Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 258: Who is it? It’s so hard to guess.

When Lin Lin arrived at the scene, he pushed aside the banana leaves that were blocking his view and saw Xiong Er beating the Thunder Wolf Dragon.

The Thunder Wolf Dragon felt dizzy after being slapped in the face. He shook his head on the spot, still looking a little unconscious.

Xiong Er didn't give it a chance to recover. He slapped it again on the spot. With his attacks from both sides, he actually made the Thunder Wolf Dragon lose its balance. It fell directly to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

Lin Lin hesitated for a moment and did not go out immediately. Instead, he remained hidden and observed the situation.

In fact, Lin Lin was not the only spectator of this battle. There was another person who had hidden nearby and secretly witnessed the entire process of the battle.

This person is Kevin.

He tracked the traces of the wandering Thunder Wolf Dragon mentioned in the mission and found that its movements were moving towards the village, so he arrived here in advance to prepare to intercept it.

But what he didn't expect was that although he waited for the Thunder Wolf Dragon, just when he was about to throw a flash bomb to take the initiative, a monster that looked very much like the Blue Bear Beast suddenly jumped out of the jungle on the other side and fought back and forth with the Thunder Wolf Dragon.

The reason he said it resembled the Blue Bearmon was because in his impression, the Blue Bearmon was a docile monster, even able to get along with humans. Look at this ferocious creature before him, lashing out at the Thunder Wolf Dragon with both hands. Aside from the physical resemblance, how could it possibly resemble the Blue Bearmon at all? How could a Blue Bearmon slap a Thunder Wolf Dragon?
When did such a dangerous subspecies/rare monster appear near the village? And there's no subjugation request?

Is there no sighting report yet? I need to submit one when I get back...

Thinking of this, Kevin couldn't help but shrink back into the shadows again. Although this bulky and thick can-like heavy armor couldn't shrink much at all, the only reason he could hide without being discovered was that the rock he chose was big enough to block his body.

"Ok?"

Kevin continued to spy on the fight between the two monsters, and his gaze suddenly stopped when it passed somewhere.

The leaves there seem to be shaking at an odd frequency. Did something else just pass by?

He subconsciously looked in that direction twice, and then vaguely saw a figure who seemed to be wearing a set of ice-blue armor.

Is it the hunter from the village?

Kevin chuckled. He didn't know how strong this hunter was, but his concealment skills were indeed a bit lacking.

He glanced at them a few more times, but had no intention of greeting the other party. After all, he had a mission to complete. If he finished the hunt earlier, he would have the confidence to return to the village to see his apprentice.

Kevin refocused his attention on the Thunder Wolf Dragon. Judging from the current situation, the Thunder Wolf Dragon actually lost the fight.

This blue bear beast subspecies is really fierce...

Seeing that the Thunder Wolf Dragon gave up the idea of seizing the territory, it roared symbolically, turned around and started to flee. Kevin also prepared to avoid the giant bear's sight and followed quietly.

At this moment, he noticed out of the corner of his eye that the hunter had actually come out of his hiding place on his own initiative and made some noise to attract the attention of the giant bear.

'idiot! ’

Kevin immediately forgot about tracking the Thunder Wolf Dragon. Were the local hunters so clueless? They'd just seen how formidable this bear was, yet they dared to expose themselves so carelessly?! He untied the Destiny Force from behind and rushed forward, ready to rescue this reckless hunter.

The next moment, the step he had just taken stopped.

Because he saw the "idiot" in his heart took off his helmet, waved his hands and shouted at the giant bear:

"Bear Two!"

The moment the giant bear heard the voice, the ferocious aura on its body disappeared immediately. The bear's face, which looked particularly ferocious due to the blood, now revealed a clear sense of stupidity.

It stretched out its four legs and charged forward. When it got close, it slid on its buttocks and kicked up mud along the way. Finally, it stopped steadily in front of Lin Lin, and then, it stretched out its tongue and licked him fiercely.

"Hey..."

Lin Lin wiped the saliva from his face in disgust. Fortunately, it was still raining heavily, soaking him thoroughly, saving him the trouble of washing his face.

"Roar?"

Xiong Er suddenly turned his head and looked over here. He just felt some movement approaching.

Lin Lin stroked Xiong Er's head and then looked over - Xiong Er's fur was now thick and hard, like steel needles, and even a little prickly to the touch. It was not as soft and fluffy as before and was not easy to stroke.

Kevin paused for a moment, put the shield axe back, and walked out rather awkwardly.

He was wearing a helmet, so his face couldn't be seen clearly, and his voice sounded muffled because of the helmet's obstruction.

"Hello, I'm just passing by..."

When Xiong Er saw that the person who came out was a humanoid creature with two hands and two feet, he turned his head and growled at Lin Lin inquiringly.

This guy looks two or three times stronger than the bipeds I've seen before. Is he one of your kind?
Lin Lin curled his lips, ignored Xiong Er's confusion, and instead carefully observed the other party's physique and protective gear, which were even more exaggerated than his own.

The shape of this heavy armor looks slightly familiar, but it is not as recognizable at a glance as the Fire Dragon Suit and the Thunder Wolf Suit. Lin Lin thought for a while and finally recalled the material used for the protective gear through the exhaust hole-like structure on the armor.

This is the armored dragon suit!
The Armored Dragon, the adult form of the Rock Dragon, mainly lives in volcanic areas and occasionally appears in swamps and other areas. Its strength is in no way inferior to that of the top of the conventional ecological niche, the Rathalos. In fact, because of its extremely large size, it may be more difficult for hunters to fight with it.

When Lin Lin returned to Jieyun Village from Lockrak, he was attacked by a horned dragon. He was able to survive that time only because Coconut Date and Tiao Tiao worked together to lure the dragon to a rock dragon, where they started fighting.

At present, near Jieyun Village, the only hunter who has the ability to defeat Kailong, apart from the three superior hunters who came to support, is perhaps Manjusri, the hammer user of Yanhuo Village.

The weapon behind the man in front of him looked quite familiar. It was a shield axe. The blade was brown, similar to that of a ceratops, and there were two curved black horns on the surface of the shield. The shape was almost the same as that of a ceratops.

To sum up, a male, a high-ranking hunter, wielding a Blackhorn Shield Axe, who is this person? It's so hard to guess.
(This thing is a version trap in Iceborne. In the World Period, the shield axe has not been weakened because its energy bottle has not been weakened. In addition, the horned dragon weapon has a very high panel, so it is still very comfortable to use it to attack the main body.)
