hunt and eat

"I'm laughing at you!"

Weiwei stepped on it angrily.

Smacking his lips, Guta looked at the red-haired girl whose chest was heaving because of being too excited, and persuaded: "If you can't do it, just return the money. At worst, I'll accompany you to apologize one by one."

At this time, Guta was too embarrassed to play tricks on Weiwei again, and suggested sincerely.

"No, that money..."

Unexpectedly, Weiwei instantly shook her head like a rattle.

"I spent that money yesterday, and replaced it with raw materials for new equipment..."

she said falteringly.

Guta was dumbfounded.

"I... I thought I was sure to earn the money. At that time, I just saw those materials were being sold at a clearance sale, and they said it was the last day. As soon as I got hot, I..."

"My aunt, that profiteer has been talking about liquidation for almost a month, and I saw him open a second branch across the street last week!"

Guta covered his face and said speechlessly.

After a while, Weiwei cautiously looked at the ancient tower.

"What should we do now?"

Taking a deep breath, Guta resisted the urge to beat this guy violently.

After all, the main responsibility this time is indeed not on Weiwei.

No one could have predicted the disappearance of the bag of alloys.

Guta said as calmly as possible: "I remember you killed a lot of small shield crabs yesterday, right? We'll go to the guild and sell them to your father later."

"He's not my father! It's just the same name."

Vivi protested.

"Shut up!" Guta glared at this guy viciously, and said in a low voice, "Now, he is your father, and the purchase price he pays determines how many days of steamed buns you will eat in the next period of time!"

As a member of the team, Guta and the others naturally wouldn't ignore Weiwei.

However, there should be some punishment.

At least let this silly girl learn a lesson, lest she be so unreliable next time.

He was already an old unlucky guy, and he was still doing something every day, thinking that he was living too happily, right?

……

Carrying a whole sack of shield crab materials, Guta pushed open the gate of the guild.

"Hawk, do you still accept the shield crabs?"

Guta looked at the person in charge of Dede Village behind the counter.

"Take it, but...forget it, let's see how much you have first."

Hawke took the sack, opened it casually, and immediately glanced at Guta in surprise.

"Good guy, one-third of the small shield crabs were here yesterday, but I thought you wouldn't be interested in this weak monster?"

Hawk said teasingly.

"This guy is a hunter, can you tell me what the price is?"

Wei Wei who pulled Yan Baji from behind pushed her to the front, and Gu Ta spoke directly.

"Well, this price."

Hawke gestured.

"No, this price is not even half of the usual price!"

Weiwei was a little impatient.

At the same time, Guta also frowned.

The price is indeed too low.

He looked at Hawke who was shaking his head, and said seriously: "I never knew that the guild would also do things to lower prices?"

With a wry smile, Hawke simply explained clearly.

"Don't get me wrong, the price is okay. Have you ever thought about how many shield crabs you hunted yesterday?"

"That's more than in the entire past year."

Looking at the thoughtful Guta and Weiwei, Hawk spread his hands.

"You don't think that the material for the shield crab is what the guild wants...we just buy it for the local residents."

"To put it bluntly, the materials for shield crabs are already saturated, and Dede Village can't digest more materials... If you really want to sell them, I can accept them, but they need to be resold to other towns and villages. Shipping is not cheap."

After listening to Hawke's explanation, Guta and Weiwei looked at each other in dismay.

"Hi~Hi, I see..." Weiwei said weakly like a deflated ball for a moment, "I'm ready to eat steamed buns for three months."

"What's the situation?" Hawke looked at Guta suspiciously.

Sighing, Guta told the former about what happened today.

"Ah, you want to talk about the blacksmith shop...why, haven't you heard the rumor?"

"What rumor?" Both of them were taken aback.

"It probably started a few years ago. There is a saying that as long as you bring waste, there will be a god who will accept it and give you blessings."

"It is said that it will save your life at a critical moment~"

"Do you believe this?" Guta looked at it with disgust.

"Well, of course I don't believe it, but it is true that the scraps after forging have disappeared all the time. The key point is that there is no witness report. The whole thing is very strange."

Hawke said with a look of nostalgia.

"You don't care about that?"

Guta looked at the leader of the guild in front of him, with an expression on his face as if you were eating nothing.

"Don't look at me like that, you don't think I'm idle..." Hawke sighed, rubbing the space between his brows, "The release and settlement of missions, the daily security of the village and the management of monsters, I have always been alone. Responsible."

"Since no one was injured in an incident like the blacksmith shop, I naturally have no reason to do a special investigation... After all, I haven't had enough time to spend on such uncertain things."

"Let's get down to business, I already understand what Weiwei's headache is now, it's nothing more than money, how about it..."

Hawk crossed his hands on the counter and looked at the two with a smile.

"Promise me one condition, I can eat this batch of shield crabs at the original price."

This guy, would he be so kind?

Both Weiwei and Guta raised their heads vigilantly.

There is nothing to be courteous, and it is either a traitor or a thief.

"Then what's the price?" Guta asked.

"I have a task that I want to give to you."

For some reason, they are two people with completely different styles.

But Guta vaguely saw the shadow of Cassius from Hawke.

……

Chapter 24 gave me the exclusive experience, thank you!

"A while ago, a horned dragon occupied Fangzhou, causing the water source to be blocked, have you heard?"

Hawke spoke.

"Huh? I remember that the guild has sent someone to deal with this matter, right?"

Guta glanced at Hawke with some doubts.

If I remember correctly, the proprietress of the hotel where they lived mentioned this matter.

"This, although it's a little hard to say..." Hawke scratched his blinding bald head with some embarrassment, and quietly glanced outside the door.

Good, no one.

"That, actually..."

"What? You haven't played before?!" Weiwei's loud voice resounded throughout the guild.

"Hey, little ancestor, please keep your voice down so that people will know if I'm still alive or not!?"

Hawk was a little impatient, and quickly covered Weiwei's big mouth.

"Well, it's not that I can't fight. The main reason is that I was not in good shape that day, and it may also be because I didn't sleep well the day before."

Guta's gaze became even more contemptuous.

Appeared!I am in a bad state.

"So, where is that horned dragon now? What's the strength rating?" When it came to the task, Guta suddenly became more serious.

As a hunter, figuring out the movement and strength of the prey is the most important thing.

After all, hunting is a life-and-death gamble, so it must not be a joke.

"According to the latest eyewitness report, still staying in that desert oasis, if the strength rating..."

"About 32-35, stronger than the average flying dragon."

The more Hawke spoke, the lower his voice became, and the more embarrassed his face became.

No matter what, as the leader of the guild in a region, monsters of this level cannot be dealt with, let alone others, he himself feels a little ashamed.

Of course, even though he wished he could finish this embarrassing topic with a few words, his sense of responsibility as the leader of the guild still made him say a few more words.

"This one-horned dragon is very powerful, so don't do any solo trials!"

Hawke's so-called Trials of One can even be traced back to the time when the first hunter appeared.

According to legend, the first hunter in history, that is, the dragon-human youth in Keket Village, defeated a horned dragon and broke its true red horn, which symbolizes power, and truly opened the way of hunter inheritance.

Therefore, among hunters, defeating a one-horned dragon and hunting its true red horn has become an important test with symbolic significance.

That is the so-called "proof of heroes".

But not everyone can be that lucky one.

Every year, quite a few hunters die in the trials of the one-horned dragon.

In recent years, in order to prevent the power of the new generation from being lost for no reason, the Hunter Guild will only issue single-person trial licenses to hunters whose strength has been recognized.

It is worth mentioning that a small number of people who are eager to win the honor of "heroes" but do not have the corresponding strength will obtain the skull of a horned dragon from the famous shield crab (most of the famous shield crabs will carry the skull of a horned dragon) ), and pretended to be a true red horn to make up for it.

Although not advocating the single-person trial of a horned dragon, the guild hates this kind of despicable behavior. Therefore, it has established a registration system for the true red horn, and the name of each horn holder will be verified and recorded.

For those "fakes" obtained from daimyo shield crabs, the guild not only called them "corrupted true red horns", but also severely punished those hunters who violated their reputation.

Theoretically speaking, neither Guta nor anyone else in the team is qualified to accept the mission of a horned dragon at this time.

But who said that the high-end combat power here in Dede Village is too scarce.

Hawk can only learn to be flexible.

But even so, he still didn't want Guta and the others to rashly conduct such a life-threatening trial.

After all, it is rare to see a hunter who can single-handedly defeat a horned dragon in ten years.

"I beg you, don't mess around."

Looking at the ancient tower suddenly realized, and then his eyes were full of fighting spirit, Hawke wished to slap himself.

Good guy, I reminded him of such a thing instead.

"Well, don't worry, if I can't handle it, I will let everyone go to it together, I can't

Make fun of your own life. "Guta said word by word.

The implication is that he is still ready to try that trial.
