Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 777 Anxier Was Captured!

After a simple communication to confirm goodwill, Anxier shut up and did not communicate too much with the mysterious pupa man.

Even though the latter seemed to be quite lively and talkative.

After all, this was in the sea of ​​trees full of dangers. Even under an inconspicuous fallen leaf, there might be deadly snakes and poisonous insects lurking. One must be extremely careful when walking.

However, what Anxier did not know was that his caution was quite interesting in the eyes of the pupa man.

It was just like a baby who had just learned how to walk, wobbling.

"Hululu."

There was a bubbling sound from the huge pupa. Anxier looked up at her, but did not realize that she was laughing.

They walked in the forest for a long time.

If you count the distance he was dragged when he was unconscious before, Anxier could not tell how far he was from the ancient tower ruins and the camp.

Gordon and the others must be crazy looking for it, right?

Unfortunately, the flare was on Liefeng, and there was no way to send a signal to notify his companions.

The pupa man walking in front suddenly stopped and waved his hand towards the height. Anxier, who was following closely, had to temporarily put aside his worries and looked up.

A figure jumped down from the top of a giant tree canopy that was at least 40 to 50 meters high.

It was almost impossible for humans to survive a fall from such a height, but the man's hands and feet seemed to be able to stick to the tree trunks and branches. He slowed down several times, and finally hooked the vines with a strange long stick in his hand and swung, landing lightly in front of them.

Anxier narrowed his eyes slightly.

The person who came was obviously the companion of the guy in front. He thought it was another weird-looking pupa man, but it wasn't.

It was a young woman who looked quite normal.

She was wearing, or rather wrapped in, a very strange light armor.

The reason why I said it was weird was not because of the shape of the armor. Compared with the mixed style of a certain cat-headed hunter, the style of the armor of the person who came was even pleasing to the eye.

The abnormality was the material of the armor.

Except for the inner armor that is close to the skin and seems to be made of some kind of animal leather, the whole set of armor is made of various "creatures" in the forest.

The main material of the wrist armor, helmet, skirt armor, and shin armor seems to be some special leaves. I don't know if it is strong or not, but at least it looks quite light.

The wrist armor and shin armor are covered with thick white slime mold. The reason why she can use the nearly vertical tree trunk to slow down is probably because of the stickiness of these slime molds.

The chest armor is the strangest. It can't even be called "armor", but layers of honeycombs.

Many alien bees as long as fingers go in and out of the honeycomb armor, as if they have reached some kind of wonderful symbiotic relationship with the equipment owner.

While An Xier was looking at it, a bee landed on the woman's orange-red bangs. She pursed her lips and blew a breath to blow the bee away.

Then she shook the long stick full of holes in her hand, and the bees flying around her suddenly seemed to have received some kind of signal and obediently drilled into the honeycomb.

Anxier raised his eyebrows, and the scene in front of him reminded him of the insect stick.

"Stranger?" The young woman with dazzling orange hair asked.

Anxier nodded and did not deny it.

The young woman did not have any special reaction to this. She raised her chin to greet Anxier, and then looked at the pupa man.

"Last night was the full moon night, why didn't you molt? Failed?"

"I went to the tower, and the mountain god was angry. I didn't dare to crawl out from the ground. I didn't get enough moonlight." After saying this in a sullen manner, she pointed at Anxier again, "Gululu, he was unconscious there, and he brought him back."

"The mountain god appeared? Angry?!" The young woman widened her eyes.

"Gulu, then I went back, and was woken up by the noise. It seemed that there was a rumbling in the tower at night." The pupa man spread his hands.

Suddenly remembering something, the young woman looked at Anxier, "You are a hunter of outsiders? Are you hunting the mountain gods?!"

Due to the different grammar, the two people's words sounded a bit confusing to Anxier, but it was not too difficult to understand.

The "mountain god" they mentioned was obviously the Fuyue Dragon.

Anxier shook his head decisively, "Fuyue Dragon, oh, it should be the mountain god you mentioned, that is not our target.

We were invited by a mysterious person to hunt the Dahong Dragon and the Yuexun Dragon. The hunt was successful, but the noise during the battle woke up the Fuyue Dragon."

"Mysterious person? Dahong Dragon? Yuexun Dragon?" The two were puzzled.

They understood the rest of Anxier's words, but they didn't understand these terms.

Anxier briefly talked about the girl in ancient costumes and described the characteristics of the Dahong Dragon and the Yuexun Dragon.

The girl in the pupa was a little excited after hearing this, "You guys solved the invisible beast in the fog?! That's awesome, we can go there and bask in the moonlight and metamorphose without any worries!"

The young woman was more concerned about the "girl in ancient costumes", "She sounds like a servant of the gods. This news needs to be brought back to the forest. You are an awesome foreign hunter. Can you go back with us?"

An Xier was helpless, "We have been brought here. Let's go. I hope it won't take too long. My companions should be looking for me."

"Okay, we can send someone to help you find your companions." The young woman shook her head and motioned An Xier to follow. Suddenly she remembered that she hadn't introduced herself yet, so she added, "By the way, my name is Qiancao."

"Anxier." Anxier also gave her name out of politeness.

The girl wrapped in the huge pupa raised her hand, "Gulu Gulu Guji!"

Although he knew that this guy was probably also reporting his name, the series of bubbling sounds made him unable to hear what the former said.

"She's called." Qiancao introduced the girl who was muffled in the insect pupa and couldn't speak clearly.

After thinking for a while, she briefly explained, "You people outside may not have seen it. The one on the body of the pupa is a parasitic pupa, which takes one or two years to mature.

After molting, it will become a special symbiotic protective gear, but before molting, it has no combat ability. The pupa often goes to the moon to bask in the sun."

The girl named pupa made a heart shape to Anxier. Unfortunately, the disgusting appearance of the pupa made her movements completely unlovable.

Anxier didn't know what expression to make for a moment.

"You guys are really fighting hard."

Near the ruins of the ancient tower.

Fuyuelong flew back to the ancient tower at dawn, perhaps because it was full and went back to sleep.

After hiding in the dense forest for several hours, Gordon and his companions returned to the area around the devoured forest and searched bit by bit.

The main force of the search was Zhuchop and Xianglan, who had a keen sense of smell. Nanasi was sent by Gordon to the camp to deliver the message, so that Fengying and Gene would not run away without waiting for their news.

"Meow!"

Xianglan found something, ran a few steps over, and lay on a pile of loose soil to dig.

Gordon and his companions also ran over and saw Xianglan digging out Anxier's fierce knife [Shiyu] from the pile of soil.

The expression of expectation froze on his face.

"Will he be buried deeper?" Gordon's voice was a little dry.

Xianglan shook her head, "It's unlikely, meow, the soil below is not loose soil meow."

"Let's dig a little deeper." Gordon seemed not to hear, slinging the fierce moment [Shiyu] behind him, half-knelt down, and continued to dig.

Hayata nodded and followed Gordon to dig the soil.

"Then dig it, this is the only clue so far!" Gale also took off the helmet that was a little in the way and squatted down.

Hilda sighed and said nothing, just stood aside with a bow to guard them.

As the pit on the ground got deeper and deeper, Gordon and his friends' hearts became heavier.

"Meow! Come here meow! I found something meow!" Suddenly, a shout came from the distance.

Gordon jumped up and ran over there, and Hayata and the others hurriedly caught up.

"What did you find?!" Gordon asked loudly before he could run to the front of the pig.

There was also a big pit in front of Zhuchop. The pit mouth was not very wide, about one meter, but the pit was quite deep. An adult male might not be able to get his head out even if he jumped in.

Zhuchop lay on the pit mouth and sniffed around, "There is the smell of Anxiel in it, meow. He should have stayed in the pit for a while, meow. There is also another smell, meow, it feels like some kind of insect meow?"

Hayata made a reasonable analysis, "Is there an unknown giant insect lurking underground, dragging Anxiel into the pit and helping him avoid the swallowing of the floating Yuelong?"

"And the insect monster did not attack him. There is no blood in the pit, and there are no signs of struggle." Gordon stared at the inner wall of the deep pit, and his tone became increasingly excited.

Gale said in a gloomy tone: "I remember that shadow spiders would ambush their prey, paralyze them with their poisonous claws, and then bring them back to their nests, where they would store them as a breeding ground for incubation, and then pierce their genitals into the prey's body to lay eggs."

Gordon: "."

"Ahem, of course, it should be. It's definitely not a shadow spider! Shadow spiders are not insects, right? Well, and this pit is too small, the shadow spider can't get in!" Gale hurried to make amends.

Zhu Chop's voice was a little shaky, "Shh, the smell is extending over there, meow, and there are these dragging traces, meow, the insect monster dragged Ansil away from here and went deep into the forest meow!"

Gordon's face turned green, "Chase it!"
