Chapter 1290: Insert an Eye
At the same time that Feng Ying jumped into the sea, Gordon and Ancier came to the frozen canyon.
As the two most outstanding hunters in Yuechen Stronghold and even the entire investigation team, the tasks they undertake are naturally the most dangerous.
They need to go deep into the frozen canyon to detect whether there are any signs of ice dragons appearing here, and at the same time confirm the situation of the wind drifting dragons.
The first one is just that, but the latter task is somewhat inexplicable.
This strange task came from the concerns of the leader of the third phase of the regiment.
A few months ago, Feng Ying and others witnessed the Ice Dragon attacking and driving away the Fengdiao Dragon on the northern coast of the New World.
This proves that the Ice Dragon is capable of suppressing groups of Wind-Drifting Dragons.
At first, when the leader of the third group mentioned this, Gordon and the others didn't pay much attention.
It is not surprising that an ancient dragon has the ability to suppress a group of flying dragons.
But then, the leader of the third group further proposed another possibility.
——Since the ice dragon has the ability to suppress the entire group of wind-drifting dragons, it means that it can completely drive away the group of wind-drifting dragons that have settled in the frozen canyon, and even drive them specifically to a certain place. direction.
Some slow-reacting hunters may ask "So what?", but Gordon and Ancil, who have personally experienced the Thunder Wolf Dragon disaster in Jieyun Village, cannot ask such a question.
Where will the group of wind-drifting dragons that were driven out of the frozen canyon and forced to go south most likely go to find a new nesting site?
Of course you need to find a place that is spacious, flat, relatively warm, and has ample food resources.
In the entire Everfrost Land, is there any place more suitable than Yuechen Stronghold?
It is not that the ancient dragon species intentionally or unintentionally expel other monsters as their "attack" on the vanguard of the human fortress, it has not happened. Rather, it is very common.
Aware of this danger, Yuechen Stronghold immediately entered a state of alert.
Most of the hunters who were sent out to investigate the ice dragon's whereabouts were recalled, and the number of sentries and patrols increased.
Part of the underground warehouses were emptied out and prepared as emergency shelters for non-combatants to take refuge.
Send airships to the Star Stronghold to transport more heavy-duty crossbows, restraint bombs and other anti-aircraft weapons, and also request the commander-in-chief to send more hunters for support.
These preparations may not be used in the end, but it is much better than being helpless when a large number of flying dragons attack.
The boots are covered with fur that prevents moisture and sinking, and he jumps off the sled.
Gordon twisted his waist and moved his neck. Pork Chop also stretched his legs and tail beside him. One person and one cat moved their joints, making bursts of crackling sounds.
“I’ve heard you say that there are many wind-drifting dragons gathering here, but this is the first time I’ve come here in person.” Gordon sighed as he looked at the entrance of the frozen canyon not far away.
Not to mention that he had never been here before. Except for his first arrival in the ice field, the mission to establish diplomatic relations with the Beast Tangle Clan, and the subsequent rescue of the swordsman master, he had never even left the stronghold.
On the contrary, pork chops have the opportunity to go out all day long.
According to the swordsman masters and others, Pork Chop can even be a high-level hunter as long as he carries enough explosive bombs
High in the sky, there is a wind drifting dragon hovering.
Gordon grinned, eager to try, "Are you able to stretch your muscles?"
"Why are you moving your muscles? Are you planning to rush into the canyon and chop down all those twenty or thirty wind-drifting dragons?" Ancil threw an invisibility suit to Gordon.
"Hurry up and put it on before you are discovered. This is a covert reconnaissance operation, not a crusade mission."
"Tsk." Gordon kneaded his palms and put on the suit. Snow-white invisibility clothing specially modified to adapt to the ice field environment.
"Zhupa, you should sneak in and investigate the situation first." Anhil lowered his head and said to Zhupa.
"Okay." The pig tightened the equipment and weapons on his body and ran out.
Ancier looked at Gordon, who looked like his hands were itchy, and warned again: "Those are thirty wind-drifting dragons, not winter pterosaurs.
Cut all your big swords bare. You can't cut that much. If you take action later, hold it in now."
Gordon sighed and released his palm.
Since becoming a nine-star hunter, the opportunities to hunt freely have become increasingly rare.
Everyone regards him as a decisive weapon such as the dragon-killing cannon, and the ancient dragon species has almost become the "lowest threshold" to pull him out of the warehouse.
After finding a hiding place and hiding the sled, Gordon and Ancil stayed quietly for dozens of minutes while the pork chop emerged from the snow in front of them.
Shaking off the snow dust stuck to his hair, Zhupa said: "The wind-drifting dragons are still the same meows. They show no signs of leaving, and they don't seem to be wary of anything.
I don’t think the Ice Dragon is around here. Meow, at least not yet."
Anhil breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good news, at least Yuechen will have more time to prepare."
Ge. Noboru didn't know whether he should be happy or sad.
If it was just a simple covert reconnaissance mission, Pork Chop could do it alone.
Then what is the purpose of him, the nine-star hunter, and Anxier, the eight-star hunter, coming here?
Just so that if Zhupa discovers the whereabouts of the Ice Dragon during the reconnaissance process, the two of them will take action and try to deal with the Ice Dragon directly here, and then there will be no trouble.
Unfortunately, I was not caught.
"So, are we going back now?" Gordon asked looking at Ancil who stood up.
"Otherwise, what else do you want to do? Pick two winter flower buds and take them back to make food for your Muti?"
Gordon was choked and speechless.
“I have a suggestion, meow!” Pig Chop suddenly raised his paw.
“Tell me?”
“Our reconnaissance like this is just a matter of luck. In order to avoid being attacked from the air, we can only rush on a sled, which is a waste of time.
Maybe we can leave a few pairs of eyes in the canyon, so that if the ice dragon really comes here to drive away the wind drifting dragons, we can get the news faster. "
"Who will be the eyes? "Gordon asked with some interest.
"Anyway, it's not you. With your size, it would be better for you to kill all the Feng Piaolong than to let you lurk and monitor. An Xil glanced at him sideways and said, "Hunting cats are the most suitable."
Have Panlan learned the tactics of the secret team and asked him to bring two cats? ”
“There is a more suitable candidate, meow! "Zhupa scratched his beard and said, "How about the Beast Tangle Clan, meow? They are indigenous orcs and are used to lurking in the snow.
The body is also small, so it is not easy to attract the attention of the wind drifting dragon in the canyon.
The question is how to contact Meow quickly? "
Anhil thought for a while and said: "Give them a few flares. When a warning is needed, let them run to the top of the mountain and fire the flares.
When the weather is good and the visibility is high, you should be able to barely see the moon.
And they can also ride ice wolves, even if they are running over, their speed is not slow. ”
"They should be able to meow. I'll ask them to come over and meow."
Pigpa nodded his head, took out the rescue smoke from his bag, and lit it.
Condensed black smoke rose into the air and was very conspicuous under the clean sky. Gordon and his party continued to wait.
After a long time, finally a few beasts from the Clan came running over.
These little guys looked a little embarrassed and seemed to be injured, but when they saw the rescuers, they still came with weapons in hand and were very loyal.
Seeing them looking around with weapons in hand, wary of non-existent enemies, Gordon and the others felt a little embarrassed.
Gordon took the initiative to hand over a few bottles of recovery medicine and carry food.
Anhil spoke with a strange-faced clan accent and was not very fluent, but could barely use the orc language, and communicated with the beast-tangled clan.
He did not immediately tell them their needs, but first asked about the situation of the beast entangling tribe and whether they needed help.
The Beast Tangle clansmen chatted with him for a while, and Ancil's expression became strange.
"What happened?" Gordon asked.
"They encountered an ice collapse before and were separated from a companion. They are currently looking for it."
"We can help with this!" Gordon said immediately: "Before asking others, always You also have to show some attitude.”
Actually, he just doesn’t want to go home so early.
"Well, the other thing is, the names of these little guys are really, quite unique." (End of Chapter)
