"It seems I'm over-worrying. Isn't it just floating in the air when you're paralyzed? There's really nothing funny about it."
Eudora walked towards the bar and muttered.
"Oops, I forgot my belt by the hot spring."
Thinking of having a treat, Eudora quickly turned back.
When we arrived at the hot spring, we heard the wild laughter of a man and a cat.
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha meow!"
Eudora, who raised her eyebrows, slowed down and leaned against the stone pillar next to the hot spring.
"I floated away in a state of paralysis! Hahaha! How could I have such a weird experience?"
"Floating away in violent trembling, meow~ hahaha."
Eudora clenched her fists and jumped out from behind the stone pillar.
"You actually..."
Swish~swish~swish~
"The strength is not bad, nya."
Di Lu, who was rubbing Li Fan's back at this time, asked.
"Not bad, it's very comfortable. I'll get a brush later and brush it for you too."
Li Fan, who was enjoying himself with his eyes closed in the pool, responded.
"Oh? It's Eudora, don't you want to treat me?"
Di Lu asked in surprise.
"Well, you didn't have my belt. You forgot to take it. The money is in it."
Eudora hesitated and picked up the belt beside the hot spring pool.
Strange, I heard laughter just now, could it be that I was hallucinating.
With doubts in mind, Eudora went to the bar in the lobby.
The capture of the top ice monster Ice Dragon has been included in the plan, and Li Fan's action tendency has begun to shift towards investigation within the plot.
According to the traditional plot of Monster Hunter classics, the cover monster is mostly used to take the blame.
Li Fan didn't want to correct anything. After all, a lot of relevant evidence was accumulated through repeated investigations.
If he ignores the process, he will only have one conclusion, which is not enough to convince everyone.
Due to the successful hunting of the Poisonous Dragon, the exploration of the mountain ice cave was immediately expanded.
Two days later, the team received an invitation from the Wilderness Master to conduct a joint investigation.
However, earlier that day, the summons issued by Frye at the Star Stronghold was also conveyed.
Based on the principle of being close, the team decided to head to the ice cave first to check out the situation.
After continuously exploring downwards in the cave, the team finally reunited with the Wilderness Master beside an ancient sunken ship.
"This ship belongs to an adventure group that visited a long time ago. In their records, they mentioned a large number of noisy monsters, singing, unknown creatures that can bring frost disasters, and a rare crystal stone. This is what I am in the cabin.
Sample found."
Master Yuanye told all the information he had learned.
"This crystal is the same as the one my grandfather brought back to the original continent."
As Ai Bo said, he took out the dark blue crystal stone with the same texture.
"So your grandfather was also exploring the secret of that ancient dragon before."
"Yes, I always feel that if we start the investigation this way, we will soon be able to get closer to the truth."
Ai Bo said very excitedly.
"I also have this hunch, April, would you like to investigate with me? Let's continue to pursue clues until we find out the truth."
Facing the invitation from Master Yuanye, Ai Bo hesitated.
"Go ahead, Aibo, and believe in yourself."
Eudora encouraged.
"Okay! I will contact you as soon as I find the creature."
Ai Bo assured.
On Li Fan's side, he thought that an ice-toothed dragon in the plot would cause problems for the two of them in their investigation, so he assigned Yaya to help take care of it.
Then he rushed to the Star Stronghold. A few days later, when everyone arrived, Frye explained the purpose of gathering everyone.
The sudden appearance of two subspecies, the Floating Dragon and the Water Demon Bird, made scholars at the Institute of Ecology very uneasy.
Combined with the massive leakage of miasma on the continental coral platform and the migration of the Fengdiaolong group, a theory that the ecology is quietly mutating has been put forward.
Of course, Xingchen Stronghold did not want to be so passive, so it decided to take the initiative to launch an investigation. The goal was to know who the enemy it was facing was at least before the crisis came.
At the end of the meeting, Dilu stuffed the two contracts [Sleeping Dragon and Four Eyes] and [Occupy the Drinking Water Point!] into the book.
"The water monster bird appeared on the Coral Platform a long time ago. I feel that even if I successfully hunt, I won't be able to find any useful information."
Li Fan commented.
"Then go hunt the Floating Sleeping Dragon."
Eudora suggested.
"If you have enough time to sleep on the sleeping dragon, just hunt one."
"Why don't you seem very interested?"
Eudora asked curiously.
"Compared with the anomalies that will occur in the future, their impact is really limited."
Li Fan said with emotion.
"Are you saying that there are more unusual situations that will appear one after another?"
"Yes, but the investigation must be carried out step by step, so let's get started first."
The team immediately boarded the Flame and headed towards the Great Ant Mound Wasteland marked in the contract.
After two days of traveling, the Flame hovered above the canyon bushes.
On the deck, Li Fan showed the painted portrait of the sleeping dragon to the little fool for a naughty look.
Ouch?
Naughty, who became more and more confused as he watched, let out a confused roar.
"Naughty, this is not its head. This is the bulging ball formed by inflating the neck bag. The two red eyes that look like eyeballs are the mimic camouflage formed by the fur, specially used to scare monsters."
Li Fan patiently explained.
Ouch~
The little fool said, what a big head.
"Forget this is not its head, just treat it as a head attack."
Li Fan helplessly held his forehead.
After receiving the order, the two dragons immediately flew away and dived into the canyon to explore.
Not long after, a series of roars sounded, and a large number of monsters began to escape.
Naughty, who smelled a hint of something different, landed on the ground, spread his paws and started tracking on foot.
The little fool immediately hovered in the sky to prevent the floating sleeping dragon from escaping from the sky.
Due to the obstruction of the canyons on both sides, there is basically no light at the bottom of the jungle in this desert and it is very dark.
rustle~
Not long after, I noticed a slight scraping of leaves coming from behind me, and I playfully turned around to watch.
Behind the large vertical vine branches, there was a darkness, like a black hole.
Ouch~
Naughty tilted his head and blinked, thinking that maybe he was too sensitive, so he continued to explore.
rustle~
There was another sound, and Naughty looked back again, and was surprised to find two huge round eyes with green light around them, staring closely at him.
Ouch!
Naughty exclaimed and jumped up on the spot.
The red round eyes slowly moved backwards while staring, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
Be wary of the confrontation for a moment, and playfully scan the surrounding environment, which is extremely quiet.
Twisted tree trunks, swaying vines, and tiny fluorescent insects.
Every ordinary thing seems strange now.
Huh~huh~
He watched playfully for a moment, then flapped his wings and took off into the sky.
Ouch?
The little fool was quite surprised when he saw Naughty suddenly taking off from the forest.
Ouch~
Naughty said he was a little worried about the little fool, so he came up first to check on the situation.
Ouch!
The little fool immediately said, don't go search for targets in the forest and come and see what I do.
Ouch~
Naughty spit out a ball of tiny flames from his mouth and dived helplessly into the jungle.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Explosions of blue flames continued to sound in the jungle.
The team on the airship deck immediately picked up their binoculars and started watching.
In the long and narrow valley, flashes of blue light illuminated the surroundings, and thick smoke emerged.
I thought that what I saw would be a fierce battle, but it turned out to be just a naughty blind attack, which made the two of them curious.
"Does Naughty want to use frequent attacks to force the floating sleeping dragon out?"
Eudora speculated.
"It's not like meow, the fireball just explodes around. It's a bit like it's lighting up the surroundings!"
Dilu expressed his opinion.
Li Fan thought for a moment and turned on his handheld device to check the situation.
When I saw [Mimetic Fear] in the status bar, I immediately understood that Naughty was actually frightened by the Floating Sleeping Dragon.
"Why don't you let this floating sleeping dragon die? How dare you scare naughty people?"
Li Fan lowered his head and looked at the elf ball on his shoulder strap.
"You like to scare people, right?"
With that said, the elf ball containing Ye Ye was taken down.
Boom! The big tree burned and fell.
Boom! The rock wall shattered and fell off.
Boom! The river evaporated and dried up.
The naughty chest and throat have been burned to a pink color by the high temperature.
Just when he was examining the surrounding movements and preparing to eliminate potential threats first, a cooing sound came from behind.
He shook his head playfully and was about to spit out a fireball when he suddenly realized that it was a night cry and stopped immediately.
Ye Ye fled far away and flew back immediately.
Gugu~
Ye Ye said don't be afraid, I will determine the opponent's position first, and then you can attack.
Ouch! Naughty means I'm not afraid.
Ye Ye did not continue to argue. He flapped his wings and left a string of silver light spots in the air before disappearing into the jungle.
After stopping on several branches, Ye Ye found some lavender hairs.
Following the trace to the ground, I found a certain amount of gray dust on the grass.
After pecking it with his beak, Ye Ye immediately felt dizzy and intensely sleepy.
Goo. Goo.
After praising the extraordinary purity of this sleep dust, Ye Ye fell sideways to the ground.
Not far ahead, the neck bag inhales and turns into a spherical floating dragon. It spreads its wings and floats and glides under the cover of the tree shade.
A pair of big, rat-like ears with huge cochleae are carefully listening to every subtle sound in the surroundings.
Phew~
After not noticing anything unusual for a long time, the floating dragon dared to exhale gently and push its body slightly to continue floating.
Ouch?
At this time, a naughty questioning voice sounded, indicating that Ye Ye are you okay?
After not receiving a response for a long time, I suddenly had a bad feeling.
Ouch!
A fierce roar sounded.
"Ah? Ye Ye is dead, right?"
Hearing the naughty roar, Li Fan quickly took out his handheld device to confirm.
As a result, I saw that Ye Ye was almost at full capacity, and the only problem was that I had just woken up.
"Naughty! The information you sent is completely nonsense!"
Hearing the denial from Li Fan above, his naughty and nervous mind relaxed.
At this time, the floating dragon moved forward in a silent floating manner, and found that the entire area in front of it had been cleared by blue flames, and there was no hiding place at all.
Then it began to flap its wings at the lowest amplitude and turned sideways.
Bang~
At this time, the bulging neck bag collided with a similarly bulging sphere, causing the entire body to rebound.
In order not to make any sound, Fumianlong can only adjust by swinging slightly.
When I was about to continue flying, bang~
The floating dragon was bounced back again.
Only then did it see clearly that there was a vague outline on the branch of the tree it wanted to pass through.
What keeps bouncing it back happens to be the opponent's bulging abdomen.
Ouch~ow~
Fu Mianlong hummed in a low voice, saying that he should give way to his brother, otherwise something strange would happen.
Ye Ye's red round eyes emerged from the darkness.
Gugu~ means you can’t even think about it.
The floating Fumianlong immediately straightened its body, and with its huge red eyes bulging from its neck bag, it faced Yeye.
Gu~gu~gu~
Every night, he started tweeting at a high frequency, and the content was only one sentence. This is not a gimmick!
Seeing that the shock effect of [Mimetic Fear] failed, Fu Mianlong immediately took a sharp breath.
Boom! An air cannon filled with a large amount of cyan mist erupted from the mouth of the floating sleeping dragon.
He jumped up from the tree branch to avoid the air cannon, and while Ye Ye flapped his wings to disperse the fog, he moved backwards and retreated.
With the help of the air cannon's reverse thrust, the super-fast Fumianlong began to flap its wings vigorously to escape.
Phew! The dragon-shaped shadow left by the golden fire dragon's wingspan streaked across from above.
The Flying Dragon can only lower its flight altitude in the forest.
However, after only hiding for a moment, the low-flying Silver Fire Dragon came out from the side again.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After a series of fire explosions, the floating sleeping dragon with black smoke rising from its body flew out of the trees and fell to the sand outside the canyon.
Before he could get up, two blasts of wind came from above, it was the little fool and naughty guy who were chasing him.
Phew~
The fallen Fumianlong still did not give up resistance, inhaling gently to fill the neck bag with air.
Seeing this, Naughty raised his paws and stepped on it.
Pfft~
Fu Mianlong, who felt that his organs were about to be crushed, quickly vomited out the air and no longer dared to make any resistance.
Not long after, the Flame Horn arrived, and two people and a cat jumped from the sky.
Li Fan walked around the floating dragon, stopped and asked, "Aren't you a local monster?"
Ouch~ Fu Mianlong said no.
"Then where are you from?"
Ouch~
“A very cold place”
Li Fan speculated that what the other party was talking about was most likely the eternal frost and frozen soil.
"Why come here?"
Ouch~
After hearing the other party's answer, Li Fan was stunned.
"What did Fu Mianlong say?"
Eudora asked.
"It says that the great existence is about to awaken and must stay away."
Li Fan informed.
"It seems that the subspecies that appeared in the New World did migrate from the frosty soil."
Eudora reasoned.
"Well, are there any other monsters that come to live here?"
Oooh~ooh~ooh~
The floating dragon raised its head upon hearing this and said very proudly that its brother, the water demon bird, was also here.
And in a place full of corals, I also met a more powerful big brother.
"So powerful."
Li Fan exclaimed.
Ouch~
Fu Mianlong proudly said that as long as there is a rainbow, the big brother can appear at any time.
Li Fan thought for a moment, raised his hand, and immediately lifted his naughty paws away.
The incredulous Fu Mianlong showed a very surprised expression.
"I won't kill you today to show respect to that big brother, but I have to collect some hair and don't move it around. Dilu, scrape some material for research."
