Squatting in front of the completely charred corpse, Hilda was silent for a long time.
They are the best of their generation. They have drank together and hunted together, so they can naturally be regarded as friends.
"Do you want to collect his body for him?" asked a high-ranking hunter who was traveling with him.
"No need."
Hilda shook her head, "There is no one in the world who knows how to worship this guy. There are people all over the continent who hate him to the core.
This is the burial place he chose for himself, let him stay here. "
After saying that, Hilda stood up and said, "Release the peregrine falcon and inform the guild that Black Eagle has been confirmed dead. The ancient dragon is not in the dragon's nest on the peak. Judging from the traces, it should not have been back for a while.
We have enough supplies to stay here for about a week, and after that, we have to evacuate. "
The peregrine falcon was released.
Hilda felt that the peregrine falcon seemed to be particularly panicked and anxious as it flew away.
She raised her eyebrows and looked up at the starry night sky.
A crimson comet was constantly breaking through the sound barrier and rumbling in.
The upper-level hunters drew their weapons and stood ready.
"Huhu, should I say good luck or bad luck?"
Hilda threw a ghost pill into her mouth, the thick dragon arrow streaked across the ground, and the sparks lit up the fuse. She filled the bow and aimed at the falling evil star.
Pork Chop carefully fiddled with its specimen, and fixed a butterfly with its internal organs removed and dried thoroughly in the shade on a soft cushion in the wooden box.
Gordon came over curiously, "Is this...that kind of butterfly?"
"Don't touch meow!" Pig Chop slapped away Gordon's paw, which was stretched out to pinch the butterfly's wings, "It's very brittle, meow, it will break!"
Gordon smiled dryly and took back his hand, and Pork Chop carefully closed the lid of the wooden box.
"So, where did you get this?" Gordon asked curiously.
"When the black thunder wolf ran away, a few butterflies had no time to fly back to meow, so they were swooped down by meow."
"I see, is it a cat's instinct?"
"That's not meow! You can see that this kind of insect is very precious, meow!"
"Really, so what's the saying about this kind of butterfly?" Gordon asked with interest.
An Xil, who was reading on the side, closed the book and explained for Pig Chop: "After we returned to the Dragon Sense ship, we asked scholars. A scholar who studies insects recognized that it was called 'Dragon Eating Insect'. Cherish the variety.
They like to feed on plants rich in dragon energy, such as dragon-slaying fruits, and sometimes appear near the bones of ancient dragons.
However, it is said that this is the first time that such a large-scale appearance and inhabiting of some kind of monster has occurred. "
"Is it a material that can be used to make equipment?" Gordon's thinking was very "realistic".
Ancier choked, but still replied: "Yes, it is said to have the effect of endowing, or strengthening the dragon attribute energy of the equipment, and it is a very rare and precious material."
"Huh? No wonder the pork chop is so precious."
Pork Chop turned his face.
A narrow and subtle smile also appeared on Anxier's face, "That's not for this reason. I plan to give the pork chop as a gift, and I also asked someone specifically about the techniques for making butterfly specimens."
Gordon got excited, "Giving it to someone? Do you mean giving it to other Ellu?"
"Yeah." Anhil smiled and nodded.
"Hey hey hey!"
The corners of Gordon's mouth grew wider and wider.
"Who should I give it to? Let me guess, Pork Chop has been in contact with Elu a lot lately." At this point, his face froze, "Uh, fork? No way, he's a boy too!"
"No meow!" Pig Chop screamed.
An Xil also rolled his eyes, "What kind of random guesses are you making?"
"So who are you sending it to?" Gordon was anxious.
Pork Chop turned his face away again.
Ancier knew that Pork Chop was just embarrassed, but he didn't mind if Gordon knew this, so he chuckled and said, "Give it to Dianthus."
"Dianthus?"
Gordon repeated the name and felt it sounded familiar, but couldn't remember who it was. "Which one is it from?"
Pork chop: "."
An Xil said angrily: "What kind of memory do you have, Xianglan's sister, I remember her even though I haven't seen her with my own eyes."
"Oooh!"
Gordon recalled the banquet in the desert. When Hayata and Hayata first arrived in Lockark, they met the Ellu named Dianthus, who worked as a tour guide at the Tourism Association in Lockark.
"You have good taste! I remember that she is a pretty cute Elu, and she has a good personality, yes, better than Pandan."
"Meow"
The pork chop is squirming.
Gordon was about to joke a little more when the door to the room was suddenly pushed open, and it was Yuna from the cross team who came in. She was always jumping up and down, but her expression at this time was quite serious.
"There is news about that guy. The investigation captain called us over."
After Gordon and the others heard this, they immediately stood up and followed Lan towards the deck.
Most of the hunters on the boat, including Agaxi, had already arrived. When the captain of the investigation team saw that the three high-ranking hunters had arrived, Ubei said directly:
"An urgent message came from the guild. Scarlet is fierce. Sky Comet Dragon returned to the Dragon Nest at the peak four days ago, and a fierce battle broke out with the high-ranking hunter team that had just arrived there.
The superior hunters finally repelled the Sky Comet Dragon. After the Sky Comet Dragon flew away from the dragon's nest, its current whereabouts are unknown. The hunters' casualties are unknown, but they sent out a distress signal and were observed by the guild observers hidden at the foot of the mountain.
Scholars speculate that the injured Tian Huilong would not have gone too far, and was probably in the Yiqun Ridge area. "
When the hunters heard this, their faces turned ugly.
Although monster hunting is the most dangerous profession in the world, and casualties are commonplace, it will make people feel uncomfortable if they experience this kind of thing several times.
"The team of high-ranking hunters climbed to the dragon's nest on the top of the mountain, but after just experiencing the battle, they were obviously unable to climb down again, so they sent out a distress signal.
We are the closest team and the only team that can fly to the dragon's lair. The guild ordered us to go to the rescue urgently.
During the flight to the dragon's nest, we may be attacked by the Sky Comet Dragon at any time, so please be ready for battle at all times. "
"yes!"
No one objected to the order.
It is the same as seeing a distress signal in the wild and rushing to the rescue. Not to mention the instructions from the guild and the captain of the investigation team, even if there is not, the hunters who heard about the matter will definitely try their best to rush over to help.
After the order was issued, the entire Dragon Sense ship immediately entered a battle-ready state.
Special mechanisms strengthened the connection between the main ship and the two auxiliary ships. The boilers on the three ships were running at full power, and the huge propellers accelerated from slow to fast.
The huge airship slowly climbed up.
The continuous-fire artillery and heavy-duty crossbows have been loaded with cannonballs and crossbow shells, and the steam loading of the two huge dragon-shooting guns at the bow has also been completed ahead of schedule.
This is a waste of fuel and will also reduce the life of the dragon gun to a certain extent, but given the current situation, we can't take that into account.
The rising dragon consciousness ship breaks through the sea of clouds like a giant whale floating on the bottom of the sea.
As far as the eye can see, there is a pure blue sky, and the solitary peak that runs through the sky and the earth like a pillar of the sky is already in sight.
The captain of the investigation team stood at the bow of the ship. He put down his telescope and waved his arms.
"The height is not high enough, keep rising!"
