"Well, that's right, Sick, how many crystal stone headquarters are there like this?"
"That's all you have in your hand, nya."
"Oh, Huihui is hopeless again."
Li Fan looked at the crystal and sighed.
According to the areas that have been explored in the Monster Hunting World, apart from the current continent, there is also a new continent full of unknowns in the distant overseas.
Li Fan has only visited in the game.
There, passing through the Earth Corridor, there is an area called the Dragon Crystal Land.
The energy crystals in your hands are regarded as precious materials. They are just like stones there, and there are even so many that they condense into mountains and hills.
If we speculate based on the size difference between the game and reality, the actual reserves may be even more outrageous.
And in terms of energy density, the crystalline dragon crystal is obviously much higher than the Hexingite which is doped with a large number of minerals.
It's just that the energy properties are a bit different.
One with dissipated energy is blue and the other with dissipated energy is red. You can tell the difference just by looking at it.
Li Fan thought of a way to save Huihui, which was to take her to the Dragon Crystal Land in the New World.
In this way, Huihui's energy acquisition problem will not only be solved, but it may also produce adaptive mutations.
But as far as the current conditions are concerned, we can only say that the idea is right, but it is simply not feasible to implement it.
Just this little bit, enough for who, Huihui saw it and thought I, Li Fan, was stingy.
Li Fan reluctantly put the dragon crystal back in its place.
To describe his current mood in three words, he is unwilling. In five words, he is very unwilling.
If you miss this Huihui, it seems that there is only one special individual mysterious red light sky comet dragon left.
But that one had been affected by dragon energy for a long time and was already in a semi-mad state, constantly launching attacks on the ground.
Wait a minute, without the ecological environment support of Yiqunling Tongtian Tower, where did that Sky Comet Dragon come from?
Through this period of contact with the world of monster hunting, when Li Fan thought of a monster, the first thing he thought about was no longer its combat power or characteristics, but the ecological environment that could sustain its life.
But this explanation makes no sense. Dewen's combat deployment is obviously not a big problem.
"Researcher Li Fan, the dragon-killing fruit breeding you want."
At this time, the female researcher came over and handed a bag to Li Fan.
“Thank you very much”
Looking at the rough-skinned dragon-killing fruit in the bag, an idea flashed through my mind.
If Huihui fails to survive the joint hunting, she will die in Yiqun Ridge.
If it survives, how can it continue to survive?
Dragon attribute energy is also found in ancient dragons.
Li Fan suddenly felt shuddering, but thinking this way, the appearance of the special individual mysterious Red Sky Comet Dragon was explained.
These two Celestial Comet Dragons are actually the same one.
The severe damage caused by the joint hunting and the depletion of the Hexing stone veins forced Huihui to survive in another way.
That is to hunt other ancient dragons as a source of energy.
No wonder the mysterious Red Light Sky Comet Dragon Club in the game has more moves and feels more ferocious. It turns out that Huihui at this time has accumulated a wealth of combat experience.
In this form of the Celestial Comet Dragon, I am afraid that no hunter can fight it head-on.
Li Fan feels that the world of monster hunting will take two completely different directions due to Hui Hui's survival.
Thinking that the ice-type bullets and effective range were inconsistent with the actual test, Li Fan returned to the test bed and started questioning Sigg.
"I don't know the effective range of ice-type bullets, meow."
When Sigg heard this, his eyes squinted towards the laboratory ceiling.
"There's nothing up here."
Li Fan looked up and saw nothing unusual.
Sick simply turned his head to the other side.
Li Fan knew that Elumao was not good at lying and did not dare to face him. He must have known some inside information, but he just didn't want to mention it.
"I need this crystal for my research, can I get it?"
Li Fan picked up the dragon crystal again.
"No, meow, this is the highest level experimental material, unless approved by the dean or the head and deputy head of the research team."
Thicke responded.
"Aren't you the deputy captain?"
"You're right, meow, but this crystal is too precious, unless you can explain its use."
Li Fan thought about it for a long time, but couldn't come up with a reasonable use.
After all, even Longliyuan has not been able to understand this thing.
"Uh, is the explosive device stuck at that step?"
Li Fan asked.
"I'm stuck in the selection of adhesive materials. If Yanwanglong's dust doesn't have suitable adhesive materials, it will be easily blown away by the airflow. If it doesn't aggregate and detonate, its power will be very limited."
Sick said helplessly.
"How about Zhanlong's liquid deflagration mineral? Not only does it have strong viscosity and adhesion, but it will also explode on its own once the temperature drops, eliminating the need for a detonation mechanism."
Di Lu's eyes lit up, but he quickly sighed and said: "Your idea is great, but it requires continuous heating and is too unstable. At least it should be a substance that can be extracted as a material."
"Then use the super-heavy keel oil of Styracosaurus. I heard that after East Doruma was attacked, there were a lot of unexploded oil stains left on the city wall. That stuff is black and sticky, and its properties should be much more stable than liquid deflagration minerals.
"
"Super heavy keel oil! Thank you so much, nya! Are you a material scholar?"
Thicke shouted.
"That's right. We are currently researching crystal materials, but the lack of new materials bothers me a little."
Li Fan said and wiped the dragon crystal with his sleeve.
Sike looked at Li Fan and then at the crystal stone.
The two cat paws pinched uncomfortably, and finally closed their eyes tightly and said: "Then take it and study it, material scholar Li Fan!"
"Thank you so much, Deputy Leader Sike. If there are any research results in the future, I will mention them in the research report."
"You're welcome, where's the cat?"
When Sigg opened his eyes, he only saw the laboratory door half open.
Li Fan returned to the Flame, entered the cabin and wrote a battle plan, and did not open the door until dinner and walked out.
"You seem excited?"
At the dining table, Eudora looked at Li Fan who was cooking quickly, and couldn't help but feel curious.
"Yes, I think Huihui may be captured, but the first step is to participate in the battle on the top of the tower."
"This means that the team is going to the top of the Babel Tower to have a head-on decisive battle with the Sky Comet Dragon!"
"That's right, but it's not a team."
Li Fan responded.
Eudora's eyes darkened and asked, "Are you afraid that I will hold you back?"
"There are a few people in this continent who won't be held back. I just don't want the team members to be in danger."
Li Fan explained.
"I understand, it means that Dilu and I are not included in your plan at all."
Eudora sighed.
"Well, I do, meow! Li Fan also sent me a specific training plan."
Dilu raised the cat's paw and said.
"ah!!!"
Eudora let out a scream and slammed her hands on the table.
"Calm Dilu is relatively small and will not cause the Sky Comet Dragon to attack. Even if he goes there, it will be safer."
Li Fan explained.
"No matter! I'm going anyway."
"Aren't you afraid that something unexpected will happen before you even see the Steel Dragon?"
Li Fan advised.
Eudora said seriously: "Fighting the ancient dragon is an excellent opportunity for hunters to test themselves! If I don't even have the chance to feel the difference, even if I really face the steel dragon, all I can do is watch.
"
Judging the results based on feelings, Li Fan felt that Eudora really hadn't changed at all.
"Okay, then I will sign up as a team tomorrow."
"You agree so easily?"
Eudora asked in surprise.
"Actually, I have already planned the coordinated combat plan between you and Zhanzhan. It was only for safety reasons that I had no choice but to make improvements."
"Does that mean I'm actually very important?"
Eudora smiled.
"Yes, it's very important. Go to bed early after dinner. There are still a lot of preparations to be done tomorrow."
Li Fan confirmed.
Early the next morning, the hall of Longliyuan headquarters.
At the combat participation registration counter on the top of Babel Tower, Todd was patiently explaining to the young hunter in front of him.
"Intermediate hunters cannot participate in the registration. Sorry, if you really want to participate in the joint hunting of the Sky Comet Dragon, you can go to the ground combat team next to it and try to register."
"Captain Todd, I am the top hunter known as King Bernard! I am exactly the person you want to recruit. As long as you send me to the Tower of Babel, I will definitely be able to turn the tide and kill the Sky Comet Dragon on the spot."
The young male hunter said with great confidence.
"But in your recent hunting experience, you have taken on six missions to defeat the Snow Lion King, but all of them ended in failure."
Todd said helplessly.
"Those little snow lions are so disgusting."
The young man explained.
"When I was doing ecological research in the snow mountains, I was also attacked by a small snow lion. I can understand your feelings, but according to the standards given by the Longli Academy, it is really impossible to complete the registration."
"All right."
The young man returned the registration information with disappointment, turned around and left.
"The next hunter Li Fan?"
When he submitted the Searing Carapace, it was under Todd's recommendation that Li Fan entered the Longli Academy.
"Captain Todd, why did you come to the counter to receive us?"
Li Fan asked curiously.
"Because the target of recruitment is a top hunter, Longli Academy must respect him accordingly, so the dean sent me to receive him."
Todd explained.
"I see, I'm here to sign up."
After Li Fan finished speaking, Eudora Dilu waved to Todd and said hello.
Fighting on the top of a tower involves a narrow escape, so Li Fan felt that it was unlikely that anyone other than himself would be allowed to sign up.
"Uh, do you really want to go?"
Todd looked troubled.
"Yes, can you sign up if you are not a senior hunter? I remember it was mentioned at the meeting."
Li Fan asked curiously.
"I admire this courage. Well, there is no need to say more about your qualifications as hunters. You must be qualified enough. Let me talk about the process and remuneration first."
"OK."
Li Fan listened carefully.
"After the registration is completed, the guild representative and the dean will conduct a review. The seven senior hunters who have registered so far have failed to pass the review."
"So strict?"
Eudora said unexpectedly.
"The main problem is the equipment. Generally, advanced hunter equipment can have a 4-star level, which is already very high. However, according to the guild representative and the dean, without a full set of five-star weapons and armor, the defense and attack cannot reach the standard.
, unless the combat effectiveness is extremely outstanding, it will not be considered."
Todd explained.
"Fortunately, the team's equipment is up to standard."
Eudora said happily.
"Another criterion is the hunting experience that has been recorded in the past. This team is perfect, so I personally infer that you are probably the first team to pass the review."
After Todd finished speaking, he picked up a document on the counter and introduced: "In terms of remuneration, no matter what happens, participants can get 300,000z remuneration and a freely chosen five-star armor. These will be
Distributed before the battle and after the battle."
Todd paused and continued: "If the goal of the battle on the top of the Sky Comet Dragon Tower is achieved, the participants of the Dragon Li Yuan who have not died in the battle will be promoted to the chief hunter, and the fallen personnel will be sent to their hometown for burial, and a cemetery will be built with the highest standards for burial.
, the name will be engraved on the Pioneer Stone of Ryukyakuin and the Soul Hunting Monument at the East Doruma Hunter Headquarters."
"Chief hunter? Is he similar to the seven-star hunter of the guild?"
Eudora asked curiously.
"The chief hunter of Ryūliyuan has a higher evaluation."
Todd emphasized.
"I understand, then just sign up."
Li Fan confirmed.
After Todd sighed helplessly, he took out a document and gave it to the team to sign.
"Actually, based on your talents, if you don't rush to participate in the mission and wait a few more years, you will definitely become a very accomplished hunter team."
Even after the signing was completed, Todd still couldn't help but try to persuade him.
I think so too, but if Huihui fails in her hunt and mutates into a glorious comet dragon, everyone will suffer.
Li Fan thought to himself.
In fact, neither the Hunters Guild nor the Ryūliyuan can have such foresight.
Even Li Fan, who has experienced the plot of the game, came to the conclusion through many inferences and combined with the real ecological situation.
"The team also made the decision after considering it for a long time."
Li Fan responded.
"Well, there has been little progress in the recruitment of top hunters. All parties are very anxious. The results of the review will be announced soon."
After Todd finished speaking, he turned the tag off at the reception counter and quickly went to submit it.
The team did not waste time, but went to the headquarters blacksmith workshop and looked through the armor album.
“I feel like there is nothing to replace”
Eudora flipped through it for a long time and put the armor album on the table.
Li Fan and Di Lu, who were reading a book together, enjoyed it with gusto.
"The ceratopsian breastplate is so handsome, meow!"
Dilu pointed to the picture and said.
"It looks very heavy. The ability it stimulates is defensive performance, which is useless to me. And the assimilation effect should not be like hitting your head against the wall."
Li Fan turned the page as he spoke.
"What a beautiful armor, meow!"
"The concubine spider's breastplate stimulating ability increases the ammunition reloading speed."
Li Fan looked at the armor album and began to think.
The concubine spider's tentacles are extremely flexible when weaving silk. It may be the stimulation of this ability that makes the action of loading ammunition with both hands faster.
This ability is only used for reloading, which always feels like a waste.
