Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1198 Underground Ruins

Anhil tapped his eyebrows.

He found that he too was stuck in a fixed mindset.

In the past, whether it was to investigate the ecology of the Xuanhui dragon or to find the location of the Golden Township, it was necessary to find the Xuanhui dragon, so naturally one had to chase the guide insect.

But now, their main purpose is to explore this golden land and find the remains of ancient civilizations within it.

Then the right thing to do is to avoid the area where the Xuan Huilong is as much as possible.

"Evelin and the others encountered the remains of the white-gold Brilliant Dragon before. In which direction were they located?" Gordon asked Alva.

Alva pulled out a road map, confirmed it and said: "Southeast, the straight-line distance from here is less than two kilometers."

Gordon nodded, "Then let's go in the opposite direction first.

I heard you say that the white-gold Xuanhuilong is stronger than the other individual, not to mention that there are cubs over there. I am afraid that it is the focus of the Xuanhuilong group.

Let's stay away from that area first and then go over there last. "

Alva is the busiest one in the team. He continues to record the route and terrain while looking for traces of creatures.

An Xil's face was a little dark, but he didn't say anything.

This atmosphere, which was hard to tell whether it was relaxed or tense, lasted until the pork chop and mushroom appeared in everyone's sight at a fast pace.

This large team of hunters explored for several kilometers without any surprises.

Everyone agreed.

He never tired of it and was slapped on the head by Gordon before he stopped.

Gordon immediately ordered everyone to stop and stay on guard.

When you are among a group, you will inevitably feel more relaxed.

He kept the strange-faced tribe's Babaka in the team, and let him, together with the sharp-sense tooth hounds, confirm whether there was any golden strange-faced tribe secretly peeping or following them.

Along the way, he discovered steamed bun crabs, gold foil horseshoe crabs, and several other species unique to the Golden Country more than once.

Feng Ying giggled and flattered, "Master Gordon! It's really better for you to take command, better than An Xil!"

"Really? I think so too." Gordon responded shamelessly.

As a member of the Strange Face Clan, it should be easier to see through the disguise of the Golden Strange Face Clan.

Just as it guessed, Xuanhuilong transported not only the gold in the Golden Land, but also the entire supporting ecosystem!

This is a very eye-catching discovery in the biological academic world, but hunters don't care about it.

The hunters are on the move again.

Pig Chop ran in front of him on all fours and said excitedly while suppressing his voice: "Relics, meow! Found the ruins, meow!"

There were a lot of hunting partners in the team, so Gordon arranged for Pork Chop to take the mushrooms and head forward for reconnaissance.

Just like Feng Ying and Jean, they were kicking the gold foil horseshoe crabs one by one like two naughty children.

Then arrange for Nanasi to take two hunting cats, some distance behind the main force, so as to give timely warning when monsters appear from behind.

With the full vigilance of hunting partners, and the habit of using guide insects in reverse to guide the way, they avoided areas where the Brilliant Dragon might appear.

Especially when they discovered that the gold-leaf horseshoe crab always seemed to like to crawl while holding the dragon-slayer stone, they began to compare who kicked the gold-leaf horseshoe crab and dropped the larger dragon-slayer stone.

Alva immediately walked over and opened his mouth with a series of questions, "Where? What age? What is the scale? How is it preserved? What type of building is it?"

Pig Chop could only answer the first question, "It's right in front, the straight-line distance is no more than two hundred meters, meow! You can't see anything else, meow!"

Gordon and Ancil looked at each other and shouted to the hunters behind them, "Speed ​​up!"

The whole team immediately sped into action.

Within a few minutes, the hunters arrived at the ruins mentioned by Pig Chop.

Only then did Gordon and the others understand why Pork Chop could not tell anything.

This ruins is located underground, and the only part that can be directly seen is a square entrance like a wellhead, and a downward staircase leading to an unknown place.

Alva rushed over and lay down at the entrance of the ruins, his face almost touching the bricks, and he even looked like he wanted to take a few licks.

"I have never seen similar stone bricks. The materials of these bricks are different from those of the Shuiwulin Pyramid, Lingfeng Ruins, Shahai Ancient Village Ruins, and Shuhai Ancient Pagoda!

Did a completely unknown civilization exist in the New World? This is impossible." While Alva was going crazy over there, Gordon looked around, thought for a moment, and said to the hunters:

"It seems that this is a closed underground ruins. What is inside, where it leads to, and whether there are other entrances and exits are all unknown.

It would be too dangerous for all the people to enter together, so we, Yinbian, will be responsible for the first wave of investigations.

Others stayed near the cave entrance to guard against unexpected situations.

As for the harvest, there is no need to worry. No matter what we find in the ruins, everyone will participate in the distribution. "

"No problem, I will guard the entrance of the cave, don't worry!" Ted was the first to make a statement.

The other two teams had no objections.

The three people at Yinbian, including Jean, who temporarily joined the team, are usually popular and have good reputations. No one would think that they are going to seize the treasures in the ruins.

After quickly checking his belongings and equipment, Gordon was about to take the lead into the passage with the pork chop, but was suddenly grabbed by Alva.

"I'll go ahead." Alva's tone was serious.

Gordon shrugged and stepped back behind him.

Exploring ruins is different from hunting, and it is more appropriate for Alva, who has more experience in archeology, to direct it.

Alva held the lamp, Gordon and Feng Ying were guarding him on his left and right sides respectively, and Anhiljian was responsible for guarding the rear. The group of people carefully stepped into the dark entrance.

They followed the steps and went all the way down.

The steps were not too long, and after a minute or two, they reached the bottom.

"Floor one hundred and three, including the height of the stage, it has descended about thirty meters and advanced about forty meters." Alva muttered in his mouth, and he didn't know whether he was reporting or talking to himself.

Suddenly, there was some "whispering" movement above their heads.

The hunters looked up at the other side at the same time. Ancil's finger was already on the trigger of the heavy ballista.

"Don't be in a hurry to fire, it's not like a large creature." Gordon turned his head and said.

"Ji Ga!"

Amidst the ear-piercing screams, a shadow with golden reflection swooped down and rushed towards Alva who was holding the lamp.

Just when it was about to bite Alva, Gordon suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed it, and slammed it to the ground.

The winged creature was stronger than he thought. Not only was it not crushed to death, it was also fluttering and preparing to fly again. Gordon quickly stepped on it and firmly stepped on it.

Even so, it continued to use its sharp wing claws, claws, and even teeth to tear and bite, trying to fight back.

Of course, these attacks fell on the [Crazy Pattern] armor and could not even scratch the surface.

Gordon, who could barely see the monster's appearance clearly through the light of the insect cage, muttered, "Bat? Such a big bat?"

After coming back to his senses, Alva moved the lantern to the monster, took a look and said: "Ah, it's the Scale Striker, a type of flying dragon that has been extremely miniaturized in order to adapt to the environment.

The color of this one is probably the result of specialization and mutation in the Golden Country.

It probably has nothing to do with the ruins themselves, they just came in and used this place as their nest. "

"This thing can be considered a flying dragon?" Feng Ying kicked the creature that looked like a big bat in disbelief.

"Biologically speaking, yes." Alva glanced at the golden-scale striker a few more times regretfully, "If we didn't have to explore the ruins, I would definitely capture it."

After confirming that this was not a dangerous creature, at least not to a hunter, Gordon let go of his feet and let it fly away in panic.

Gordon pinched his chin as he looked at the miniature flying dragon that flapped its wings and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

"I suddenly had a bold idea, which may greatly improve the efficiency and safety of our exploration of the Golden Land, and can even largely ignore the threat of the Glorious Dragon."

"Tell me about it?" An Xil looked over.

"Whether it's the Earth Line Cave or this Golden Land, they are quite spacious, right? Can we bring the pterodactyl down too?"
