Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 146: Tiaotiao's long-awaited protective gear

"The fire sprout is coming?"

The door of the shop was pushed open again, and this time a somewhat skinny old man walked out. Although he had white hair, there was still a hint of sharpness between his brows.

"Grandpa Daowen!"

Huoya called out sweetly, and the energetic old man smiled, nodded, and then looked at the two people behind him.

After taking a closer look, he found that they were two unfamiliar faces and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

After such a long time, are there finally hunters from other places visiting Yanhuo Village?
"What are you going to build?"

Lin Lin pointed at Brave and said, "We just hunted an umbrella bird. He wants to make an umbrella sword. If there are enough materials, he wants to make a set of umbrella bird armor."

"As for me, I wanted to ask if I could make a set of armor for my hunting partner."

Dao Wen listened quietly, and only nodded slightly when Lin Lin finished speaking, and pointed to the room next to him:
"Although I can also craft equipment for followers, Blade is an expert in this area. Over the years, his skills in crafting follower equipment have surpassed mine. You can go ask him next door."

After finishing speaking, Dao Wen turned to Brave:
"Have you brought all the materials?"

Brave shook his head awkwardly. "They're all piled on the cart. I'll bring them over right away."

In fact, some of the materials were carried by Ye Zi's moon-white fang hound, but because of Lin Lin's previous reminder, he specially concentrated the umbrella bird materials on the cart and personally followed and watched over them. Xiaobai carried the colorful bird materials that were not used.

"No need to bother. I'll go with you to count the materials. If there are enough, we can start working right away."

Braif took Dao Wen to the other side of the village. Lin Lin also knocked on the door next door and saw Daofeng, who was responsible for making the follower's equipment. Huoya took another look at him and felt that her help would no longer be needed. She prepared to return to the bench where she could enjoy the sun and continue to concentrate on dealing with today's rabbit dumpling.

But before she had taken two steps, a little girl with a bun on her hair suddenly found her in a hurry and whispered something in Huoya's ear.

Then Huoya's expression showed a hint of anxiety. She no longer cared about Tutuanzi and hurried in a certain direction.

Lin Lin didn't notice this scene, but after talking to the calico cat in front of him for a few words, he showed a happy expression:

"Is it really possible?"

"Of course! I've seen it all! Get your hunting partner over here, and I'll take some measurements!"

Lin Lin immediately turned his head and called out to Tiao Tiao who was dozing off not far away.

"Jump! Come here!"

When Tiao Tiao's shadow, elongated by the light, completely covered Daofeng, Daofeng, who thought he had seen all kinds of scenes, opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.

It has never seen this scene before...

"You, you mean, your hunting partner is this Yellow Velociraptor?"

Lin Lin tilted his head. "That's not entirely true. Besides Tiaotiao, my hunting partner is also Jujube! Jujube doesn't need new equipment for the time being. I mainly want to add some protection for Tiaotiao."

Seeing that Dao Feng did not respond for a long time, Lin Lin blinked and added:

"Can't the Fanghounds in your Flame Village wear armor? Shouldn't Tiaotiao be able to wear armor too?"

"Or is it that the difference between the Fanged Beast and the Bird Dragon is so great that it's difficult to design equipment for them?"

Blade finally came to his senses. "Sure, sure, meow. Just give me a little time. I need to modify the design a little bit, meow!" "By the way, what kind of monster materials are you planning to use to make the armor, meow?"

Should we say he is worthy of being a craftsman of Yanhuo Village?

Apart from being stunned for a moment at the beginning, he really did what he said without any hesitation. Lin Lin had prepared a lot of arguments to convince the other party, but he didn't expect that he would agree so readily.

This is the value of a village that not only raises tuskers but also amphibians!
"As for the materials..."

Lin Lin blinked his eyes. He subconsciously wanted to say that he would use the materials of the Sand Dragon. But when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he remembered that due to the heavy rain that blocked the stream, he and Brave had to travel light and only took the necessities with them. The remaining Sand Dragon materials were still piled in the box, gathering dust!
Doesn't this mean I have to hunt another monster...

Wait, it seems like I have it ready here?
"Will the colorful bird material be okay?"

"Colorful bird meow..."

Blade thought for a moment, "Because there are actually very few colorful birds in the ecosystem near Yanhuo Village, there are no equipment for the Fanghounds here to refer to. I need to design it from scratch..."

"But the Yellow Dragon King is a bird dragon himself. Using the colorful bird materials, which are also bird dragons, to create armor... Hmm, I think I have some ideas, meow!"

"Come on, measure Tiaotiao's body data first, then show me the colorful bird material. It won't take long to be done, meow!"

Daofeng took out his tape measure and was about to step forward to measure, but when he met Tiaotiao's condescending gaze, he couldn't help but feel a little intimidated:
"This...should I let you come?"

Lin Lin smiled and rubbed Tiaotiao's crown. "It's okay. Just treat Tiaotiao as a hound."

……

After measuring the data without any trouble, Lin Lin took Daofeng to get the material of the colorful bird.

Blade, who was pulled by Coconut Tree to sit on Tiao Tiao's back, felt a little curious. He had never had such a high view before!
"After experiencing it yourself, will you get more inspiration for Tiaotiao's armor design?"

Coconut Tree sat steadily on Tiaotiao's back. The long-term cooperation allowed it to maintain good balance on Tiaotiao's back without a saddle. However, Blade did not have this ability. It was only because of Coconut Tree that he did not fall off.

"Very useful, meow. I just realized that the saddle for the Fanghound isn't very suitable. Tiaotiao's back is higher in the middle and lower on the sides..."

Coconut Date seemed to have remembered something, his eyes sparkled, and he offered his own suggestion:

"If possible, please make sure to design a stable base in front of the saddle!"

"Base? What's it for, meow?"

"To place the bed crossbow, meow!"

Coconut Tree gestured with its two cat paws, but when it let go, the blade almost fell down again. Fortunately, Lin Lin, who was standing next to it, reached out and supported it in time, preventing it from falling down.

"Bed crossbow?"

"It's similar to the heavy crossbow you used in Jade Leaf Fortress, except I miniaturized it, meow! If Tiaotiao could carry it in battle, it would definitely be a huge help in hunting, meow!"

Blade tried to imagine a scenario like that: if the weapons in the Jade Leaf Fortress were not fixed, but had the mobility of a fang hound...

Huh? Looks like there's actually something going on here!

The hunter riding on the back of the Fanghound and throwing kunai is actually a prototype, meow! Why didn't I notice this, meow?
