Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 14 The First Battle
Lin Lin had been hiding behind the mushroom pig not too far away, in the shadows, and he was well concealed without being contaminated by any scent, so the little dog dragon that followed the scent did not discover him at first.

When the excited little dragon dog heard the sound of friction of the mechanism and looked back vigilantly, he saw a heavy black shadow coming towards him with a sound of breaking wind. Before he could react, the huge force directly smashed his slender body, causing it to roll twice in the air before falling to the ground, scaring the mushroom pig that had just rested and making it run away.

Immediately afterwards, severe pain invaded the puppy's small head, making it howl continuously.

Opposite it, Lin Lin pressed the mechanism, and the giant axe that was more than two meters long shrank and folded, quickly separating into a sword and shield. Although the movement was a little sluggish, it finally completed the standard transformation from axe form to sword form.

Looking at the miserable appearance of the little dog dragon opposite, whose one leg was chopped into two, Lin Lin tightened his grip on the sword.

He had originally intended to chop the guy's head with the axe, but the guy suddenly turned around, and the center of gravity of the bone weapon shifted when it was in axe form, so he needed to use more force to control it. This time, he lost his aim, resulting in the current scene of flying blood and flesh, which would make ordinary people vomit if they saw it.

However, Lin Lin felt that he had an unexpectedly strong adaptability to this kind of scene. Perhaps it was due to his previous experience of surviving in the wild. He felt a little nauseous when he first saw it, but he completely suppressed that feeling in just a few breaths.

The little dragon dog was still howling, but when it saw that the attacker was almost the same size as it, its howl became more vicious. Even if it was hopping on its only remaining leg, it wanted to rush up and bite this guy.

"bring it on!"

Lin Lin exhaled, his eyes fixed on the puppy dragon that was jumping towards him on one foot, and he took the initiative to greet it.

The moment it pounced on him, Lin Lin tensed his right arm and held the huge shield in front of him, steadily blocking the puppy dragon's weak attack, with his arm only trembling slightly.

The next moment, the shield was lifted, and the sword broke through the air, heavily chopping off the puppy dragon's fragile neck. The heavy force bent its cervical vertebrae immediately, and its flesh was cut in half. The white bone streaks could be seen under the bright red at a glance.

The puppy dragon fell to the ground, blood foam gushing out of its mouth, and it could no longer make that shrill howl. The injury was enough to kill it.

After a few brief twitches, the puppy dragon's body completely collapsed and lost its life.

"Huh...it's not that difficult. It's not as exciting as facing the big wild boar."

Lin Lin squatted down, pulled out a peeling knife, and first pried out the two sharpest fangs in its mouth. He originally wanted to pick out a few of the strongest scales and knock them off, but a few angry howls coming from afar made him temporarily give up this idea.

The guy's howling when he was attacked was heard by his companions, so just in case, they retreated temporarily and observed the situation from a distance before making a decision.

Quickly wiping off the blood stains on the sharp blade of his bone armor, Lin Lin retreated silently into the shadows of the jungle.

ten minutes later.

Three orange figures burst out of the brush, their gaze instantly focused on the body lying in a pool of blood. Their pupils narrowed, and they howled in anger. They craned their necks to survey their surroundings, their noses twitching, trying to discern any trace of the scent. However, after a moment's anxious observation, the three dragon pups failed to spot the attackers, so they dispersed, gradually exploring the surroundings to see who had dared to attack a member of their pack in their territory.

One of the little dragon dogs was walking when it suddenly smelled a very faint smell of blood. It raised its head to look around, trying to identify the source, when the branches above its head suddenly made a sound. Before it could look up, a figure fell down with a tremendous force, and the sword in its hand hit its raised forehead.

"Click"

With the crisp sound of bones breaking, the heavy sword blade directly pressed the puppy dragon's head into the soft ground. The opponent didn't even have time to let out a wail, and red and white blood flowed all over the ground. It was obvious that he was dead.

"call……"

Lin Lin stood up and pulled out the sword that was embedded in the puppy dragon's skull. He did not bother to wipe the blood off his face, but watched vigilantly at the two puppy dragons in front of him that had not yet gone far.

Although the little dragon dog that was attacked did not make a sound, the sound of Lin Lin jumping down from the tree still attracted their attention. The two cunning guys hurriedly surrounded him from the left and right, but they stopped five or six meters away from Lin Lin in tacit understanding, constantly wandering around and observing, howling from time to time, as if they were judging the threat level of the target.

Lin Lin's hand holding the sword tightened unconsciously. This was the first time he faced the attack of two monsters head-on. Even though this was just the least dangerous puppy dragon, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

The confrontation lasted for two seconds, and Lin Lin took the initiative to rush forward, trying to severely injure one of the puppy dragons first.

The sword was raised high and fell on the head, but the locked puppy dragon jumped back twice in a row, not only avoiding Lin Lin's attack, but also increasing the distance again.

At the same time, the other little dragon dog ran towards Lin Lin's back, opened its mouth full of sharp hooked teeth, and was about to bite his vest hard.

Hearing the noise behind him, Lin Lin's sword missed and he quickly changed his tactics. He suddenly exerted force from his waist, causing his upper body to turn sharply. With a spinning slash, he sent the sword into the puppy dragon's wide-open mouth, cutting a bloody wound and forcing it to retreat backwards, whimpering.

The forced change of tactics disrupted Lin Lin's center of gravity, forcing him to take several steps to the left before regaining his stability.

The little dog dragon in front saw Lin Lin's flaw, howled excitedly, jumped up, and pounced on Lin Lin.

With no time to attack or block, nor time to roll away, Lin Lin only had time to protect himself with the shield on his right arm, and he felt a heavy force transmitted along the shield to his arm, and then hit his shoulder, causing his upper body to lean back. Fortunately, he stepped back with his left foot in time to stabilize his center of gravity, and was not knocked down and fell into the most dangerous state.

After a brief confrontation, neither side gained an overwhelming advantage, and the situation once again fell into a stalemate.

But this time, the two little dragon dogs were aware of the strength of their opponent, and no longer stayed five or six meters away as before. Instead, they approached from both sides at a slow speed to put pressure on the enemy, trying to force Lin Lin to reveal his flaws in this way.
