salamander demon. A commander-level one can occupy a lot of territory. Get rid of it. We will

Operations in the eastern part of the valley will not encounter major obstacles in a short time..."

Jiang Yi looked at the map sketched by the military mage scouts to collect intelligence. There were conspicuous marks on the mountains, rivers and areas where some monsters were active. The salamander monster Bai Yeyu discovered was in an area close to swamps and rivers. It looked like it was

A local snake.

"After all, not many of us are capable of dealing with commander-level monsters. If there are commander-level threats, we must deal with them as soon as possible, otherwise the mid-level military mages and hunters are likely to be attacked and lose their lives..."

Jiang Yi's fingers tapped on the red dot he had just marked, his tone cold.

Commander-level demons, they have only dealt with blood corpse vines and pseudo-terrible demons since they set foot in Dongting Lake. When it comes to dragons, facing the lizard-feathered dragon leader, just running away does not count as a fight. The dragons that really need to be determined to get rid of, this

That's the first one.

"It is self-evident how important the data of a salamander demon that is likely to be flowing with dragon blood is to our mission. This leader of a salamander demon that is likely to belong to an unknown species, we are bound to get it!!!"

Jiang Yi said it categorically. Whether it was to eliminate hidden dangers or to provide valuable data for the military region's research, they must kill this salamander demon.

"Now we have a few questions. Where is the lair of that salamander? Will it leave the river? How can we force it out of the water? Although salamanders may not always be as mature as the white devil salamander.

It forms a group, but if it has other companions..."

Xu Huang and Nie Hao were also sitting nearby. He thought carefully and analyzed cautiously.

With military commanders like Jiang Yi and senior Nie Hao, who can kill commander-level high-level mages independently, it is not difficult to kill a salamander demon.

But if the salamander demon couldn't hide, it would be difficult for him and his group to find a demon active in the river.

The rivers of Dongting Lake extend in all directions, and there are many underground rivers and caves at the bottom of the river that are difficult to detect. If there are no clues, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"It's true. Monsters on land can also rely on their residual smell, movement traces and even the freshness of their excrement to deduce general data. But in the water, except for the traces it leaves on the shore, as long as it enters the water, it will

The trace is hard to find..."

Nie Hao has also had many dealings with monsters in the water. After all, Dongting Lake has no shortage of amphibious monsters, represented by mire creatures like the giant lizard-skull monster.

But this does not mean that he has much confidence in searching for the salamander monster. Most hunters will avoid getting close to swamps and rivers to prevent being attacked by giant monsters in the water. Correspondingly, most of them have no experience in water fighting.

"If you are searching for the Salamander Demon, I can help to some extent..."

A middle-aged hunter who looked a little fat suddenly stepped in and said to himself.

"Old Xu, that is a battle against the commander-level. What are you doing to join in the fun? We middle-level mages have no power to parry in front of the commander-level. We can only be used as a dragnet..."

Hu Yu said angrily when he saw Xu Chu running over to Jiang Yi Juntong and the others while he was not paying attention.

That was a real leader. All of them, senior hunters, were not enough to crush the Salamander Demon. Is that guy Lao Xu really big-hearted or lacking in strength?

"You said you have a way, is that true?"

After taking a closer look at this inconspicuous hunter, he looked confident, but Jiang Yi still said a little doubtfully.

None of his summoned creatures are good at water fighting, and neither of his two contracted beasts are good at fighting giant beasts in the water. It is really difficult to track down the salamander demon that is probably wandering in the river.

"I am also a summoning mage, and among my summoned creatures is the shark, which is relatively rare in the summoning plane. What it is best at is searching for targets based on the remaining scent. Even if it encounters that salamander demon, its speed is even faster than that of many others.

Even the commander-level sea monster can escape smoothly..."

Xu Chu was obviously very confident in his summoned creature, patting his chest in assurance.

"The shark is a sea monster. It is three times stronger in water than a land monster. Moreover, the shark's intelligence is not low. He can understand many instructions by heart. If the shark's keen sense of smell is used, there is indeed hope to find it.

That salamander demon..."

Although Jiang Yi has been stationed in Dongting Lake for a long time as the military commander of the Biyi Military Region, he has also heard about the sea monsters that are a headache in coastal cities. Among them, the sharks are a vicious and difficult enemy.

As long as a trace of the smell of blood floats in the sea, the sharks from several kilometers away can swarm in in a very short time, looking for injured prey to gradually consume their physical strength, and finally cannibalize the dying prey like crazy.

The sharks have a sense of smell that is as good as that of sharks. Most of them are between the warrior level and the commander level. They are also cunning hunters in groups.

One of their favorite foods is humans, especially mages who are rich in nutrients or tender and delicious children. They take out the fresh internal organs and swallow them directly into their stomachs, drinking blood to their heart's content.

"Although the shark is a dangerous demon, if it can be controlled by a summoning mage, it is an extremely rare combat power. With the shark's sense of smell, it may be possible to directly capture its location with the residual smell of the salamander!!!"

Jiang Yi stood up excitedly, walked over and patted Xu Chu's shoulder. Seeing the middle-aged hunter's eyes shining brightly, he couldn't help but say.

"However, Xu Huang, what you are worried about is not unreasonable. We don't know if this salamander demon has other companions. We lack clues and we can't make a conclusion on this. Your name is Xu Chu, right, Lao Xu?

I have to rely on your shark to help..."

Jiang Yi also fully agreed with Xu Huang's caution. Everything must be carefully considered. Especially after encountering the surprise attack of the leader of the Lizard-Feathered Dragon and losing a precious magic bee queen, Jiang Yi had a deeper understanding of this principle.

If they fall into a situation where the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole stalks the cicada, and a troublesome monster pops up after they surround and exterminate the salamander demon, then they may not be so lucky.

The goddess of luck cannot always be with them, and escaping from death once does not mean that they will be in danger every time. Without enough strength, they can only deal with various dangers with caution.

In the final analysis, the strength is still not enough. If it were strong enough, the military commanders of the Biyi Military Region would not have been having trouble sleeping and eating because of the intrusion of the demons of Dongting Lake. They could only grit their teeth in the face of those Sovereign Yalongs but could do nothing.

"The smell of that salamander demon probably hasn't dissipated yet, and it may even be making waves in the river. However, this matter still needs to be considered in the long term. We can't let the salamander demon escape. We must make a final decision..."

Although Jiang Yi hopes to deal with the salamander demon as soon as possible, the hunting of the leader level is not casual. If it escapes by taking advantage of the water, it will even expose the traces of his group.

"This salamander must be led to the shore so that it cannot return to the water. This will not only weaken part of its strength, but also cut off its retreat..."

In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, he and his team must go in the best condition. However, Xu Huang's wounds still need to be nursed back to health, and Ke Ke even suffered hidden injuries because he used his full strength twice in succession, and they all need time to recover.

If they relied on themselves, Nie Hao, Bai Yeyu and Li Man, they would be more than enough to deal with a leader.

But in order to prevent the salamander from having secret tricks or even having unshown companions, it would be most appropriate to wait for everyone to recover before dealing with the salamander.

"The Salamander Demon is a leader with extremely terrifying self-healing power, and it is probably a pseudo-dragon flowing with dragon blood. The superposition of its regeneration ability and the dragon's magic resistance cannot be measured by ordinary leaders...

…”

Although Xu Huang has never seen the true appearance of a salamander demon with his own eyes, he has heard about the terrifying self-healing power of this kind of demon. It is incredible that severed limbs can be regenerated, and some powerful ones can even repair incomplete heads.

But in the world of magic, the Parthenon goddesses of all generations have the power to resurrect the dead, and even in a time town somewhere in the world, they have the strange power to turn back time.

Nothing is impossible.

"A giant salamander beast that looks like a pseudo-dragon. Its essence and blood are also very rare. If Qing absorbs it, will it enhance its self-healing power? Moreover, there is still a lot of energy left in the terrifying demon crystal marrow in Qing's body.

Let it fight with that salamander demon, and it can also digest the accumulated energy. In Dongting Lake, it has not really let go of its hands and feet to fight..."

Xu Qing has been clamoring for a fight with the pseudo-dragons in Dongting Lake, but the commander-level ones he encountered were a Blood Corpse Vine, and the other was an advanced-stage pseudo-horror demon. Neither of them were dragons, and they were the most annoying ones.

It's a symbiote, and Xu Qing can't defeat it at all.

As for the leader of the lizard-feathered dragon, although he is a real dragon, he is still at the monarch level. Xu Qing was pushed to the ground and rubbed in a flattering manner. He has never met anyone who is truly on par with him.

"Old man, I can't fight that salamander demon you're talking about, but let me be the main force for once. The guys I encounter are all monsters. I have never been able to fight a hearty battle even though I was promoted to commander..."

Xu Qing used the shared consciousness between himself and Xu Huang to clearly hear the conversation between Jiang Yi and others. For Xu Qing, who had been saying that his bones were about to get rusty, this was an opportunity not to be missed.

After all, he was a high-spirited and handsome dragon with a bright future, but when he arrived at Dongting Lake, he repeatedly ran into obstacles. His original ambition was almost wiped out after encountering the Sovereign Yalong, which almost scared him to the point of peeing.

As a dragon with great ambitions, it really can't swallow this breath. Damn it, when it reaches the monarch level, it must be more powerful and more powerful than the leader of the lizard-feathered dragon, so that it can know what true domineering spirit is.

(ge) side (man) leak (man).

A soldier who doesn’t want to be a general is not a good soldier, a dragon who doesn’t want to be a proud dragon, a dragon who doesn’t want to be exposed to the sun and the sky, is not a serious dragon!!!

"...When I got back, I deleted all the Internet articles it had stored in it. I was too poisoned and refused to take medicine. I am hopeless..."

Xu Huang knew all about Xu Qing's colorful intestines, and he felt his stomach twitch violently. This brat, let him read less of the bloody routines, he is completely obsessed.

Long Aotian, that kind of standard big stallion, just think about it. He has seen so many male protagonists in harem dramas, and he should know that one of them is in heaven and the other is in Germany.

As for the romantic male protagonists in novels who have beauties all over the world, I hope their health will not be too bad, otherwise the kidney treasure will not be able to save them.

It seemed that Xu Huang himself had been brought in by Xu Qing, and he couldn't help but criticize. He inexplicably recalled the tragic experience of being cheated out of a lot of money in order to pursue a certain novel when he was still using Lugia in elementary school in his previous life.

At that time, he turned his grief and anger into appetite and ate a lot of potatoes to resolve his long-lasting resentment towards the old thief. As a result, he now has a shadow on potatoes.

"It seems that I have been led astray...Am I too poisoned~~~"

Xu Huang reacted and felt a little ashamed. It was all his fault that Xu Qing was a naughty kid. He was unknowingly affected. He secretly swore that he would clear out all the inventories of Xu Qing when he went back!!

At the same time, Xu Qing, who was still secretly rejoicing that he might be able to show off his talents, suddenly sneezed. Could it be that someone was saying that he looked handsome? he couldn't help but think.

"When I go back, I must catch up on the updates that I missed during this period. The few potential stocks I have fattened up are ready to be sold. I want to read them all in one sitting!!"

Xu Qing, who was still looking forward to it, had no idea that what he and Xu Huang were thinking were completely opposite extremes.

If he knew it, he would have to cry, make trouble, and hang himself with Xu Huang. Although with Xu Qing's physique, it would be more realistic for the rope and the beam to break.

(The last few paragraphs of this chapter are my complaints. When I was in elementary school, I was reluctant to spend all my money on the game to chase a certain thief. It feels like a long time since I started talking about it. Now I’m chasing the Lord of Mysteries.
