Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 550 Responsibility, Dispatch

The hunter team had extensive experience in retreats, and after bypassing many hidden paths that could obstruct their view, they successfully left the Valley of the Dark Realm.

Along the way, everyone was digesting what they had just seen and heard.

They never imagined that an ancient dragon could survive in such an ecological way. Apart from the barren land and the grayish-white molted skins drifting in the wind, there were no other creatures in the entire area.

It's the kind of place where even the smallest environmental organisms don't exist!
The whole world is like it's dead!
This feeling filled the hunters with trepidation and deep anger!
Having spent years interacting with nature and considering themselves ecological guardians, they simply cannot accept the existence of such creatures in the world.

Right now, the other party's influence only exists in that valley. What if they escape?

Wouldn't this be a disaster for the entire Guiding Lands? Or even a disaster for the neighboring New World!
With unusual emotions, the group silently returned to the camp.

The other hunters who happened to be resting in the camp saw Darren's team like this, and the atmosphere immediately became heavy. They all knew that they must have discovered something terrible, and it was not a good thing!
Faced with a series of puzzled faces, Darren glanced at the dragon hunter who was deep in thought, sighed, and then told him about what he had seen and heard on this trip, as well as his speculations. After listening, everyone showed similar expressions.

"So, Commander, what's your decision?"

After Darren himself admitted that they were not characters that hunters could handle alone, they understood what was going on and volunteered to go to the Valley of the Darkness for preliminary investigation.

It's not a character that can be dealt with alone, which means they need to launch a large-scale attack, and the level of danger is probably even greater than the ancient dragons they have encountered in the past.

The premise of 'not allowing the enemy to leave the valley' indicates that this will be a battle of annihilation, a life-or-death struggle!

Therefore, the preliminary investigation is very important. As the only hunter who has actually faced Xeno'jiiva directly, Darren needs to return to the New World, inform the investigation team of the details, and cooperate with the scholars to conduct relevant analysis.

Therefore, this extremely dangerous, even life-threatening, survey and investigation task could only fall on their shoulders.

Despite facing such extremely high risks, none of the hunters in the recommended group backed down.

Looking at those resolute faces, Darren nodded silently and emphatically.

Without any overly sentimental words or extra gestures, he simply patted Sunshine Bro on the shoulder, glanced around at the others, and then fixed his gaze on Mia, who was clenching her fists and secretly cheering him on.

"Then I'll leave it to you all!"

After saying that, he left the camp without looking back, summoned his tamed pterosaur, and headed towards the New World under the moonlight.

The camp fell into a low murmur of discussion, while at the camp entrance, Xia Guagua, who was hiding and eating insects, rolled her eyes around before making a decision.

Under the cover of night, swaying its large tail, it quietly passed through the territories of one monster after another, following some special pheromone, heading deeper into the forest.

New World, Star Base.

The Commander-in-Chief, arms crossed, looked solemnly at Darren, who was sitting cross-legged on the deck, gulping down his food, while cats kept bringing him more food.

In order to bring the message back as soon as possible, Darren relied on his two pterosaurs to rush back to the Star Base day and night.

Darren gave all the food and medicine he carried to the pterosaurs to them. Except for a few pterosaurs that couldn't hold on any longer and landed to get some food, Darren basically returned hungry the whole time.

Not to mention the battles that occurred along the way when passing through the territories of some monsters.

"I never expected such a creature to appear on that continent, it's just a Blazing Sun Dragon."

The Commander-in-Chief hesitated, as if he wanted to speak but then stopped. The Sun Dragon had been gone from the New World for quite some time. They had initially assumed it had left with Xia Guagua, but now the hunters had found Xia Guagua in the Guiding Lands, while the Sun Dragon was missing. This meant they couldn't obtain any information or assistance from the Sun Dragon.

"No, not even in our records, there is no relevant information. After all, we have very little information about even the Xeno'jiiva, let alone this monster that is suspected to be an adult Xeno'jiiva."

The ancient dragonman stationed at Star Base, who was working with the base's research institute to replicate ancient weapons, put down the thick book in his hand and gave the commander-in-chief a reply that disappointed him.

"Is there absolutely no information?"

The Commander-in-Chief spoke in a heavy tone, constantly weighing his options in his mind; the only sound in the room was Darren swallowing his food.

After a long while, the Commander-in-Chief opened his eyes, his gaze hardening.

"Gather all hunters, prepare supplies, target: Guiding Lands!"

Like Darren and his group, the Commander-in-Chief could not ignore the disaster brought by the Fatalis.

If they don't find it, that's fine, but if they do, their conscience won't allow them to ignore it. No matter the cost, as hunters, they won't allow such creatures that live by destroying the ecosystem to exist!

"Over there by the ancient tree?"

"Rest assured, before the deity departed, he said that we are an inseparable whole!"

Upon hearing the ancient dragonman's reply, the Commander-in-Chief's lips curled into a slight smile: "Logistics and related transportation are now in your hands."

With the Commander-in-Chief's order issued, the Ancient Tree and Star Base quickly began to operate like a sophisticated machine, supported by its various parts, with both moving parts working rapidly and precisely.

The first batch of personnel and supplies were escorted along the way by a dragonfighting group formed by ordinary dragons and hunters, with Aki personally leading the team to the Guiding Lands.

Ya Ji wasn't going to participate in the battle; it was mainly because Luo Yun had been missing for too long, and she couldn't sit still any longer. She planned to go to the Demon Gathering Land herself to find Xia Guagua and ask her for clarification.

It only took half a month.

The entire research team of hunters traversed the New World, and through continuous transport back and forth from mobile research bases, almost all of them arrived at the Guiding Lands.

In the expanded camp, a hunter from the recommendation team, his face wrapped in bandages, lay on a stretcher, recounting the results of his exploration over the past period to a group of high-ranking officers.

Fortunately, apart from him, none of the other recommended hunters suffered serious injuries during the mission.

He was only seriously injured because he was caught off guard by the Fatalis's attack and was knocked off the cliff.

It's a stroke of luck that no one died. These were recommended hunters, top-tier hunters in the New World. Losing even one of them would be a huge loss for any hunter guild in the Old World.

After comforting the other person and letting them recover properly,

Based on the available intelligence, the high-ranking officers began discussing the relevant operational procedures.

Just as they were expressing their opinions, the roar of Xia Guagua, which had been absent for half a month, came from outside the cave.
