"During the investigation, many hunters were attacked by violent monsters, and this time, hunters and scholars went missing."
"Although I sent out hunters to search, some of them were injured in the previous investigation. In addition, the Ancient Tree Forest also needs manpower, and the base also needs hunters, so not many hunters can be sent out."
"And for me, the most important thing after this is that my grandson is one of the missing." The commander-in-chief's face became much more gloomy.
"So, I am not issuing this mission to you as the commander-in-chief, but as a grandfather."
"And, strictly speaking, this isn't a formal mission, but a request."
"I am the commander-in-chief of this Star Base. I am responsible for the operation and safety of the entire base. Those scholars are more important to the investigation of the entire New World."
"So I can't be selfish and ask all the hunters to help me search for my grandson."
"That's why I'm asking you for help. Your monster companions are a powerful force." The commander-in-chief had a pleading look on his resolute face.
Su Yi's face became serious and he was about to say something when the commander-in-chief interrupted him.
He said solemnly: "You are not in a hurry to accept this mission. Listen to the intelligence we currently have before making a decision."
"Thanks to the intercom you gave us, we were able to exchange information with each other at a certain distance. Before the intercom lost contact, they reported that they had found some thorns."
Su Yi instantly said with a serious expression: "Exterminate the Dragon!"
"That's right, which means that this time, you might encounter an ancient dragon." The commander-in-chief said seriously.
"The decision is yours. I won't force you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the "Hunting Guide" on Su Yi's waist buzzed, and Su Yi knew that the mission was issued.
He touched the "Hunting Guide", but he didn't look at the specific tasks or rewards. He didn't want to be driven by the tasks.
However, this time, it had nothing to do with the mission, and he didn't want to give up so hastily. Once he lost his courage, after giving up once, he would give up countless times.
He will have to face Gu Long sooner or later, and this time he is not asked to defeat Gu Long.
"I'll do my best." Su Yi nodded.
"Then go and make preparations. I'll ask the receptionist to give you intelligence and supplies. Be careful." The commander-in-chief said in a deep voice.
"give it to me."
Su Yi and Lu Cao immediately took action. The situation was urgent and a lot of preparations needed to be made.
Su Yi first found the Thunder Wolf Dragon sleeping near the back mountain, and then threw a few energy blocks in front of it.
"Roar?!" The Thunder Wolf Dragon was awakened and looked at Su Yi in surprise.
"I'm going on a long journey. These energy blocks can save your life at critical moments. Remember to bring them with you." Not wanting to explain too much, Su Yi turned around and left.
The Thunder Wolf Dragon looked at the several energy blocks on the ground with a confused look on its face. It wanted to throw them away directly, but after thinking about it, it gathered them in its arms.
"I'll leave this little guy in your care for the time being. It's not convenient to take care of it this time." Su Yi handed the little poisonous bird to the receptionist for care.
Because there would be no chance for it to appear in this mission, and he was afraid that the little poisonous bird would be too bored, he decided to put it in the shed in the back mountain and let the receptionist take care of it.
"I understand." After handing Su Yi the information and supplies, the receptionist teased the little poisonous bird.
Su Yi entered the cave. The Carcharodontosaurus smelled the scent and immediately came to Su Yi.
"How's your injury, Dragon Claw?"
"Roar!" The Deinonychus roared, and stepped forward with its hind legs. The plaster wrapped around its hind legs shattered, and its injuries were no longer serious.
"Okay, let's go on another adventure."
"Howl, oh, oh!"
Su Yi took inventory of the companions he brought with him. Except for the mascot Little Poison Bird placed in the shed and the Du Jianshao who was researching a treatment method, all the other members were present.
Inside the shed, Su Yi counted the supplies, as well as the supplies brought back by the receptionist: "Finally, let's go to the Kaidao Station to buy some medicine and food."
Lucao rummaged through her suitcase and stuffed the things she needed into her bag one by one: "Take this thing with you too, meow."
The matter was urgent and concerned human lives. After Su Yi returned to Kaidao, he told Master Ma about the emergency and immediately went to Kaidao Station to buy some things.
Because I wanted to be fully prepared, I bought some extra things that seemed useful, and spent most of my money.
"Finally, the last mission is to capture the materials given by Thunder Wolf Dragon." Su Yi came to the workshop.
"I heard you have an urgent mission, so I won't waste any more words. This was made according to the blueprints from the original continent." The leader of the second group took out a one-handed sword.
"King's Sword, Thunderbolt." Su Yi took it, tried it, and murmured, "If I want to face the Nergigante, I have to rely on it."
Weapons and Mountain Cat Pavilion, Su Yi and Lu Cao devoured the food in front of them and finished it in no time.
"Su Yi, have a safe trip." The receptionist said solemnly.
Su Yi released the Steel Armor Crow and said, "Thank you for your good words. Here I come, Great Ant Mound Wasteland!"
The communication range of the walkie-talkie that Su Yi installed in the command room is far from enough for the entire Big Anthill Wasteland.
Also, due to the harsh environment of swamps and deserts, the walkie-talkies, which are not high-end products, have their functions greatly limited.
Therefore, the only information Su Yi had was the whereabouts of the commander-in-chief's grandson, the captain of the investigation team, long ago.
Steel Crow flew out of the base, passed the pass, and entered the Great Ant Mound Wasteland.
In an instant, yellow sand flew up, and a barren land appeared before our eyes. It was hard to imagine that adjacent to it was a lush and vibrant ancient tree forest.
Although this land looks extremely desolate, the creatures living in it will tell you the vitality of this big anthill wasteland through their fierce competition.
At present, Su Yi’s destination is not the distant wasteland.
Commanding the Steelix to fly north, a wetland connected the wasteland and the forest.
Su Yi dismounted the Steel Armored Crow and asked it to be on guard on the ground and in the air. Su Yi rode on the Scratching Bird and entered the forest wetland with Lu Cao.
"This is the first location. I hope to find traces of the captain so that the guide insect can track him." Su Yi carefully observed his surroundings as he moved forward.
In this wetland before our eyes, countless trees rise from the water and mudflats. Due to the hot desert in the distance, the climate here is hot and humid.
Su Yi, who was wrapped tightly in the Barbarian Jaw Dragon Suit, couldn't help but sweat all over.
"It's so painful." Su Yi opened the mask of his helmet and breathed in.
The trees in the wetland are very lush, and the sunlight from the sky is mostly blocked, so the wetland appears a bit dark.
The tickling bird stepped on the puddles and moved forward carefully.
Several broken trees appeared in front of him, attracting Su Yi's attention.
"Something has been discovered."

Chapter 180 The Queen's Welcoming Guests
The dense forest wetlands are excellent drinking water places for many monsters.
Many monsters come here to drink water, so fighting among monsters is inevitable here.
Therefore, you can often see trees here breaking and falling down due to the fighting between monsters.
These broken trees, either half-submerged in water or exposed to humid air, will quickly breed fungi and mosses.
The broken tree in front of Su Yi had very new wood at the broken end, and it must have been broken a day ago at most.
"If we can find more detailed traces, we may be able to determine what kind of monster it is and be prepared."
Su Yi thought about it and released Jigglypuff and his bear apprentice.
"Everyone, look around for other traces."
"lucky~"
"Bah!"
Then Su Yi and his companions scattered around the puddle and searched for traces.
"Oh? This Recovery Dew Grass." Su Yi lowered his head and looked at a Recovery Dew Grass next to the puddle. There were obvious cut marks on its flowers.
"It should have been cut by a knife. It was a hunter. Someone must have been injured, but I don't know if it was serious."
"Su Yi meow! I found the hunter's props meow!" On the other side, Lu Cao took out a small knife used for a catapult from the water.
"Flying Knife, did they fight?"
"Bei Lu!" Soon, Apprentice Xiong also made a discovery.
Su Yi and Lu Cao walked over and found signs of burning on several fallen dead trees.
"Monsters that use fire, let me think, female fire dragon, cherry fire dragon, brute jaw dragon, dragon slasher."
"Emm, there is also an explosive dragon."
Because the area was too wet and muddy, many traces had either disappeared or were difficult to discern in specific shape.
"Lucky!" On the other side, Jigglypuff shouted.
Su Yi walked over and found that it was a bush, and in the middle of the bush, there was a road broken by broken branches.
“Is it man-made?”
"Go and take a look." Su Yi crouched down and squeezed into the bushes.
The scene in front of me opened up, the ground was no longer wet, but began to show yellowish cracks, and the landform began to change into wasteland.
"Lucky!" Jigglypuff pointed to a place not far away.
Su Yi looked over and his pupils shrank.
"Thorns!" Su Yi walked over quickly and checked the thorns.
"There are obvious fractures on the thorns, and many of them are broken into several sections."
"It is highly likely that these are not the thorns that Nergigante shed on their own, but the thorns that were broken off and scattered after the attack. Nergigante was fighting something."
Su Yi closed his eyes, there were traces of fire, traces of hunters, and traces of the Nergigante.
Just looking at these traces, it is difficult to guess who fought with whom.
What's worse is that the throwing knife has lost the hunter's scent because it has been soaked in water for a long time, so it cannot be tracked by the guide insect.
"This is a warning to me right from the start." Su Yi murmured.
The appearance of traces of Nergigante means that he and Nergigante may be separated by the ends of the earth, or they may meet at the next corner.
