Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 781: The 蛱蛱

The hunters got up very early the next day and declined Madder's breakfast invitation on the pretext of being in a hurry to return.

It is not easy to find the right direction in the vast sea of ​​trees. If you are not familiar with the terrain, it is easy to get lost even with a map.

Qiancao and the others each have their own responsibilities and tasks. Only Xuanxu, who is in the "growing stage" and is a rare idler in the forest, volunteered to take over the job of leading the way.

Because her whole body was wrapped in insect chrysalis and soaked in fluid as thick as egg white, the little girl spoke slurred words, but still couldn't stop talking, grabbing the hunters and asking questions.

She did not hide her curiosity about the outside world.

The aborigines of the Sea of ​​Trees do not have any ancestral precepts or regulations prohibiting going out, but most of them stay within this dark green ocean throughout their lives.

To them, the word "outside world" is like the moon and the bottom of the sea.

Even if you occasionally have the curiosity and impulse to "want to see it", you will never take action in the end.

But Xuxue seems different.

She didn't know if it was because she had been trapped in the chrysalis for too long, but she was full of expectations and even obsession with the concept of "outside".

In the past, she just wanted to complete her emergence and break out of her shell, but now, she wants to go to the more distant "outside".

What does the sea look like? What do snowy mountains, deserts, and big cities look like?

What are sausages, what are cheeses, what are ice creams, what are cakes and puddings, are they really better than thunderworms?

She offered to lead the way as a guide. A large part of her purpose was to satisfy the curiosity that arose during yesterday's chat.

But most of the day passed, and when she arrived at the camp with the hunters, the curiosity in her heart became even more, several times more, and she almost burst the pupa.

Feng Ying was also curious.

She hadn't slept for two consecutive nights, and the dark circles under her eyes were so thick that it felt like she had been punched twice, but this did not prevent her from being as excited as discovering a new world.

She touched the chrysalis from head to toe. If Gordon hadn't brought her back, she would have even had the urge to lick and taste it.

Xuanxu didn't care either. Just as Gordon expected, the two little girls with similar personalities and ages established a friendship at an astonishing speed.

Feng Ying kept describing everything about the outside world to Xuan Xuan. Xuan Xuan listened very seriously. She had not been so happy for a long time since she started pupating.

The only thing she regretted was that the hunters had no plans to stay in the camp for one more day. After the airship completed a series of preparations and inspections before the flight, they would set off.

The Big Boom Dragon, the Moon Swift Dragon, the girl in ancient costumes who reappeared, the purple unicorn, and the awakened Fuyue Dragon, there were too many things to report to the guild, and Hilda was not going to delay any longer.

Before the airship was about to take off, Ancier called over the dazed cricket standing alone at the door of the camp, handed her a small leather bag, and then gave her paper and pen.

"Can you write?"

"Guh-huh."

"You have never left the sea of ​​trees. It is not easy to go to the outside world alone. You must carefully record what I say next."

The whole person was like a chrysalis. The chrysalis, which could not even nod its head, shook its body back and forth.

"The first thing is how to get there. There is a sea between Hong Leong and the mainland. It is too difficult to cross the sea. An airboat is the most convenient. I'll wait for you.

Well, after you look like a person, you can come to the camp here and wait. Occasionally, hunters will come to the sea of ​​​​trees in an airship.

Discuss with them, take a boat ride, and give them 1000z as reward, which is the kind of paper in your wallet. Give ten pieces, don't give more. If they want to exchange something with you for more, don't agree casually. It's most likely Want to lie to you.

What are you doing? Remember it! "

"Uh-huh!" Xuanxuan lowered her head and wrote quickly.

"It would be best if the airship goes directly to East Doruma. If not, you have to transfer to the airship.

As for how to transfer, it's a bit complicated. In short, after you arrive in the town, ask about the Sterling Chamber of Commerce and go to the door. There is a pocket watch in your bag. Show that to the person in charge of the local chamber of commerce. They will help you and arrange food and accommodation. .

After arriving in East Doruma, also go to the Sterling Chamber of Commerce. You should see a woman named Jessica. That is my sister. She will arrange the follow-up matters.

Still have questions? "

"What is the Gulu paper?"

Under the strange gazes of Gordon and others, Anxier explained the use of the money in detail. After confirming that Xuanxu had remembered everything and there were no other questions, he dusted his hands and asked her to leave.

Xuanxuan carefully put the "travel guide" into the small leather bag containing the money, and then held the small leather bag in her arms.

That is the crack that tears open the pupa shell called "Sea of ​​Trees".

The depression of parting with her new friends was washed away, and her mood became particularly bright. She jumped up and waved and said goodbye to everyone.

This should be a cute scene, but it looks particularly weird under the appearance of the chrysalis man.

Amid the murmuring farewells, the airship slowly rose into the sky.

When the camp became as big as a plate, and the crickets still waving in the camp were only as big as beans, Feng Ying, Gordon Hayata and the others crowded in front of Anshir.

"There's something wrong with you." Gordon looked Ancil up and down, "Do you really like that kid?"

"You are such a ghost, Xuanxu is one year younger than me." Feng Ying glared angrily.

Hayata's eyes were also indescribably subtle, "Herta, she"

"Pervert! Pervert! Lolita!" Gail also joined in the fun from a distance and howled.

Anxier's face turned black, "What a mess, what kind of non-burnable garbage is in your mind?"

"To be honest, this is the first time I've seen you be so patient with someone."

Gordon crossed his arms, "You prepared travel expenses, arranged itinerary, and gave her a pocket watch that represents her identity so that she can borrow the convenience of Sterling Chamber of Commerce. Do you really have no other thoughts?"

Anxier looked empty, "Putting aside other things, with her appearance of a pupa, could I be attracted to her?"

"Scumbag speak!" Feng Ying shouted.

Gordon choked.

Anxier's words were a bit direct, but also quite realistic.

If you say that the two have been together for many years, it is possible that they are attracted by each other's personality, but Anxier and Xixi have only known each other for a day, and it is obviously impossible for them to be familiar with each other to that extent.

In just one day, with not frequent contacts, it is not easy for people to like a guy who does not look like a human.

Hayata was also convinced by this reason. She hesitated, "So you are doing this to repay a favor?"

"Almost." An Xier nodded, "I was knocked unconscious by the impact of the Fuyue Dragon. If it were not for the fact that the Spider dragged me into the cave where she was basking in the moonlight, I would have died in the belly of the Fuyue Dragon.

After the Fuyue Dragon left, she dragged me through the jungle and took me back to the forest for treatment. It is reasonable for me to repay this life-saving favor, right?"

"Well, it is true." Gordon scratched his chin.

Thinking of it this way, compared with An Xier's life, the travel expenses and arrangements even seem a little too light. If An Xier's parents and sister knew about this, I don't know how they would thank them.

Feng Ying smacked her lips. She felt very sorry that she had lost the reason to condemn An Xier.

But her mind was also jumping fast, and she thought of something else, "By the way, how long will it take for the pupa to complete its metamorphosis?

I wonder what she will look like after she breaks out of the pupa, she should be very cute, right? A butterfly or something like that"

"Maybe a beetle or a moth." An Xier replied casually.

"Shut up!"

P.S. Gordon's personality and setting make it impossible for a Shura scene to appear, but An Xier might
