Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

The mission of contacting the beast-tangled tribe was completed smoothly.

Not only did they establish communication and gain the friendship of the Beast Tangle tribe, Gordon and the others also received some "Rescue Wolf Smoke" as a gift.

I don’t know what these dark lumps are made of, and they have a bad smell.

After sniffing the pork chop carefully, he said that in addition to the rosin of cedar and sulfur, there seemed to be ice jackal feces.

Gordon had the urge to throw it away, but finally kept it.

To put it bluntly, this thing is the "flare" of the beast entangling tribe. As long as it is lit, a conspicuous smoke column will rise.

When the nearby Beast Tangle tribe sees it, they will immediately rush over to help.

Although, for a monster that can make Gordon and the others feel troublesome, even if they call the Beast Tamers over, there is a high probability that it will be useless.

But after all, it symbolizes the "friendship of the beast-tangled tribe". They all like these cute and powerful little guys, so naturally they are reluctant to throw them away.

In addition to the frowning "Rescue Wolf Smoke", the pork chop also has some new gains.

The Beast Tangle tribe taught it how to call ice wolves, befriend them, and even ride ice wolves.

I haven't really tested the pork chop yet. I plan to try it in the snow forest when I have time. It should be similar to the method used by the insect cage clan in the ancient tree forest to control the thief dragon?

If it succeeds, it will be easier to move in the snow in the future.

However, is there really an ice jackal that can carry Gordon?

Unlike the three Gordons who returned to the Yuechen stronghold in high spirits and with glowing faces, Hayata and his party, who came back a day later than them, all had pale faces.

I am tired and even colder.

The first thing they did after returning to Yuechen Stronghold was to go to Grandma Mao's place for a real hot meal, and then got into the hot spring pool for a good soak.

Finally, the coldness that penetrated into the bone marrow was removed.

The two groups of people met in the hot spring tavern, which had just been topped off and even the doors and windows had not yet been installed, and exchanged their experiences.

Gordon also showed off a photo of them with the Beast Tangle Clan and the grilled ice fish dragon meat that was bigger than the table.

Now even the good-tempered Hayata couldn't help it and rolled Gordon's eyes several times.

In any case, the three key tasks compiled by the Ecological Research Institute have been successfully completed, and we should be able to have a few days of leisure before new tasks are assigned.

Although Master Yuanye is old, he has a restless temper, and so does Ai Bo.

The two of them dived into the information pile of the Institute of Ecology, trying to find some clues about the "special stones".

Hayata plans to return to the Star Stronghold.

The jade of the Wind Floating Dragon has been sent to the processing room together with other materials immediately. With the leader of the second phase of the team with superior craftsmanship, the highest quality ice-resistant protective stone can be created soon.

After getting the protective stone, she will take the nearest airship back to the stars, and then she will be able to pick up her precious daughter.

After in-depth study of the hunters' reports, scholars from the Yuechen Ecological Research Institute named the two special individual monsters that Hayata and others encountered as "Frost Wing Wind Drifting Dragon" and "Frost Blade Ice Tooth Dragon" respectively.

Frostwing is almost turning into a protective stone, let’s not mention it for now.

However, the scholars headed by the leader of the third phase of the regiment showed great interest in the Frost Blade Ice Tooth Dragon that possesses super-standard frost energy.

Ice-toothed dragons are also distributed in the Old World, but similar individuals have never appeared.

The reason for this is worth exploring.

So, they issued an investigation mission to recruit high-ranking hunters to conduct a deeper investigation.

The person who took over the task was Jean. He was born in the snow-capped mountains of Frasia and had many experiences hunting Icetooth Dragons. He was the most suitable candidate in the eyes of the scholars.

After Feng Ying heard about this, she shook her head and said that it was over.

The leaders of the third phase of the group were afraid that they could only analyze the reasons for the mutation of the old guy from the materials.

Two days later, Hayata finally got the ice-resistant stone she had been thinking about day and night for a long time.

It just so happened that on this day, the airship traveling between the two strongholds arrived at Yuechen. However, this time along with the airship came a message from the stars.

bad news.

The previous headquarters of Yuechen Stronghold was an empty space with only a table.

When the wind blows, map files fly everywhere.

Now we have finally set up a huge tent. Although it still looks shabby, at least it is not in the open air and there is a stove for heating.

Gordon thinks it's good, don't build any buildings, that's it.

"Everyone is here, so I won't talk nonsense. The Star Stronghold sent a summoning order. There was an unusual monster commotion there, and there were even many undiscovered sub-species of monsters.

Xingchen is currently short of manpower and needs to mobilize some hunters to help. "Gordon got straight to the point.

"What should we do about the investigation of the eternal frost and frozen soil?" The leader of the third phase of the regiment raised his hand and asked.

"All manpower will not be deployed, and investigation operations with low priority will be suspended."

The leader of the third phase group nodded gently, "I understand."

"How many people need to be transferred back? I need to adjust the arrangements for all aspects of work." The material squad leader also hurriedly raised the question.

"The Commander-in-Chief means that there should be as many as possible without affecting the basic operation of Yuechen Stronghold."

The squad leader of the supplies squad scratched his head full of dreadlocks, grabbed another piece of paper, wrote and made some calculations, and then said:

“Yuechen Stronghold currently has seven high-ranking hunters and twenty-five three- to five-star elite hunters.

If the exploration of high-risk areas is suspended, most of the high-level hunters can be transferred back. First of all, Gordon, you have to stay. After all, you are also the person in charge of Yuechen! "

".Okay, I'll stay."

"In addition to you personally taking charge of Yuechen, at least one high-level hunter is needed as a mobile force that can be dispatched. Other high-level hunters can temporarily transfer back to the stars."

Gordon thought for a while, "Jean set off yesterday to the Frozen Canyon to carry out the mission of hunting and investigating the Frostblade Icetooth Dragon. It would be too troublesome to send someone to call him back, so he and I will stay behind. Chen."

"Of course. For the remaining elite hunters, at least half should be left behind. The collection of food, furs, various building materials, and escorts for the transportation team are the minimum requirements."

"Well, then let's leave three teams behind, and the rest will return to the Star Stronghold with the five high-ranking hunters." Gordon nodded and made the decision.

It's not a business transaction, so there's no need to bargain.

"Of course, there are also the editors. While Yuechen is suspending various investigation operations, most of the editors can return to the stars to help." Gordon added.

"I'll arrange the list." Alva nodded with a confused look.

Should I return to the stars? Or stay in Yuechen? It's more free to stay here, but the investigation activities are suspended and there is nothing to do. Many subspecies of monsters have appeared in the New World?

really! I'd better go back!

"By the way, there is one more thing." Gordon looked at the supplies squad leader again, "During this period, the construction of the Yuechen stronghold can also be postponed, and the work focus can be transferred to food acquisition and storage."

"Ah? Why?"

Gordon shook the letter in his hand, "The New World has experienced an abnormal cooling, and the star stronghold has also been affected.

Due to monster commotion and crop failure at the Plant Growth Research Institute, the food reserves in Star Stronghold are declining at an unsettling rate. "

The monitor of the material squad and the person in charge of the supply station were a little panicked after hearing this, and they ran around the table.

After taking the letter and glancing at it, the supplies squad leader suddenly burst out screaming, "The food reserve of Star Stronghold has dropped to 60%?! Are you kidding me! How long has it been!"

no! I have to go back and check it out! Yuechen also has to find a way to support some supplies.

Tomorrow, everyone will go hunting for me! "
