Chapter 1378 Animal Companions

Following the vines and climbing into the narrow crack, the two of them and the cat entered the super-sized "tree stump".

It is covered with weeds, small trees and shrubs, and various types of mushrooms that are difficult to identify.

I didn't smell the smell of rotten wood that I expected, but it did give people a messy feeling.

After looking around and kicking the "walls" around to feel the hardness, Gordon had a look of satisfaction on his face.

Alva was right, this was a natural place to set up camp.

Although it is a bit troublesome to clean up, even if it is cleaned, if it is not taken care of for a period of time, it will soon become overgrown with weeds.

But it's safe enough here and secluded enough.

In a dense forest full of dangers, it is not easy to find such a safe place.

"Okay!"

Gordon slapped Alva's arm so hard that he staggered.

"Hurry up and mark this place on the map, then go back and bring the tents and campfire stands, and then put a little effort into clearing away the weeds and shrubs, and the camp will be ready!

By the way, where are we now? "

Alva unfolded his huge notebook, filled with small and large notes.

The words, pictures, and simple signs were mixed together in a mess that only he could understand. Anyone else would be able to roughly make out the outline of an island, even if they had sharp eyes.

This is a half-finished map that has not yet compiled the information.

“This island is roughly in the shape of an equilateral triangle, and the island reef where the Blue Star is docked is located directly south of the island.

If we are now, we are probably here, east of the waist of the triangle. "

"It's good. From here, it's not too far to go to all areas of the island. From now on, we'll call this East Camp." Gordon nodded with satisfaction.

"OK."

Alva marked a triangle symbolizing the camp on the map with intricate lines and marked it with the words "Eastern Camp".

Gordon asked again: "How is the map drawing progress now?"

"If you are referring to the kind of map that is 'almost usable', it is probably less than 40% completed. According to the efficiency of the past few days, it will still take three or four days.

But it can only be said that a more detailed map, including various mineral veins and resource collection point information, is still far away. "

"As long as it works, let's continue."

Gordon was about to call the pterosaur and take off again, but Alva quickly stopped, "Wait a minute! To make a map that can be used normally, it is not enough to just scan the area with aerial reconnaissance."

Gordon looked suspicious, a little distrustful of this person.

Alva explained helplessly: "The vegetation around here is too dense, even worse than the core area of ​​the ancient tree forest.

Aerial reconnaissance can only see large areas of tree crowns, and the terrain cannot be clearly seen at all, so it must be confirmed from the ground. "

"All right."

Gordon knew that Alva would be a little confused when he encountered something he was interested in, but when it came to business, he would not be careless.

While carefully folding those notes into the notebook, then closing the notebook and putting it away, Alva said:

"It's a pity that we don't have tooth hounds, otherwise the investigation efficiency can be improved a lot. In this complex terrain environment, tooth hounds are more useful than pterosaurs."

"Meow?" Piglet tilted his head and looked at him, "Do you need the mobility of a tooth hound, or the sense of smell, or the combat ability, meow?"

"Of course it's mobility, sense of smell and combat ability, aren't you two?"

"Then I can find a way, meow."

Pork Chop sat down on the spot, buried his head in the package and rummaged around for a while, and finally found a small ceramic whistle.

"Is this the flute that calls for the Strange Face Tribe? Or is it the flute that calls for Detel?" Gordon asked curiously.

"Both are not meows. Although they are both whistles, they look completely different. And those two whistles are made of bone. This one is Tao's meow!"

"Uh, so, what is this for?"

"Watch it, meow!"

Pig Chop took the pottery whistle and went to the entrance and exit of the camp and blew it hard.

The pottery whistle made a strange "xiaxia" sound.

"Huh?" Alva came to Pig Chops and said in surprise: "This seems to be the sound of a small toothed beast?"

Pork Chop didn't respond to him immediately and continued to blow.

Soon, a response came from deep in the jungle.

Several khaki-colored thieves poked their heads out from the bushes.

"It's really a thief dragon. Did you learn this trick from Detel?"

Alva stared curiously at the few thiefosaurs that dared not approach, but were not hostile. "I remember that wild Deter would establish a very close cooperative relationship with thiefosaurs, cat-saurus and other small toothed beasts. Coming."

"Yes, Meow!" Pork Chop put his hands on his hips.

Then he scratched and touched the necks of several thief dragons here and there. The thief dragons quickly relaxed their vigilance and lay down.

Pig Chop turned around and explained: "If you are an experienced Deter hunter, you can imitate this sound directly with your throat.

They can even emit a variety of different sounds, allowing the thieves to accurately understand their intentions and even help them fight. "

"When did you learn this?" Gordon looked strange.

These things are simple to say, but no one has started with them, and they are not easy to learn.

Not long after arriving in the New World, I tried pork chop, but unfortunately I didn’t learn how to make it.

At that time, either he couldn't summon the thief dragon, or he wouldn't obey if he summoned him. Later, he didn't waste any more time on this matter.

When did you pick it up again?

Zhupa said somewhat coquettishly: "It was Yuzi who taught me meow. It told me that the sound I was imitating was wrong, so I got this ocarina meow for me.

With this kind of ocarina, it is impossible to give complex commands to the thieves, but it is still easy to gain their friendship. "

"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Gordon made a deliberate click.

The somewhat thin-skinned Pork Cho twitched his ears, turned his head, and ignored Gordon's teasing.

"You just have to lie down on the backs of these thief dragons, meow. They will lead us on the move, meow."

Alva, who was brave and curious, climbed up immediately, "Wow, he really won't attack us, can the thief dragon be so docile?

In other words, how should we command them? "

"I don't know, meow."

Gordon and the two were stunned, "I don't know what you mean?"

"It literally means meow!" Zhupa said angrily: "Before I have time to teach you those things, this mission has started, meow.

I can only learn from it again after I go back this time. "

Alva, who was lying on the back of the thief dragon, turned around in shock, "What should I do? Just being able to ride on it is useless?"

“I’ll give you a signal later, and they’ll go away on their own, but I won’t be able to control them wherever they end up.

Anyway, isn’t our purpose to walk around here and confirm the terrain? Just let them run around, meow. "

"Well, that's okay, at least it's faster than walking." Alva put on his goggles and twisted around eagerly.

Gordon's expression became embarrassed.

"Hey, Pork Chop, there's something I forgot to tell you."

"What?" Pig Chop looked at him warily.

"Just, after returning from this mission, you may not see the fish roe for a short time."

Gordon covered his face, "The guild headquarters summoned hunters to come back for reinforcements, and Aziz, the fisherman, must be on the list.

Caviar will probably follow Aziz back to the Old World. "

"Meow meow meow?!"

(Ps. Why did you only ride it here? Because the author only discovered that he could ride it after entering the Guiding Land.

Some readers are more concerned, so I will emphasize that the question of whether the Guiding Land is a mountain or an island is not clearly stated in the plot.

Personally, I think it looks like an island (at least similar to Dalian) in terms of CG graphics and other aspects.

You can understand that this is the setting in this book and does not completely represent the official setting. We hope that the official can complete this information in the future.
