On the sea, Puff carries the healing ball containing Xiaogang and gradually goes away.
Li Fan summoned Bie Bie Zi, who was looking for rodents everywhere.
"Baaaizi, I want some rodent samples. Is there any way?"
Ouch~
Biebazi blinked and said yes, but you have to stay away.
The team immediately ran away and hid behind a rock.
Meiezi dug his four claws into the ground, raised his fangs, and assumed a posture of gaining momentum.
"How ferocious! Are you trying to scare the rodents out, meow?"
Dilu exclaimed and asked.
"It's not clear yet, but Meiezi should have his own way."
Li Fan speculated.
呲~呲~
The thorns shining with silver metallic luster began to proliferate rapidly.
Phew~
Bie Meazi jumped up with all her strength, turned her body over, and then hit the ground with her back.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Countless thorns shot out.
The two people and the cat who looked around quickly retreated into the rocks.
The noise soon subsided, and after the team approached to investigate, they found an individual rodent impaled on the ends of four sharp thorns.
"It's all pink, has bat-like wings, and has a body like"
Di Lu, who was observing and recording, suddenly paused when writing this.
"The body is like the neck of a strange dragon."
Li Fan informed.
"That's right, meow! Such an apt metaphor."
After Di Lu praised him, he continued to lower his head and record it. Then he took out the glass bottle and collected it carefully.
"Why do I feel like this one is a bit big?"
Eudora, who was watching, expressed doubts.
"It seems to be true. Isn't it caused by the abundant energy in Meiezi's body?"
Li Fan also quickly saw the difference.
Pfft~
While the two were communicating, the rodent being observed escaped from the thorns piercing its body by flapping its wings close to the ground.
After trying to take off to no avail, it slowly approached Eudora in a squirming manner.
"Let's grab a sample and see."
Li Fan said and threw a diamond ball.
Tsk~tsk~tsk
After three slight tremors, the capture was completed.
Li Fan took out his handheld device to check.
【Rodent】
HP:50/421↑
Status: Seriously injured and endangered, severe puncture injury, blood loss, host locked, desire to survive, boss betrayed me, energy surge.
Level:18↑
Strength:11↑
Agility:69↑
Intelligence:31↑
Skill: [Energy Amplification Mutation] This monster is in the energy amplification mutation, and its attributes are fully improved.
[Hosting and Absorption] Rodents lodge on the surface of large monsters. By constantly changing their lodging locations, they can absorb the monster's vitality for a long time and store it in themselves.
[Insect poison reagent - small tendency] When rodents sense powerful small creatures, they will first try to inject insect poison reagents. If the target does not die within a certain period of time, the rodents will leave the group and allow themselves to parasitize small creatures first.
body surface.
Note: There is a limit to the number of rodents that can live on the surface of small organisms at the same time.
[Insect Swarm] This monster can work closely with monsters of the same type.
[Tribulation Blood Injection] The absorbed vitality circulates through the body of the rodent, which will produce alienated calamity blood. After the injection is turned on, various abilities in the host's body will be greatly improved.
[Selective Homing] Rodents that go out to collect vitality may abandon the original host if they find that the current host has better parasitic conditions.
Introduction: Insects shrouded in mystery.
It has two terrifying properties: poison and life-draining, which are extremely terrifying.
"It seems that rodents can mutate through their hosts. It's a bit complicated. It's not that they won't host small organisms, but they're just a bit picky."
Li Fan looked at the handheld device and gave his judgment.
"So, it just recognized me and crawled towards me."
Eudora asked curiously.
"It's possible, but you can't try insect poison casually. It's best to tell Fiolena."
In the game plot, Fiorena was poisoned by bugs and almost died.
Unexpectedly, this was a sign of approval from the rodent, but Fiolena was not lodged by the rodent afterwards.
Could it be that there is a human version of weird overcoming?
While thinking, Li Fan glimpsed two mutation routes related to rodents.
The first is to allow rodents to lodge and try to provide the ultimate host with habitat conditions.
The second type is to continuously stimulate [Tribulation Blood Infusion], repeatedly stimulate the body, and normalize the weird overcoming.
"It's done, meow! Why is there one missing?"
After completing the collection of three samples, Dilu looked at the thorns and said curiously.
"I captured another one."
Li Fan shook the diamond ball in his hand.
"As long as there are no omissions, these flying insects are too dangerous, meow."
Dilu covered her chest with her cat paws and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In the afternoon, the team returned to the public camp located within the dilapidated city walls.
Although the fortress high ground is not far from the stronghold, Li Fan, who has a lot to do right now, has no time to go back and submit the contract.
Fortunately, the team has long been qualified to self-certify the progress of the contract. There is no need for monsters to act as corpses. A report can complete the contract certification.
After Hu compiled a report about the rodents, Li Fan wrote a letter to Fiolena, informing her of the dangers of the rodents, and sent a sample collected by Dilu.
At the end of the letter, it was repeatedly emphasized that Fiolena must not provoke Jueyinlong, and that when the research on rodents comes to fruition, an antidote to the insect poison must be developed as soon as possible.
After finishing their busy work, it came to evening. In addition to rabbit dumplings, the meals provided by the camp also included various meats. After the team had eaten their fill, they continued to explore deep into the fortress highlands.
"I don't know how everyone in the Flame is doing, meow."
Dilu looked at the gray sky and sighed.
"Don't worry, if you go with the guild's fleet, there will definitely be no problems."
After Li Fan comforted him, he looked at his surroundings, and then released Cheche and Angry Horns.
After explaining the advantages and disadvantages of rodent mutation, the two dragons suddenly became excited and looked eager to try.
"These two specimens are still recovering from their injuries, please handle them gently."
The energy of Miezizi did mutate the two rodents, but the impending death from puncture could not be easily alleviated.
Ouch~
Ouch~
Cheche and Yuanjiao both promised to treat them well.
Eudora Dilu looked at each other and was speechless for a while. She never expected that members of the monster team would take the initiative to allow rodents to parasitize them.
Opening the diamond ball, a white light flashed, and a rodent landed on the grass.
The sharp claws of the car reached forward, and the rodent flapped its wings with all its strength and jumped onto the forearm.
Phew~
Not caring about sneaking into the carapace, he found the weak wing membrane and the sucker-shaped mouth of the rodent, opened his mouth and stuck to it.
Cheche raised his head and felt it quietly, looking completely indifferent.
"Only one is still seriously injured, so it will definitely not have a strong effect."
Ouch?
Cheche said what should I do?
"Rodents like powerful monsters. Maybe you can plunder some. This can help other monsters get rid of their pain."
Li Fan suggested.
Ouch! Ouch!
Bang!
The trains and trains started to move and soon disappeared.
Then it was Angry Horn's turn, but facing the rodent that was very difficult to move, Angry Horn suddenly became vigilant.
After repeated searches and confirmations, red light overflowed from the eyes of the old grudge, and then a large number of purple will-o'-the-wisps emerged from the body surface.
"What's wrong with Angry Horns, meow?"
Dilu asked curiously.
"It seems that Hungry Ni Wudao triggered it. This skill has never been triggered even when fighting Huangheilong before."
Li Fan took out his handheld device and checked it. After confirming that it was really turned on, he glanced at the skill introduction again.
[Hungry Rebellion] When the call of duty reaches a certain level, the Resentful Tiger Dragon will start a frenzied eating mode, greatly enhancing its strength and agility attributes by devouring monsters, while its intelligence attributes will continue to decrease.
After the enhancement continues, the Resentful Tiger Dragon will enter a weak state, and 50% of the temporarily acquired enhanced attributes will be retained permanently.
"The last time I activated the summons was during the Night Parade of Hundred Dragons, so the Abyssal Dragon should be the target of the Angry Horn this time."
Li Fan gave a guess, but he still didn't quite understand the mechanism of the induction trigger.
The rodent landed on the back of the Resentful Horn. Although [Hungry Rebellion and Wudao] was triggered by the opponent, the Resentful Horn did not have any resistance to the parasitism.
Also, straighten your waist so that the rodents can settle on your back to complete their parasitism.
"Whether it's triggered, you can get a lot of attribute improvements, but you have to be careful because your intelligence continues to decrease."
After Li Fan finished his instructions, Resentment Horn jumped into the mountain forest.
"Three monsters are looking for rodents, isn't it enough?"
Eudora asked curiously.
"No, the time when rodents will overrun should come soon."
"Then what should we do next? Are we ready to resist?"
Eudora asked.
"If it doesn't take the initiative to show up, it will be very difficult to reach it. Now I want to track Jueyinlong to see if there is any possibility of capturing it."
Li Fan expressed his thoughts.
"Okay, I'll look at the map and it's closer to the Abandoned King's Capital from here."
Eudora gave instructions and the team moved forward in the night.
Among the ultimate host mutation branches, Jueyinlong is definitely the strongest one.
Once captured successfully, the monster team will have a top technical consultant on this mutation route.
In terms of combat effectiveness, Jue Yinlong is at least as powerful as the Seven Star Ancient Dragon.
The only problem now is that we must formulate a capture plan without any omissions.
Otherwise, once the Silver Dragon is seriously injured and escapes, Elgaard will be in bad luck after a while.
The full moon hung in the sky, and the team, which was marching among the ruins, soon arrived in front of the dilapidated castle.
Eudora flew into the sky, swinging the silkworm silk to pull Li Fan and Di Lu, floating high in the sky opposite each other.
"Why aren't you in the castle? Meow."
Di Lu held up the telescope and observed for a moment, then said somewhat depressedly.
"Jue Yinlong only occasionally appears in the castle, and his absence is the norm."
"Well, regardless of whether it's a public camp or a stronghold, it's said that the abandoned Royal Capital Castle is the home of Jue Yinlong. As long as you enter, you will be hunted by the opponent."
Dilu informed.
"That's just a rumor with a legendary nature. The Jue Silver Dragon really lives in it all year round, let alone what it eats. The surrounding area has long been banned on a large scale."
Li Fan explained.
If an ancient dragon sticks to one area for a long time, the forbidden area designated by the guild will never be as small as a royal capital castle.
"That's it, meow."
After searching for two hours, the team came to the ground to rest without any results.
"Then let's go to the deeper iceberg area."
Eudora said, calibrating on the map.
"There shouldn't be any over the iceberg. Let's go to the swamp and have a look."
Li Fan gave different opinions.
Ouch!
Just as the two were communicating, a dragon roar echoed through the night sky, and the team raised their heads to watch.
It was discovered that it was a male fire dragon, roaring in flight.
Eudora Dilu immediately looked at Li Fan.
"You want to suck my blood. Are you tired of living? Is this what it is after?"
Li Fan originally didn't notice the target that the Fire Dragon was chasing.
But through the content of the roar and the red light spots flying in the sky, a spherical rodent swarm was quickly located.
Boom! Boom!
The fireball streaked across the night sky, and the rodent swarms quickly moved left and right, passing by.
"It seems that some monsters still have some methods to deal with the invasion of rodents."
Li Fan, who looked up and watched, agreed.
"Sure enough, ordinary monsters will not accept this kind of thing to stay."
Eudora said with emotion.
"Uh! What is that, meow!"
Following the direction pointed by Dilu's cat paw, the two of them turned to look. In the long night, a pair of wings with magical pink wings were waving in the wind.
Whoosh~
A slender shadow crossed the ground, and the dragon-shaped figure instantly turned black and disappeared into the night sky.
When the figure accompanied by the black mist appeared again, it was already above the male fire dragon.
The fire dragon clan is extremely sensitive to air currents. When they noticed something strange coming from above, they immediately turned around and kicked out their hooked claws.
Whoosh~
A thin black mist dissipated, and the male fire dragon's attack failed, and it continued flying to its correct posture. Suddenly, a crisp sound came from its neck.
Creak~
This is the sound made when the carapace is pierced by fangs.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
The male fire dragon waved its wings with all its strength, trying to escape from the opponent's sharp teeth.
But apart from making it fly, it has no effect.
Gradually, the flapping of the wings weakened until it stopped.
The male fire dragon's head tilted and hung in the opponent's beak-shaped mouth.
The dragon-shaped figure quickly fell and landed on the top of the tallest stone pillar in the castle.
Countless scarlet light spots spread and climbed up from the surface, reflecting the abandoned castle in red.
Puff~ Puff~
The dense flapping of bat wings sounded from all directions, and more than a dozen swarms of rodents flew in.
"Is this Jueyinlong?"
Eudora said with surprise.
cunning, fierce, strange
She felt that the other party was more evil than described in the legend.
"That move that seems to be teleportation is a bit difficult to do."
Li Fan considered the difficulty of capturing it.
Jueyinlong spread its wings, and the body of the male fire dragon that was holding its neck was revealed.
The gathering swarm of rodents swarmed forward and quickly occupied the body surface.
Not long after, Jueyinlong let go, and the body of the male fire dragon fell downwards, followed by a large number of rodents.
He turned his head and raised one wing to cover it, spitting out the fragments of the male fire dragon's carapace from his mouth. Jueyinlong looked down and watched coldly.
Ouch! A sharp roar came from the castle.
"What did Jue Yinlong say?"
Dilu asked eagerly.
"vulgar."
Li Fan thought for a moment and gave the translation in surprise.
