Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

"But wouldn't this be a bit dangerous?"

Hayata looked worried, "If the Dragon King is introduced in this way, we cannot be sure when and how the Dragon King will appear, and it will be difficult to be fully prepared for the battle."

The professor raised his palm to signal her to be calm, "First of all, I want you to be clear.

No matter it is me, the Commander-in-Chief, Master Campbell, or the Great Elder, they never expected you to kill the Dragon King.

I am not looking down on your strength. There is no doubt that you are already the top hunters.

But that is a 'taboo' and is definitely beyond the reach of humans.

Letting a few of you fight the Dragon King head-on, or even asking to hunt him, is no different than asking you to die. "

Gordon frowned, "Then what's the purpose of the guild sending us here? Is it just to investigate? Even if we finally find the unknown of the Dragon King, we won't do anything?"

"Of course not." The professor twirled the beard on his chin, "From the behavior pattern of the Dark Lantern Dragon, we can roughly infer some of the habits of the Dragon King who is suspected of being an adult.

They unscrupulously absorb the energy of this land and will eventually destroy it all.

Nature will take action. This is what we call ‘nature’s restraining power’. "

Ancil frowned. Mr. Mecca (a dragon hunter) also said similar things, but he didn't fully agree with it.

"Is this kind of thinking too passive? Can we place our hope on these invisible and intangible things?"

"It's not invisible or intangible." The professor turned to Ancil, "The ancient dragon people's motto mentioned that the appearance of the Dragon King will bring about the 'dark sun'.

The latter is the embodiment of ‘destruction’. What do you think it is here to destroy?

If you think this is just some kind of unrealistic prediction and not reliable enough, don't forget that there is Gulongdu. "

"Gulongdu?"

"Under the influence of the Dragon King, the ancient dragons in the Old Continent became restless.

Even if only a very small number actually come across the sea, don't forget that they are ancient dragons, not big wild boars or strange birds.

Every one is a moving natural disaster.

The Dragon King who hides in the dark, controls energy, and changes the environment is safe.

But once it comes to the scene.

Those ancient dragons who came across the sea found that they were lured by a certain existence in order to 'eat' themselves. What do you think they would do? "

Anhir fell silent.

“Don’t take yourself too seriously, we are part of nature, and hunters’ efforts to maintain the balance of nature are also part of nature’s self-regulating ability.

But we are by no means the masters of the world, and hunters and guilds cannot be equated with the so-called 'inhibition power'.

In my opinion, even if we don't do anything, the dragon king will not survive for long, because it is the enemy of the entire world and the entire nature.

Unless it's really powerful enough to burn everything down.

If it gets to that level, can you stop it with just a few of you? "

After hearing these words from the professor, Aiden scratched his hair helplessly, "If this is the case, what is the point of all our efforts?"

When the young man was in mood swings, he always liked to play with the red hair on his head.

The professor glared at Julius, his eyes clearly saying, "Did you teach this fool?"

Feng Ying secretly closed her mouth. She actually wanted to say that, but Aiden beat her to it.

Julius held his forehead helplessly, and Gordon smiled and explained for him: "What we do is not entirely for nature, but more for mankind.

You can think of it as, we gave the ‘Dragon King’ a hard tug.

Let it come to the stage from behind the scenes in advance, whether it is the incarnation of destruction or other ancient dragons lured by it, they will notice it earlier.

This change may not matter to nature as a whole.

But if these matters are resolved earlier, the various turmoil caused by the ancient dragon's restlessness can be calmed down earlier, which is very important for our human civilization. "

"I see!"

"Everything that needs to be explained has been explained clearly." The short professor stood on the chair, "In the next stage, don't disperse your actions, hunt as a team.

Let me set a goal for you first. The silver side team will have four large monsters a day, and the pen team will have three monsters a day.

The density of large monsters in the Guiding Lands is very high, which shouldn't be too stressful for you.

Whether it's a coral land or a forest, you can choose any place and clear out the upper ecosystem in that area! "

In the camp.

The oven door was opened.

Alva peered inside.

"Huh? Is it a little too hot?"

"Then why don't you take it out quickly!?" Pig Chop meowed angrily.

Alva grabbed the shovel on the side and hurriedly shoveled the huge piece of barbecue out of the oven and put it on the plate.

"Phew - at least it's not burnt and can be eaten!"

Alva breathed a sigh of relief, shoveled the barbecue onto the small table where the hunters were sitting around, picked up the meat cleaver, and cut the huge piece of barbecue, which weighed more than ten kilograms, into thick slices.

The cross-section of the meat is no longer the mouth-watering pink color, nor is there much juice, it is dry.

But Alva was quite satisfied, "Twelve-minute rare grass-fed dragon steak, very chewy! Sprinkle a handful of pepper and salt to finish!"

"Too much, meow!"

The hunters at the table looked a little gloomy.

Originally, the pork chop should be used to cook the cat food, but Alva took the initiative to say that as the editor of the team, this part of the work should be his responsibility.

Everyone said to let him try.

The result was obviously not very good. Of course, this steak is not inedible, but the training effect on the masseter muscle is more obvious.

Gordon sighed, "Eat quickly, everyone, fill your stomach and set off."

Feng Ying put a piece on her plate and bit it hard, and finally bit off a piece.

She had a bitter face, chewing hard, and muttered, "I should have known that I should not have let Ai Bo go to the pen head team. Ai Bo's cooking is also delicious.

My God, it's a bit salty."

Alva laughed dryly and handed her a piece of bread.

Other professional skills such as ecology, mapping, navigation, trace analysis, etc., he is the best among all editors.

It's just that the cooking skills...

After finishing the meal with some effort, Gordon wiped his mouth and stood up, "Let Pork Chop take charge of the cooking work in the future."

Xianglan stretched his neck to swallow the meat in his mouth, but choked, so he quickly asked Hayata to help him pat it a few times before swallowing it.

He said angrily: "Who usually cooks in your family? The sheriff should arrest you meow!"

"Not really, at least it can fill your stomach and won't hurt your stomach." Ansel had a blank expression, "But I think you should really put more energy into data collection and map making."

".Okay."

Alva gave up, threw his apron aside, and picked up the thick notebook.

"Our plan for today is this. There is a poisonous bird nearby. We will deal with it first, and then we will go to the south to find a female fire dragon. It may call its mate during the battle, which is the best.

In the afternoon, there is a thunder wolf dragon to the southwest. If we can deal with it quickly, we will go to the west. There are traces of the brute jaw dragon!"

Gordon grabbed the inscription sword and put it on his back.

"Four large monsters in one day? As long as we don't waste too much time on the road, there will be no problem. Let's go!"
