Monster life starting from picking up materials

He hid a lot of small props like this in his main activity place, including the small mask given by the Strange Face Tribe last year.

"It took the Broken Sword Tail with it. What a shame! If it were modified, it could be used as a simple weapon."

The commander was very sorry.

The investigation team lacks personnel to professionally process equipment, so the hunters use their own weapons. If they are damaged, they can only make the simplest and most natural bone weapons.

The materials from monsters that can be easily processed into weapons are even more precious.

"It should be used as food. After all, the sword tail and shell of the dragon slayer can be considered special minerals, which are part of its diet."

The dragon hunter was maintaining his weapon intermittently. The weapon was not damaged in the battle with the dragon slayer, but he just wanted to squat down and spend some time with his relatives and friends.

The Insect Gyro is a very complex weapon, often divided into a stick head and a blade head. It can also be transformed into a double-edged sword with a double-sided blade head due to the hunter's customization.

However, it often has one head as the main center of gravity, which is equipped with a special launcher that can only launch small things, mainly marking bullets prepared for hunting insects.

Some people regard their insect hunting partners as pets, some as tools, and some as comrades and relatives.

He did not hunt insects. Perhaps he had insect-hunting partners, but after they died of old age, he did not breed new ones and instead released their offspring back into the wild.

The mortality rate of hunting insects has never been low. Qualified hunting insects can extract different body fluids from different parts of monsters and convert them into insect powder to strengthen hunters. They are very good partners.

In addition to firing marking bullets, the Insect Glaive's launcher can also fire while dancing in the air, providing hunters with a reaction force to temporarily stay in the air, giving them the moment to perform actions and moves.

"Take this, I'm going to check out the tooth dragon corpse."

The commander dragged the dragon-slaying sword Thorn to the hunter's side, and he went to carry the body of the tooth dragon, which was fortunately not damaged, back on his shoulders.

In addition to ecological research, there are also plans to use it as food.

"I don't know where the Smoke Snow Weasel has gone, and whether it will come back."

The commander who was carrying the corpse of the thief dragon murmured, a little worried that if he didn't bring the smoke weasel back, the chef would not let him eat.

Thinking of this, the commander felt that the days ahead would become dark as if he had done something wrong, and that the glowing food would leave him, taking away the last ray of sunlight.

As his body stiffened, a white figure burst into the gloomy day, bringing back the light and nearly bringing him to tears.

"Oh! Thank God!"

The steady commander squatted down with emotion, opened his saddle bag, and invited the little cutie in.

Ji Jie did not refuse and followed the two back to the base.

As soon as they returned, the main figures in the investigation team held a meeting.

A group of people gathered around the Swordthorn and Tooth Dragon monsters that the two men brought back.

"Besides the Spinosaurus, there's also a Slayer Dragon? This new world is full of challenges! It really excites me."

The swordsmanship master sighed, putting his greatsword aside and carrying a female fire dragon sword on his back.

Changing weapons occasionally also changes one's mood. He is a master who is proficient in all melee weapons, but he is more proficient in using a few types of swords.

Chapter 104 The investigation team’s first harvest.

"Besides the Spinosaurus, there's also a Slayer Dragon? This new world is full of challenges! It really excites me."

"We all understand the Master's expectations, but you won't be allowed to go out until the preliminary work is done."

The regiment commander crossed his arms, originally he should have been the one to go out on the adventure, but his own commander wanted him to experience the difficulty of operations. There was no other way, of course he had to pamper his own commander.

That guy squats in front of supplies every day and is under a lot of pressure.

During the two days he was at the base, he actually controlled (feeling out) the overall situation (fishing) in the same way as before. Everyone was well aware of the situation and did not need overly strict control.

But everyone was obviously still happy to let the commander bear the pressure.

"Compared to the Dragon Slayer from the Old World, the steel on this sword thorn is clearly weaker than the crystal. According to what you said, the owner of this sword thorn has obvious crystallization?"

The elderly dragon scholar in the investigation team who was in charge of ecological research and record-keeping looked through the sword thorns repeatedly and observed the scattered shell fragments.

"Yes, it's not obvious but it's real crystallization."

"This dragon-slaying situation is likely due to regional differences in edible minerals."

"Speaking of which, the minerals mined these days are of much higher quality than those in the Old World. That's a good thing, but at the moment, it actually makes refining more difficult."

The technician, who was also a little old dragon man, sat on the box and added something.

"How do you feel? Young man, I still remember why you came on this ship."

The dragon scholar suddenly looked at the dragon hunter and pushed his glasses.

The hunter was of average height, while the scholar was only slightly above his knees. It was hard to imagine that they were of the same race.

"Energy, huge plants, vast ecosystems. There's no doubt this continent is filled with abundant energy. Such fertile land might be the reason why the ancient dragons migrated here."

The hunter made some guesses.

"Yes, but we haven't found any more patterns yet. But at least we can write an erasable setting on the answer sheet."

"The crystallization that occurred in the dragon-slaying creature is likely due to excess energy within the minerals. This energy was already present after the minerals were crushed and digested, and after the minerals were transported to the shell and precipitated, they were still being fueled by the energy to grow."

"So, the crystal texture on Zhan Long's body is better than the metal texture."

The ecological researcher recorded his own guesses in a notebook.

"In that case, the dragon-slaying beast must be a complete energy source!"

The dragon technician exclaimed in surprise. This energy source was not limited to biological energy sources, but certain characteristics of the minerals were retained and grafted onto it.

"But we have also found a scutosaur that was preyed upon by a Spinosaurus. That scutosaur was very similar to an Old World scutosaur, and there was no special situation like this."

The commander, who was drawing a simple map, looked up and pointed this out.

"So, are we witnessing two different phases in the evolution of the New World Dragon Slayer?"

A question mark appears on the paper, but this question can only be left here for the time being.

Without more physical intelligence, no amount of discussion will help.

The ecological researcher shook his head helplessly and asked about the situation of the other dragon.

"It can use a storm breath similar to that of a steel dragon, and it can also release the sword tail and the storm together when in the Iai stance, making it look like it is blowing up a strong wind with the sword tail."

The commander and the dragon hunter looked at each other and began to describe what happened at that time.

"Compared to the crystallization on the other dragon slasher, it's no different from an ordinary dragon slasher, except that the sword tail not only has a steel texture, but is also steel-colored."

"Only the sword tail?"

The ecologist was stunned.

Judging from the abilities it displays, it can almost be identified as a subspecies, but previous monster subspecies have had significant color differences or appearance changes compared to the original species.

"Only the sword tail."

This kind of thing that only differs in appearance...

Subspecies cannot be identified at will. To determine whether it is a subspecies, it is often necessary to explore the cause of the subspecies or confirm that the subspecies is not a short-lived individual.

Subspecies often require a wider range of cases to be confirmed.

"There are so many doubts. From the description, the battle between the two dragon-slaying dragons was quite noisy. Didn't the Spinosaurus show up?"

"No."

"The first dragon-slaying corpse was quite fresh when it was discovered. Could you please mark the time and location of the three dragon-slaying traces on the map?"

The ecologist scratched his thinning hair, feeling confused.

"Okay, the area we've explored has been mapped. There are some distances between them when they were sighted, but for a large monster, it shouldn't be too far."

"Wait, I think I'm mistaken. Spinosaurus isn't a territorial monster. It's usually like Sleeping Beauty."

The old dragon man knocked his head.

Yes, you can't count on Spinosaurus to respond to police calls.

A group of people came closer to observe the map. The range that could be explored by the two lines was just the tip of the iceberg.

"Oh right! Is this unprecedented tooth dragon... edible?"

The commander looked at the thief dragon who died very quietly and asked the question that concerned him.

Everyone has been paying attention to large monsters and lacks attention to this newly emerged tooth dragon.

"They move in groups, and there seem to be quite a few of them."

"Yes, yes, it looks like a new ingredient."

The greedy compiler lay down beside the thief dragon and poked it through his gloves.

"Meow?"

Chef Felyne also approached the thief dragon, and the mountain cat was beside her, pulling out the blade on its back and preparing to dissect it.

"Wait, wait, don't be anxious~"

The ecologist interrupted them and began to observe and record carefully.

"Body length..."

He recorded the data of the thief dragon and asked the two returning investigators about the situation of other individuals.

"This is a novel small predator. It may have a good bite force, but it should be mainly swallowed. It can be dissected."

Bobcats are beginning to understand planing.

You can tell by the scales on the skin that there are a lot of parasites, and there is more bone than flesh under the skin. When you cut open the stomach and intestines, you can find extremely corrosive stomach acid and a foul odor.

"Meow~"

The head chef shook his head and made a sound that disappointed everyone.

"Meow. (I'll take it back and think about it, but don't expect too much.)"

At her signal, Bobcat and his assistants Elu collected various body tissues of the thief dragon and put them away.

"What do you think about the naming?"

The ecological researcher mainly looked at the commander and the dragon hunter. The reference of the first witness is always the most important.

"If you name it..."

The dragon hunter shook his head, and the commander pondered.

"These guys walk like jackals, sneaking around in secret..."

The commander still looked at the old dragon man.

This man is actually not just a simple old dragon man. He is a very important research director in the guild and has the naming rights certified by the guild.

In terms of vocabulary and application level, I definitely surpass him.

"Let's call him Thief Dragon."

The ecologist nodded knowingly.

"Okay, then next, Master Yuanye and I will split up to conduct investigations, further exploring and investigating the Dragon Slayer and the Spinosaurus."

The leader finally spoke.

"At the same time, everyone, under the commander's command, will do some preliminary work on the dragon slashing attack, preferably prioritizing the tail-severing dragon."

As he spoke, he looked at the sword master and nodded to each other.

Only the commander beside him stared at him.

You've already made plans to seamlessly go out exploring after they come back, right?

Chapter 105 The Greedy Compiler.

While the investigation team was counting the harvest of their first exploration, the Smoke Weasel was scooping up the broth sealed in the pottery jar in the cave and taking a hearty sip.

The first thing he did after returning was that he was taken away by Elu the Cat Cook, and the other two enjoyed the reward for the investigators who went out before him.

After all, the large monster materials discussed above were all created by him, and he has made great contributions.
