Monster Hunter Monster Girl Story

0035 Ao Long

"There is another important piece of information I need to tell you."

After speaking, Grave took out a map scroll from his backpack.

Once unfolded, apart from some recent intelligence markers, the red circles around the forest core area are particularly eye-catching.

"The Hero Squad's hunt is not going well. Five-star Greatsword hunter Sifus has been sent to the village for emergency treatment due to serious injuries. Azure Rathalos and Pink Rathian may move at any time. Even if the hunters are on the outskirts, it may not be safe. Therefore, the area has now been designated as an unsafe zone."

"No wonder the explosions were so intense during the day, and the fire dragon retreated..."

If Li Ai hadn't had the experience of chasing after the little fool, she might not have had such a deep understanding of this kind of danger.

Now it is fully understood that once monsters are driven to a dead end, the activity range monitored by hunter intelligence will become invalid, and they will no longer hold their territory and nests.

Subspecies like Azure Rathalos and Pink Rathian can unleash combat power when near death that is far beyond the capabilities of ordinary hunters.

Therefore, even if the distance is far, there is still a possibility of encountering danger.

"Won't the hero squad request backup?"

"Yes, Lande, who came to provide support, should be in place by now."

"Instructor Langde?"

"This is her... What's wrong, Li Ai?"

"My hunter instructor is Londo, which is a bit of a surprise."

Li Ai realized that Instructor Langde was probably not revealing the truth because he didn't want her to worry too much.

"Speaking of which, Londo was a well-known hunter in the village back in the day, known for his perseverance... It's almost time, I have to head to the next certification point... What's up with you?"

Grave was a little bewildered when Li Ai kept trying to get all sorts of strange and unusual foods out of him.

"This is my dietary enhancement set. If Investigator Grave has the opportunity to meet Instructor Lund, please be sure to give it to him. He knows how to use it."

"A special enhancement buff... I understand."

Grave nodded and solemnly accepted it with both hands.

Due to differences in culture and heritage, hunters in different regions have many different ways of strengthening themselves.

For example, soaking in hot springs, inhaling pollen, and eating glutinous rice balls.

Although Grave found these tightly sealed items strange, he acknowledged their effectiveness.

If Li Ai knew that Langde was going to support the hunting commission of [Tiancang, Diying], she would definitely have given it to him for free.

Grave disappeared into the jungle. Li Ai glanced back at the little fool with his eyes slightly open, knowing that he didn't have much time left and had to act immediately under the cover of night.

After sending the location message to Qingtian, the three monster girls arrived shortly afterward, along with a four-wheeled flatbed cart, carrying the supplies Li Ai needed.

"Qingcao Qingtian, go back and take the truck away from here. Find a suitable place to hide with the rescue team."

"What about me?"

Sheep Kuku jumped out.

She felt that she hadn't been mentioned, so she must have a special mission.

"Your task is rather dangerous. You'll be taking turns with me on guard duty, and if necessary, you'll have to suppress the little idiot or fight off other fire dragons. Of course, these are the worst-case scenarios."

"Then I'll stay too."

Qingtian stepped forward.

"No, are you really comfortable leaving Qingtian and the rescue team on standby in the wilderness? Besides, you have the team's only two cell phones. If you leave too, we'll completely lose contact with the truck. What if something happens over there, or we need emergency medical assistance here..."

"Okay, okay! Stop talking! I'll go back with Qingcao."

Sunny covered her ears and ran away.

"You all need to be careful."

After Qingcao finished speaking, she ran over as well.

After gathering some branches, Li Ai built a campfire and began to boil water.

Yang Kuku then picked up a hardwood branch, skewered the shield beetle meat, and roasted it.

"Why does it smell burnt?"

Li Ai smelled something was wrong and immediately looked toward the campfire.

"what!"

Yang Kuku exclaimed in surprise, quickly pulled back the branch, and looked at the black, smoky worm meat, his eyes dimming.

"It's burnt again..."

"Don't be discouraged, there are techniques to this too."

"What technique?"

"Uh... singing along to the beat while grilling makes it easier to get the meat cooked through."

Li Ai also found it unbelievable, but this was not only acknowledged by many hunters, but also taught by the instructors of the hunter knowledge course.

Li Ai then took out her phone and played the background music that teachers use when grilling meat.

Li Ai clapped her hands, and Yang Kuku nodded in rhythm before placing the branch on the fire.

Hey~

After a crisp sound, Yang Kuku quickly pulled out the branch and held it up. When she saw the golden-yellow worm meat, her eyes lit up.

After breaking off a branch and smilingly giving half a skewer to Li Ai, Yang Kuku hummed the rhythm from before as he ate.

My phone vibrated twice.

Li Ai noticed that Yang Kuku's favorability rating had already increased to 8 hearts.

However, after observing him for a while, Li Ai didn't see any sign of affection for him.

Yang Kuku's attitude is more like that of a very close friend who is willing to share everything.

"This relationship is not bad, but how do I trigger the confession enhancement?"

While Li Ai was pondering, the pot had already boiled.

I opened the Kangshifu braised beef instant noodles, tore open the various seasoning packets and poured them in. I made one bucket to fill my stomach. Then Li Ai made another bucket. After that, she opened the luncheon meat, sliced ​​it, and added it in.

Then, carrying the bucket of noodles, he came to the little fool.

呲味~

The creature on the other side shifted and struggled, its neck arched, its head swaying back with its head touching the ground, displaying a posture of disgust and avoidance.

Li Ai wasn't in a hurry. She placed the instant noodles in front of the other person and then sat cross-legged on the ground.

Then he lifted her up with his broad arms and stared intently at the little fool.

The aroma emanating from Kang Shuaifu's braised beef was quickly drawn into the little fool's nostrils.

Saliva quickly dribbled from between her teeth, but as soon as she turned her head slightly, she saw those bright, piercing eyes staring intently at her.

The extreme discomfort caused the little fool to tuck his head further inside his body.

Yang Kuku watched from behind for a moment, still not understanding what was going on, and asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Stewed dragon".

"She doesn't seem very willing to see you... Will this really work?"

"Of course, the first step after establishing contact is to make the other person used to your presence."

"Then I'll help too."

Yang Kuku followed Li Ai's example and sat down next to her.

Clawwing crossed its arms and stared at the little fool, but before it could even last five minutes, it started yawning sleepily.

Looking up and seeing the moon peeking through the leaves, Yang Kuku thought to himself, "The lone wolf must be living a very comfortable life in the dense forest right now."

"Not necessarily. Given her personality, she'll definitely start a territorial battle in the dense forest first. If she encounters a strong opponent, she'll probably have a tough time for a while."

"Oh yeah... how come you know her better than I do?"

Yang Kuku was surprised.

"Hehe, I know most of the monster girls very well... I'm going to the bathroom, remember to keep an eye on them."

"Okay."

Yang Kuku gave her assurances, but after sitting for a short while, she felt an overwhelming sense of restlessness.

"No way, this is so boring!"

Looking back at the jungle and seeing that Li Ai showed no sign of returning, he lay down on the ground and dug in the soil, looking for earthworms.

As the dark red earthworms were pulled out one by one, Yang Kuku's inner turmoil quickly subsided.

Call ~

A rapid inhalation sound came, and when Yang Kuku looked up again, Kang Shuaifu's red noodle bucket had already tipped over and gone empty.

The silly little thing, with its head bent back to its chest, saw that Yang Kuku was staring straight at it, so it also raised its head slightly, looking confusedly into the depths of the forest, and began to mislead.

"Didn't you eat it...?"

Yang Kuku got up in confusion and looked in that direction, but there was nothing there except for the dark jungle.

Hey~

As if in agreement, the little fool also let out a low growl.

"What do we do? The dragon-making tools have been stolen!"

Just as Yang Kuku was getting worried, footsteps came from behind him.

"Li Ai, was there a ghost just now...? Why did you make another bucket?"

"Once I leave, you'll definitely be bored and neglect the little idiot. Without her attention, she's bound to take the opportunity to sneak a bite. In order to continue brewing the dragon, of course I have to brew another bucket."

After Li Ai finished speaking, she checked her phone and confirmed that three minutes had passed. Then she picked up the fork that was stuck on the bucket lid.

After placing the noodle buckets back in their original positions, the empty buckets were collected, and then the person sat back down in their original position.

"You really are an expert on monster girls. Now, can you predict Lone Wolf's future?"

"You already know that, don't you? I don't need to tell you."

"Uh...is there really no chance of things turning around?"

Yang Kuku asked unwillingly.

"The ones who are determined to hunt her are the hero hunters. Sene isn't a monster girl, so there's nothing I can do. I can only hope that the two of them never meet again."

Time passed slowly, and the branches of the woodland swayed in the night wind.

Actually, staying up all night wasn't a big deal when they were in Sheep Village, but Li Ai had already spent the whole day running around in the wild.

The most important thing is to maintain this form tomorrow.

As the outermost area of ​​the most dangerous region in Senqiu, he cannot afford to relax for even a moment.

In the early hours of the morning, Li Ai started smoking, chewing gum, and drinking energy drinks...

In order to keep the dragon alive, he also began to grit his teeth and endure it.

The instant noodles were already cold, and the portion was pitifully small for the female Rathalos.

But the little fool who has tasted it can never forget the feeling of the rich and fragrant broth of the braised beef noodles sliding between his lips and teeth.

She hoped that the despicable human would leave again, but the problem was that Li Ai seemed to be determined this time, keeping her eyes fixed on her at all times.

The silly boy didn't want to give in and wanted to persist.

However, the problem is that under the combined effects of pain, hunger, fatigue, and drowsiness, her consciousness has become somewhat scattered.

In the end, she could only endure the humiliation, stretch out her neck, and take another slurp.

The expected triumphant performance did not materialize from that human.

Li Ai took the empty bucket and left, and soon brewed another bucket.

This time, not only was more luncheon meat added, but the pieces were also placed closer together.

Then he sat cross-legged on the ground and continued to stare.

Slurp~

The noodle bucket was empty again, and the little fool was finally willing to acknowledge Li Ai's existence.

buzz~

The phone vibrated twice. Li Ai saw the little fool in the initial contact period, and her favorability rating increased from -4 hearts to -3 hearts.

After letting out a sigh of relief, I got up and made another bowl of soup.

This time, after moving closer, Li Ai nudged Yang Kuku, who was fast asleep on the ground.

"Uh...is it dawn yet?"

"It's still a while before dawn, now it's your turn to go on stage and perform."

Upon hearing that it was his turn to take the stage, Yang Kuku immediately perked up.

Are you familiar with all of Kabu's lyrics?

Li Ai asked in a low voice.

"Perfectly cooked! If it were a little smaller, just a small amount of the same luncheon meat would be enough to fill you up!"

As Yang Kuku spoke, it spread its claws and wings, then tilted its head back and laughed happily.

"Uh... is it a problem with the lines?"

Seeing Li Ai's strange expression, Yang Kuku asked her a question out of curiosity.

"It's not that the words are wrong, it's just that you seem so engaged, like you're really happy."

"Because I'm genuinely happy."

"Very good, keep it up."

After Li Ai finished speaking, she also took out the chubby lizard.

"Lizard, we've met a real expert this time. We can't let each other down when we team up."

The lizard stuck out its forked tongue, as if giving a guarantee.

A demonstration of the benefits of anthropomorphizing monsters was then staged in front of the little fool.

Sheep Kuku already knew Lone Wolf, who had already been transformed into a monster girl, so she was more accepting of him.

Meanwhile, the little fool was completely dumbfounded by the sheep Kuku, who seemed to have endless energy, sometimes transforming into a monster girl and sometimes into a giant bird.

After their performance, the two sat on the ground to rest for a long time, and the little fool still hadn't recovered.

It wasn't until another bowl of braised beef noodles was placed in front of me that I subconsciously started to eat.

However, after taking a sip, he realized that Li Ai hadn't left this time; she was standing right in front of him.

The silly boy couldn't understand why he had gotten used to the other person's approach.

However, when the hand reached towards her head, she immediately shook her head and shrank back to her chest.

Li Ai didn't insist any further, and within one night, she raised the favorability rating to negative two hearts, which was already beyond the target.

As the morning light shone into the forest, Li Ai, with dark circles under her eyes, began digging a pit to bury excrement, empty buckets, and anything else that emitted a foul odor.

The biggest problem right now is that we can't move the little idiot around; once captured, we can only deal with it on the spot.

Therefore, we must not leave any trace that other monsters can use to track us here.

After burying the sheep, Li Ai woke up Yang Kuku, seeing that the little fool had fallen asleep.

I set an alarm for two hours, intending to take advantage of the early morning hours to get some sleep.

Unfortunately, just as the sun rose over the mountains, they were awakened by the roar of a ferocious dragon and the sound of explosions in the distance from the forest.

After getting up, Li Ai lit a cigarette: "No wonder a normal hunter team always has four people..."

He is currently not only lacking rest, but also has no time to observe and understand the intelligence of the surrounding area. If food and buffs could not be purchased from the game store, then supplies and weight management would also be a problem.

"Those who can travel alone in dangerous wilderness are definitely not simple people."

Li Ai now realized the true value of Master Yuanye and the Grand Master's ability to explore the New World alone.

There's nothing to do right now, and I can't sleep or move around.

After eating the nutritious breakfast she had prepared, Li Ai opened her phone and started playing the unlimited-points version of the Pain Elimination game to relax and de-stress.
