Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 265 Collection Completed
Seeing that the mantis began to look at the wood, Xiangxun also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that its guess was correct, and this gift finally made this new friend satisfied.

Only then did Aromatherapy have time to take a closer look at the surrounding environment.

I saw many unidentified pillars in the basin, with white silk threads wrapped around them. Upon closer inspection, I found that these pillars were built with the residues eliminated from the pile of rubbish with the help of aromatherapy last time.

Ge Mantis used these pillars and some newly collected stones and wood to transform the central part of the basin into a nest covered with silk screens. It looked messy yet somewhat regular.

"Eh? Is this the unwanted meow?"

Soon, Xiangxun saw a group of torn cocoons under the spider web. Xiao Tiao ran over and scratched it with his claws, and found that the silk threads were still in a very tough state except that they were a little dirty.

"Meow meow!!"

Immersed in its own thoughts, thinking about how to use these new Xucheng parts, the mantis was attracted by Xiangxun's rapid meow. When it saw Xiangxun constantly trying to drag the cocoon that it used to store food, it was a little confused for a moment.

"Meow! It's so heavy, meow! How can this thread be so heavy, meow!"

It's not that Xiangxun is not strong enough, but the silk thread of the mantis is different from the silk thread of ordinary spider webs. With layer upon layer of stacking, even if Xiangxun has received training from the follower cat and successfully graduated, it is not so easy for her to drag such a large silk cocoon.

Accompanied by a rustling sound, Mantis came behind Xiangxun. In the shadow, Xiangxun raised her head and loosened her claws. Under the nervous gaze of the cat watching from the side, she saw Mantis tilting his head and thinking for a while.

"Chirp~"

A ball of silk thread instantly wrapped Xiangxun into a caterpillar except for her head. The mantis chirped, as if explaining to Xiangxun how the cocoon came about.

"No meow! That's not what I meant, meow!! I want this thing, meow!!"

The aromatherapy girl, who was crawling on the ground like a catworm, felt like crying but had no tears.

The cats who saw this scene were almost scared. They thought Xiangxun was attacked. When they were about to take out their weapons and rush over to rescue her, they were stopped by Steak again.

"Aromatherapy didn't ask for help, meow!!"

On the way here, everyone had agreed that Aromatherapy would be responsible for the main communication. If it did not actively ask for help, then no matter what happened, the other cats would not rush forward to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

Therefore, even though Aromatherapy looked a little miserable at this time, Steak still resisted the urge to throw a flash bomb at her.

In the forest not far from the cats, the captain also held down the falcon that wanted to rush out.

"Don't worry. These Detels have all been trained as followers. They won't just watch their companions fall into danger without taking any action. That Detel might just be communicating with this unknown monster in some special way."

The Grand Commander's unreasonable strength suppressed Falcon tightly, and he didn't notice the gasp on Falcon's face.

"I understand, Commander. Could you please let go of your hand first?" Falcon felt as if his shoulder was stuck by something and he couldn't even move. While enduring the pain, he said helplessly.

"Oh, sorry!"

The captain quickly let go. He was a little anxious and couldn't control his strength for a moment.

Releasing his hand apologetically, the Grand Commander took out his notebook and began to draw an abstract picture based on the appearance of the mantis. On the other side, after untying the restraints on the aromatherapy, the mantis seemed to understand what the aromatherapy meant as it danced.

This little creature seemed to have developed a strong interest in this cocoon! When he thought of the things that the young mantises used to entertain themselves when they were bored in the mother's nest in the Great Ant Mound Wasteland, the mantis felt that he seemed to understand something.

Waving its forelimbs to interrupt Xiangxun's explanation, the mantis suddenly spit out silk threads continuously towards a branch beside it, and soon spit out a large ball of silk in circles.

When the mantis broke off the branch that was wrapped in silk thread and looked like a giant cotton ball and inserted it in front of Xiangxun, Xiangxun's eyes widened.

"That one is dirty, this new one is for you to play with."

That’s right, the toys of the young mantis are balls of silk thread!!

Looking at the dazed Aromatherapy, Mantis tilted its head and without thinking much, turned around and dragged the pile of wood brought by the cats into the forest. It had several new ideas for piecing together that needed to be verified immediately, and it really didn't have much energy to play guessing games with this little thing.

Looking at the mantis walking away, Xiangxun always felt that the other party seemed to have misunderstood something, but never mind, the most important thing on this trip was to collect enough white silk threads. She was originally worried that the number of silk threads would not be enough, but now looking at the spherical cocoon in front of her hanging on the thick branch, with a diameter of more than two meters, this was far beyond her initial expectations.

"Hurry, collect them quickly, meow!"

Xiangxun reacted and immediately called out to the other cats.

Soon, Mao Mao took out a special collecting knife and continued to cut the ball of silk thread, carrying it to the thief dragon, which then carried it into the upright big basket.

In less than half an hour, they were all put into the big basket along with the broken cocoon next to it.

The cats were almost exhausted after completing all this.

Although in this world, cats are very strong despite their small size, half an hour of high-intensity work still makes these formally trained cats feel very tired.

However, even though the physical fatigue made them very uncomfortable, their eyes, which were shining because they had exceeded their tasks, still showed their happy mood at the moment.

Xiangxun struggled to crawl into the big basket. She was also very tired. She glanced at the mantis that was still fiddling with something in the forest. She took a deep breath and meowed loudly a few times. She found that the mantis seemed to be immersed in its own world and ignored her. Xiangxun jumped into the basket with a little disappointment amid the shouts of her companions.

The female fire dragon circled in the sky and swooped down after receiving the information from the cats. They each grabbed one end of the big basket in tacit understanding, and flew high into the sky with the basket in the gusts of wind pressure.

The two female fire dragons knew very well that their trip this time was related to those fire dragon eggs, so they did not dare to delay for a moment and flew towards the ancient tree with all their strength.

As for the Grand Commander and the falcon who were still in the forest, they were ordered to be brought here, not taken back.

Looking at the female fire dragons gradually turning into black spots in the sky, the Grand Commander and Falcon looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Forget it, now that things have come to this, let's just stay here and observe this unknown monster carefully."

The Grand Commander was quite open-minded, and Falcon's mouth twitched, but he could only agree.
