Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1458 I don’t think this is a good thing!
Ansel's proposal was unanimously approved by the hunters.

The leader of the second group certainly had no objection. He selected some scales stained with dried blood or fragments of claws and fangs and distributed them to the hunters, asking them to carry them with them.

In the next few days, these forbidden materials made the hunters experience what a nightmare is.

Endless malice and resentment surrounded them like evil spirits.

Roars, wails, and meaningless whispers linger in my ears all the time.

It's like a real gaze, like a sharp dagger, gently touching the back of the neck.

I looked back alertly, but there was nothing behind me.

When I close my eyes at night, what appears before my eyes is not the reassuring darkness, but the boundless red lotus fire.

What was beneath him was no longer a stable bed, but a huge mouth with interlocking fangs.

As his huge mouth closed, he suddenly opened his eyes and stood up.

The illusion before my eyes dissipated.

When I wanted to get out of bed to get some fresh air, I was shocked to find that the floor of the room had disappeared, and in its place was a purgatory abyss filled with blood and flames.
If it weren't for the fact that the nerves of these top hunters had been tempered to be as tough as steel, some of them would have gone crazy that night.

The next day, Julius and Ted announced their withdrawal from the competition.

No one was surprised by Julius, he had no interest in these taboo materials in the first place, and the reason he didn't quit yesterday was that he didn't want to appear too unsociable.

Everyone was a little surprised that Ted withdrew so quickly, as this guy was known for his big heart.

And his eyes were red and swollen, as if he had cried yesterday.

After repeated questioning by Oshula and others, he finally told about the nightmare that had tormented him all night.

He saw his dead mother transformed into a half-human, half-dragon, biting, chewing, and eating his father, sister, and Maka one by one, while he could not move.
"I don't think this is a good thing!"

After dropping the piece of tusk that was assigned to him, Ted went to drink, mumbling.

On the third day, Maca, Nadia decided to quit.

Maka herself could still hold on, but her insect hunter was going crazy. As an insect stick user, it was impossible for her to give up her insect hunting partner for a piece of equipment.

Nadia saw her sacrificed companions die tragically in front of her again and again.

Contrary to her appearance, she is a thoughtful person. Even though she knows these are illusions, she doesn't want to endure them any longer.

By the fourth day, the hunters had gradually become accustomed to the feeling of being haunted by a curse.

The whispers, howls, and illusions gradually dissipated.

But Hayata chose to withdraw at this time.

Because she found that under the influence of that resentment, her thinking would become more aggressive, and her sword power and sword energy would become less stable.

Perhaps after a long period of adaptation and training, she would be able to adapt to all this, but it seems unnecessary.

After obtaining some materials from the Ice Curse Dragon that died at the mouth of the Red Dragon, the leader of the second group agreed to create a new set of [Avalanche] (Avalanche Gamma) for her.

With that set of armor as her main equipment, her style will be more guerrilla-like rather than aggressive.

The conflict in this regard will be more obvious.

After her, Anhil also opted out.

His fighting style is mainly based on sniping, and he is often responsible for commanding battles, so he requires himself to remain absolutely calm.

Equipment made from forbidden materials could become a destabilizing factor, and he didn't want to take that risk.

At this point, there are only five people still participating in the competition for forbidden equipment: Gordon, Fengying, Gail, Aiden and Oshula.

What needs to be determined next is no longer "qualification" but "suitability".

The most important one is naturally the set of red dragon armor.

With the help of the professor, everyone conducted a series of tests that were either reliable or not.

The person who has the best compatibility with Red Dragon material is undoubtedly Feng Ying.

Maybe it’s because of the resonance that occurred?
Those forbidden materials from the Red Dragon caused the least mental pressure on her, but had the highest energy activity, as if they did not reject her.

After discussion, the ownership of this set of armor finally fell on her.

Feng Ying was so happy that snot bubbles came out of her nose.

She had thought that she would be satisfied with just one weapon, but it turned out to be a complete set of armor? !

She stroked the [Dark Light and Ghost Fire] on her body and said, "You are very good, but I am sorry, you have to retire and be put away in the bottom of the box.

Ah ha ha ha! "

After roughly measuring Feng Ying's body shape with his eyes, the leader of the second group said: "Ms. Feng Ying is relatively petite, so the materials used will be relatively less.

This way, there should be enough materials left to craft three light weapons."

"That's all right, isn't it?" Gale said casually, "I, Oshura, and Aiden, two light crossbows and a one-handed sword, all light weapons, just right!

As for Gordon, the dragon horn of the Black Dragon is his. The desire for destruction attached to that thing is too strong, and he is the only one among us who can control it. "

The leader of the second group was somewhat dissatisfied with Gale's tone of dividing raw meat.

But on second thought, this seems to be the most suitable way of distribution.

The hunters discussed it with each other and had no objection to this distribution method, so they decided on it.

The journey of thousands of kilometers from the New World to the Old World was uneventful.

Perhaps due to the influence of the aura of those forbidden materials, they not only encountered no monster attacks along the way, but they couldn't even catch a few fish.

More than twenty days later, the iconic lighthouse and stone pillars of Tangia Port appeared at the end of the horizon.

We didn’t feel anything when we arrived in the New World, but when we really got close to our homeland, everyone’s heart was filled with an indescribable excitement.

"We're back!"

"I'll be the first one to arrive!"

Without waiting for the boat to come to a complete stop, Feng Ying and Ted scrambled to climb over the railing and jumped onto the dock.

"Boom!"

Wearing a full set of heavy armor and weapons, Ted probably weighed nearly half a ton. When he landed, he crushed the wooden planks of the pier.

It attracted the attention of passers-by around.

The guild knight who had received the letter a few days in advance and was waiting here under the orders of the grand elder jumped in the corner of his eyes.

Will the guild reimburse the cost of this repair or not?
The gangway was lowered and everyone got off the boat.

Maka kicked Ted hard in the thighs twice and pulled the disgraceful guy to the back.

The guild knight calmed himself down and bowed to the leading master.

"Master Cambe."

"Bilko, it's you." The master asked with a smile, leaning on the umbrella he always carried with him, "Any message from the great elder?"

"Yes, the Great Elder said: 'I agree with him on the issue of materials and equipment.' And, the Dragon Craftsman received the news and has already gone to the island with his personnel and tools."

The message was rather vague, but everyone knew what it meant and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Even though they had already discussed the distribution of forbidden equipment on the way, if the Great Elder disagreed and demanded that all materials be banned, they would have no choice but to obey.

"The second thing is, the Great Elder said: 'The chaos has calmed down a bit recently, and the situation in various places is still under control. It would be a bit inhumane to ask you to rush back from thousands of miles away and immediately join the battle.

You will be given ten days to visit your relatives and rest. Within ten days, you can report to the East Doruma Guild Headquarters.'"

"Okay!" Feng Ying cheered.

The vacation given by the Great Elder was not short. Even though Yanhuo Village was far away and she had to take an airship back and forth, minus the time spent on the road, she could still go home for two or three days to see her relatives and friends.

Ted Oshura plans to return to Minagard, while Maka plans to go back to Loklak first, and Xianglan will go with her.

The others were all preparing to go to Dondoruma.

Gordon Hayata wanted to see his baby daughter, and if there is enough time, he would also take the child back to his hometown.

There is no need to talk about Anshil and the others, they were born there.

"Pork Chop, do you want to go to Dondoruma with us, or do you want to go back to Shuretsen Hill?" Gordon looked at Pork Chop who was scratching his ears beside him.

"I plan to go to Moga Village first, meow. Where can I find a boat?"
