Chapter 1208 Recovery

Whether to terminate the research on ancient crystals, or even further, whether to return the crystal to the original ruins and seal it permanently.

This caused some controversy among the scholars of the investigation team.

Most of the scholars who held opposing opinions were younger scholars.

They were full of curiosity about everything, were enterprising and energetic.

The investigation team had won a great victory in several conflicts with ancient dragons, which made them full of confidence.

In their opinion, if the purple monster really appeared, it would be reasonable to respond cautiously.

But at the moment, just for an illusory conjecture, it was really a bit far-fetched to give up the research on some ancient technology that could change the world.

And a group of experienced scholars, including the leader of the research class and the director of the Institute of Ecology, mostly stood on the side of approval.

There are too many mysteries in this world waiting for them to understand and explore, and there is no need to drill into this project with real risks.

Some knowledge, especially the knowledge named "taboo", may represent danger by its existence itself.

In the end, the commander-in-chief listened to the conservatives and stopped the research.

Arrange a team of hunters to escort Alva and others to return the mysterious ancient crystal to the stone chamber of the underground ruins.

And use local materials to block the entrance and exit of the ruins with stones to prevent small creatures such as scale strikers from entering the ruins and accidentally touching the crystal.

This matter has come to a temporary end.

In recent days, Hayata has had a very hard time.

She has been bored at home for almost a year, and she can't wait to return to the hunting ground with her partners to stretch her muscles.

However, now she has an additional bond that she can't let go.

During this period, she went to the training ground to practice sword, and she always took her daughter with her.

When practicing sword, she stuffed the child to Gordon or Zhucha Xianglan to take care of it, and she had to rush to breastfeed the baby during the break.

Gordon was so tired for her.

Whether it was the job of a high-ranking hunter or her mother's duties, she didn't want to give up, and could only put the pressure on herself.

But the breastfeeding period of a baby is not something that can be completed in one or two months. According to "some experienced person", it should be at least more than half a year, and it would be best if it could last for more than a year.

After that, it can be gradually replaced with complementary food.

This is a bit unrealistic.

The rehabilitation training in the past one or two months is fine, but when the mission is officially carried out later, will she take the child to the hunting ground to feed?

No one with a strong nerve would do such a thing.

And in order to feed the child, she would stay in the base for another year or two, and her hard-trained martial arts might really be wasted.

Helplessly, she finally asked the commander-in-chief for help and found the wife of a craftsman in the investigation team.

The other party was also in the breastfeeding period, and the child was about to be weaned, so she asked her to be a wet nurse, and finally solved the problem.

After two months of restorative training, Hayata's physical condition barely recovered to 70% or 80% of her pre-pregnancy state.

To fully recover, it is impossible to rely on chopping wood stakes in the training ground.

So, she began to accept tasks frequently.

From the Scratching Bird Sand Dragon, to the Wind Drifting Dragon, the Jaw Dragon, to the Fire Dragon, the Horned Dragon, some dangerous subspecies, and even the Golden Lion

As the monsters she challenged became stronger and stronger, her condition was gradually recovering.

Not only her physical fitness, but more importantly her mental state, combat awareness, and the intuition that became dull during a long rest, etc., all gradually returned.

But there was still a sense of awkwardness that was a little short.

Hayata had a feeling that she needed a battle that she had to fight with all her might to win, to push herself to the limit.

Only in this way could she break through the bottleneck that seemed to exist.

By then, her strength might not only return to the peak, but also have the opportunity to go to the next level.

As for what kind of monster could bring her such a battle, she herself couldn't tell.

Maybe it was an ancient dragon? Find an ancient dragon to fight alone?

This might be a way, but not to mention that Gordon would not agree, the guy in front of him was stuck for her.

Behind the task counter, Naili stared at Hayata who was flipping through the task sheet again and again, and said helplessly:

"My dear sister, there is really no task more difficult than hunting the golden lion!

If you want to hone your sword skills, why not take a look at this task of hunting the dragon? Didn't you always like to find the dragon-slaying house to cut it?"

After saying this, Naili puffed her lips and muttered softly, "Mumu is so pitiful. If this goes on, she will almost treat the nanny as her biological mother!"

"."

Hayata looked embarrassed.

In the past few months, she has spent more time in various hunting grounds than with her daughter.

This time, in order to track a golden lion, she stayed in the wild for more than half a month. When she came back, she stopped breastfeeding. Her daughter nuzzled in her arms for a long time, and then turned around and cried to find the nanny to hug her.

Nah.

After hearing her sister's last sentence, she suddenly figured it out.

For hunters of their level, the kind of battles struggling on the edge of life and death are rare.

My strength has almost recovered, so there is no need to seek a breakthrough.

Besides, autumn is coming, and the breeding season is approaching. According to convention, many unnecessary hunting activities will be suspended, so the number of tasks will be relatively small.

Why not take this time to spend time with my daughter?

"You're right, I'll go back first, and we'll talk later!"

Hayata put down the task form in his hand and hurriedly left the Star Ship Club.

Nari leaned out from behind the counter, looked at the direction her sister left, and nodded with satisfaction.

While sorting out the forms on the counter, she smiled complacently, "Brother-in-law, this thank-you gift can't be less~!"

Hayata's guilt made her almost run all the way back home.

When she opened the door, she saw Gordon holding his daughter with both hands, raising her up to a position close to the ceiling, and then suddenly lowered his hands, letting his daughter fall to a position close to the ground before stopping.

Then it went on and on.

The sudden rise and free fall were very exciting, and little Muti giggled non-stop.

Looking at this scene, Hayata was stunned for two seconds, then raised her eyebrows and screamed, "What are you doing?!!"

Gordon, who was facing the door with his back, was frightened and trembled, and almost didn't throw his daughter out. After stabilizing himself in a hurry, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Muti laughed even more happily, while Hayata was almost scared out of her wits.

Reaching out to grab his daughter back into his arms and hugging her tightly, Hayata, who was rarely angry, pointed at Gordon's nose and cursed.

Gordon laughed dryly and didn't dare to say anything back. To be honest, when his daughter almost slipped out of his hand, he also felt the stimulation of cardiac arrest.

A few months old baby can easily cry because of a loud noise.

But Muti seemed to never be afraid. He grabbed the dark cloak of Hayata's [Death Claw] suit and jumped around, laughing happily.

Hayata, who was more likely to vent his fear than his anger, pointed at Gordon and cursed him, then carefully put his daughter on the bed.

Then he began to take off his armor and change into casual clothes.

Gordon wanted to hug his daughter, but Hayata glared back fiercely.

"You are not allowed to touch the baby for three days!"

After glaring at Gordon again, Hayata gently picked up her daughter and pushed the door open.

Ps.

Maybe you feel that the timeline has been jumping too frequently recently?

In fact, it is mainly to jump the time between the MHW main body and the Icefield DLC. In my understanding, there should be a little time interval, after all, there are several DLCs (although it is not clearly stated in the game)

By the way, you can also skip Hayata's pregnancy, so that the lifting of the Icefield can be opened almost.

By the way, the current timeline is fifteen years after the start of the plot of this book.

At this time, Gordon is 31, Ansir is 32, Hayata is 29, and Fengying is 24 (all calculated by age)
