Hunting Cards! Star Dragon

"Money? No, no."

"You can't ride in a carriage if you don't have money."

"Then, what should we do?"

"How about trying to work at the village Hunter's Guild?" Xiaoyue began to promote her pitch. "It just so happens that a new poster girl recently left, so they're pretty short on staff."

Although her clothes are ragged, her outstanding appearance still reveals her cute temperament at a glance. She is definitely the best candidate for a temporary poster girl.

“Part-time job!?”

I am the dignified Dragon King, so why do I have to work in a hunter's guild in a small village?

"Well, if I get paid, I'll have money for a carriage ride. And the Hunter's Guild also provides meals."

"Guide, provide meals..."

Aresta's belly was sunken from hunger, and she protested in a very helpless manner.

After careful consideration, since the silver-haired hunter went to Granna, there are no coordinates of Granna in the other world.

It seems that working to save money for travel is the best solution at the moment.

"It's not impossible." Aresta agreed humiliatingly.

"That's great." Xiaoyue put her hands together and put them against her face, her expression full of anticipation: "A cute little sister like you will definitely become a very popular poster girl~"

"..."

Damn it! I, the mighty Dragon King, actually have to please humans!

For all these sacrifices, I will make him repay tenfold when I find him!

Oh, and if I stay in the village and work, I can find out the whereabouts of the Dominant Dragon Fork. (It has been melted down.)

Chapter 79: A Daughter Descends from the Sky? [4 in 1 Extra Update]

"Bad luck! Bad luck! Bad luck! Why, why am I the only one so unlucky!"

The girl driving the carriage at full speed was crying out against the injustice of fate with an obvious sob in her voice.

The three leading horses were running at their best even without the girl whipping them, simply because the ground behind them was shaking violently.

In the Gobi desert less than two hundred miles away from the central trading city-state of Granna, Shilia, who was doing business for the first time in his life, was being chased by a terrifying monster.

The mercenary group he hired to escort him was torn to pieces and wiped out by this monster three minutes ago.

Xilia could only feel the earth shaking getting closer, but could not observe the actual location of the monster.

Because the guy chasing him is a [Thousand-legged Blade Dragon], a super dangerous monster with a hunting level of LV64.

Even in a Gobi desert, where the ground is almost entirely composed of rocks, the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon can dive into the hard rocks and swim freely with its entire body like a dragon entering the sea.

The more you dive underground, the more you can't see the real body, but you can clearly feel the fear approaching, the more desperate you feel.

"Roar--!"

Accompanied by a deafening roar that exploded from the ground right below his feet, a thousand-legged blade dragon broke out of the ground and overturned the galloping carriage that Xilia was riding in.

It is called a dragon, but in fact, the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon is more like an extremely huge centipede.

The slender body, with sections one after another, has a total length of more than 100 meters. Both sides are covered with densely packed blades with sharp blades. Only the head at the front barely looks like a dragon.

"Ah, I am finally going to die."

The carriage was overturned, precious goods were scattered all over the ground, and Xilia, who was about to fall into the dragon's mouth in mid-air, looked back on his life.

There is really not a single thing that can be called lucky.

Although he was born in Granna, the most prosperous central city-state in human society, he was a child of the lower class.

Her parents divorced when she was young, and Shelia has never seen her mother since she can remember.

Her father was addicted to alcohol and gambling, and was heavily in debt. He disappeared when Hillary was ten years old.

While avoiding debt collectors, he saved money by doing the dirtiest and most tiring odd jobs.

Finally, at the age of 18, after secretly saving enough capital for the first time, Hillary registered to join the Granna Merchants Association.

Shilia thought that life would gradually get better, but during his first business trip, he encountered a high-risk monster that no businessman wanted to encounter.

"With such a miserable life, there's nothing to be nostalgic about."

Xilia could already feel the foul odor from the dragon's mouth below. If she was swallowed like this, she would probably die in agony.

I won't let myself relax until I die.

At the moment when Xilia closed her eyes and decided to die, she seemed to be hugged by someone while falling in mid-air.

Xilia opened her eyes in confusion.

Then she saw it, a scene that seemed to exist only in her childhood fantasies.

A handsome young man with fair skin, silver hair and blue eyes, wearing a red scarf that covered half of his face, saved himself from the dragon's mouth.

"To let such a beautiful lady perish in the mouth of a desert dragon is truly a waste of nature."

I was wrong. It wasn't a boy. Judging from his voice and tone, he sounded more like a girl.

After escaping the life-threatening crisis, Xilia took a closer look and found that the half face covered by the scarf was even more adorable and could not help but admire it.

It turned out that he was rescued by a handsome girl.

It doesn’t seem bad.

No, now is not the time to secretly rejoice.

Although thanks to the silver-haired girl, he barely escaped from the dragon's mouth.

But the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon will never give up attacking until it completely kills its locked prey.

Rather, he even put his savior in danger.

Perhaps she saw the panic in Xilia's eyes, and she gently put her on the ground. The silver-haired girl grasped the black hilt behind her with her slender fingers like scallions.

"Don't worry, leave the rest to me."

Only then did Shilia realize that the silver-haired girl who saved her was carrying a strange weapon on her back, a weapon she had never seen before. She also had a weapon on her waist.

Is it a hunter?

Is she planning to fight the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon alone?

This kind of thing is absolutely impossible!

The entire mercenary group he hired was wiped out by the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon in an instant.

What's more, the silver-haired girl was using a weapon similar to a long sword.

Slashing weapons are naturally countered by the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon.

"No, you'd better run away!" Xilia couldn't help but remind him loudly: "Even if you cut the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon in half, it will split and regenerate!"

The giant body of the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon Lie is 80% similar to the arthropod centipede. Its biggest feature is that after being cut off, its body will split and regenerate piece by piece, and its power after the split will hardly weaken.

Originally you only need to deal with one Thousand-legged Blade Dragon, but if you fight it with a knife, in the end you may need to face dozens of Thousand-legged Blade Dragons at the same time.

"Thanks for the reminder." The silver-haired girl turned her back to Xilia and made an OK gesture: "But I don't need to run away."

“Roar——!” The ugly dragon head at the front of the slender body roared and rushed towards the silver-haired girl.

Hoshimi: "Can you do this, Erica?"

During the ten minutes of soul fusion time every day, the reason why Xilia identified Xingjian as a girl was obviously because Erica was temporarily filling in.

"Do you want to activate the armament card?"

Even though all the skills of the [Ice Claw Dark Dragon] weapon are curse type, as a level 55 weapon, even without using any skills, the basic attributes improved, the attack power increased (large), and the defense power increased (medium), are already very impressive.

Erica: "We won't need any weapons against monsters of this level. Let's try out our new swords!"

The scabbard latch unlocked, and Erica pulled the extra-long scabbard into the scabbard.

The huge black knife, which still exuded ghostly murderous intent even under the sunlight, stunned Shiriya.

Even though he lived in Granna, a central city with a large population and a large number of hunters, it was the first time that Xilia had seen this type of weapon.

However, no matter how strange the weapon's appearance, it is still a knife.

Slashing weapons cannot defeat the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon.

"I won't give you a chance to split apart. Just one cut is enough!"

Gripping the hilt of the knife tightly with both hands, Erica rushed forward while swinging the knife in a long sword shape, and the knife was as sharp as a spear.

If it was an ordinary katana, the blade would be too short and even if it hit the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon, it would not be able to cut it in half.

This is a fighting style that only a large sword can achieve!

As for how to deal with it, arthropod monsters have the characteristic of splitting and regenerating after their bodies are cut off.

Erica's knife stunned Shiriya, who was in despair just a second ago.

(.Д.) She actually chopped it vertically!

It is not about chopping the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon, which is over a hundred meters long, into pieces.

Instead, she struck directly at the dragon's head, the jet-black blade tracing its path down the center of the slender centipede's body. Erica charged forward with her blade, slashing a hundred meters in length.

"Oh la, oh la! Can you still split like this, you disgusting big bug!"

While sprinting, Erica did not forget to shout excitedly.

He chopped the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon from its head all the way to its tail without any interruption or deviation in between. The precision of the knife was so great that even Xing Jian couldn't help but admire it.

In the sky of the Gobi Desert, the slender insect body over a hundred meters long was perfectly split in two by Erica from the middle, without any error.

“——『Black Obsidian Sword Style: Thousand Legs Instant Slash』!!”

The last part is of course Erica’s favorite, naming.

[Thousand-legged Blade Dragon] Successfully defeated

Xilia knelt on the ground, staring at the scene in amazement.

Although there is a saying that a centipede is still alive even after death, the two halves of the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon, which was cut vertically in the middle, only struggled and twisted a few times symbolically before it was no longer able to breathe.

"I'm saved."

Shilia, who thought she was unlucky all her life and would definitely die here today, never expected that there would be a sudden turn of events in her desperate situation.

Well, although I was saved, there was no dramatic turn of events.

The rented carriage was completely destroyed by the Thousand-legged Blade Dragon, and the three horses also died gloriously.

In addition, the goods that he had brought back with all his capital, the specialties from the Tianque Kingdom, and the ceramic artworks that he had intended to sell as commodities in Granna were all smashed to pieces.

bankrupted.

He and the rest of his life went bankrupt.

Not even Granner could go back.

Chocobo March~?

"That's really amazing, sir." The driver who was driving the Chocobo wiped the sweat from his forehead.

In the Gobi Desert, the uncle encountered a very dangerous Crawlers, and he originally planned to start his Chocobo at full speed to escape.
