Chapter 77 Water Beast

It is very common for hunting groups to cooperate with the Forestry Bureau.

After all, the first thing a formal hunting group needs to do after its establishment is to register officially and apply for a license.

Otherwise, let alone accepting tasks and conducting hunting work, the crime of possessing firearms privately is enough to make them suffer.

The era of the Great Cataclysm does not mean the collapse of order, at least not in the country where Yu Ke currently lives.

Facing an increasingly chaotic environment, the state machinery will only increase law enforcement efforts to eliminate any conspiracy to take advantage of the chaos to gain benefits!

Yu Ke followed the Silver Fox Hunting Group to the area where Pandora's body was suspected to appear.

Along the way, he learned a lot of information from Hu Yingjie.

The three A-level hunting groups participating in this operation are: Silver Fox, Fanglang, and Fenghuo, all of which are well-known hunting groups in the Danhang area.

Yu Ke originally thought that they would fight each other because they wanted to strengthen their own reputation and strive for higher profits, so he didn't want to contact the people of the hunting group to avoid getting into trouble.

In fact, it was the opposite.

Long before entering the Mirror Lake Forest, the leaders of the three hunting groups had held a small meeting in the Forestry Bureau.

In order to eliminate Pandora as soon as possible, the Forestry Bureau promised them that as long as they could find Pandora, the Danhang City government would give them a generous reward and some special preferential treatment.

Hu Yingjie didn't mention this part, but Yu Ke could guess that it was nothing more than giving some "help" to the families of the hunting group members in life.

Not long ago, Yu Ke rescued the Little Garden Work Station, and the Disaster Prevention Bureau also gave him rewards in this regard, but who made him a lone man, so he directly exchanged these rewards for a full set of bow and arrow equipment.

"The people of the Yalang found a suspected target half an hour ago. Because the other party was in the water and was extremely large, and someone in the team was injured, they did not verify it alone, but sent the news to us and the Fenghuo Hunting Group, hoping that the three parties could investigate at the same time."

Facing Yu Ke, a special forest patrol hunter, Hu Yingjie did not hide anything and told him everything he knew.

They were warned by the Forestry Bureau before entering the Jinghu Forest. They knew that the target had been rated as a ghost level and that the Disaster Prevention Bureau and even the Danhang City government paid special attention to it, so they were particularly cautious.

No one wanted to go wrong at such a critical moment.

"I want to act with you later. Don't worry. I just want to see what that thing looks like and not take credit."

Knowing that this was a collective action, Yu Ke thought about it and joined decisively.

He didn't expect to hunt Pandora. That thing was not something he could handle now. He just reported to the Forestry Bureau, and the rest was left to the Disaster Prevention Bureau.

At present, the [Investigator] profession has been successfully promoted, but the [Forest Patrol Hunter] is still nearly one-third short.

Although the gains brought by the Qishui Monkey King are not small, Yu Ke is still very happy to mix experience.

"No problem. You are a staff member of the Forestry Bureau. You are famous in our circle recently. It is our luck to meet a master like you in the depths of Jinghu Forest."

After all, he is the leader of the A-level hunting group. Hu Yingjie feels comfortable when he says this.

This is also what he thinks in his heart. Others don't know that he has some understanding of the future plans of the General Administration of Disaster Prevention. Extraordinary people of Yu Ke's level will definitely be reused. It is definitely right to make a good relationship now.

The two sides reached a consensus and no longer delayed in action. Hu Yingjie controlled the airship to speed up.

About half an hour later, the group approached the assembly point set up by the Yalang Hunting Group. The airship turned into the dense forest beside the water. Hu Yingjie contacted the leader of the Yalang Hunting Group and asked for the exact location.

Yu Ke also received a satellite communication from Anseli at this time. Coincidentally, the other party was also talking about the current matter.

"The A-level Garou hunting group reported that they found a beast suspected to be parasitic by Pandora. You are the closest to that place and have had contact with Pandora before. The Forestry Bureau hopes that you can confirm it. The Forestry Bureau will say hello to the Garou people. You can go directly there."

As one of the commanders of this operation, An Saili temporarily became the liaison between the Forestry Bureau and Yu Ke.

Since there have been cases of chaotic color parasitic beasts, the Forestry Bureau judged that Pandora would probably find a suitable carrier to carry out activities, so Yu Ke needed to confirm further.

Pandora itself has a high level of intelligence, which can be seen from its previous remote control of the human-faced owl and the stitched corpse monsters besieging the small garden workstation to create opportunities for its escape.

Considering that a rash move may alert the enemy, the Forestry Bureau hopes to succeed in one battle.

"I am now working with Silver Fox's people, and will soon meet with Yalang's people."

Yu Ke thought, isn't this a coincidence? He glanced at Hu Yingjie and the others, and explained to them,

"It's a call from the Forestry Bureau, hoping that I can go and confirm the target."

Hu Yingjie, who was sitting next to him, heard this and nodded with a smile to show that he knew. He was more certain that Yu Ke's position in the Forestry Bureau would definitely be high in the future. Hu Yuzhi, who was next to him, looked at Yu Ke with a brilliant look.

They didn't know about the Little Garden Work Station, they only saw that Yu Ke could get the Forestry Bureau to contact him specifically to entrust him with the task.

This respect is not something that everyone can have.

"That's great, keep in touch!"

Although I don't know how Yu Ke met the Silver Fox people, this is undoubtedly a good thing.

After hanging up the call, Hu Yingjie finally arrived at the assembly point by the airship. Yu Ke looked out and could already see the airships parked by several giant trees in front of him, as well as the hunting group members standing on the roots of the giant trees and the airships.

The arrival of Yu Ke and others soon attracted their attention, and someone waved to signal them to stop the boat in the empty space next to them.

"It seems that Yalang and Fenghuo have arrived. We are here in time."

Hu Yingjie said as he drove the airship closer, and when everyone gathered, he took the initiative to introduce Yu Ke to the other two hunting groups.

Yalang was stunned when he learned that Yu Ke was the person sent by the Forest Defense Bureau. He had just contacted a few minutes ago, and he was here now. It wouldn't be so fast even if he flew a plane, right?

After Hu Yingjie's explanation, he understood the situation.

During the introductions and greetings, Yu Ke had a preliminary understanding of the two hunting groups, Yalang and Fenghuo.

Unlike the Silver Fox Hunting Group, a civilian hunting group formed by the Hu brothers and sisters, Yalang and Fenghuo actually have a certain official background. The leader of Yalang used to be the captain of the criminal police in Danhang City, and Fenghuo was simply a team formed by retired soldiers.

Yu Ke didn't believe that their formation was not secretly supported by the official.

This is not a strange thing.

After all, the A-level hunting group has extremely high requirements for the combat quality or personal talents of its members, and it is even more difficult to find key personnel.

Most ordinary people can't even fight a few battles in their lifetime, so it's nonsense to ask them to go deep into danger to fight with ferocious beasts.

There are not many extraordinary people. The Disaster Prevention Bureau integrates civilian armed forces in this way, which not only makes it easier for them to deal with some "special events", but also guides public opinion with the reputation of the A-level hunting group, so that more hunting groups and awakened civilian extraordinary people will actively seek cooperation with the Forestry Bureau, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"Where is the suspicious target you found?"

Yu Ke didn't say much nonsense, looking at Zhao Qi, the leader of the Yalang Hunting Group, and asked proactively.

The Forestry Bureau, the Disaster Prevention Bureau and even the Air Force Base in Danhang area are waiting for news from here.

"Just in the Jinghu Lake in the southeast, two hours ago, we found that there were ferocious beasts in the fog on the surface of the lake during our close reconnaissance. Its external manifestations are very similar to the samples provided by the Forestry Bureau."

Zhao Qi took out his mobile phone from his pocket and opened the video that was loaded in advance.

The hunting group basically starts recording the whole process during normal hunting.

On the one hand, it was for the purpose of reviewing and discussing after the mission was completed, and to study what was lacking. On the other hand, it was also to record the battle situation to let others know that their achievements were not boasting, and to show their strength to the outside world.

Including Yu Ke, the other two hunting team leaders immediately came over to check the video content in the mobile phone.

Pulling the progress bar, the screen kept shaking, and the edge of some airships could be seen, and the sound of the team members' discussion came from the side.

Suddenly, a long hissing sound came from a distance, with a very special tone, which sounded somewhat similar to the sound of a whale, but it was sharper and the decibel was very high, which was definitely not something that ordinary beasts could make.

'Quick, speed up and get closer to find the source of the sound. '

Someone in the screen urged repeatedly, and the airship began to accelerate forward.

"Pay attention to the upper left corner of the screen. About ten seconds later, it will appear in the screen for the first time."

Zhao Qi, who had watched the video several times in advance, reminded him. Yu Ke moved his eyes to the left and soon noticed that the water in that area of ​​the screen had a clear bulge, and then a black shadow broke out of the water.

The water was shrouded in mist, and it was difficult to see its exact appearance. However, from the situation in the picture, the part of the beast exposed on the water surface looked a bit like a python. It was estimated to be about seven meters long, but the width of the upper and lower ends was obviously different.

In general, it was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, about one meter at the top, and about two meters near the water surface, so it looked very obvious even from a distance.

"According to my experience, the shape of a python is not like this, and it will not appear on the water surface in this way. I suspect that the body under the water is larger, and only its neck and head are exposed. Let's continue to watch."

Zhao Qi denied the speculation about the giant python.

The airboat in the picture has turned to the water area where the giant beast appeared. At this time, it is diving again, and the huge trunk is finally exposed.

As the distance gets closer, Yu Ke can already observe that there are indeed a large number of colorful flowers on the surface of this unknown giant beast. The scale is extremely large, especially on the back. Looking from a distance, it even forms a large flower bush on the water surface, which is still spreading upwards.

The members of the hunting group watching the scene also cried out in low voices.

After a brief appearance, the giant beast dived back into the swamp and disappeared, and the picture paused at this time.

"This is the entire picture. Is it what the Forestry Bureau is looking for?"

This level of giant beast is also the first time Zhao Qi has discovered it. He looked at Yu Ke with some expectation.

If this is the target, then as the first hunting group to discover it, Yalang will undoubtedly get the greatest credit.

"It's too far away, I can't be sure, it's indeed a freak, but I have to observe it closely!"

Yu Ke shook his head and said in a deep voice.

The size of this water monster is indeed exaggerated, but it is obviously unrealistic to want to determine whether Pandora is parasitic in it based on more than 20 seconds of footage. The appearance of the flower can only prove that it is infected.

There is still one chapter after 8 o'clock. I want to go out for a haircut, but I find that they are all closed. I am desperate.

I will go home for the New Year tomorrow.
