Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 128 Playing the long game
"Hey! I finally knocked it down!"

Looking at the curved fang breaking from the root, Lin Lin smiled with satisfaction, then inserted the overheated sword into the shield to charge it.

He had a mild case of obsessive-compulsive disorder. He felt unhappy when he saw the cracked fang and had to cut it off to feel satisfied.

—Maybe he inherited the light from Leo and Tiga as a child? Anyway, when he plays games, he's particularly fond of the skill "Destroyer." He feels comfortable only when he destroys every destructible part of a monster.

Due to the strong stimulation of the broken teeth, the wild boar king's brain, which had been shut down by the noise, finally came back to its senses and struggled like crazy to stand up.

Lin Lin did not take advantage of this little time to attack, but took two steps back and used a set of gymnastics to guide the energy stored in the shield to the surface of the shield, thus entering the shield strengthening state.

After Lin Lin finished his gymnastics, he was prepared to face the wrath of the wild boar king after he stood up. However, when Tiao Tiao saw this guy get up again, he spat out another mouthful of venom without thinking.

The wild boar king relied on his strong physique and was able to muster up strength to fight after being sprayed with venom before. However, after the second venom landed, his muscles were completely out of control. He had just climbed up with great difficulty, but after the convulsions, he fell to the ground again.

The wild boar king fell to the ground again. Lin Lin had just opened the red shield and took advantage of this opportunity to collect another wave of bottles. When the guy got up, with the weight of the earth and sand shield axe, a full bottle of super solution would be enough to send the wild boar king to hell.

Lin Lin held the sword and was about to strike out when Yezao came close to him and asked hesitantly:
"Boss meow, are we going to hunt this guy meow?"

"I remember you said, Boss, that we can't hunt monsters that aren't on the commission, meow?"

Lin Lin's sword paused for a moment, then hit the other fang of the wild boar king.

"Ah, that's right, but this guy attacked us first. This is legitimate defense and it doesn't violate the rules."

"I see! I thought defense could only repel, not kill, meow!"

Coconut Date swung the cat pickaxe and inflicted an inconspicuous wound on the wild boar king.

Lin Lin's mouth twitched. Could he say that he was trying to be lazy by using the wild boar king's skin to pretend to be a wild boar?
After deeply examining his own thoughts, Lin Lin felt that it would be better not to violate the professional ethics of hunters, but to think actively and perform more unexpected operations.

For example, now, he had an idea.

Hey! I have an idea!
If it was hard for him to find the giant wild boar, how could the giant wild boar king be hard to find? This guy was injured and must be in urgent need of the tribe's protection, right? If he deliberately let this guy escape and followed him from a distance, maybe he could use this opportunity to find another giant wild boar?

Thinking of this, Lin Lin became excited, but did not withdraw his hand immediately.

After all, the premise for putting the above ideas into practice is that the big wild boar king wants to run away, and it is best not to let it be injured to a certain extent. Even if it falls to the ground and sobs after a while of meeting, it is still full of anger and wants to pierce everyone present!

Lin Lin concentrated on trying to cut off the only remaining tusk of the wild boar king, while secretly eavesdropping on the guy's thoughts to judge when it would be appropriate to stop.

After hearing this, I finally understood why this guy wanted to attack Tiaotiao, the tallest one present, as soon as they met. It turned out that Tiaotiao was eating a member of his harem...

Of course, that little bit of anger was only at the beginning. Now this guy should hate himself the most. After all, it was Lin Lin who broke his proud big tooth.

Steamed buns, you don’t have a handle?
Lin Lin chopped its other fang with greater force.

……

The paralyzing effect of Tiao Tiao was very strong. It was not until Lin Lin chopped the second fang off with his sword and smashed it with his shield that the wild boar king finally climbed up again under the stimulation of life and death crisis. He did not dare to stay and staggered away.

"Boss, why did you let it run away again?"

Coconut Date was quite confused. Didn’t he want to hit it just now?

"Hey, don't worry!"

Lin Lin rinsed his hand, which had just thrown the dye ball, in the stagnant water on the ground, and then rubbed Tiaotiao's head with his other hand. "Let Tiaotiao eat first. I'll smash the dye ball, so he won't lose it."

"I mean, Boss, you could have just used 'that trick' to deal with it, meow. Why did you deliberately let it get away?"

"Huh? Uh..."

Lin Lin then realized that all his ideas just now popped up in his mind in a flash, and Jujube had no idea about his plans at all.

So Lin Lin told us about his plan of "casting a long line to catch small fish".

After hearing this, Coconut Date was shocked and murmured to himself:

"Is this the hunter's method, meow?"

……

Lin Lin gnawed a piece of food he brought with him and sharpened his knife. Jujube also ate a small dried fish to replenish his energy. After Tiaotiao was full, they finally began to follow the traces left by the dye ball.

In such a rainstorm environment, the duration that the dye ball can last will be greatly shortened, but with the help of the various fresh traces left by the wild boar king along the way, Lin Lin and his party still followed closely behind the wild boar king and were not thrown off.

"This guy can run really fast, meow! He's already climbed over several hills, meow..."

Date shook his body to shake off the water droplets on his hair.

Lin Lin touched the fresh gnawing marks left by the wild boar king and began to doubt his own judgment:

"Could it be that the giant wild boar king knew we were following him, and so he deliberately avoided his own tribe? That's strange, he shouldn't have such intelligence, right?"

Since they had not yet caught up with the Wild Boar King and the distance between them was too far, Lin Lin had no way of listening to what the other party was thinking.

But after chasing for so long, it's a bit hard to give up like this...

Lin Lin unfolded the map and compared the location. He found that they had unknowingly moved away from the vicinity of Jieyun Village. More than ten kilometers further ahead was the sacred peak that was regarded as a holy place by the people of Jieyun.

Lingfeng?!
Lin Lin suddenly looked up at the sky. It was raining heavily. This kind of weather was very common in the stream, but it was not common at all for it to last for so many days!

"Could it be you... Lanlong?"

Lin Lin put the map away again, a trace of worry in his heart. If it really was that guy, he was not prepared at all...

This is really going to kill me...

"Boss meow, did you hear any noise meow?"

Coconut Date suddenly moved his ears and looked at Lin Lin uncertainly.

"Ah? What's that sound?"

Elu's hearing is much more sensitive than that of humans, so Lin Lin heard nothing.

"It's a bit like a wolf's howl..."
