Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 238 Goodbye Xiong Er
After putting his things in place, Lin Lin first went to the village research institute.

As expected, Sophia was not here, but Lin Lin's trip was not completely in vain. He met Sophia's teacher, Mia, his nominal leader in the "friendship plan".

When he left, Senior Mia volunteered to investigate the ecology of the Thunder Wolf Dragon and the cause of the incident. Later, through the letter sent by Sophia, Lin Lin learned that a considerable part of the information about the Thunder Wolf Dragon that the village now has was provided by this senior.

Lin Lin had a brief conversation with the other party, and then he realized that he met her by chance. Now the ecology around Jieyun Village has become a mess. Almost all the members of the Jieyun Village's scribe team are busy and have no time to rest. Mia can only come back once every ten days or half a month, and spends most of the rest of her time observing in the wild.

It's worth mentioning that at the end of the conversation, Mia said, "Based on the information we've gathered so far, we've confirmed that the Thunder Wolf Dragon's original habitat was at Lingfeng, but for some reason, it migrated to other places. Next, I plan to try to climb Lingfeng to see if I can figure out what happened."

Lin Lin could sense that, although Mia was very conservative in her words, saying only that it was "a certain factor," from her resolute expression, she had most likely guessed that this factor came from an ancient dragon, but she was still unsure of its specific identity.

Lin Lin hesitated for a moment, then pulled out the mustache-faced president of Locklark as a shield and briefly told him about Lanlong's information.

Mia was quite surprised by this, but she just nodded and said thank you, still not giving up her plan to go to Lingfeng.

Lin Lin finally felt the reckless side of Mia's character. She really was the kind of person who went there knowing there was a tiger.

But the problem is, you are a scholar with no combat ability. If you are lucky not to be discovered and bring back the information safely, but if something unexpected happens, you will die in vain. You can obviously issue a task to the upper hunter to explore, right?

"There are no top hunters in the village!"

Lin Lin rubbed his forehead. "Didn't the guild request support from headquarters? We can just wait until the hunters from headquarters arrive!"

"I just want to find out the root cause as soon as possible so that the ecology around the village can be restored to stability!"

Lin Lin was speechless. "Even if you find out, you can solve it? Don't you still have to rely on hunters?"

……

In short, after much persuasion, Mia was finally stopped from thinking of committing suicide. Lin Lin didn't say anything more. After greeting the familiar people in the village, he went straight out of the village, carrying Dates and Tiaotiao, and headed towards the woodland opposite the farm.

Unlike the village, whose layout has hardly changed, the trees in this woodland now appear much sparser, with a large number of broken and fallen trees. Having been a hunter for so long, Lin Lin could recognize at a glance that this was where a very fierce battle had taken place.

However, judging from the freshness of the traces, it should have been some time ago. Judging from some tear marks and scorch marks, the battle in which Xiong Er led other blue bear beasts to repel the Thunder Wolf Dragon may have taken place here.

So Lin Lin felt much more at ease. After all, he already knew the outcome of the battle through Sophia's letter.

Lin Lin did not rush to look for Sophia, but found a cave under the rock with ease. Standing outside, he could faintly hear snoring like thunder from inside.

sleeping?
Lin Lin thought about it and asked Coconut Date to take Tiao Tiao to collect some honey, while he went to the lake to start fishing.

It didn't take too long, about half an hour, and Lin Lin had everything ready.

Next, let's see how effective the sleep awakening is... Sitting upright at the upwind side of the cave, Lin Lin set up a barbecue grill and placed the sashimi fish, which had its internal organs deliberately preserved, on the fire. While turning it, he smeared honey on it with a small brush. The sticky and crystal clear honey flowed down the fish skin, which was gradually turning into brown and yellow, and dripped onto the flames, making a hissing sound.

"Roar, ang ang ang!"

Almost as soon as the fish was grilled and Lin Lin had no time to lift it from the grill, a shocking roar erupted in the cave.

Immediately afterwards, the earth seemed to be shaking, and a rumbling sound approached this side rapidly, as if some huge monster was approaching.

The sound was getting closer and closer, but Lin Lin didn't react. He just raised the grilled fish in his hand and turned around with a smile on his face. The running figure suddenly put all four feet on the ground and began to brake, shoveling away a thick layer of mud along the way, and finally stopped completely before hitting.

"Long time no see, Xiong Er, would you like some grilled fish?"

Looking at the giant bear in front of him, which is more than seven meters tall, Lin Lin feels that there is a word that is particularly suitable to describe the current Xiong Er, that is "stupid, big, black and rough".

In fact, Xiong Er didn't recognize at first that the person grilling fish was his good brother. He was just a little tired and hid in the nest to take a nap. As a result, he smelled a very tempting smell in his dream. His brain, which had just woken up and was not yet clear, was dominated by instinct and rushed directly to the source of the smell.

It was not until it heard the familiar voice and the familiar smell of grilled fish that it finally confirmed that its good brother had returned and had shed his skin again.

Xiong Er happily swallowed the grilled fish in one gulp, then squatted down beside it, drooling and making a rhythmic growl.

The blue bear beast has no language, and even communication among the same species is just a few simple roars to convey emotions. It does not know how to express its surprise and longing - although such roars are more like the threats of wild beasts and the roars of monsters in the eyes of outsiders.

Fortunately, Lin Lin could understand what it was thinking.

It is very chaotic and complicated, and many of them are fleeting thoughts. They are intertwined together and eventually form a bridge called bond.

"When you're not around, I miss you every day..."

"You, a human being, really make me happy..."

"Back then, I couldn't even beat a yellow banana, but now I've finally become stronger. I even beat that electronic dog away. From now on, I'll protect you!"

"The honey-grilled fish is so delicious..."

"Why are there still monsters rushing into my territory? Are you looking for me to...eh? Oh, is this the dragon that was with my good brother last time? Never mind."

"By the way, have you found a mate yet? Xiongxiong, I've been very popular with females lately..."
