Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

Different from their slow progress when exploring, Nergigante seemed to have a clear goal, only occasionally stopping to look around to confirm the direction, and then continued to move forward at a fast speed.

So after following the Nergigante for a while, they met the leader who entered here to investigate before them.

"...Ritsuka?!"

Suddenly seeing the silhouette of Nergigante appear, the Grand Leader was startled, and then immediately saw Ritsuka Fujimaru and Melyuzina following closely behind, their expressions full of surprise and confusion.

But now Fujimaru Ritsuka obviously didn't have the time to stop to chat with the other party and explain in detail, so he could only say quickly:

"Biemeizi seems to have discovered something!"

"Ah, what?"

The leader was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening. When he saw Fujimaru Ritsuka and others who had already passed by him and were gradually moving away, they also quickly chased after them.

After catching up with Fujimaru Ritsuka, he continued to ask:

"What's going on?"

But faced with the problem, Fujimaru Ritsuka could only shake his head and looked at the Nergigante Dragon in front of him:

"I don't know. Anyway, it seems to have noticed something, and it suddenly became like this."

"Did you notice anything?"

The grand leader was thoughtful, and then asked:

"Why didn't Bai Feng and Re Ya come together? Haven't you guys met yet?"

"They were setting up camp outside and were preparing to report back to the base, so I came to investigate first."

The grand leader nodded and said no more, and the few of them silently followed the Nergigante.

After advancing like this for a while, suddenly, the Nergigante stopped again.

Just when they thought that Nergigante was just confirming its direction, the next moment, it let out a threatening roar——

"Roar--!!!"

At this time, they realized that something was wrong, and they suddenly became energetic and looked forward quickly.

It turns out that the reason why Nergigante stopped this time was because a figure appeared in front of it, blocking its path.

The other party looked like a middle-aged male from the Dragon Tribe. His hair was styled into long braids. He held a long stick-like weapon in his hand. He maintained a vigilant posture, vigilant and serious. Staring at the Nergigante.

At this time, the cloth strip wrapped around the opponent's weapon was still half hanging on the weapon, and there was a little cold sweat on the forehead. Obviously, the opponent did not expect to encounter a battle here, and it was a Nergigante.

Why does Nergigante appear here! ?

While one man and one dragon were confronting each other, the leader standing behind Nergigante saw the other party's appearance clearly and waved happily:

"Hey, Ovie!"

"...Grand leader!?"

Looking at the grand leader standing behind the Nergigante, the eyes of the male draconian named Ovi were full of doubts.

…

…

Ovi is also a hunter from the investigation team and a member of the first phase of the team. He is a friend of the Grand Leader for decades.

And just like the Grand Leader's choice, he also conducts investigations alone all year round, maintaining a distant relationship with the investigation team.

Therefore, he obviously does not know what happened to Fujimaru Ritsuka and his party.

"...Nergigant, the guardian of nature...The reason why the Molten Dragon deviated from its planned end...Visitors from another world...Precognitive dreams..."

Ovi stood there, closed his eyes, and murmured everything the grand leader had just told him, as if he was trying his best to digest the huge and astonishing information.

After a while, he opened his eyes. After slowly exhaling, he first looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and others, and then at the Nergigante sitting obediently beside him. He smiled with emotion and said:

"I see, it's incredible that there is such a wonderful fate."

After sighing, he looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka again and said:

"My purpose here should be the same as yours."

"You should also understand that these crystals are the product of the energy released by the ancient dragons who died in the Miasma Valley and accumulated through the earth veins. This is also the reason for the formation of the Dragon Crystal Land you mentioned."

As he spoke, Ovi looked at the crystal above his head and said:

"But in the past few years, I suddenly felt that the energy flow in the Dragon Crystal Land and even the earth's veins began to become abnormal, so I have been investigating this abnormal phenomenon."

The dragon tribe has a long lifespan and a relatively small population. Compared with humans, some special individuals are occasionally born, or they can communicate with nature, or they are huge, or they can even resonate with ancient dragons, etc...

Although Ovi himself is not a very special Dragonoid individual, his perception of energy in nature is more sensitive than ordinary people, and he can even sense the flow of earth energy.

"I have only recently observed that the abnormal flow of energy in the earth's veins is not disorderly chaos, but seems to be gathering towards a certain location. After I observed the place where the energy gathered from the surface, I began to search in the earth's veins corridor. Explore where the anomaly lies.”

"If nothing else, it should be nearby."

Then Ove continued:

"And I guess that maybe it's not just a matter of energy accumulation. The reason why the Molten Dragon left the Miasma Valley and chose to go deep into the earth through the Earth Corridor was probably also attracted by that abnormal existence."

"Are you saying that even ancient dragons will be attracted?"

The grand leader was a little surprised when he heard this, and then he didn't know what he thought of. Then he looked at the Nergigante aside, wondering if the other party was also attracted.

Noticing the look in the Grand Leader's eyes, Ovi said:

"The opponent's attraction to the Molten Dragon that has ended its lifespan is probably to obtain the energy from the Molten Dragon, but the Nergigante Dragon probably won't."

"Ahaha, that's right!"

The grand leader scratched his head, laughed twice, and asked again:

"Tell me, what is that abnormal existence that keeps gathering energy?"

"……I have no idea."

After Ovi was silent for a moment, he shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"But what is certain is that it is definitely a powerful and dangerous existence, and it is a fatal threat to the ecology of the entire New World."

"Powerful and dangerous..."

The grand captain couldn't help but frowned and pondered. At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly said:

"Anyway, we have to stop it, right?"

She smiled at Ovi and the Grand Master:

"Since it is a problem that must be dealt with, we just need to think about how to solve it."

"More importantly, we still don't know what kind of existence the other party is. Now the place where the energy is gathered is nearby. No matter what, let's investigate first, right?"

"Forehead,"

Hearing this, the grand leader looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with some surprise. After looking at each other with Ovi, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, what Miss Lixiang said makes sense. The most important thing now is to do a good job in investigation. No matter how much you think about it, it's useless!"

Ovi also shook his head and said with a smile:

"That's right. No more information can be analyzed from the existing intelligence. Let's conduct an investigation first and then discuss how to solve the problem."

Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and patted the Nergigante on the head. It could no longer hold back anymore and quickly got up and continued to move quickly in a certain direction, followed by several people.

Finally, under the leadership of Nergigante, everyone came to an empty space similar to a cave.

The original magma disappeared, replaced by dragon crystals that covered almost the entire field of vision, and a calm underground river. The river was slightly fluorescent and filled with rich energy, just like liquid dragon crystals.

At this time, Ovi's face changed slightly and he said in a deep voice:

"It's right in front."
