Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 157: The rumors are getting more and more exaggerated, and the thick fog is rising

"Let me tell you, the breath of the ancient tree fire dragon king is so powerful that it can make the entire sea surface boil."

"Not only that, I heard that the flames wrapped around its body alone can turn the entire area into a high-temperature zone. It is no worse than the Flame King Dragon that was chasing us before."

"Yes, yes. He was able to kill all the sea dragons with just one bite. This kind of performance seems to be similar to that of an ancient dragon."

"..."

The sword hunter was drinking juice in the gathering hall, listening to the increasingly exaggerated rumors around the dining table, feeling extremely tired.

Why didn't he correct the editor in time?
This not only completely changed the name of the fire dragon leader, but even his battle records became more and more exaggerated. If this continues, wouldn't he become a super legend that could ignite the entire New World with just a wave of his wings?

Although he wanted to stop such things from happening, he even publicly stated more than once that the investigation records of the investigation team must be realistic and should not be exaggerated or belittled.

But in fact, he really underestimated the gossipy nature of human beings.

I don't know what was recorded in the compiler's notebook, but the legend about the fire dragon leader became more and more exaggerated, and his influence was insignificant. After the explanation on the same day, these people seemed to have forgotten it the next day and continued to exaggerate the other party's record.

By the end, he had given up.

"I'm tired. So let it be. I'm just a hunter anyway. Recording data, researching investigation reports, etc. are not my job. I'm wrong, so I'm wrong."

This result was not a good one for the always rigorous sword hunter, so he could only choose not to participate in this topic.

"Hey, what's wrong? Why are you here alone?"

The captain sat down next to the sword hunter, and soon, a Felynx came running over with a big plate full of grilled meat and fruits.

"The Fire Dragon Deter special barbecue set meal you requested, meow!"

"Hmm, it smells good. I heard that this special barbecue from Deter is not only effective for hunters, but even for fire dragons, it can increase the speed of physical recovery. Do you want some?"

The captain smelled the large piece of grilled meat with secret sauce on the plate. It looked very appetizing.

"No, I've tried it. This slightly spicy taste is not very suitable for me." The sword hunter shook his head and refused.

The captain didn't act pretentiously. He nodded, picked up his knife and fork, and began to eat with big mouthfuls.

With the first bite, the slightly spicy taste exploded on the taste buds, and then a warm current began to sweep through the whole body from the tail end as the meat was swallowed into the stomach. The whole person felt like he was in a lava zone, his body began to heat up, and sweat appeared on his forehead.

It's obviously not that spicy, but it feels like you've turned into a fire dragon and can spit out flames just by opening your mouth.

“Hiss~~, so cool!”

He is truly worthy of being the cat chef of the Fire Dragon Detel clan praised by Sita. The Grand Commander feels that as the heat continues to flow through his body, his physical strength becomes abundant and his energy begins to flourish.

It is said that these mutated Detels seem to have developed a special organ, and their tolerance to high temperature and fire energy has been greatly improved, and they have also become much more sensitive to energy.

Perhaps this is why they make excellent cat chefs.

The performance of the Grand Commander was noticed by the Tachi Hunter. Although Detel's special dishes were not very suitable for his taste, it had to be admitted that the cat food they made was indeed a top-notch product and was of great help to the hunter.

"Captain, I."

It seemed that the sword hunter felt that the captain was eating and it would be impolite for him to disturb him at this time, so he regretted speaking.

"What's wrong?" The commander-in-chief chewed the barbecue and looked at the sword hunter in confusion.

This hunter is a member of the first group, and they have known each other for more than ten years. The captain knows the whole person of the Tachi Hunter. He is cautious and calm, but his shortcoming is that he is not decisive enough and is a bit introverted.

If he didn't take the initiative to respond, I'm afraid this guy would never say what he wanted to say in the end.

"It's like this. The rumors about the fire dragon leader that have been circulating in the base these days are not entirely true. It..."

"Oh, you mean the fire dragon king of the ancient tree? I've heard about that, too. My, these guys just love to join in the fun and make trouble. They are simply exaggerating." The captain shook his head and picked up the fruit next to him to relieve the greasiness.

"Why you too?"

Although the Grand Master's words showed that he knew that the content spread by others was somewhat false, but didn't you personally take the title of "Fire Dragon Leader"? How come you have become the Fire Dragon King now?

However, since the top leaders of the investigation team knew that the current achievements were exaggerated, it was just a title and there was no need to dwell on it. "The Fire Dragon King is the Fire Dragon King." The sword hunter gave up. Since everyone was calling him that, he just went with the flow.

“As long as the scholars don’t do anything wrong, it will be fine. But since the Grand Commander knows that it is an exaggeration, there shouldn’t be any problem on the scholars’ side.” The sword hunter thought so, raised the glass and drank the juice in it.

On the first floor of the Star Stronghold, scholars were sorting out the notes brought back by the compilers during this period and recording some of the key contents.

"The king of the ancient tree fire dragons, whose flames are comparable to those of the legendary Flame King Dragon, defeated a group of sea dragons full of suspected special subspecies with just one breath of fire. There is only one report of an individual of this strength in the New World, and it may be a special individual with ancient dragon-level destructive power."

After the scholar finished recording, he closed the book with great satisfaction. He would hand it back to the Old World when the next communication ship arrives. This special individual of the Ancient Dragon level, I'm afraid those old colleagues in the Old World will be envious!

As for whether the records are true?

Haha, this was excerpted from the compiler's notes, and so many hunters in the stronghold are spreading this story, how could it be false!

In the back mountain of Xingchen stronghold, there is the medicinal plant cultivation area.

The two Elu cats were diligently watering the planted medicinal herbs, but they didn't know that outside the fence, a transparent figure was looking at the well-growing herbs, mushrooms and some insects inside with satisfaction.

Having lived here for so long, with Xialong's high IQ, he can understand many things just by looking at them.

He knew very well that both the snacks he often ate and the barbecue with special effects were inseparable from the things grown here. Therefore, after Xialong strolled around, apart from staying under the boat on the cliff, he came here to take a lunch break.

What stands out is a salted fish life.

At this moment, Xialong, who had a strong sense of perception, suddenly realized that something was flying towards here.

He immediately stood up and looked in that direction, only to see a poisonous bird seem to be passing by here. He then saw that there were New World-specific plants such as exploding walnuts and cotton spore grass in the plantation. Moreover, the plantation was located in the back mountain, and there were no decent defense measures nearby, only two petite Felyne cats.

So I wanted to come down and have a good meal.

This made Xialong a little conflicted.

The pair of big eyes looked at the two Elu cats who were still happily watering and pruning branches, and then looked at the poisonous bird that was starting to land at a low altitude in the distance.

After shaking my head, a lot of fog began to appear in the air.

Soon, the fog covered the entire Star Base and a large area around it.

"What happened? Why is it suddenly foggy?"

The hunters were a little puzzled. The climate in the New World has always been relatively stable, and it was not morning yet, so why was there such a thick fog?
The hunters who sensed something was wrong became alert and released their guide insects.

But for some reason, these guide insects seemed to be affected by the fog and kept flying around, as if they had lost themselves.

As a Xialong who has lived in the New World for many years and has not even been discovered by any ancient dragon, his poison fog is more diverse. It is just a piece of cake for him to create a poison fog that is not very dangerous but can affect the vision and perception of creatures.

Therefore, when everyone in the investigation team could only be secretly vigilant, Xialong flew up quietly, and after reaching the right position, its tongue shot out, and it tightly strangled the neck of the somewhat confused poisonous bird like a vine, making it unable to make any sound, and at the same time a ball of poisonous breath instantly rushed to its face.

With a sound of bone cracking, the poisonous bird's neck was easily twisted off. The horrible poison penetrated into its body and directly took its life.

Holding the body of the poisonous bird in its forelimbs, Xialong quietly shuttled through the thick fog, crossed the sky above the stronghold, flew to the coast, threw the body of the poisonous bird into the sea, then flew back to the bottom of the Star Ship calmly and yawned out of boredom.

If he hadn't noticed the goodwill shown to him by the investigation team, he wouldn't have bothered to take action.

I might as well modify the raised platform on the back of the cliff and build a nest there. This seems to be a good place for fishing. Xialong thought silently, and was a little undecided.

Without Xialong's control, the thick fog quickly dissipated, and the flying guide insects quickly calmed down and flew back to the insect cage on the hunter's waist.

The two Elu cats in the medicinal plant cultivation area looked at each other. The fog dissipated, and they still didn't know what had happened.

The entire investigation team checked from top to bottom and found that apart from the Star Barbecue and secret medicine that were usually missing from the warehouse, there was nothing unusual. Therefore, the matter passed with the thoughtful expressions of the top leaders of the investigation team.

Apart from the top leaders of the investigation team, only the Fire Dragon Detels who came to the Star Base breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other with lingering fear.

Presumably, the companions all knew what the inexplicable thick fog just now represented. As cats who had witnessed such a situation before, they were almost scared just now.

But fortunately, this time He didn't seem to have any ill intentions. He just dispersed the fog normally. No one knew which unlucky guy was targeted by Him.
