Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 99 Water Beast Girl

"Aha! You can see it!" The bearded old man laughed, "It's built just like us. It's very handsome!"

Gordon didn't know what to say for a moment, so he had to put on a not-so-sincere smile and said, "Very handsome, very handsome."

"Ha! So young man, what do you want to do in Nagulli Village? You are a hunter. Do you want to mine? Dig protective stones? Or customize equipment or something? Nagulli's craftsmanship is the best in the world.

Na!"

It seems to be an old man's habit to laugh before speaking.

He looked at the old man's strong arms covered with burn marks, his dirty blacksmith uniform, and the huge forging hammer that looked like it could crush a flying dragon's head with one blow.

Looking at the statue-like door of the workshop again, Gordon felt that he had guessed the identity of the other party.

I heard from the owner of Minagarde's workshop that the village chief of Naguli Village is a blacksmith whose skills are second to none in the entire continent, and even he is "slightly inferior".

Based on Gordon's understanding of the good-looking old man, this is definitely the highest level of evaluation.

"Excuse me, are you the village chief of Naguli Village?" Gordon bowed politely, "Hello, my name is Gordon, from Kokot Village.

The owner of Minagard's workshop introduced me here, and I plan to stay here for a while to dig out some protective stones and ores. Of course, if you need to hunt monsters, you can always come to me!"

"Oh ha?! Did Minagarde's brother introduce him?" The old man put his hands on his hips and laughed.

Gordon was startled by calling the workshop owner "brother". That old man was from the dragon race. Although he looked like a human being in his fifties or sixties, his actual age might have been over a hundred years ago.

The old man in front of him is older than him? Is he also a dragon?

Gordon's eyes swept over the old man's ears, hands and legs without trace, but the result made him feel confused.

The old man's ears and calves were the same as those of ordinary people, and he was obviously not a dragon. However, the huge palm, which was much thicker than ordinary people, only had four fingers, which seemed to be a characteristic of the dragon.

Keenly noticing Gordon's gaze, the old man didn't pay attention and explained with a smile: "Hey, we are the 'Tulong tribe', the aborigines of the volcanic zone. Most of the residents of Nagulli Village are of the Tulong tribe."

Gordon scratched his head in embarrassment, "Sorry, this is my first time seeing the Earth Dragon Tribe."

The so-called Tulong tribe, like the Dragon tribe, is an ethnic minority in the broad sense of the human race. It is extremely rare in number. The Tulong tribe is generally short in stature but very strong. Everyone is an excellent blacksmith and shipwright.

"It's normal. We, the Tulong tribe, cannot live without magma, so it is difficult to see our tribe in other parts of the mainland." The village chief of the Tulong tribe, who looked rough but was very kind, patiently explained to Gordon.

"That's it." Gordon nodded suddenly.

Immediately, he remembered the business again, "Mr. Village Chief, where is the hunter gathering in your village? I need to register the stronghold first."

"It's the meeting place, haha, then we are too familiar with it. The wine there is delicious. The cold ale and spicy grilled lizard are a perfect combination of works of art!

Hey, I can't help it anymore! I'll take you there now!" The Tulong village chief said, looking like he was about to drool.

You obviously want to go to a bar.

Gordon was still complaining in his heart, but the Tulong village chief had already shouted to the workshop: "Daughter! There is a new little hunter brother! I will take him to the meeting place and tavern to register!"

In less than a second, the same loud female voice came from the workshop, "Haha??! You old man wants to be lazy in broad daylight? You are not allowed to go!"

A petite girl, also wearing a bright yellow blacksmith uniform, rushed out of the workshop angrily.

She is less than 160 centimeters tall, and her long, light-blond hair is tied up with a scarf. The small freckles around the bridge of her nose not only do not ruin her appearance, but add a bit of lively and enthusiastic temperament.

Facing the angry girl, the Tulong village chief shrank his neck and said a little aggrievedly: "But we really want to drink it!"

"The old man's coquettish behavior is disgusting!" The girl waved the forging hammer in her hand, which was bigger than her head, and roared: "I'm going to have a drink at night! The order for the Balu Barre Ship Group has not been completed yet.

Get to work!"

"Then, what should we do, little brother Gordon?" The Tulong village chief looked at Gordon expectantly, hoping that the latter would say a few good words to him.

"I'll take him to register! If this old guy goes, why don't you let me drink until dawn?" The girl interrupted the Tulong village chief's extravagant hopes with stern words.

"Okay, let's go to work," the Tulong village chief said dejectedly: "Brother Gordon, you must try it, iced ale with spicy roasted lizard!"

Gordon nodded blankly and watched the village chief leave.

"It made you laugh."

The girl put the long-handled forging hammer on her shoulder and stretched out a hand to Gordon. Her tone lost the previous irritability and seemed lively and enthusiastic. "Get acquainted, everyone calls me Lily. I will take you to the assembly hall."

Bar."

Gordon stretched out his hand and shook her hand, "Just call me Gordon. I'm really troubling you."

The moment the two held hands together, Gordon raised his eyebrows slightly.

The girl's hands were very powerful, which was not surprising to Gordon. People with insufficient wrist strength would not be able to swing the hammer. What really surprised him was the size of the girl's hand, which was completely within ordinary human standards. There seemed to be five fingers?

Is she a human? Is the daughter of the Tulong village chief a human?

Gordon was a little surprised, but didn't ask any more questions.

No wonder, at the age of the Tulong village chief, he is more than enough to be a young girl's grandfather. The two of them are probably not biological father and daughter, but adopted daughters? Then it is not appropriate to talk too much.

The entire Naguli Village was not that big. A few minutes later, Lily took Gordon to the Hunter Meeting House, which was also the only tavern in the village.

The scale of the Nagulli Village Assembly Hall is naturally incomparable with that of a large city like Minagard, but it is still very lively.

A dozen hunters gathered in the tavern, drinking and chatting. From time to time, the waiters served large glasses of cold ale and sizzling barbecue.

It seems that no matter where the meeting hall or tavern is, the tone is the same.

Gordon smiled to himself.

"Ah! Isn't this the water beast girl!"

"The water beast girl is here too! Haha!"

"Good morning, water beast girl, no, the sun is going down!"

"In Naguli Village, is there any difference between day and night?"

Most of the hunters seemed to be very familiar with Lily and greeted her one after another. The strange thing was that no one called her "Lily", but they all called her "Water Beast Girl".

"Get lost!"

Lily puffed up her cheeks and waved the forging hammer in her hand. Her fierce look reminded Gordon of the light crossbow user Oshura.

"Whoever calls us a water beast again will soak your custom-made equipment in sulfuric acid!" The girl stared and cursed loudly.

The hunters all knew she was joking, but they no longer shamelessly teased the "water beast". The group of people laughed and laughed, and they were very happy.

"Bah!" Looking at the ice ale in everyone's hands, Lily couldn't help but take a sip of saliva.

She smiled at Gordon and said, "The counter is over there. You go and register. Let's have a couple of drinks first!"

Gordon couldn't help laughing when he heard this, so what if they weren't related by blood? From his oral habits to his personality to his love of drinking and fishing, he had never seen a father and daughter who were more alike than him.

"Okay! Once I register, I'll treat you to a drink!"

Ps. In the official information, neither the Tulong village chief nor the village chief’s daughter in MH4G has a name. Let’s give the village chief’s daughter the most common name that is not inconsistent with the name.

And, I always like water beast girls!
