Monster life starting from picking up materials

It’s time for me to find a chance to say goodbye, bring Nana and Xiabao to the ancient forest, and now just leave this cute cat girl alone.

He thought about it and gave up resisting.

"Xiaobai? Is that your name?"

The compiler looked a little strange and touched his head.

"Yes, look how white he is."

The cat girl raised the Itachi stick, and Itachi looked at the editor with a look of despair.

"I don't think he likes this name at all."

Hearing this, Ji Jie nodded his head frantically.

"It seems so."

Seeing Itachi nod, Milch said seriously, which made Jijie's eyes light up again.

"Is that so? I think a different name would be better. How about Zhizhi? Or Xiaozhi?"

Itachi's expression fell again, and he was extremely desperate.

Chapter 616: Moon Stone.

Itachi walked confidently in the hunters' camp, and from time to time hunters would cast curious glances at him, and the scholars' eyes would always follow him for a while before stopping.

But no one would run up to a mute ferret and ask a series of complicated questions.

Curious scholars took a tape measure to measure his body data or took some hair samples, of course, all of this was based on his permission.

He was not allowed to have his blood drawn, and Ji Jie didn't know how his blood would react to those strange experiments, or what would be revealed.

As long as he doesn't allow it, even the swiftest hunter here can't touch a single hair of his tail, and it's easy for him to appear and disappear mysteriously.

Ji Jie climbed to the top of the mountain behind the camp, overlooking the hunter camp below and the open ancient forest.

A medium-sized airship flew slowly from a distance along the safe mountain. It was a team heading to the Dragon Cemetery for follow-up exploration. The dragon head tentacle of the skeleton dragon was hanging under the airship.

Before they landed, Ji Jie smelled the strong stench of the skeleton dragon's tentacles and his face frowned.

There are a large number of plankton in the dragon cemetery that act as decomposers. These decomposers do not care whether the person they are decomposing is the owner of the cemetery. The tentacles of the skeleton dragon cannot escape decomposition, and the stench of the skeleton dragon becomes even stronger.

As soon as the skeleton dragon's tentacles were put down, hunters started throwing odor-removing balls on them, clearing the smell while also driving away the decomposers that were chasing the tentacles.

The scholars examined the huge tentacle, and finally someone lifted it onto the airship.

In addition to the tentacle, they brought back some larger, high-quality bones from the Dragon Cemetery, but these bones were not put down and slaughtered.

People began to move some things in the camp onto the airship, including monster materials, plant samples, and books. The hunters were mostly moving, while the dragon scholars were directing the work from the side.

But the atmosphere of leaving here only lingers on some people. The subjugation campaign against the Skeleton Dragon has come to a temporary end, but the hunters' investigation will not stop.

The scholars and hunters from the Dragon Calendar Institute will stay in the Ancient Forest to further investigate the local ecology, and the investigation team tracking the Dark Lantern Dragon will also stay in the Ancient Forest because of the appearance of the Dark Lantern Dragon, hoping to witness traces of the other party's activities again.

But the hunters on both sides are hunters, and the scholars on both sides are scholars. It is very common for them to exchange personnel with each other, not to mention jointly exploring and discovering an area.

Of course, someone also needs to return to their respective institutions to report the situation and bring back the samples of the skeleton dragon and the ancient forest. Also returning with them are some people... and creatures who don't need to stay on the front line.

Katie and the compiler climbed up the mountain together and came to the two sides of the smoke snow weasel.

"We should go back to the village! There are many fierce monsters in the ancient forest!"

The young catgirl spoke softly, twirling her fingers around the Smoky Snow Weasel's unusually long, floor-length fur.

An ageless and vicious weasel cannot affect the cat girl's opinion. This cute looking loli actually has no idea how old she is. Fortunately, she finally stopped naming Jijie.

The compiler didn't say anything. He was just a little hesitant, wondering whether to accompany Ji Jie to see what's going on, or to stay in the ancient forest and continue tracking down the Dark Lantern Dragon.

The former is an unrealistic intuition, while the latter is a practical and down-to-earth approach.

“It’s such a hard decision.”

The middle-aged compiler, not knowing what to choose, scratched his head and poked Yanxueweir with his finger, causing Jijie to look at him in confusion.

But thinking itself is a relatively rational activity. The more you think, the more your emotional intuition is eliminated.

Finally, he looked at Kati who was stroking the smoke ferret, and suddenly felt that his intuition was a little redundant.

Haven't bridges and the like always existed?

Both the cat girl and the smoke weasel looked at the strange uncle with a strange expression. Being stared at by the two cute creatures, the editor felt more and more redundant. He smiled awkwardly and walked down the mountain.

The compiler found a piece of wood to sit on, took out a piece of ice-white stone from his pocket, and rubbed his palm over the colorful lines reflected by the light.

A pleasant smell of incense made him look up, and he saw the chief scientist of the observation ship looking at the stone in his hand.

"I brought it back from the New World. It's as cold as the moon. I call it the Moon Stone."

The compiler raised his hand, showing the stone reflecting the light.

"I remember that everything brought back from the New World had to be inspected, and strictly speaking, bringing anything back privately was not allowed."

"You said it was strictly speaking. People always want to leave some memories of their past experiences. It's just a small stone, not an ancient dragon's golden treasure."

The compiler smiled and didn't care much.

"That's true,"

The female scholar nodded and continued, "Can you show it to me? I think I've seen similar samples before."

"of course can."

The female scholar put on the glasses hanging on the end of her hair and looked at him carefully.

"This is a piece of volcanic glass. I remember from the information I brought back from the New World that there was an ancient dragon monster named the Ice Curse Dragon, and it was also made of glass of this texture."

"It's actually the scales of an ancient dragon... or perhaps the armor layer? You know it so well."

The compiler scratched his head. He only knew about the existence of the Ice Curse Dragon, but he didn't know such detailed information.

"The Ancient Dragon Investigation Team collected a sample of this type during a conflict between ancient dragons, and the description above completely matches it."

The female scholar did not mind revealing this information, which was placed on the ancient dragon observation ship. However, most humans would be intimidated by the mountains of books piled up by the dragon scholars.

"Are you planning on joining the Ancient Dragon Investigation Team? I heard the third team is going to be formed by scholars, and aren't we always chasing the ancient dragons from the New World?"

The author clapped his hands and thought that the observation ship chasing the ancient dragon from the New World and the third group planned to be formed by scholars should be connected!

"My elder brother was a member of the second group. He wrote me a letter of recommendation. There is no scholar who is not interested in the New World."

The female scholar shrugged her shoulders in a calm tone, as if she was stating a fact and agreeing with the compiler's statement.

"Do you want this stone?"

"No, this is a commemoration of your past experiences. Why not leave it as a puzzle for your descendants?"

She smiled and handed the Moonstone back to the compiler.

"Now that you mention it, I have no choice but to train an excellent compiler to solve the mystery."

The middle-aged compiler nodded solemnly.

"To the north of the New World lies the wondrous Coral Plateau, and to the northwest lies a vast frozen land. These should both be magnificent landscapes. It would be much more convenient if we could use airships in the New World as well."

The future leader of the third group looked down at the panoramic view of the isolated island and couldn't help muttering.

Chapter 617 Farewell.

Ji Jie was naturally taken by Kati onto the airship and embarked on the route back to Belluna Village.

He didn't really care and just went to Belluna Village to have some special cat food before going to find Nana.

Also landing on the airship were the Felynx from Beruna Village. Little Orange was not far away, and seemed to be in a low mood. When some wounded hunters passed by, he would lower his head sadly.

"What's wrong with Xiaoju?"

Katie noticed this and called Xiaoju and the other Felynx to come to her side. She stretched out her hands and stroked the furry heads of the Felynx one by one.

"Xiaoju feels sorry for that hunter, meow~"

Xiaoju stammered and couldn't speak, but his fellow Felynx pushed him in front of Katie and answered.

The expressions of the Felyne cats all became depressed.

"Sister Katie, if we had been braver back then, we might have been able to save the hunter, meow."

Xiaoju raised his head and rested it on Katie's apron. The other Felynx also gathered around, and Katie's apron was soon filled with cat heads.

"Is it the dead hunter?"

The Felyne cats nodded. They were still worried about the hunter who fell under the Skeleton Dragon Thundergod's barrier, and Little Orange seemed to be burying his head in his chest.

The cat team he led was closest to the hunter at that time. If they had the courage to rush into the sea dragon's electric net, they could rescue the hunter in time.

"Will the other hunters think we're useless, meow?"

The other Felyne cat was also provoked and said in frustration.

"Well, that's a shame... You've already bravely saved many hunters. If you step into that electric net, you'll collapse, right? Then there's no way to save more hunters."

Katie nodded, gently rubbing the heads of each cat that had shoved itself against her apron.

"When saving others, you must also ensure your own safety!"

Ji Jie stood aside, quietly watching the Felyns with childlike hearts, and little Katie was like the big sister of all the Felyns at this moment.

"Sister, there's a hunter looking for you~"

The voice came from the bottom of the deck stairs, and Milch led the Longliyuan swordsman to Katie.

The cat heads stacked on Katie's apron scattered instantly, staring at the approaching hunter with their big, kazilan eyes.

The hunter, wounded, bent down and touched the Felyne closest to his leg, then looked at Katie:

"Miss Katie is the head of the attendant cats, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Ji Jie saw that all the Felynx raised their heads and stood up their ears smartly.

"I want a Felyne to be my partner!"

As soon as the hunter finished speaking, all the Felynx gathered at his feet, trying their best to show their cute or fierce side.

The sixteen hunters who were able to officially participate in the Skeleton Dragon Subjugation Battle were selected from the best hunters present. And this one, in front of us, was a warrior who had stood directly against the Skeleton Dragon and even launched a counterattack! He was a hero in the eyes of the Felyne's!

"Is that so? Everyone admires you. Who did Mr. Hunter take a fancy to? They are all very hardworking children."

Katie also stood up seriously, and the Felyne cats stood beside her hands consciously, straightening their backs.

The hunter squatted down, gently touched each of the Felyns, and finally reached out his hand to Little Orange, who was the most depressed among the Felyns.

Xiaoju was stunned for a moment, then his eyes gradually brightened. The sunlight seemed to pierce through the dark clouds, making him hesitate for a moment. The other Felynes looked at him enviously.

"Envy meow~"

"Jealous meow~"

"Plasmolysis has occurred, meow~"

Katie also gently pushed Xiaoju's body.

Xiaoju was stunned for a moment, then reached out and placed his hand on the hunter's.

"I'm better at medical, but not so good at combat, meow."

Xiaoju said it a little shyly, touching his face unconfidently.

"It's decided to be you. When I fell, you were the one who carried me onto the cat cart."

"The contract is still in the village. When we return to the village, Mr. Hunter and Xiaoju will officially sign the contract. You can spend some time together to get to know each other better."

Katie said this, patting the Felynes on both sides.

"Blessings, meow~"

The Felyne cats and Milchi chanted long notes and offered their blessings.

"Blessings, meow~"

Ji Jie also squeaked happily.
