Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 149: How to Bring Kinsects to Other Places
Huoya turned to look at the village chief, with some doubt in her tone:
"Huh? Village chief, doesn't this flower chain attract different types of will-o'-the-wisp depending on the type of weed grass used? Could you explain that?"

Puxian looked visibly stiff for a moment, then he smiled awkwardly and waved his hands:

"Ahahaha, that's not important. Huoya, you're not a hunter, so you don't understand. Although there are indeed four types of flower chains, in reality, only the Ghost Fragrance Flower Chain is the most practical. No one uses the other flower chains."

Huoya helplessly held her forehead:

"That's what you said, but shouldn't you ask Lin Lin for his opinion, Village Chief?"

"Hmm...that's right, Lin Lin, what do you think?"

"Besides the Ghost Fragrance Flower Chain I just gave you, the other three flower chains are the Hunting Fragrance Flower Chain, the Hard Fragrance Flower Chain, and the Strong Fragrance Flower Chain. The corresponding Ghost Fire Birds that are easily attracted to them can enhance strength, heal injuries, replenish endurance, and strengthen skin defenses, respectively. Which one do you want?"

Lin Lin rubbed his chin. You say this flower chain is important, right? It is, but the problem is, after playing the game for hundreds of hours, the first thing you see when entering a map is the Will-O-Wisp, but this flower chain only made some sense when you first got it. After that, the Ghost Fragrance Flower Chain was just put there and forgotten...

However, in the game, the flower chain only has one equipment slot, but this is not a game, this is reality!

This isn't like the protective stones that affect each other's effects. Who says that in reality you can only wear one flower chain?

"I thought, why not wear all four types of flower chains?"

"One pair for the wrists, one pair for the ankles, four kinds of flower necklaces are just right. Maybe they can even greatly enhance the attraction to the will-o'-the-wisp bird."

Huoya was shocked by Lin Lin's idea and looked at him in surprise, while Puxian closed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.

After a moment, Puxian opened his eyes and looked at Lin Lin, with a look of admiration in his eyes:
"Young people have active minds, which is great."

"How about this? I'll give you all four flower necklaces. When you go hunting during this time, try wearing just one and all four to see if you can tell the difference. How do you do that?"

Puxian took out three flower necklaces of different colors and stuffed them all into Lin Lin's hands.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I still have to go to the training ground!"

Puxian was about to mount his hound and leave when Lin Lin called out to him:
"Wait a moment, Village Chief. I have something else to ask you."

"Oh?"

The village chief turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I just wanted to ask, doesn't our Yanhuo Village have a specialty called Kinsects? I'd also like to try taming a couple, but are there any precautions?"

"Kinsect..."

The village chief pondered for a moment. "As for what precautions to take... I'm not entirely sure, after all, I've never personally raised one. However, there's a dedicated Kinsect training base east of the village, next to the Followers' Square. Perhaps you could check it out?"

After thanking the village chief, the other party rode his dog and disappeared in a flash. Just as Lin Lin was about to take a step to see the base, his steps stopped awkwardly.

This village has more than just one main road. Who knows how to get there?
Fortunately, Lin Lin was not alone at the moment. Huoya saw what Lin Lin was hesitating about and smiled before taking the initiative to lead the way again. Lin Lin could not help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.

Huoya! As long as you don't ride a dragon, you are my god!
……

"Taming Kinsects, meow..."

After listening to Lin Lin's request, Ailu, who was in charge of managing the base, fell into a brief thought.

Although it is called a "base", it is actually just a small area specially designated for breeding Kinsects, which is less than 20 square meters in total.

"If it's in Yanhuo Village, everything would be easy, meow, but if we want to take it somewhere else, to be honest, meow, it's very difficult, meow..."

Lin Lin's heart tightened. "What are the specific difficulties?"

Elu stretched out her cat paw, and a sharp claw popped out from her paw pad:
"First of all, meow, there's no way to solve the food problem, meow! Kinsects' staple food is the nectar of magatama grass, but other than around Flame Village, we haven't found any magatama grass growing anywhere."

"Secondly, Kinsects are actually quite cold-sensitive. If you bring them to a place like the Flasian Snow Mountains, they'll be fine for a short time, but over time, their activity will decrease and they'll go into hibernation!"

"Also, meow, although the wire is very strong, the Kinsect itself is still quite fragile, meow. If it fights alongside a hunter for a long time, it's very easy to be injured or even die from various attacks, meow. It's okay in Yanhuo Village, where you can always get replenishment, but if you go far away, once you die, there's nothing you can do, meow!"

Lin Lin pursed his lips. He had actually anticipated these difficulties, but he still came to Yanhuo Village without hesitation.

There's no way, the insect skills are just too good!
Even just for a "fully charged counterattack", it was enough for him to overcome these difficulties and obstacles.

"Let me think about it. Regarding the nectar of the magatama grass, do bees also collect the nectar of the magatama grass?"

Felyn's eyes widened. "It seems so, meow... but since most of the Magatama Grass is occupied by Kinsects, the bees are usually driven away, meow..."

Lin Lin rubbed his chin. "So, if we let the bees collect the honey from the magatama grass and then use that honey to feed the Kinsects, should that be feasible?"

Elu, who manages Kinsect breeding, was very excited. "This way, the biggest obstacle to promoting Kinsects will be gone, meow!"

As a Felyne born and raised in Flame Fire Village, it naturally knew how much help the existence of Kinsects was to hunters. It could be said that if the hunters in Flame Fire Village had not all tamed Kinsects, Flame Fire Village might not have been able to survive the Night Parade of a Hundred Dragons fifty years ago. Like many nameless villages, it would have been turned into a ruin lost in history by monsters!
Promoting Kinsects has always been the Hunter Guild of Yanhuo Village... or to put it more bluntly, it has been the obsession of Sui Fengmin. It is naturally aware of this, but has been unable to find a solution due to the limitations of the above problems.

Unexpectedly, this foreign hunter had just arrived and solved the biggest problem that had been bothering them with just two sentences.

"It's definitely possible, meow!"

"Once the food problem is solved, promoting Kinsects won't be a major obstacle, meow! Other problems can be overcome, too, meow!"

"I'm going to talk to President Sui Fengmin about opening a bee farm specializing in collecting magatama honey!"

The anxious Ailu turned around and tried to leave, but was then pulled back by Lin Lin:
"Don't worry, don't worry. Pick me two Kinsects first. I'll try to raise them!"
