Chapter 1050 A Man Like the Wind
Feng Ying felt a little regretful that she could not eat the spirit deer meat from the New World.
However, the sharp-eyed Aiden found a series of small hoof prints. After saying hello to his companions, he left the formation and came back with a round mushroom pig on his back.
It was almost noon, and the pork chop set up a barbecue grill.
Theoretically, eight people plus cats and dogs should eat a pig, but the hunters have a large appetite, and with Aibo being such a big eater, a mushroom pig is almost not enough.
Gene, who was still not satisfied with the pork chop's cooking skills, was ready to catch another one, but was stopped by Gordon, after all, they were not here for a picnic.
He opened the map and showed it to everyone.
"Where are we now?" Gordon suddenly wanted to test the basic skills of the young people.
The young hunters and editors took out the map, compared the terrain with the routes they had taken before, and quickly gave the specific coordinates.
Even the three editors with less experience in the wild were not ambiguous.
Gordon nodded, but didn't praise them. It's not normal for a recommendation team to not have this basic skill.
"This is the area we are responsible for investigating this time." Gordon drew a circle on the map.
Then he pointed to another place, "A few days ago, Ansel and I found a piece of still red-hot volcanic rock here. There is no active volcano nearby. It can be basically concluded that it is the tissue that fell from the lava dragon.
We continued to search around the volcanic rock, but failed to find more clues. After reporting the information to the commander-in-chief, the commander-in-chief decided to expand the search range."
Gordon briefly explained the cause and effect of the mission.
Feng Ying glanced at the map, "This area is not small, we have to search in different places. Even so, it will take more than half a day to complete the investigation."
Gordon smiled and pointed to the insect guide cage on his waist, "If they were not there, it would be like this. You should have heard about the role of insect guides. It's a good time to practice it later."
Gordon opened his insect guide cage, pinched out a piece of still warm black stone from it, broke it into pieces and distributed it to everyone, "This is the sample from the volcanic rock.
Put this in the insect guide cage, the insect guide will remember its smell, and as long as there is an object with a similar smell nearby, they will start to "navigate."
Everyone followed suit, and Alva opened the insect guide cage very gently. Gordon felt that this guy must have carefully observed those shiny little creatures.
"Normally, it is this kind of fluorescent yellow light. If they suddenly emit red light and disperse, it means that the monster is close at hand. If they turn blue, it means that the smell of the ancient dragon species has been discovered. You must remember these."
"Is there any special expression of the breath of the ancient dragon species? This magical nature!" Alva sighed sincerely.
"That's about it. You can experience more details by yourself."
Gordon closed the map, "After entering the target area, two people will disperse in groups and explore separately. If there is a situation, even if you fire a flare, find a clue, green, and emergency assistance, red, are there any questions?"
Alva actually wanted to say, did you end this teaching too quickly?
But after thinking about it, he didn't say much. The members of the recommendation group are also the elites among the elites, and they don't need to be helped to walk.
Along the way, Gordon introduced some environmental creatures seen on the road to the recommendation group, such as poisonous pitcher plants and recovery honey bugs.
Jin and the others were very surprised, only Feng Ying remained calm.
The strange environmental creatures and hunting tools in the Land of Fire are even more than those in the New World.
What are the ghost fire birds, stone soldier hermit crabs, and colored beetles? Scholars can't explain how they evolved, and can only attribute it to the "high-energy environment".
Arriving at the target area, Gordon once again emphasized the importance of vigilance and asked the team to disperse.
Nari looked at the hunter in black armor in front of him in surprise.
Gene, who was always noisy, became silent after pulling down his armor. The black cat Nanasi followed closely behind him. The man and the cat were like black ghosts, shuttling silently in the dark forest.
Their pace was not fast, but she felt a little behind.
Nari pursed her lips and tried to speed up her pace. If she couldn't even do this little thing, she would never catch up with her sister.
Like Feng Ying, Aiden, who was wearing a defense team suit, had a signature sunny smile on his face.
His pace was neither fast nor slow, like an outing, which made his partner a little dissatisfied.
The competitive young editor couldn't help but urge, "You should walk faster, or other groups will get the clues first!"
"Don't worry, there are a lot of gas frogs in this area, be careful. Ah, you stepped on it."
After walking in the forest for a while, Feng Ying suddenly stopped.
She turned her wrist.
The Kinsect, which had fallen into a deep sleep two days after going to sea and whose breathing became weak, woke up at this time.
They shook their wings and twisted their abdomens, just like people stretching when they wake up.
"They were full of vitality in the Land of Fire, but became lazy in the Old World. They fell asleep directly in the sea, and woke up slowly in the New World. Is it really because of the energy environment?" Feng Ying said to herself.
"Let's give it a try."
She raised her arm and the Kinsect flew out. Pulling the silk to gain momentum, Feng Ying flexibly jumped onto the branches of a big tree beside her.
After that, she released the Kinsect again, moved in the air, and in the blink of an eye, she came to another big tree.
Feng Ying almost couldn't help cheering out loud after clenching her fists excitedly.
She was most worried about the slumber of the Kinsect after going out to sea. If she lost the Kinsect and the Wireworm Skill, her strength would be greatly weakened.
Fortunately, the Kinsects seemed to adapt well and even liked the high-energy environment of the New World.
Maybe they could even give birth to offspring?
"Huh?!" Apo under the tree screamed.
She tried to launch the hook at the branch, her movements were a bit awkward, but she successfully came to the branch where Feng Ying was.
"Are you going to move on the tree like this?"
Feng Ying didn't seem to expect Apo to be able to keep up. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "That would be the best."
Gordon ran at a relatively even speed.
At this speed, he could devote enough energy to pay attention to everything around him, and it was also more labor-saving. He wouldn't be out of breath even if he ran for an hour.
This was the best speed summarized from many years of experience, at least for him.
A figure rushed out from beside him like the wind, without even making any footsteps, which scared him.
"Ah——! It's the Jungle Archaeopteryx! This creature unique to the New World symbolizes the intermediate state of bird evolution!"
The Archaeopteryx was caught by Alva before it could react. His movements were powerful but not rough, ensuring that the Archaeopteryx could not break free while not hurting it.
Gordon ran over helplessly, wanting to remind him that this was in the wild and he should be careful.
But at this moment, a gorgeous blue-purple figure flashed across the scholar's vision.
"Is that! The Archaeopteryx messenger mentioned in Master Yuanye's work?!" Alva let go of the Jungle Archaeopteryx and ran away.
As if he had eyes under his feet, he kicked a paralyzed gas frog hidden in the bushes to the side and rushed straight to the particularly rare ancient creature.
". You **** run slower!"
