The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters.

Chapter 76 Silver Fox Hunting Group (-in-)

Pilot the airboat to leave suspected hiding spot No. 3.

Yu Ke used satellite communication to contact the Forestry Protection Bureau and prepared to inform them of what had just happened.

He found Qishui Monkey King at suspected hiding spot No. 3, but failed to find any trace of Pandora.

The presence of the Qishui Monkey King convinced Yu Ke that Pandora was not in the hot spring forest area, otherwise the latter would show up to join the battle, and the Shadow Moon Leopard would also react, at least not provoking the Monkey King so recklessly and triggering a fight. .

After leaving the hot spring forest area, his mood returned to calm. The more Yu Ke thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

Moon Leopard is a little too keen, isn't he?
It is the overlord on the outskirts of Jinghu Forest. How can it know so much about the situation in the depths of Jinghu Forest?
You must know that Yu Ke followed the map route to find him. Except for resting at night, he neither got lost nor stayed in any place for a long time. How could the Shadow Moon Leopard arrive first and determine the location of Qishui Monkey King? ?

Yu Ke had read the internal files of the Forestry Protection Bureau on the Shadow Moon Leopard before. The hunting team commented that it had a strong sense of territory and often wandered around the periphery of the Mirror Lake Forest in search of prey.

In other words, the Shadow Moon Leopard rarely enters the depths of Mirror Lake Forest.

Looking at the communication signal displayed on the watch, Yu Ke put on a Bluetooth headset, guessing that the Shadow Moon Leopard was most likely to track Pandora's infection through some channel, or that there was some existence that provided guidance for it.

When I thought about it again, I thought it was ridiculous.

With such an aloof personality as the Shadow Moon Leopard, how could he possibly obey the orders of others?
During the pause of thought, the satellite communication was connected, and Axelis's voice came from the earphones.
"What's going on over there?"

Yu Ke briefly explained the process of hunting the Qishui Monkey King, focusing on the existence of the Shadow Moon Leopard and the subsequent self-repair of the Mirror Lake Forest.

"Did similar situations occur in other forest areas during this period?"

Not everyone can observe natural energy, and it was the [Spiritual Awakening] trait that allowed Yu Ke to accidentally discover this supernatural phenomenon. However, he believed that there must be extraordinary people within the Forestry Defense Bureau who are good at detecting supernatural phenomena.

Yu Ke is specifically asking about this now because he wants to find out whether the self-repair of the forest he saw not long ago is normal, or an abnormal change that occurs only when certain conditions are met.

"I don't have any relevant reports on the self-repair of Mirror Lake Forest yet, but I will ask my superiors. As for the Shadow Moon Leopard attacking an infected beast on its own, it has never happened before."

After listening to Yu Ke's description, Anseli's tone was obviously confused, and he paused and added,
"Of course, this is the first time that a strange, ghost-level containment object like Pandora has appeared. The Forestry Defense Bureau has no past files for comparison."

The Forestry Protection Bureau and even the General Administration of Disaster Prevention were still trying to cross the river by feeling their way through the special circumstances of the catastrophic era. This was actually the first time they encountered many things that went against common sense. It was not like ordinary criminal cases that could be judged by consulting past files.

In fact, the General Administration of Disaster Prevention has recently been trying to establish incident files on various strange contained objects. For example, the Pandora incident will definitely become a key case after it is over, and a separate file will be established for analysis and research across the country.

"Similar situations have never occurred before. It seems to be a special case. I don't know what conditions must be met. If the Forestry Protection Bureau can master this method, Pandora's infection of water and soil may be possible to be cured. "

Yu Ke once again emphasized the self-healing phenomenon of the forest. As for whether the Forest Protection Bureau can dig out the secrets hidden in it, it has nothing to do with him. He has done enough.

Looking at the watch map, Yu Ke turned to ask if there were any other suspected hiding spots near Anseli.

We are already here anyway, and it should be a few hours before dark. Yu Ke doesn't mind continuing to look for Pandora.

Finally, I learned from Anseli that the nearest hiding place to him was Hiding Point No. 2.

"I'm not sure if I can find Pandora in hiding spot 2, but I'll go take a look."

Finding Pandora is currently the primary goal of the Forestry Protection Bureau. Finding it is undoubtedly a great achievement, but Yu Ke has never promised easily. After all, he can only find it by testing water quality. No matter how powerful the spiritual awakening trait is, Requires close observation.

In fact, Yu Ke felt that there was a high probability that the Shadow Moon Leopard could sense Pandora's movements.

It's a pity that this guy comes and goes without a trace, and there is no way to communicate with him. If you want to meet him, you have to try your luck.

After checking the map and modifying the forward route, Yu Ke drove the airboat and turned into the northeastern tributary ahead.

It was already noon. Yu Ke, who had just experienced the battle, was in urgent need of replenishing his strength. He simply slowed down the speed of the airship and took out a large bag of beef jerky and a thermos cup from his backpack.

If you want to trek a long distance in the Jinghu Forest, it is best to keep the load at a suitable amount, so the food that Yu Ke carries with him is limited, and the rest is stored in the saddle of the Jinghorn Deer for supplies on the way back.

If he couldn't find Pandora before noon tomorrow, he would have to consider returning.

There was no way, who allowed Jinghu Lake to be polluted by Pandora? In the previous environment, there would be food everywhere in the forest. Yu Ke only needed to bring a knife, and he would be fine for half a month.

After adjusting the direction of travel, Yu Ke let the airboat float forward along the river, stretched his legs, took a sip of warm water, chewed beef jerky, and observed the surrounding environment.

As the airboat continued to penetrate deeper into the Jing Lake water swamp, Yu Ke could clearly feel that the forest land was gradually sparse, the water swamp river became wider, and even the cold wind blowing in the face was carrying heavy moisture.

Without the cover of the jungle, the snow above seemed to be expanding.

Yu Ke looked out, and there was even a thin layer of gray mist rising from the water in the distance, shrouding this side.

Looking at the gray fog, thinking about what to do later.

The sharp-toothed bow and arrows with only a few arrows left are temporarily out of use. When talking to Anseli just now, Yu Ke specifically inquired about the manufacturing progress of the new equipment and learned that the combat uniforms have been completed and the bows and arrows are being manufactured as quickly as possible. It will be done this afternoon.

As for the specific time, Axelis could not give an accurate time.

With this efficiency, Yu Ke couldn't say anything more. After all, it had only been a few days since he handed over the data to Anseli.

If he hadn't been promoted to a two-star hunter and participated in the Pandora incident that attracted special attention from the Forestry Protection Bureau and even the General Administration of Disaster Prevention, it would have been impossible to obtain a complete set of high-tech bows and arrows in such a short period of time.

"Hey! Brothers over there, look here!"

While Yu Ke was resting and eating, someone's call suddenly came from the forest nearby.

Yu Ke put down the thermos flask and turned to look in the direction of the sound. He saw someone on the right side of the river walking towards the roots of a giant tree. They jumped up from time to time, waving their arms and shouting, trying to Get his attention.

With his newly strengthened eyesight, Yu Ke noticed the bright silver badge on the chest of the man in the gray-green cloak without using a telescope.

Although the pattern on the badge cannot be seen clearly through the wind and snow, those who wear such badges are basically members of the hunting group. This was quickly confirmed by several people who appeared one after another behind him.

They all wore bright silver badges, and one of them held up a palm-sized book. It was a certificate issued by the Forestry Protection Bureau, which meant that they were a hunting group that had been formally registered with the Forestry Protection Bureau.

Apparently they also saw the ranger hunter suit on Yu Ke, so they used this method to identify themselves.
'I didn't expect to meet the hunting group here. It seems that they are not weak. '

Yu Ke turned around and held the joystick, leaning in their direction, thinking so in his heart.

It's not that Yu Ke's eyesight is now so good that he can see through other people's abilities from dozens of meters away, but that his current location is close to the core area of ​​​​Jinghu Lake. Not to mention ordinary people, even ordinary hunting groups don't dare to do so. to break into this area.

Being able to get here in such a short period of time is enough to prove the strength of this team.

"Is there a problem?"

Instead of rashly approaching the airship, Yu Ke still kept a certain distance from them and asked.

"Brother, our airship was damaged by a ferocious beast, and we want you to give it a ride."

The leading man was tall and strong. He took off the hood of his cloak to reveal a rough tough guy's face. The hair on both sides of his temples was a little thick, but his beard was cleanly shaved. When Yu Ke didn't speak, he thought he wasn't sincere enough, so he quickly added. ,

"Don't worry, we will pay you, the price is easy to negotiate!"

"I'm sorry, I have to continue deep into the Jinghu Lake, and I have no plans to return for the time being."

Yu Ke had to continue to the suspected hiding spot No. 2. He was not interested in acting as a temporary boatman for these people, so he waved his hand and refused.

"We are not going back. I am the leader of the A-level Silver Fox Hunting Group. Just now there was news from other A-level hunting groups that the Forest Defense Bureau is now looking for something. We are eager to take the boat just to go there for verification! "

Seeing that Yu Ke turned around and was about to leave, the hunting group leader couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He took the ID from the group member's hand and explained.

These words successfully stopped Yu Ke. After a brief hesitation, he changed the direction and drove the airship towards the Silver Fox Hunting Group.

As mentioned before, in order to let the hunting group help find Pandora, the Forestry Protection Bureau deliberately spread some information that was difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Many lower-level hunting groups believe that there are natural treasures in Jinghu Forest through these rumors. This is just their wishful thinking. A-level hunting groups basically have their own information channels, and they generally communicate with the Forestry Defense Bureau. There is a partnership.

Therefore, they received more accurate information, and even accepted the task from the Forestry Protection Bureau in advance to assist the hunting team in searching for Pandora in the Jinghu Forest.

Of course, the Forestry Protection Bureau most likely just told them what the thing they were looking for looked like and what kind of harm it would cause.

The exact information about Pandora is still classified.

Therefore, the requirements for these A-levels are not high. As long as you find the target, you can immediately receive a large reward.

In other words, apart from the people from the Forestry Protection Bureau, the A-level hunting group also knew what the Forestry Protection Bureau was urgently looking for.

The people in front of them first showed their hunting group IDs and then took the initiative to identify themselves. They were undoubtedly trustworthy.

Yu Ke was very concerned about the "news" from other hunting groups mentioned by the hunting group leader. He wanted to know more, so he moved the airship closer.

According to the specifications of Yu Ke's airboat, it is no problem to squeeze in about five people, but it will be slower. And it seems that not all members of the hunting group here want to board the boat, so they discussed it with each other. Only three people came up.

The remaining two people will stay here to guard their prey and try to repair the airship.

Yu Ke noticed that there were archers in the Silver Fox Hunting Group, and took the initiative to ask for arrows as a reward for taking them a ride. The latter readily agreed. Anyway, they stayed here and did not need to participate in the battle anymore. They were quite generous with the arrows. He took out half of the bag and handed it to Yu Ke.

After everyone boarded the airship, Yu Ke gave up the driving position and let the leader of the Silver Fox Hunting Group, who knew the route, take over the joystick.

Taking this opportunity, people on both sides made introductions.

The three people boarding the boat were Hu Yingjie, the leader of the Silver Fox Hunting Group, and his sister Hu Yuzhi. These two siblings were both extraordinary beings and core combat members of the Silver Fox Hunting Group.

Although they are brother and sister, their appearance is quite different.

Hu Yingjie looked like a rugged and tough guy with extraordinarily thick hair. It was unknown whether he was affected by extraordinary powers, but Hu Yuzhi was a pretty girl with an oval face and a very fond of laughing.

The other is Li Ankui, the medical staff member of the hunting group. He wears glasses and carries a medical kit on his waist. He looks like a gentle young man, but he carries a sniper rifle behind his back. He is a ruthless man with both civil and military skills.

Yu Ke had no intention of concealing his identity, and was about to introduce himself when he heard Hu Yuzhi exclaim,
"Long-handled axe, bow and arrow, lone forest hunter. You are Yu Ke, right?"

Because of the popularity of the hunting diary series of videos, Yu Ke had already attracted the attention of major hunting groups in the Danhang area earlier. Even if there was no real person leaving the country, his weapons had become a very conspicuous personal label.

Hu Yuzhi obviously watched the video a lot, and her eyes were shining when she looked at Yu Ke.

"I am indeed the patrol hunter Yu Ke. This time I also received a mission from the Forestry Protection Bureau to find the target. But you guys also saw it. I have gained nothing from wandering around in the Jinghu Forest. On the contrary, I can't get in. Fewer arrows.”

Yu Ke didn't mention anything about Qishui Monkey King, he just showed a helpless expression and shrugged his shoulders.

"Haha, you are just joking. Except for a master like you, who would dare to go deep into the Jinghu Forest alone?"

Hu Yingjie had not forgotten the sight of Yu Ke driving an airboat alone in the middle of the river. Except for this ruthless man who dared to chase the hunter-faced owl in the snowstorm and fight with monsters, ordinary hunters dared to shuttle through the mirror with such arrogance. Lakes and rivers?
"Tell me about the information you got. Are you sure it's the target that the Forestry Protection Bureau wants to find?"

Yu Ke did not mention the title Pandora, but asked the question to Hu Yingjie, because he did not know to what extent the Forestry Defense Bureau disclosed these A-level hunting groups.

"I just received the news, so I can't be 100% sure, but the people from Yalang said that the guy appeared in the Jinghu Lake. He was extremely large, and there were a lot of brightly colored flowers on the part of the body that was exposed out of the water, and there were also extremely weird things. The color is basically in line with the description of the Forestry Protection Bureau.”

Hu Yingjie had not seen it with his own eyes, so he could not vouch for it, so he could only pass on the information he obtained to Yu Ke.

　Today’s chapter makes me feel bad.

　　I ordered fried chicken for dinner, and I exploded after eating it. I wondered if they were clearing out the goods at the end of the year, and I won a big prize. I immediately had diarrhea after eating, which was hard to bear.
