Monster Hunter: Wild Pointer

Although his adventures and efforts were ultimately effective and did provide some help to Orlan's hunting, his merits and demerits cannot be offset.

The first thing his father, the surviving hunter, did after regaining his ability to move was to beat his son up.

He ignored warnings, abandoned his sister, and took a risky action by stealing his father's weapons.

He beat up the neighbor who tried to stop him and ran away from the village alone.

He bravely entered a monster's lair and was nearly surrounded and killed by a group of baby spiders deep in the cave.

If you pick any one of these incidents out alone, it would definitely be justified to be beaten.

All in all, Archie's father didn't break his legs. He even thought that he had too good a temper. Even his sister, who usually followed him around, couldn't help but tickle him a few times.

When Aqi was called out by his father to say goodbye to Orlan, his whole face was swollen, he walked with a limp, and there were marks on his arms from being scratched and bitten by his sister.

Aolan looked at it and found it funny.

Since his father had already taught him physics, there was no need for him to teach him anything more.

To be honest, he was quite optimistic about this young man. Although he seemed reckless and adventurous, he actually had a very clear mind. Once his own strength improved and he accumulated more practical experience, he would become an excellent hunter sooner or later.

Not long after Orlan and Searle left the remote village on an airship, another airship with the guild emblem landed in the village.

The leader was an elderly lady who looked to be in her sixties or seventies. A quiet girl wearing glasses and carrying a schoolbag followed closely behind her. Two guild knights also accompanied them as guards.

They are scholars and their students from the Academy, who were sent by the guild to come here to investigate the situation of the Shadow Spider's Lair.

The guild will decide the final solution based on the content and suggestions of their reports.

Following the village hunter, on the way to the spider's nest, the scholar asked the girl in a testing tone.

"Alma, as you just heard, the two adult shadow spiders that built their nest have been killed by hunters. What do you think should be done with the remaining young spiders?"

The girl with glasses thought for two seconds and answered seriously, "The spider's nest is too close to the village. Although the probability of the young spiders growing into adults is very small without the protection of their parents, they are still a threat.

Wouldn't it be better to eliminate them all and then burn down the spider nest?"

The older female scholar paused, her tone filled with helplessness, "Decisiveness is both your strength and your weakness.

Make your decision after you understand the situation, Alma, make your decision after you understand the situation."

Metabetat Gathering House, in front of the mission counter.

Ms. Noa, the poster girl guild leader, held a hot star-shaped branding iron tightly in both hands and nervously brought it close to the Hunter's Notes on the table.

Seeing Miss Noah looking as if she was facing a great enemy, Ser Oran looked at each other and saw the speechless look in each other's eyes.

Previously, Seer had successfully completed the task of being promoted to five stars and returned just in time to provide emergency support to Orlan. It was only now that he had the time to go through the promotion process with the latter.

The steps of verification, settlement, and registration have all been completed, and now we have reached the last step, which is to brand the new star emblem on the cover of the Hunter's Notes.

Once this is completed, they will be officially promoted.

Seeing the cold sweat about to drip down Noya's nose, Saier spoke to comfort him, "It's just a branding on the cover, don't be so nervous."

The sudden voice startled the tense Noah.

"Zi-"

"Ah! How can you talk at this time! It's all wrong!"

"."

Looking at the crooked fifth star besides the four neatly arranged stars on the cover of his Hunter's Notes, Seer fell silent.

Orlan resisted the urge to slap his chest.

It was a close call. If I hadn't insisted on the principle of first come first served and let the poster girl president brand Brother Searle's book first, this crooked star emblem would have fallen on my hunter notes.

Noah also blushed a little. "Well, I know a reliable leatherworker. How about changing the cover of your notebook? I can just report it to the guild headquarters."

"Forget it. It's not a big deal." Sayer sighed and put away his hunter notes.

Then he and Noah looked at Orlan.

It's your turn.

"Well, Miss Noya, how about you give me the branding iron and I can brand it myself under your supervision?" Orlan asked tentatively.

"No!" Noah raised his hands and made a cross sign, firmly refusing. "This branding iron can only be kept and used by the guild leaders of each region. Giving it to him is a serious violation of discipline!"

"Well, well," Olang's brain raced, "how about this? I'll ask a blacksmith to make an iron plate the same size as the notebook cover, and fix it to the cover, leaving space for the star emblem. You can just insert the iron vertically like inserting a key."

He has a mild obsessive-compulsive disorder. If his Hunter's Notes were really branded with a crooked star like Brother Seer's, he would really consider changing the cover.

"Don't you trust me at all?!" Miss Noah glared at him.

"I don't trust you." Orlan answered decisively.

"."

Was he usually too polite to these guys? They were so disrespectful to him. He was the guild leader after all, so weren't they afraid of him giving them a hard time? Huh?!

Of course, I could only curse these words in my heart. If winning over people had to be divided into levels, the guy in front of me would undoubtedly belong to the highest level.

A four-star hunter who is only nineteen years old, he will be tied up in the mouth of the Metabetat gathering place even if he has to be tied up himself!

"boom!"

The door of the meeting hall tavern was pushed open forcefully, and the fence door, which had been polished and maintained to a shiny finish and had a glass-like patina, slammed heavily against the wall.

At this moment, Noah's eyebrows stood up.

What the hell is that?! Did you know that door is made of heavy knotty wood? It's super expensive, okay?!

"I'm back!" Muti pushed the door open carrying a giant package of rock dragon materials.

"."

Noah took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Ms. Muti, you really look full of energy today!"

Muti didn't notice anything unusual and asked anxiously, "Sister Noah, what's going on? Did Oran leave? Did he come back? Who was faster this time, him or me?"

Aolan turned around and waved at her. "Sorry, I took advantage of the distance between us. I win this time."

"Ugh!" Muti slammed the pile of rock dragon materials onto the freshly waxed floor. "This hunt only took me half a day, and I thought I had it won. But all that time was spent on the boat ride back and forth."

Muti said this, but there was not much regret on her face. Her desire to win was not that strong.

Fish balls are the complete opposite.

Looking at the sea buckthorn beside Aolan making a scissors sign at it, Yuwan turned his head away and made a rude "tsk" sound.

Aolan first introduced Saier and Muti to each other, then said to Muti with a smile: "Coincidentally, you have also completed the promotion task.

Let's go to the blacksmith shop and ask him to make a stopper for the branding emblem."

Muti was confused. "Why do you need a blacksmith? What is a limiter?"

Noah forced a humble smile on his face. "In short, it's some kind of tool. Go ahead, I'll personally reimburse you."

"."

Seeing the other person's look, Aolan felt a little embarrassed.

He pushed the Hunter's Notes, which hadn't been put away yet, forward and said, "Forget it. Just poke it. Just don't poke it too crooked. If that doesn't work, I'll just change the cover as you said."

Muti, who understood a little but not everything, also took out his notes and said, "Are you going to get the star emblem for promotion to four stars? Then I'll join in."

These rock dragon materials should be enough to guarantee a successful hunt. Please check them out!"

Looking at the two hunter's notes pushed in front of him, Noah even felt a little touched.

She put the soldering iron back into the fire to heat it for a while. In order to prevent her hands from shaking, she simply lay down on the task counter and slowly moved the soldering iron in her hand closer to the cover of the Hunter's Notes, centimeter by centimeter.

The sound of the hot iron touching the leather cover was special and pleasant. Amidst the slight smell of burning, a well-balanced star emblem appeared on the cover of Orlan and Muti's Hunter's Notes.

"Isn't this printed beautifully?" Orlan put away his hunter's notes with satisfaction, and did not forget to praise the poster girl president.

"That's right!" Noah wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "My hands were just shaking before, so I didn't perform well!"

Even the good-tempered Sayre couldn't help but look a little dark at this moment.

"Hand shaking. Poor performance"

Chapter 183 People live to eat!

From then on, Orlan and Muti, who were four-star hunters, happily put away their hunter notes and went to the tavern area with Saier, who had a slightly depressed look on his face, and found a table to sit down.

Since the other two members of the Vanguard Hunting Group, Buck and Bradley, were taking Barry on a mission and were not in the city at the moment, there were only the three of them and two cats at the long table, making it seem a little deserted.

But this did not stop Muti from ordering a large table of delicious food.

She has been traveling outside these days, chewing the food she brought with her all day long, which makes her very greedy.

When I go out with Aolang, he will always try to make something to eat whenever conditions permit.

Although it can't be called a high-end delicacy, it is at least much better than portable food and randomly grilled meat. Muti feels that his tongue can no longer adapt to the edible bricks such as portable food.

While waiting for the food to be served, Orlan and Saier chatted about the Vanguard Hunting Group, including how they came together under Fu Fu's help, and then optimized Fu Fu herself, who claimed to be the core of the team.

From the conversation, Sayer keenly noticed that Orlan and Muti seemed to have a big misunderstanding of Fufu's true strength.

But thinking that the guy was very concerned about his reputation, he helped to deceive her and did not expose her.

Muti at the table seemed a little restless, his stool moving as if there were thorns on it, and he kept looking up at the two of them from time to time, but did not join in the conversation.

At first, Orlan thought that she was impatient for the delicious food that was about to be served, but with his familiarity with the latter, he soon realized that Muti wanted to say something, but because he and Sail were chatting animatedly, he couldn't find the opportunity to interrupt.

Finding an opportunity, Orlan turned to Muti and asked, "What do you want to say?"

There's no need to beat around the bush with this guy; being straightforward is best.

Sail, who also noticed Muti's restlessness, looked at her curiously.

Sure enough, Muti pointed to the giant bag filled with rock dragon materials she had carried all the way back and said mysteriously, "I dug up some good stuff from the rock dragon! But I don't know what to do with it!"

"A good thing collected from a rock dragon." Saier guessed, "Could it be dragon jade?"

Muti never liked to beat around the bush. She jumped up from her chair, ran to the huge package and started rummaging through it. Soon, she took out a cone-shaped object that was more than one meter long.

A big reason why the package looks so huge is that it is supported by this thing.

She held the thing up excitedly, "This is it!"

"Rock Dragon Tail, I knew it." Aolan couldn't help but cover his face.

Saier also said "ah", looking a little unsure of what to say.

Muti nodded heavily. From childhood to adulthood, she had only eaten rock dragon tail twice, which was the two times when Olang celebrated her birthday in Dongdoruma last year. She could never forget the taste.

She usually has no other expenses, has a lot of tasks to do and is not short of money, so she is willing to spend money on food.

However, she and Orlan's previous hunter levels did not allow her to order such high-quality ingredients, and she could only drool over the menu. So when she heard Orlan suggest that she hunt rock dragons to reach four stars, she agreed quite readily.

It is difficult to explain why this tail is missing.

Orlan asked Muti to put the rock dragon tail, which, including the outer shell, was heavier than most adult men, on the table. He took a closer look and poked the broken surface with his finger.

The meat on the cross section is very dry and slightly carbonized, obviously smoked to prevent rot. The whole tail is well preserved and has no peculiar smell.

It even feels a little cold when you put your hand on it, considering it's midsummer now.

"You wouldn't bring ice crystals for preservation when you go hunting, right?" Orlan stared at Muti.

Muti chuckled, even a little proud, "I did bring a few pieces with me and put them in the supply box at the camp. I stuffed them under my package when I came back.

Yuwan taught me! Otherwise, in a place as hot and humid as a swamp, the meat would have gone bad long ago."

"."

So while he took on the urgent mission and risked his life to save people, this guy also embarked on a journey to find delicious ingredients?

I feel a little angry for no reason, but I can't blame anyone for this.

Aolan rubbed his face. "So you mean to say you want to stew this thing?"

"Yeah!" Muti nodded expectantly. "When we ate at the Public Bar before, each serving only had one section. This dragon tail is enough for three or four servings. I want to eat the whole thing in one sitting!"

Looking at Muti with sparkling eyes, Orlan spread out his hands helplessly.

"I can't do it."

"Huh?" Muti tilted his head, looking like he didn't understand what you were saying.

"No. Do you have any misunderstanding about my cooking skills?" Orlan resisted the urge to poke her on the forehead.
