Su Yi was just trying to find the way from the ancient tree forest to the big anthill wasteland, but he saw a silver figure wrapped in a strong wind, slowly rising from the coastal plain, and then flying towards the crown of the ancient giant tree.
"Damn! I almost forgot that this place is also the Steel Dragon's official resting spot!"
Su Yi hurriedly pulled Lu Cao and the stubborn bird that was still searching everywhere and returned the same way.

Chapter 24: Specialties of the breeding season, the favorite of the stork
Su Yi, Lu Cao and Zaoniao quickly slipped down from the tree canopy and hid inside the ancient giant tree. Then, the howling sound of a storm came from above their heads.
"That was close. I almost forgot that steel dragons like to rest in high places." Su Yi let out a sigh.
The "Ga" scratching bird seemed a little lost.
Su Yi comforted him, "Don't be discouraged, we will go and dig out the herbivorous dragon's nest later."
Unexpectedly, the bird made a chirping sound and shook its head in dissatisfaction.
It was the bird that took Su Yi to the herbivorous dragon's nest, otherwise how did he get the egg dishes he usually gets?
It was tired of eating herbivorous dragon eggs and had long wanted to change its taste.
"Herbivorous dragons can't do it, just crown dragons, if not, then pterosaurs, there is always one that suits you." Su Yi quickly comforted him.
"Haha!" Unexpectedly, as the bird listened, its eyes lit up and it turned around and walked to the other side of the tree passage. It looked so excited that even its fear of the ancient dragon disappeared a little.
"Hey! Where are you going?" Su Yi hurriedly followed.
The road ahead became more and more familiar. Gradually, the man, the cat and the bird arrived at the observation deck where Su Yi climbed the ancient giant tree and looked at the panoramic view of the ancient tree forest with Lu Cao.
At this time, looking out towards the gap in the giant tree and beyond the ancient giant tree, all you can see is the gray sky and the howling wind.
"Ga! Ga!" The scarab bird ignored this and kept pointing its claws at their upper and rear parts.
"What?" Su Yi looked in the direction the bird was pointing, puzzled.
I saw other trees growing inside the ancient giant tree growing slender branches, with countless vines entangled between the branches.
Between the branches and vines, a nest composed of various vines and branches was built. If you didn't look carefully, you would think it was just the entanglement of branches, leaves and vines.
"There, there looks like a nest?" Su Yi squinted his eyes and looked carefully. He could vaguely see something that looked like eggs in the nest.
In the past, this area was a resting place for pterosaurs. Judging from the size of the nest, this is most likely a pterosaur's nest.
Su Yi looked at the nest hanging in the air. It was obvious that it was impossible for the bird to climb up with its size and body structure.
Su Yi understood and said with a smile: "Scratching bird, you must have been craving for it for quite some time."
"Ga!" The tickling bird urged Su Yi eagerly. It had never tasted the pterosaur's eggs yet.
Su Yi pointed at the bird and said, "You kid~"
Su Yi switched the catapult to a grappling hook. After carefully identifying it for a while, he cast the grappling hook to the place where the vines were entangled. After pulling the grappling hook to make sure it was firmly grasped, Su Yi was easily pulled up to the nest by the grappling hook.
"Phew, luckily this nest is solid enough." Su Yi steadied his body so that the nest stopped shaking, and then looked into the nest.
"Eh?" Su Yi was a little surprised by the scene in front of him.
I saw a football-sized egg mixed in among four cantaloupe-sized eggs.
"Is this also a pterosaur egg?" Su Yi was surprised, but then the guide insect on his waist flew out slowly and attached itself to the larger egg.
"Could it be..." Su Yi opened the jar containing monster traces on his waist and took out the feather of the poisonous bird. In an instant, a part of the guide insect attached to the egg separated and attached itself to it.
Su Yi slapped his head and remembered: "It's the poisonous bird. According to the setting, the reproduction method of the poisonous bird is nest parasitism, just like some cuckoos in reality."
The so-called nest parasitism is the act of laying one's eggs in the nests of other creatures with similar feeding habits and letting them raise the eggs.
But the nest parasitism of the poisonous bird is more cruel. The young of the poisonous bird will hatch first, and then push the eggs of the pterosaur out of the nest, and enjoy the care of the pterosaur alone until they can fly and find food independently.
When he first learned about such a habit, Su Yi couldn't help but sigh, he didn't expect that such an ugly and cute guy would have such a bad breeding habit.
Of course, this is the way of survival of natural selection. The so-called high and low are just subjective emotions of human beings. Isn't Su Yi, who stole the eggs, even worse?
In any case, now, all these are good for Su Yi.
"Big harvest! Hurrah!" Su Yi stuffed the eggs into the [item] one by one, then turned around and fired a hook to catch the vines, swinging down the nest.
At the seaside camp, at the urging of the bird, Su Yi brought out the egg custard made from pterosaur eggs.
In fact, after adding water and seasonings to make egg custard, the taste of pterosaur eggs and herbivorous dinosaur eggs is not much different, but the scratching bird still eats it with relish out of curiosity.
Su Yi sat aside, opened the Golden Finger "Hunting Guide", and checked the harvest of the past few days. He collected a lot of materials and added a lot of information in the "Ecological Report", such as the breeding methods and food habits of the poisonous bird, the strong winds brought by the steel dragon, etc.
"Oh? Has the [mission] been triggered?" Su Yi flipped it open and saw that due to the sudden rainstorm, he did not notice the three tasks that appeared, namely, defeating the Brutejaw, capturing the Velociraptor, and expelling the Steelix.
Su Yi shed weak tears, none of which he could accomplish at this stage, the tasks of the Mangnathic Dragon and the Velociraptor, at least after working hard to subdue some monsters, are still possible, but it is far away to be able to compete against the Steel Dragon Indefinitely.
What Su Yi noticed was that there were new items in the mission rewards, namely the Superior Sphere and the Life Dragon Vein Fragment. Since they only appeared in the rewards, Su Yi had no way to check the specific instructions.
But the upper-level ball sounds like it is a ball that is one level higher than the capture ball. I wonder if there is an M-level ball, a battle ball, or something like that behind it. The life dragon vein fragment makes Su Yi a little confused. He knows about the dragon vein stone, but could this life dragon vein fragment be related to the monster?
Although he really wanted to find out, these tasks were not something he could complete right now, and if he failed to find any trace of the target within three days, it would be considered as automatically abandoning the mission.
It is impossible for Su Yi to spend a lot of time and energy and risk his life to track down these three monsters when he has a clear capture plan, so these three tasks can only gather dust in the [Tasks] until they are automatically abandoned.
"Eat your food one bite at a time." Su Yi said, releasing the Jigglypuff Egg and the Burning Bug.
While holding the burning bug in his arms to keep it warm, and asking Jigglypuff and Dew Grass to help, Su Yi took out the materials he had collected before, and began to mix the necessary props one by one.
I do not know how long it has been.
Call ~
The sound of the wind gradually died down.
Su Yi, who was immersed in harmony, raised his head. The gray sky began to recover, and the sunset color shone through the clouds. He immediately opened the "Hunting Guide". The storm area had long been removed, and he could now return to the Pokémon world.
"Finally I can leave. Let's go back first. This accident has disrupted all my previous plans, and some supplies need to be replenished." Su Yi put all the props on the table into the [Items] column, put the companion beasts and Pokémon back into the ball, and chose to return to the Pokémon world.
Thank you all for your support and concern. I don’t have a high fever now, but I’m still a little tired. My cough and runny nose are quite severe. Those few days were really hard. I felt dizzy and had all kinds of crazy thoughts.

Chapter 25 Su Yi: What is this? Caidou's invitation to fight
With the feeling of instant teleportation that had gradually become familiar to him, Su Yi once again descended into the Pokémon world, Kai Island, and focused on the forest.
But, just like the New World gave Su Yi Steel Dragon this "surprise", the Pokémon world was not willing to lag behind. Before Su Yi could stand firmly, a clear sound suddenly rang out.
"who!?"
Before Su Yi could react, a kick whip came at him with gusts of strong wind.
"What!?" Su Yi only had time to cross his arms to cover his chest.
Bang!
There was a loud muffled sound, and at that moment, Su Yi seemed to see the Five Dragons of Creation looking at him.
“Puga!”
Su Yi didn't have time to stop in time, and was thrown far away by Dio, who was caught in the escape route by Star Platinum Ora.
Bang!
"cough!"
Su Yi's body fell to the ground, causing him secondary injuries.
Boom!
The capture ball on Su Yi's waist suddenly opened, and Lu Cao rushed over anxiously, shouting in panic: "Su Yi meow! What's wrong with you meow?! Don't scare me meow!"
"Is it a human?!" the instigator said in panic.
"Meow!" The cat turned around in anger, holding the bone dagger, and shouted: "Who are you, meow? Are you also a Pokémon, meow?"
"A talking Pokémon?"
"Cough cough cough, Lulu grass, I'm still alive. Come on, give me some medicine." Su Yi stretched out his hand tremblingly.
"Su Yi! Here I come, meow!" Maomao immediately handed over the medicine bottle from Su Yi's waist.
Su Yi took the medicine bottle with trembling arms, tilted his head back and gulped down two mouthfuls, before he regained his breath.
"Are you okay, meow?" Lucao asked worriedly.
"It's okay." Su Yi shook his head and looked at the girl in front of him.
Wearing a headband, a light and close-fitting fighting suit, hand and knee pads, and barefoot, with the family of Arm Strength, Gore and Super Strength following behind her, there is no doubt that it is the Galar genius fighting girl, Ayado, whom she met once that day.
In the past, everyone joked that Caidou was a humanoid monster, but now, Su Yi has the opportunity to experience its power firsthand.
"Is it you?" Caidou also recognized this person whom she had met once at the post station.
"I'm so sorry! I thought a Pokémon was going to attack me, and I was in a tense state just now, so I acted reflexively." Caidou said apologetically, walked over, and reached out to pull Su Yi up.
"What is this...?" Su Yi was pulled to stand up, his arms still aching.
"By the way, why did you suddenly appear behind me?" Caidou came back to her senses and asked in confusion.
Su Yi coughed and said in a disguising manner: "Uh, well, I asked the Pokémon to use the teleportation move to come here, and I didn't know there was anyone here."
"Teleport? I see. I was reckless. I apologize again." As she said this, Caidou and the three Pokémon behind her bowed slightly to apologize.
"Both parties have responsibilities. There's no need to be so serious." Su Yi waved his hand.
"But actually you are the one who is injured." Caidou said embarrassedly.
"Well, where is your camp? I'll carry you back!" Caidou said seriously.
Su Yi twitched the corner of his mouth. If people knew that he was almost kicked by a young girl to meet the Five Dragons of Creation, and was finally carried back by the girl, his career as a hunter would be over (sad).
"No, no, no! I also have reliable partners." After saying that, Su Yi immediately called out the scratching bird.
"Huh?" As soon as the bird appeared, it looked at Su Yi in confusion. Su Yi, who was full of energy before, was now riding on its back in pain with cold sweat on his forehead.
"Another Pokémon I've never seen before?" Caidou asked curiously.
"At least let me escort you back. I also have ointment here." Caidou said hurriedly.
"There's really no need for that. Scratch the bird and go back the same way!" Su Yi said as he pinched the bird's belly.
