The monster has four claws, but it does not crawl on the ground. Instead, it twists and slides against the ground on the mucus released by the purple mane, just like a snake.
Under the setting sun, the water-stained scales showed a rainbow-like crystal luster.
Toot! Toot! Toot!....
As it slides, bubbles continue to rise from the mucus and overflow outward.
Bubble fox dragon!
Li Fan recognized the type of monster at first glance.
However, the sudden appearance of the Bubble Fox Dragon was too frightening, causing his brain to fall into a short-circuit state.
Due to his lack of knowledge about the world of monster hunting before, Li Fan didn't feel any pressure even when he met the Thunder Wolf Dragon.
Now let alone encountering it, even if you move within its range of activities, you will feel frightened.
what to do?
With Kuku's help, Samsung was almost overturned.
The five-star level monster Buhulong, not to mention various characteristics, is probably more than 20 meters long.
This is impossible to fight!
"Li Fan, you and Di Lu evacuate first."
Eudora stared at Buhulong warily and touched the hilt of the sword with one hand.
But before he could touch her, Li Fan grabbed his wrist.
"Wait a minute, there are no obvious wounds on the body of this Foul Fox Dragon, and according to the literature, the Foul Fox Dragon is not very aggressive unless it is during the breeding period."
Li Fan informed softly.
For a monster with a gentle personality and extremely strong strength.
Unions generally won't mess with you.
Over time, this type of monster naturally has no ill feelings towards the hunters it encounters.
However, this common sense will not apply to individuals who have been hunted down by hunting teams, or who hate humans for some special reasons.
Li Fan carefully observed the whole body of this bubble fox dragon.
The mane is bright, the scales are neat, and the leaf-like pink fins on the back are not missing at all.
The most important thing is that the Bubble Fox Dragon was obviously aware of the existence of their team, and it was still gliding leisurely and slowly, showing no intention to fight.
"All right."
Eudora no longer had any intention of drawing her sword to fight, but her eyes still did not dare to shift for a moment.
Phew! Phew!
The Bubble Dragon twists its body in a snake-like manner, forming a ring with its head and tail facing each other, sliding and spinning in place.
Under the friction of the mucus, a dozen huge bubbles spread outward.
Di Lu stared blankly at a giant bubble floating towards him.
When he thought about turning around and escaping, the bubbles had already trapped him inside.
Bang! Li Fan picked up the hunter's knife and popped the bubbles, and the frightened Di Lu had to escape.
Bubblesaurus seems to be sensitive to the sound of bubbles popping.
But after just watching the team for a moment, he turned his attention elsewhere.
Not long after, the entire body of Paohulong lay down comfortably, its two front paws were intertwined on the ground, and the white fox rested its head on it.
Following Pao Hulong's upward gaze, Li Fan turned his head to look at the sky full of sunset, and said with some surprise: "He is also looking at the rainbow..."
This crisis-filled encounter ended with the team's safe evacuation.
It was already evening when we returned to the camp.
Perhaps due to the heavy shock they suffered today, neither the two of them nor the cat had much appetite, so they had a hasty dinner and decided to go to bed early.
Tomorrow morning we will rush back to Kara Village as quickly as possible to report the sighting of the Foul Fox Dragon.
This is not because I am trying to earn the reward for the first sighting, but I am really worried about Kara Village.
Li Fan tossed and turned, not feeling sleepy at all.
Today's encounter with Pao Hulong made him deeply feel his own weakness for the first time.
When facing a fight with a bird, I also felt very uncomfortable.
If you want to describe it accurately, it is the fear of monsters.
A fear that is deeply rooted and instinctive.
"Eudora, are you asleep?"
"No."
"Have you ever been afraid when facing a monster?"
Li Fan asked.
"Yes, I used to be very scared when I faced an armored dragon for the first time in my hometown of Dongdoruma."
"Then what? How did you adapt to it?"
"I don't know. Two ribs were broken that time. I feel that the Ankylosaurus is nothing more than that. I won't be afraid when I see it again."
Eudora responded.
"Aren't you... afraid that you will die?"
"Monsters will die when they are killed."
Eudora's surprising brain circuit made Li Fan understand why the other party dared to draw his sword against Pao Hulong.
"Of course, I also have choices in the hunting mission. I will despair when encountering dangerous situations, but I persevere. If I want to talk about the secret to overcoming fear, it is to constantly remind myself that even if the monster's attack hits, it will not
It wasn't as painful as I imagined, and I had to hold on for a while...it might be the monster I'm afraid of."
Eudora spoke of experience.
Li Fan had never heard of this statement, but he had some insights.
Open the booklet summarizing strength training methods.
The body's ability to resist blows and endure pain will also increase with the increase in strength. It is recorded, but there is a question mark after it to indicate that it has not been confirmed.
The next day, at dawn, the team had already dismantled the camp and headed back on the road.
We rushed back to Kara Village before noon.
"Welcome to the Hunter Guild!"
As soon as Eudora entered the union door, Shirin greeted her.
"Hello Shirin, hunting certification plus submission of contract."
"Why isn't Li Fan here... Could it be!"
Shirin glanced at the contract and covered her mouth in surprise.
"Li Fan is fine. He was looking after the captured birds outside the village. I heard that the guild investigators were dispatched to monitor the Thunder Wolf Dragon, and the wild hunting certification would be delayed, so I simply called the cat transport team."
Eudora explained.
"So it turns out that the union's supply of hunting supplies was cut off yesterday, and the only one that still has the carrying capacity is the Cat Transport Team... So, I'll take the time to do the certification at noon, and the location will be at the woodland cabin, right?"
Shirin said and recorded it on a manuscript.
"Yes, thank you very much."
"It doesn't matter. Being able to share the work with investigators who are involved in danger in the wild is also a contribution to the village and the union."
Shireen smiled broadly.
"There is still a sighting report to be submitted. This is a collection sample of monster traces. The collector is Dilu, the hunting cat of this village."
"Oh, what kind of substance is this?"
Shirin curiously picked up the glass bottle and observed it.
"The foaming synovial fluid of the Bubble Fox Dragon."
"Bubble Fox Dragon!!!"
Shirin shouted in disbelief.
The originally noisy union hall fell silent instantly, and all the hunters focused their attention on the counter.
"Shireen, you will cause panic."
The waitress in pink next to her stood up and reminded her in a low voice.
"Sorry, Jayna."
After Shirin finished speaking, she approached Eudora and asked in a very low voice: "Although you are a three-star hunter, this attack report may have a major impact on Kara Village, so I want to confirm again that you are true.
Have you ever witnessed a fox dragon?"
"That's right, and it's not far from the activity range of Thunder Wolf Dragon."
Eudora said firmly.
"Okay, I will report it to the branch president immediately. This bottle of foaming synovial fluid will also be identified as soon as possible. The payment of the witness reward can only be postponed. Please understand."
"no problem."
Eudora came out of the Hunting Guild, feeling a little more relaxed.
If this sighting report is deemed valid, not only will he be rewarded, Dilu will also be directly promoted from a one-star hunting cat to a two-star hunting cat.
But Dilu didn't appear very happy at this time.
A five-star Thunder Wolf Dragon was still unable to be dealt with, but another five-star Bubble Fox Dragon appeared.
The situation of Kara Village can be said to be precarious.
At the forest farm outside the village, Li Fan looked at the scratching birds in the wooden fence. He remembered that he hadn't checked the properties yet, so he took out his handheld device.
【Tickling Bird】Male (not named)
Level:8
HP:378/1104
Status: OK
Strength:49
Agility:22
Intelligence:31
Skill: [Oviparous Nest Exploration] The tickling bird can accurately find the nest of egg-laying monsters in complex environments.
【Grab and Smash】The bird can use its flexible front paws to hug objects and hit them.
Introduction: A bird-dragon monster, the gorgeous feathers on its head are very unique.
He likes to steal all kinds of dragon eggs for food, so he has become the number one enemy of many egg-laying monsters.
What the hell does this state mean? Does it mean good or not bad?
Forget it, there's no point in delving into it. Anyway, with Titiao in the future, you don't have to worry about Taimei's safety.
Although there is no label in the data, the carrying capacity of those powerful hind legs, which are similar to those of a jumping dragon, must be higher than that of Taimei.
Since I like can-shaped objects so much, let me call you Can Can.
After naming the bird, Li Fan checked the unread messages on his handheld device.
No rewards, no unlocks.
It was naturally boring to watch.
However, the reminder of Kuku's favorability change quickly caught Li Fan's attention.
Judging from the time, it was the time when the first pursuit and interception of the bird was launched and the battle began.
Kuku's favorability towards him first decreased once, and then increased three times in a row.
Li Fan analyzed the reason and found that the first decrease may be due to his weak combat performance, which made Kuku feel that he was not very powerful.
After the battle command, he felt that the backward jumping fireball he taught was indeed useful in actual combat, and his good feelings were once again restored.
The second increase in favorability should be the air blade slash used to save Kuku who fell to the ground and divert hatred.
The third increase in favorability comes from the combined skill, the chaotic killing of man and bird.
It's funny to say that this so-called combination technique was simply done by Li Fan randomly.
Unexpectedly, Kuku actually took it seriously at that time, and rushed over to try to use it with him.
Li Fan concluded from this that monsters are obviously more willing to follow a powerful enough master.
At least that's the case for now.
If your combat performance is cowardly and weak, the monsters will dislike you.
At noon, Shirin hurried over, completed the bird-tickling hunting certification, paid the reward, and left in a hurry.
She said that the confirmed sighting of Buhulong had put the branch into a somewhat chaotic situation, and she had to rush back as soon as possible.
In the evening, Eudora, who came back from Kara Village, did not rush to cook, but informed that an urgent mission about the joint hunting was about to be carried out in the village.
Because it concerns the safety of all villagers, anyone can go to the scene to listen to the situation.
"There won't be a situation where a table of people will discuss for a long time, and in the end only one person who doesn't like to talk will go out to hunt, right?"
Li Fan thought of his past at the Star Stronghold and asked tentatively.
"Of course not. In a joint hunting mission of this level, even if three-star hunters participate, they are probably responsible for logistics or cover. The only ones who can actually participate in the battle head-on are at least four-star hunters."
Eudora explained.
"Then let's go."
Li Fan also felt that he was worrying too much.
At the entrance of the Hunters Guild, illuminated by dozens of torches.
Four tables were put together to form an oversized square table, with a map depicting the terrain surrounding Kara Village spread out on it.
When Li Fan and Eudora arrived, they were surrounded by villagers and hunters, and they stood on the outside.
The village chief, Barzelli, and a young man wearing a full set of rock dragon armor were located in the middle behind the table, with several union investigators standing on both sides.
Barzelli cleared his throat and began to speak solemnly.
"Through eyewitness reports and on-site confirmation by union investigators, after the Thunder Wolf Dragon, the union confirmed that a Foul Fox Dragon was found around Kara Village."
With dual certification from Bazeli and the Hunter Guild, the rumors were confirmed, and the crowd instantly exploded.
"After discussion with the branch president, Harlan, we decided to issue an emergency joint hunting mission. Let Harlan announce the specific mission details."
After Barzelli finished speaking, he took two steps back to the side.
"Hello everyone, since I was transferred, I have been busy with the construction of public outdoor camps and rarely show up in the village. Let me introduce myself now. I am the president of the Kala Village branch of the Hunter Guild, five-star hunter Harlan. Regarding the current situation that Kala Village is suffering from,
Threat, the guild has been working hard to improve it. After analysis, the Thunder Wolf Dragon has shown extremely strong aggression recently, which was probably caused by the turf war with the Buhu Dragon. To this end, the village chief Bazeli and I worked out a plan
A repel plan that focuses on provoking monsters to fight. However, the number of hunters currently recruited is very limited. Since it is unlikely that a team of hunters with sufficient qualifications can take over the task alone, a joint hunt is launched for all hunters stationed in Kara Village.
recruit."
After Harlan finished speaking, he spread out an extra-long scroll-style contract on the table.
"It's completely invisible."
It was already dark at night, and Li Fan, who was outside, couldn't see anything written on the contract even if he stepped on his feet.
"It doesn't matter. This joint hunting contract will be announced in the union hall tomorrow."
Eudora informed.
"I understand. Such a public announcement is to mobilize the hunters in the village to participate in the union's plan as much as possible."
As soon as Li Fan finished speaking, Harlan and the members of the trade union investigation team signed and fingerprinted the scroll contract one by one.
Then several hunters walked out of the crowd and signed the scroll contract.
A young hunter wearing a two-star hunting medal came to the table with determination, but before he could pick up his pen, he was persuaded to leave because he did not have enough stars.
Eudora raised the Blue Bear Beast wrist armor on her hand and turned sideways to squeeze into the crowd.
"what you do?"
"Go and sign the contract."
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Li Fan reminded: "Give me the Skeleton Sword first, otherwise it will be difficult to squeeze to the front."
"Thank you very much."
Eudora took off the skeleton sword and handed it over.
What Li Fan really wanted to say was to advise Eudora not to participate in the joint hunting.
Because in terms of the degree of danger, even if the union's idea is to provoke a fight between monsters and repel the plan, the degree of danger is really too high.
But then I thought about it, both the forest land and the research institution depended on Kara Village for their existence.
If Kara Village disappears, then all Eudora's efforts will be in vain.
One after another, hunters left their names on the scroll contract. After signing, a young hunter raised a question.
"Village Chief, since this mission is rated as five-star and requires the signature of the hunter, why is there no name?"
In the world of monster hunting, every joint hunting will be regarded as a war by the union and will be recorded in the records.
"That's right. Due to the emergency, the name of the task has not been determined yet."
Harlan explains.
Bazeli looked at the full moon in the sky, stroking his beard with a deep expression.
"Let's just call it a pas de deux under the moon."
