"Great! It's you, Su Yi." Seeing Su Yi, the captain of the investigation team finally felt relieved.
There is no doubt that Su Yi and his monster team immediately gave him a sense of security.
"Did you encounter a black-horned dragon when hearing that roar just now?" the captain asked solemnly.
Su Yi nodded and said in a deep voice: "Not only that, the Nergigante has also appeared."
"It really showed up, and it's very close to us," the captain said with a frown.
More importantly, they were blocking the fastest route back to the base.
"We can only go around this area." Su Yi said.
"But my two teammates," the captain said with a serious look, "are in urgent need of medical treatment and should not be subjected to further bumps."
"I have a way." Su Yi looked at the Steel Crow on guard outside the cave.
Su Yi took out some bones, vines and cloth, and worked in perfect harmony with Lu Cao and the cat to make three simple stretchers.
"Three people is almost the limit of what the Steel Crow can carry, so the speed will be affected. We are afraid of being attacked by flying monsters."
As Su Yi spoke, he took off the heavy and tattered armor of the hunters and lifted them onto a stretcher. At that moment, the hideous injuries on their bodies made Su Yi shudder with fear.
"Let Steelix carry them. At least my life is not in danger." said the captain.
Su Yi nodded and said, "Then you and I can ride on the companion beast together, so that the Steel Armored Crow can be more flexible."
"Ga!" The Steel Crow cried out and flew low over the sky, grabbing two stretchers with wounded soldiers on them.
"Crocodile, I'll leave it to you from now on!" Su Yi patted the Crazy Claw and said.
"Ah!" The Carcharodontosaurus growled in response, enduring the uncomfortable sunlight.
The Steel Crow flew at a low altitude, easily flying over the undulating and rugged wasteland, while Su Yi and his party followed below on their Claw Dragons, crossing the hills.
Of course Su Yi was worried about letting Steel Crow carry the wounded back.
At least the Steel Crow must be escorted around the rocky hills and over the shallow swamp before Su Yi can let the Steel Crow fly back to the base with peace of mind.
Steel Crow flew steadily at a medium speed while keeping a vigilant eye on the sky.
Below, under Su Yi's command, the Carcharodontosaurus ran and jumped on the undulating rock formations with its flexible and agile skills.
"Although the sun is shining brightly, the solemn atmosphere is really depressing," Su Yi said in a low voice.
Although the living environment in the Big Anthill Wasteland is harsh, many creatures have adapted to this land and survive tenaciously.
The Ankylosaurs in groups, the polygamous Crown Dragons, the Hate Birds that crave corpses, the Anthill Lizards crawling in the shade of the rocks, the Mist Girls hanging in the caves weaving webs, and the Pteranodons resting on the rock pillars.
These creatures that could be seen in the Great Anthill Wasteland in the past have now disappeared due to the arrival of the Nergigante.
There was no sound of fighting coming from afar, and I wonder how the battle between the Battle-Experienced Blackhorn Dragon and the Nergigante is going.
For a while, the Big Anthill Wasteland was somewhat quiet.
When the steel dragon descended on the ancient tree forest, violent winds and rainstorms came in an instant. All that was visible was rain like layers of curtains, and all that was heard were the whistling sounds of wind and rain. Su Yi and Lu Cao were like a lone boat in the ocean, struggling to escape in the waves.
When the Corpse Hazak appeared in the Miasma Valley, the miasma spread and the atmosphere became weird. Creatures infected by the miasma wandered in the fog like zombies. The Corpse Hazak was like the ruler of the underworld. It only needed to emit miasma and then wait for the living to die, which made Su Yi and Lu Cao extremely depressed.
Although Nergigante has no ability to change the weather and environment, it exudes an invisible murderous aura that makes all living things stay away. Now, this rocky hill has turned into a real wasteland within Nergigante's territory.
"Captain, tell me about the information you have obtained." Su Yi asked, breaking the depressing atmosphere.
"Yes." The captain sitting behind him nodded and said, "As you know, our initial mission was to investigate the abnormal activities of large monsters in the Great Ant Mound Wasteland."
"At first, we found that the monsters became alert and restless, as if they were avoiding something."
"Then, we found traces of the Nergigante, but these traces were left not long ago, which does not match the time when the monsters' abnormal activities began."
"Because investigating the ancient dragon is a higher priority, we will turn to investigating the traces of the Nergigante."
"Until we met that black demon, the Black Horned Dragon!" The captain's expression became heavy when he said this.
"Those of you who have encountered it should know that the black-horned dragon is somewhat abnormal. Of course, it's not just about its appearance, but also its behavior."
Su Yi's expression changed, and he asked, "Abnormal behavior?"
“After we encountered the black-horned dragon, it immediately attacked us in a rage.”
"We were surprised to find that it was too powerful. We were seriously injured after just one fight." As the captain said this, the injury on his foot began to ache.
According to what the captain said, apparently at this time, the members of the investigation team have not yet formally identified and defined the combat-hardened individuals.
"After finally getting rid of its pursuit, we plan to wait for the Black Horned Dragon to leave before investigating this area."
"But we found that it kept wandering around this area of rocky hills."
"The rocky hills connect the wetland oasis, shallow swamps and desert areas. They are also the lairs of many monsters. They are the center of this large area, and many monsters come here."
"But because this extremely powerful black-horned dragon lingers here and it indiscriminately attacks any creature that appears before it, many monsters have been driven away."
"We realized that this might be the reason why the monsters were acting strangely."
"But what really puzzles me is, if it's pregnant, why doesn't it return to its nest to give birth, but keeps wandering here and attacking all living things?"
"Any monster needs to rest. It's like a wandering ghost, wandering here for at least a few weeks. What is its purpose?"
The captain of the investigation team was extremely confused. Although he found the reason for the abnormal activities of the monsters, another problem popped up.
"The black-horned dragon that keeps wandering here," Su Yi murmured in thought.
Generally speaking, black horned dragons should prefer to build nests in the sand. This rocky hill should be just a foraging ground for horned dragons to eat cactus. Their nests should be in the desert to the east.
After eating here, this black-horned dragon should return to its nest in the desert and wait for giving birth.
No matter how strong a ceratopsian's sense of territory is, it should rest after patrolling its territory.
"After investigating this, we were about to report back to the base when we were attacked by the Black Horned Dragon again."
"We were unable to move and were seriously injured, so we hid in the cave, but we were trapped by the black-horned dragon lingering there."
Then came Su Yi's arrival.
Su Yi integrated this information in his mind and analyzed the current situation in the Big Anthill Wasteland.
That battle-hardened black-horned dragon was wandering around the rocky hills for unknown reasons, which led to the abnormal activity of monsters in the Great Anthill Wasteland a few weeks ago.
A few days ago, Nergigante visited here. About half an hour ago, it fought with the Blackhorn Dragon. The specific situation is unclear now.
Snap, snap.
The sharp claws of the Deinonychus stepped over the rock layer and it landed with a jump. The surrounding plants increased in number and not far away, clusters of purple plants could be seen in the shallow swamp.
"Finally got out of there," Su Yi murmured.
Although we are almost leaving the rocky hills and some creatures are beginning to appear around us, and it seems that we are far away from the influence range of the Nergigante, but we still don't be careless.
rustling.
The Deinonychus gripped the sandy ground with its sharp claws as it ran forward, raising handfuls of gravel.
Rustling
"Meow?!" Lucao's ears moved and she called out, "Su Yi, there's movement, meow!"
"Huh?!" Su Yi's eyes focused, and the rumbling sound gradually became clearer.
Not far away, the yellowish ground suddenly bulged up, the gravel was shaken away, and the raised earth dragon rumbled towards this side.
"The Tragic Claw Dragon!" Su Yi shouted.
"Roar!" The strong muscles of the Deinonychus bulged, and it leaped high with strength.
Bang!
A dark figure broke out of the ground, and flying debris splashed in all directions like flowers scattered by a fairy.
Boom!
Su Yi swung his shield to knock a piece of gravel away, and looked at the wounded monster with surprise.
"He actually escaped from the claws of the Nergigante?"
The battle-hardened black-horned dragon turned its head and looked at Su Yi with its scarlet eyes. Black smoke came out of its mouth with every breath, and a faint red light emanated from the dense blood vessels in its eyes and forelimbs.
At the same time, Su Yi noticed that the dark shell was covered with bite and cut scars, and a piece of the bone plate on the head used to protect the neck was missing.
"Did he escape the attack of the Nergigante by burrowing underground?" This is the only possibility Su Yi can think of at the moment.
"But why do you want to attack with such a wounded body? Why don't you feel tired and ignore your injuries?" Su Yi frowned.
In response to Su Yi, the black-horned dragon pointed its sharp horn at himself.
The Deinonychus jumped away nimbly again. The Blackhorn Dragon, which had missed its attack, used its forelimbs and sharp horns to dig up the sand and then drilled into the ground with a rumbling sound.
Su Yi launched a sonic boom bomb, a high-frequency noise sounded, and with a bang, half of the body of the black-horned dragon lurking underground broke out of the ground, shaking its head dizzily.
Su Yi released the scratching bird and said, "Captain, let the scratching bird take you away from here first. It seems that if we don't deal with it, the Great Ant Mound Wasteland will not be at peace."
The captain who was helped by Su Yi to the bird scratching place said solemnly: "I understand, you have to be careful!"
Su Yi nodded and shouted to the sky: "Steel Armor Crow, speed up and send them back to the base!"
"Gaa!" The Steel Crow cried out, climbed higher, and flapped its wings to speed up.
The bird chirped to Su Yi, then started running quickly towards the shallow swamp.
"Next, it's you and me, Mrs. Blackhorn." Su Yi opened the capture ball and released the Swift Cat and the Barbarian Jaw.
The black-horned dragon not far away shook its head, crawled out of the ground, looked at the two monsters that suddenly appeared in front of it, and let out a thunderous roar without fear.

Chapter 185 Three Dragons vs. Tyrant
The black-horned dragon's fierce roar shook the air, raised dust, and an invisible murderous intent spread.
It gripped the ground with its wing claws, dug its hind legs, and aimed a pair of large, alien horns at Su Yi and his companions.
"Never face its impact head-on!" Su Yi reminded.
Bang!
The black-horned dragon crushed the ground and charged forward with a terrifying momentum. Even without Su Yi's reminder, the accompanying beasts would not choose to fight head-on when they saw this unstoppable attack.
Both the Swiftcat and the Carcharodontosaurus were agile accompanying beasts. They quickly dodged when the Blackhorn Dragon rushed towards them, while the Barbarian Jaw Dragon stretched out its long legs and dodged the Blackhorn Dragon.
