Not long after, Kuku and Yeye entered a mountain forest with complex terrain.
Phew~
Ye Ye raised one claw wing to point out a direction.
It seems to indicate that you are on standby while I go to investigate the situation.
Ouch! Gugu!
The two monsters quickly reached a consensus.
Although the trees in the abandoned shrine are not as tall as the ancient forest and can provide perfect shelter every night, the complex terrain with scattered heights and the dark night environment are all favorable factors for hiding one's body.
After Ye Ye flew away, the fan-shaped cochlea unfolded.
After becoming the ancestral black wolf bird, Kuku's fan-shaped cochlea shrank significantly, but its hearing range and anti-interference ability when it was open were more than a little stronger.
As [Wolf Bird Hearing] activated, Kuku noticed a sound of chewing and swallowing approaching.
I originally wanted to take a look, but when I realized that I was on standby and couldn't move around at will, I continued to monitor.
Not long after, a three-star monster Tengumon passed by from above.
Tengumon is a tusked monster with a body similar to that of an ape. It has blue and white fur all over its body and its three-toed tail claws are extremely strong and can support its body in jumping and spinning.
Seeing the entrance of the cave beside the river below, there was a purple creature with its head raised in a daze. Tengumon quickly swallowed the big persimmon in its mouth.
Then he picked out a yellow one from the various large persimmons in his belly band and pinched it in his claws.
Phew! Phew!
The big yellow persimmon hit Kuku's face, and the juice and skin slowly slid down from the giant purple beak.
Woohoo! Woooooh!
While Tengumon screams excitedly, it rests on the ground with its three-toed tail paw, supporting its body and swinging back and forth. At the same time, it flaps its claws and wings and claps its hands.
Wow oh oh
Kuku narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced up slowly.
Thinking of the agreement with Ye Ye, Kuku decided to endure it for a while.
Shaking off the stained persimmons from his giant beak, Kuku turned his head in another direction and continued to raise his neck to listen.
Whoosh! Bang!
Another big yellow persimmon arrives.
But this time, Kuku's spiked tail swung suddenly, beating the persimmon into pieces in mid-air.
Wow!
Kuku roared a warning.
Tengumon didn't take it seriously and took out more large persimmons from its abdominal belt and placed them on Wing Claw's arms, apparently planning to attack continuously.
Seeing this situation, Kuku thought it was time to show his opponent what a black hand was.
Wow! Kuku spread his wings and took off, attacking Tengumon directly.
There was a sudden commotion in the forest, and there was no peace anymore.
Ahead, Ye Ye flashed around among the trees, constantly moving through the trees in a stealthy way that made almost no sound.
A Weasel dragon's lair appears below.
Watching the Scyllus dragon sleeping soundly with a snot-filled nose, an urge to kill it by slitting its throat with a sharp wing blade arose in Ye Ye's heart.
Fortunately, he suppressed the impulse again and again, but when his paws lifted up from the tree and flew away, the branches of the tree rebounded from the pressure, and an abandoned bird's nest was bounced into the air.
Whoosh!
When the bird's nest was about to hit the sleeping Weaselosaurus, Yeye, who was hanging upside down, used his sharp beak to gently pick it up.
Just when Ye Ye was feeling very happy, a noisy cry suddenly came from not far away.
Woohoo! Woohoo!
Realizing that one of the cries clearly came from Kuku, Ye Ye's red round eyes sank.
The Weasel Dragon suddenly woke up when he heard the cry, but before he could get up, he was suddenly startled again when he saw a pair of red round eyes hanging above his head.
Goo
Every night I want to give a warning with a cry, indicating that if you dare to scream, I will kill you.
However, just after half a shout, a crisp sound was heard from above.
Click!
The old crooked-necked tree with hooked claws broke because it could not bear the weight of the night.
Pfft! As Yeye descended vertically, the sharp beak pierced the head of the Weasel.
Ouch! Ouch!
With a pitiful roar, all the weasel dragons in the lair woke up and gathered together in a besieging posture.
Ye Ye quickly got up and realized that the first stealth method had failed, so she decisively chose the second stealth method.
Day and night alternate, and the sun and moon rotate.
Early the next morning, Kuku and Yeye flew back to the Flame.
Kuku brought back the severed tail of a Tengu beast with several scars on its body.
Ye Ye's blue feathers were soaked with a large amount of bright red blood, as if they had been soaked in a pool of blood.
"Did you really go to investigate?"
Li Fan asked unexpectedly.
Gugu! Ouch!
"Okay, what's the result?"
Ouch!
"Tengumon can only run and take advantage of the terrain to hide. It is no match for you. What about you, Ye Ye?"
Cuckoo!
"The monsters here have a low sense of crisis. Not only are they numerous in number, but they are also very rich in species. If there is a resentful tiger dragon living nearby in the near future, it should not behave like this."
After understanding Ye Ye's report, Li Fan thought for a moment and affirmed: "It makes sense. It seems that the information provided by the guild is reliable."
Li Fan took out the map and drew a cross on the marked square.
The Flame was on the move again, preparing to move to the next designated area and continue the search.
This method of searching is indeed not very efficient, but since the guild investigators stationed in the field have not been able to find any trace of Fat Tiger's Angry Horn, all that is left is a simple carpet search.
Soon half a month passed, and Kuku and Yeye's cooperation in the investigation became more and more tacit.
Every time, Kuku basically caused a large-scale commotion to attract attention, and then began to conduct stealth investigation every night.
However, even with such detailed search, I still couldn't get any useful information.
Li Fan looked at the area of the Waste God Community on the deck, with crosses all over the map, and felt a slight headache.
There are only two areas missing right now. One is Feiye Fortress, a city defense area extending from Yanhuo Village.
But the interception capability there is top-notch, and the village defense team is stationed all year round, so it is impossible for the Angry Horn to hide there.
The other area is the mountain forest area near the cliff behind Yanhuo Village.
Since it is adjacent to the sea, there seems to be nothing worth visiting.
Li Fan thought for a moment, and although he knew that the Resentful Tiger Dragon had nothing to do with the sea, he decided to set sail to explore it.
After all, this is the only place in the surrounding area that I haven't searched for yet.
One sunny noon, I searched for the Yanhuo in the air and found no abnormalities, and rappelled down to the cliff behind the village.
Since there is a fishing port on the coast with a lot of people coming and going, Li Fan chose to let the team search for traces by land in order to prevent the monster from appearing and causing panic and unnecessary trouble.
Riding on the roller elevator carrying fresh fish, the team quickly arrived at the mountain forest below the cliff.
In the jungle, Dilu was holding a big book and reading it while walking.
"No wonder the traces of the Resentful Tiger Dragon are difficult to find. When it eats, it even swallows the animal bones!"
After Di Lu finished speaking, she continued to turn the pages.
"Eating a large amount of bones can not only strengthen the body of the Tiger Dragon and promote the production of will-o'-the-wisp dust in the body, but also speed up the growth of the horns on the head of the head."
Li Fan added.
"Have you even done the research on what you like to eat?"
Eudora asked in surprise.
"Yes, if I can really catch Fat Tiger, I will send it to the Dragon Cemetery. The rotten bone pile is its favorite. Of course, before that, we must find it."
Li Fanzhan said.
"Li Fan, what does the triangle on the map mean?"
Eudora asked curiously.
The entire map was covered with crosses, except for an area on the edge of the abandoned shrine, which was marked with a triangle symbol.
"That's the habitat of the Thunder Wolf Dragon tribe. Ye Ye and Kuku accidentally discovered it."
Li Fan explained.
"What's the mark doing there?"
Eudora asked puzzledly.
"That seems to be Brother Lei's former tribe."
"Uh okay."
Eudora was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Brother Lei, who had been active around Kara Village for a long time, was originally from the abandoned shrine near Yanhuo Village.
Magnifying glass, small shovel, collection bottle
Dilu began her specialty of tracking and investigating.
After spending a whole afternoon, I finally found a series of footprints of the Resentful Tiger Dragon.
Following the footprints, the team came to a lush jungle.
As the tracking continued to deepen, Di Lu gradually frowned.
"Something's wrong, meow. There are more and more footprints, and the depth is very different. There may be more than one resentful tiger dragon moving nearby."
Dilu explained the discovery.
After smelling the slightly pungent rancid smell in the air and looking at the darkening sky, Li Fan marked the location and decided to go back to the fishing port to rest for the night.
Late at night, inside the fishing port hotel, Li Fan asked the boss about the situation nearby.
"It's nothing unusual, but it's quite strange. Fishing ports in other places are often attacked. Our area has been peaceful for many years."
The male boss leaning against the counter was chatting.
"Peace? Have there been no monster attacks?"
Li Fan was a little surprised.
"That's right, little brother. At first, everyone was worried that this place was too far from Yanhuo Village and that help would not be able to arrive in time. But after so many years, this place has been recognized as a blessed place."
The boss said with certainty.
Li Fan thought for a moment and took out the map to observe.
The Feiye Fortress extends outward in a fan shape, forming an almost all-round barrier to the outside world.
The fishing port in the rear area has never been attacked, which seems reasonable.
But today's investigation during the day has determined that the resentful tiger dragon can visit here, which means that the fishing port is not within the protection range of Feiye Fortress.
Could it be that Yanhuo Village's blocking ability is too strong and it's just good luck?
When Li Fan arrived at the fishing port, he was surprised that there was no protection at all.
After a long period of trouble, people rely on luck to survive.
"Perhaps it is the ecological environment of the seaside and the isolation of the outside world from the front that result in monsters rarely visiting."
Li Fan gave a guess.
"Actually, there is another way to say it."
"What statement?"
The boss smiled and pointed to the dark sea outside the window.
"An old fisherman who often goes to sea said that there is a dragon palace left by a lost civilization in this sea. When this dragon palace reappears, the world will come to an end, so even monsters do not want to touch this place."
Could this be the ancient city of Dragon Palace?
"Is there any other more detailed description?"
Li Fan asked.
"Gone."
The next day, the weather was sunny and the air was fresh.
The team went to yesterday's calibration site early in the morning to continue the investigation, but the scene shocked everyone.
Trees were broken, rocks were cracked, and countless dense claw marks appeared on the ground.
The putrid smell was very strong, and several purple will-o'-the-wisps that had not yet burned out were scattered everywhere.
Di Lu walked to the purple fire ball and watched. After a while, the flames swaying in the wind suddenly turned pink.
Di Lu turned around and made a flying dive.
Boom! A small amount of purple scale powder exploded into a pink fire ball, detonating with the surrounding ghost fire balls.
However, since there is only a small amount of remnants, it does not pose much of a threat.
"Is this the monster Gu Xing once hunted?"
Looking at the hell-like scene, Eudora sighed.
"This battlefield looks like it was left behind when two resentful tiger dragons fought."
Li Fan gave a guess.
"That's right, meow, but why are the two resentful tiger dragons fighting?"
Dilu couldn't understand.
According to what we have learned about its habits, the Resentful Tiger Dragon will not start a fight to the death as soon as it encounters it, like the Zhanlong.
"Let's do some research first, and be careful of the will-o'-the-wisps that haven't fully exploded yet."
After Li Fan finished speaking, he pulled out his dragon-slaying sword and started detonating the unexploded will-o'-the-wisps.
Di Lu followed behind and began to investigate and collect traces.
Twenty minutes passed and the preliminary investigation of the scene was completed.
"There are also female resentful tiger dragons at the scene, at least three?"
Li Fan was also surprised by Di Lu's investigation results.
"Yes meow."
As Di Lu said, she took out the thick book from her backpack, opened one page and showed it to Li Fan.
"Female Tiger Dragons weigh less than males, so their footprints are slightly smaller and lighter. At the same time, there are no traces of battles near the areas where these footprints are concentrated. This is in line with the characteristics of females being less involved in battles."
Dilu pointed at the page with her cat claws and introduced it.
"But what's the motive?"
Li Fan really couldn't understand what there was to fight between resentful tigers and dragons.
Instead of occupying the abundant ecological environment of the abandoned shrine, I went to the barren seaside mountain forest to play solo, and I also took three females with me.
Fighting for a spouse?
The male resentful tiger dragon can have a harem at will, except
"I understand, the Angry Horn we are looking for is probably one of them."
Li Fan gave a guess.
"Ah? But the area of the Waste God Community is obviously not occupied by the Resentful Tiger Dragon, meow?"
Dilu felt incredible.
The motive for the fight between the resentful tigers and dragons may only be the competition for territory, but there is nothing to win in the seaside mountains and forests.
"I think of three possibilities, the most likely of which is that the other person simply doesn't like it."
Li Fan explained.
"Can this also be a reason to fight?"
Eudora was puzzled.
"This is what it looks like so far. The Angry Horn saw the other party strutting through the city with many spouses, and thought of the unfortunate experience of his damaged helmet horn, so he focused on the other party. The two sides continued to fight, all the way to the seaside mountains and forests."
Li Fan explained.
"Well, it seems quite reasonable. What about the second one?"
"This possibility is relatively small. The Grudge Horn has sensed that the opponent's body is made of purple jade and wants to devour it to mutate. However, according to the secret files of Ryūliyuan, generally only super strong or older individuals will have jade.
, if it really reaches that level, Angry Horn should not be his opponent."
Li Fan informed.
"What about the third type?"
"The third possibility is even less likely. The Night Parade of Hundred Dragons is coming, and the Angry Horn will be exclusive."
