Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1352 Let's go see a doctor.
She returned home under a blood-red sky.

When she opened the door, she found her husband standing in front of the baby's crib with his back to her.

Just as she was about to say "I'm back", her husband slowly turned around, his mouth twisted with fangs and blood flowing.

Staring at him were a pair of dark yellow vertical pupils.

"Hey--!"

Hayata screamed and jumped up from the bed. The memory of the nightmare quickly blurred, but in the end, the horrifying scene was deeply imprinted in her mind.

He held his forehead with his hands, his mind a little confused.

Looking at the quilt wrapped up in a big ball beside him, with his pajamas soaked with cold sweat, Hayata swallowed.

My heart was beating wildly. If I lifted the quilt and found a Nergigante lying on the bed,
She reached out her hand tremblingly, lifted a corner of the quilt, and what appeared before her was...

Of course it was Gordon who was sleeping soundly.

"What am I thinking about?" Hayata slapped her cheeks with both hands to wake herself up.

"Snapped!"

The slap was quite heavy, and even Gordon, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up.

He turned around with a confused look on his face and found Hayata sitting on the bed staring at him, with an obvious slap mark on her cheek.

".ah?"

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Hayata suddenly reached her hand into Gordon's pajamas and fumbled around.

Gordon was confused and had some misunderstanding. He laughed strangely and was about to launch a "counterattack".

But Hayata let out a long sigh, muttered "no scales", then wrapped himself in the quilt and prepared to go back to sleep.

"???"

Hayata finally couldn't continue sleeping because someone jumped on her.
Then they woke up little Mutti in the crib beside the bed, and the two of them had to work hard to finally calm him down.

Now both sleepiness and sexual desire are gone.

Late in the night, the two of them sat on the bed, looking at each other.

"So, it's because you had a nightmare?" Gordon rubbed his face and asked, "You dreamed that I turned into a Nergigante? And ate my daughter?

You have a very rich imagination.”

Hayata was a little embarrassed, but she quickly put it aside and said to Gordon seriously, "Let's go to the doctor for a checkup after daybreak. I'm still a little worried."

"Check what? Check your body?" Gordon looked puzzled. "I'm very healthy. I didn't have any hidden injuries from this battle. My physical condition is very good.

It's a bit exaggerated to strangle a flying dragon with bare hands, but it's no problem to kill a big thief dragon, so there's nothing to worry about."

Hayata was silent for a moment, “It’s because you’re too healthy that I’m worried, not to mention Makatide and the others who are more seriously injured.

Take myself for example. In the battle of hunting the Earth Dragon, I was not hit directly, but was only hit by the aftermath several times. The most serious one even triggered the Spirit's Protection.

I felt chest tightness and nausea for a few days, but unlike you, you slept as if nothing had happened. Even Pig Chop said this was not normal. "

"Can't you have a stronger recovery ability?"

Seeing Hayata staring at him, Gordon raised his hands in a similar manner, "Okay, okay, I know what you mean."

After the hunt, Pig Chop checked his body and concluded that he was in great shape with almost no signs of injury.

But he wasn't injured in the battle? How is that possible?
The injuries he received in that battle were enough to kill a person several times over. The only reason for this was the special protection of the [Mad Mark].

Using the blood of the ancient dragon as medicine, his injuries were basically healed during the battle.

If it was just an external injury, it would be fine, but the broken bones and internal organs were also completely repaired. Even secret medicine could not achieve this level of treatment.

No matter how you look at it, it's a bit weird.

"So you're worried that I'll be corroded by the dragon's blood and undergo some irreversible changes? For example, growing scales or something?"

Hayata nodded seriously.

"Hahaha, you've read too many novels!" Gordon laughed and waved his hands, but under Hayata's serious gaze, he stopped laughing with a dry cough.

"Well, if you're really worried, just go. There's nothing to do tomorrow anyway."

At dawn, Gordon, who was yawning, was dragged out of the door by Hayata and arrived at the doctor's house.

Hayata reached out and knocked on the door, and the person who opened the door was a young man from the Dragon Tribe.

When he saw the two, he seemed a little surprised, "Huh? Captain? And Miss Hayata?"

He was a pharmacist, as well as a disciple and assistant to a physician.

As members of the special investigation team who came to the New World at the same time as Gordon and others, they have a fairly close relationship.

The assistant led them inside and saw the doctor.

She was a dragon woman who looked to be in her fifties or sixties. She was very skilled in medicine, had a kind personality, and was friendly to everyone.

It only becomes quite terrifying when the patient disobeys the doctor's advice and acts recklessly, such as drinking alcohol while recovering from an injury.

After listening to Hayata describe the "symptoms" for Gordon, the doctor was silent for a few seconds.

To Gordon, this kind of performance was helpless and speechless, but to Hayata, it was solemn.

The doctor did not jump to conclusion, but took some time to give Gordon a comprehensive examination.

Looking at the data on the examination, the assistant couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected of you, you are the head of the group. With this kind of physical fitness, are you really a human being?"

Gordon grinned, "I'll take that as a compliment."

"How is it?" Hayata asked the old doctor nervously.

“Well, whether from the examination results or from my experience, Mr. Gordon is very healthy.

However, Miss Hayata's concerns are justified. In recent years, there have indeed been cases of mutations caused by monster tissues, such as blood contamination.

Becoming aggressive, bloodthirsty, or even completely crazy is what we call dragon madness."

Hayata: “.”

Gordon coughed to suppress his laughter, then held Hayata's shoulder and said seriously, "Did you hear what the doctor said? I think you can also get checked to prevent a recurrence of your old illness."

Hayata turned his head and glared at him fiercely, then explained to the doctor helplessly: "That's not what I meant, you misunderstood.

So, is it possible that it is not an infection with a virus or bacteria, but a fusion of some blood, or a mutation or something like that?"

The doctor was silent for a few seconds, and finally sighed, "Ms. Hayata, have you read too many novels? It is impossible for humans to grow scales and horns and turn into dragons.

The blessing of using monster blood to heal injuries is very rare, but it does exist.

What you should be more worried about is that Mr. Gordon will get used to this protection and forget himself in battle, rather than worrying about him growing a pair of wings.

By the way, if you are troubled by nightmares and hallucinations and feel overly anxious about them, you may also have some kind of stress disorder.

Mental illness is also an illness, please do not ignore it. "

"."

Faced with the doctor's preaching, Hayata had no choice but to sit up straight and lower his head in response.

Gordon continued to snicker.

The assistant standing behind the doctor said, “Ms. Hayata, if you really can’t let it go, there is actually a way.

As long as it is the material of an ancient dragon, whether it is the blood of an ancient dragon, or its scales, claws, teeth, etc., it will basically react violently to the dragon attribute energy.

You can use the Dragon-Slaying Stone, or other objects rich in dragon energy, to touch the leader's body, or make a small wound to try.

If there is no reaction, doesn't it prove that your worries are unnecessary?

This will also help untie your knot.”

"Hahaha, that's a good idea!" Gordon laughed, "If there's no reaction, then I'm not the one with the problem!"

Hayata looked at him coldly, "Go home first, and let me chop you with my Dragon Blade [Red Lotus]."
