Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 53 Huang Tiaotiao scores twice
Although this oasis is small, compared with the entire sea of sand, it still seems quite vast for this man and a cat.

While identifying the vegetation in front of him, Lin Lin told Date the knowledge he had memorized from Kevin's books and Rachel's teachings, letting it know what kind of traces might be left by monsters and what kind of traces came from the power of nature.

And Coconut Date listened very carefully, nodding from time to time to show that he remembered it.

"Look here, the ground here seems a little softer than before. This is the sign of a creature digging here."

Lin Lin pinched the ground, which was a mixture of sand and soil, and stood up.

"Let's go. Let's first find the water source in this oasis. If there are sand dragons active nearby, we'll definitely be able to find more obvious traces."

When he was in Jieyun Village, Lin Lin occasionally read Sophia's monster encyclopedia. According to the records in it, after entering the breeding season, female sand dragons will have the habit of entering the oasis water source to lay eggs. Although it is now approaching the end of the breeding season, it is at least a direction, which is much better than searching blindly like a headless fly.

The sky gradually darkened. After more than an hour of exploration, Lin Lin finally found his target. However, the water source in front of him was more like a quagmire than a lake. If it didn't rain for another month or two, this mud pit would probably dry up.

"Boss, what should we do now, meow?"

There was no sign of the sand dragon, but there were traces of several armored dragons ahead. Date clenched the cat pick in his hand, feeling a little frustrated.

"It's normal not to find anything for a while, don't be discouraged."

Not long after Lin Lin discovered the armored dragons, one of them also discovered him and immediately rushed towards him like a rocket with its hooves.

Lin Lin grinned and drew his weapon. "Now that things have come to this, let's eat first."

……

The Ankylosaurus passed away peacefully and turned into a delicious steak that kept turning on the grill.

Lin Lin's appetite was aroused by the aroma, but the dates didn't seem so appetizing.

As a little cat, it was the first time for it to witness the hunter's bloody hunting, followed by the bloody skinning. No wonder it had no appetite at the moment.

Lin Lin took out the water bag and threw it to it. "Drink some water and eat slowly. It's important to maintain sufficient physical strength in the hunting grounds. If you don't eat because you have no appetite, you will have no strength during the battle."

Eat more, be stronger and have more endurance. This is the simple truth that Lin Lin has learned from personal experience. He has suffered losses in terms of physical fitness several times.

"Good meow..."

Dates don't have much of an appetite, but some dragons are extremely hungry. If they really can't survive by eating sand, they will probably have to eat dirt.

A slight rustling sound came into his ears not far behind him. Lin Lin turned his head suddenly and met a pair of orange-red eyes.

It was a small bird-dragon monster with orange and green stripes on its body and two sharp fangs in its mouth.

"Gahhhhh!"

Lin Lin turned off the valve of the barbecue grill, stood up and set up his sword and shield, and did not forget to comfort Coconut Date.

"Don't panic, it's just a yellow speed dragon."

The Yellow Speed Dragon, a bird-dragon monster living in the desert area, has the nickname of Yellow Jumping. It is not very strong, about the same as its distant relative the Little Dog Dragon, and can be solved with an axe.

Saliva kept dripping from the mouth of the yellow jumping creature. It lowered its body, took an attacking posture, and slowly approached Lin Lin bit by bit.

After waiting for several seconds, the opponent just kept this posture and closed the distance, but never launched an attack. Lin Lin felt a little strange, so he paid some attention to his surroundings.

Velociraptors are highly social creatures, and they might even employ a "pretend to lure the enemy" tactic. The yellow velociraptor quickly closed in to within three or four meters, a distance ideal for launching an attack. Lin Lin tightened his grip on the hilt, ready to unleash a powerful GP.

Then he watched helplessly as the yellow speed dragon lowered its head and tore off a piece of flesh from the remains of the hard-armored dragon with a fierce bite. Then it jumped back without hesitation to create distance, turned around and ran away, disappearing under the cover of vegetation.

Lin Lin held his breath for a long time before spitting out two letters, "MD!"

You idiot, you're the one who's doing this to me, right?
Lin Lin listened carefully, but didn't hear any inner voice, which meant that the other party had already run far away. So, did that guy really come here just to grab a piece of meat?

No wonder I heard the noise with my ears instead of sensing the aggressive voice in my heart.

Helplessly sitting back down by the grill, Lin Lin waved his hands, "It's okay. This guy... made my meat half-cooked."

"If I start baking it again now, it will definitely not taste as good as the one I baked it in one go."

"Boss meow, that guy?"

"Hey, don't worry about it, it's already gone far away, just keep grilling."

"This way, meow! Boss is so awesome! He scared the monster away in no time, meow!"

amount……

"Ahem," Lin Lin blushed and changed the subject. "Let's grill some meat and hum some tunes!"

He had just hummed half of the tune when the rustling sound came from behind him again. Lin Lin turned his head and saw that it was the yellow jumping bird again, still in the same aggressive posture.

Lin Lin: ...

After carefully sensing what this guy was thinking, Lin Lin's mouth twitched. You're here again?

This guy's mind was still thinking the same thing as before, using an aggressive posture to distract himself, and then taking the opportunity to grab a piece of meat and run away...

But Lin Lin didn't dare to continue grilling with his back to it. After all, the fact that it wasn't aggressive now didn't mean it wouldn't be aggressive in the future. What if this guy saw an opportunity and attacked him from behind?

Although I have this set of dog dragon armor on me, I won't be seriously injured if this guy hits me, but this is in front of Coconut Date. If I lose face on my first hunt, it will be a big joke.

After turning off the grill again, Lin Lin turned around to face the yellow jumping snake, but this time he did not draw his weapon. He just watched it use the same trick again to take away another piece of raw meat.

"Boss, didn't you say it ran away, meow?"

"He ran away just now, but maybe he finished eating the meat and came back again."

"Then why do I feel like it will come back, meow?"

Lin Lin: ...

Damn, that makes sense. Just now, this guy thought he had succeeded in his plan to score twice, and he was so happy. Who knows, he might come back for a third try later?

Lin Lin turned his head and looked at the barbecue that had been interrupted twice in a row. Obviously, if he grilled the meat again, it would be inedible...

"If this thing comes back later, I'll stuff this piece of meat into its mouth!"

　I saw some feedback from book friends that I think it went off track. In fact, according to my thinking, the hunting plot and the plot of getting along with monsters should be intertwined with each other. Maybe due to lack of experience, the proportion of the two was a bit unbalanced in the beginning. The author will work hard to correct it.
