Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

What exactly is this so-called "light of life"? Is it some kind of natural phenomenon, some kind of object, or some kind of creature?

Gordon and others had no clue at all.

At that time, Gordon wanted to call the ancient dragon man and ask for details, but the ancient dragon man left too quickly and could not stay at all, and he could not be found again.

This incident left a deep impression on Gordon.

At that time, everyone was busy dealing with the Molten Mountain Dragon and did not have much time to think about this. After the Molten Mountain Dragon was solved, this information was naturally forgotten by everyone.

Looking back now, this may be a very crucial clue, and his intuition also told him that this "light of life" is the key to the restlessness of the ancient dragons.

However, this kind of speculation that cannot find the cause and cannot understand the consequences is meaningless.

It's just a word, not even a direction of investigation.

For a moment, the only sounds left in the treetop camp were the "meow, meow, meow" exchanges between Xue Xue and Detel. Finally, it was Hayata who broke the silence among the three of them.

"We can't get any results by making random guesses like this. Let's start from two angles. Tomorrow we will go to the Yuzu clan's clan and ask the elders among them. Maybe we can find out something. .

The other thing is to track down the ancient dragon that is suspected to be a steel dragon, hoping to get some clues from it. "

"Well, that's all we can do." Gordon's heart was slightly heavy.

I originally thought that the so-called "Light of Life" was only related to Laoshan Dragon, but now it seems that it is not that simple.

That night, the forest ushered in heavy rain again.

The continuous rain covered the sky, and everything around became dark and blurry.

The lush canopy of the big trees could not completely block the intrusion of rain. Even the bonfires in the camp were extinguished, and Gordon and others had to hide in leather tents.

I spent the night listening to the sound of raindrops hitting the tent surface.

The heavy rain continued until the second half of the night. It was not until the sun rose that the rain stopped completely, and the warm sunshine returned to the forest.

After a night of heavy rain, everything in the forest became wet. Every branch and leaf was washed extremely clean, leaving no trace of dust behind.

The air was moist and fresh, and not a single cloud could be seen in the sky, which was frighteningly blue.

The hunters who got out of the tent stretched their limbs and took a few deep breaths. They suddenly felt that all the depression accumulated in the heavy rain at work had been exhaled in one breath.

"What a beautiful weather!" Gordon took a deep breath again, as if savoring the unique earthy smell in the air after a heavy rain.

Hayata seemed a little worried, "If heavy rain of this level comes every one or two days for more than a month, will it really not cause flooding?"

Alva was about to answer her question, but Xuxue beat him to it.

"No! It's just a regional rain that only occurs in the western part of the ancient forest. This kind of ancient forest has a thick layer of humus that can store a lot of water, just like a sponge!

And this side is close to the sea, so excess rainwater will enter the ground and rivers and be discharged into the sea. "

"As Miss Xuanxuan said, the problem is not big in the short term, but if it takes a long time, the impact on the local ecological environment will be obvious." Alva added:

"Plants that don't like humidity will gradually die, and the same goes for animals. Those that can't adapt will die or migrate away. Some tall trees will be replaced by relatively low mangroves with many aerial roots, and they may eventually evolve into mangroves.

However, the amount of rainfall in this short period of time is also too great. I am worried that many animals and plants will not be able to adapt and die in large areas before the adjustment is completed.

In that case, it may also cause ecological disaster. "

Xuanxuan scratched her head, "This will happen if it rains all the time. It rarely rains so heavily in my Shuhai area. When there is too much rain during the rainy season, some tree roots will be soaked and the trees will get sick."

"That's a lot of problems." Gordon tightened the belt of his armor. "It seems that after finding that guy, we have to try to talk to it. At least we can't let it rain like this."

Pig Chop put on the huge hood of Laoshan Chinchilla Armor and looked at him, "How are you going to talk about meow?"

Gordon put the [Red Wing] sword leaning on the weapon rack behind his back, "It might not be very friendly."

After completing a series of preparations such as dressing up at the treetop camp, the four people and four cats set off on the pterosaur, and under the guidance of the two Detel, headed for the Fish Basket Clan's station.

A few years ago, the Yulu tribe's settlement was destroyed by an angry Tyrannosaurus that crossed the sea, causing heavy casualties among the tribe.

Due to fear, they lived in various shelters in the forest for a period of time.

But having lived by the sea for generations, they could not abandon the ocean in the end. Under the leadership of the clan leader Yu Gu, the Fish Basket clan returned to the coast and rebuilt a new home.

Considering safety, they abandoned their original location in the open reef area and found a cliff by the sea.

The cliffs are surrounded by dense reefs, which can effectively block attacks from large monsters in the sea. When the tide is high, fishing nets are pulled up between the rocks and fish baskets are set up. After the tide is low, sea fish can be easily harvested.

The depression at the bottom of the cliff forms a rather spacious cave that can shelter them from wind and rain.

The only drawback is that there is no land in the cave, only the sea surface, which gives the Deters of the Fish Basket clan a headache.

After all, although they are good at fishing in the water, they are terrestrial species after all and cannot sleep on the sea.

Later, Aziz's hunting cat partner Yuzi learned this when he came back to visit relatives. He remembered that the people in the survey team had the skills to lay wooden piles on the seaside and build trestles and docks.

He ran back and asked for help.

The commander-in-chief sent a team of craftsmen over to guide the Fish Basket clan to build a stable platform in the seaside cave.

They also taught the Yulu people to fill in a large number of stones between the rocks outside the cave to form a structure similar to a breakwater, which effectively reduced the impact of wind and waves on the living area inside the cave.

The Fish Creel clan thus built a new settlement that was safe, convenient, and sheltered from wind and waves.

Because of this incident, many grateful fish basket tribe Detel went to work in the stars, bringing almost inexhaustible fresh catch to the star stronghold.

The relationship between the two parties has even become closer than that of the insect cage clan living next to each other.

It is precisely because of these kindnesses that when Gordon and his entourage arrived at the new territory of the Fish Basket Clan, they received an extremely warm reception from the little guys.

Various freshly caught seafood are simply processed and cleaned, then placed in a huge iron pot and cooked together with alocasia cut into large pieces.

Unable to refuse the fish basket clan's kindness, Gordon and others sat around the big pot. As the pot boiled, the unique aroma of seafood hit their faces.

Xuanxiao, who had never eaten like this before, stared at the pot lid and kept sipping her saliva. If Anxier was here, he would probably knock her.

"Why do you think this cooking method looks familiar?" Gordon asked Hayata in a low voice, "Isn't it said that the fish basket people are used to grilling food?

Also, this pot must have been made by Xingchen’s blacksmith, right? "

Hayata raised her eyebrows, "Well, it reminds me of the seafood stew in Moga Village."

The leader of the Fish Basket Clan, Fishbone, has very pointed ears. He heard the exchange between the two, and said in the common language of the Old World, which was not very standard: "It's similar to what Mr. Aziz taught us, meow!"

"Yes, Meow! It's delicious, Meow!" The Deters nearby also nodded quickly in response.

"."

This accent.

Gordon laughed dryly, "Az, do you come here often?"

"Yes, Meow. Mr. Aziz comes here to fish almost two days a week, Meow! It seems that the past two months have been quite busy, so there are less Meow here.

Ah, forget it, meow, Mr. Aziz seems to have said that he cannot tell other people about this matter. "

"Hehehe"
