'Please help me...stop it...'

……Who is speaking?

'That child will guide you...'

……Who are you?

'I am……'

"Is it that dream again?"

When he woke up, Fujimaru Ritsuka thought back to his dream last night and murmured.

Having had the same dream for two consecutive days, even she would not be so dull as to think it was just a coincidence.

Based on her experience yesterday and her understanding of the world, the 'little guy' mentioned by the mysterious being in the dream may be referring to the Nergigante, Bie Bie Zi.

After all, yesterday, under the guidance of the Nergigante, she and Meluzina came to the site where the hunters fought the Lava Dragon, and successfully prevented the Lava Dragon from entering the earth's veins, leading to a future where the ecology of the New World would be destroyed.

Of course, since she still had the same dream last night, it meant that even if she defeated the Molten Dragon, the real problem had not yet been solved.

But it happened that she knew why the Molten Mountain Dragon did not follow the previous route into the Miasma Valley, but planned to enter the earth veins.

She also knows what the real source of the problem is.

The question now is, who was the person who conveyed the message to her in the dream?

...In fact, this is not a difficult question to reason about.

First of all, as someone who has played games, she knows that Nergigante is not only the brutal, terrifying, and powerful ancient dragon killer described by hunters, but also, like hunters, is the protector of the ecosystem and one of nature's means of protecting itself.

One of the evidences is that as an ancient dragon, Nergigante does not have the ability to change the ecological environment as easily as other ancient dragons, and will regard other ancient dragons as its hunting targets.

However, hunters' maintenance of the ecosystem is more about human beings' considerations for the survival and reproduction of their own groups, and they actively choose to live in harmony with nature.

Therefore, hunters who are now transformed into ecosystem protectors are unexpected guardians of nature.

From this aspect, Nergigante is truly bred by nature and is truly a means for nature to protect itself.

After understanding this, combined with the fact that the Nergigante suddenly woke up from its sleep yesterday and then flew straight towards the Molten Dragon, she could boldly make some guesses -

For example, was Nergigante told in a dream that "The Molten Dragon is heading to the earth's veins and may destroy the ecology of the New World," so he could find him directly?

For another example, is the mysterious being who informed it about the Lava Mountain Dragon the ecosystem it protects?

That is, natural will?

If this is the case, then is the mysterious being who talked to her in the dream also the natural will of the New World?

"...It would be nice if we could have a further conversation."

Thinking of this, she said with some regret.

Because so far, all she had made were baseless guesses, which only gave rise to more questions.

If there really is a natural will, then why did the other party come to her instead of the hunters?

Is it because of natural will that Nergigante is so close to her?

Why did the other party let Nergigante guide her instead of telling her directly what help she needed?

If she could stay awake in her dream and chat with the other party for a few more words, maybe everything would be answered, but it doesn't seem possible at the moment.

I don’t know if the other party is unwilling or unable to do it.

"well."

In the end, Fujimaru Ritsuka sighed and decided to temporarily put aside the complicated thoughts in his mind and take a step at a time.

"Anyway, let's get up first."

After making such a decision, she immediately felt much more relaxed. She looked at Melyuzina who was still sleeping next to her, smiled softly and called out:

"Good morning, Melyuzina, it's time to get up."

…

…

Because of the Nergigante, the Commander-in-Chief arranged for them to be in the room closest to the deck. If anything happens to the Nergigante, they can come to the deck to deal with it immediately.

Bai Feng, the leader of the fifth group, lives next to their room.

At the same time as they were going out, Bai Fu also happened to walk out of the room, so Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and greeted her:

"Good morning!"

"..."

Bai Feng nodded to her kindly and said nothing.

Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little dumbfounded.

In fact, she is very interested in Bai Feng's existence.

Because judging from the current situation, she should be the protagonist in the game, the invincible Blue Star, and she is also the character controlled by the players.

In a sense, isn't this who I am? !

But it is a pity that Bai Feng's performance is exactly the same as in the game plot. At last night's banquet, she was silent and silent, unable to communicate at all, which made people wonder if she was mute.

But according to her partner Re Ya, Bai Feng can actually talk, but he just doesn't like talking.

Well, okay.

Speaking of which, in this case, Reya is aibo!

Judging from the astonishing amount of food the other party showed last night and the behavior of not stopping eating from the beginning to the end, there should be no mistake.

Looking at Bai Feng's leaving figure, Meliuzina looked a little strange and said to her:

"Master, this guy should be the strongest among this group of people, and he is much stronger than everyone else."

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said:

"I know."

After washing up, she and Melyuzina came to the deck and immediately saw the Nergigante sleeping soundly on the deck with bubbles in his nose.

Dragons are originally a sleepy race, and so are the ancient dragons in this world. However, they can sleep peacefully under the watch of countless people. It can only be said that the quality of sleep is really good.

The area outside the Nergigante's warning range was already densely packed with hunters, curiously and cautiously watching the Nergigante's sleeping form.

They are all elite hunters from guilds in the Old World, and many of them have seen or even come into contact with ancient dragons. But for them, a situation like this is still a novel sight that they can boast about for a lifetime.

Among them, there were many editors who were busy writing notes in their notebooks while watching, and Re Ya was also one of them.

And when Fujimaru Ritsuka and Melyuzina appeared, many curious eyes immediately turned from Nergigante to them, helping Nergigante attract a considerable amount of firepower.

"Okay, we're almost at the stronghold. What are you doing here!"

"Commander-in-Chief!"

The commander-in-chief's voice came from behind everyone, startling many people. The screams and the sound of everyone's armors clashing together instantly made the quiet deck noisy.

"...?"

So under this noisy sound, Nergigante opened his eyes in a daze.

"?!"

It looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Melyuzina in front of it without paying attention, and then looked at the hunters in the distance who wanted to escape but had no time to escape, so they chose to stay still, and bared their teeth and roared:

"Roar--!"

"Are you going to attack?"

"Standing too close to draw the weapon!"

"Run!"

The roar of the Nergigante was like a starting gun, and the hunters who were frozen on the spot suddenly became confused, and then shouted "Run!" ’ The birds and beasts dispersed, leaving only Fujimaru Ritsuka, Melyuzina, the Commander-in-Chief, Shirofu and Reya still standing in place.

After calling out, Nergigante made no other moves, but lay down again, preparing to take a nap.

But at this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka and others suddenly saw a huge ship sitting on the cliff in the distance——

The investigation team base [Star] has arrived.
