Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Led by Kurt Aiz, some people walked up the long steps and entered the front hall of the Grand Elder Hall.

Gordon thought he would see many people here, but in fact there were none.

On second thought, it should be that the Great Elders summoned the hunters on the list in batches for confidentiality to avoid too much communication.

After they arrived at the front hall, a member of the Dragon Clan Guild came out of the hall soon. She bowed slightly and said, "Master Gordon, please follow me.

The rest of you, please wait."

An Xier glanced at Hayata, who was calm and tried to pretend that nothing had happened.

He thought to himself, you really know something.

The Great Elder called everyone over and specially met them separately. This was unusual.

Feng Ying was confused, and Gale's hesitant look was a normal reaction. In comparison, Hayata's calmness seemed a bit deliberate.

Gordon followed the staff into the hall.

The heavy, thick door of the hall, which was enough to block all sounds, was closed.

The whole world seemed to be quiet.

"You're here." The elder's thunderous voice sounded.

Gordon bowed his head slightly to show respect.

"Amos should have informed you, right?" asked the guild leader sitting below the elder. "Have you guessed the content of the assessment?"

Gordon nodded and said, "Gene told me about those black bones. If I'm not mistaken, it should be touching those black blocks?"

"It's about the same, it might be more exciting." The guild leader showed a subtle expression on his face that could not be called a smile.

The elder was much more direct. He said in a low voice: "There is a huge sword in the ice cave behind the village of Pokai.

That sword belongs to another dragon man in a distant era."

"Another dragon man?"

So there are other similar elders in history?

The elder nodded slowly, "Yes, in my opinion, the dragon man is stronger than me.

After all, he once killed 'Miraporeas (Black Dragon)', and that sword was made of its material."

"Black Dragon." Gordon repeated the word.

"So the one occupying the ancient Shulet City, and the skull we had contacted in the Lingfeng Ruins, are all monsters called black dragons?"

"That's right." The guild leader nodded his chin lightly, "According to the plan, everyone must pass the test before being told these deeper "taboo" knowledge.

But you and Hayata have both directly contacted the skull, so..."

"Want to try it? That test." The elder interrupted the guild leader with a reverberating dull voice.

His eyes fell on Gordon through his drooping white eyebrows.

"Then give it a try." Gordon's mentality was very relaxed.

He had absolute confidence in his willpower.

A smile appeared in the eyes of the elder, and he winked at the guild leader.

The latter picked up a metal box from behind that looked inconspicuous but looked quite thick and brought it to Gordon.

Gordon opened the box and found that it was still wrapped and stuffed with some old and worn cloth, which reminded him of Feng Ying's dragon skeleton cloth.

I think it should be something similar, used to seal the breath.

He casually lifted the cloth, and a strange crystal slightly larger than a fist, turbid and dark yellow, appeared in front of him.

The crystal was a regular spherical shape, a little damaged, with a crack in the center, and the dark color in the crack seemed to connect to another world.

This is a crystallized eyeball.

The moment he met the line of sight with this "eye", Gordon felt that his heart was pinched by an invisible hand, and the strange and cold breath froze his soul.

Fortunately, these strange feelings only lasted for a very short moment, and he got rid of the suppression of this breath.

He could bear this ten years ago, let alone now.

Gordon reached out and picked up the crystal, looked at it carefully, fiddled with it for a few times before putting it back, "Is this the eyeball of the 'black dragon'?

Is it a little small? The eyeball of the fire dragon is bigger than this."

The guild leader carefully covered it with a cloth to isolate the breath, and then closed the metal box, and then said: "To be precise, it is the evil crystal formed by the dragon pupil drying and condensing after the black dragon died. We call it the 'evil eye of the black dragon'.

It came from the huge sword in the ice cave in Bokai Village and is one of the core materials of that sword."

"So Senior Amos went to Bokai Village to take this eyeball?" Gordon asked curiously.

".It's not wrong to understand it this way. The sword was originally used to deter the Collapse Dragon deep in the Great Snow Mountain.

But since the Collapse Dragon ran out by itself and was dealt with by the hunters, the importance of the sword is not that strong.

Of course, out of respect for the dragon man, after the test is over, we will embed the evil eye back into the giant sword and reseal it."

It's a bit difficult to evaluate the Collapse Dragon.

Gordon pulled the corner of his mouth, "So, the content of the test is to let the hunters on the list touch the evil eye in turn, and those who are fine will pass?"

The guild leader trembled his eyebrows, "Not touching, but looking. After looking at the evil eye, those who get rid of the suppression in a short time and are mentally stable can pass.

After all, the oppression of a living black dragon will only be stronger than this evil eye. If you can't even do this, you will only die if you walk in front of the black dragon."

"That's right." Gordon nodded.

If it was something of this magnitude, Anhil and the others would definitely not have a problem, and even Pandan would be able to do it easily.

"Oh yes, let me make a suggestion. If a hunter who passes the test has a hunting partner, it is best for the hunting partner to take the test as well."

"Reasonable suggestions, I have taken note of them." The guild director nodded.

As for the possibility of someone having a mental breakdown during the test, Gordon didn't ask, and the Great Elder and the others didn't explain it either.

The people on that list must have been carefully selected, and they wouldn't be that unbearable.

"For more specific information about the black dragon, there will be a special meeting later. Try to stay in Dongdoruma during this period, and please keep it confidential." The guild director gave a few final reminders.

Gordon responded and was about to leave.

A staff member came up at the right time and led him out of the hall through the side door.

Gordon, who came to the side hall, did not go back alone. Instead, he leaned on the doorpost and waited for his companions.

Soon Hayata came out.

Her face was calm, and she knew the result without asking. The two exchanged words in a low voice, and Feng Ying and An Xil also walked out of the side door of the hall one after another.

Having faced off against the other "taboo", they would naturally not be frightened by an evil eye.

Feng Ying even said carelessly that the eyeball was pretty good-looking, and she would have the chance to remove it completely from the mushroom.

"So what you are hiding is this test?" Ancil asked.

Gordon shrugged, "Yes, Hayata and I have come into contact with the skull of the black dragon. The guild director was worried that we might have guessed something, causing the information to be leaked in advance."

"He thinks too much." An Xil snorted.

Gordon reached out and hooked his neck angrily, and was about to say something when he suddenly noticed a hint of worry hidden in Ancil's eyes.

Before he could ask, he saw Gale walking out of the hall humming a tune.

Ancil moved Gordon's arm away and looked at Gale.

"How about it?"

"How about what?" Gale looked confused, "You don't think I can't pass that quiz, do you?"

"No." The worry in Ancier's eyes became more obvious.

He actually hoped that Gale would fail.
