Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 26 The King of the Sky

The female Charmander's vigilance lasted for several minutes.

Fortunately, although the intelligence of the flying dragon species is far superior to that of ordinary beasts, it is not as clear as human beings or Ailu, who have clear logical thinking and intelligence.

After a period of time, seeing that there was no more movement, it lay down again and continued to rest, while Gordon and Pig Chop had no choice but to lie down together with a bitter face.

It seems that they have to wait for the female fire dragon to wake up and leave the lair before considering evacuating.

In this way, the time passed minute by minute in the sleep of the female fire dragon.

Until night fell, the female fire dragon did not intend to wake up, so Gordon and Pig Chop had to take turns to be on guard, closing their eyes and resting their minds, and did not dare to really sleep, lest they would accidentally make noise.

All night passed.

The stars in the sky fell, and the sky was slightly gray.

Gordon yawned silently with the pig chop, but kept cursing the female dragon's snooze in his heart.

And at this moment, the female fire dragon finally woke up!

I saw it shaking its head, as if trying to dispel drowsiness, and then slowly stood up.

The overnight baking made the dragon eggs warm. It used the tip of its wings to stir the thick ash in the nest, and covered the dragon eggs with charcoal ash with residual heat, so as to maintain the temperature of the dragon eggs.

After doing all this, it spread its wings, and its strong muscles drove the membrane to stir the air, providing it with enough lift, and its huge body weighing more than ten tons slowly rose into the air.

Through the opening at the top of the cave, eventually disappearing into the dawn light.

Gordon and Pig Chop didn't act immediately, but lay down on the spot for a few more minutes, and after confirming that the female fire dragon had flown away, they got up from the ground where they had been lying all night.

After twisting his waist hard, there was a dense crackling sound from the stiff back and spine, and the numbness accumulated overnight seemed to dissipate, and Gordon couldn't help moaning happily.

It's time to leave!

However, under the reflection of the golden light of the rising sun pouring in through the hole on the top of the cave, in the nest piled with ashes, the three fire dragon eggs exude an almost magical attraction like the legendary treasure.

Gordon and Pork Chop looked at each other.

The female fire dragon has just left the nest to look for food, no matter how fast it will take half an hour, right?

If you don't steal eggs at this time, when will you wait?

One person and one cat smiled strangely and came to the dragon eggs. Gordon made a comparison and chose the smallest one among them.

Anyway, big and small are all paid the same, why make trouble for yourself? Big, strong babies should be left to their mothers to take good care of them.

He took out a light yellow potion from his bag and poured it down.

This is a special drug called "Forcing Drug". During the duration of the drug effect, the endurance of the user will become stronger. In short, it will not be so easy to get tired.

After all, carrying a big round egg over mountains and ridges for several kilometers was a strenuous job, and he was hungry all night, so it would be impossible if he ran out of strength halfway.

Due to the roasting of the female dragon's nose, the temperature of the dragon eggs is relatively high, even to the point of burning your hands.

But this is not a problem, he is wearing a full set of armor, the temperature is not enough to burn him.

"Hey!"

Holding the fire dragon egg in his hands, Gordon weighed it and felt that the weight was okay, at least not as heavy as his Explosive Knife.

It's just that the round ones are not easy to focus on, and the thick egg liquid in the eggshell dangles, causing the center of gravity to be unstable, and walking is also a bit of a hindrance.

"Let's go! Pork chop!"

Gordon didn't want to stay in this dragon's nest for a second longer. If he walked a second earlier, he could run a little longer before the female fire dragon came back. Now is not the time to dawdle!

Pig Chop led the way, followed by Gordon Trot. The two passed through the cracks in the stone, ran out of the Dragon's Nest, and plunged into the lush forest.

From the moment he entered the forest, Gordon breathed a sigh of relief.

Even if the female fire dragon has excellent eyesight, it is not easy to see them clearly through the layers of tree canopy at high altitude. As long as you pay attention and choose routes with lush vegetation, there should be no surprises.

Maybe it was the effect of forced drugs, or maybe it was because he was in a great mood about completing this high-paying task without any risk, Gordon only felt that his legs were getting windy, and he was running faster and faster.

The few kilometers of mountain roads in the forest were left behind in a blink of an eye. As long as they passed the last pebble beach ahead, they could reach the camp at the bottom of the valley!

The river beach is flat, which is much easier to walk than the potholes covered with tree roots and vines. Unfortunately, there is no tree canopy to cover it, which makes people feel less safe.

Gordon sighed inwardly.

But it's okay, the female fire dragon should not have returned to the dragon's nest, and found that the dragon egg is missing, right?

Steady!

Just as the young hunter couldn't help showing an excited smile on his face, imagining what to eat for the celebration dinner after returning home, the screams of pork chops and the howling of the strong wind exploded in his ears at the same time.

"Be careful meow!!"

Under the interaction of the crisis awareness and muscular reaction cultivated in the hunting ground all year round, Gordon threw the precious but obstructive fire dragon egg aside without thinking about it.

At the same time, the body continued to push away the reaction force of the dragon egg, and flew towards the other side with all its strength.

"Click!"

The huge dragon egg was smashed on the pebble river beach, and the thick golden yellow egg liquid was splashed everywhere.

However, Gordon didn't have the energy to care about these at the moment.

A huge dark red figure swooped past the position where he was just now with the fierce momentum of tearing everything apart.

The huge sharp claws, which were bigger than his whole body, grabbed the pebble river beach fiercely, digging out a conspicuous deep ditch on the river beach.

Gordon, who got up in a hurry, couldn't help swallowing.

If his reaction was half a second late just now, he would have been caught in a puddle by those sharp claws.

The attack failed to hit the target, and the dark red figure pulled up with a sensitive posture that did not match its size, turned half a circle in the air, and looked down at him while floating.

"Roar woo woo woo woo!"

The terrifying roar that had never been experienced before turned into deafening waves and swept across the entire river beach. Gordon and Pig Chop involuntarily covered their ears, unable to move.

This is the roar of the flying dragon!

"Liores (male Charmander)! XX, there is not only one female Charmander?!" Gordon looked up at the huge flying dragon flying in the air like a falcon, and couldn't help but swear.

He finally knew why the pork chop, who had a very sensitive sense of hearing and smell, hadn't issued an early warning.

As worthy of its reputation as the "King of the Sky", the Xiong Charmander just approached him at a high speed in a swooping posture similar to a raptor's predation, and the pork chop had no time to react!

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the torn apart fire dragon egg on the river beach.

The failure of the mission is doomed, but now he has no room to feel annoyed and regretful about it.

Look at the male Charmander who is obviously in a state of rage, it seems to realize that the puddle on the ground is its unborn child, don't call the child's mother later.

Hehehe, can I return to the village alive this time?
