Glenn quickly put all the parts of the Black Weaver into a large foldable storage bag in her backpack. She carried it on her back and it looked even bigger than her slender body.
Dean saw that everyone was ready to leave. He hesitated but said: "There seems to be something there." He pointed to the ground that was exuding the smell. Although he had some guesses in his heart, but considering his own ability, he decided to bring it up.
"Oh?" Glenn looked over in surprise and said, "There's a smell?"
"It's in the soil," Dean said.
After the previous accurate tracking, everyone had full trust in Dean's ability to smell. They looked at each other and cautiously approached with weapons in hand. Glenn winked at the knight. The latter understood and stepped forward. He picked up the soil that Dean was pointing at.
After digging out a pit of about 30 centimeters, everyone immediately saw an oval snow-white object in the sand. Glenn and the others' eyes suddenly lit up. They were pleasantly surprised, "Black Weaver's egg!"
They quickly moved forward and dug the sand. They found that there were as many as eight black weaver eggs buried inside.
Dean was happy and regretful that his guess was right. Unfortunately, his strength was too weak. Otherwise, he would have been able to sneak back to get the eggs. However, the area no. 1 was too dangerous. Even an intermediate hunter didn't dare to go alone. Although he had a super sense of smell that could detect monsters in advance, but there were some lurking monster hunters who knew how to hide their smell. They would often quietly approach their prey. Such monsters were not uncommon in area no. 1!
The so-called people die for wealth and birds die for food. He thought about it again and again. In the end, he didn't want to take the risk. After all, God didn't care about him every time.
Glenn looked at the eight black weaver eggs in her hand. She was pleasantly surprised: "I got so many at once. Maybe one of them will survive. Then I will absorb the black weaver's magic marks. My ability will be even stronger!"
The knight and others immediately congratulated him.
Dean suddenly noticed that the hunter was smiling and congratulating him. But his expression was a bit stiff. Because of the height difference between them, it was easy for him to see the other's palm. He saw that the other's palm was clenched tightly. His thumb was slightly rubbing. It seemed that he was trying to endure something. Dean couldn't help but be startled. The next moment he woke up and couldn't help but smile.
"Previously, when the Black Weaver was lying on the ground, I thought it was to deal with us. I didn't expect that it was actually taking the opportunity to hide its eggs." Glenn recalled the previous battle and sighed. She thought of something and looked at Dean: "Fortunately, you observed carefully. Otherwise you would have missed the eight eggs."
Dean smiled but didn't say anything. He felt helpless in his heart. Although it was unintentional, but he seemed to have offended the young hunter. The latter had ultrasonic hearing ability, so he should have heard the sound of Black Weaver burying the eggs. Moreover, he proposed to go to the sixth area to hunt. It was obviously an excuse. Clearly, he wanted to wait for everyone to leave, and then sneak back to get the eggs.
However, his plan had been inadvertently ruined by himself. Moreover, his thoughts had been exposed in front of Glenn, the young knight, and the others. After all, no one was stupid. They just didn't show it at this moment.
"He probably hates me …" Dean looked up at the young hunter, but saw that there was a smile on his face. It seemed that the young hunter didn't notice him. If it was an ordinary person, most of them would think that he was thinking too much. But Dean still felt that he couldn't let go of his guard. He secretly remembered the appearance of the young hunter. If he met him outside the giant wall in the future, it would be better to stay away from him as far as possible. Otherwise, if he was secretly retaliated, then he would fall into a situation of eternal damnation.
"It is entirely Dean's credit that we were able to find these eight eggs by accident." Glenn looked at Dean and thought for a moment: "According to the price handed over to the consortium, each rare monster's egg will be worth 1000 gold coins. Ordinary monster's egg will be worth 500 gold coins. As for the mammal's egg, it's another matter. The survival rate is relatively high, and the value is sky high."
"I will distribute the eggs according to the price given by the consortium. In view of Dean's credit, four of the eight eggs will belong to Dean. That is 4000 gold coins. The rest will be 1000 gold coins for each of you. As for the eggs, I will give them to the consortium to help me cultivate them."
Hearing Glenn's distribution, the young knight and others didn't have any objection.
Dean was surprised to see that Glenn had allocated so much to him. He thought that it would be good if he could drink the soup. He didn't expect to get half of it. His impression of her improved a lot.
"This time I have to thank Dean's nose." The young knight smiled.
Gatt also smiled and patted Dean's shoulder: "Good job."
Dean smiled and said a few polite words to them.
After Glenn had collected the eight eggs, everyone retreated along the original path.
Along the way, Dean's sense of smell and young hunter's hearing allowed them to encounter several monster ambushes not far from where they were passing. They would suddenly jump out and attack them, almost causing casualties. Fortunately, Glenn reacted quickly and took the initiative to resist.
Through the fight, Dean gradually had an understanding of Glenn's strength. She could easily deal with monsters below level 20, but it would be a lot more difficult for her to deal with monsters above level 20. Moreover, the higher the level, the more difficult it would be. If she encountered a monster like the Black Weaver who was level 26, her life would be in danger if she encountered it alone.
After all, if Dean didn't help her to detect the Black Weaver's sneak attack, Glenn may not be able to detect it in time.
Under the escort of Glenn, everyone gradually withdrew from area no. 1. They came to the giant forest next to the abandoned highway. Glenn let the young knight, Gatt and others go back first. She continued to escort Dean to the cleaned area, which was the area no. 7.
The last time Dean was scavenging, the area no. 7 was still in the process of cleaning. Now the cleaning was coming to an end. Even if there were occasional monsters left, a primary hunter's strength was enough to escape. Unless they were unlucky enough to encounter the strongest monsters in the area no. 7.
After sending Dean to area no. 7, Glenn said a few words and then turned to leave.
Dean had asked her about the route of each area. Moreover, he had seen Scott's map before. He still had some impression of the area no. 7 was not far from the area no. 9. Moreover, he was fully armed so he could hunt in the area no.
Dean saw a lot of undead swaying on the road. He had heard from Glenn and others that these undead were the last monsters to be cleaned. Unless they encountered them, they would kill them. Generally, they wouldn't take the initiative to look for them.
In the first cleaning of each area, they would hunt the monsters that were given a name. They were the most terrible monsters in the area.
Monsters that could reach the level of being given a name were far more powerful than ordinary monsters.
If they were the first to hunt the undead on a large scale, it would alert the monsters. Some of the monsters would escape to other areas, especially to the areas of other consortia. It was tantamount to becoming the property of other consortia.
