Monster life starting from picking up materials

But the weird feeling did not disappear along with the entanglement. The Thunder Wolf Dragon lowered its raised claws and looked around cautiously as it walked, ready for battle.

The feeling of being entangled came again, and this time, it was its tail that was entangled. He turned around quickly, having been prepared, but the powerful dragging force stopped his movements and pulled him backwards.

He tried to jump up, but another tugging sensation on his hind legs made him fall to the ground. He could only whimper and scratch the ground with his forelimbs to try to resist the pulling force.

Undeterred by the dragging force of its tail, its claws scratched a long trail on the ground.

The two forces dragged it for forty or fifty meters before they loosened.

The Thunder Wolf Dragon immediately climbed up, whimpering and crying, and ran out of the forest.

Soon, a familiar pale blue figure walked into the foggy forest, and two long tongues shot out at the same time in tacit understanding.

Nana felt the white mist in the forest and the heat waves surged as she flapped her wings.

"Wow!"

As the white mist was dispelled, the two long tongues that had just touched the Flame Queen Dragon's shell were also driven back by the burning pain, and the owners of the long tongues cried out in pain at the same time.

Nana realized something was wrong and looked around. Soon she saw two dragons on both sides, which were burned red and had pointed heads.

"Roar!!!"

Chapter 561: Equipment characteristics of the Dark Lantern Dragon.

A long time ago, on the airship.

"The nearby fortresses have stepped up their security. If they find any trace of Yang Yanlong and his wife, they will notify us."

"But the information we received from the Fortress stopped at distant sightings. They consciously avoided the Fortress."

There was no fluctuation in An Ye's tone, and he was no longer surprised at Ji Jie and his group's action of avoiding the city fortress.

The others had similar expressions.

The Thousand Swords Mountain incident had ended more than two months earlier, but what happened then was still fresh in the minds of those present. The newly joined members had also gained an in-depth understanding of the situation and had long since lost the ability to be surprised.

After entering the mountainous area controlled by Dongdoruma, the investigation team was reduced in number and reorganized, and the New World Gulongdu Investigation Team was formally established, dedicated to investigating the ancient dragons that returned from the New World during the Gulongdu.

In this mountainous area filled with human strongholds, their actions received a lot of help. Unlike before, they did not need a large number of logistical personnel. Every stronghold and armory could provide them with logistical support.

The fleet size was also reduced to two ships, namely the armed airship and the ancient dragon observation ship.

"But the only sightings reported were of the Flame King Dragon and the Flame Queen Dragon. The Dark Lantern Dragon did not appear."

"It seems that the Flame King Dragon and the Dark Lantern Dragon have never appeared at the same time."

The chief scholar added that she keenly sensed that there was some secret in it.

After hearing her words, some of the hunters seemed to shake their shoulders.

Many people on the airship witnessed the docile attitude of the Flame Queen Dragon towards the Dark Lantern Dragon, and the hunters also captured some little secrets that tended to be green.

They were all good material for jokes and lightheartedness, but they didn't quite align with the secrets she felt were there.

"This is indeed concerning, but the Dark Lantern Dragon may have traveled to a territory beyond our observation range, and the Flame King Dragon may have had other actions before."

The new editor shook his head, leading to a chorus of affirmative nods.

This compiler was a member of the first New World Ancient Dragon Investigation Team. He had originally retired, but after learning that an investigation team was established to investigate the ancient dragons that migrated from the New World to the original world, he volunteered to join.

What he said was also what most people thought. Even if the wilderness was developed into hunting grounds and outposts and observation stations were built everywhere, most of this land was still unexplored, and there were so many areas that could not be observed.

Human power has its limits, and the environment is constantly changing with the migration of monsters. Even if the hunting ground has been explored, unknown changes will occur due to the migration of ancient dragons.

"The reaction to the attributes of the Dark Lantern material has also been completed. Dark Lantern is extremely resistant to Fire and Dragon, but its resistance to the other three attributes is average. It has no significant weaknesses."

A young dragon scholar spoke up.

"The materials collected from the Dark Lantern Dragon cocoon are very interesting. Using them to craft equipment is exactly the opposite of the monster attribute resistance this young man mentioned. The armor is weak against dragon and fire energy, but has excellent absorption properties for other attributes."

Following the words of the dragon scholar, a short dragon craftsman stroked his beard, raised a veil, and spoke aloud.

"This weakness is only apparent. The area covered by the material known as the Phantom Veil is impervious to water and fire. Even the corrosion caused by the dragon attribute will no longer be effective on the equipment."

Next to the dragon craftsman, Hubble raised his fists, posing with a strong sense of strength.

And on his body, the originally golden mantis armor was wrapped in a layer of pale and mysterious veil.

A hunter held a lit torch against Hubble and kept moving it, but his armor was only slightly charred and was not consumed or burned by the flames.

"And when this material is used to make hunting tools, the tools will be affected in some mysterious way, reducing the impact of wear and tear."

The craftsman's gaze fell on the back of Dark Night. The shield axe had been modified. The shield surface was wrapped in the dark veil of the Dark Lantern Dragon. The core position was inlaid with the dragon jade peeled out from the broken tail of the Dark Lantern Dragon found in the cocoon.

Combined with the energy flow under the crystal clear skin of the Dark Lantern Dragon, even if the dragon jade in the tail is not the core, it is also a node that receives and radiates energy.

"This greatly improves the shield axe's protective properties. If you face him again, you'll find that the shield axe can better charge the Dark Lantern's energy into the bottle."

"The Charged Light Blade and the Ultra-High Output Liberation Slash may be enhanced, but they may not be very effective against the Dark Lantern's powerful energy absorption ability."

"I understand."

An Ye nodded slightly, his eyes revealing the anticipation of facing the Dark Lantern Dragon again.

The hunters around also looked at the hunter who was holding back the Dark Lantern Dragon Palace with admiration.

"Alright, guys, after the meeting, if you'd like to cover your armor with a layer of Phantom Veil, come find me. I have plenty of sloughed skin collected from the cocoons of the Dark Lantern Dragon."

After shouting loudly, the dragon craftsman slowly walked out of the crowd, not very interested in what was to follow.

The hunters looked at An Ye with shining eyes, and were obviously eager to modify their equipment.

"There's really nothing more to say. Let's go."

Looking at the gazes of the crowd, An Ye shook his head slightly and waved his hand to drive them away.

The hunters dispersed with joy, and the scholars also dispersed after discussing some possibilities with each other.

Only a few people remained at the table, including Hubble.

He took off his gloves and ran his rough fingers across the airship route on the map, landing on a point ahead.

That point is specially marked on the map.

"The abandoned city of Mantis King Ge. Is this also on our route?"

Speaking of the ruined city, Hubble looked at the golden mantis armor shining under the dark curtain, revealing the nostalgic expression unique to old men.

"It's this direction. If we're lucky, we can see the abandoned city from the deck."

"Hahaha! That's fantastic, little Julius. You can come and watch it with me then. Your master and I fought against the Old Mountain Dragon right there in Zuoxu City."

Hubble put his arm around the neck of a young hunter who was lingering at the table. His rough movements made the young hunter's long, smooth white hair a little messy, and his face suddenly fell.

"My master took me there two years ago. He told me so many stories that my ears are almost callused."

The young hunter named Julius lowered his head, slipped out from under Hubble's arm, and began to tidy up his elegant long hair.

"Alas, it's a pity that Cambe has retired. If we had come together for this event and found an opportunity for field research, it would have been a great thing to sit in the abandoned city and watch the sunset."

Chapter 562 Goodbye Xucheng.

……

"The abandoned city is almost here!"

Julius excitedly opened the dormitory door and shouted inside but received no response.

When he looked carefully, Hubble was sleeping soundly on the bed with his limbs spread out.

"Wake up, wake up quickly."

The young hunter leaned over to Hubble's ear and shouted, then shook him vigorously, which made the rugged hunter sit up.

"The abandoned city is almost here!"

"Oh, good."

Hubble scratched his bald head, simply put on his inner armor, and walked out with Julius.

When the two men walked onto the deck of the airship, they were somewhat surprised to find that a group of hunters had gathered at the edge of the deck.

The same thing happened on the deck of the ancient dragon observation ship on the side. Scholars set up the scope and aimed it forward.

"It seems that something unexpected has happened?"

"Just go and see and you'll know?"

The two of them entered the crowd, and after their sight passed through the crowd, their steps couldn't help but stop.

They no longer needed to look around for the mountain hiding the ruins of the city, because—

The huge ruined city is right in the center of the field of vision.

"how is this possible?"

Hubble stared at the ruined city in amazement.

Judging from the outline, that ruined city is undoubtedly the final appearance of the ruined city of King Mantis.

"Perhaps another Mantis Queen has found the ruined city? Repaired it and regained control?"

Julius on the side spoke.

Over the past decade, scholars have conducted further research on the ecology of the mantis, almost confirming that the only one who can control the ruins is the female mantis queen, and that the queen's pheromones can completely dominate the male mantis's primitive instincts.

The most likely scenario is that other Mantis Queens find this abandoned city and repair it.

"Maybe? Hey, want to organize some people to investigate? Count me in."

Hubble muttered, turned his head and saw Dark Night who was also looking at the ruined city in the distance, and shouted loudly.

Although the target of this investigation team is the ancient dragons from the New World, with the support of the Fortress, they also have the responsibility to help the Fortress explore the surrounding area.

"Ah."

An Ye's frown relaxed and he nodded.

"Don't just focus on the ruins of the city. Pay attention to the battle traces and debris around it as well."

Only then did the two of them notice that behind the ruins of the city, there was the huge skull of the old mountain dragon and its wreckage that was severely damaged and could not be seen clearly.

--the other side--

Ji Jie staggered back to the bottom of the ruins city.

The ruined city was rebuilt once again. The previous paralysis of the silk thread caused by strong acid corrosion warned him that as a structure for conducting force, the silk thread should not be exposed.

During the reconstruction process, he consciously hid the silk threads connecting the building materials inside and covered them with steel plates. There happened to be a hollow shell removed from the limbs of the crab, and the part of the silk threads that pulled the joints was hidden in the hollow limbs.

If you want to paralyze the actions of the ruined city by cutting the silk threads, you must first remove the shell of the crab's limbs!

After admiring the masterpiece of Xu City, Ji Jie entered the cockpit and pulled the silk thread. The structure of Xu City collided and slowly moved forward.

By walking around, if Xucheng exposes some minor problems during the operation, it can also be adjusted in time.

Looking at the huge skull of the Laoshanosaurus in front of him, Ji Jie controlled his slender neck and swung it over, intending to test its combat performance.

Some parts fell off, and the skull of the Laoshanosaurus only shook slightly without any damage.

Outside the limited view of the ruined city, the airship in the distance cautiously lowered its altitude. Three hunters and a compiler slid down from the airship and flew rapidly towards the location where the ruined city was located.

"Be careful. I remember when I came here with my master two years ago, there was a group of Thunder Wolf Dragons active nearby."

Julius recalled and reminded him.

"Thunder Wolf Dragon? It should have migrated here during the time of the Mantis King, right?"

Everyone slowed down their pace, and another hunter in the team stopped and nodded at them.

There were clearly footprints of the Thunder Wolf Dragon on the ground.

"Prepare the stink bombs. They are particularly effective against monsters with sensitive noses like this."

The hunters present were not panicked. They just covered their prop bags with their hands and listened to the movements around them.

But it was so quiet all around that not even the chirping of insects could be heard.

The editor came to the tree, took out a telescope from the small bag on his chest and began to observe the tree.
