Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

As expected, Lieyan also chose to join.

She was a person who liked adventure and self-challenging.

When she heard that there was a super strong forbidden monster that was very likely to be the "world's strongest" level that she needed to investigate, she agreed without thinking.

Fengying had boasted to her about hunting red dragons, and the set of [Dragon Pattern] also made her jealous.

However, compared with the equipment, what she really enjoyed was the excitement of challenging a strong enemy, not to mention that the monster was very likely to be the real source of the unrest in recent years.

No matter from which aspect, there was no reason to refuse.

On the contrary, Amos seemed to want to persuade her several times.

In his opinion, his strength had reached the top as he was about to enter old age. The other two hunters were young and strong, and there was still room for improvement, but there was still a clear gap in potential compared to Lieyan.

The latter was promoted to eight stars at the age of twenty-five or twenty-six, which was not worse than Gordon. If she was given a few more years, perhaps another nine-star master would be born.

There was really no need to bet on her on this extremely dangerous mission.

However, he didn't say these words in the end.

Lieyan really shouldn't go to "die", so who should?

While Amos was silent, the guild leader took out the metal box that they were familiar with.

"Liyan, open it and take a look." The guild leader pushed the box in front of Lieyan.

She had just come from the Land of Fire and had not yet experienced the test of the evil eye.

Lieyan opened the box with a question mark on her face, stared at the evil eye for two seconds, and then came back to her senses with a start, and "snapped!" The cover of the box.

"What is this?" Lieyan, who usually doesn't speak often, squeezed out a sentence from his throat.

"The target you need to investigate this time is the eye crystal of the 'black dragon'." The guild leader stared at her, "How about it, there is still a chance to quit now."

Lieyan trembled all over, but not because of fear, but excitement.

She grinned, revealing a dangerous smile, "If there is a chance, it is okay to hunt it directly, right?"

The guild leader picked up a large book and smashed it hard on her head.

"Don't have that idea. That's not an opponent that one person or even an elite team can handle.

Save your life and bring back the news." The guild leader scolded.

Lieyan touched his head and shrugged, indicating that he knew.

"In this way, the personnel of the reconnaissance team have been determined."

The guild leader put down the book and said in a deep voice: "Next, I will tell you about the information about the 'black dragon'.

This information is top secret, so be careful not to leak it."

The four members of the reconnaissance team nodded repeatedly.

"There are many legends about the black dragon, and some of them are even widely known to ordinary people, but everyone just treats them as myths.

The information handed down from the ancient era is too illusory, such as burning the world in a few days, and the authenticity cannot be verified.

Let's focus on the near future. The ancient kingdom of Shulet, which was prosperous a thousand years ago, should all be known to you, right?"

The three hunters except Amos shook their heads.

"." The guild leader's face darkened, but he continued to explain patiently: "It is different from the illusory ancient era.

In the academic world, the ancient Shulet Dynasty is considered to be the same era civilization as the modern era. This prosperous dynasty once covered most of the continent.

Archaeological discoveries show that they inherited part of the legacy of ancient civilizations, and their technology is quite advanced, not inferior to, or even surpassing, the modern era.

And the capital of such a powerful kingdom was attacked by a black dragon one day a thousand years ago.

The prosperous kingdom turned into ruins, and the extremely powerful Shulet Kingdom was split into two kingdoms, the East and the West.

That is, the 'Wild Kingdom' and the 'River Kingdom' today." (Note)

"Oh——!" Lieyan and the other two suddenly realized.

Although their cultural knowledge is not very good, they still know several kingdoms in the old continent.

"Investigations and archaeological excavations on the outskirts of the ancient capital of Shuret have proven that it is a city larger and more prosperous than East Dorma.

But even so, it still fell in an instant, and now it has become the nest of the black dragon.

There is the "Legend of the Black Dragon" left by the red poet as evidence:

Countless flying dragons are driving, and the legend begins.

Countless flesh is torn, bones and blood are crushed and sucked dry, it will come.

Water is steaming, dust is burning, and steel is melting.

The wind is surging, the grass and trees are barren, and the fire is rising again.

Its name is-Milaporeas.

Its name is-Fateful Battle.

Its name is-Inescapable Disaster.

If you have a throat, roar wildly, if you have ears, listen, if you have a heart, pray quickly.

Milaporeas, the world is overturned, and its name roars across the universe.

The world is overturned, its name, its name!" The guild leader recited passionately.

"Uh" Ah Hun raised his hand, "Well, sir, let's put history education aside, can we talk about something more practical first?"

"Hmm!" Lieyan agreed.

The guild leader's forehead was throbbing, "I'm telling you this to make you realize the danger of the black dragon!

I want you to stop thinking about 'rewards' and 'challenging strong enemies' and put your life first, understand?!"

The three people who were scolded nodded repeatedly.

"Huh——!"

The guild leader let out a heavy breath, glared at the three people, and then continued: "Gordon of the Silver Edge Hunting Group once found the skull of a black dragon in a ruin in Lingfeng.

Based on the size of the skull and the body proportions of the forbidden red dragon, the size of the black dragon should be roughly between 40 and 50 meters.

We have also obtained some black dragon scales.

Scholars from the Ancient Dragon Observation Bureau and the Scribes Team found that a large amount of metal material, even fragments of human weapons, was melted into these scales.

The addition of these metals makes the scales of the black dragon very tough, and ordinary swords can't even leave scratches.

At the same time, this also proves that the black dragon has a very high IQ and the ability to use high-temperature flames.

These two points are consistent with the historical records of black dragons burning cities."

"High-temperature flames, an unexpectedly simple ability." Lieyan whispered to himself.

This is a very critical piece of information, which will have a key impact on their choice of armor, protective stones and decorative beads.

"Also, in history, a dragon man hunted a black dragon and made a giant sword with its horns and bones.

The evil eye used to test you came from that giant sword."

The guild leader looked at Amos and said, "Amos brought back the fragments of the giant sword. After research, we confirmed that the material of the black dragon contains extremely amazing dragon attribute energy.

It proves that its bloodline as a 'dragon' is very pure, which means two possibilities.

One is that it also has the ability to manipulate dragon attribute energy and has a strong resistance to dragon attribute energy.

The other is that dragon attribute energy is Its weakness is very effective against it.

This is also one of the main goals of your operation this time, to find out its weakness attributes and collect information for the subsequent crusade. "

"I understand." After thinking for a moment, Amos nodded and said: "For this operation, fire-resistant armor and stone guards are necessary.

In terms of weapons, I suggest using weapons with different attributes. In addition to the dragon attribute, it may have other weaknesses. "

Note: I didn't find any specific information about the East and West Shuret Kingdoms. These two names are from the encyclopedia. If there is any difference with the official settings, please point it out.
