Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Known as the "secret potion," Gordon had only seen this precious pill in stores in big cities.

The price is expensive, and the supply exceeds the demand. They are usually placed in brocade boxes, and the clerks are careful when handling them.

Its effect is very simple, similar to recovery medicine, but its effect is amazing, it is said to be several times that of ordinary recovery medicine, and the effect is faster.

At the same time, it also has the effect of enhancing physical fitness for a certain period of time, not to improve muscle strength or the like, but to make you more "healthy" and in better condition.

It is also very quick and convenient to take. For hunters, it can be said to be the best life-saving "magic medicine".

"Are you sure?" Gordon asked softly, squatting down beside Julius.

"Sure."

Julius nodded seriously, "I have taken the secret medicine before, and I always keep one with me just in case. These are undoubtedly the secret medicines, and the quality is very good."

Gordon took a breath, once again feeling the unusualness of this village.

The big monk who usually walks as a young farmer, the child who mastered the alchemy of the ancient dragon people, and the sundry stall selling precious medicines.

Calming down, he looked at the old man who was watching the stall, "Old man, old man?"

"Huh?" The old man of the Dragon Race woke up from his doze, "I have a guest, do you need anything?"

"These are secret medicines?"

"Yes."

"How much is it?" Gordon asked excitedly.

"Money?" The old man scratched his bald head, "I haven't used money for a long time."

The dragon-human girl explained in a low voice: "Sinard Village is isolated from the outside world and self-sufficient, so money is rarely used, and barter is more common."

"Uh, how about barter?"

"It's usually food, or cloth, medicinal materials and other practical items."

Gordon is a bit numb, who goes hunting with these?

The dragon-human girl hesitated, "Perhaps, I can act as an intermediary and help you exchange. After that, I also have a plan to go down the mountain to practice hunters. Cash is useful to me."

"That's just right!"

Several people discussed it, and finally Gordon and the others bought these secret medicines at a price less than half of the market price.

The dragon-human girl and the grocery stall owner also felt that they had made a profit.

"When you go down the mountain in the future, bring more secret medicines. If you go to a big city, you can sell them easily. The price will be twice as much, and you will have all the travel expenses." Gordon said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"Okay!" The dragon-human girl nodded happily.

After sharing the secret medicine with Julius, Gordon glanced at the sky.

"It should be almost time, shall we go back to the Alchemy House?"

"Um."

When they returned to the alchemy room, they saw the fourteenth generation of Maca coming out of the room with shaky footsteps.

Holding a piece of unrecognizable debris in his hand, he staggered and knelt down on the ground.

"Miss, failed, the reaction collapsed, refined, refined and exploded."

Everyone: "."

Nadia looked like she didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and her expression was very complicated.

Under the watchful supervision of the girl from the Dragon Race, the little fat man wept and gave Nadia the protective stone, one of his favorite works.

Now it was Nadia's turn to be embarrassed, and expressed his willingness to pay compensation, but the little fat man firmly refused.

"Please respect the dignity of the alchemist!"

The time to set off for the hunting ground was an hour or two later than expected.

But they all thought it was worth it.

Especially Nadia, if it wasn't for the fact that the dragon-human girl was still around, which made her a little embarrassed, she would have wanted to roll twice in place to try the effect of the stone protection.

The dragon-human girl who led the way was lightly jumping forward on the almost straight up and down stone path, and followed her. The hunters felt a little strenuous.

Especially Gordon, who is tall and burly, with heavy armor, carrying a big steel sword, and helping Nadia share a lot of ammunition.

He was very worried that if his footsteps were heavier, the wooden ladder that didn't look very strong would be broken from it.

Gordon has traveled the continent over the past few years, visiting various hunting grounds.

Muddy swamps, hot volcanoes, barren deserts, dark crypts, deep sea of ​​trees.

But none is as special as Sky Mountain.

——The landform here gives people a feeling of "kneading".

It seems that there are two giant hands that can pull the entire continent, squeezing the continental plate with force, and completing the crustal changes that should have taken tens of millions of years in just a few thousand years.

Under the extrusion of this force, the originally flat rock formations were broken, stacked, and raised upwards, mixed with the ancient buildings that once stood on it, and together formed the unique mountain of Sky Mountain.

A small amount of soil, vines, and low vegetation are dotted in between.

It is difficult to tell whether they grow on the mountain composed of huge rocks and relics, or whether they glue the rocks and relics together to form the mountain peak.

"Rumble rumble!"

A huge boulder the size of a herbivorous dragon cart fell vertically on the cliff slope not far from the group of people, broke into several pieces, and rolled down into the bottomless abyss below.

There were echoes.

The three hunters and a cat stopped vigilantly and looked upwards.

This phenomenon of rolling rocks is often accompanied by the appearance of large monsters—when the rocks cannot withstand the weight of dozens or hundreds of tons of the large monster's footsteps, they will crack and roll down.

The dragon-human girl continued to move forward as if nothing had happened.

Jumping and running forward for more than ten meters, she noticed that the hunters behind had not followed, and turned her head to wave to them.

"Don't worry! It's very common for boulders to fall on Sky Mountain, just be careful to avoid them!"

Gordon straightened his helmet, marveling in his heart.

Leaves fall from dense forests, trees and seas, rain falls from swamps, sand falls from deserts, boulders the size of houses fall from the sky, right?

"How far is it from the target hunting ground?" Julius asked loudly.

The dragon-human girl tilted her head and thought for a while, then pointed to the front, "It's almost here!"

A group of footsteps restarted.

This "it's almost there" is noon.

The hunter camp opened between the cliffs finally appeared before their eyes.

At the entrance of the camp, the Dragonborn girl said goodbye to the hunters.

Gordon and the others couldn't help being relieved that this girl who dreamed of becoming a hunter but wasn't even a trainee hunter didn't brag about asking her colleagues to hunt.

The previous Fengying probably could do this kind of thing.

The dragon-human girl who was about to leave suddenly turned around.

"I'm sorry, sorry, I almost forgot the most important thing!" The dragon-human girl knocked herself on the head with some annoyance.

"What is it?" Julius asked.

The expression of the dragon-human girl became more serious than ever.

It's not the sullen face pretending to be mature like before, but a vigilance and warning from the heart.

"No matter what happens, you must not go in that direction." The girl pointed in a direction, "There is a 'forbidden place' guarded by our family for generations.

The monk is saying that if you enter recklessly, it may cause a disaster that will overturn the world. "

Three people and one cat: "."

"Seriously, I really can't go there!" The girl seemed to be not serious enough, so the girl repeated a few more words emphatically.

Everyone: "."

After a brief silence, Julius said helplessly: "We are not the kind of people who are particularly curious. Don't worry, we won't go there."

Speaking of this, Julius paused for a moment, and then suggested: "Also, your statement is particularly easy to arouse people's curiosity, so don't say it again in the future."

Dragon Race girl: "."
