Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

The airship that Gordon and the others took when they came had been on standby in a cave twenty to thirty kilometers away from the Lingfeng Mountains.

Very close to the retreat meeting point.

Before night fell, the airship sailed smoothly—this is the benefit of having a mine at home.

There is no need to consider issues such as flight routes and departure times. The driver and crew are all employees of the company, and they can go wherever they are called. It is as convenient as a Marutori car.

The professor and the others couldn't help but look at Anshir a few more times.

With such family conditions, it is not uncommon for young masters and misses to be hunters, but most of them are just curious to experience life.

After "playing" for a while, I was tired and scared, so I ran away.

It can be said that there is no one like An Xier who has been promoted to five-star at such a young age, close to the upper level.

In order to avoid being discovered by Lanlong, the airship did not dare to rise too high after take-off.

It wasn't until the main peak of the Lingfeng Mountains, which soared into the sky like a pillar of the sky, disappeared beyond the horizon, that everyone was completely relieved.

"Gordon, Pig Chop, please describe in as much detail as possible what you have seen and experienced in the ruins.

The pork chop was briefly mentioned before, but it was too vague, and you hadn't come back at that time, and it was disturbing.

Don't worry about talking 'nonsense', don't let go of what you feel, think of, physical feelings, even if it is a hallucination on the psychological and spiritual level.

In all aspects, every detail should not be overlooked. "

The professor prepared a pen and paper and planned to record what they said verbatim.

Gordon was a little confused. He was too tired, but he thought that it would take time to summarize and sort out the information. If he fell asleep now, the transmission of the information would take at least a whole day at night, so he had to cheer up.

"Hayatta, help me to ask the crew of the airship if they have vitality drinks."

Hayata glanced at Gordon worriedly, but also knew the importance of this matter at the moment, nodded her jaw, and went to find the crew.

"Where do I start, well, let me think about it, at that time, Pig Chop and I tried our best to avoid the attack and escape, and finally came to the ruins.

Lanlong obviously hesitated for a moment at that time, and then began to breathe out. It obviously didn't want to get too close to the ruins.

Because the only crack we found before was at the top of the ruins, it was really difficult to climb, so I thought about using Lanlong's attack to destroy the outer wall of the ruins, so as to enter."

Gordon started when he used flash bombs to interfere with Lanlong's sight, luring him to break through the outer wall of the ruins.

The professor interrupted the question from time to time, not even letting go of how the pork chop came up with the idea of ​​using the incendiary in the incendiary bomb as a torch.

"Hoo meow——, does this have something to do with what's going on next meow?" Pig Chop, who was also very sleepy, yawned and asked.

The professor pushed his glasses with a very serious expression, "Yes, you may not realize how evil that 'taboo' exists.

Even its relics can drive people crazy, and there is even a point of view among some scholars—those ominous remnants will tempt people to discover them.

I want to confirm whether your idea of ​​making torches and starting to explore is completely out of your own subjective will, or whether you have received some kind of 'guidance'. "

Gordon and Pork Chop looked at each other, and they both felt their hearts tremble.

"So, I do seem to be a little excited in the ruins?"

Gordon said hesitantly: "I'm not sure if this is a sign of mental relaxation after getting rid of the Lanlong temporarily, or the influence of the Tyrannosaurus armor.

Or, maybe the influence of 'that thing' might be there? "

"Excited? I wrote it down." The professor quickly wrote a few lines.

Apparently not just "note down" the extent, but added a lot of notes.

"And Gordon seemed to be very determined to find that thing at the time, meow. If it was normal, I think Gordon would be more cautious." Pig Chop added.

"Uh, isn't this a bit suspicious?"

"No, what Pig Chop said is very important." The professor stared into Gordon's eyes, "Recall carefully why you had the idea of ​​'finding something' at that time."

"Senior Gordon, vitality drink" At this moment, Hayata came over and handed Gordon a bottle of potion.

"Thank you." Gordon smiled at her, and after drinking most of the bottle in one go, he gave the rest to the pork chop.

"Phew, wake up, let me think about it. At first, I wanted to find another exit from the ruins. Later, after Pig Chop mentioned 'line of sight', I thought that might be the key for us to get rid of Lanlong."

"Why? Why do you think that thing can help you get rid of Lanlong? You didn't know what it was at the time, or even if it existed." The professor asked.

Gordon felt that the professor was a little bewildered, but he still replied patiently: "I just think that things that make Lanlong afraid may scare Lanlong away."

"Then why did you change your mind in the end? Pig Chop told me before that it proposed to take away the eyeball to deter Lanlong, but you thought it would further anger Lanlong and rejected the proposal."

Gordon opened his mouth.

That's right, why did his thoughts change 180 degrees?

Gordon tried to remember for a while, and said: "I insisted on facing the skull again, and after facing the eyeball, I no longer have any fear in my heart.

Then I felt that Lanlong should not be more timid than me, so I changed my mind, it should be like this. "

"The anomaly is not after you saw the head, but before."

Speaking of this, the professor paused, "Let me ask in a different direction, do you think that thing is scary? Tell me what you thought when you first saw it."

"Of course it's scary. The worst I've imagined is encountering some kind of ancient monster, but the ancient monster I imagined is just bigger, with fangs and claws, powerful attacks, and amazing momentum.

And that head.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I couldn't imagine a dead thing that could almost drive us crazy."

Speaking of this, Gordon suddenly froze.

His initial idea was to find something that Lanlong was afraid of, and use that thing to frighten Lanlong away.

It can be seen that after seeing the head that is far more terrifying than imagined, Lanlong is not afraid of "a head".

So why did I have such a ridiculous idea in the first place? Why do you think that some kind of 'dead thing' can frighten away an ancient dragon that can easily cause natural disasters?

"I"

The professor glanced at the speechless Gordon, and sighed: "In my opinion, after entering the ruins, your thinking is indeed affected.

This influence lasts until the moment you face the skull and evil eyes again and break the fear.

I have to say, Gordon, you are very brave. Most people may have gone crazy when they saw that thing for the first time.

Even if you are not crazy, you will not have the courage to face it again and get rid of your fear.

But if you didn't do this at the time, you might make more seemingly normal but inexplicable choices in the future. "

"It seems normal, but it's actually an inexplicable choice," Gordon murmured, repeating the professor's words.

In the ruins, my thoughts did undergo several "seems to be no problem" changes.

The first one - find that thing, scare Lanlong back.

Later—ignore the physical warning, it would be too embarrassing to be scared away without seeing that thing.

The last thing—— retreat now, that sense of unknown sight will become a nightmare for a lifetime.

But no matter how you change your mind, there is only one core goal.

——Keep moving forward, to meet 'it'.
