Chapter 655 Prohibition of Entering - [Sky Mountain] Forbidden Area

After three full days of recuperation in Yanhuo Village, the Canglan Star team officially arrived at their destination in a flying boat.

Three months ago, [Sky Mountain] was officially listed as a forbidden area by the guild.

Of course, if you really want to say Sky Mountain, it is actually relatively inaccurate.

Except for the lofty mountain that stretched straight to the sky from a distance, even the area with a radius of a hundred miles was classified as a forbidden area by the guild.

"I'm sorry, little brother, I can only send you here." The old captain Zhepu who was wearing a one-eyed eyepatch said a little embarrassedly.

Compared with the last time he went to the natural disaster trial site, the old man seemed to be a little older,
"If we go any further, the airspace will not be very stable. We can only stop in front of this area."

"You're welcome, it's been a great help to be sent here." Guta shook his head and said with a smile.

Behind him, a kind of companion is carrying a large amount of supplies and equipment, doing inspections before the battle.

It is also a coincidence that when Guta and the others were replenishing supplies in Yanhuo Village, they happened to meet the [Barefoot], which was temporarily resting here, so they directly entrusted the captain Zhepu to transport them based on the principle that it is better to build the old than the new. Go to Sky Mountain Forbidden Area.

"I didn't seem to see your granddaughter this time?" Nia, who was carrying a huge backpack taller than her, scanned the empty deck back and forth, and asked a little confused.

"Hey~" With a long sigh, the old captain habitually wanted to take a puff of his pipe, but in the next second he remembered that this old man seemed to have been accidentally smashed by him a few months ago, so he felt even more depressed right now.

"After that girl met you, she argued every day to become a hunter, and then ran away from home after a fight with me... I guess she is still receiving training from the guild in some initial town."

"Well, it's either Paley or Garrett, and that girl knows these two places... She still wants to be a hunter with this little knowledge.

Although Zhepu cursed fiercely, both Guta and Nia could tell that the old man still cared about his granddaughter.

"The training of the guild's reserve hunters? I miss it so much~" Weiwei said lazily leaning on the railing, yawning.

Compared to Guta and Nia, two self-taught hunters who had never experienced novice training, Wei Wei had experienced a complete hunter training course.

From the use of weapons, physical exercise to fighting monsters, the instructors in the training camp told them almost everything they could, which can be called a model of systematic teaching.

Even a lazy guy like Weiwei has more or less mastered most of the basic skills of a hunter after a round of training.

Although it was completely abandoned soon after passing the hunter assessment, it was not picked up again until they met Guta and the others.

"Well, it's not a bad thing to want to be a hunter." Guta said casually, sensing the chaotic aura of a large number of creatures in the forest below.

Zhepu curled his lips and said with a wrinkled face: "I'm not opposed to her being a hunter, but I'm afraid that this child will be a stickler, so at least find a few reliable friends to form a team... Otherwise, if she gets messed up one day, she shouldn't be messed with." monster, who will collect her body then?"

Guta noticed that when he said this, Zhepu subconsciously looked at his wooden leg, and it seemed that there were some stories in it.

"You also know that child, she has a stubborn temper, a bad mouth, and she does things carelessly... I originally wanted her to go to an old friend's hunting group as a trainee to sharpen her temper, but this girl has a bad temper. When she came up, she felt that I looked down on her, and ran away after arguing with me."

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to say for a while.

Where have you seen this scene?
Seriously, kids are rebellious these days, right?
"Yamanashi's hellish temper, even my own grandfather can't stand it sometimes, let alone other people, and now I'm probably alone."

"She's not a genius hunter like you. What's the difference between performing a mission alone and courting death, eh."

During the conversation, Zhepu took the helm and controlled the flying boat to wander around outside the forest for a few times.

After guarding around the bottom and confirming that no monsters were found, the flying ship fell a little bit, and quickly stopped behind a sunny hillside.

"You don't need to worry too much about the Yamanashi matter. The guild usually deliberately arranges hunters with better personalities to partner with them at the same time." said the captain suddenly.

"Ah? Is there still such a saying? Why hasn't the old man heard of it before?"

With a faint smile, Guta waved his hands without looking back: "This is an idea that a fool came up with 50 years ago. It's an unwritten rule within the guild. It's normal if you don't know."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhepu to ask any more questions, he jumped down and landed on the ground.

"See you later then."

……

Compared with the virgin forests in other areas, the environment near Tiantian Mountain may be affected by the local abnormal climate and phenomena, and most of them appear tall and sparse.

Coupled with the towering Sky Mountain in the distance, with no end in sight, it gives people a sense of loneliness and desolation.

"Speaking of which, isn't it winter?" Weiwei reached out to catch a few small snowflakes falling from the sky, and looked up at the somewhat dark sky, "It's getting cold so fast this year."

"When we were in our hometown, winter came a lot earlier than usual. It seems that there is no sign of this in Guanghai." Nia left a mark under a tree and took the conversation casually.

After all, it is the first time here, so it is necessary to make a mark from time to time.

Qiao Qiao, who was at the end of the team, turned his head and looked at the weeds that were almost half the height of his eyes, and the pale frost on them, and said:

"The climate here seems to be very cold, but apart from frost, unexpectedly there is not much snow."

They had done their homework before they came, and they knew that the environment on Sky Mountain was much harsher than the outside world.

Now it is more or less the first clue.

"Maybe it's not time yet, or the humidity in the air is too low." Guta was still wearing the slim windbreaker that was about to reveal his collarbone, as if he couldn't feel the cold, walking barefoot in the rough woodland .

Neither gravel nor thorns seemed to be able to harm his body, and before the soles of his feet fell, he was pressed down inch by inch by an invisible force field.

After advancing a certain distance toward the depths of the forbidden area, Mie Jin stared at the ground for a long time, and suddenly said: "There are many traces of monster activities."

Hearing her words, Qiao Qiao deliberately bent down and inspected the footprints on the ground.

The footprints are messy and finely divided, with various sizes, and the old and new traces are not consistent. It can be preliminarily judged that they are not left by the same batch.

"Recently, there should be quite a few groups of monsters fleeing towards the Sky Mountain, most likely to avoid those berserk monsters." Qiao Qiao glanced at the small guide insect lantern on his waist, and after confirming that there was no response, he continued: "It's almost like a great migration."

Before he finished speaking, several strange-looking black birds flew in the sky.

They didn't fly very fast, but they surprisingly didn't make any sound, like owls.

Nia withdrew her gaze little by little, and said in an inexplicable tone: "Hate Bird..."

"There seems to be a lot of dead bodies nearby."
