"There is a difference. We can evacuate you directly within a hundred meters. We'll need someone to cover your retreat before we can evacuate you within fifty meters. Any closer, and it's hard to say."
The knight spoke. As a knight of the kingdom, he was more like a soldier than a hunter. He calculated the distance like a precise machine, and his words were like cold water poured on the face of the Grand Secretary.
The Grand Secretary's enthusiasm cooled visibly. He stammered and was speechless for a while, and finally realized the price they had to pay for getting close to the Flame Dragon.
But at this time, Dark Night moved forward, exceeding the distance that he and the knight had carefully calculated, and the knight was a little surprised.
"I just felt like he was waiting for us."
After the words were spoken, all three of them fell silent.
"Whether it's good or bad, this is a step we must take. We live on the same planet as them."
Dark Night continued.
"Let me move forward on my own. The future belongs to the young."
The Grand Secretary shook his hand, put his hands behind his back, sighed deeply, and walked forward.
"I really don't understand you people."
The Knight of the Kingdom sighed and stopped the Grand Maester again, but his slightly wavering steps betrayed him.
But the three of them did not move for a while, but their words brought Ji Jie back to his senses.
So, under the three people's fierce gazes, the Flame Dragon King turned around, faced them, and slowly stood up.
"On the same planet?"
Ji Jie murmured and walked towards the three people.
The hunter reached behind him, and the knight raised his right arm with the shield to cover the scholar's body. This was an instinctive reaction trained by civilized experience.
But the approaching Flame Dragon showed no hostility; they just subconsciously retreated instead of running away.
Thirty meters, twenty meters, ten meters, the arrogant ancient dragon was getting closer and closer, but his eyes were still so calm and without hostility.
one meter--
The heat wave brushed past the bodies of the three people, and the nearly thirty-meter-long body of the Flame Dragon passed by them. They turned around, and human eyes could take in pieces of shells, but could never take in the entire body of the Flame Dragon.
Ji Jie retracted his gaze, passed them by, and flew down the mountain.
"I'm not burning, I'm just a little hot!"
The Grand Secretary exclaimed as if he had discovered something very important.
"Uh, why didn't he just fly up the mountain earlier?"
The knight discovered something more important.
637
Chapter 637: On the external image of the Monster Group.
"Uh, why didn't he just fly up the mountain earlier?"
The knight just scratched his head and casually mentioned it. The hunter and scholar looked at each other in confusion, but they discovered the key point:
"After the Flame King Dragon emerged from the cave and walked onto the volcano, its movements didn't seem like it was patrolling its territory... more like it was taking a stroll?"
"Perhaps, his purpose in climbing the volcano was to interact with us?"
Recalling the burning wind that Flame King Dragon passed by, the Grand Secretary's eyes lit up like light bulbs.
"He was always paying attention to us. When he walked past us, we only felt a slight heat, but no flames. He wasn't as gentle as a Yangyan Dragon. He was just as unique as we imagined."
The Grand Secretary took a step he had not taken before and walked towards the crater where the Flame Dragon had stayed, feeling the magma rolling under the crater.
The same was true for the other two, but their eyesight was not as good as Ji Jie's. The hazy edge of their vision stopped at the sea outside the ancient forest, and could not reach the tower in the distance.
"Do they really care about us?"
The knight squatted at the crater, spoke calmly, picked up a stone and threw it into the magma under the crater, as if throwing his own troubles into it.
He didn't think that being cared about by the ancient dragon was a good thing. For them, the touch of natural disasters was a collision that required them to fight with all their strength.
"Actually... they've never stopped caring about us."
The Grand Secretary easily saw through the knight's thoughts. The first thing that came to his mind was the origin of the East and West Kingdoms of today's humankind, the ancient city of Shulede, which was burned by raging flames.
"We are making progress. If we want to be on an equal footing with them, being cared for is a must."
The wilderness was cleared by the army, the roars of monsters and the cheers of nobles echoed in the Colosseum, the blood of ancient dragons was poured into the mechas made of monster corpses, and they intended to break into the forbidden realm with the most sinful alchemy.
At that time, the young races believed that the bloody dragon skeleton mecha technology was a monument to the past civilization, but they did not know... it was the tombstone of the ancient civilization.
and so--
“What’s more important is to find that relatively soft balance.”
The old dragon man reached out and pressed the knight's shoulder, and with his other hand he pulled An Ye's hand so that An Ye also squatted down, allowing him to pat one person's shoulder with one hand, and his short body was filled with the teachings of **.
Fortunately, everything is fine now.
"Are we still chasing after them?"
Dark Night asked, gazing at the patterns on the volcanic rock.
"Following him all the time might just lower his impression of us. Maybe we'll find something else if we wander around the volcano. We can also look forward to our next chance encounter with him. Let's go!"
The Grand Secretary raised his fists, full of energy. The hunter and the knight looked at each other. The hunter's helplessness was mixed with a relaxed smile, while the knight's helplessness was still serious and rigid.
Ji Jie had no idea that the three men were reading comprehension about his every move. He was hanging upside down at the entrance of the cave as a scale striker, just as the hunters were staking out the hunters when they were staking out him.
The mini dragon opened its cute little mouth and yawned loudly. It didn't become alert until it saw the investigation team walking into the volcanic cave. It followed them at the top of the cave, watching them touch things here and there.
"This is... slime mold?!"
The three of them stopped in front of a green fungal carpet. In the center of the carpet was a deep dragon-slaying grinding mark.
Ji Jie took a look and found that it was the slime mold that he had deliberately rubbed off when he was transforming.
The slime mold and the Broken Dragon have a symbiotic relationship, and will spread along with the Broken Dragon's wide range of activities. He thought of this at the time, and deliberately rubbed the slime mold on his body everywhere, which can be regarded as being responsible for this symbiotic relationship!
In addition to this slime mold trace, there are some new and old monster traces that tell the change of ownership of this volcano, but no large monster has ever really appeared.
Empty volcanoes are boring.
Ji Jie felt that as the leader of the "Monster Group", he should be responsible for the group's external image. As their family's temporary base, how could it be empty with no monsters!
He immediately had a plan.
……
The ground shook slightly, a sign that a large monster was approaching. It jolted the three of them out of their relaxed outing, and as they realized this was a volcano fraught with danger, they all hid.
"Given the frequency of earthquakes, it must be a big one."
An Ye squatted down with his ears close to the ground. Even the movements of the Tyrannosaurus Rex might not make such a noise.
As they were vaguely expecting it, an active volcano jumped down from the upper cave. The moment it landed, there was a loud bang, and the three of them all staggered and could hardly stand.
Their sight also moved away from the stone pillar, and they saw the earth cracking and magma gushing out. Following the cracks, they were able to see the culprit that caused the earthquake.
It was an extremely huge dragon-slaying sword, the "Amber Destroyer Blade" dragon-slaying sword.
"Oh shit! I'll never jump like that again!"
Ji Jie was also exclaiming in surprise. He had really underestimated the weight of his dragon-slaying form. This jump caused his feet to hit the dry ground, causing him a burst of pain.
But his exclamation was seen by people as a loud and fierce roar.
However, Ji Jie did not realize this. After pulling out his feet, he looked around and sniffed the air, and then naturally looked at where the hunters were.
"not good!"
When seeing Zhan Long looking around and sniffing the air, An Ye felt something was wrong. The friendliness of the Flame Dragon and the empty volcano paralyzed them. They did not use deodorizing balls on themselves. The moment they brushed past the Flame Dragon, their cold sweat evaporated and they had a strong smell on their bodies.
It was too late to react now. The place where the Cinder Blade fell was not far from them, and it was already looking over at them.
"run!"
Without saying a word, Dark Night picked up the Grand Secretary and held him in his arms before running away. The knights followed closely behind him, and at the same time, they began to spray deodorizing balls on themselves.
"No? Why did you just run away? Are you not afraid of the Flame King Dragon but the Dragon Slayer?"
Ji Jie was stunned for a moment. He was still thinking about how to make a dragon-slaying creature appear kind. Seeing this, he stopped pretending and chased after the group excitedly.
As for why they ran?
They dared to show up in front of the Flame Dragon because Ji Jie's credibility in the Flame Dragon form was already high, and more importantly, because they were tracking the Flame Dragon, and the initiative was in their hands.
This Cinder Blade Dragon was covered in blood as if it was breathing magma, and it looked like an active volcano ready to erupt. Its appearance was like a "bang" falling from the sky, catching them off guard.
Why not run! Even if they guessed that the other party was a member of the monster group, they did not think that the small brain of Zhanlong, a beast dragon, could be as intelligent as the Flame King Dragon.
Every step the giant dragon slayer took was accompanied by ground shaking. Fortunately, the two monster hunters had adapted to the earthquake after their initial stumble and were still able to walk briskly.
At the same time, they shook the small bags containing smoke balls, causing the smoke to spread rapidly over a large area, blurring the sight of the dragon slayer behind them.
638
Chapter 638: Even the weird ones have to have weird settings.
Ji Jie felt that just chasing them was not enough, he had to put some pressure on them.
"Hahaha, take my jumping attack!"
He smiled kindly, kicked his legs and turned in the air, and the long sword tail chopped down heavily in front of him.
"boom!"
The lava floor shattered under this blow, and the impact of the swing carried the debris flying to both sides, stirring up a large amount of volcanic smoke and dust.
According to the law of smoke without injury, the knife unexpectedly missed. The two hunters reacted when they heard the dragon-slaying roar and flew forward to avoid the flying debris.
Holding the Grand Secretary, he turned over and staggered to his feet despite the earthquake. Dark Night and his knight deputy continued to rush forward.
The smoke was enveloped by gray volcanic dust, completely obscuring the figures of the two people.
Ji Jie pulled back the tail of his sword, roared a few times, and naturally stopped chasing. After thinking for a moment, he jumped into the lava lake, leaving the illusion of crossing the lava and leaving.
The Cinder Blade Dragon Slayer has appeared, and then it is the male Mantis, who is called the king by the hunters!
When he walked out of the lava lake and onto the lava on the lakeshore, his body had changed into a golden mantis.
The mantis was agile and easily jumped over the lava river and giant stone pillars that were difficult for humans to cross, and took a "shortcut" to come in front of the hunters.
The mountain caves are interconnected. At this time, the hunters have already left the volcanic cavity. Ji Jie also happened to find a cave without magma and with dim light. He spewed out silk threads and quickly set up the Pansi formation.
After completing the arrangement of the Pansi formation, he crossed his arms, tightened the silk thread, and waited quietly in the corner, like a spider waiting for its prey to fall into its web.
As expected, the hunters fell into his trap.
The thinnest silk threads clung to the human body. The hunters and knights walking in front were all wearing thick clothes and did not notice the silk threads clinging to their bodies at all.
Only the Grand Secretary, who was walking behind, noticed something, but it was too late. The weaver should have noticed that his prey had been caught.
The net fell and the silk thread tightened, and the three people were immediately tied up in the net. But they were hunters after all, and the force of their struggle caused a piece of silk thread to swing violently.
But this is not important. The golden shadow swooped down and the university scholar couldn't help but widen his eyes.
A cold light flashed——
The silk cocoon that wrapped the dragon man was peeled off, and the unsuspecting university scholar fell directly to the ground while still struggling.
"This, this, this is——"
He widened his eyes, looking at the mantis in front of him who was looking at him in disbelief. His legs couldn't help but tremble, and he was still stuck on the previous cold light.
Compared to other large monsters that eat people casually, the crustacean shield crab sickle crab, the pincer horn shadow spider skeleton spider, the beetle heavy beetle, these arthropod monsters all have the habit of preying on humans!
Ji Jie did not realize this, but he saw the horror in the eyes of the Grand Secretary and wiped his arm in confusion.
How could they even be afraid of the Mantis King? He had heard them praise the wisdom of the Mantis King himself.
He had planned out all the weird things beforehand. The "Ashes Destroyer" Zhanlong was a reckless war maniac, and the Mantis King was supposed to be a wise man among the monsters.
A peculiar vibration of silk threads was transmitted to his limbs, indicating that the two monster hunters had broken free.
An Ye was holding a light insect in his hand, intending to use it when the other party wanted to eat him, but he did not expect that the other party would go after the Grand Secretary first.
Now he broke open the cocoon in a panic, but saw that the Grand Secretary was safe and sound. He calmed down for a moment and did not directly crush the light insect in his hand to death.
