Chapter 56 Rumors about Blue Star

There was no trouble in accepting the ’emergency mission’, but when Lan Xing took Hestia and the others to the station, unexpected troubles arose.

Although hunters have inhuman physiques, and some hunters with strong bodies can even fight small monsters without weapons, and even legends that someone can fight a golden lion, I don’t know if it’s true or not, but the stamina of most hunters It’s all good but it’s a fact. After all, if you don’t have enough stamina in the wild, there may even be embarrassing things where monsters can’t escape and catch up.

But in order to save physical strength, hunters still take various means of transportation.

The more common ones are Marutori (a herbivorous monster similar to a chocobo) and herbivorous dragon (a monster similar to a herbivorous dinosaur walking on all fours). It is said that in snow mountain areas such as Pokai Village, Bobomon ( A herbivorous monster resembling a mammoth) pulls a cart.

Blue Star accepted the ’emergency mission’ from the Hunter’s Guild, and of course he could also use the transport provided by the guild, but the problem was that Lan Xing was not the only one taking the transport.

Tiayou, Eve, Hestia, and Erina, especially Lan Xing had a cauldron in the backpack on his back. It seemed that Lan Xing and his group were not so much performing missions as they were out for camping.

If it wasn’t for the fact that the Hunter Guild’s ‘order’ couldn’t be copied, and the guild was right next to it, the coachman in charge of driving even wondered if Lan Xing and the others were fooling him into wanting to prostitute his carriage for nothing.

Looking at the coachman who didn’t know how to complain, Lan Xing was not very good at explaining to him.

It is true that Ti Yayou and Erina have no fighting power, but the other two in the team are not ordinary people.

Regardless of actual combat experience, Eve’s lethality even surpassed most hunters. Yes, although she lost the fighting instinct originally given by ‘darkness’, her strength is also steadily rising as she usually trains with Blue Star. Considering The other party is just a child now, and the growth potential is not even visible for a while.

As for Hestia, needless to say, according to her own statement, she can also use her “divine power” after going to other worlds and does not need to pay any price for it, but there are gains and losses, perhaps because she is not in the original world. For the sake of the world, her divine power is used a little less, and can only be replenished after returning.

But even so, the divine power possessed by Hestia far exceeds that of the current Blue Star.

It can be said that the opponent is the strongest member of the team.

It’s a pity that it’s impossible for Lan Xing to tell others these words, and without prior knowledge, who would have thought that the two most harmless-looking people in the team would actually have terrifying lethality.

The final result was that although Blue Star and the others took the Marutori car provided by the guild to complete the mission entrustment site, his reputation seemed to have become a little strange.

It’s just that Lan Xing never dreamed of how outrageous the story of her taking Hestia and the others on an ‘urgent mission’ would eventually spread.

I don’t know if it’s because of the resentment of some bachelors or pure envy. There are even outrageous rumors that Blue Star has to bring a woman with him when he goes to the battlefield because of his lust.

At this time, Lan Xing still embarked on his own mission journey with the naive idea of ​​”the most people complain about not doing business properly”.

Marutori looks round and cute with a duck-like beak, but in fact, the running speed is not slow. Although the instantaneous burst speed is not as fast as that of small bird dragon monsters such as Velociraptor, the speed of running for a long time It’s not slow, at least in Blue Star’s eyes, it’s not inferior to ordinary horses.

Hestia and the others didn’t join the Hunter’s Guild because they were just ordinary people, so they didn’t know what the commission from Blue Star was.

Erina was very excited when she first left ‘Dong Doruma’. After all, no matter how arrogant she was, she couldn’t change the fact that she was still a child. She listened to other hunters bragging a lot in the ‘Meatball Hall’. Doruma’ The outside world is full of expectations. After all, a strange world with countless monsters and ingredients is a completely different experience for Erina who was born in the modern society.

Because the Marutori car was originally driving on the main road, there were basically no monsters on the side of the road, but even on such a wide grassland, there were groups of herbivorous dragons and first-crying dragons (large herbivorous species similar to brontosauruses) Monster) and the occasional chirping sound still make Erina feel as if she has traveled through time to the earth hundreds of millions of years ago.

‘East Doruma’ was established in a grassland, and there were basically no large carnivorous monsters nearby due to the clearing of hunters, and some small group carnivorous monsters also voluntarily left the human activity area under the education of countless predecessors’ blood .

Erina was fascinated by the special ecological environment of the grassland, but soon they gradually left the grassland area and entered a small forest as the Marutori car drove.

Compared with the endless grassland, the forest is even more noisy. Countless small monsters live in the forest, and Lan Xing also takes out his weapon and sits beside the coachman to observe the surrounding environment in a small way.

Different from the grassland, the ecology in the forest is more complicated, and at the same time, there is less human intervention. Although they are driving a frequently used commercial road, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents, and Blue Star naturally needs to be vigilant as a hunter stand up.

The driver of the Marutori car couldn’t help being stunned when he saw Lan Xing sitting silently beside him.

Originally watching Lan Xing take his ‘family’ on an urgent mission, he couldn’t help but slander Lan Xing as a weirdo. Now it seems that even though he is a weirdo, at least he is a very responsible weirdo.

Blue Star and the others were lucky. They were not attacked by monsters as they traveled through the forest. On the contrary, small herbivorous monsters such as elf deer and fungus pigs that occasionally appeared in the lush forest made Erina’s face full of tears. curious.

But as the carriage drove, Erina’s expression became a little subtle, because after the carriage drove for nearly 2 hours, the surrounding environment also changed from the original grassland to the forest, and then from the tall forest to the low one. The bushes eventually turned into a piece of yellow sand.

The scorching sun above the head, surrounded by boundless yellow sand, although there are occasional sandfish and the dorsal fin of Sharon in the yellow sand, which surprised Erina, who has never seen it before, but the scenery in the desert is not good , Erina finally came to the front from the back of the carriage helplessly.

Compared to Erina who felt a little bored, the others seemed very calm.

Eve was full of curiosity about everything she had never seen before, and the desert was no exception. She was even thinking about whether to wait for the car to stop for a while and ask Lan Xing to help her catch a sandfish.

As for Ti Yayou, she leaned against the wall of the car and took a nap, obviously she didn’t rest well last night.

Hestia also finds it a little boring, but unlike Erina, she enjoys the trip in front of her very much. After all, because of the god’s own restrictions, she cannot enter the dungeon to fight side by side with Blue Star, and now she is hunting with Blue Star. From a certain point of view, it can be regarded as satisfying her inner little wish…

Chapter 57 Baiting Wharf

Erina simply felt that the desert was a bit monotonous, but Lan Xing, who was originally sitting in the Marutori car, jumped out of the car ahead of time.

In this seemingly barren desert, besides monsters like the Booming Dragon, there are countless terrifying hunters,

Whether it is the crustaceans inhabiting the desert oasis, or monsters such as the Sharon King, the submerged dragon, or even the horned dragon, they are all good at walking through the desert. Underground launched a surprise attack.

Although with Blue Star’s strength, as long as they don’t get hit in the vitals, even if they are sneak-attacked, there will be no great danger, but it is obvious that both Erina and Tiayu are just ordinary people, and their chances of surviving such an attack can be described as is worrying.

But this way of traveling underground is not without its shortcomings. The biggest disadvantage is that if you feel it carefully, you can detect abnormal vibrations when walking underground. After all, even the smallest Qiankoulong among them is a monster weighing several tons. , so just in case, Blue Star got out of the car early and held a sonic bomb in each hand.

As for why it is a sonic bomb, we have to mention the second common shortcoming of these monsters.

How do monsters lurking under the ground all year round detect the appearance of prey or enemies?

Very simple, powerful hearing is the key for them to find the enemy!

It’s like when facing monsters that rely on vision to fight, Blue Star chooses to use flash bombs to deal with them, while facing enemies that use hearing to fight, Blue Star chooses to use sonic bombs.

Once you find an abnormal vibration under your feet, you can directly throw the sonic bomb and detonate it. The strong sound waves will make it overwhelmed and take the initiative to leave the sand below.

But fortunately they were not attacked until they reached the ‘camp’.

That’s right, the coachman sent by the guild didn’t take him directly to the destination, but sent him to the nearest camp to the destination.

But Blue Star didn’t care at all. Although this was his first official mission after becoming a hunter, not having participated in a hunter mission didn’t mean he didn’t know about it. For example, the purpose of the camp was to give hunters a rest and transit, so They are basically built in relatively hidden areas.

Of course, the real world is different from the game world. Even the camp may be attacked by monsters, so even if you rest in the camp, you must be vigilant.

As for the coachman who sent him here, it wasn’t because the other party was unwilling to help, but because ordinary people couldn’t resist in the face of monsters. Instead of going to the mission site with him to drag yourself down, it’s better to let the other party stay in a safer camp. wait.

In the end, Lanxing walked to the destination with his three family members and the chef Eromao (crossed out) Erina.

But there is one more thing that Blue Star needs to do before going to the destination, and that is———————————— The pier.

“Blue Star! Can we take one home?!”

That’s right, Blue Star’s so-called “worship at the pier” is to visit the local Ailu cat group. Although he himself thinks he can defeat the emerald water dragon and the scythe crab, he still needs to fight with the local Ailu cats. say hello.

However, during the greeting, Lan Xing encountered an unexpected development, that is, when Eve was chatting with the Elder Elu cat in Blue Star, Eve had already ‘captured’ an E Lu cat.

Eve, who was holding a white Ailu cat in her hand, looked at Lan Xing with her big eyes that seemed to be shining, and her pitiful expression gave Lan Xing a headache.

“Although I really want to adopt an Elle cat, but… I can’t.”

As Lan Xing said, as a cat gangster, he would naturally want to take an Elu cat with him if he could. Abducting Ai Lumao, of course, ended with the incident being revealed and being taught a lesson by his own teacher.

As for why…

“Although the Ailu cats look the same as ordinary cats, they are also an intelligent race like us. These Ailu cats living in the wild also have their own families, friends, and even wives, husbands and children. You have the heart to let them Are you separated from your own family?”

Lan Xing’s words stunned Eve, who was full of longing, for two seconds, and finally shook her head helplessly.

Although she did like Elmao very much under the influence of Lan Xing, but for her, what she cherishes the most is Tiayo, Lan Xing, and Hestia, whom she met later, who are like family.

Although she is 16 years old and still looks like a child because of the reason of birth, it is precisely because of such a kind Eve that she can do to others what she does not want to do to others. She does not want to be separated from her family, and naturally she is not willing to do for her own desire Do things that tear people apart.

Seeing the sensible Eve showing a somewhat disappointed expression, Lan Xing finally couldn’t help touching the other’s head to show comfort.

“Most of the cats in the wild don’t want to mix with humans, so they live in the wild. By signing an agreement with the Hunter’s Guild, they support and rescue hunters in the wild and get the protection and rewards of the Hunter’s Guild. However, there are also some cats who like wool by nature. Cats will take the initiative to go to human cities, and after training, they will become ‘Elu cat hunters’ to fight side by side with human hunters, and if you really like Eve, you can also apply to become a hunter.”

Blue Star’s words made Eve’s eyes brighten, and it was obvious that she had plans to become a hunter like Blue Star.

Seeing Eve cheering up again, Lan Xing couldn’t help heaving a sigh of relief, but there was one thing he didn’t tell the other party, that is, after becoming a hunter, he could apply to the guild to form a team with Elu Cat Hunter, but because There are too many applicants, and the number of Ailu cat hunters is limited, which is almost limited every year.

Even he didn’t have his own Ailu cat after becoming a hunter, after all, it was not the time for Ailu cat to finish his training in the Ailu cat training camp.

As for now?

Blue Star’s strength has far surpassed that of a novice hunter. Even if the application is passed, he will probably give up on his own initiative. After all, with the enemies he is facing now, ordinary Ailu cats may be life-threatening, let alone the reason why Ailu cats will Partnering with human hunters is also for training yourself.

Fighting slightly stronger prey is exercise, but fighting too much stronger enemies is courting death.

It is precisely because he loves these lovely creatures that Lan Xing can’t delay them for his own benefit, but Eve’s words should be fine. After all, Eve’s situation is different from his. First of all, she is not like Lan Xing herself. Dangerous things are often encountered, and most ordinary threats can be solved by herself.

That’s why Blue Star suggested that Eve become a hunter and apply for Ai Lumao as his companion.

It’s just that what Lan Xing didn’t notice was that as his voice fell, not only Eve, but also Erina beside him showed a somewhat disappointed expression.

It is obvious that it is not only the former Blue Star but also the current Eve who wants to abduct the Elu cats. Erina also has a similar idea, but Lan Xing’s words made her dispel her desire to lure the Elu cats with delicious food. idea.

But she couldn’t help thinking that maybe she could become a hunter too?

Like being a… gourmet hunter?

Erize has been thinking about the feasibility of the ‘Gourmet Hunter’, but on the other side, Blue Star has already taken Hestia and the others to bid farewell to the Ellu cat tribe stationed near the camp and officially started their mission… …

Chapter 58 ‘Territory Contest’

After bidding farewell to the Ailu cats, Blue Star directly took out the ‘ship suit’ that Tiyayou helped to make and launched it into the air for him to help find the target.

That’s right, the ‘ship outfit’ held by Blue Star is the biggest reliance on his confidence to complete the task quickly.

Otherwise, it is not easy to find the target in the vast desert. You must know that the oasis in the desert is often connected to the underground water system. The green water dragon has a chance to hide in other places, and the sickle crab is a crustacean. He often travels underground in order to find a head of a horned dragon suitable for his own carapace.

In fact, it’s not just the mission that Blue Star received. The first thing most hunters face after receiving the mission is to find the target first. After all, the target monsters are living creatures, and they won’t stay at the sighting place forever.

Therefore, the most common task process is to find the monster’s lair, block the opponent directly in the opponent’s home, or search according to the opponent’s activity range.

Blue Star, on the other hand, can shorten its mission process by relying on ship equipment.

The fleet took off ahead of time and rushed to the small oasis as the destination, trying to use it as the center to collect intelligence from all directions, while Lan Xing led everyone to shuttle through the desert.

However, although it is said to be shuttling in the desert, it is actually not walking normally, but riding a special vehicle made by Tiayou—the hovercraft.

Although she usually looks like a gentle full-time wife, she is a “logistics staff” who is valued by Blue Star. In addition to helping Blue Star make ship outfits and researching “magic” and “technology”, she also Will make something small for Blue Star.

For example, special arrows (arrows with an explosive effect), some means of transportation, and at this time, the hovercraft for five people is the favorite product of the other party.

Not only can it drive on the water like an ordinary boat, but it can even float directly on the ground with its powerful engine. It is precisely because of it that Erina does not have to step on the sand with one deep foot and one shallow foot.

Although the air is a bit dry and hot, Erina still feels very novel about the means of transportation that is completely different from the previous Marutori car.

But at the same time that everyone rushed to their destination, Lan Xing, who was relying on the shared vision of ‘Swordfish’ to observe the surroundings, encountered an unexpected joy.

A few kilometers away from the ‘destination’, a huge water column can be seen rising into the sky. When the ‘Swordfish’ approached for reconnaissance, it was completely shocked by the scene in front of it.

With a body length of more than 10 meters and a height of more than 3 meters, the green water dragon let out an angry roar like a moving hill, while turning sideways and slamming into the distant enemy fiercely.

Although the green water dragon lives in the waters all the year round, and is located in the upper part of the ecological niche in the water, its deterrent force on the ground is also not weak. The thick feet give it a running speed that is not too slow, coupled with its huge The size and weight of an ‘Iron Mountain’ is enough to cause ordinary hunters to suffer serious injuries.

Unlike the emerald green water dragon, which is covered in emerald green and shimmers in the sun, and has a ferocious head but a gorgeous color scheme, the scythe crab looks much more low-key, but low-key does not mean low deterrence.

When the emerald water dragon ‘Tieshan’ turned around, the scythe crab, which was slightly smaller than the emerald water dragon, turned sideways and aimed the huge horned dragon’s head at the emerald water dragon.

A huge bony long horn on the ferocious head behind him, although after years of erosion, is no longer as terrifying as when its original owner ‘one-horned dragon’ manipulated it, but once it is centralized by it, it may still be penetrated directly.

Facing the green water dragon rushing towards him, it resolutely pointed the big horn behind him at the opponent, trying to make the opponent fall into the soul.

However, Cuishuilong, who has fought with the opponent more than once, is not so easy to get the trick. He even slightly deflected his body when reloading, although the big horn behind the opponent still hit the Cuishuilong in the end and drew a slightly hideous line on his body. The wound was not fatal, but Cui Shuilong took the opportunity to hit the opponent’s slightly flat carapace with his body.

“boom!!”

With the huge impact sound, the scythe crab, which was not dominant in size, was almost knocked over, but after stabilizing its figure, it turned around without hesitation and slashed at the opponent with its sharp claws. go.

“Stab~”

Different from the muffled sound before, the sharp claws directly cut a terrifying wound on the body of Cuishuilong. This wound is more exaggerated than the previous one, and the bright red blood keeps falling along the wound, while The scales that originally reflected the sun became a little scary because of the blood smearing.

It’s just that these wounds didn’t make Cui Shuilong give up. On the contrary, it launched a more terrifying counterattack towards the scythe crab. It jumped into the water and sprayed the inhaled water on the scythe crab in the form of a high-pressure water column. and go…

The battle between the two monsters was very exaggerated, while Blue Star manipulated the ‘Swordfish’ to observe the surroundings carefully. Unsurprisingly, he saw a lot of supplies scattered in the nearby sand, many of which had been basically destroyed. Buried in yellow sand.

There is no doubt that the two monsters on the side are his targets.

Because he didn’t know how long the battle between the two monsters would last, Blue Star jumped off the hovercraft after saying “I’ll go to the destination first” to everyone on the hovercraft.

Erina didn’t realize what happened when she saw Lan Xing jumping off the ship, and even couldn’t help but want to hold Lan Xing.

Although Erina didn’t know why Lan Xing suddenly became in a hurry, but in her opinion, since she wanted to hurry, taking transportation was the basic.

But when she saw Lan Xing jumping off the hovercraft, her feet first landed on the sand and fell behind the hovercraft for an instant, and then burst out at a terrifying speed in an instant, not only catching up with the hovercraft in an instant, but even throwing it directly into the air. behind.

Looking at Lan Xing who not only surpassed the hovercraft, but even deliberately detoured to prevent the smoke from choking them, Erina’s hand that was about to extend froze in mid-air. It was obvious that Erina had finally remembered several days ago The picture of how the former Blue Star hugged him and shuttled through the forest.

Thinking about it carefully, the speed of the other party’s running may have surpassed that of an ordinary car, right?

Lan Xing didn’t know what Erina was thinking at this time, he was running towards the destination with all his strength at this time.

Through the vision of ‘Swordfish’, it can be seen that the battle between the emerald water dragon and the scythe crab has entered a fever pitch.

Some people may be puzzled, at this time, shouldn’t we wait for the two monsters to fight to the end and then have a snipe and clam fight for the fisherman’s benefit?
