Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 301 Rescue (4K)

In the past few days, although Brother Lin Lin would run into the wild from time to time, he would basically come back on the same day, and at most he would bring Tiao Tiao with him. It was not like now, when even the baby Dakong was nowhere to be seen.

The longer he waited, the more anxious he became. Ye Zi sighed, glanced at the bowl of cold soup, and stood up suddenly.

The feeling of uneasiness in her heart became stronger and stronger, and she didn't want to wait any longer.

Just when she couldn't hold back any longer and wanted to go find someone, she suddenly noticed a fiery red shadow flying towards her from the horizon, and she was subconsciously startled.

Is that...Dakong?
Ye Zi stood there and waited for a few seconds. When Dakong flapped his wings twice and landed on the ground, and at the same time let go of the date in his claws, her feeling of uneasiness became even stronger.

"Jujube, why are you and Dakong the only ones back? Where's Brother Lin Lin?"

The furry ball that was thrown to the ground by Dakong casually picked off the fallen leaves covering his face. After seeing the identity of the person in front of him, his nose felt sore and his emotions were a little uncontrollable on the spot. His voice was choked with sobs:

"Yezi meow! Boss, he was... he was..."

Just by looking at Coconut Date's reaction, Ye Zi felt as if a bolt of thunder had struck her from the clear sky, shaking her whole body.

No! Will not!
Brother Lin Lin is so powerful, how could anything happen to him!
Ye Zi forced himself to take a deep breath, then squatted down and pressed his hands on Ye Zao's shoulders, saying in a deep voice:

"Don't be impatient. What's going on? Tell me slowly!"

Coconut Date had been very nervous along the way, so when it saw a familiar person, it couldn't control its emotions for a moment. But it also knew that the situation was urgent, so it took a few deep breaths like Ye Zi, and its emotions gradually stabilized.

"The boss was planning to go out and teach Dakong hunting meow today! We set out north and traveled over a hundred kilometers. After hunting a large wild boar, we encountered a red bird meow!"

"That red bird attacked us, and while we were fighting, its cry summoned a Tyrannosaurus Rex!"

Tyrannosaurus?!

Ye Zi's pupils shrank subconsciously. Although monsters like Tyrannosaurus had never been found in Yanhuo Village, after deciding to follow Lin Lin out for training, she also looked for some information about monsters in the Hunter Guild, including the Tyrannosaurus.

Although the recorded information was relatively brief, it left a deep impression on Ye Zi after reading it.

The guild classified this monster as a seven-star dangerous monster. Due to its insatiable appetite and its indiscriminate attack on all living things, coupled with its terrifying destructive power, it is considered a terrifying monster that is as dangerous as an ancient dragon.

"Brother Lin Lin... is he, is he okay?"

Logically, if a four-star or five-star hunter encountered a Tyrannosaurus, it would be difficult for him to survive unless he was extremely lucky. But emotionally, Ye Zi was unwilling to believe that the man had an accident like this.

Coconut Date shook his head blankly, "I don't know... at least he was fine before we parted... "

Ye Zi stood up and was about to walk out, but Ye Zao quickly called her, "Wait a minute, meow! Where are you going, meow?"

Ye Zi looked back, "Do I even need to ask? Of course I'm going to save Brother Lin Lin!"

Coconut tugged at the cat fur on his cheeks frantically. "The question is, can you defeat Devil May Cry meow by yourself?"

Ye Zi pursed her lips and said nothing.

The answer is obvious. She doesn't have that ability yet...

"Boss said before, meow, a monster like the Deviljho can only be dealt with by a high-ranking hunter, meow!"

Ye Zi took a deep breath and asked:

"What should we do? Mr. Kevin and the others haven't returned yet. Should we go to the guild and post a rescue mission? Then, we hope a high-ranking hunter happens to pass by and accepts the commission to rescue Brother Lin Lin?"

Date opened his mouth but didn't say anything.

In that case, what's the difference between that and giving up on rescue?
Ye Zi's fair palm gripping the insect stick unconsciously exerted force, and the veins under his skin bulged, becoming particularly conspicuous:
"I'll go to the gathering place to announce the rescue mission, then find some people to go with me and rescue Brother Lin Lin! You and Dakong should rest for a while and prepare some supplies. We'll still need you to lead the way when the time comes!"

She looked at Coconut Date's slightly worried eyes and said firmly:
"If I have to watch the people I love get into danger just because it's dangerous, what am I doing as a hunter?"

Date opened his mouth, sighed, and nodded.

After all, there is really no better way.

I just hope the boss can hold on for a while longer...

……

Inside the assembly hall.

Konoha looked at Ye Zi, who was already quite critical, and rubbed her ears in disbelief, "What did you just say?"

Ye Zi took a deep breath, suppressed his impatience, and said word by word:

"A Tyrannosaurus Rex has appeared in the stream area. Quasi-five-star hunter Lin Lin is in danger and needs urgent rescue!"

She pointed in the direction they came from, "This is the information that Lin Lin's hunting cat Yezao said!"

A Deviljho!?! Why is Jieyun plagued by so many disasters?! We finally managed to suppress the Thunder Wolf Dragon, but now another Deviljho! This monster must be reported immediately and urgently dispatched!

But Lin Lin is in danger again and needs rescue. Shouldn't we confirm the emergency commission first and then find the right person to take it?
After all, Chihua had only been the poster girl for about a year. She lacked experience and was not very calm when faced with things. When she suddenly heard the information that Yako said, she was a little confused. Fortunately, there was a reliable senior Sasayuki next to her. After hearing what she said, she filled out the form without saying a word, and asked Yako about the specific time, place and other related matters while filling it out.

Seeing that Sasayuki took over her work in an orderly manner, Konoha was able to catch her breath and finally had time to sort out her thoughts.

She didn't need to worry about the rescue mission, so she hurriedly ran to find the alcoholic president who had drunk some wine again to report it. This kind of thing should be left to these bigwigs to worry about!
Sasayuki moved very quickly. Within two minutes, she had posted the brand new task form on the crimson bulletin board, allowing everyone entering and leaving the meeting place to see the conspicuous red commission.

A hunter who had just finished soaking in the hot springs, relaxed his muscles, and was about to go out to collect came over curiously and read carefully for a moment. Then his face turned pale and he wanted to find the poster girl to cancel the commission he had just accepted. However, Konno had already run out to report to the manager, and Sasayuki was whispering to comfort Yako. He glanced around and didn't find a suitable opportunity, so he had no choice but to go back to the bathing area and wait.

Even a five-star hunter was forced to send out a distress signal. Such a terrifying monster had appeared near the stream. He didn't dare go out into the wild until that creature was defeated...

At the counter, Sasayuki posted the order documents and returned to Yezi.

She stared at the expression on Ye Zi's face, and after a moment she said:
"Listen, Ye Zi, I know you have a good relationship with Lin Lin, but the Deviljhoven is more than you can handle right now. Don't do anything stupid! This rescue mission will be sent as an urgent matter to the Hunter Guild Clubs in other surrounding areas. Other high-ranking hunters will handle it when the time comes."

"How long will it take?"

Sasayuki looked at Ye Zi's almond-shaped eyes which were slightly bloodshot, sighed, but did not speak in the end.

After all, no matter how urgent the mission was, it would take at least two or three days for a qualified hunter to see it and rush over. And if someone could hold out for that long in the jaws of a Devil May Cry, then they wouldn't need anyone else's help at all...

"Thanks, Sister Sasayuki, I won't do anything stupid."

Ye Zi forced a smile and hurried away from the counter. Her strength alone was too weak, but if a few more people came, even if they couldn't repel the Deviljho, there should still be hope for them to escape from that monster's jaws with Lin Lin...

The first person she looked for was Sister Manjusri, with whom she had a very good relationship in childhood and who was also very powerful. Unfortunately, she was not there. After asking around, she found out that she had just accepted a mission to hunt the Explosive Hammer Dragon in the volcano two days ago and was no longer in Jieyun's territory.

So her second target was Brave, but before she could find the location of Brave's cabin, she met an unexpected person.

"Sister Yezi? Why do you look so worried? What happened?"

Ye Zixu looked at the man in front of him. He was just a two-star hunter. If he were to face the Tyrannosaurus Rex, he probably wouldn't be able to survive more than two attacks even with the support of his teammates. Pass!

"There's nothing for you to do here. I'm very busy right now."

Shiyuan frowned. What was going on? I felt like I'd already boosted her favorability quite a bit these past few days. Why did she suddenly change her attitude?

Although she wanted to ask, but seeing the unconcealable anxiety in Ye Zi's eyes, she obediently stepped aside.

So Ye Zi knocked on Brave's door.

This time he was lucky. Brav happened to be not on a mission and was sleeping in the cabin with his sword in his arms. He was awakened by a knock on the door. He stuck his head out with a bit of a bad temper, and saw Ye Zi at the door with a bad look on her face.

"?"

Before he could say anything, Ye Zi had already explained the whole story in a simple and concise manner.

In the end, without giving Brave much time to react, Ye Zi stared at him? "

Brave: ...

He blinked, trying hard to absorb the huge amount of information that Ye Zi said, and after half a second he gritted his teeth viciously.

"Go! Why not? Lin Lin is my brother who has shared my life!"

They have hunted together many times, faced ferocious and huge monsters together, and supported each other and saved each other countless times. There is no exaggeration in the statement that they are friends for life.

"But you have to wait a moment. I need to think about which knife to take with me."

This is the trouble of the swordsman. He now has three swords in his hands, one with ice attribute, one with fire attribute, and one with poison attribute. They are all very good weapons. When he hunts now, he deliberately chooses more suitable weapons according to different targets.

——Unlike Ye Zi, she now basically uses the dragon bone stick for hunting. Originally, the materials obtained after hunting the Thunder Wolf Dragon could be used to make a thunder-attribute insect-controlling stick, but this girl insisted that she had already got enough for this set of armor, and the remaining scattered materials would be kept for use in making armor for Lin Lin.

"Demonosaurus... Let me think about it. That creature seems to be quite resistant to attribute energy. Fire and ice attributes are not suitable. Then let's use that Flying Dragon Sword [Cui]!"

While Brave was choosing weapons and putting on protective gear, Ye Zi, who was outside the door, had his arm armor pulled by Shion who was eavesdropping nearby.

Ye Zi: “?”

Shion: "I want to go with you!"

Yezi: ...

She reached out and rubbed the little girl's head, ruffling her soft hair.

"You're just a two-star little Karami, it's better not to get involved in something so dangerous."

"No! I'm serious!"

Ziyuan angrily slapped the hand off her head. The master hit her, then the senior brother hit her, and now this sister who is not even the future sister-in-law is also rubbing her. Her height is stagnant like this!

She tidied her hair and then said seriously:
"Sister Yezi, think about it. Whether it's you, my senior brother, or that swordsman just now, you're all melee hunters. You're better at fighting than us ranged hunters, but when it comes to saving people, can you be as good as us ranged hunters who can just raise our hands and fire a bullet to save people?"

"But... that's a Tyrannosaurus Rex. The risk for you to go is too great..."

To be honest, Ye Zi was deeply moved, but she had not lost her mind yet.

"Although I'm only two stars, aren't you all only four stars, Sister Yezi? Is there a big difference in front of a seven-star dangerous Tyrannosaurus?"

Yezi: ...

It seems, indeed?
"Besides, I'm a ranged player. With you guys directly attracting attention, I'll be in less danger!"

"Besides, my master is Sister Rachel! When it comes to lurking, concealing, and tracking, you may not be able to match me!"

Shion put her hands on her hips, her expression slightly smug.

Yezi: ...

Oh no, she seems to be really convinced...

"I'm ready! Let's go!"

The door opened and Brave, dressed neatly, stepped out with a determined look on his face.

Ye Zi took a deep breath, then nodded to Shion, "Okay, I'll give you ten minutes to prepare the ammunition. Meet at the village entrance in ten minutes."

……

ten minutes later.

Village entrance.

Looking at the entire truckload of ammunition that Shion dragged out, Ye Zi and Brave looked at each other in bewilderment.

Is this amount of ammunition a bit too exaggerated?

"Exaggeration? Isn't this normal? I always do this when I hunt..."

Finally, Ye Zi sighed, "We're going to rescue people, not hunt. Do you think we can hunt a seven-star Devil Rex with just a few of us?"

Shion blinked her eyes: "It seems... so..."

"Try to reduce your load as much as possible and only take what you need. I'll let Xiaobai help you carry the ammunition box."
