Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 16 Investigation Team

In the ancient tree forest, in a mountain rift that could only accommodate one person, three people and a cat were staring at the entrance of the rift.

Suddenly, there was a feeling of heat coming from the cave entrance. One of the men, wearing a thief dragon armor and holding a one-handed sword, pulled the two people next to him to the side and pressed them against the wall, and he stood in front of the two with a shield.

Sure enough, the next second a ray of fire came and passed directly in front of him, leaving a scorching smell in the air.

After the fire, a loud roar was heard from the cave entrance, and then there was no movement.

"Hoo~ Ruby, go check out the cave entrance, be careful."

The man swiftly dodged the flames and gave orders to the gray Felyne cat in leather armor, then he sat down on the ground, holding his waist with his hands and showing pain on his face.

"Ved, are you okay?"

Seeing the man in pain, his two companions immediately pulled him to the corner, and one of them quickly rummaged through his briefcase and took out medicine and bandages.

The other one helped to remove the armor on his waist, and the two of them hurriedly applied medicine to him.

The three of them and the cat are a survey team responsible for the ancient tree forest, consisting of an editor, a scholar and a hunter.

Their mission today is to investigate the riot of the thief dragon deep in the ancient tree forest.

The members who went out some time ago discovered a strange phenomenon. Many dragons that lived deep in the ancient tree forest appeared on the outskirts, posing a considerable threat to many members who were conducting investigation activities on the outskirts.

This abnormal phenomenon attracted the attention of the investigation team, so they sent three teams, including this one, to investigate.

As a result, when their team arrived at the activity range of the thief dragon, they unfortunately ran into a giant thief dragon whose size was far beyond the normal size.

Just look at Wade's dragon thief suit and you'll know that he is no stranger to the giant dragon thief, but the giant dragon thief he encountered this time is completely different.

The body length is estimated to be at least 20 meters!
You should know that a normal Giant Thief Dragon is generally only about 11 meters long. This Giant Thief Dragon is not only twice the size of an ordinary Giant Thief Dragon, but also has an astonishing desire to attack and appetite.

During Wade's investigation, he discovered that the giant thiasaurus ate very frequently. The original territory of the thiasaurus overlapped with that of other carnivorous dinosaurs, so the food in the original territory could not satisfy them.

Therefore, the thief dragons began to expand their territory under the leadership of this big thief dragon.

And Wade and his men were very unlucky to run into them head-on.

The one-handed sword that could easily break the skin of the giant thief dragon could only break the skin when facing this special giant thief dragon even if it used all its strength.

The small round shield could not withstand the charge of the big thief dragon. In addition, there were many other thief dragons joining the siege. For a while, their team was beaten back.

With the help of props such as stink bombs, he finally managed to escape the pursuit and fled to the outskirts of the ancient tree forest.

Just when he was planning to find a place to rest, he ended up running into the territory of a Brute Jaw Dragon that was also much larger than its peers.

The most important thing is that this Brute Jaw Dragon does not match its racial identity at all. It actually squatted in the woods and launched a sneak attack! !

As soon as they met, he was knocked away by its dragon chariot and fell heavily on a rock.

The wound on Vader's waist was caused by the sharp part of the stone. Fortunately, his Felynx partner was very helpful and tried his best to attract the attention of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, which gave them time to hide in this small rift.

huh~~
A rescue signal was sent into the sky, and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. There were too few members in their first group, and although they had a full ship, in this new world, these few people couldn't even make a splash.

And now that the only hunter among them was injured, the best thing to do was to wait for rescue nearby.

"Greedy ghost, you've caused us so much trouble this time. When we return to Xingchen, you must take out the mushrooms you collected this year and treat us to a good meal."

The dragon scholar wiped the blood off his hands and smiled at the editor who was sorting out his notes.

"No, I only collected so little this year, and you're already thinking about it before it's even dried! How about we go to the cafeteria and have a big meal? How about I treat you?"

The man known as the glutton quickly waved his hands, put the notes he had taken back into his backpack, and pleaded with his companions.

"Hey, if you hadn't shown your head, how could we have been discovered by that big thief dragon? Just tell me if you are willing or not! The stew in the cafeteria is indeed delicious, but after eating it for so many years, it's nice to change the taste occasionally."

The dragon scholar refused to give in.

"Okay, okay, I get it. It's just some mushrooms. Eat them! It'll fill you up, that's all."

Glutton looked distressed, but both of them knew he was pretending.

Although this guy is greedy and has an amazing appetite, when he has no tasks, he likes to stay near the cafeteria, eating free fruits or buying some barbecue while flipping through notes borrowed from other editors.

But at the same time, sharing the delicious food he collected with his companions is also one of his pleasures.

"But then again, Nori, why did you suddenly stick your head out? That's not like you."

The dragon scholar was a little curious. Although Nori was a little greedy, he was definitely a qualified editor. As Witt's partner, he had never fallen behind in an investigation. His strange behavior today was indeed a little puzzling.

"This one"

Nori scratched his head and said hesitantly, "I don't know if I saw it wrong. When I was observing that special giant thief dragon, I found that when it was regurgitating, in addition to food, there seemed to be some crystals. It felt a bit like dragon jade, but I couldn't see it clearly at the time, so I accidentally exposed it in my excitement."

Nori felt a little embarrassed after he finished speaking, but his discovery also made the two of them frown.

"Can the dragon jade be spit out?"

Vader looked at the dragon scholar with some uncertainty.

Seeing that both of them were looking at him, the dragon scholar shook his head and said, "I don't know, but there is no mention of this in the books about dragon jade. Dragon jade is usually obtained by dissecting some large monsters, and the probability is quite low. Not all large monsters have dragon jade in their bodies."

"Perhaps the dragon jade-like thing you saw is just some special crystal. We can report this when we return."

The three of them reached a consensus. At this time, the Felyne cat named Ruby crawled out from the ground and shook her head at Wade with a disappointed look on her face.

"Meow~meow~"

"Ruby means that the Brute Jaw Dragon is still squatting outside, and it doesn't show any sign of leaving."

Wade's face was solemn. He had been discussing the unusual Giant Thief Dragon, but the Barbarian Jaw Dragon in front of him was equally unusual.
