Even in Lan Xing’s view, the relationship between Erina and Eve is even better than her own.
As for Hestia?
“woooooooo~~”
Erina, whose face was buried in Hestia’s chest, struggled continuously at first, and even her survival instinct made her temporarily give up her arrogance and ask for help from Lan Xing, but Lan Xing didn’t seem to see it at all, and finally Erina The arms raised high hang down to the sides of the body.
That’s right, Hestia likes Erina very much, because not only is she very cute, but also Erina was able to help her translate when she was learning cooking at the “Meat Ball House”.
The language of the Elu cats is not the same as that of normal people. Lan Xing can roughly understand their words because he has been with the Elu cats for a long time, but whether it is Erina or Hestia, it is obvious They didn’t understand, so at this time, Erina analyzed the cooking of the ‘Chef Tiger’ based on observation and analysis of God’s Tongue, and then handed it over to Hestia.
It’s just that Erina doesn’t seem to appreciate Hestia’s enthusiasm. After all, Hestia’s hug makes her feel like she has come to a strange river. I don’t even know if it’s because of Hestia. It seems that the ferryman on that river also has a broad ‘heart’ similar to the other person.
Although Blue Star didn’t fully understand the strange way of communication between Erina and Hestia, he could at least tell that Erina didn’t really hate Hestia.
Maybe Hestia’s embrace did make her very helpless, but for her who lacked warmth since she was a child, Hestia’s undisguised kindness still made her reluctant to part with her, but because of her strong personality, she didn’t want to accept it. Open your mouth directly, and finally this somewhat awkward way of communicating appears.
In the end, I don’t know if it was because Hestia had hugged enough, or because Erina had “charged” for a long enough time, Erina finally broke free with both hands supporting Hestia’s chest.
The originally capable single ponytail became a bit messy because of Hestia’s movements, and even the whole small face turned red because of lack of oxygen, but in the end she didn’t know what it was ‘vicious’ Still looking enviously at Hestia’s chest, he hid behind Lan Xing.
Although she likes to grind her teeth at Lan Xing, it is obvious that she still trusts Lan Xing very much.
On the other hand, following Tiaya and leading Eve to the office on the first floor, Blue Star finally figured out why Erina appeared in his office.
It’s very simple, because originally Hestia and Erina made an appointment to go to the ‘Meatball Stadium’ to learn art together today.
After all, according to Blue Star and Hestia’s plan, after completing the ‘monster sacrifice’ yesterday, Blue Star will continue to improve their strength, and Hestia and the others will have free time, so Hestia will prepare Directly asked Erina to practice cooking together.
But no one thought that the reward for Blue Star’s “Monster Festival” would be the title deed of a store in the Labyrinth City, and at the same time, Blue Star’s “ability” at LV2 would need to be tested.
Last night, Hestia was so excited that she even forgot the agreement she had made with Erina, and she only remembered it when she saw her.
When she heard that Lan Xing was going to ‘hunt’, Erina suddenly showed a curious expression.
During this period, Erina went to the “Meat Ball House” more than once to learn cooking skills. The “Tiger Chef” taught almost everyone who was willing to learn cooking skills, but most of the ordinary people were trained by the “Meat Ball House”. ‘The other chefs in the restaurant are in charge, and only those who are really talented, or ‘relationship households’ like Blue Star, will take the initiative.
There is no doubt that Erina won Tiger’s approval by relying on her talent.
Since she was studying in the ‘Meatball Hall’, it was impossible for Erina to ignore the customers in the store, especially when she saw a fire dragon brought back by a large cart on the side of the road, her heart was full of shock.
Now that Lan Xing plans to go to the ‘Hunter’s Guild’ to pick up the mission, Erina can’t help but yearn for it.
But it’s a pity that her arrogant personality made it impossible for her to speak on her own initiative.
And Lan Xing couldn’t help but want to laugh when he saw the other party’s expression of longing, but holding the hem of his clothes hesitantly.
“Erina, do you want to come with us later? That way we don’t need to prepare lunch.”
Faced with Blue Star’s invitation, Erina almost couldn’t wait to agree, but then she seemed to suddenly remember her “character design” and quickly raised her little head with her hands folded.
“Since you invited me, Lan Xing, then I will reluctantly go with you…”
Although the other party tried hard to look reluctant, it was a pity that the smile on the corner of her mouth had completely betrayed her inner thoughts.
Seeing Erina’s cute expression, Lan Xing and Tiayu couldn’t help but look at each other and smiled, while Hestia even more simply shouted “so cute” and held each other in her arms again.
In the end, when Erina broke away from Hestia’s “killing sister in her arms” again, everyone left the office together.
Ti Yayou changed out of her usual skirt and small suit for sportswear, but she didn’t know if she put on her white coat because she always felt something was missing, so she nodded in satisfaction.
As for Hestia, she wore a half-length vest over the white dress, but I don’t know whether it was because of the design, or because the other person’s figure is too exaggerated, the vest only buttoned the bottom button Pull up the opponent’s chest.
Seeing Hestia and Tiayu talking and laughing, for some reason, Erina seemed to feel a strong malice.
Feeling melancholy, she couldn’t help hugging Eve, as if only Eve could bring her warmth in this cold world…
Chapter 54 Hunter’s Guild
A stone wall covered with various scars was covered with moss, and on the wooden plaque was written the four characters ‘Hunter’s Guild’ in local characters.
If it weren’t for the huge area and the staff and hunters constantly shuttling in the guild, no one would have thought that this building was the “core” of the city just by looking at the unpretentious decoration.
That’s right, although this city named ‘East Doruma’ also has a normal administrative organization, but the real core is the Hunter’s Guild in front of you.
The reason for this strange situation stems from the city’s special geographical location.
East Doruma is a special city built on the plains. It is located in the middle node of multiple ecological regions. Hunters will not have a long journey time from East Doruma to any area of the mainland.
And it is precisely because of this special location that a large number of monsters live in this area. Even according to the information that Blue Star has read, some groups of monsters migrate through this area.
Before the establishment of ‘East Doruma’, the area of activity of the caravan was very limited. Except for very few powerful people who were able to move across regions, most of them lived near their hometowns almost all their lives.
It can be said that the entire continent was forcibly divided into several regions due to the migration of monsters.
The first guild leader of the hunter guild led the first generation of hunters to build the original ‘fortress’ at the center of the monster migration area.
That’s right, this simple-looking building full of years of scars in front of you was originally a castle to resist the attacks of monsters, and the first generation of hunters used their blood and courage to nail it down on this dangerous land. The original nails, and then generations of hunters continued to expand the living area, and finally it took hundreds of years to have the present-day ‘East Doruma’.
It itself belongs to the ‘hunter’, so even though it is located in the kingdom, it is still a rare neutral city, and it can even be said to be a country within a country.
As for the administrator sent by the kingdom?
It sounds very powerful, but in fact it is just doing odd jobs for the Hunter’s Guild. Only the guild leader knows everything about the city’s various defense equipment and countless secrets.
However, although the guild leader sounds very powerful, in fact, the guild leader does not have much sense of presence except for a morale booster when the monsters migrate every year.
The reason for this situation is that the current guild leader is a giant dragonman whose age is said to be close to a thousand years old. He is one of the first few generations of hunters. There are even rumors that the other party once fought an ancient dragon alone.
But no matter how powerful the hunter was, even the dragon people couldn’t completely ignore the invasion of the years. Under the baptism of time, the opponent had already entered old age, so naturally he rarely showed up.
Of course, Blue Star didn’t bring Hestia and the others to the guild to meet the guild leader. After all, he only saw each other once after he became a hunter, and ordinary people had no chance to see each other at all.
The purpose of his coming to the guild this time is the commission of the guild.
The Hunter’s Guild is a large organization, almost all human settlements have it, and its size varies depending on the size of the settlement.
In most cases, a “task issuer” sent by a guild is responsible for the operation, but Dongduoluma, as one of the largest hunter guilds on this continent, naturally cannot have only one staff member.
There are several ‘commission boards’ in the huge hall, with a large number of commissions posted on them, and these commissions are only roughly written with ‘task location’, ‘monsters that may be related to it’ and ‘reward’.
As for the specific situation of the entrustment, the hunter needs to consult according to the entrusted number.
The entrustment is also divided into several categories because of its difficulty and scope of work.
The most common one is the escort entrustment. The hunters of the Hunter Guild escort the client to the destination according to the entrustment. The entrustment money varies according to the strength of the monsters that may exist on the route.
Generally speaking, this type of mission is also the most common commission for newcomers, not only because this kind of mission does not necessarily involve combat, but also because this kind of mission requires more than one hunter to accept, and is usually assigned by a fixed hunter team. Some ordinary hunters, and newcomer hunters can gain some valuable experience from some old hunters after accepting the task.
That’s right, although there are no rules, hunters with stronger abilities will generally take the initiative to teach newcomers.
The reason for this situation is not only because they are basically taught by their seniors in the newcomer stage, they have grown up until now they have become seniors in the eyes of others, but also because of the special living environment of this world.
The millennium’s “Human-Dragon War” led to the destruction of ancient kings. The surviving humans, dragonmen and even Ailu cats were lingering under the threat of monsters. Even after thousands of years, the Hunter’s Guild was successfully established and the new kingdom was established. It seems that some strength has been restored, but the hunters all know that their living environment is not as peaceful as imagined.
They teach the newcomers not only for the newcomers, but also for themselves. Who can guarantee that the other party will save their lives in the next battle?
Under the threat of survival, everyone has to report to the group to keep warm, and the hunter is no exception.
In addition to a large number of escort missions, there are also hunting missions, capture missions, exploration missions, and collection missions.
The hunting task is the simplest and roughest. Some monsters have broken into the human living area. In order to protect people, the hunters will rush to the destination to destroy these prey.
Of course, in most cases, capture is capture, because living monsters are more valuable.
As for the capture tasks, living monsters are required for scientific research or other reasons, which are more difficult than simple hunting, so most capture tasks are taken by hunters with stronger strength at the same level.
Exploration missions are very rare. Generally speaking, if someone reports to the guild that there is a strange situation in a certain area, they will send hunters to investigate. Most of these missions do not limit the number of people who can accept them, but the rewards are usually only given to the first one. Report to the hunter.
Although sometimes it was a false alarm, traces of the activities of certain ancient dragons or other special monsters have been discovered more than once in history. Generally speaking, new tasks will continue to be issued based on the results of exploration tasks.
In addition to these types of tasks, there is also the largest number of various collection commissions.
This kind of entrustment needs to collect materials that are more precious or difficult to cultivate artificially. Except for the quests with a relatively short time limit, most hunters will pick up a few when accepting hunting, capturing or exploring quests.
Although the amount of completion is astonishing, because various caravans often use East Doruma as a transit point, there are still a large number of such tasks.
But it is obvious that these are not Blue Star’s goals, his goal is———emergency commission!
Chapter 55 Urgent Mission
Urgent missions are very special missions that do not belong to the normal classification of missions.
In theory, its tasks include almost all types of tasks, but they all have one characteristic, that is ’emergency’.
To give the simplest example, if the goal of an emergency mission is to hunt a certain monster, then basically the hunter who received the hunting mission before found an unexpected enemy and had to ask the guild for help, and then the guild issued the emergency mission.
Of course, since this type of task is an ‘urgent task’, it means that it has certain restrictions.
“I’d like to check out ‘Urgent Mission 7’.”
Blue Star, who had found his goal in the commission column in advance, chose not to line up, but chose to directly report his goal to the staff behind the counter.
In fact, when Lan Xing crossed the crowd and walked towards the counter, many people had already noticed Lan Xing, but these people paid attention to Lan Xing for different reasons.
Some people are simply displeased with Blue Star’s behavior of jumping in line. Obviously, these people are newcomers like Blue Star, and they don’t know much about some unspoken rules of the Hunter’s Guild;
Some people are holding the mentality of watching the show. Obviously, because Lan Xing looks younger, they regard Lan Xing as those idiots who have drifted away after becoming a hunter. Every year, several idiots make some troubles because they are too floating. Embarrassing thing, they were obviously looking forward to the appearance of the trade union knights to teach Blue Star a lesson;
However, some hunters who have been active in East Doruma for the past year have recognized Blue Star’s identity. While they know the rules, they also know that Blue Star is not an idiot. Most of them have guessed Blue Star’s purpose.
Sure enough, when Lan Xing said that he planned to accept the ’emergency mission’, they also showed the expression of ‘as expected’.
Of course, the vast majority of hunters who don’t know Lanxing have shown curiosity. You must know that the “urgent mission” is not something that ordinary hunters can receive because of its special nature. An old hunter with seniority, and Lan Xing looks very young, and he is not a dragon, so everyone is naturally full of curiosity about him.
And the staff member of the Hunter’s Guild who was approached by Lan Xing was stunned when he heard what Lan Xing said, and then quickly picked up a stack of special orders beside him, and at the same time did not forget to remind Lan Xing.
“Sir, please give me your ‘credentials’ to check.”
The staff member in charge of Blue Star is a middle-aged woman wearing glasses. She didn’t have any extra thoughts because of Blue Star’s appearance, she just followed the rules, and Blue Star also took out a passerby from her bosom. Handled special decorations were handed to each other.
This ‘voucher’ was a ‘gift’ given to him by the other party after Blue Star reunited with his teacher in the early days.
The other party didn’t ask much about his disappearance for more than half a year, and gave him the certificate of being able to accept the “emergency mission” in the Hunter’s Guild. Coupled with what the other party said when he met the other party, Blue Star suspected… No, He was sure his teacher should know something about the ‘Gate of Fate’.
After all, the danger of urgent missions is self-evident, and the other party gave me the certificate without asking, which is enough to show that the other party has determined his own strength through other methods.
But since the other party didn’t take the initiative to speak, Blue Star didn’t ask too much.
This is a tacit understanding between men.
After the other party took the voucher, he first activated the ‘voucher’ with a special instrument, and after confirming its authenticity, he nodded to Lanxing and handed the order to Lanxing.
Compared with the simple entrustment form that only has ‘task location’, ‘task objective’ and ‘reward’, the information on the entrustment form in Blue Star’s hands is more detailed.
First of all, the entrusting party is a caravan. According to the entrusting party, because they inadvertently got involved in the “territory competition” of monsters when replenishing water in a small oasis, the strength of the two monsters is very strong. The escorting hunters only had time to evacuate with the caravan, and the supplies they originally transported were scattered in the oasis.
The other party hopes that the client will eliminate or capture the monsters in the small oasis, so that they can return to the scene of the incident to recover supplies.
As for the two sides in the ‘territory struggle’…
“The water dragon and the scythe crab have a territorial dispute? Generally, the water dragon can’t beat the scythe crab, right?”
Because the order form on the bulletin board only stated that the commission targets were ‘Water Dragon’ and ‘Sickle Crab’, he originally thought that these two monsters appeared in a certain area, but he didn’t expect that the trouble caused by ‘territory competition’.
The so-called ‘territory scramble’ refers to wild monsters fighting for habitat or courtship, etc., but generally speaking, the winner will occupy that area, while the loser will leave.
But as Lan Xing said, the sickle crab is one of the most powerful monsters among the crustaceans, and it is even said that there is a special sickle crab named ‘Armor Crack’.
Because several crusades organized by the hunter public households ended in failure, and every time the hunters who participated in the crusade almost suffered heavy casualties, and as long as they were hit by the armor, their armor would basically be scrapped.
But even if it’s just an ordinary scythe crab, an ordinary water dragon can’t beat it. After all, the opponent’s sharp claws are enough to tear the scales of the water dragon, but the water dragon can’t effectively kill it.
Lan Xing continued to read it with curiosity, and then showed an expression of sudden realization.
“According to the hunter’s report, although the battle took place at night and the two sides in the battle could not be seen clearly, the scales of the water dragon are of abnormal color, and it is suspected that it may be a subspecies of ‘Emerald Water Dragon’.”
The emerald water dragon is a subspecies of water dragon, but its combat power is much stronger than that of ordinary water dragons. If it is an emerald water dragon, it is indeed qualified to compete with sickle crabs for territory.
The two monsters are not weak, and they are indeed not opponents that ordinary hunters can deal with. In addition, the area where they fight belongs to a small oasis, and many caravans need to replenish water sources there. Considering the impact, it is no wonder that the Hunter Guild regards them as “emergency” Task’ to publish.
Although the strength of these two monsters is not weak, Blue Star is confident that he can still handle them, not to mention that the difficulty of entrusting them will be reduced if they wait until the two sides fight to pick up cheap ones, which is just right for testing.
What’s more, Blue Star has an advantage that other hunters don’t have, and that is the intelligence advantage.
He can completely monitor it through the ‘ship installation’ and not be discovered by both sides. Once the two sides fight, he can reap the benefits of the fisherman.
It can be said that this task is just right for experimentation, not to mention that the material of sickle crab can also be used to make armor suitable for him.
After a moment of contemplation, Blue Star finally made a decision.
“I have accepted this entrustment, please help me handle it.”
