hunt and eat

Chapter 127 Let me enjoy the experience exclusively, 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.

"Trough!" Hawke couldn't help but swear.

If time could go back, he swore that he would not even hand over this task to Guta and the others.

After all, the ancient pagoda is the preliminary seed of the ancient dragon group. If something happens, he can't afford to offend the monsters of the ancient dragon group.

Noticing Hawke's eyes, Guta comforted: "Don't worry, I won't mess around, and you also know my general strength... Even if I don't win, it is impossible to kill me with just a horned dragon." mine."

"You only live once, and I want you to understand that."

Hawke didn't say anything to Guta, he just stared into his eyes and said solemnly.

"..."

After a long silence, Guta spoke slowly.

"I understand."

"Once there is any risk of losing, I will let my teammates do it directly."

……

Later, Guta accompanied the dejected Weiwei back to the hotel.

More than an hour ago, he accompanied Weiwei to return the money to the hunters who paid the deposit, and apologized one by one.

After selling the shield crab, the money he got was almost enough to offset the deposit, and the rest was posted in Weiwei's own small treasury.

Not only did he not earn the money for the follow-up ammunition wholesale, but he also lost some of it himself. This was undoubtedly a devastating blow to Wei Wei, who was originally playing a wishful thinking.

So much so that the heavy ballista ammunition chain that was originally planned to be built today was not in the mood to do it.

He talked with Niya and Miejuan a little bit about the next horned dragon, and both of them had a lot of complaints about Guta's plan to single-handedly fight the horned dragon.

"It's too dangerous, Guta."

In the dining room, Nia looked at Guta who was sitting down with her head down, and said with a frown.

Mie Jin on the side also nodded in agreement.

They are very clear about the honor represented by the one-horned dragon trial, but both of them have a moderate style of work, and they are quite resistant to this kind of self-inflicted danger.

"Hey, I did this for a reason."

Guta sighed.

The reason why he wanted to challenge the horned dragon was because of the skill [The Body of the Ancient].

[The body of the ancient] LV20 (ancient dragon level)

[As the age and combat experience increase, the owner's size, strength, defense, and true energy (limited to humans) will all increase significantly. 】

[Suppressed by high-level skills, giant strength and tenacity have been fully integrated, and the crushing characteristics will continue to be retained]

There is no doubt that this is a growth skill with great potential.

According to Guta's speculation, because the system skills have a tradition of upgrading every 5 levels, when this ability is upgraded to level 25, there is likely to be a new change, and there is a high probability that a new attribute will be improved .

In addition, the system's labeling of skills clearly shows that this ability will improve synchronously with the growth of one's age and combat experience.

The problem lies here.

Guta couldn't control the growth of age, so let's not worry about it for the time being, but the combat experience, according to Guta's previous experience in playing online games, may be something similar to individual experience points.

Fight with stronger monsters, the more battle experience you get.

During yesterday's battle, he suddenly discovered that his [Ancient Man's Shell] ability had been raised by 3 levels, reaching the level of LV23.

This is strange.

Even because of the large number of monsters that fought yesterday, the ancient pagoda actually hunted two earth sand dragons after careful calculation, and the small half of the velociraptor kings were still scattered ordinary velociraptors.

In terms of quality and quantity, it was actually almost the same as the hunting in the first half month.

But before this, I hadn't advanced to the first level in this ability, so it could be said that I didn't move at all.

Why did you suddenly upgrade to level 3 last night?
If I really want to say what is different from the previous huntings, it is probably that I am basically alone in the whole process, and that the kills are all done by myself.

If you look at it this way, perhaps hunting and killing alone will affect the distribution of combat experience, which is why I haven't upgraded this ability of [Ancient Man's Body] before.

Because most of the time, the kills are done by Extinction (her Slasher is relatively good for the finishing blow), and they're all four of them.

Well, head-grabbing is not a big problem, but fighting alone is not realistic most of the time.

After all, I am not alone now, and it is unlikely that I will hunt alone again.

But this time the mission of the one-horned dragon is different.

Whether it is considered from the honor of [Proof of Heroes] or the difficulty of the task, it just belongs to the kind that Guta can barely handle.

Perhaps in terms of strength, Guta is relatively weaker than the horned dragon, but the battle between hunters and monsters is not just a comparison.

In fact, the ancient pagoda possessed the power of a gluttonous dragon, so naturally it would not be afraid of monsters below the ancient dragon level.

The general problem of not being able to break the defense, which is a headache for most hunters, does not exist at all for him.

After all, his dragon power is too domineering.

Even if the dragon power can only be attached to the teeth at present, that is enough.

His [Gluttony Tooth] can even crush the carapace of a stockade crab!
After briefly explaining the reason why he wanted to challenge alone, Guta waited for his teammates' reply.

If they really disagreed, then he would simply give up the plan.

After all, it's not in a hurry, at most it's just a matter of hunting a few more times.

Nia glanced at Guta with some headaches, and exchanged glances with Mie Jin.

Regarding Guta's strange abilities and talents, to be honest, whether it is Nia or Miejin, or the nervous Weiwei, they are already familiar with it.

Even the guild was vaguely aware of this.

After all, as long as you pay a little attention to the changes in Guta, you can find many clues.

"If you really want to try, we won't stop you." Nia said softly, then straightened her face and said seriously: "But it must be under the premise of ensuring safety."

"Once there is danger, even if you are not happy at that time, we will end."

Miejin and Weiwei nodded aside.

"Ah... that would be great."

"If there is an accident, you must come and save me then."

Gu Tahan smiled and touched the back of his head.
