"I haven't seen you for a while, and I feel more and more like a chief hunter."
Dewen patted Li Fan on the shoulder.
"It's okay. What have you been busy with recently?"
"I accepted the invitation from the guild to help with some ecological surveys about ancient dragons. I have been traveling around various places recently. This time I came to East Doruma to submit the survey report, and then I will rush to the ancient city of Dragon Palace in the area of the Waste God Community."
Dewen introduced.
"Hasn't the body of the Wind God Dragon and the Thunder God Dragon been destroyed?"
Li Fan asked curiously.
Dewen came closer and lowered his voice and said: "Since the battle of the Sky Comet Dragon, abnormal situations have been occurring frequently. This time, two ancient dragons appeared to participate in the Hundred Dragons Night Walk. Both Longliyuan and the Guild felt that there was some kind of power behind the scenes. guide the direction, so a joint investigation was launched."
"Is that so? Are there any suspects?"
Li Fan asked tentatively.
"It has not been pointed to any organization yet, but the suspicion of the Dragon Worship Cult is high. By the way, the chief hunter badge is in East Doruma. It is best to put it away temporarily, otherwise it will easily attract the attention of the Dragon Worship Cult. They are interested in Dragon Calendar." There is strong hostility in the hospital.”
Dewen explained.
"Okay, I'll pay attention."
"Well, I won't bother you anymore."
Watching De Wen, who was wearing a light blue windbreaker, gradually disappearing on the platform, Li Fan curiously asked Eudora: "What does the Dragon Worship Cult do?"
The person who secretly stepped in to guide me was probably myself.
But Li Fan had never heard of the Dragon Worship Cult in the game.
"They are all very strange people. They regard powerful monsters as gods and firmly believe that humans can never defeat them. All contact, observation, and investigation are provocations to the majesty of the gods, and may lead to world-destroying disasters at any time. If humanity wants to continue, it must serve the gods and act according to their will."
Eudora explained.
"Does anyone believe this?"
Li Fan asked puzzledly.
"At least there are many supporters of the Dragon Worship Cult in Dongdoruma, and according to past records, the Dragon Worship Cult did issue accurate prophecies before several crises came."
Hunters’ understanding of ecology comes from research reports, but it does not mean that other people see the world this way.
The ancient dragon controls the wind, controls the rain, controls the celestial phenomena, triggers worship and establishes religions, which is a normal phenomenon, but it is a bit incomprehensible to predict the coming crisis.
After all, the guild has deployed so many field investigators, and the Longli Academy research team has traveled all over dangerous areas, so there is still a long lag in early warning of danger.
It’s unlikely that there really is a legendary ancient dragon that transformed into a human being.
And judging from the information currently available, it makes no sense at all for the ancient dragon to transform into a human being.
Thinking of this, I still have no idea about the prophecy of the Dragon Worship Cult.
But Li Fan roughly understood why the Dragon Worship Sect was hostile to Longliyuan.
One focuses on ecological research, and the other supports monsters as gods.
Ryuriyuan is completely opposite to the other party in terms of philosophy alone.
And they won’t be like guilds, who choose the golden mean depending on the situation.
The level of radicalization is just like the West Factory led by Yu Huatian. It is completely beyond the control of the guild. I, Longli Yuan, will take care of it.
In the eyes of hunters, this style shows courage and is the embodiment of pioneering will.
But in the eyes of the Dragon Worship Cult, it may be contempt and blasphemy against the gods.
The Dragon Cult doesn't appear to be reflected in the game. Was it deliberately hidden? Forget it, let's get down to business first.
Two people and one cat took the elevator down from the airport and came to the bustling street.
Bars, clothing stores, antique shops.
Many store types that have never been heard of in villages can be seen everywhere on both sides of the street.
Perhaps because it is far away from the union headquarters, there are not many hunters wearing armor.
But the overall tone of the monster hunting world has not changed here, every time a hunter wearing high-end armor and carrying hunting weapons passes by.
He always gets the admiration and gaze of the people around him, and the cheers of the children.
In order to avoid unnecessary attention, the team only wore two sets of very common hunter leather armor when they disembarked.
"I want to go home and see my mother first. Do you want to be a guest at my house?"
Next to the fountain in the square, Eudora asked tentatively.
"I'm not going, I'll just wait for you here."
Li Fan on the bench refused.
"Okay, I will come back as soon as possible, and then we will go to the guild headquarters together."
After Eudora finished speaking, she quickly ran towards the passenger rail car in the city.
Not long after, Dilu jumped onto the bench holding two skewers of grilled fish.
"Here!..Hmm, it's so bustling here, nya! I haven't seen many things before."
Dilu chewed on the grilled fish, her cheeks puffed up and she sighed in admiration.
Li Fan took a taste and felt that this giant city-state looked particularly dreamy in the world of monster hunting.
After one person and one cat finished eating the grilled fish, a barefoot man wearing a red robe and a wide hood came to the edge of the fountain.
I saw him raising his hands and raising his head to face the sky.
"Ah! The judgment of fate will eventually come. The dark wings will cover the earth. The lost people, their flesh and bones will be burned, looking for the one who is liberated."
When the man in red robe said this, he suddenly paused.
After looking around, he pulled out a small note from the wide cuff of the red robe.
"Seeking liberation! Please follow the guidance of the Dragon Worship Cult! The dragon flames subside, the sun reappears, and the city is burned and rebuilt."
The man in red robe paused again and continued to look down at the small note.
"What are you doing, meow?"
Dilu asked curiously.
"It's probably a publicist hired by Bailongjiao, but he probably just went to work, so he's not very skilled in the business yet."
Li Fan speculated.
"There is a shop across the street with many monster dolls. I want to take a look."
Di Lu took Li Fan's arm and said.
"Let's go."
In the past, the things sold in shops in villages only highlighted one practical aspect.
In the East Doruma Business District, many entertainment-based industries have been opened.
Ding bell! Pushing open the store door, a burst of wind chimes sounded.
The area of the store is not large, but except for an antique standing clock, everything you see is covered with fabric dolls based on monsters, as well as a few sketches of monsters.
Inside, against the wall, a young woman wearing glasses is sewing on a sewing machine.
"Hello, welcome to Sofia's monster doll store. What would you like to buy?"
The woman stood up to say hello.
Li Fan and Li Fan looked at each other for a moment, and both sides felt that the other was a bit familiar.
Dilu came to a big strange bird doll and wanted to stretch out its cat paw to touch it, but quickly retracted it.
"Shopkeeper, how much does this big strange bird doll cost?"
"Yangkuku1400z."
The shop owner gives a quote.
"Uh, I didn't touch it, meow!"
Di Lu was frightened by the price and took a few steps back.
"It's a bit expensive. If you don't have enough money, you can replace it with monster materials."
The shopkeeper informed with a smile.
"Here comes a big wild boar king, and then a big strange bird, and Eudora can bring a horned dragon."
Li Fan was very generous and bought three dolls.
Of course the shop owner was very happy, but Di Lu was a little surprised because Li Fan didn't negotiate the price when he bought something this time.
After giving the payment of 6200z, Li Fan looked at the frog doll bag hung by the shop owner at his waist and asked, "Is this for sale?"
"This is a personal item and is not for sale, but if you can show me the compiler's monster description, I will be willing to make one for you."
The female shopkeeper looked at the huge book Li Fan was holding across his body and said.
"Is it okay if I can only draw a few?"
Li Fan asked.
"No problem, but the quality must be excellent."
Li Fan unfolded the book and rummaged for a moment, then took out six and handed them out.
"This stroke is so amazing!"
The female shopkeeper said in shock.
It can't be said how precise Li Fan's depiction is.
But I can see monsters every day and have a long observation time, so my grasp of the charm and overall shape is very good.
"I may not be able to stay in East Doruma for too long. I'll pick it up later when I have time."
"May I have your name?"
"My name is Li Fan."
"My name is Sophia."
Ding bell! Dilu, holding three monster dolls, walked out of the monster doll shop happily.
"Why don't you negotiate the price for this purchase, meow?"
Dilu asked curiously.
"The rent in this area is very expensive, please understand."
Li Fan explained.
Returning to the bench next to the fountain, it may be time for the barefoot red-robed brother to change his guard, and another barefoot yellow-robed brother has arrived.
Brother Huang Pao is not only proficient in his business, but he also speaks very fast, just like a rapper.
"So irritable, meow!"
After listening to the other person talking for more than ten minutes, Di Lu helplessly covered her ears.
Li Fan didn't expect there to be junk ads here, and he was equally annoyed, so he decided to get up and negotiate.
"Hello, this rapper, we are waiting for someone here, can you take a break?"
"OK"
The rapper nodded immediately.
"ah?"
Li Fan also didn't expect that the other party would be so easy to talk to.
"No! No! I have received money from the Dragon Worship Cult, so I have to talk in the square for an hour."
"Uh, is there room for negotiation?"
"Yes! The Dragon Worship Cult allowed me to come because they trusted me and gave me an hour! 80z!"
Regarding the 80z remuneration, the rapper was very vocal.
"How about I give you 200z and find a place to take a rest?"
After Li Fan finished speaking in a low voice, he stretched out his palm with two coins.
"No. Okay! People like you should join our Dragon Worship Cult!"
"Well, I'll go take a look when I have time."
The rapper raised his face, revealing his brown face hidden by the yellow hood.
He grinned, nodded and said, "Hey, see you soon."
Then he ran away with cheerful steps.
"It seems that Eudora is right. The people of the Dragon Worship Cult are quite strange."
After Li Fan finished chanting, he sat back on the bench.
"Actually, if you give me 200z, I can barely tolerate meowing, and I can also sing to resist the noise invasion."
Di Lu said with some distress.
"Di Lu, your consumption concept needs to change."
Li Fan looked at the fountain and said.
"Why meow?"
"According to the information I have reviewed, you have become a five-star hunting cat after Huihui's crusade. After two battles with the Wind God Dragon and Thunder God Dragon, it is possible to reach six stars, and six-star hunting cats are rare.
The level is said to be comparable to that of a seven-star hunter, and the hiring fee is even more ridiculously high."
Li Fan informed.
"There is such a thing, meow."
Dilu couldn't believe it.
"Of course, this still has to wait for the guild to issue an evaluation certification, but I think it will definitely not be lower than five stars."
"I'm at least a five-star hunting cat, Meow!"
Dilu looked at the pads of her paws and felt like she was in a dream.
Among the ancestors of the Ellu cats in Kala Village, there was only one four-star hunting cat.
"So you have to show off the momentum you deserve and let the guild headquarters firmly believe that you are the best hunting cat when it comes to certification."
Li Fan instructed.
"Okay, meow!"
Dilu's fighting spirit was aroused.
It had been quiet for about an hour, and the person and cat leaning on the bench were about to fall asleep.
A pleasant sound of wind chimes came.
Li Fan opened his sleepy eyes and saw a girl with snow-white eyebrows and hair wearing a white dress standing at the edge of the fountain.
Seeing the bell ring on the opponent's ankle, Li Fan confirmed the source of the ringtone.
This time, the girl used chanting to promote the Dragon Worship Cult.
His voice is melodious and melodious, which is obviously easier for people to accept than the rappers and ci brothers.
There were even many people watching and cheering, so Li Fandilu naturally did not resist.
About half an hour later, Eudora, carrying a large pile of bacon rolls, ran over quickly.
"This is the bacon roll made by my mother. Try it."
Eudora pointed to her back and said.
"How is the situation at home?"
"Both Mom and Ellu Cat Pari are very good, but they are still as nagging as before. They are always afraid that I will not have enough to eat outside, and they also ask me not to accept hunting missions with three stars or above."
Eudora sighed.
"She still doesn't know that you are the chief hunter of Ryūliyuan?"
Li Fan originally thought it was unbelievable, but when he thought about the way information is transmitted in the monster hunting world, it was understandable even if it was not clear.
"Although I want her to be proud of me, if I really tell her, I may never be able to go out to practice again."
Eudora said a little disappointed.
"This is the monster doll Li Fan bought for you, Meow!"
Dilu lifted up the ceratopsian doll.
"Oh! Isn't this a handsome guy? The details are really well done."
Eudora looked surprised.
"I bought it from the shop opposite, meow."
Dilu pointed to the shops across the square.
"That's the doll shop opened by the receptionist Sophia of the Legendary Hunter Troupe. No wonder the dolls are so realistically made."
Eudora said in surprise.
"She's waving this way Hello! Sophia Meow!"
Dilu waved.
"It is indeed her."
Li Fan said thoughtfully.
"Yes, you have also heard of the legendary experience of the Hunter Brigade, Li Fandilu, right?"
Eudora asked excitedly.
"No meow."
"I heard that they tracked the Black Eclipse Dragon all the way and finally hunted the Heavenly Dragon, right?"
Li Fan asked tentatively.
"Yes, their experience can be called a legend among legends. Well, the only pity is that the legendary hunter in the brigade disappeared mysteriously. There are rumors that it may be that the dragon disease he contracted is getting worse and he can no longer continue hunting.
So I retreated to my hometown. After all, I am a hunter who can enter the Grand Hall and drink with the president. It’s a pity to think about it.”
Eudora said regretfully.
"Another one disappeared."
Li Fan muttered softly.
He really couldn't understand why the protagonists in previous generations ended up missing.
Is it the unique destiny of this world, or is there someone deliberately influencing their destiny?
