hunt and eat

"Hey~" Facing the blue badge with four stars on his chest, Guta smiled reservedly.

For more than two months in a row, they hunted a large number of monsters above G rank, and even faced the ancient dragon species of Tianhuilong, a natural disaster level, at the end. Under the submission of multiple reports, it has been raised again and again.

Although judging from Tianhuilong's last move to kill Hongguang Tianhuilong, the opponent seems to have never taken it seriously from the beginning to the end, but things like this don't need to be written in the mission report, everyone tacitly That's it.

Longli Academy is also quite reasonable in this regard, and even actively cooperated with the hunters, adding a lot of ink to the difficulty of the task.

It has to be said that the brains of these cultural people are easy to use.

After a simple touch of ink, the relatively straightforward final battle, which ended abruptly, was completely portrayed as a magnificent and epic confrontation of fate.

All in all, with the large number of merit points given by the disaster investigation mission, the Canglan Star team was instantly qualified enough to be promoted to a four-star team, and at the instigation of Guta, the assessment was carried out on the same day.

Coincidentally, the examiners this time were the four five-star hunters from the last three-star trial.

Ever since, under the watchful eyes of countless teams to be assessed, the Canglan Star team had just finished greeting the examiners with their front feet, and held the four-star badges on their back feet, and was persuaded to leave by several examiners like a plague god.

Facing the protests of the other hunters, the bearded examiner, the captain, just dropped a word, and all voices of doubt were silenced.

"That guy just participated in ancient dragon hunting a while ago, and he is still the main force."

So he is a fierce man who can hunt ancient dragons?

That's fine.

"Look for a place where we can chat while eating?" Gu Ta smiled and patted the bulging purse on his waist.

Now he is rich!

"Then... the smell of fish is coming?" Qiye pointed to the huge signboard of the smell of fish not far away, squinting her eyes with a teasing expression on her face.

Upon hearing this, Guta was instantly discouraged and turned his head to one side in embarrassment.

"I think... [Meat Eater], it's pretty good."

Compared with fish flavor, the pricing over there is already very conscientious.

Of course, the most important thing is that there is a lot of food there!

……

In a subterranean grotto somewhere unknowable

A large number of withered corpses, mixed with muddy flesh and blood, and piles of white bones filled almost every corner of this cave, which was located in the coastal suburbs and was almost as big as two football fields.

The moist sea breeze blows in from the cracks of the cave from time to time, but it can't dispel the yellow plague that is full of rancid smell floating on the top of the cave.

"Roar!"

The roar of the dragon sounded from far and near.

Accompanied by the sound of dull footsteps and the sound of scales rubbing against the rock wall, a figure gleaming with silver light walked slowly into the cave.

【What a rare visitor】

At the same time, a huge and skinny black figure slowly stood up from the mountain of scarlet corpses.

It was a strange monster covered in white mold and covered with a layer of rotten skin or carrion, which could not even be seen clearly.

[Hazard, you once said that you can make me stronger? 】

Suppressing the disgust in his heart, Silver Fire Dragon lowered his head and let out a dull dragon roar.

【Oh?interesting……】

The monster named Hazzard slowly approached his head. He didn't know if it was the position of the nose or the eyes, and it moved a few times.

【I smell...the smell of hatred】

The strange hissing sound echoed in this grotto full of miasma and corpses.

Silver Fire Dragon resisted the sadness and anger in his heart, suppressed his voice and shouted:

[What price do I need to pay? 】

During the time when it first entered the realm of natural disasters, it once circled the continent and started an adventure with its partner that was not too long.

The strange and inexplicable monster in front of him, who called himself Hazzard, was encountered during that period.

Even looking at it now, its strength is terrifying, but what is even more frightening is its suspicious rhetoric of "sharing power".

There is nothing you can get for nothing.

Especially strength, the most precious thing that is enough for you to survive in this world.

All the gifts of fate have already been secretly marked with prices.

Although Yin Huolong had never heard of this sentence, he also understood the similar meaning.

At that time, after it refused, I thought it would be attacked by Hazzard, but I didn't expect that the other party just left a sentence "you can come to it at any time", and then let them go.

And time flies, almost forty springs and summers have passed.

If it weren't for the hatred of his only daughter being killed by a human hunter, and the anger that his own strength is hard to revenge, he would not have come here to find this old monster with malicious intentions.

【cost?No no no...]

The sound like the hiss of a snake and the cry of a night owl sounded again.

Hazzard was condescending, lowering his bluish-black head covered in countless white mold spots, looking at the silver fire dragon below him.

[This is a gift... a gift from our great, supreme, hateful and hateful king of the end! 】

The hysterical roar of venom, as well as the other party's wildly waving rotting wings with a faint silver light, made the silver fire dragon involuntarily back a few steps.

this old guy...

Silver Fire Dragon looked at the increasingly dense yellow-green miasma around him with fear, and kept on alert all the time.

After a long time, maybe he calmed down, or maybe he just hid his crazy side again.

The monster covered in corpse skin slowly raised a long and skinny claw with completely dislocated joints.

At the end of the claw, a wisp of black flame is burning wantonly with the surrounding plague as firewood.

【Swallow it, and you will fall into a deep sleep of almost sixty alternate white nights】

[When you wake up again, the hatred and killing intent towards human beings will completely melt into your blood]

[Then you will get that power that is enough to crush everything!] 】

Staring at the black flames full of ominous writing, Silver Fire Dragon hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to accept.

He opened his mouth wide to inhale, and the flames were directly swallowed by him.

More than ten seconds later, with the scream of the silver fire dragon, countless black flames covered the whole body of the silver fire dragon in an instant along the curse-like fine lines.

The original silver-white scales turned into a deep black visibly with the naked eye.

After 3 minutes, the figure of the silver fire dragon disappeared, replaced by a large black cocoon standing in place, motionless.

The beating of the heart can be vaguely heard from inside.

【Finally, all the curses have been separated】

In the silence, the huge monster in rotten skin laughed indifferently.

The slender neck gradually bent, and the monster looked at the last bit of silver-gray scales faintly visible under the rotting skin, with no less hatred in its eyes.

In order to get rid of the curse that the black dragon cast on itself back then, it did not hesitate to feign death to escape, and even peeled off its own skin inch by inch.

But it is a pity that even so, there are still a small number of "gifts" remaining.

Fortunately, after decades of work, two qualified replacements were finally found.

Turning his head to look at the big black cocoon that the silver fire dragon turned into, and then at another cocoon-shaped object covered in countless corpses in the darkness deep in the cave, the monster let out a low growl.

【Heh, it doesn't matter whether it's a human being or an ancient dragon... Just continue to fight to the death like this】

[The only pity is that I can't see the upcoming grand performance]

After all, without any nostalgia, the monster dragged its rotten body and walked out of the cave bit by bit.

The sun, which had not been seen in decades, made the monster unable to open his eyes. At the same time, he felt a tingling pain on the surface of his skin.

At the same time, I heard the sound of undulating waves hitting the reef.

Looking back at the mainland behind him for the last time, the monster sneered.

Then he waved his dilapidated wings, the bones of which could be seen inside, wrapped in miasma all over the sky, and slowly flew away towards a certain direction deep in the sea.

Volume Four Tianyuan Breakthrough

Chapter 1 Don't put on that pretense, you salted fish village chief!

Jieyun Village in the early morning is as quiet and peaceful as ever.

The sun shines on the mottled stone steps, and between Zhu Yan's pillars and houses, there is an inconspicuous but hard to ignore warm color.

Marutori's chirping sounded intermittently, but it was completely covered up by the voices of people gradually sounding from all over the place.

At the end of the hill, huge ancient trees stand upright on the top of the hill as they did a hundred years ago, casting a large and generous shadow.

Along with the children's laughter, the maple leaves danced in the breeze.

After greeting the villagers I met from time to time, the blond girl with a side ponytail walked towards the gate of the village with a simple giant bow intertwined with black and white on her back.

Her steps were brisk, and she was obviously in a good mood.

From a distance, the girl saw three familiar figures, three big and one small.

"Niya, long time no see, hee hee~" Without saying a word, the red-haired girl, who was two meters tall, gave her a warm hug.

"Weiwei, it's okay, I'm almost out of breath." Nia broke away from Weiwei's embrace in some embarrassment, her face full of helplessness.

This girl is getting better and better.

"Nia, I feel that you have become a lot stronger, meow." Feeling the breath of the girl, Ai Lumao said in amazement.

Compared to five months ago, Nia's aura was more than three times stronger.

Is this also an improvement brought about by archery?

"Jojo, you too."

Looking at the cat orc who was almost up to her waist and was so big that she no longer looked like an Elu cat, Nia said with a smile.

Then, she pointed to the side, a pair of wings grew from behind for a while, and the dragon horns on the top of her head were retracted for a while, and white thorns appeared from time to time.

"what's going on?"

"Oh, Miejue is not quite used to her ability yet. Guta asked her to practice more if she has nothing to do, and try to master it before the trial begins."

Qiaoqiao flashed a thorn that flew straight out calmly, and then explained in a low voice what happened to the fourth stage of xialonghua.

Nodding clearly, Nia turned her head and cast her gaze at the tall figure leaning on the pillar at the entrance of the village.

"Why are you growing tall again~" the girl complained.

"It's out of my control."

Before he knew it, the ancient tower, which had grown to two meters three and close to two meters four, touched the back of his head helplessly.

After the battle of Tianhuilong, the experience feedback received allowed the ability of [The Body of the Ancient One] to be upgraded by two levels on the spot, reaching the level of LV35.

[Gluttonous Body] This ability has also jumped two levels, reaching LV4.

This caused the ancient tower to grow more than 20 centimeters in the early morning of the next day. I had to entrust my teammates to go to the clothing store to help buy new clothes, and I also entrusted the blacksmith to modify the size of the armor.

"I also said that today, it's rare that I didn't see you on the training ground. It turned out that you came out to meet your partners."

In the distance, a calm voice came from a high place.

When everyone looked up, it was Yun Xiao who hadn't seen him for a long time.

Oh no, it's time to call Jieyun Village Chief.

At this time, she changed from her seriousness in the past, with a gentle smile on her face, and she was not wearing hunting equipment, but a simple daily outfit.

It is worth mentioning that the ancient pagoda did not see behind her, the huge white jade bow that was said to be a weapon inherited from Jieyun Village.

"Senior Yunxiao, long time no see."
