What is the source of the change? This is the only thing he wants to know.

Of course, the Master is not really a person who follows a set process or form, but a being with an independent consciousness, so maybe he could have options other than exercising during meditation, such as listening to stories.

Alcaide, who is full of curiosity about the world, actually enjoys listening to stories, but he doesn't really like drama as a form of expression.

In comparison, he quite likes old men chatting with him while smoking a cigarette or drinking tea, and it would be even better if they could give him candy.

So, how do you confirm whether your guess is correct?

His choice was to ask directly.

[Dad] once said that it is meaningless to keep many things in your heart. If you don’t say them out loud, others will only make blind guesses based on their own experience. Blind guesses may not lead to the correct answer and may even lead to the completely opposite wrong answer.

My father also said that if you want to know something, just ask, and if you don’t understand something, just ask directly. Although there is nothing wrong with trying things when you are young, it is always better to make fewer mistakes than to make more mistakes. You have to have a basic understanding of the things you try before you can explore them.

After pondering for a moment, the man as tall as a hill nodded.

"Yes, that is the name of my least successful student."

"What kind of person is he?"

"You are using his body now."

Alcaide looked at his hands, which were born without thumbs.

"Is there a mirror?"

"You can't see clearly. Even I have forgotten what he looks like."

Having said that, the master still handed over the giant sword.

"I don't use that kind of thing, so I don't have a deep impression of it. It's difficult to replicate it in this place, so I'll just use the sword body."

It's a very reasonable statement, but it doesn't matter if it's unreasonable. Anyway, Alcade can't prove that the other party is fooling him. Even if he proves it, it will be useless. He doesn't intend to haggle with the other party over such things.

"Hmm - I can't see clearly."

"So, why did you expose this matter?"

"Why? If I must say... to confirm whether I can play the emotional card with you and listen to your story during the break?"

After thinking for a long time, Alcaide managed to find words that could describe his curiosity to hear the story in a less casual way.

"You are given this rare opportunity to learn skills from the pre-universe era and yet you use it to listen to stories. Judging from your willpower, you must be quite a man. How can you still have the leisure to do so? Are the enemies so weak that they can withstand a single blow?"

"So far, I have encountered guys who were basically defeated with one strike. Only in the past two days did I encounter a guy who could withstand several of my attacks."

"Recall that scene, relax your mind, and let me see the opponent's strength."

Alcaide did so.

"A supernatural beast? No, it feels like some kind of shadow creature that is closer to the demon spirits. Are there more monsters like this in your era?"

"What is the Shadow Realm?"

"The enemy from the Ming Realm."

"What is the Mingjie?"

"My camp."

"Oh, so is there a story to listen to?"

"You really don't listen to anything... I only remember the stories from my own teaching days, and they're very boring."

"It doesn't matter. I just want to hear a story. It doesn't matter if it's a good story or a bad story. It doesn't cost anything anyway, so there's nothing wrong with listening to it."

"Well, let me tell you a story about a child who wanted to become a Hunter."

……

There is such a kind of person in the universe——

They have great power.

They act recklessly.

They travel across the universe just to hunt powerful enemies.

In their eyes, the struggle between the Light Realm and the Shadow Realm seems to be just a grand wild hunt. Even if they are genuine members of the Light Realm, the group of guys called "Hunters" still do their own thing.

Any race that forms a civilization will have one or more collective organizations in the history of its existence. The Storm Union of the Storm Galaxy is one of them.

The protagonist of the story is a hunter's child born on the planet Xun Fenglin in the Storm Galaxy. His name is Mu Ying, a name that implies arrogance and independence. He is a child who has suffered a lot of misfortunes and will become the strongest hunter in the universe in the future...

……

"It feels epic, Master!"

"Shut up! Don't interrupt me at a time like this!"

【351】The beginning of the wooden eagle's pursuit of the hunter

Xun Fenglin Planet, abbreviated as Fengxing, this name is as common in the Storm Galaxy as the dogs in the countryside are called Dahuang and Dahei.

But this planet is actually quite special because it is a [retirement planet].

About one-third of the residents are hunters who were once famous in the universe, whose hands were once stained with blood or did things that were no better than having blood on their hands.

However, the retired hunters here are guys who nominally retired from fighting or are tired of fighting. They have hunted the lives of a large number of powerful enemies on the battlefields of the war between the Light Realm and the Shadow Realm, and successfully gained the endorsement of the Court of Light (the highest judicial body in the Light Realm of this cosmic era). They cannot be used as an excuse by any enemies to cause trouble in this place.

You have to endorse it. When these lunatics are belligerent, they don't distinguish between friend and foe. On the battlefield between the two worlds, no matter whether the people around them are from the light world or the shadow world, they will just start killing. Even acquaintances who are also hunters will be killed in a rage. It can be called a mudslide on the battlefield.

If such guys are not in the battlefield between the two worlds and are allowed to run rampant in the universe, they will only cause huge damage. In fact, before participating in the battlefield between the two worlds, this kind of existence that occupies most of the hunters will destroy the universe.

Break into a planet, stir up disputes, and enjoy fierce confrontations. Some extreme people will even challenge all intelligent species on the planet, and then try to defeat the entire planet by themselves.

Success or failure is not important to hunters; the most important thing is whether they can challenge their limits.

Power, delicious food, treasures... They are looking for the most beautiful things in the world and are willing to sacrifice their lives for them.

In the long history of the world, a tribe was born on the star Xun Fenglin, and its name was the Wood Tribe.

Having a "木" character in a name is considered a tribal culture, but it is only because someone has chosen a short name, and names that are difficult to pronounce or have repeated pronunciations are not liked, so the character is added to add diversity to the name.

But compared to the naming culture that few people care about, the planting science derived from the skills this tribe learned from hunters and the natural environment of the planet is more widely spread.

According to legend, the Wood Tribe has advanced knowledge of planting and the pharmacology of their crops. Every adult member of the Wood Tribe (twenty-five years old if converted to Earthlings) is a high-level talent qualified to serve as a professional doctor on other planets.

And because there are many descendants of hunters in the tribe, the entire tribe often communicates frequently with hunters who have just arrived on this planet, so the hunters' experiences are also adapted into various stories to teach children.

Therefore, the spirit of yearning to become a hunter, or to challenge the limits of the world, is widely spread in this tribe.

This is true even for a wooden eagle that is born with a disability.

The human body structure of the Wood Tribe is very similar to that of Earthlings, with limbs, heads, and five fingers on hands and feet. Although there are differences in internal organs, the difference is not that big if we only consider combat.

Therefore, the wooden eagle without a thumb will understand how huge his inherent disadvantage is in combat.

He could only improve his learning of magnetic field power as much as possible.

Magnetic field is the most universal force in the universe.

It is a form of expression of willpower and the most efficient way to use will energy.

It is precisely because of the war between the light world and the shadow world that this most efficient force has been vigorously promoted.

Because of its power and efficiency, the upper and lower limits of the magnetic field are amazing.

A low one can only provide some assistance other than force when massaging, but a high one is enough to distort reality according to one's own will.

Mu Ying has a good talent in this area, but if compared with the geniuses outside, his level is not worth mentioning.

Moreover, before the magnetic field force becomes strong enough, everyone fights with bayonets at close range, and Wooden Eagle, who is not qualified to participate in this round, falls into unprecedented depression under such circumstances.

Until one day, the elders of the tribe told him that a hunter planned to select several children in the tribe to be his apprentices and pass on his skills.

Mu Ying is one of the older types among them, with incomplete limbs. The Mu tribe should have consciously avoided recommending him to go out as he would be a burden that would cause trouble to others.

But the Mu tribe values ​​common prosperity.

This tribe, which gathers children of the same age for collective upbringing, has never discriminated against him because of his congenital disability. Instead, they have always been trying to find ways to help him solve this problem.

In fact, the simplest way is human body modification, but both the tribal elders and Wooden Eagle are deeply influenced by the hunters. They think that even if human body modification is required, it must be done by Wooden Eagle himself to be considered [transcendence].

For this tribe, the "urge to transcend" that keeps hunters passionate about their careers has long become something like a philosophy of life.

Mu Ying, who had not grown up enough to transform himself, became a candidate to be the hunter's disciple along with a group of children who were four or five years younger than him.

……

"I know this. Since Mu Ying often performed worse than his companions, but was loved by the elders in the tribe because of his character, he was successfully accepted as a disciple with the help of the adults' money! Right? Right!"

Looking at Alcade's shining eyes, the master felt that his understanding of this person might not be sufficient.

"…Why is your first reaction to impress the hunter by giving him money instead of working hard?"

He was speechless. What kind of thinking was this kid having? How could he think like that?

"Isn't it?"

Alcaide thought that what he thought was right.

[Dad] mentioned his study experience abroad. He encountered a lot of resistance there because of his identity. There is serious discrimination against Asians in those countries, and a popular way of using connections called recommendation letters is popular. He said that he got a recommendation letter from someone by investing a lot of money. Otherwise, there would be more obstacles in learning medical knowledge at that time, and the time to return to China would have to be greatly delayed.

In China, whether you are asking for help or hiring a new employee, if you don’t have a deep relationship, you have to pass a cigarette to the person, and you need money to bribe people. (Still Yang Wu Qu’s little knowledge of the dark society)

So he thinks aliens might be the same, after all, they all look similar.

After a moment's silence, the master looked up at the sky with a somewhat empty and distant look and answered his question.

"Yes, he was the worst performer among the kids. I just joined Xun Fenglin Star and didn't know anyone there, so I planned to use this method to get closer to him. I didn't plan to find anyone too troublesome, but just wanted to pass on some hunter knowledge that was useful at that time..."

【352】Reasons for becoming a hunter

【Why do you want to become a hunter? 】

This question runs through Mu Ying's entire life.

Because he is handsome? Because he is strong? Because hunters are reckless?

He didn't know how to answer this question.

The young men who were studying with the foreign hunters were all a little younger than him, but they could already state their goals confidently and firmly.

Some do it for wealth. As long as the hunters are not stupid, they have enough power to gain wealth that would take them several lifetimes through normal means.

Some do it for treasure; about one-third of hunters embark on this path for this reason.

If you look closely, there are some who sell treasures for money, some who simply collect treasures, and some who keep treasures...

But that's not my reason.

The master didn't take this too seriously, he just said that having a reason was more motivating to work harder.

Then as time passed, slowly, I was the only one left with my master.

That day, the master asked Mu Ying again:

Why do you want to be a hunter?

Perhaps because there were only two of them, he stated his reasons this time.

“I want to protect my garden and everyone else’s.”

In fact, at the beginning, Wood Eagle learned crop cultivation only because he had no choice.

Although the Wood Tribe treats all offspring equally in their upbringing, there is always competition among living things. If a child approaches adulthood but has not mastered the skills to survive, they will expel him from the tribe without hesitation after he reaches adulthood, leaving him to fend for himself.

Not having a thumb is a much more desperate thing than one might imagine. Many of Mu Ying's instruments cannot be used like ordinary people, so his options in medicine are limited. The only option left for him by the Mu tribe is herbal medicine.

Herb credits include crop cultivation and identification and utilization. The former, because of the unique environment of this planet, a large number of precious plants grow here. Some extremely combat-capable intelligent plants lead the weaker intelligent plants to form an alliance, and live together with the wood clan on this planet.

Because of this premise, the Wood Eagle has far more plant friends than the Wood Tribe people.

As a result, he went from being forced to learn at the beginning to enjoying the process.

By observing the growth of his friends and plants that might become his future friends and solving problems, he gained happiness as a human being.

Living as a gardener became Wood Eagle's future aspiration.

Until one day, a small crack in the shadow world appeared in the garden.

A monster covered in flames came out, destroying the garden, destroying many intelligent plants, and almost killing the wooden eagle.
