Once again, the assembly bell on the side of the central square of Jieyun Village rang.
The contestants and monster hunters who had gone out to suppress the draconic beasts and guard the border towns gradually completed their missions and returned to Jieyun Village. The number of people gathered in Jieyun Village was gradually approaching the maximum capacity.
Finally, today, the Union began to take action, and this also meant that…
The Ancient Dragons began to move.
The Drakonid Village Chief slowly appeared when the entire square was filled with anxiety due to the dense number of people gathered. Unlike last time, when he acted as if it had nothing to do with him, this time, even he was equipped and ready to fight at any time.
" This time, we'll be facing three Ancient Dragons. We'll begin assigning missions now. The largest portion will follow me to fight the Mountain Dragon, while the remaining portion will be at the mission reception area to receive signal flares and encirclement area descriptions to kill the Mist Dragon and the Brilliant Black Dragon respectively.”
There was no smile on the old Dragonman's face. Fighting against the Ancient Dragon was a decision that would only result in a slim chance of survival. If he had other choices, the old Dragonman would not have been anxious about all the hunters of Jieyun Village.
This was because a large portion of them would become dregs after the Ancient Dragon's rebellion. Even their remains and equipment would become dust in history, never to be found after the battle and forever forgotten.
However, compared to contestants who might not put in any effort, these monster hunters who were born and raised here were the most reliable force!
It could be said that nearly 90% of the Hunters had been transferred to fight against the Mountain Dragon, hoping to get rid of the Mountain Dragon as soon as possible with the help of the Dragon Slaying Ship. The remaining 10% were to block the Mist Dragon and the Brilliant Black Dragon. If they could kill them, they would kill them. If they could not kill them, they would have to return to reinforce the main force and buy enough time.
The crowd followed the village chief.
April had also received the mission to encircle and annihilate the Mist Dragon. She gathered her party members at the place where the contestants gathered.
"We'll set off now. I've taken it to the Spirit Peak area. After investigating, I deduced that the place where the Mist Dragon is most likely to appear.”
After taking a glance at the well-equipped team, April led the way and got into the Maruta Carriage assigned by the guild.
Once again, they got into the Pill Bird Car. This time, the speed was even faster than the last time. However, the old driver was no longer smiling. Instead, his expression was solemn.
Ever since the Elu cats were treated as a part of Jieyun Village's life, they had been used to living in this place for many years. Now that they were allowed to return to the wild, they would be able to live with their own kind: Living together with the Black Cat Clan and the White Cat Clan was also a big event that involved a family. It was best if it did not happen.
A few Marrow-type Carriages that were full of people stopped at the foot of Mount Lingfeng. They did not continue to move forward. The Union's support camp for the hunters was only built halfway up the mountain. The plan for this crusade was to divide the people into several groups and go up the mountain from various directions to gradually narrow the encirclement. After discovering the Mist Dragon, they immediately fired a signal flare to inform all Hunters to surround the Mist Dragon and try their best to kill it. Even if it didn't work, they had to stall for time.
This was written on the guild's mission list, but to the people in the team, this time they came to borrow the head of the Mist Dragon.
After receiving the signal flares from the Marudori-type vehicle that was carrying the logistics supplies, all the teams set off according to their assigned areas.
However, everyone seemed to have overlooked one thing…There was more than one natural disaster in the stream…
As the hunters walked up the Spirit Peak, a dark lightning flashed across the forest. After the bushes shook slightly, the forest returned to its calm state.
The Spirit Peak was the highest peak of a mountain range in the Stream District. The Mist Dragon that had been discovered and awakened this time lived on the peak of the Spirit Peak.
Spirit Peak was originally a tourist attraction with beautiful mountains and clear waters. However, due to the excessive damage caused by the Mist Dragon's activities on the surface, the mountainside of Spirit Peak had now become dry and barren. Although it was not to the extent of becoming a desert, all that was left was basically a bare stone land.
Sieg flew at the front, waving the recurve knife in his hand for the first time. The unknown metal showed strange grayish-white patterns after being forged and quenched.
Stajiu was behind them. In order to not expose his target too early, Stajiu restrained his heat and hung at a distance not too far away from the group, observing the movements around him.
Lionheart walked in second place, holding the hammer in his right hand and his left hand in front of him. He twisted the tree branch that blocked his way. The energy belt on his glove flashed with a blue light, ready to activate the light shield to protect the person behind him at any time.
Little Bamboo was second from the bottom. Although she was unwilling to admit it, if they really fought, Luo Lian would definitely not be Little Bamboo's match if the distance between the two sides was less than 50 steps. A person who was about to step into the Saber God realm was not someone that Luo Lian, a mediocre sword artist, could match. Moreover, Little Bamboo and Si Dajiu had been partners for many years. Once something happened in the rear, the two of them could work together to resolve some simple crises as quickly as possible.
The remaining three walked in the middle, April on the right and Lorraine on the left. Although it was a job for mages, and they didn't have to be burdened with things like clearing the way and guarding, as mages who relied on their eyesight to cast spells, it was still necessary to have an excellent field of vision. Even though they were in the forest, Lorraine and April were in the best position. They could retreat into Lionheart's beam shield range and advance to gain a larger field of vision.
Special Sniper Anna, although she was not old, even considering her job, she still had to stand in the center of the team. Under protection, she could best display her ability to restrict the enemy and help her teammates.
"There are basically no more creatures around the mountainside of Spirit Peak.”
Little Bamboo casually complained. This journey was really too peaceful. Everyone was on high alert, but the surroundings were abnormally calm. It was so oppressive that she felt uncomfortable. She wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere, but she didn't know what to say. He could only complain.
"After all, the senses of living creatures are stronger than humans. Since we can sense the danger brought by the Mist Dragon, the other monsters should have moved long ago. Didn't we go to the frozen earth last time to prevent the monster from moving to the wrong house?”
Luo Lian, who also couldn't stand this strange atmosphere, also picked up Little Bamboo's words and started chatting.
It was indeed a little too much to be overly nervous at this time. If the Mist Dragon really took action, these shrubs would probably have disappeared long ago.
As the team gradually approached the area without vegetation, a familiar yet unfamiliar fellow followed the Spirit Mountain. Although it had lived in the stream area for a long time, it had never come to the Spirit Peak before. It was not only afraid of the power of the Mist Dragon, but also afraid that it would hurt itself after summoning the lightning. But this time…it would not…
A pair of beast eyes stared at the black cumulonimbus clouds on the top of Spirit Peak, revealing a trace of bloodthirsty indifference.
