Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1288 The name must be middle school

Feng Ying and her partner Ai Bo were riding in the wind and snow on a sled pulled by Amber.

She was bemoaning her luck.

It was sunny when we left the base, so how come we encountered a snowstorm halfway? Judging from the trend, it is getting worse.

"I hope it won't turn into a blizzard later," Ai Bo said softly, looking at the white sky.

“Shut up!” Feng Ying, wrapped in the Ice Wolf suit and curled up into a ball with a furry mushroom, covered her face. “If you say something like that, it will come true!”

"That's superstition!"

A few minutes later, the oncoming snowstorm had intensified to the point where it was impossible to open their eyes, and they had to slow down the sled and look for a place to hide from the wind and snow.

If we continue traveling in such weather, not only will we easily get lost, but we may also not be able to see the road clearly and fall into an ice crack, where we may be buried in the snow and freeze to death.

Finally, their luck was not bad and they found a narrow cave entrance in a sheltered corner of a glacier.

Two people, a cat and a dog hurried in.

The whistling sound of the cold wind blowing through the cracks in the glacier was frightening, but fortunately the passage inside the ice cave was winding, and after passing a few bends, the wind was basically imperceptible.

Passing through a narrow and winding passage, they came to an ice cave.

Feng Ying shook off the snow powder that had fallen on her body while looking around the space.

This ice cave was more spacious than she had expected, probably several dozen square meters in size.

Because we were inside the glacier, we couldn't see any rocks. The ground and cave walls were all crystal clear ice, which emitted a crystal-like light under the illumination of the insect-guiding cage.

"Wow! This seems like a perfect place to camp!" The optimistic Ai Bo had put the snowstorm behind him and excitedly marked the location of the ice cave on the map.

Feng Ying sensed something was wrong.

I felt like I was being watched by some kind of gaze, and I got a creepy feeling all over my body.

The vigilant expressions of Mushroom and Amber also proved this. She put her palm on the hilt of the sword and looked around.

The next second, she discovered the source of the peeping.

In a corner of the ice cave, she found a pile of snow with a pair of curved horns and a pair of sparkling little eyes on it, making it look like a snowman.

Feng Ying: "."

You're hiding it so poorly!

Removing her hand from the hilt of the sword, she and Mushroom and Amber gathered around the snowman and watched.

The little eyes exposed in the snow pile blinked, but still had no intention of showing up, as if it still thought it was hiding perfectly.

Feng Ying rolled her eyes and raised her foot as if to kick over the snow pile. The guy hiding in the snow pile finally couldn't hold it back anymore.

He shook off the snow and jumped up, waving the bone sword-like weapon in his hand and screaming.

As expected, this is a beast-entangled creature.

"What are you yelling about? You make it seem like we're enemies. If you yell again, I'll beat you up." Feng Ying said with a pout. Then she remembered that the Beast Clan should be speaking the New World Orc language, so she asked Mushroom to translate for her.

Mushroom looked embarrassed, but fortunately, Aibo also knew some orc language, so he said to the beastman in a friendly voice: "Don't be afraid, we have no hostility."

Feng Ying looked at her suspiciously, feeling that this guy was not translating according to what she said.

Ai Bo didn't bother to pay attention to her. He briefly explained to the Beast Clan that he and others came here to escape the snowstorm.

The Beast Clan, who seemed a little stressed, finally calmed down slowly.

Feng Ying didn't have many opportunities to come into contact with the Beast Clan, but she had heard some stories about them from Gordon and Heta, so she asked curiously:

"Don't the Beast Clan usually move in teams of four? Why is this guy alone?"

This is also what Ai Bo cared about, so she asked the other party in a more friendly way.

The Beast Clan lowered their heads and muttered a lot.

Ai Bo couldn't hear some of the content clearly, so Mushroom helped to translate some of it.

After listening to the story of the Beast Clan, Aibo seemed a little excited, "It and its reconnaissance team set out a few days ago.

They originally wanted to look for prey, but encountered a blizzard. Their captain felt that there was something wrong with the wind and snow, so he led the team to get closer to check.

As a result, the Ice Dragon was discovered."

"Ice Dragon? Are you referring to the Ice Curse Dragon?" Feng Ying also became interested.

The purpose of their trip was to scout and confirm the whereabouts of the Ice Curse Dragon.

Aibo described the image of the Ice Curse Dragon to the Beast Clan, and then took out the piece of scale armor she carried with her and showed it to the Beast Clan.

The Beast Clan immediately became angry and started mumbling something.

Ai Bo nodded to Feng Ying, "It was the Ice Curse Dragon, for sure. The Beast Clan said that the Ice Curse Dragon was very aggressive and attacked them on its own initiative.

They tried desperately to escape, but were finally blocked on an ice cliff.

Under the attack of the Frost Dragon, the ice cliff collapsed, and its companions fell into the sea and disappeared.

It searched for a whole day, and then encountered another blizzard, so it came here to take shelter."

"In other words, the Ice Curse Dragon is nearby? This abnormal snowstorm was caused by the Ice Curse Dragon?" Feng Ying thought for a moment and said:
"Ask it if it can lead us to find the Ice Curse Dragon so we can help it get revenge."

"Its companion is just missing, meow, but not dead." Mushroom reminded in a low voice.

"Well, in short, just ask it to help lead the way."

After hearing Feng Ying's idea, the Beast Clan hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to say something.

"It said that it is willing to lead us and help us find the trace of the Ice Curse Dragon, but before that, it hopes that we can help it find a companion." Ai Bo translated.

"You are very loyal!" Feng Ying squatted down and patted the head of the beast tribe, "Okay, I agree.

When this snowstorm stops, we will go look for your companions. Is there anything that carries the scent of your companions?
The Beast Clan scratched his head and shook his head to indicate no.

"Okay, the smell of your beastly tribe should be similar, Amber, smell it."

"Wang!"

Amber put her nose to the furry belly of the Beast Clan and sniffed it carefully.

This beast creature seemed to be very ticklish, and it shivered and fell to the ground.

Amber, who was smelling it carefully, arched against its belly. The beast creature kicked and struggled with its short legs. Feng Ying couldn't help but stretched out her hand and rubbed it hard.

After a long commotion, Feng Ying finally let the poor beast go and asked Ai Bo to tell it that she touched it in order to better remember its smell, which would help with search and rescue.

The naive Beast Clan believed it and even took out precious ice fish dragon meat jerky as a token of gratitude.

At this point, Feng Ying felt a little embarrassed for being so shameless. Under the blaming eyes of her companions, she took out a few pieces of food she had brought with her as a return gift.

The two sides exchanged food, and after enjoying it together, their relationship became closer.

While waiting for the storm to stop, they chatted.

"So the little one is a girl. By the way, what's its name?" Feng Ying asked curiously.

Aibo asked, and his expression became a little strange, "Its name is composed of two words, the first is 'Heaven's Wrath, Heaven's Punishment', and the second is 'Glacier'.

Roughly translated, it means 'Skywrath Glacier'."

".Wow! You're not that big, but your name sounds impressive." Feng Ying curled her lips, "I'm a little curious, what are the names of your companions?"

The names of the companions in Skywrath Glacier are all similar in style, complex and powerful. It took Aibo a lot of effort to translate them.

"They are called 'Sky-Slicing Cang Ying', 'Wind-Splitting Sorrow Frost' and 'Cambrian Tentacles' respectively."

"."

Ps.
　Those who have been playing for a long time should recognize that these are the names of the 2 series of Chinese-translated Crash Dragon weapons, namely the Great Sword, the Katana, the Dual Swords and the Hammer. (I would like to emphasize that this is the translation of the Chinese translation team, not the official Chinese translation later)

　　There are also Cang Ya Gui Tu (one-handed), Di Lie Po Ji (long spear), Annihilate Fan Kong (gunlance), Tian Huo Fen Xi (light crossbow), Qi Shi Xue Lei (heavy crossbow), Mie Kong Han Xing (bow and arrow), and Fu Shi Zhen Ming (hunting flute).

　　At that time, the author was in the second year of junior high school, and he thought the names of this series of weapons were very cool and left a deep impression on him.
