Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 288 Fire Dragon's Signature Sky-Broken Kick
The rushing water washes the stones on the shore, making them round.

A short, thick hoof covered in mud suddenly fell down, kicking the stone away and rolling to the side.

The rough bony fangs stretched into the river water and stirred it constantly, turning up the mud and sand covering the stones, and also making this small area of water turbid.

"hum chi hum chi"

The wild boar suddenly grunted with excitement, then arched its mouth hard and took a crab hidden under the mud and sand into its mouth.

The crab's exoskeleton was no match for the wild boar's teeth. With a series of crunching sounds, the wild boar breathed a sigh of satisfaction.

Although their favorite food is various delicious mushrooms, as monsters of the toothed species rather than the herbivorous species, they do not always eat vegetarian food, especially now that various fungi and mushrooms have proliferated in large quantities, enough for them to eat until their stomachs are full, so they need to change their taste from time to time.

Lin Lin looked around at the terrain and found that there was a tall banyan tree not far to the left of the big wild boar. The vines were dense, which made it easy to climb and could also cover his body. He patted Dakong's head gently, signaling it to stay here, watch carefully, and learn well.

Although he was wearing heavy armor, Lin Lin deliberately slowed down his pace and still made no sound. He quietly moved behind the banyan tree. After a few nimble leaps, he climbed to the top of the tree and looked down at the big wild boar not far below.

Of course, Lin Lin could just rush over, take out his knife and kill the wild boar, but that was not in line with the habits of the Fire Dragon family and would not serve any teaching purpose.

After estimating the distance, Lin Lin took a deep breath, grabbed a vine beside him, pushed hard with his feet, and swung out like a strange monkey or fox.

The shadows in the sky blocked out the sunlight, and the whistling wind alerted the wild boar. It looked up reflexively and saw a black shadow pressing down from the sky.

It's a predator!
The wild boar reacted instantly, and then tried to run away from the opponent's attack range. However, just as the idea of running came into its mind and the command had not yet been transmitted along the nerves to the muscles, its neck and waist were simultaneously subjected to heavy pressure. Accompanied by a burst of severe pain, it completely lost control of its limbs.

But Lin Lin had already landed on it accurately.

And he did not ride in the common riding posture of hunters. Instead, he stretched out his legs, aimed his left foot at the wild boar's lumbar vertebrae, and his right foot at its cervical vertebrae, and used the kinetic energy converted from gravitational potential energy to kick up.

Lin Lin's current strength is enough to easily overturn the wild boar, not to mention the weight of his heavy armor and weapons. With just one step, he crushed the two most fragile bones of the wild boar on the spot.

At this moment, although the big pig was still alive, it had collapsed on the ground and completely lost its ability to move.

Lin Lin didn't let it suffer for long. He directly stabbed the skinning knife into its throat, ending its life completely.

After doing all this, Lin Lin turned his head and looked in the direction of Dakong. Although the set of actions just now seemed long, it actually happened in a flash. He was a little worried about what would happen if Dakong didn't see it clearly.

However, after seeing Dakong's performance, he realized that he had indeed overestimated it. The male Rathalos had excellent eyesight and could see everything on the ground even from high above. How could it not see his movements? At this moment, Dakong was staring at the wild boar at his feet, his claws unconsciously grasping the soil beneath him, as if imitating Lin Lin's previous movements.

Lin Lin smiled slightly, waved at it, and pointed at the corpse at his feet, "Come and try it?"

He was not worried at all that Dakong would not understand what he meant. Ever since Dakong was born, he had found that this guy was so smart that he hardly looked like a monster. He could easily understand whatever he said to him. If it had not looked confused when other people were talking to it, Lin Lin would have suspected that it had learned the hunter language.

Dakong roared excitedly, flapped his wings and flew into the air, then tried hard to adjust his flying posture and dived towards the wild boar's corpse.

Lin Lin made way in advance when Dakong took off, and stood aside to observe Dakong's movements. Then he saw Dakong stretching his two claws forward with all his strength. With the speed of diving, the power of this kick was not inferior to Lin Lin's previous demonstration, and even surpassed it.

However, it was Dakong's first time to fly like this, and he couldn't control his aim. He dived too far, and his claws passed over the wild boar's corpse on the ground and directly stepped into the river in front of him, splashing water all over the sky, making him look very embarrassed.

Dakong flapped its wings and resumed its flying posture, slowly landing next to Lin Lin. Although there was no change in expression on its scaly head, Lin Lin could feel that it was quite depressed.

Lin Lin took two steps forward, grabbed Dakong's head with his hands, and pressed his forehead against it:
"You've done very well. Don't worry. We'll practice slowly in the future."

In fact, Lin Lin was very surprised by Dakong's comprehension. When he hunted the wild boar just now, he imitated the "Heavenly Cruel Kick" that had beaten countless new and old hunters in the game. However, humans and fire dragons have different body structures after all. Even if he tried his best to imitate, there was still a big gap. He was still worried that he might mislead Dakong, but Dakong's flying posture just now was almost completely consistent with his impression, so he put aside this worry.

"Well, we shouldn't stay here for long. Let's fill our stomachs and prepare to return to the village."

……

Just as Lin Lin began to skin the wild boar's body and divide the spoils among the members of the "tribe", the area downstream of the river not far away was also quite lively.

A bird-dragon monster with bright red feathers jumped around a bit, then stared intently at the water. Through the sunlight reflected from the water, active fish swimming beneath the surface could be vaguely seen.

(As shown in the picture, a subspecies of the painted bird, the red painted bird)
After a brief observation, it has locked onto a sashimi fish that is fat and tender enough under the water surface. It is just waiting for the fish to approach the water surface, and it will pick it up at lightning speed.

"Wow!"

Suddenly, there were splashes on the water surface. A head that was much smaller than the red bird's head suddenly approached, dived into the water at lightning speed, and instantly grabbed a small fish.

The whole red bird was stunned for a moment, and half a second later it turned its head to look at the guy who disrupted its fishing plan. However, the other party seemed to be afraid of its strong body. After taking the fish, it ran directly to twenty meters away without any hesitation and enjoyed its delicious meal peacefully.
