These corpses were as if they had been drained dry, leaving only shriveled skin.
Everywhere you look, apart from the monsters you used to hunt, any large creature has been turned into a skin.
"Who...who did this!"
The observer's voice trembled with anger as he asked.
Li Xia did not answer, but she already knew the answer in her heart.
apostle.
Flesh and blood apostles.

Chapter 68 Insect Glaive, Let's Go!
"No, I have to report this to the guild!"
Without hesitation, the investigator pulled out a bright red sphere and inserted it into the launcher in his arm.
A column of bright red smoke pierced through the layers of tree trunks, coalescing into a huge, eye-catching orb in the sky above the ancient forest.
Signal flares are used to call for help.
After doing all that, the investigators began working around the traces.
Li Xia suddenly asked in a low voice:
"Awoo, didn't the guide mention that you can't hunt monsters at will?"
"Yes, Your Highness."
Li Xia nodded. In fact, he had vaguely discovered this back in the previous world.
Every world has its own 'compatibility' and its own hidden rules.
If we follow the principles of 'compatibility', the world will be much simpler.
Of course, one can choose to act recklessly and do as one pleases, but the consequences will certainly not be good.
For example, in Monster Hunter World, an ancient kingdom was known for its indiscriminate hunting of dragons.
This ultimately attracted one of the five taboos, the Black Dragon of Calamity.
The black dragon destroyed the entire ancient kingdom and has reproduced again after thousands of years.
That's how the human world we know today gradually came to be.
Nowadays, both the Hunter Guild and ordinary people adhere to the concept of ecological niche.
They see themselves as part of an ecological niche, and their hunting is a natural part of it.
Unlike real humans, who exist independently of the food chain and can easily lead to the extinction of species.
They will hunt, but they will never kill indiscriminately.
Hunting each type of monster once, like I have done, is considered normal hunting.
But they kill indiscriminately for materials or other reasons...
It's true that if someone is incredibly powerful, the guild can't do anything about it. For example, Li Xia now feels that the guild absolutely cannot kill him.
But there are always worlds that cannot be swept away.
Every instance of a dungeon world is not as simple as it appears on the surface.
The purpose of the temple has always been to let these apostles explore and learn how to explore the world through the world they are familiar with.
The hall is proud, and it is also silent.
Many apostles could sense this, but a large pool contains all sorts of people.
Several pterosaur cries echoed from the horizon, and a few extremely robust figures descended from the sky.
"bang bang bang"
Amidst the scattered dirt, the hunter, dressed in the stronghold defense team's uniform, stood up.
They were about to speak when they saw the same scene.
There was no need to ask anymore. The burly men exchanged a grim glance, leaving only one of them to exchange clues with the observer.
The others then followed the trail.
Hmm... the apostles or their teams who did this must be in pretty bad shape.
Li Xia watched their departing figures. The defense team's outfits were purple, and these people were extremely powerful.
Normally, reinforcements that are called in wouldn't arrive that quickly or be that strong.
It must have triggered a plot-driven chase.
However, it has nothing to do with me.
Li Xia looked up and saw the sun gradually setting in the west.
"Awoo, you go with Abbot and come over later."
Awoo nodded in agreement.
Under Ai Bo's gaze, Li Xia half-squatted down and suddenly shot into the sky.
It flew away! It really was a humanoid ancient dragon!
How could a normal person possibly fly!
Abbott opened her notebook and decided to write it down!
This is a major discovery!
..................
Li Xia's body swept over the forest, the wind he created rustling the treetops.
Where he passed, it was as if green waves were rising, making a rustling sound.
His gaze swept around the surroundings and settled on the tallest tree in the distance.
It is extremely tall and very thick, like a giant umbrella that has been opened.
Compared to it, the trees below, which are often tens of meters tall, seem like saplings that haven't even grown yet.
The true qi circulates rapidly, and in a low-gravity environment, the same true qi brings a stronger acceleration effect.
In just a short while, the tree was right in front of us.
My feet landed lightly inside the dragon's nest. The nest was incredibly large, and there was even a babbling brook running alongside it.
There were claw marks nearby, so it looks like the male Rathalos was drinking water here.
I don't know why there's a stream running through this giant tree that's over a hundred meters tall...
Soon only a small portion of the sun remained visible.
Suddenly, a black dot appeared in the distance, reflected in the remaining half of the setting sun.
Gradually, the black dot grew larger, and a fire dragon with outstretched wings appeared before our eyes.
It flew back to its nest with a mournful sound of wind.
Li Xia looked up at the fire dragon that was flapping its wings, hovering in mid-air, and looking down at him.
Those vertical yellow pupils held a human-like coldness and murderous intent.
In the outstretched right hand, a long, jet-black spear slowly emerged.
"Boom——"
The fire dragon landed heavily in the nest, causing the entire nest to shake.
Sparks were shooting out of its nostrils, and its head was held high.
A deafening roar erupted.
"hold head high------"
The sharp cry seemed to possess a captivating power.
Li Xia felt his internal energy suddenly boil and surge.
[You have been affected by 'Roar' and will be unable to move for 1.5 seconds.]
[The unified primordial energy has taken effect, reducing abnormal status effects by 55%. You will be in a state of abnormal status for 0.7 seconds.]
The time was extremely short, only 0.7 seconds. Li Xia was only in a daze for a moment before she immediately came to her senses.
A gust of wind swept in, and my body instinctively veered to the side.
"Whoosh!"
The gigantic maw, billowing smoke and sparks, slammed shut, shattering the afterimage that remained in place.
The seemingly inevitable attack missed, and Rathalos's movements visibly paused for a moment.
A glint flashed in Li Xia's eyes, and the spear in his hand whistled as it thrust towards the neck in front of him.
"Pfft"
Rathalos's health bar suddenly dropped a little.
The spear sank deep into the Rathalos's neck, and in pain, the Rathalos thrashed its neck wildly.
At the same time, the tail, which was like an iron hammer and covered in bone spikes, came crashing down with a shrill whistle.
Li Xia drew his spear and leaped into the air, gracefully flipping backward before landing on the nest.
His eyebrows furrowed, and he saw that the health bar on the Fiery Dragon's head was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Rapid regeneration?
A flash of blue light appeared in his right eye.

[Comment: Now you know why hunters' weapons are so ridiculously large, right? Because they need to break parts of monsters to defeat them.]
Li Xia looked at the spear in his hand, then at the enormous monster that was 20 meters long and had a wingspan of nearly 30 meters.
