Diary of the Improper Monster Girl Transformation

Chapter 232 Monster Hunting! (Additional Updates 69 70)

"My Lord! Are you really going to go alone?"

Sophia looked at Herbert who was going his own way with concern, and couldn't help persuading him again.

"Please wait a moment! I won't hold you back, please allow me to go with you!"

The Centaur was a little overwhelmed.

Just now, Herbert suddenly announced without any warning that he was going out alone.

He looked so relaxed, just like an old man who was casually taking a walk outside with his hands behind his back.

But it's very dangerous outside!

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"But...ah."

Sophia snorted lightly, staring at Herbert's retracted palm with resentment.

Herbert shrugged easily, and patted her butt again under Sophia's gaze, not taking her warning to heart at all.

"Okay, don't persuade me anymore."

In Herbert's view, such an obstruction is really meaningless.

Before Sophia came, he had always been able to travel freely in the Misty Mountains.

Well, although this statement is a bit exaggerated, he relied more on the legendary pressure of the hungry dragon and the mermaid.

But even without their help, Herbert was confident that he could travel through the periphery of the Misty Mountains.

In the end, although Sophia gave way, she still asked unwillingly: "My Lord, won't Lady Freme stop you?"

"I have already told her, so you don't have to think about secretly telling her."

When passing by the centaur, Herbert raised his hand and patted her shoulder, then motioned her to lower her head.

"Hmm?"

Sophia blinked, lowered her head honestly, and then Herbert gently pinched her nose.

"Hmm--"

She subconsciously wanted to raise her head, but immediately realized that she couldn't do that, so she could only bend over and let Herbert pinch her nose and shake it left and right.

Herbert admired her embarrassed look, chuckled and let go of her fingers: "Find out your identity, ask what you should ask, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, understand?"

"Hmm! Um--I understand." Miss Centaur rubbed her nose and lowered her head obediently.

Looking back, he regretfully didn't see Miss Mermaid.

Freme didn't come out to see him off. She was exploring the underwater temple at the moment, hoping to find some resources from it.

Fortunately, with Nenasha's guarantee, Herbert could be sure that there was no danger in the underwater temple, so he let her find something to do.

As for Steven... This guy was greatly shocked yesterday.

After a night of thinking, he finally accepted the current situation and calmed down a lot. At this moment, he was sitting quietly in front of the wooden stake engraved with blood wings, lost in thought.

In such a large territory, only Sofia, a loyal minister, was willing to see me off!

A loyal general.

A pillar of the country.

Herbert waved at Sophia again with emotion in his heart.

"Come here."

And this time, Sophia's reaction was obviously much more intense than before, and she trembled suddenly.

Hmm! ?

She obviously hesitated for a moment, sniffed her nose, and then bent over and came to Herbert hesitantly.

Then she took the initiative to stretch her tall nose in front of him.

Here——

She half-closed her eyes nervously, looking uneasy as if she was ready to be ravaged by you.

"Hehe."

Herbert was amused by her appearance, shook his head, and did not pinch her nose, but gently pinched her cheek.

"Okay, I'm leaving, you should also go out to prepare to welcome the guests."

"... Yes."

Sophia touched her cheek that had been pinched just now in a daze, a little confused, and a little throbbing in her heart.

She watched Herbert's figure disappear in the mist, slowly lowered her head, and then raised her head with high morale.

Her morale somehow improved by several degrees, and she strode out of the mountains with her head held high.

Herbert was not as impulsive as Sophia thought this time.

On the contrary, he had actually wanted to do this for a long time.

Herbert did not want to hide under the shadow of others all the time, and he always hoped to have a chance to exercise himself to his heart's content.

Now, the biggest danger in this area has been eliminated. Although the remaining monsters can cause certain difficulties to Herbert, they cannot threaten his life.

A very suitable trial difficulty.

Herbert did not draw his sword, but walked leisurely in the mist as if he was strolling in the woods, humming the melody he heard from Miss Mermaid.

"Hum~"

The mist that can easily devour the lives of others is no obstacle to him, but instead becomes a barrier to protect his figure.

He went to the mist ghost wolf that left a mark last time, ready to score twice and find the ghost wolf's large army again by the old method.

Just like that, a figure flashed in the quiet mist, accompanied by a faint humming.

"Hum~hum~"

If it were a different scene, such a figure and singing might make people feel relaxed and happy, and secretly admire it.

However, in this deserted mountain range shrouded in mist, such a voice suddenly came out... hehe.

This scene can't help but make people's hair stand on end.

But Herbert didn't care about other people's opinions.

As his mood improved, he walked more and more cheerfully, and hummed louder and louder.

"Hum~hum~hum~"

"Hum hum! Ha! Um! Hum hum~"

...

Just as Herbert was wandering in the fog with ease, preparing to find the base camp of the fog ghost wolf.

At the same time, another group of people were cautiously advancing deeper into the fog.

This is a five-person team consisting of a paladin, two monks and two nuns.

Moreover, the strength of these five people has reached a high level!

However, even with such strength, their current appearance is definitely not relaxed, but completely embarrassed.

Although the movements are light, they are just fleeing in embarrassment.

"My Lord, how could we be so unlucky!"

The tall monk in the team pushed away the fallen tree in front of him, while complaining in a low voice.

"If you had listened to me and went back directly after killing the cow, we wouldn't have had so many troubles, Zar, don't you think?"

The shorter monk Zar beside him shook his head silently, signaling him not to speak anymore.

The thin monk Zar had two circles of black cloth wrapped around his mouth, sealing his mouth tightly.

Silent Zen, a way of practice for monks.

The tall monk who complained looked a little fat, but actually every movement contained huge physical energy.

The way of practice for monks is similar to that of paladins, making great wishes in order to obtain the protection after the induction of "Heavenly Way".

The two monks led the way in front, followed by two slender and petite twin nuns.

The two of them were like two twins blooming from the same holy flower, with exactly the same appearance.

They pressed the scriptures on their chests in a unified manner, chanting in a low voice while walking, and continuously applying a ritual of buffing to their teammates.

Unlike other sisters of punishment, they do not have the ability to directly participate in the battle.

But their existence is like an invisible source of power in the team. They are proficient in everything, whether it is to bless shields or increase attack speed and strength.

Their magic can always make teammates more powerful in battle!

And the one who walks at the end of the team and is responsible for the pressure and the rear is a paladin with a weak face.

He walks at the end of the team, like a silent mountain, using his broad back to protect his teammates from possible dangers from behind.

The armor he wears exudes a faint red luster in the mist, and he holds a strange-shaped short sword in his hand.

Or perhaps, it should not be called a short sword.

It is more like a product of a long sword that failed to melt and solidify during the remelting process...

"Fao, are you okay?"

One of the nuns turned her head and looked at Fao with some concern, and whispered: "You shouldn't have participated in this "Monster Hunt" with your physical condition."

Fao shook his head slightly and said slowly: "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with my body."

Monster Hunt can be said to be the most lively event every month in the boring Misty Monastery.

No matter who it is, everyone will have a desire to compete and seek an opportunity to meet the Archbishop.

In theory, a team like theirs should not invite a guy like Fao who is strong but doesn't look well rested.

But they finally agreed after Fao's repeated requests.

And Fao's previous performance did not disappoint them. The team worked together and successfully killed three high-level monsters with the unfamiliar tacit understanding!

This is not an easy task. Each high-level monster, especially the high-level monsters in the Misty Mountains, has special powers that are enough to easily destroy an ordinary adventure team.

Before this, the highest record of monster hunting was five high-level monsters.

As long as they kill two more, they can tie the best record of their predecessors.

If they could be a little luckier, they would create new history!

Unfortunately, perhaps it was not as expected, and fate always liked to catch people off guard when they were most proud.

Just when they were confidently looking for the next prey, an accident happened.

They did encounter the fourth high-level monster, the mist giant lizard, and came to the location on the map.

However, they were a step late.

The giant lizard had been taken by someone else!

A high-level mist ghost wolf actually broke into the giant lizard's territory and killed it in a lose-lose situation!

The giant lizard died and the ghost wolf was seriously injured!

This seemed to be a good time to catch them all in one fell swoop, and they could easily get the proof of two high-level monsters.

With these two proofs, they will create new history and get the opportunity to meet the archbishop!

But just when others were ecstatic, Fao noticed something wrong.

The monsters left their territory and fought with other monsters. This was a very unusual signal.

Fao immediately remembered the warning he had heard from others before.

The forest was restless!

At that moment, Fao did not act rashly, but instead ordered his teammates to retreat quickly.

And soon after they left, Fao's decision was proven to be correct.

Because there was not only one high-level ghost wolf there, but two!

The other one had been half-spiritual and hidden in the mist, and was hiding near them!

This cunning monster had already discovered them, and the other one was pretending to be seriously injured to lure them forward!

Next, the five of them encountered the most torturous battle in their lives.

The two ghost wolves were not very powerful and were not invincible, but their harassment methods were really frightening.

The ghost wolves appeared from the fog without any signs, bit off a piece of flesh and blood, and then disappeared silently in the fog.

They were like the darlings of this fog.

After resisting for a long time, Fao finally took an opportunity to cut off the front leg of one of the ghost wolves, which scared them away.

The team also had time to breathe, and finally opened up a distance, trying to get rid of the two ghost wolves.

Now the ghost wolves seemed to be frightened by Fao's sword. Although they did not give up tracking, they did not dare to get within a hundred meters, and only dared to hang far behind.

They followed them like maggots attached to their bones.

Another nun also turned back and stared at Fao, who was silent, and couldn't help frowning and shaking her head, saying, "Fao, we are companions now, you must tell the truth!"

The two sisters are good at healing magic, so how could they not understand Fao's current state?

"..."

But Fao just continued to remain silent, a little hesitant, and finally did not explain the real reason.

He waved his hand, tightly grasped the long sword in his hand, looked around at the four teammates, and nodded slowly: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, and please believe me, I will definitely take you back to the monastery."

"Alas!"

The two sisters sighed at the same time when they heard this, and they didn't want such a guarantee!

"What on earth are you thinking about? You are like this..."

Just when the scene became more and more awkward, the tall monk took the initiative to change the subject: "Hey! Fao, I don't care about other things, but why do we take this road?"

Looking at the road going deeper and deeper into the fog, he sucked his teeth and said with a grin:

"It was your suggestion to take this road, so we agree, but you are not saying anything now, which really makes us very worried."

The rescued Fao nodded gratefully at him and said in a deep voice:

"I know a way. Although it is a long way around, the monsters there have just been cleared by a strong man, and they should not have been occupied by other monsters."

"There is an empty swamp. If they want to get close to us, they will inevitably expose their whereabouts, but we can rest there for a while."

The place Fao mentioned was naturally the place where they hunted the bog boar.

The lord there was killed by Herbert, and no new monsters would migrate there in a short time. They can take the opportunity to rest for a while in that unowned land.

And what happened next was exactly as Fao had imagined. They arrived at the swamp smoothly.

"Huh! Finally I can take a break."

The tall monk wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his eyes still showed the tension just now, while the shorter monk clenched his weapon.

The two of them took turns to be on guard.

"Zar, don't be nervous, you can relax for a while."

The elder sister of the twin nuns breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It is indeed much flatter here, and we two can have more space to display our strength."

They were restricted in various ways in the forest before, and their strength was not fully exerted. Now that they are on flat ground, they can finally display their strength well.

The two of them stacked the books together, then held hands and chanted silently together.

"I praise you, because your glory protects us from being invaded by foreign enemies."

Buzz——

Soon, a huge hemisphere with a diameter of ten meters was buckled around the team.

With the shield of this hemisphere, the team members were obviously much more relaxed.

Divine Art: Ten-meter Shelter

With this, they can sense the attack at the first moment, and have a certain degree of defense, giving them more time to react.

After their safety was basically guaranteed, the five people quickly moved, took out the dry food and water bags in their backpacks, and quickly filled their mouths.

They had been fighting for too long, and now they urgently needed to recover their strength.

Just as Fao and the others were swallowing, two figures silently emerged in the distance.

The two misty ghost wolves that had followed them all the way stood at the edge of the swamp and shook their feet in disgust.

They stared at their shields with a dim gaze, and after a long time, they slowly retreated and hid in the mist again.

Seeing that the ghost wolves temporarily retreated, the few people were completely relieved.

Although these two guys would definitely not give up completely with the character of their race, the five of them could at least take a breath for a while.

Just after relaxing, the tall monk suddenly became interested and asked curiously: "Speaking of which, Fao, I have always wanted to ask you something."

"When I asked you, you didn't tell me why you insisted on participating in this monster hunt? With your strength, it won't be difficult to participate next month after you have a good rest this time."

They all knew that Fao had escorted a team of adventurers who had died back to the monastery before, and he himself was also seriously injured and should have rested for a while.

However, after he was rescued, he didn't wait for his body to fully recover, and this time he was in a hurry to come back here. What was the hidden story?

He was not the only one who was curious about this matter, the other three were also very concerned, and they all looked at Fao curiously at this moment.

Fao was somewhat helpless under such gazes, and silently shook his head and explained: "In fact, there is no hidden secret you imagine, I just want to follow the footsteps of an adult, hoping to repay his kindness..."

"Follow?"

Several people were a little surprised after hearing this explanation, and kept blinking their eyes.

They didn't expect that Fao would go deep into the Misty Mountains again for such a reason.

And, with Fao's current strength, only legendary strongmen are qualified for him to follow.

"Wait, the adult you are talking about is..."

Just when they were curious about each other's identity, Fao suddenly stood up, raised his sword and roared: "Be careful!"

! ! ?

At this time, the other four people suddenly realized that something was wrong.

At the edge of the mist outside the shield, hundreds of mist ghost wolves had appeared at some point, slowly approaching them!

And, after realizing that their whereabouts were exposed, those guys suddenly jumped up.

Baring their sharp teeth, they ran towards them.

And this was not the most despairing thing for Fao...

Because it was not until this moment that he suddenly realized that the two high-level mist ghost wolves had silently jumped above their heads.

Crack, crack, crack...

Crack!!!
