Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 328 I Can’t Do It
Along with the famous scene of Flame King Dragon, the label of Mantis being invincible was also recorded in Xialong's mind.

According to Xia Guagua's analysis of her super intelligence, Mantis is the kind of existence that even the ancient dragon's super power cannot defeat.

Fortunately, although the Mantis is extremely powerful and the mechanical beast looks terrifying, it cannot fly, and its attack range is not long enough. Compared with the ancient dragon, its speed is not very fast.

So even though it's an existence that can't be defeated, you can still escape.

Therefore, two hundred years ago, Xia Guagua gave a relatively low assessment of the danger of Ge Mantis.

But now it’s different. He is no longer a Xialong that makes nests and wanders around, but a Xiaguagua with a formal organization and a fixed territory.

Therefore, the threat level of the Mantis to Him was suddenly raised to a very high level.

"Why is this guy here instead of staying underground in the Great Anthill Wasteland?"

Xialong's mind was racing, and he kept thinking whether he had any good way to deal with the mantis riot in the pavilion.

Little Xialong looked up at his old mother, then looked at Ge Mantis who was standing in the flow area and seemed very calm. His already growing little head keenly sensed that something was wrong.

After silently labeling the seemingly ordinary mantis as one that should not be provoked, he quietly retreated and protected his old mother in front of him.

At the completed conference table, the commander-in-chief heard a report that the Grand Commander had brought back a new "monster friend", and that something seemed to have gone wrong with the ancient tree, which owed this new friend a lot of debt.

He smiled bitterly and looked at the swordsmanship master beside him.

They were very happy that the captain could get along well with the large monsters. After all, this would have a great positive effect on the ecological research of the New World.

But being in debt is a real headache.

After all, there was no guarantee that every monster's emotions could be as stable as the Fiery Sun Dragon's, which meant that when facing the debts of these monsters, they had to put a lot of thought into preparing, which made the already short of supplies in the Star Stronghold even worse.

"Ahahaha, yo, Carlos, the swordsmanship master, I haven't seen you for a while. It seems that your mental state is not very good."

As soon as he spoke of the devil, the captain came up with his usual hearty smile, and teased Carlos' friend with his arm around his shoulder.

The commander-in-chief smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying anything. He glanced at the nonchalant Grand Commander and sighed, "Tell me about that 'new friend' and the debt."

After he finished speaking, the captain smiled helplessly and explained it quickly.

"The monster that even the Blazing Sun Dragon treats with kindness, the powerful monster named 'Gate Mantis' in your and Falcon's report two years ago."

The commander-in-chief rubbed his brow.

Although he had never seen a mantis, he still had a deep memory of this monster.

After all, in the current Star Base, the connecting cables of many facilities are mixed with a large amount of Mantis silk threads. Although these silk threads are traded from the ancient tree, how can we not pay attention to a monster that can produce such silk threads that are comparable to alchemical materials?

What's more, now the commander-in-chief and the cat and the blazing sun dragon who specifically emphasized the ancient tree's attitude towards Mantis, from an indirect perspective, the investigation team's evaluation of Mantis will have to change again.

"Dragon-Slaying Spear. Our scholars and craftsmen still haven't figured it out completely. The leader of the second phase has been working hard on the material ratio for a long time, but the progress is still very slow. You dare to promise this? Aren't you afraid that Mantis will feel that he has been deceived and get angry and go crazy in the base?"

The commander-in-chief always felt very tired when he met such a regiment commander.

Although the commander-in-chief is a decision-maker, the real leader in the investigation team is the chief. And sometimes he is really tired to be with such a boss.

"Hey, it's okay. I've already told you about the delayed delivery. The mantis seems to be very intelligent. It understands what I said and has expressed its agreement. All we have to do is deliver the ten metal pillars first."

The Grand Commander patted the Commander-in-Chief's shoulder in a comforting gesture and continued, "Besides, even if the Mantis really goes crazy, we are in the base and we have so many elite hunters. Even if its strength really exceeds our expectations, it shouldn't be a big problem. Besides, don't we have a backup here?"

"Cuck!!"

"I can't do it ah quack!!"

The sudden quacking startled several people present.

Then there was a distortion in the air, and Xia Guagua's yellow and purple figure suddenly appeared at the meeting point.

Before the commander-in-chief and his men could feel surprised and think that Xialong was finally willing to appear before them openly, they saw Xiagua shaking his head frantically and quacking continuously, as if he was refuting something.

Seeing this, the commander-in-chief thought about it carefully and asked uncertainly: "You mean, if this mantis goes crazy, you won't intervene?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Guagua nodded and shook her head.

At this moment, he regretted not training a cat that could translate his words in the Star Base.

Seeing Xialong nodding and shaking his head, the commander-in-chief was a little unsure for a moment.

"I see! You mean you can't interfere?"

This is because the captain, who had been hanging around in ancient trees for many years and had dealt with a large number of fire dragons and had sufficient experience in language barriers, suddenly interrupted.

After seeing Xialong nod slowly, the Grand Commander looked into Xiaguagua's big eyes and seemed to see something in his eyes.

So he asked cautiously, "You can't beat it?"

"Cuck!"

Xialong's body movements froze and his voice got stuck halfway through.

Even though she felt somewhat embarrassed, Xia Guagua, as a grown-up kid who had lived for hundreds of years, had not yet and was unwilling to lie about this. She just felt ashamed and did not explain too much. She disappeared in the wide-eyed eyes of the Grand Captain and the others.

"This"

Several people in the meeting room looked at each other. At this moment, the Grand Commander regretted bringing Mantis into the Star Base without any precautions.

The Xialong did not hesitate to show up and openly stated that it was a monster that it could not defeat. Even if there were many elite hunters in the stronghold and there were certain defensive equipment, how much would it cost to repel or even kill an opponent that even an ancient dragon could not defeat?
"Now that things have come to this, Captain, you should try to communicate with Mantis as much as possible during this period and do your best to calm him down. I will have the forge give priority to casting those metal pillars. As for the defensive measures, I'll leave it to you, Master."

Hearing this, the Grand Commander and the Sword Master nodded solemnly, and the Commander-in-Chief slowly exhaled.

"I hope this new 'monster friend' can really become a 'friend'."
