Brave the world of monster hunting with a pokeball

Chapter 109 Freshmen
Devon paused for a long time, seeing that no one asked any more questions, he continued to talk about the battle layout.

"On that day, Comet Dragon mounted two giant airships, and the flying speed will be reduced to the same level as the giant airships with jets turned on. At this time, the airship array will be assembled to launch a concentrated attack on the gun wings. The main firepower comes from long-range hunters. Frozen bomb."

"Weak ice attribute on the spear wing of the Sky Comet Dragon?"

Zuda asked.

"Yes, the ice attribute has a strong destructive power on the gun wing."

Hearing Dewen's answer, Li Fan was a little surprised.

Li Fan was there when Xi Ke was testing the scorching carapace for the Longli Academy, and obviously all the attribute bullets had mediocre effects.

Is it because only the ice attribute will form a hard residue on the surface of the carapace?
Li Fan thought that the icing of the aircraft's wings would affect the aerodynamic shape of the aircraft, resulting in changes in air flow, insufficient lift, inability to climb, and even a crash.

No, although Huihui's flying posture is very fixed, it doesn't mean that it can't be adjusted freely. At the same time, the surface of the carapace is very hot, and with the addition of dragon flame jets, even if a large amount of ice attributes condense on the surface, it won't last long.

Besides, Dewen's description is very straightforward, that is, it is very destructive.

With doubts, Li Fan opened the document with the silver-winged evil star written on it.

The data absorbed by the carapace attribute of Tianhuilong is very detailed, but according to Li Fan's understanding, many key data are false
"What is the effective shooting range?"

Zuda asked.

"200 meters."

Devon replied.

200 meters?Isn't the test a 100-meter distance, and the level 3 penetrating bullet can't penetrate it?
The more Li Fan listened, the more confused he became.

"200 meters. From this point of view, it is necessary to deploy a large number of long-range hunter teams. Do you need a lot of high-level hunters?"

Zuda asked.

"Yes, my requirement is at least 120 five-star hunters who use heavy crossbows as their main weapons."

After Devin finished speaking, the audience fell into silence again.

"The Hunter Guild can help select 60 people at most, and the rest can't do anything."

Zuda informed.

"We have anticipated this, and we are ready to start recruiting for all villages and towns."

Devon responded.

"Before the attack, are you sure you can recruit 60 five-star hunters who use heavy crossbows as their main weapons?"

Zuda expressed concern.

"As long as you know enough about the group of hunters, you won't have such questions."

Devon said with firm eyes.

"Okay, please continue to introduce the deployment."

Zuda didn't go any further.

"If the gun's wings are damaged, Tianhuilong's high-altitude flying ability will be severely restricted, and it is very likely that it will be forced to land. The battlefield will turn from the air to the ground. The battle plan will enter the second stage, but this ground is on its habitat, Tongtian Tower. In terms of altitude, most hunters are still out of reach, and there is only one modified small airship that can go to the Dragon Calendar Institute, in order not to interrupt the tracking of Tianhuilong, a small number of top hunters will be sent to the top of Tongtian Tower to fight."

Devon talked about the second phase of the plan.

"There are top hunters, such as Gu Xing and Pazhizhi who participated in this joint hunt, but according to the investigation data, the circular area at the top of Tongtian Tower is not covered by any, and it is completely unsuitable for hunters to launch ground combat."

Zuda questioned.

"To explain this point in detail, it is related to the ecology of Tianhuilong. Xi Ke, the deputy head of the research institute, can explain it."

After Devon finished speaking, Si Ke guessed and stood up on the chair.

"This is the chest model meow made by our research team through the ecological observation of Tianhuilong."

With Todd's help, a metal cube with an air intake grill was moved to the table.

Sick straightened the bachelor's hat on his head, picked up a wooden pointer and began to explain.

"On the outside of Tianhuilong's chest, there is a physiological structure similar to an air intake grille, which is extremely unusual among monsters. Through continuous observation by the research team, it has been confirmed that this structure is used to suck the surrounding air into the chest cavity and compress it, injecting dragon-attributed energy. Afterwards, a gaseous energy called Dragon Qi is formed."

After Xi Ke finished speaking, he pressed down the lever behind the metal cube.

Hu~hu~
The V-shaped air intake grille on the metal cube opened and began to inhale air rhythmically.

"This model is relatively crude, and it can't simulate the generation process of dragon energy yet."

Sik said with some regret.

"What about the core organ that generates dragon energy inside?"

Zu Da is the person in charge of the Gulong Observatory, and is also very interested in Gulong's latest ecological discoveries.

"Judging from the streamlined body shape of Tianhuilong, the organ that generates dragon energy should not be considered a big cat. It is very likely that it is an energy core similar to Gulong Baoyu, plus the red light strobe that appears when the air intake grille inhales. , the research team named it the Red Dragon Qi Jade."

As Sike said, he simply climbed onto the table and continued to explain.

"Tianhuilong will periodically absorb a large amount of air, compress and store it in the chest cavity, and use it to generate dragon energy. After fighting the airship array, the Tianhuilong with damaged gun wings felt life-threatening, and landed the first piece The thing must be to store the two substances that can synthesize dragon energy to the limit."

when!when!
The surface of the silver metal square suddenly began to bulge outward irregularly.

"When the air is compressed and accumulated to a certain extent, put something in it meow."

Sike took out a small cloth bag and waved a small amount of orange powder towards the metal cube.

"Ignite meow. Boom again! It will cause a huge explosion!"

Sike said very excitedly, but unfortunately, the metal cube model beside him did not explode, but shriveled with a burst of deflation.

Li Fan also didn't expect that the Longli Institute could just rely on ecological observations, and the investigation deduced the possibility of Tianhuilong's bombing.

"Understood, the battle has shifted from the air to the ground, and the Sky Comet Dragon will inevitably go to the top of the Tongtian Tower, its habitat. If the hunting battle is interrupted due to height issues, then the Sky Comet Dragon, which has a sense of crisis, will have enough time to fully store its dragon energy. , the small battle area on the top of the tower, it is meaningless to send more hunters, not to mention the limited carrying capacity that can reach that height, and it is an excellent opportunity to attack when you absorb compressed air. What material are you going to use? An explosion in the dragon's chest cavity?"

Zu Da quickly understood the purpose of Longli Academy's deployment.

"It's best to use the dust meow of the Yanwanglong, and mix it with a sticky substance with strong adhesion. Unfortunately, there is no reserve in the Longli Academy."

Sik said helplessly.

"The dust guild of the Yanwanglong can provide it. I will notify the headquarters to expedite the deployment. However, the quantity is very limited, and the Observatory itself is reluctant to invest in research. I hope that the research team will take it seriously when the coordination test is carried out."

Zuda informed.

"Thank you very much, Director Zu Da, the research team will definitely take it seriously, meow!"

Thicke bowed in thanks.

Li Fan felt that with the in-depth research on combat deployment, the atmosphere gradually eased.

"Dewen, if the deployed battle plan is implemented smoothly, what should we do next?"

Zuda asked.

"Blow up the Tongtian Tower, the habitat, so that the Sky Comet Dragon's gun wings are damaged, and there is not enough dragon energy in its body to maintain long-distance flight. It can only choose to land in the Remains Ridge. I want to hand over the joint deployment of ground combat to the guild. , after all, in terms of accumulated experience, you guys are richer than Longli Academy."

Devin got up and told.

"It's really not your style to hand over the battle to end Tianhuilong to the guild. Well, on behalf of the guild, I approve of this battle plan."

After Zuda finished speaking, a researcher began to distribute paper contracts.

The participating representatives of each village took out their own seals of different shapes and authenticated them on the contract.

After reaching an agreement on the general direction, everyone began to discuss issues such as material allocation and personnel deployment.

During this period, everyone was open and honest, without any reservations.

Li Fan found that there seems to be a tacit understanding in Monster Hunter World, that is, when a disaster strikes, even if everyone is in a different situation, they will do everything possible to contribute all their strength to deal with the crisis together.

But the more this is the case, the more strange Longli Institute's behavior of giving false test data is.

"How do you plan to recruit the top hunter members participating in the battle on the top of the tower?"

Ask a question alone.

Vegasha replied: "The initial decision is to be recommended by the village or the guild."

"Are there no members of the Dragon Calendar Academy involved? After all, you developed the explosive device."

"I'll be there, Meow, as technical support for the explosive device."

Thick held up his paw.

"I have no malice towards the research group, but I think that at the top of the Tongtian Tower, there should be at least one agile Longli Academy hunter who is responsible for making the explosive device effective."

Lonely informed said.

"Gu Xing is right. If he and Pazizhi are the only ones at the top of Tongtian Tower to participate in the battle, the pressure will be too great."

Zuda also agrees with this statement.

"Dragon Calendar Institute is an academic institution. The former chief hunter has disappeared after retiring. Where can I find you a hunter with top strength?"

Vegas said angrily.

"Isn't it okay to expand the scope of recruitment? Set the standard as a senior hunter of Longli Academy."

Zuda gives advice.

"All right."

Vegasha sighed helplessly.

The high-level hunters are basically dying, but it is really unreasonable for the two seven-star hunters to take care of the battle and use the detonation device correctly at the right time.

After all the details were gradually finalized, the joint combat deployment meeting came to an end, and intense preparations began immediately.

The number of people passing through the headquarters of Longli Academy quickly increased a lot.

Seeing that it was overcrowded, the team simply continued to live on the Yanhuo.

In the middle of the night, Yudora put his hands on the bulwark, looked at the brightly lit headquarters below, and sighed, "Li Fan, I kind of want to participate in the battle on the top of the tower."

"There's no need to take risks, maybe a top hunter will be recruited soon."

Li Fan persuaded and explained.

"Aren't you also preparing? Changed your mind so soon?"

"My previous preparations were mainly because I thought that Huihui could be captured, and at the same time I felt that the team could help. Now it seems that even if they don't participate, they can complete the hunt for Huihui. If you really want to participate, the ground of Yiqunling Combat is also good."

Li Fan said slightly disappointed.

"Okay, so what are you going to do next?"

"Lei Ge is almost recuperating. It's time to find a place where there is no one to mutate, but this time the process is more complicated."

"Have you obtained the ancient keel?"

Eudora asked in surprise.

"Yes, to set up a trap to lure Huihui to take the bait, a huge amount of Hexing Stone is needed. I think the market is better, so I exchanged a piece of ore vein for guild points, and then used the points to exchange for 184 pieces of third-level ancient dragon bone fragments. It's the cheapest way."

It was only after in-depth understanding that Li Fan realized that ancient keel bones can also be divided into complete and fragmented.

The complete ones can be used for processing equipment, and the application of fragments generally tends to be researched.

In addition, according to the weathering of the surface, it is divided into five grades.

The identification standard was a bit beyond Li Fan's expectations.

The ancient keel is not that the older it is, the more valuable it is, but the newer it is, the more valuable it is.

If the appraisal grade is too poor, it will be dropped immediately and be classified as an ancient keel.

"Then let's set off as soon as possible. I heard that the airport at the headquarters will be more crowded in two days. Let's leave the Yanhuo to make room for it, which can be regarded as a kind of contribution."

After Yudora finished speaking, she recalled a detail in the meeting, and asked worriedly: "Sixty five-star hunters who use heavy crossbows as their main combat weapon, can they really be recruited in such a short period of time? After all, Kara Village is also the branch president. Harlan has a five-star rating, and his main weapon is a spear."

Li Fan looked up at the star-studded night sky, and responded, "If it's here, it's definitely possible."

In the early morning three days later, a small airship of Longliyuan hovered over Lantai Village.

After the call-up contract fell like snowflakes, the airship started to fly again, rushing to the next small village nearby.

The two male villagers picked up the contract on the ground, and after watching it for a while, they couldn't help looking at each other and laughing.

"Our Lantai Village doesn't even have a guild resident, so where can we find five-star hunters?"

"If you want me to say that this airship can find Lantai Village, it is powerful enough."

Amidst the discussion among the crowd, a middle-aged man with a fish basket on his back appeared on the dirt road in the village.

Picking up a contract and looking at it for a while, the man's face changed slightly, he took off the fish basket on his back, and carried it back home.

After the wife saw the man coming home, she kept holding the contract in a daze and sighed silently.

After thinking for a long time, the man got up and went into the house, dragging a big red box out from under the bed.

After breaking the lock with bare hands, the lid of the box was opened, and a heavy ballista disassembled into parts appeared.

On the split buttstock, the five-star hunter badge embedded in it shines brightly.

The man picked up the components and began to assemble them skillfully, as if he had done this action thousands of times and remembered it in his mind.

Outside the door, the sun shines in, and the figure of his wife is reflected on the box.

"you want to go?"

"Ah."

"why?"

"Because I was once protected by others."

At the same time, in a forest that has not been identified by the search, Li Fan is holding a hunter's knife, pointing at Lei Ge's back, cutting off the purple carrion bit by bit.

"Brother Lei! I'm wearing earplugs! If you hurt, just yell! It's okay!"

Li Fan shouted.

Lei Ge, who was lying on his side, swung his tail and slapped the ground, as if expressing that this was a small scene, so let's do it.

The monster's ability to endure pain is much stronger than that of humans, so Li Fan didn't hesitate to step up his efforts.

The reason why there is a large piece of purple carrion on Lei Ge's back is not that the maintenance of serious injuries was not done well before, but that the body tissue under the battery case has been soaked by the venom of the little idiot.

What Li Fan wants to achieve is to intervene in the non-necrotic battery case and make it artificially necrotic.

In this way, the thunder attribute energy that would emerge from time to time would be completely cut off.

Originally, he also customized measures to prevent the spread of venom, but after Lei Ge understood the reason, he said that it was too time-consuming, and he could just soak it directly.

Half an hour later, with the last piece of purple carrion removed, Li Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead and washed the hunter's knife.

"Brother Lei, you are the best I have ever seen? It seems that you can't pour healing medicine on the wound after passing out. I have experienced that feeling. Forget it, let's start the next link."

Li Fan muttered, and brought a bucket of foaming synovial fluid.

"Eudoradilu, start brushing, remember to stay away from the wound."

After Li Fan finished speaking, he took the bench and came to Leilanglong's paws, separated the two toes that were close together, and poked a small brush into it.

chap!chap!
A burst of intensive friction sounded.

The team scrubbed for more than an hour before the characteristic [insect pheromone attachment] finally disappeared.

Li Fan called the Yanhuo to lower the altitude, and the first activation training began.

Because of eating the ancient keel fragments and his own good condition, Lei Ge can stimulate significantly more dragon attribute energy, and it is also purer.

The attracted swarms of dragon-eating insects, because the warning pheromones have been washed away, did not know that this was a black factory, so they swarmed up.

Ow!Ow! Ow!
boom!A strong air wave exploded from Lei Ge's body, and the super flash state was achieved again.

At this time, the swarms that became super flash dragon worms were not stimulated and activated, and most of them began to retreat.

The electric shock is gone, but this one-way activation has no benefit at all.

So the black factory logo of the dragon worm, [insect pheromone attachment] reappeared.

Li Fan looked at the handheld and felt a headache for a while, but finally through observation, he grasped some essentials, so he started to guide.

"Lei Ge, what can activate the Corroding Dragon Worm is the kind of extremely thin energy flow, and the energy flow you released is too thick."

Lei Ge blinked, and swung his front paws horizontally, the red and black electric light aroused at the tip of the claws crackled and exploded in the air.

"Still rough."

Lei Ge thought for a moment, and drew the dragon attribute energy to the charged hair on his back.

Clap!Clap!
With the swing of the back, the hair-like fine energy flow is excited at the end of the charged hair.

"It seems to be a little too thin. Okay, at most it's like this."

Another 40-minute scrub.

In the second activation test, with the help of the meticulous energy flow emitted by the charged hairs, about one-third of the dragon worms in the swarm were activated to become super flash dragon worms.

It was the first time that Lei Ge was surrounded by swarms of eroding dragons, and Lei Ge was also very happy.

The characteristic [insect pheromone attachment] appeared again, but this time it had both affinity and warning.

"That's good. There are all small black fans and true fans. This kind of information residue is the most difficult to distinguish."

Li Fan feels that Lei Ge's biggest advantage is that there is no prison wolf dragon to compete with him for the ownership of the dragon worm.

In this way, as long as there is a small amount of positive pheromone attached, it is easy to attract dragon worms.

However, the biggest problem at present is that the entire super flash process, and even the ecology of the dragon worm, are all artificially created.

Li Fan felt that this was not possible, so he customized two improvement plans.

One is to let Lei Ge conduct field training, without the support of the Flame, let him lead limited dragon-eating insect activities, so as to gradually adapt to the control and use of dragon-eating insects.

The second is research on the improvement and cultivation of dragon fruit.

On the way here, Li Fan flipped through several books related to plants.

It was introduced above that the reason why the dragon fruit grows in the area where the ancient dragons are active is inseparable from the energy of the dragon attribute.

If you can use the dragon-attributed energy scattered by the Hexing Stone to achieve mass cultivation, you can get a lot of good things in the guild by first researching the report.

Lei Ge's natural adaptive mutation environment is also there.

After making the deployment, Li Fan returned to the headquarters.

Killing dragon fruit can be bought, but the seeds and cultivation materials can only be found in the headquarters research institute.

At this time, all the giant combat airships in the airport have completed the installation of injectors.

Why don't you take part in the ground battle and see how Huihui burps?
just forget it.

Li Fan on the Yanhuo sighed and walked onto the empty bridge.

Borrowing several books on plant cultivation in the research institute, Li Fan entered the laboratory with a chartered researcher badge.

Hearing that dragon fruit breeding was going to be killed, the female researcher in charge of the material warehouse went to help get it even though she was a little curious.

Waiting for the gap, he saw the largest experiment table, Sigg was crawling on it and sighed constantly, Li Fan walked over.

"It's you! The academic madman who spends 20 hours a day in the top-secret file room, meow!"

The painful accompanying reading experience left a deep impression on Sigg.

"No way, the longest day is only 19 hours."

"Uh, I can't remember meow, I just think that time was very long."

Sik said, his sleepy eyes were about to close.

"You put out so many test materials, is there a bottleneck in the research of the detonator?"

Li Fan looked at the desktop and said.

"Yes, meow. I have tried many combinations, but the results are not ideal."

"So it's so difficult?"

With so many materials put together, Li Fan felt dazzled just looking at it, let alone experimenting.

"What material is this silver crystal?"

Li Fan felt that he saw a very familiar material.

"This is amazing meow. The guild brought it back from the New World. It hasn't been named yet. It was entrusted to the Dragon Calendar Institute for research."

Li Fan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly grabbed the silver-white crystal with iridescent interior, and exclaimed, "Huihui is saved!"
