Chapter 458: Monster or Hunter

…………

"Wood!" A crisp and sweet voice sounded outside the small courtyard. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"What are you doing here again?" Seeing Lu Yingying's robe dressed as a scrivener, Lu Xiu's face instantly darkened, "Scrivener Lu will kill me." ”

The trainees were honing their hunting skills in the courtyard, and the dragonman was wearing only a light training uniform on his upper body, and his body was showing off in the afternoon sun. The girl's heart fluttered when she saw it, and she bit the tip of her tongue lightly before coming back to her senses.

"You saved my life, and as a well-informed scribe, of course people have to thank you." Lu Yingying tilted her head, "I made soup, which is blood-replenishing, and it will probably be of some use to you." Would you like to try it? ”

Xiaolongren put the heavy sword in his hand on the weapon rack and patted his head helplessly: "If you calculate it this way, you saved the two of us in the shipwreck, I think it should have been leveled a long time ago." ”

"One yard to one yard." The girl walked into the courtyard freely, and put the soup pot in her hand on the stone platform in the courtyard, "The body is skinned, and the parents are received, if it weren't for your blood, I would probably have died in the realm of Fengxiang Dragon Dragon." I'm not a hunter, so I can't save you again, so I'll see what I can do. ”

"How many have you been here...... Five times, right? Lu Xiu picked up the towel and wiped the sweat on his head indiscriminately, and said in embarrassment, "My recovery ability is strong, even if I shed half of my body blood at the challenge sacrifice, it has been half a month, and I should have raised it a long time ago." You see, my injuries are all clean, and I don't need to send these things anymore......"

"So, you're not welcome to me?" Hearing the refusal in the young man's words, the girl's face sank, and her mouth pursed high.

"Of course not!" The trainee hurriedly waved his hand, "It's just that your itinerary Lu Shushu has always seen it, and he once sent me a letter, what it said...... Not very friendly. ”

Morin had also warned Lu Xiu not to have too much to do with the scrivener community, especially at the critical time when the challenge was over. The Hunter Squad is on the brink of internal and external difficulties, and any rash move could complicate an already complex situation.

"My dad only talks about me, and doesn't really care about me." The little scribe opened the soup pot without paying attention, and a small puff of hot mist with aroma wafted out of it.

"Hmm...... What is it made of? The incense mist drifted to the tip of the hunter's nose, and Lu Xiu's Adam's apple couldn't help but move up and down.

"Red dates, strange bird eggs or something, add some blue mushrooms to it, I'm worried that the taste will be a little pungent." Seeing the young man's brows, Lu Yingying also smiled slightly.

Lu Xiu didn't finish listening, after a morning of exercise, he really wanted to eat something. The hunter picked up the spoon, lightly scooped it, and eagerly put it in his mouth.

"Be careful to bite your tongue......" the girl grinned, and quietly watched the hunter drink a few spoonfuls before she said slowly, "I have already read your commission report...... It's better that the hunters in the whole city have already seen it. I just want you and your companions to know that I've ever been involved in it and will never question its authenticity. No matter how many people doubt you, I will be on your side. ”

"Now even ourselves, when we see that report, we have some suspicions that it is a forgery." Lu Xiu stopped the spoon in his hand and said with a self-deprecating smile.

"There must be a way to prove your experience." The scrivener clenched her fists in the sleeves of her robes, "Although I am not a monster scrivener, you have brought back so many hunting materials, as well as hunting traces confirmed by the sweeping airship, there will always be evidence to prove your report." She made up her mind, "Why don't I go and ask Daddy, although he is very stubborn, he is also more truthful than anyone else, and he will definitely return the truth to the hunters of Golden Feather City." ”

"Nope." Lu Xiu shook his head, "My companions, it is no longer to the extent that you can simply seek the truth to clear your suspicions. I don't have the authority and I don't want you to be involved in this. He was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "In a few days, I will be going to do my promotion commission, maybe a week, maybe three weeks, I won't stay in this courtyard, and you won't come again." ”

"You're going hunting again?" Lu Yingying's eyes lit up, "Take me with you!" ”

…………

Twilight was approaching, and the little scribe Lu Yingying had been waiting at the camp gate for several hours. The girl changed her position again in boredom, and leaned against the hard wooden camp gate. She raised her eyebrows, sat down against the doorpost, and sighed softly.

Hearing the news of Lu Xiu's disappearance, the girl also fidgeted in the tent. The little scribe even packed his bags and walked to the pass into the trade route on foot, but under the strange gaze of many hunters guarding the pass, he had to turn around and walk back. Although the girl's reserve made her heart burn, she still forcibly suppressed it, and finally chose to guard this place not far away, waiting for the return of the hunter.

Looking at the cloudless sky, the shallow knife marks on the girl's arm burned almost imperceptibly, she subconsciously covered her arm, but the corners of her mouth were gently raised.

"He's back...... I knew it! Lu Yingying stood up, quickly patted the dirt on her robe, carefully tucked back a small lock of hair that had protruded from the brim of her hat, and looked into the distance on the stone road outside the barracks.

The four herbivorous dragons were swaying along the road, and even if some of the supplies were discarded, the weight of the six men could not be easily carried by four packs alone. The hunters stopped and stopped along the way, and finally made it back to safety before nightfall.

"Miss Lu!" Feng Chen and Lu Xiu sat on the back of the same herbivorous dragon, and the little Orion held on to his companion's body with one hand, looking very struggling, "Help, help me carry him down." ”

"No...... No. The dragonman's face flushed, and he waved his hand weakly, "I can do it myself, as long as I watch my step...... Yes! ”

The one-star hunter struggled on one leg and staggered to hold on to the herbivorous dragon beside him. Lu Yingying hurriedly ran forward and grabbed one of the young man's arms. The weight of the tall hunter was, of course, much heavier than that of the girl, which made the little scrivener's face flush.

The bandaged right leg was pulled by the action of landing on the ground, causing Lu Xiu's face to distort for a while. Seeing the dragon man in such a state, the little scholar's already happy face suddenly drooped: "What's wrong with you?" …… Hurt again? ”

"It's okay, he's fine." Xiong Fuji rolled over and landed on the ground, picked up Lu Xiu, who was in a daze on the girl's shoulder, but slapped him heavily on the back, "This guy's recovery ability is as strong as a monster, as long as he is not dead, he will be alive in two days." ”

"Big Bear!" Jia Xiao took the herbivorous dragon's halter and quietly made a color gesture towards his companion, his eyes skimming the red circles of the little scholar. Xiong Buji doubted, smiled knowingly, and stopped making a sound.

The process of recovering Lu Xiu did not have too many twists and turns, under the leadership of the two-star hunter Feng Bai, everyone advanced more than ten kilometers along the original territory of the Sharon King, and then saw the sleeping dragonman at the bottom of a deserted sand dune.

The one-star hunter who was pushed awake in ignorance still seemed a little sluggish. Excessive overdrawing of his blood, coupled with fighting and injuries, made him sleep in the scorching sun of the sand sea for half a day. Fortunately, Xiao Sharon is heading towards the newly occupied territory, and the red armor beast does not have the temperament to take the initiative to attack, and the coercion in the bloodline of the dragon man is enough to scare off most of the deadly beetles in a coma, which does not let the boy lose his life in his sleep.

Later, Feng Chen and Maomao brought four herbivorous dragons, and the small hunting group could not afford to hire an airship, so they could only put the injured on the monster's back and swayed all the way.

"Don't worry, Miss Lu." Qin Shuiyu handed the reins in his hand to Jia Xiao, "Lu Xiu's injury is fine, he is just a little tired." Eat something, sleep in, and be able to deliver the mission with us tomorrow. She smiled reassuringly at the girl, "You know what, this guy is our hero!" It was he who single-handedly led away a full twenty small salons, and we had the opportunity to carry out the follow-up operations entrusted to us. This time, the commission remuneration must have an additional share from him. ”

Lu Yingying shrank her head, holding on to the unbearable in her heart, and still circled around the dragon man, confirming that there was only one external injury to her thigh on her body, and she was completely relieved.

Letting his body be carried by his two companions towards the camp, Lu Xiu finally cheered up a little. He turned around and said apologetically to the little scrivener, who was still full of grievances, "I'm sorry......"

"What are you talking about......" The girl's nose twitched, the wound on her arm was uncontrollably painful, and even the blood all over her body was faintly boiling at the moment when her eyes met. She avoided the hunter's gaze, "You're so powerful...... I don't care if you live or die...... Wood! ”

"Okay, okay, if they are there, Lu Xiu will definitely recover quickly." The little head of the regiment caged Lu Yingying to his side, "I have returned to Locklac, there is no need to worry." It's you...... Are we still used to living in the hunter camp these days since we left? Did anything happen? ”

"Uh-huh." The little scribe sniffed and shook his head heavily, "It's not uncustomary, although Master Tresor has his own temporary workshop to live in, he will also come to the camp from time to time to take care of me, it is better to cause trouble for everyone." She pursed her lips, "But two days ago, a hunter did come to visit, saying that he was looking for you. ”

"Who is it?" Qin Shui Yu was a little surprised.

"It's the boy in white I've seen on an airship." Lu Yingying said, "He said...... Come and join your hunt. ”

…………

"Drink this bowl of soup and sleep again." Feng Chen tied the last knot in the newly changed bandages of his fellow villagers, "No matter how hard the bed board in the camp is, it is still much stronger than the sand sea. ”

"Sorry for worrying everyone." Lu Xiu took a sip of the soup bowl and put it on the table next to him, "I wanted to catch up with the team after dawn, but I didn't expect to sleep for so long." I also want you to return to the sand sea in your regular clothes - speaking of which, what happened to your hunting costume? Recovered by Master Tresor? ”

"Ah...... Hehe," Feng Chen smiled awkwardly, "When you wake up, I'll tell you about it." He took the quilt from Xiong Bu's second-hand, avoided the wound, and carefully covered Lu Xiu, "You are lucky, the density of monsters in the sand sea is much higher than that of the swamp, and you didn't even encounter a dog dragon when you were sleeping." ”

"Looks like I'm lucky." Lu Xiu smiled, but his face suddenly changed.

In the young man's mind, a scene of a sea of sand under the night flashed rapidly, and the little dragon man hid behind the sand dunes, watching several figures pacing not far away. Those figures were blurred in the moonlight, reflected in Lu Xiu's mind, as vague and fleeting as drunken memories. He blinked vigorously, trying to make his memory clear, but what came out of the moonlight suddenly looked like a hunter, and suddenly turned into a monster again, shadowy and amorphous.

"Wait." Xiaolongren supported the bed board with both hands, leaned up, and forcibly lifted his spirit, "Dust boy, you read a lot of books, is there such a ...... in the monster illustrated book?" A monster that looks like a human? ”

"What?" Xiong Buer's eyes looked at his companion lying on the bed strangely, and his big hand reached out to Lu Xiu's forehead to measure the temperature, "You won't sleep in the sea of sand until you get heat stroke, right?" ”

"I'm not sure, but after last night's fight, I may have been exposed to something, but I can't remember it." The one-star hunter shook his head, "Probably too tired, I can't even tell if the other party is a monster or a hunter." ”

"I was forced by Instructor Anfei to read so many illustrated books, and I haven't seen a monster like that, if it looks like a human, it should be classified as an orc." Feng Chen groaned for a while, but replied seriously.

"Where are there any active orcs in the sea of sand?" Nie Xiaoyang denied, "It should just be Lu Xiu's dazzle, you should have to pay a lot of price to get rid of those salons, and it is normal to be so tired that you can see it wrong." ”

Lu Xiu rolled his eyes and reluctantly agreed with his companion's answer: "That's right, it should just be an ordinary hunter passing by." At that time, my red pupils had not been over for long, and perhaps it was the blood that affected my judgment. The boy shook his head, as if this would make the flashing memories disappear, "It's just a pity that I didn't have contact with them at that time, otherwise with the help of my companions, I wouldn't have caused so much trouble to everyone." ”

"There's no such thing as a monster in this world that can turn into a human, right?" The boy smiled self-deprecatingly and lay back on the pillow.

"You forgot about yourself." Feng Chen patted his companion on the shoulder, "I mean...... Chief McGonagall may turn into a dragon, but I haven't seen it yet, and when you reach adulthood, you'll have to transform into a dragon for me. ”

"That will have to wait until my new instructor teaches me." The One-Star Hunter said as he closed his eyes peacefully.
