Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 302: Actions of All Parties (4K)

After a little thought, Shion gave up the commonly used lethal ammunition and mainly carried auxiliary ammunition such as recovery bullets, demon bullets, and hardened bullets.

After placing the ammunition box on the back of the Fanghound Xiaobai and securing it, Shion tightened the straps of the heavy crossbow, looking eager to try it out:

"Let's go!"

"Do you know the direction?"

Brave held the Flying Dragon Sword [Cui] and glanced at Shion from the side.

So Shiyuan froze in her tracks, "No, I don't know..."

Brave sighed and turned to look at Ye Zi, "Where's the date cat? If we want to find it, we still have to rely on it, right?"

Ye Zi shook his head. "Yezao told me before that before Brother Lin Lin parted with it, he specifically asked for the direction of Lingfeng and specifically told it not to go there."

Brave frowned slightly and reacted instantly.

When he and Ye Zi had just followed Lin Lin to the Jieyun territory, Lin Lin had told them his analysis that there was a high probability that an ancient dragon that could control storms lived in Jieyun Spiritual Peak.

If you put yourself in his shoes, if he encountered an invincible enemy in the wild, the best way to create a chance for himself to escape would be to lure the monster to the territory of other powerful monsters, let them fight each other, and then take the opportunity to escape.

"so?"

Shion replied, confused.

Ye Zi pointed to the northwest, "So let's go directly to Lingfeng!"

"What about that hunting cat companion of our senior brother? Are we not taking it with us?"

Ye Zi shook his head, "It will arrive earlier than us."

"Eh?"

Shion tilted her head. How could a single Feline surpass them? Could it have set off early? But what could a single Feline do?
At this time, inside Jieyun Farm.

"Phew—these items should be almost ready, meow!"

Coconut Date looked at the package in front of him that was full of various supplies and took a long breath.

It tied up the bulging package, and then lifted a large piece of barbecue from the grill beside it:

"Daikong, good boy! Come and eat this, meow! Only when you're full will you have the strength to fly, meow!"

The fuel consumption of Dakong is one piece of barbecue per 100 kilometers!

"Ouch!"

Dakong didn't bother to be polite with Coconut Date at all. He opened his mouth and swallowed the barbecue in one gulp. Then he flapped his wings and took off into the air.

"Wait a minute, meow!"

Coconut Date was in a hurry. He ran towards Dakong with the package on his back, and then jumped up with all his strength. He barely touched Dakong's claws at the highest point. Then Dakong grabbed his tail and took off in an uncomfortable position with his head upside down.

"This feeling is worse than being grabbed by a backpack and flying meow—"

As the altitude rose rapidly, Date's screams became quieter and quieter, and finally the curse words from his mouth were blocked back into his stomach by the wind.

Fortunately, under the constant protests of the date, Dakong loosened his claws slightly and readjusted his grip, finally restoring his head and feet...

……

"Why is the sky cloudy?"

The trio were hurrying on their way when they suddenly noticed that dark clouds were gathering in the sky above their heads at a speed visible to the naked eye. Before they could react, raindrops as big as beans began to fall down, soaking them like drowned rats in the blink of an eye.

However, among the three, only Ziyuan and Xiaobai cared about being soaked. Braif and Ye Zi looked solemnly ahead, which was the northwest direction where Lingfeng was located.

They saw clearly just now that the dark cloud was spreading from that side, and its speed was so fast that it didn't look like a natural phenomenon at all.

"Brother Lin Lin's speculation is correct. There really is an ancient dragon on Lingfeng Mountain. The heavy rain caused by the clouds was caused by that creature!"

Brave struggled to pull his greaves out of the rapidly muddy ground. "But this is good news for us."

"This means that the ancient dragon was fighting with something, and that thing is most likely a Tyrannosaurus Rex!"

"I hope Brother Lin has escaped the Deviljanosaurus... Let's speed up and find Brother Lin as soon as possible."

Ye Zi muttered something in a low voice, raised his hand and released a Kinsect, and his body flew several meters in the air. Then he put the insect stick on his back and activated the jet mechanism. He flew forward several meters again, and finally landed lightly on the treetop in the distance, looking back.

The tooth hound Xiaobai followed closely behind. Although he was carrying two large ammunition boxes and a little girl was sitting on his back, his well-trained body still allowed him to move flexibly through the mountains and forests. He is a very agile dog in the mountains!

"Grass!"

Brave looked at Ye Zi, then at Shion sitting on Xiaobai's back. They seemed completely unaffected by the heavy rain. On the other hand, the mud under his feet not only slowed down his progress, but also consumed his physical strength...

So, he couldn't help but think of the puppy he fostered at Lin Lin's farm.

Cang Xiang, when will you become an adult? Daddy needs you!
……

The speed of flying in the sky was very fast. Ye Zi and the other two who set out at the same time had just walked about ten kilometers, but they had already flown sixty or seventy kilometers, almost covering half of the straight-line distance. However, as they got closer to the spiritual peak, an inexplicable feeling of dull depression came over them, and this feeling became stronger and stronger as they moved forward.

In fact, Coconut Date had experienced this feeling before, that was when he participated in the fight against the Peak Dragon in Lockrak. However, the intensity of the feeling at that time was completely different from that now.

Jujube had a vague understanding, perhaps this was the "Ancient Dragon".

"Dakong! Lower your altitude, meow! We're flying too high and too conspicuous, we might get attacked, meow!"

There was an indescribable feeling of oppression in the air. Dakong could feel the fear deep in his blood that came from instinct and genes. Instinct kept urging him to run as far as possible, but the shackles in his heart made him unwilling to turn around and leave.

Hearing Coconut Date's reminder, Dakong lowered his altitude as he was told, flying forward only about one meter above the treetops. As the altitude decreased, the indescribable feeling of oppression seemed to ease a little.

"Boom!" Heavy rain fell, lightning pierced the sky and the earth, terrifying pressure covered all directions, and the anger of the ancient dragon changed the color of the sky and the earth.

Raindrops fell on the crimson scales of the sky, splashing up wisps of white smoke.

At this time, the sacred peak was already in sight, but the slight sense of oppression he had felt before had almost become a huge stone on his chest, making it difficult for Long to breathe.

In the distance, an extremely thin white line connected the sky and the earth, but the line only appeared for a brief moment before disappearing. Only the sunlight remained pouring through a hole in the thick dark clouds, looking sacred and solemn.

This scene was reflected in the blue eyes of the sky. Its body could not stop shaking. The instinct of survival roared in its mind, making it turn around and stay away from that terrifying existence!

But it didn't do that.

Dakong folded his wings and glided from above the treetops to the ground, allowing his fiery red body to be hidden by the trees and preventing the terrifying existence high in the clouds from noticing his figure.

Date took a deep breath with lingering fear. Even though the white line that ran through the sky and the earth was so far away, it could still feel its earth-shattering power. It couldn't imagine that if it and the sky were even slightly touched, would it become a bit of scum between heaven and earth?

"That guy... Dakong, you're too conspicuous. You can't go any further. If you attract its attention, you'll be dead, meow!"

Jujube looked around and found that not far ahead there was a platform formed by three ancient trees entangled together as the main body, and countless vines wrapped around it. There used to be a nest built with dead branches there, but it looked a little dilapidated and seemed to have been abandoned.

According to Coconut Date's speculation, this place was probably too close to the sacred peak. When that terrifying guy arrived, the original residents here migrated to the periphery.

"It's well hidden and safe here, meow. Just wait here and don't fly out of the tree canopy easily, meow! I'm a small target and won't be easily discovered. I'll go get the boss, and then we'll go back, meow!"

Dakong looked up and looked in the direction where the vortex had formed in the sky. After a moment, he let out a low roar and flapped his wings to land in the nest.

Dakong was a little anxious. In fact, he wanted to rush out. He had a mysterious intuition and instinctively felt that Lin Lin's current condition was not good, but the monster in the clouds was indeed too terrifying. Once he flew out and was discovered, what would be waiting for him might very well be the water cannon that pierced through the sky and earth just now.

Coconut Date tightened the package around him, took a deep breath, and then got on all fours and ran nimbly through the forest.

This place was not too far from Lingfeng. Jujube traveled at full speed and successfully arrived at the foot of the mountain in less than an hour.

As soon as it rushed out of the forest, its eyes were attracted by the straight river in front of it...

Wait, no, that wasn't actually a river!

In his mind, Yezao pieced together the location of the stream of water that he had just glimpsed from afar, running through the sky and earth, with the scene before him, and was shocked to find that the river before him was clearly created by the attack of the ancient dragon in the sky just now!

At the end of the river, two dark green figures lay there quietly. Their bodies were motionless and no longer had the terrifying aggression that shook the heavens and the earth as before.

"Is that a Devil May Cry?"

Date was startled again, and then the hair on his body stood up. His pupils dilated as he looked up at the sky, and he trembled instinctively.

Tyrannosaurus, a terrifying monster that is no less dangerous than an ancient dragon, was... killed instantly by the attack we just saw?
Even cut in half...

Is that guy really just an ancient dragon?
Yezao forced himself to calm down and not think about these things. The most important thing right now was to find Lin Lin and Tiao Tiao, and put everything else aside!

Date took a deep breath, looked around, and reviewed in his mind the techniques of detecting traces that Lin Lin had taught him bit by bit.

A large area of land here was overturned, and there were large scratches on the ground, which should have been left by the Tyrannosaurus's big jaw covered with teeth.

The puddles here should be the footprints of the Tyrannosaurus, but they are very disorganized and there are puddles in all directions. However, it is impossible for the Tyrannosaurus to spin in one place, so... it is chasing and attacking something!
Jujube looked around and found several traces of Tiaotiao's footprints. Although they were deformed by the heavy rain, they had lived together for a long time and were quite familiar with Tiaotiao's footprints, so they recognized them at a glance.

Tiao Tiao's footprints were widely spaced, with the forefoot part deep and the heel part shallow, clearly indicating high-speed running in a single direction. This did not match the footprints of a Tyrannosaurus Rex attacking in circles. Therefore, the one who was attacked could only be Lin Lin.

"Boss...you have to be okay, meow!"

After a quick search, Coconut Tree didn't find any armor fragments or anything like that. Instead, it did find quite a few loose teeth from the Deviljho. This made it feel a little more at ease. At least it meant that the boss hadn't died instantly in the Deviljho's mouth...

As for whether he was injured or not, it was impossible to tell. After all, the blood all over the ground had overflowed from the Tyrannosaurus Rex's corpse.

Yezao glanced at the corpse of the Tyrannosaurus Rex and stopped paying attention to it. Instead, he tried to find Lin Lin's location.

Unfortunately, under the high-intensity rainstorm brought by Lanlong, even the footprints of large monsters could not be maintained for long, let alone hunters who would intentionally cover up their tracks. After searching for a long time, Coconut Date found nothing except the direction in which Tiaotiao left.

"Could it be that Tiaotiao carried the boss away again, meow?"

Jujube scratched his head and followed Tiaotiao's footsteps.

……

Heavy rain.

Rickres took off his helmet and wiped the rain off his face, looking gloomy.

"Damn it, what kind of luck is this? That guy is hard to chase to begin with, and now it's raining again!"

After inspecting the broken tree trunk in front of her, Rachel glanced back at him. "I've been the one doing the trace detection all along, so what do you have to complain about?"

"Isn't it just that I have bad luck and am in a bad mood?"

"We were having a good fight. We harassed the big golden guy time and time again, and we had already forced him into a weakened state. Then a Deinonychus showed up midway, and all our efforts for the past month went to waste!"

"Oh my bad luck! Why would a Tyrannosaurus Rex just show up?"

Rickles sighed deeply, and Rachel's face turned unhappy:

"Looks like this is your first time being invaded by a Devil May Cry? Then you're pretty lucky."

Kevin sighed, rubbed his forehead which was swollen from the quarrel, and said:
"Rhys, please stop talking and don't disturb Rachel's investigation. We can't be of much help in this regard, so just avoid causing any trouble."

"If the Deviljhovenosaurus appears, it will inevitably bring about an ecological disaster. We must act quickly and defeat it before it completely destroys the stream's ecology. We can put the matter of the Tyrannosaurus Rex aside for now."

Rickres touched his head and muttered twice, but still said nothing more.

That big golden guy was quite clever. Their harassment tactics became less and less effective as time went on. They had managed to weaken him last time, but there wasn't a guarantee they'd be able to do that again...
