Danma: Danganronpa, but Monster Hunter!

Completely different from the useless one in the game, this is the real deal, a true ancient dragon that can be described as a natural disaster!

"The dragon seemed to have transmitted its emotions to Huoya, who then said, 'Where is the other half? Where is the other half?' After investigation, we confirmed the dragon's identity."

Samantabhadra took a deep breath and slowly said:

"That was the ancient dragon that the ancestors of Flamefire Village called the Breath of Calamity, named Wind God Dragon. And we have also confirmed one thing: that guy is the source of the Hundred Dragons Night Parade. All along, it has been driving the monsters around Flamefire Village to attack Flamefire Village."

As Puxian spoke, he slammed his fist into the palm of his other hand with a loud crack, gritting his teeth in resentment.

The feud between Flamefire Village and Hundred Dragons Night Parade can be said to have lasted for hundreds of years, and it can even be said that the final outcome will be the demise of one of them. As a retired but still sharp-witted former pillar of Flamefire Village hunters, Puxian naturally held the same idea from beginning to end: to end Hundred Dragons Night Parade while he was still alive.

Now he has not only identified the source of the Hundred Dragons Night Parade, but also said that Huo Yun was influenced by the resonance of the Wind God Dragon.

It can be said that at this point, Samantabhadra's hatred for the Wind Dragon had reached its peak.

"Currently, the guild has dispatched a team to track down the Wind God Dragon. It is said that its tracks have been found in the Submerged Forest. Most importantly, because of the Wind God Dragon's appearance, the monsters in the Submerged Forest area seem to be gathering again."

"That is to say......"

"That's right, the mission has arrived. We can't just sit here and wait to die, letting the Wind God Dragon gather monsters and launch the Hundred Dragons Night Parade. We must take the initiative and attack." Puxian declared solemnly.

"Raul and the others have all set off with the guild's team for the hunt, but there are still some missions that are too dangerous for them and require a skilled hunter to carry them out."

"Your task ahead will be very important, and I will have Shuiyun fully cooperate with you."

"I understand." A slight light shone in Lieyan's eyes.

Heavy tasks? Heavy tasks are good! He was just worried about how to maintain the growth of his stats after reaching LV2, and now a large wave of monsters has come. It's like a godsend, giving him experience points.

If I could reach LV3 before fighting the Wind Dragon, I'd have a better chance of winning.

At least if my body is stronger, I might be able to withstand a few more blows.

There's also Ais, who's about to level up; the Tione and Tiona sisters, who aren't far from leveling up either; the werewolf Bert; and a certain Yamabuki-colored elf.

If these people could also level up before the Wind Dragon's attack...

However, that seems unlikely...

Ais might be able to level up by taking on the floor master one-on-one, but the others are far from that level.

The crux of the matter is that while the monsters in the Monster Hunter world are indeed powerful enough to be considered a great achievement for ordinary adventurers, the individuals mentioned are themselves all elites selected from among thousands.

The requirements for strength and great achievements are on a completely different level compared to ordinary adventurers; they are much higher.

For example, when they defeated the Rock Dragon and the Sand Dragon last time, Bert and Ais failed to achieve any great feats, only gaining a certain increase in their stats.

The Rock Dragon and the Barroth are among the more troublesome enemies he can encounter at his level.

Following this logic, it seems the Loki Familia's Level 5 crew, led by Ais, won't achieve greatness until they face higher-ranking beasts like the Snow Demon, Spectral Dragon, Diablos, Tigrex, and Rajang...

It shouldn't be that bad...

That level is probably a bit too exaggerated... You know, high-ranking dragons like the Magmortar and Rajang are beings that can rival Elder Dragons.

A certain lone tiger with only one eye and one point of view can rival the ancient dragon even with a single polarity, and a dual polarity would result in explosive combat power.

The Golden Lion went even further, directly using the horn of a certain shameful ancient dragon as a popsicle, not only breaking it but also destroying it on the spot...

While the Snow Demon Beast Diablos and Tigrex aren't quite as exaggerated, they're still formidable and could hold their own against the two mentioned earlier.

If only beings of this caliber could grant Loki's Familia a Level 5 achievement...

Why worry about the Wind God Dragon? Just invite Ancestor Finn, Ancestor Riveria, and Ancestor Grace. With three level-six ancestors and five level-five guardians, and if they choose the right weapons, crushing the Wind God Dragon will be a piece of cake.

Therefore, this standard should be lowered.

For higher-level enemies like Zinogre, Nargacuga, Barioth, and Rathalos, it's about time to gain Great Achievement experience.

Even with these monsters having their standards lowered, they are still categorized into quests that only high-ranking six-star hunters can undertake...

It seems it's time to show Monster Hunter World what real cheating looks like!!

Chapter 86: What the heck?

After giving his instructions, Puxian left the hut in the flames. The appearance of the Wind Dragon had put the entire Flamefire Village back on high alert, and everyone was working hard for it. As the village chief, he was leading by example, and the number of matters he had to handle was no less than that of Finn, who had a large backlog of official duties due to the expedition.

In a sense, these two leaders are quite similar... They seemed to have a very pleasant conversation when they last met.

It was indeed because they found someone like them.

However, according to Lieyan's memory, after the Hundred Dragons Night Parade, a mountain weighing down on Yanhuo Village, was dealt with, the old man was completely relieved. Later, he even invited Lieyan to go hunting because he was itching to, and he even gave away the village's finest knife. The old man was having a great time, while Lieyan was being used like a beast of burden by both the Kingdom of Elgard and Yanhuo Village. He was almost single-handedly handling all the weirdo-related tasks...

...Luckily, I have a cheat code that allows me to recruit people from all over the world to help me...

Otherwise, he would definitely be like that instructor who hasn't officially appeared even though it's almost chapter 100, either hunting or on his way to hunt.

The thought of such a future sent a chill down Lieyan's spine.

He absolutely does not want that tragic future to become a reality!!!

No, I must become stronger!

Feeling spurred on, Flame made up his mind and rushed to the Hunter Division.

The orc girl who stayed behind at the hunter's branch stood up excitedly upon seeing him.

Because of her personality and strength, Flame is actually highly regarded within the Loki group. Especially at the branch level, after personally experiencing the strength of the enemies Flame faced before receiving the Grace, everyone was genuinely impressed.

After a brief exchange, Lieyan summoned a portal to the other side and began the routine material exchange and transportation mission.

The task is to transport all the materials and items collected by the Monster Hunter division to the Loki Familia's warehouse, and then move the prepared exchange goods from the warehouse there.

Originally, this task wasn't supposed to be assigned to Flame. He only needed to open the portal, and the Monster Hunter division staff could handle it perfectly well. However, with only one person left in the Monster Hunter division, he had no choice but to roll up his sleeves and get to work.

While working, I tried to find joy in the hardship. But to be honest, since upgrading to LV2, even manual labor has become much easier than before.

Because Flamefire Village is currently in a state of war preparedness, most of its supplies have been put on the list of items that need to be stored. As a result, there are very few supplies left that can be used for exchange, so the moving work did not last long. Soon, Flamefire was able to get away.

.............

"Commander, I'm coming in."

After finishing the moving work, Blaze immediately went to Finn's office to tell him about Fire Village and the Wind Dragon.

"Oh, it's Lieyan. What's the matter?"

But to everyone's surprise, when Flame pushed open the door to the captain's office, he saw not Finn sitting in the chair Finn usually sat in, but Grace.

"Grace?" Looking at the dwarf warrior processing documents in his chair, Lie Yan couldn't help but ask the crucial question, "Where's Finn?"

"Finn went to the dungeon... with Riveria, and the two little Amazon girls and Ais, Lefia."

Grace pushed the documents in front of her aside and said somewhat dejectedly.

As for the reason for his frustration, it wasn't because he wasn't in the dungeon party. Although his clan was currently idle, it still needed some high-level combatants to hold the fort. The other two LV6s had gone to the dungeon, leaving him behind. His main frustration stemmed from the pile of documents in front of him…

The commander and deputy commander had both left, but the affairs of the clan still needed to be handled, and the dwarf who was forced to take on this responsibility was naturally not in a good mood.

"Did you go to the dungeon? Or with Ais and the others?"

Upon hearing this news, Lieyan's lips twitched slightly, and he felt a slight headache.

What a coincidence... Why did they have to go at this time of year, and even in a group?

What Lieyan didn't know was that he was partly responsible for this incident.

He gave his hunting knife to Ais, and that's the reason why.

After getting the hunting knife, Ais wanted to try out the weapon, so Tiona, who was with Ais, had a bright idea and suggested that they just go to the dungeon.

Over the past few days, her mastery of the Insect Glaive has become increasingly refined. She has begun to grasp the aerial combat style, and the feeling of spinning and jumping in the sky, almost like flying, fascinates her. She even feels like taking out her Insect Glaive and flying for a while when she is walking down the street.

However, Finn ordered that the use of Wirebugs was strictly prohibited among the Familia, and that they should also be avoided in front of other Familia in the dungeon.

Because of this ban, Tiona has now become a second version of Ais – whenever she has free time, she goes straight into the deeper levels of the dungeon and flies around randomly in an open space... no, she experiments with the Insect Glaive.

Ais thought about it and figured that since Flame hadn't been able to refresh any hunting quests in the past few days, the probability of quests refreshing was also very low. In that case, it seemed like it would be a good idea for her to go down into the dungeon.

Adding to the 40 million fali debt incurred from the previously destroyed weapons, the dungeon option becomes even more tempting.

Although the creditor, Gubernew, said there was no rush to repay the money and that she could use new monster materials to offset the debt when the opportunity arose, Ais still felt it was better to pay off the debt cleanly. After all, forty million was not an exorbitant amount for a first-level adventurer's gold-farming ability.

So one wanted to test the knife, and the other wanted to fly freely; they hit it off immediately.

Adding to the mix was Lefia, who happened to be passing by and, after hearing their conversation, also wanted to go to the dungeon together. Thus, the three formed the initial team.

Then, Tiona successfully used Finn to lure her older sister. Finn also wanted to try out the reforged new weapon, so he readily accepted the invitation and also brought Riveria on board.

…………

It can only be said that this incident itself has some butterfly effect involved.

"By the way, what happened that made you so eager to find Finn?" Grace, feeling a little thirsty, poured herself a glass of water.

"Regarding an ancient dragon that has appeared in the area surrounding Flamefire Village and will inevitably fight us—you might not understand what I mean by that, Grace, but if I told you that this ancient dragon might be the key you need to level up, I wonder how you would deal with it."

puff!

Grace spat out all the water in his mouth. He stared at the flames, not even bothering to wipe the water droplets clinging to his beloved beard, his eyes filled with shock.

"What did you say??"

Chapter 87: What do you think of me?

Yes, that's the expression I wanted to see!

That expression was filled with shock and disbelief!

Hahahaha!!

Suppressing the urge to leap like a frog, Flame coughed lightly and explained, "Ancient dragons are some powerful dragon-type monsters from my side. The ancient dragon I just mentioned is called the Wind God Dragon. It is the source of the Hundred Dragons Night Parade that has influenced Flamefire Village for hundreds of years. Judging from the scale of its power, conservatively speaking, it should at least be close to Barol's ability rating. Moreover, the Wind God Dragon can fly freely."

Barol is the Lone King of the Labyrinth in the deep underground city. He is rated LV-7 by the guild and is the most formidable enemy Loki's Familia has ever faced.

(I almost caused Loki's Familia to suffer casualties on our first encounter. The Fallen Fairy clone, also rated LV.7, will not be encountered until the next expedition. So right now, Balor is indeed the strongest opponent.)

The reason Balor was used as a comparison was simply to help Grace understand the power and strength of an Elder Dragon like the Quetzalcoatl.

In fact, although Flame himself had never witnessed Balor's strength, in all fairness, he believed that the Wind Dragon, who could fly freely in the air and create strong storms with its wind bags, was definitely more difficult to defeat than Balor.

Dungeons have amply demonstrated that the environment has a significant impact on combat effectiveness.
