Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 776 The Person in the Pupa

"Bang——"

An Xier woke up from his coma after hitting something hard on the back of his head, maybe a stone or a tree root protruding from the ground.

His mind was a little dazed.

His memory was still stuck on the Fuyue Dragon crashing into the dense forest like a giant meteorite. He was very lucky not to be hit directly, but he was also blown away by the impact.

He fell to the ground and then lost consciousness until now.

He blinked his eyelids twice, and his mind gradually became clear.

He felt the state of his body, and his whole body was in great pain. His bones were not broken but might be cracked, and his internal organs were also injured.

But at least he survived, right?

So, what is the situation now?

The tree canopy above his head was moving slowly, no, it was himself who was moving. He was lying on a huge leaf, being dragged forward by something.

An Xier tried to look up and look forward.

His pupils were shaking!

What the hell was that thing? !

The one who was dragging him forward was a human? An upright bipedal creature?

It was like a combination of a person and a pupa. Large pieces of silk and a hardened translucent giant pupa made up the main part of her body.

The head and torso were connected together, forming a huge, orange-red, sticky spindle-shaped pupa. The limbs protruded from the pupa, which were also wrapped in sticky silk and chitinous shells.

The pupa seemed to be filled with semi-fluid liquid. Every time this "pupa man" took a step, a strange "gurgling" sound of liquid squeezing would be heard from his body.

An Xier stared with his eyes wide open, and the string of reason in his mind almost broke directly.

He had always been an atheist, and he didn't believe in heaven or the underworld, but at this moment he couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

Apart from the underworld, where else could the creator create such a deformed creature? !

As if he had noticed An Xier's movements or gaze, the pupa man stopped and turned to face him.

"Guji. Are you awake, Guru?"

The voice from the pupa was actually a young woman's, but the voice was dull and vague, as if the head was stuffed into glue and speaking, and every few words would bring out a series of gurgling bubbles.

Anxier stared at the other party in a daze.

The pupa continued: "Are you hurt? Guru, I'll be there soon."

Common language? No, it's different from the human language commonly used in the Old World. The tone and grammar seem to be different, but it can still be understood.

"Gulu, are you hungry? Gulu?"

Being "stared" by the two rows of things on the other party's "face" that were not sure whether they were eyes or pores, Anxier swallowed his saliva subconsciously.

This seemed to make the other party misunderstand. The pupa man rummaged through his body and took out a fat white worm that was bigger than a fist and handed it to Anxier.

The corner of Anxier's mouth twitched fiercely.

He recognized this thing-the endurance thunderworm.

It is not distributed in the Old World, but it is said that it is everywhere in the New World. I didn't expect that it is also here in Fenglong.

Sometimes merchants collect it and send it to Dongdoruma as "New World Specialty Food" or "New World Magic Pet". There are always curious people willing to pay to try it.

Gordon bought it and tried it. According to that guy, it tastes sticky and unexpectedly fills the stomach.

But he didn't want to try it at all. He has a "weakness" that almost no one knows - he hates this kind of fleshy worm the most, disgusting!

Seeing Anxier staring blankly at the portable lunch in his hand, but not reaching out, the pupa man thought the former was being polite, so he directly put the endurance thunderworm on Anxier's stomach and continued to drag him forward.

Looking at the fat worm that slowly crawled from his stomach to his chest, Anxier felt that his hair was about to stand up.

He wanted to throw this thing away immediately, but considering that it might anger the pupa man, he had to bite the bullet and endure it.

The situation is unclear at the moment. His physical condition is extremely poor. His weapon, Shi Yu, is also lost. It is obviously not a wise choice to rashly offend this strange-looking but harmless pupa man.

Since the other party can communicate and does not seem to have any bad intentions, proper communication is necessary.

"Ahem, this lady? Let me get down and walk by myself." An Xier called out to the pupa man who was trying to drag the leaves under him, "My injury should not be that serious."

"Gu Ji, are you okay?"

"It should be fine."

An Xier sat up slowly, put the endurance thunderworm aside calmly, and then slowly stood up.

The bones of both legs are fine, the ribs may be fractured, and the left shoulder is more seriously injured. The whole shoulder is swollen. It hurts to move the arm. The joint may be dislocated.

After pressing the left shoulder with his right hand for a while, after roughly confirming the situation, An Xier staggered to a big tree, found a suitable angle, and hit it hard.

After a crisp "click", the joint was reset.

"Gurgle." The pupa man clapped his hands, as if to congratulate him?

Gritting his teeth and enduring the severe pain of joint reset, Anxier took off his helmet, took out a secret medicine and swallowed it, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and nodded to the pupa man.

"Sorry, I've been waiting for a long time."

"What! Gurgle"

When he took out the secret medicine just now, Anxier simply checked that his waist bag had not been touched. He thought about it and took out a piece of food to hand to the other party.

Perhaps exchanging food is a way to show friendship?

The pupa man was stunned for a moment, took the food and looked at it for a few seconds, but did not eat it immediately, but put it away.

The effect of the secret medicine was as trustworthy as ever. In just a short while, the pain in his body had been reduced a lot, at least low-intensity walking was no problem.

But if he wanted to really recover, he would probably have to recuperate for a while.

"Can we walk?"

"Where are we going now?" Anxier followed the pupa man's footsteps and asked at the same time.

The pupa man replied in a relaxed tone, "To the forest."

"My companions may be looking for me. Can you take me back to the ruins?" Anxier asked tentatively.

"Guji. No, the mountain god has awakened, the tower is too dangerous, guji. Don't get close to it, puji"

Anxier hesitated, he wanted to say goodbye and leave directly, but he could not confirm his current location at all. He only knew that he should still be in the Batu Batum Sea of ​​Trees.

Without knowing the direction, without a map, without weapons, and with injuries on his body, it was tantamount to dreaming to find the right direction in this vast sea of ​​trees covering millions of square kilometers.

Instead of wandering around like a headless fly, it is better to follow this guy who seems to be an aboriginal to the so-called "forest" to have a look.

From being dragged all the way to following one after the other, Anxier silently observed the pupa man who was a few steps ahead of him.

The other party was not tall, or even short. Even if the forked corner on the top of the giant pupa was counted, it was only about 160 cm.

After a period of observation, he was basically sure that the other party was a human being, and not too old.

Being able to communicate with each other and having a young girl's voice was one aspect.

The more critical evidence was that when they passed the area with sunlight in the forest, the columnar sunlight illuminated the giant pupa. Through the translucent pupa shell and effusion, Anxier vaguely saw the slender human figure wrapped inside the giant pupa.

This reminded him of what Hilda said about the special biological technology mastered by the aboriginals of the sea of ​​trees.

If the pupa shells, insect silk, and even the egg white-like mucus in the giant pupa are uniformly understood as some kind of special biological armor, then everything can be explained.
