Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 100: Hunters from Yanhuo Village, the trace of the Yanwanglong (4k)

Just as the ancient tree was developing steadily in a new direction, deep in the wasteland was the giant anthill.

This time, the investigation team sent a total of 16 hunters and their respective followers, plus four editors, to go deep into the Great Anthill Wasteland to search for the location of the Flame King Dragon.

At night, the evening breeze took away the last bit of heat from the wasteland, and the temperature of the entire Big Anthill Wasteland dropped sharply. The creatures that lived in the wasteland all year round returned to their nests early, huddled in the nests and tried their best to maintain their body temperature.

The members of the investigation team gathered around the campfire and chatted. Compared with other areas of the Great Anthill Wasteland, the temperature here did not drop as dramatically at night because of the existence of the Flame King Dragon.

As an ancient dragon of fire, the Flame King Dragon would raise the temperature of that area just by staying there without deliberately restraining its own power.

During the day, if an uninformed person accidentally enters the area where the Flame Dragon is located, he may even have the illusion that the weather is extremely hot today.

"Hey, Falcon! Are there many of these toothhounds in your hometown?"

The double-blade user Falcon, who was smoothing the fur of the Fanghound, looked up at the person asking the question and nodded gently.

"A lot. The hounds are docile and loyal by nature. In my hometown, they are good partners of every hunter and are indispensable helpers when we hunt."

Hearing Falcon's words, the Fanghound with the cross pattern on its forehead gently licked the back of its master's hand and placed its head on his crossed legs.

"Eh? Don't you have any Felynx there?"

"Yes, of course. In our village, there are professionals responsible for training Fanghounds. The Felynx also have special teachers to train their followers."

"Wow! So, the hunters in your village can use both Felynx followers and Fanghounds at the same time? Hunting would be a lot easier this way, right?" The hunter said with some envy after hearing Falcon's answer.

Then his gaze fell on the quietly lying hound, his eyes shining.

You have to know that since leaving the base and coming to this area, Falcon has basically been riding on the Fang Hound when traveling.

This small tooth beast creature is not only extremely powerful, but also has excellent physical strength and endurance. No matter what kind of terrain it encounters, it can keep up with the team as long as it carries a falcon.

Even on flat roads, you still have enough energy to continue sprinting.

It can be said that after such a long time, everyone was exhausted due to the long-term hiking and searching in this area, but Falcon still looked relaxed, which was in sharp contrast with the other hunters.

Having such a partner can greatly alleviate the fatigue before hunting and allow the hunter to have more physical strength to fight.

Falcon just smiled gently at the hunter's words.

For the hunters in Yanhuo Village, having two followers does make daily hunting tasks much easier.

However, the nightmare that occurs every fifty years is always a sword hanging over the heads of everyone in Yanhuo Village.

Every time a hundred dragons march at night, it brings huge losses to the village.

This is also because even though with the help of the two types of followers, the hunters can protect the safety of the village to a greater extent, but Yanhuo Village has still not been able to develop after all these years.

"Speaking of falcons, is this kind of tooth hound difficult to breed? I had never even heard of it before I met you."

"No, the training success rate of the Fanghounds is about the same as the training pass rate of the Felynx. The reason you haven't heard of it is probably because my village is too remote. Even if there are extra Fanghounds, they are basically given priority to Elgard across the sea."

"I see." The hunter nodded thoughtfully, then sighed.

"Alas, it's a pity to lose such a good hunting partner. How great would it be if we could find a Fanghound in the New World? Even a substitute would be fine. This would greatly improve our mobility."

"Actually, it's not impossible." At this time, the one-handed user who had been listening to the two people's conversation silently suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of several people around.

There was no way, Falcon's Fang Hound was indeed too dazzling when traveling, and they were all very interested in this kind of dog that could serve as a mount, assist in hunting, and was very loyal.

The eyes of the group fell on him. He stiffened his body for a moment, then coughed and said, "Have you forgotten those Fire Dragon Detel warriors of the Ancient Tree Fire Dragon Clan in the stronghold?"

After the hand master said this, everyone immediately understood what he meant.

Each of the Detel warriors who called themselves Fire Dragon Detel was equipped with their own thief dragon.

Those guys who were usually sneaky and aggressive not only became very obedient under the training of the Fire Dragon Detel, but they even no longer showed any timidity when hunting.

Judging from its current performance, although it is not as human-like as Falcon's Fang Hound, it also has unique fighting skills.

But these can all be acquired through training.

In other words, those thief dragons that they have always looked down upon actually have the qualifications of the Fang Hound?
The hunters were excited, but then they remembered that the thief dragons in the stronghold, who were kept in specially designated fences, ignored everyone except the fire dragon Detel.

Even when researchers tried to feed them, they would just eat silently without even glancing at them.

Can the investigation team really tame such a thief dragon?

Seeing the hunters sitting back down one by one, One-handed rolled his eyes and coughed loudly on purpose to attract everyone's attention again. Then he said in a tone of disappointment, "I know what you are thinking. It's nothing more than that we ourselves can't communicate with the thief dragon. We can't even take the first step of taming it, let alone the subsequent training, right?"

"You know, but you still ask."

Everyone nodded.

"Hey, can't you use your brains? Don't you think about who these thief dragons belong to?" The one-handed user put down the kettle, with an expression that said he really can't do anything to you.

"Whose else could it belong to? It must belong to the Fire Dragon Detels." The hunter, who was wiping his battle axe with all his muscles, snorted coldly.

"If I say you're stupid, then don't interrupt me!" The One-Handed Master retorted, then looked at the hunters who were all in deep thought, and continued, "Although we can't tame the Thief Dragon, the Fire Dragon Deter can. Don't forget, we are allies with them!"

"We understand! You mean we can entrust the fire dragons Detel to help us train a group of thief dragons! Right?"

The one-handed user nodded and spread his hands, saying, "See, it's such a simple thing. With the help of the fire dragons Deter, isn't it easy to tame the thief dragon? As for the subsequent thief dragon training plan, isn't Falcon here? When the time comes, refer to the training content of their village, and then we can come up with a feasible training method, right?"

"Oh~"

Some people have already started clapping excitedly.

That makes sense!!
At the outermost part of the temporary camp, the swordsman master listened to the entire conversation. He turned his head to look at the dragon hunter beside him who had already begun to ponder.

Although there are scholars in the first group, the brains of the first group is actually this taciturn but powerful dragon hunter.

"What do you think?"

"It's very feasible. After this mission is completed, we can hold a meeting to discuss it. The young scholar from the second-term group who took over the research class may be able to improve this idea." The dragon hunter responded. The young dragon scholar from the second-term group not only arranged the research class properly in this short period of time, but also thoroughly sorted out the personnel arrangement of the entire base, the subsequent plan progress, resource allocation and other aspects. He is a rare elite genius.

When the time comes, handing this matter over to him will definitely give everyone a satisfactory result.

The swordsmanship master nodded. He just mentioned it. He was a pure hunter and this was not his forte. Since the dragon hunter said so, there should be no problem.

The hunters began to discuss the matter of the fire dragon Detel helping to tame the thief dragon. The mood in the camp suddenly became much better, and the mental fatigue brought by a day of exploration was also relieved a lot.

"By the way, Falcon, why did you come to the New World?"

At this time, the hunter teammate in the same group with Falcon asked curiously.

This is basically the most common question within the investigation team.

Most hunters come here to hunt for ancient dragons, but a few come for other purposes.

So although this topic is the most common topic, it is also the hottest topic.

"me."

Falcon looked up at the starry sky, and the gentle smile on his face disappeared at some point.

His tone was a little heavy, as if he was missing his hometown or recalling something.

"The Yanhuo Village where I live is a very small village. Hunters trained in the village usually don't leave the village for too long. At most, they will only go to nearby villages or Elgard to carry out some trade missions. The village chief said that I was the most adventurous hunter in the village and that my life should not be bound by that. So with everyone's support, I said goodbye to the village with Yaya and sailed across the ocean to East Doruma."

"My purpose in coming to the New World is very simple, just to become stronger and to learn more hunting experience. When I retire in the future, I can return to the village to teach the younger generation and train excellent hunters for the village."

Falcon stroked the Fanghound's mane, and he still had something to say.

He would never forget the Night Parade of a Hundred Dragons nineteen years ago, when his father, an ordinary man, went to the defense point with a gentle smile, but never came back.

He also could not forget the terrifying monster with purple ghost fire surrounding it, which rushed into the village and wreaked havoc along with hundreds of dragons at night.

If it wasn't for the strongest hunter in the village at that time, Uncle Daowen, who tried his best to repel it, the village would probably have been completely destroyed by it.

Seeing that Falcon was in a low mood, everyone looked at each other and changed the subject, but everyone's voices became much lower.

Seeing that his master was in a bad mood, Yaya nudged his belly with his head, as if to comfort him.

"I'm fine. I really miss the dumplings in the village. Forget it. Aunt Cat's stewed cat rice is still more delicious. Yaya, what do you think about us kidnapping an Elu cat who can cook cat rice?"

"Woof!" Yaya called out in agreement.

Everything about the village is good, except that no one has a talent for cooking!

not a single one!

Early the next morning, everyone divided into groups of four and spread out in the area again to search for the trace of the Flame King Dragon.

The Big Anthill Wasteland is very large. Even if it is just an area of ​​it and 20 people scattered in it, they can't cause much waves.

Not to mention that there are many underground caves in the wasteland, and the Flame Dragon will enter those caves to rest at night or when it is resting.

This makes it even more difficult for the investigation team to find it.

At this stage, the investigation team has not yet thoroughly penetrated the ancient tree forest and the great anthill wasteland, and has not contacted the Detel tribe deep in the wasteland. In addition, there is a shortage of manpower, so carrying out the investigation mission will take a lot of time and energy.

This situation continued for many years and only began to improve when there was more manpower.

"What is this? The thorn of that unknown ancient dragon?"

The swordsmanship master dug up the yellow sand, pulled out the bone thorn, handed it to the editor in the team and asked.

The editor took the thorn, opened his notebook and found a simplified picture of the intact thorn that the Grand Commander had held in his hand before he fell unconscious. After comparing them carefully, he nodded to the swordsmanship master.

"Yes, the features are mostly the same. Except that the texture is not as hard as the thorn I brought back, there is not much difference."

After hearing what the investigator said, the swordsmanship master slowly exhaled.

"Since that ancient dragon left traces here, I'm afraid the Flame Dragon King is not far from us. Everyone, cheer up, because this time we may have to face two ancient dragons at the same time."

The swordsmanship master looked at the wasteland covered with yellow sand and felt the abnormally high temperature in the air. He had a premonition that they would meet the Flame Dragon soon.

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

Three red flares shot into the sky.

Falcon, his teammates and followers drank the prepared cold drinks and looked vigilantly at the sand pile not far away. There was a huge monster squatting quietly at the highest point, as if it was leisurely basking in the sun.

The other party just stayed there quietly, but was like a second sun. The air around Him began to distort due to the high temperature. The cactus next to him could not withstand the high temperature, and the moisture evaporated quickly, appearing wilted.

"Is this the Flame King Dragon? Strange, it doesn't have the bad temper that the legend says it has. It has clearly discovered us, but it has no intention of attacking us. Why is that?"

The One-Handed User was a little confused. When he saw the Flame King Dragon coming out from behind the sand pile just now, he was so scared that he was even ready to fight to the death.

As a result, the big fire cat just glanced at them, walked to the top of the sand pile and basked in the sun leisurely, without paying any attention to their presence.

"I don't know, but this is a good thing. Let's wait for the sword master and the others to arrive and see what to do."
