Brave the world of monster hunting with a pokeball

Chapter 77 Snow Shadow
Stab it!Hula!boom!
Li Fan slashed wildly in the cave training ground with a knife, even when he cut to the ice wall, he didn't stop at all.

"What's going on here? Why are they all standard slashing movements?"

Yudora waited and watched for a moment, then questioned in shock.

The assimilation effect of the dragon-slaying equipment is a strong urge to slash. According to common sense, it is just a random shot, and it will be slashed out indiscriminately.

"Perhaps after countless times of training, Li Fan has trained this set of movements into an instinctive meow."

Dilu analyzed.

After hacking like this for three hours, Li Fan fell to the ground from exhaustion.

When he regained consciousness, he was already lying in a warm tent.

"How does it feel meow?"

Dilu brings a bowl of hot soup.

"It's pretty cool."

"Meow?"

"Well, it's quite cool, slashing wantonly, you don't need to think about anything, and your mind enters a state of emptiness."

Li Fan recalled.

The adaptation training went on for four days in a row.

On the fifth day, Eudora started practicing in the cave for a while, only to hear a bang.

The walls on both sides of the cave suddenly cracked. Seeing several cracks spreading to his feet, Li Fan quickly dragged Yudora up.

Boom! Two people and one cat grabbed Xiang Chong and hung in the air, while the cave training ground below had collapsed in large areas.

Is this killing the training ground?It's all ice and it's not solid.

No matter how much Li Fan thought about it, he never thought that this would happen.

After falling into the snow, Yudora took off the dragon-slaying helmet, and put on the remaining three pieces of dragon-slaying equipment, which could be resisted by willpower.

"I thought about adapting to a full set of equipment today, but now it's all over."

Depressed, Yudora picked up a cotton hat and put it on her head.

"It's good that people are fine, and the venue can be found again."

Li Fan is still relatively optimistic.

"A lot of meat cats"

Looking at the collapsed ruins, Di Lu's eyes glowed.

"Beast meat?"

Li Fan followed suit.

At the section of the collapsed ice layer, a cave about the size of the training ground was revealed.

Pieces of frozen meat with the skin removed piled up in the corners, looking a bit like a meat freezer in a supermarket from a distance.

The team leaned over, and Li Fan picked up a piece of frozen meat. Seeing the rough tear marks on the edges, he knew it was not stored by humans.

"Refrigeration also knows how to remove the fur. This is a strange thing."

Li Fan commented.

"There is also a hole similar to the courtyard of the training ground above, but this one seems to be blocked."

Eudora said, pointing to the ice at the top of the cave.

"Closed? Could it be that."

Thinking of something, Li Fan walked out from the section of the ice layer, released two flying insects one after another to climb over the ice layer, and reached the top of the ice layer.

After searching for a short time, I dug under a shallow snow area, and after a while, I came across a round ice cube condensed from crushed ice.

After smashing it with Zhanlong Taidao, except for the larger diameter, it is almost the same as the patio opening of the training ground.

"What is Li Fan doing up there?"

Di Lu raised her head and asked curiously.

"This cave is not natural, it is a monster's lair."

"what?"

"Meow?"

Upon hearing Li Fan's conclusion, Yudora and Di Lu were immediately stunned.

The team quickly gathered below, and Li Fan immediately explained.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is a double-cave lair, which can meet the two functions of food storage and rest. The owner hasn't come back for a long time, so the traces of life in the rest cave are not obvious. Of course, it is also possible that the owner is busy. Hunting, or other reasons did not stay at all."

"Can you tell what kind of monster it is?"

Eudora asked.

"Judging from the crushed ice currently closing the entrance to the storage cave and the cracks on the meat, the Icetooth Dragon is the most likely."

"Could it be that Snow Shadow?"

Eudora looked forward to it.

"I don't know, but the characteristics given by the guild are that the fur color and carapace are gray, so it should be easy to determine."

"Then what should I do now, meow?"

Dilu, who was sitting on top of the pile of frozen meat, asked.

"I haven't thought about it yet, but if we transport these pieces of animal meat back to the camp, we will have a lot of time to think about it."

The team sprang into action immediately.

The little fool flew back and forth five times while eating, and finally emptied all the pieces of animal meat in the cave.

If the hunter team doesn't have to think about hunting, they will have a lot of free time every day.

So the team had lunch and began to discuss the deployment. They continued to study until after dinner, and came up with a plan to temporarily suspend the adaptation training and monitor the collapsed cave.

The first reason, of course, is to try to make a hunting contract.

The secondary reason is that an ice tooth dragon whose base has been stolen, no one knows what the other party will do.

Moreover, the camp is too close to the cave training ground. If the camp is attacked and destroyed, the team will not be able to think about it.

The next day, two people and one cat took turns squatting in the wild, and that's how it started.

The specific implementation method is to select a relatively high hillside in the distance.

After hiding his body, he guarded the collapsed training ground for 24 hours.

To configure a team with only two people and one cat, it was actually quite difficult to implement this kind of deployment in the past.

However, the current food is too much to eat, so it is natural to concentrate on squatting.

During extremely bad weather, monsters will also minimize their activities, so the team intends to deploy and control only when the weather is normal.

One day, two days, three days.
At noon on the fourth day, when Udora was calling Li Fan to change shifts, two ice-toothed dragons appeared in sight.

Yudora quickly crawled to the ground, and pulled the camouflage net covered with white leaves towards her.

"Half of my body is exposed"

Li Fan had no choice but to pull back the camouflage net a little bit.

The two moved towards the middle in a tacit understanding and raised the binoculars at the same time.

On the white snow field, two ice-toothed dragons are walking slowly one after the other.

Among them, the larger one in the front is extremely conspicuous on the snow because of its light gray fur and carapace.

Like a shadow cast on white paper.

A smaller ice-toothed dragon in the rear has regular white fur and carapace. If it weren't for the pair of amber fangs in its mouth that resembled a saber-toothed tiger, it might be difficult to locate its trace at the first sight on the snow field.

"No wonder the guild named it Snow Shadow. When it moves on the snow field, it really looks like a shadow."

Eudora sighed.

"This carapace color should not be conducive to hunting or avoiding natural enemies."

Li Fan speculated.

"Uh, being able to appear here means that the collapsed cave training ground is its lair. If it finds that the lair has been destroyed by someone, will Snow Shadow go crazy?"

Eudora asked worriedly.

"Not necessarily, the emotional expression of monsters is very different from that of humans, but it should be uncomfortable."

Li Fan judged.

The two ice-toothed dragons set foot on a snow slope unhurriedly, and then reached the highest point after going up.

The collapsed training ground cave is just below, just opposite here.

pat!

Xueying was stunned for a moment, and then the brown-haired snow deer in his mouth fell to the snow.

The ice-toothed dragon behind him came to the edge of the cliff, stretched his neck and looked down, then tilted his head and fell into deep thought.

"Cough cough."

Eudora coughed lightly twice.

"No communication, okay, what can I translate?"

Li Fan was speechless.

This state lasted for about 2 minutes, and the smaller ice tooth dragon glanced sideways and glanced at Snow Shadow.

Snapped!The black three-toed winged claw slapped the snow, raised his neck and shook his head, then turned and left.

Ow!Ow?
Some Xue Ying, who was at a loss, hesitated for a moment, picked up the snow deer again, ran to the front of the ice tooth dragon, and placed it in front of the opponent.

The ice tooth dragon shook its tail and walked around.

Xueying stared at the back of the other party's leaving, the brilliance in his eyes gradually dimmed.

"You don't need to translate this scene, I know what happened"

Eudora said sadly.

Whoosh!Snow Shadow suddenly jumped up and jumped into the air.

When the wing membranes on both sides are stretched to the maximum, they dive and glide down.

After falling into the collapsed lair, Snow Shadow smelled the residual smell, peeled off the broken ice with his claws, and repeatedly observed the broken ice layer, as if he didn't want to let go of all relevant traces.

In the end, the three-toed claw marks all over the surface of the ice made Xueying fall into deep thought.

"Do you think it will be fooled?"

Eudora asked uncertainly.

"We don't have the material for the bombardment dragon, so it's unlikely, but at least we can guide the other party away from thinking in the direction of the hunter team."

While Li Fan was speaking, Xueying quickly climbed back to the snow slope, grabbed the snow deer and quickly turned back.

Hold it down with the claws, bite and tear.

The steaming animal meat was placed in the cave where the fault was exposed due to the collapse of the ice layer.

The scarlet blood that was about to freeze and coagulate on the wing claws was smeared on the surrounding ice.

"The caves where the food is stored are all exposed, why does Xueying still put animal meat in there?"

Eudora asked puzzled.

"Could it be that it wants to investigate the real culprit?"

Li Fan speculated.

After carefully observing the surrounding environment, Xueying jumped up again, and after climbing and jumping a few times, she came to the top of a higher slope.

He lifted the snow up with his claws and kept covering his body.

After completing the camouflage, the amber eyes narrowed into a thin line, staring at the collapsed lair.

"This snow shadow is so smart."

Yudora also didn't expect that the other party would have a plan similar to that of the Hunter Squad.

"It feels like a carapace that is approaching gray, which makes Xueying look like this."

Li Fan guessed.

"Oh? Does that color represent a subspecies with outstanding intelligence?"

Eudora asked.

"It's not a subspecies. Judging from the appearance and the right to choose a mate, it's just a variation in pure color."

Although the change of the simple appearance characteristics is very slight, it is still a variation.

"Then why is Xueying so smart?"

Eudora could not understand.

"Children who are not cared about will be more self-reliant. I guess Xueying's carapace color variation may be congenital. As a result, he was not seen by his peers since he was a child. He also has great constraints in avoiding pursuit and hunting, but it does not Instead of giving up, I have found a survival path that suits me through continuous training.”

Li Fan explained.

He felt that neither the guild nor the hunter team could accurately detect this difference.

"That is to say, its intelligence was acquired by force?"

Eudora asked tentatively.

"Well, that's a pretty good summary, roughly the feeling."

"It's a pity to kill the individual ice tooth dragon who worked so hard. Why don't you try to capture it?"

Eudora suggested.

"I'm afraid it's difficult. There are so many routines for this kind of individual, and it's difficult just to track them. But monsters are monsters after all. If you go out and mock them now, you might lose your mind."

Li Fan vaguely sensed an opportunity.

"It feels a little bit reluctant. Since they are all squatting for a long time and Xueying has no food source, it will definitely be more beneficial for us to drag on."

Eudora suggested.

Before witnessing, the type of monster was not even sure, so the team definitely couldn't make advance deployment.

"That's right, then spend it first, but when you change shifts in the future, you have to hide a little bit."

Li Fan agreed.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, except for the intermittent disappearance of more than ten minutes, Xue Ying basically didn't move anywhere.

Yudora even felt that the other party was sleeping with one eye open.

As for the team, as long as there is no extremely bad weather, they can live comfortably.

At noon on the fourth day, Li Fan was so proficient that he crawled to the side and raised the binoculars.

"Is something wrong, why do I feel that Xueying has become fatter?"

Li Fan knew the standard size of monsters, so he was particularly sensitive to this aspect.

"It seems to be a little bit, shouldn't it be sulking. The whole body is swollen with anger, right?"

Eudora forcefully explained.

"No, even if there are swollen organ structures on the body surface, the whole body will not become fat."

Li Fan looked through the observation records as he spoke, and found that the time Xueying left was obviously not enough to hunt, but it was very regular.

"Wait a minute. There should be another cave for storing food!"

Li Fan suddenly thought of Zhao Dehan.

"what!"

Yudora almost got up in surprise, but after thinking about it, she felt unreasonable.

"If Xueying really has a cave for storing food, why didn't he show it to the female ice tooth dragon before?"

"It may be that the ice tooth dragon left too resolutely, which made Xueying sad."

Li Fan guessed.

"Ugh! All these days of hard work have been in vain."

Udora covered her head with her hands and buried her face deeply in the snow.

Looking at this state, Li Fan probably guessed why those teams were going crazy.

"Don't worry, we have nothing to lose. Xueying will lie on her stomach after eating, and her athletic ability will definitely deteriorate."

Li Fan said comfortingly.

"Really?"

"Yes."

With renewed confidence, Yudora continued to observe and collect information to find possible turning points.

After the rotation, Li Fan also released puffs for combat drills.

It is true that there are Paohulong individuals that can adapt to the extremely cold environment, but that is the result of long-term adaptation.

Among them, only suppressing the secretion of foaming synovial fluid requires long-term practice.

The advantage of Puff is that the posture when gliding is perfect, and it can adapt to the ice surface basically without training.

Seeing the light puffs gliding at high speed on the ice, Li Fan started thinking.

In this case, it is best to choose a wide ice surface for the battle, and there are no ice and rock walls with high drops around.

If you want to escape, the little idiot can easily dive to intercept it.

However, this also limits the application of paralysis traps.
While thinking, a rumbling sound passed through the mountains.

"This rhythm, this sound is a booming dragon!"

Li Fan stood up suddenly and put the puff into the ball.
