Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Gale stared, looking like he was going to hit someone.

Minare wiped the spit that flew onto her face, raised her hands and said with a dry smile: "Please don't get excited, don't get excited, let me explain.

The rodents living in this armor are no ordinary rodents.

Instead, it was a special rodent that once parasitized on the original Jue Silver Dragon and gained great power. Driven by instinct, it endlessly thirsted for essence.

We named it ‘The Rodent of the Wild Abyss’! "

"Isn't this **** even worse?!" Gale rolled up his sleeves.

As the owner of the armor, Ancil looked calm, but he was already thinking about how to destroy the armor in the safest and most secure way.

"No, no, no, it sounds dangerous, but these rodents are all different. How should we explain it?"

Minale vigorously scratched her flaming red wavy hair, "This is not the first time that Yuanjue Silver Dragon has been infected with rodents. You know this, right?

While reaching a tacit agreement with the Silver Knight to help it recuperate, Researcher Bahari and the others discovered that a special rodent had been living in the body of the original Silver Knight for a long time.

It is the wild abyss rodent mentioned before.

These rodents have lived with the original Jueyinlong for countless years, and their bodies have already undergone some degeneration, or evolution?

They have lost the ability to release viruses and infect the host, and they will no longer absorb essence from the host. Instead, they will absorb life energy and nutrients from the host's prey.

In other words, they have reached a true 'symbiotic' relationship with the original Jue Silver Dragon, rather than being 'parasitic'.

The reason why the original Jue Silver Dragon is able to skillfully use rodents to carry out energy attacks is that the role of this special rodent cannot be ignored.

Overall, they are safe. "

"Hmm -" Gale snorted coldly, obviously not trusting the other party's statement.

Rodents are dangerous species that can cause large-scale epidemics, and their threat level is comparable to that of typhoid. If you say it is safe, does it mean it is really safe?

Minare obviously also knew that a simple explanation could not gain the trust of the hunters.

So he took the initiative to walk up to the [Original] armor, and with some effort, he pulled out a "Wild Abyss Rodger" from the gap in the armor.

Compared with ordinary rodents, this rodent is smaller, about the same size as a butterfly, and is darker in color, dark red like stale blood.

She opened her collar and placed the rodent on the side of her neck near the artery.

The expressions of Gale and others couldn't help but change.

Lieyan, who they were familiar with, would use rodents to enhance their combat power. According to her, as long as the rodents were placed on their bodies and attracted by the breath of blood, they would consciously bite open the skin and try to drill into the blood vessels.

However, this rodent seemed completely uninterested in Minare's flesh and blood. As soon as she let go, she couldn't wait to fly away and got back into the [original] armor.

As if that is its warm nest.

"Probably, that's what it means." Minale said seriously: "We never thought about using this kind of rodent into equipment at the beginning.

It was the suggestion made by researcher Bahari after they had an in-depth understanding.

The habits of this rodent, which has lived in symbiosis with the original Jue Silver Dragon for many years, have completely changed.

They no longer aim to suck the host dry and extract energy for their own development, but will actively help the host.

Sounds incredible, right? We have experimented many times and it is even possible to do this.”

With that said, Minare took out the helmet from the equipment box and put it on her head.

Then he pulled out a small dagger and slashed his palm.

Blood gushed out, and rodents smelling the smell of blood immediately emerged from the gaps in the helmet and flew around Minare, looking very anxious.

A craftsman who came with Minare took the initiative to step forward and allowed Minare to cut his arm with a dagger.

As if they had received the signal, the rodents swarmed into the craftsman's hand and sucked the blood.

Then it flew back to Minare's hand and lay down on the wound in her palm. As a burst of blood-red light lit up, the bleeding from the wound in Minare's palm gradually stopped.

The hunters looked at this scene in astonishment.

"Are they helping you heal?" Feng Ying asked with her eyes widened.

"That's right." Minare took out a bottle of recovery medicine and handed it to the craftsman, and then said: "To be precise, it is healing the 'host'.

They seem to regard the [original] and the user as one unified individual. Perhaps in their view, the [original] is the carapace, and the user is the 'host' where they reside.

Once the user is harmed, they will actively absorb the life essence of surrounding creatures and feed it back to the host. "

"It sounds a bit like the bug-hunting bugs of the Bug Stick Users." Gordon pondered.

"That's right!" Minale snapped her fingers, "The life energy and essence they absorb can not only help the host heal, but can also further enhance the host's strength.

Note that the virus is not used to burn the host's life in exchange for power, but to feed back monster essence to improve the host's physical abilities.

There are no side effects, this is very similar to hunting insects!

You can even understand it as a kind of blessing, we call it ‘Qi and Blood Awakening’! "

"I have a question." Ansil frowned and asked, "If my companions and I are injured together, will they absorb the vitality of my companions to heal me?"

Minalei's eyes twitched.

The answer is actually yes, but she certainly can't just say "yes", otherwise Ansil will most likely destroy this set of armor

"Well, how should I put it? The life energy intensity of humans is actually not high, especially compared with large monsters.

If there are wounds on the monster's body, especially those in weak parts and with a lot of bleeding, the attraction to these gnawing insects is definitely much stronger than that of injured humans.

Moreover, they will regard your hostility and attack as instructions.

If you are fighting a monster, they will definitely fly to the monster to absorb vitality, instead of staring at your companions to absorb it."

Gordon and Fengying looked at each other.

From the final effect, the so-called "Qi and Blood Awakening" effect is not much different from their "Exterminating Dragon's Dominance" and "Red Dragon's Seal".

What's even more amazing is that this effect is actually useful for shooters like Ansil, because the gnawing insects can fly around to help the host absorb life energy and essence.

Seeing Ansil fall into deep thought, Minalei hurried to continue explaining: "As you all know, gnawing insects have the ability to soften the monster's shell.

If you continue to attack certain weak parts of the monster, such as the head.

They will also focus on flying to the monster's head to absorb energy. In this process, the monster's head shell will gradually become fragile and easier to be destroyed (combo, destroyer).

From various angles, it is these 'Mad Abyss Gnawing Insects' that constitute this set of [Original] armor's extremely special protection system!"

"Hmm"

Ansil pondered.

To be honest, he is not particularly interested in the fact that the gnawing insects absorb life energy to help the host recover from injuries.

After all, he is not a swordsman, and with his fighting style, he is not often injured in battle.

But these special gnawing insects cooperate with the host to attack, soften the monster's shell, and strengthen the attack from the side, which makes him very valued.

The monster essence fed back will also effectively improve the host's physical ability and help him maintain a better state in battle.

Just like those insect stick users who can fly and hide after absorbing the monster essence.

From these aspects, this set of [Original] is indeed suitable for him.

"It looks righteous and majestic, but it is actually a sinister vampire?" Ansel laughed softly, "It's interesting."

Gail on the side picked his nose, "Wow, capitalist exclusive equipment, right? This is too suitable for you!"

"?"
