Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 719 701. Branch, the Nergigante’s Jade

"You just said that it actually wakes up easily now?"

Lan En's eyes remained motionless as he stared at the large gap that extended from Nergigante's right shoulder to his right chest, and asked Wen De.

Wen De also raised an eyebrow when he saw this.

"At least it wakes up only when it receives enough movement that its instinct recognizes it as an attack. Have you noticed?"

Lan En did not respond to him, but instead slowly stretched his hand into the wound of the Nergigante.

Aiden and Wende's eyes widened involuntarily.

The two of them originally wanted to stop Lan En, but by the time they reacted, the demon hunter's hand had already reached in.

If you touch him at this time, you will definitely wake up the Nergigante.

So the two of them could only stare and freeze there, not even daring to say anything for fear of making Lan En's hands tremble.

Garfield was also furious at this time because of nervousness.

From the perspective of the other people, Lan En slowly and steadily pulled something out of the Nergigante's wound.

During this period, although Nergigante made an uncomfortable snoring sound, he only twisted his body and was not awakened.

After Lan En completely pulled the thing out of the Nergigante's body, the ancient dragon's momentum dropped visibly.

But the sleeping position seems more comfortable and enjoyable.

When Lan En concentrated on completely pulling his hand out of the Nergigante's body wound, everyone suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'll go!" Wen De growled, "You should discuss it first before taking action!"

Lan En ignored him at this time, and instead focused on looking at the things in his hands.

It was a magnificent gray gem, similar in color to the thorns on the Nergigante's body.

And outside this gem, there is a living, thin tree branch wrapping around it.

The moment he took possession of this thing, Lan En was sure: the source of chaotic magic power is this small branch!

"Is this gem the Dragon Jade of the Nergigante?"

Lan En ignored Wen De's complaint just now and asked him.

Wen De, on the other hand, maintained the usual rough nerves of hunters and forgot what happened in the blink of an eye. He came over and looked at the object in Lan En's hand with great interest.

"This should be... Wow! You are so lucky! According to the naming rules, this should be called [The Jade of Nergigante]!"

No matter how loud the hunters were, it was not considered an 'attack' to the Nergigante, so Wende was able to express his surprise loudly.

"The dragon jade of ancient dragons is different from the stones of ordinary monsters. According to the research of scholars, their dragon jade really has the ability to regulate physical abilities and integrate external energy. It is more similar to the concept of 'dragon crystal' you mentioned before. "

"Many powerful equipment made from ancient dragon materials have to use ancient dragon gems as the core of unified energy."

Considering that the witcher was a 'foreigner' after all, Winder said a few words as an introduction.

But when Wen De said this, Lan En's expression became at a loss.

"No. I took apart its precious jade?!"

He looked at the gem in his hand, and then at the sleeping Nergigante.

"Is this guy going to die?"

"How can Gu Long die so easily?" Aiden waved his hand and added.

"Although it is a very important and miraculous organ, even if Gu Long loses the precious jade, it will only make himself weak. What will happen when it is regenerated?"

"Their most powerful and basic abilities ultimately rely on their bodies and vitality. Baoyu is just a relatively precious amplifier."

"By the way, compared to Nergigante's gem, what does this branch mean? Is there any plant tissue in Nergigante's body?"

"No, this is not something in the Nergigante's body." Lan En said solemnly while plucking the Nergigante's jade from the small branch.

"When I discovered it just now, this branch looked like it was trying to pull Baoyu out of the Nergigante's body, as if it were a living thing."

"In other words, this is an invasive species coming from your side?"

Wind looked at the small branch thoughtfully. From the biological characteristics, it looked like an oak branch.

"What if Nergigante first had a fight with the invasive species, and then through your [chaos energy], discovered that you came from the same place as that thing, and then vented its anger on you. This theory seems to make sense."

"But I always feel it's more than that." Lan En said softly while looking at the sleeping Nergigante while putting away the fresh branches that seemed to have just been broken off from the oak tree.

"When it attacks me, no matter how you attack me, it seems to be determined to kill me here regardless of it. That kind of persistence."

"Rather than venting my anger, I feel a bit like... responsibility? Mission? Anyway, something similar."

Aiden frowned subconsciously as he thought.

"You mean that Gu Long regards the maintenance of nature as his mission in a sense? Well, although he deifies nature a bit, there are indeed many scholars in Longli Academy who agree with this view."

"Anyway." Wende finally made a concluding speech.

"Let's get off the back of the Molten Dragon first. Although invasions by creatures from other worlds are not uncommon, we have to mention it to the Commander-in-Chief."

"By the way, we were fighting an ancient dragon on its back. Why didn't the Molten Dragon react at all?"

"The news we made hasn't broken anyone's skin yet," Aiden complained. "And this is a Molten Dragon that is about to die of old age. It is probably groggy when walking now. It is still unclear whether it can sense the Nergigante."

The three of them and one cat each collected the carapace, scales, sharp claws, bone spurs of the Nergigante on the ground that they had just knocked off, as well as the precious ore on the back shell of the Molten Dragon.

Then he summoned two winged dragons with a whistle and left the Laoshan Dragon's back.
-

When the three men and one cat returned to the investigation team's convoy, the commander-in-chief, April and the others had been waiting there early.

"Great, you are all fine!"

April shouted happily, and Garfield jumped from Wind's shoulders into April's arms.

"Wait a little longer, the commander-in-chief will gather the team to find you."

"That's no need." Lan En stepped forward and said, "We put the Nergigante to sleep, but from it, we got a problem that needs to be dealt with."

"Where is the Commander-in-Chief now?"

Ai Bo looked at the seriousness of the three of them and regained his composure at work.

"Uncle Guy came to him and said he had important information. They should be in the command vehicle now."

"Uncle Guy?" Lan En asked doubtfully. He had never heard of this name in the stars.

Wind explained to Lan En while waving his hand to follow.

"That's the hunter of the first group who wanders around all year round, the insect stick user of the dragon tribe. We were helped by him on the first night we came to the Great Ant Mound Wasteland. He is a very good uncle."

When the three of them arrived at the command vehicle where the Commander-in-Chief was, they heard a deep middle-aged male voice whispering quite seriously as soon as they entered the door.

"The advance of the Molten Dragon must be stopped! This is not an ecological survey that can succeed or fail, Jack!"

"This is a battle to prevent the ecology of the New World from being destroyed!"

The shocking news made Wind, Aiden and Lan look at each other in shock.

Wen De's hand that lifted the curtain was frozen there, not knowing whether he should let it go or not.
