Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 257 Overlord
Walking alone in this familiar forest, without any companions, everything seemed to have returned to the time when I first traveled to this world.

The flesh-red specialty mushrooms were tender and juicy, and the leisurely flying lightning bugs emitted beautiful blue light. However, Lin Lin was no longer the young man whose life could be threatened by a mere puppy, dragon, or wild boar.

Walking in the mountains and forests again, Lin Lin at this moment looked very much like Kevin back then, swaying left and right, looking east and west, feeling relaxed.

"Huh? Is this Polygonum multiflorum? Jujube will probably like it. Take it away!"

"Honey? It's perfect for grilling meat later. Take it!"

"Huh? This thing looks like honey bait? Yezi should use it to feed hunting insects. Take it away!"

"Mandragora? Great, great, I need it to make the secret medicine. Take it away!"

Lin Lin walked and stopped along the way, stepping on the raindrops, strolling happily.

The surprises didn't even end there. When Lin Lin turned the corner with the big orange mushroom on his waist, a humming sound suddenly came from behind him.

Turning around, it turned out to be a mushroom pig covered with pig skin marinated with mushrooms in advance. It followed the scent of Datura and when it saw Lin Lin, it hummed twice with a stupid look on its face, as if wondering how the mushroom could grow legs and run away.

It was not until Lin Lin showed his "kind" smile that the Mushroom Pig realized that he seemed to be in danger and quickly tried to turn around and escape.

With an empty stomach and just a few hot spring eggs to fill his stomach, how could Lin Lin let go of the fresh meat that was right in front of him?
Lin Lin kicked the mushroom pig over with one kick. Without even drawing his shield axe, he pulled out his peeling knife and ended the life of the poor mushroom pig.

The skin is peeled and bled skillfully, the meat is cut into pieces, and then brushed with freshly collected honey. The meat is fragrant, the skin is crispy, and the inside is tender. A bite is full of juice and a hint of mushroom fragrance. The hot taste forms a sharp contrast with the continuous rain outside, which makes people feel a sense of happiness and satisfaction.

“Barbecue, so cool!”

There is also pork skin with mushrooms, which is also a good thing. It is also a great way to make pork skin jelly, so you have to keep it well.

Hiding under the cliff, listening to the sound of raindrops and eating the delicious barbecue, Lin Lin opened his stomach and before he knew it, the whole pig was eaten up by Lin Lin.

It was not until he finished eating and found that only bones were left on the ground that Lin Lin suddenly became alert.

"Fuck! I can eat too much!!"

The key is not just being able to eat. Even after eating so much, Lin Lin did not feel bloated or uncomfortable. The meat he ate was digested quickly and turned into a warm current that merged into his body, giving Lin Lin the illusion that his strength was continuously growing.

After moving around a bit, Lin Lin felt full of energy and energy. He was not afraid to fight against the Thunder Wolf Dragon again.

"Ouch——"

Lin Lin:?
Not a buddy?

Does the slap in the face have to come so quickly?

Lin Lin was so familiar with that howl just now. Wasn't that the roar of a Thunder Wolf Dragon? And judging by the tone, it wasn't a normal howl, but the passionate roar of a dragon entering a super-charged state.

No, aren't there Thunder Wolf Dragons fighting here? Lin Lin hesitated for a moment, then put on his sword and shield and prepared to move over to observe.

If it was just a fight over territory between monsters, it would be better for him to just take a look and leave.

……

"Ouch——"

As the Thunder Wolf Dragon roared, an invisible air wave spread out in all directions, and brilliant electric currents surrounded the green monster.

Opposite it, a giant bear of relatively smaller size was opening its arms and roaring threateningly at the Thunder Wolf Dragon.

Unfortunately, the Thunder Wolf Dragon didn't feel intimidated. Having just entered its super-charged state, it felt incredibly powerful. The minor setback it suffered before strengthening was no big deal. Now that it was so powerful, what the hell could it resist? What else could it resist?!
The Thunder Wolf Dragon leaped up directly, raised its claws and was about to smash down with force.

Opposite it, the giant bear with dark blue hair saw that the intimidation was ineffective, so it stopped this meaningless action and just stood there until the last moment when the Thunder Wolf Dragon's claws came down. It twisted its body to avoid the dragon claws flashing with lightning, and at the same time, it hit the Thunder Wolf Dragon's strong chest heavily with an Iron Mountain Lean.

"boom!"

The Thunder Wolf Dragon staggered back two steps, and the giant bear also leaned back slightly due to the reaction force.

"Roar!!!"

The next moment, the giant bear stabilized its body and launched a direct charge towards the Thunder Wolf Dragon in front of it. The shells of its arms were stained with dark red blood, and the terrifying momentum of its violent charge made it even more powerful.

The battles between wild beasts are usually not fancy. They just fight without saying anything. Whoever is stronger will have the upper hand. This is why many large monsters often have higher ecological niches and heavier weights, making it easier for them to gain the upper hand in a competition of strength.

However, this universal rule was broken in the case of the giant bear.

It seems to be charging without reservation, attacking like a storm, but in fact it will retain a certain amount of strength in each move. While attacking, it has been observing the movements of its opponent. Whenever the opponent has a tendency to raise its claws or head forward, it will receive the force in time, or dodge sideways, or take the initiative to attack the place where the opponent is difficult to exert force.

It is like an experienced general who has fought his way out of a sea of blood and corpses. He can clearly distinguish when to attack, when to avoid, and when to retreat.

For example, now, it has fought with the Thunder Wolf Dragon more than once. At the beginning, it faced this monster with superior physical strength, extremely sensitive reactions, and lightning attacks that were like "magic". It was directly suppressed and could not raise its head at all. It could only rely on summoning other blue bear beasts to surround and beat it together, and only then was it able to barely repel the opponent.

After that, the same guy, but different individuals, came back several times, and each time a fierce battle broke out with it, and each battle brought it great pressure.

Fortunately, it successfully withstood this pressure and grew rapidly under this tempering, and its combat experience grew at an astonishing rate until today.

The super-charged state that was once difficult for it to withstand now only requires more careful observation and response. It has already known the opponent's every move like a mirror in its mind, and knows exactly how to respond.

For example, now, the Thunder Wolf Dragon, who was getting more and more frightened, pressed his front claws on the ground and used a Thomas turn to try to sweep down the giant bear, but the opponent retreated out of the sweep range in advance as expected, and then, while the bear's old strength was gone and new strength had not yet been generated, suddenly pounced forward and slapped its head hard.
