Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

  Chapter 29 I’ll finish it when I come back

   The conversation went on for a long time.

  Middle-aged men are really easy to be sad. This point has been confirmed by Gordon in Ernest.

  The old guy actually wiped his tears after talking about it, and blamed himself for saying that he failed to provide Gordon with a good enough growth environment?

  After listening in a daze for a long time, Gordon finally understood what the instructor and the village chief meant.

  —Kokete Village is too remote and lacks the "soil" necessary for growth. If he wants to continue to grow stronger, he should go out and have a look.

   Then, let’s go for a walk?

  Although I feel a bit reluctant to part with everyone in Kokot Village, I think of the opportunity to see a wider world and challenge those mysterious monsters that I have never heard of.

  The sadness and reluctance in my heart have long since disappeared!

  Of course, he did not forget to ask the opinion of the pork chop, and it turned out that the idea of ​​the pork chop was simpler.

  For it, coming to Cocot Village is only a part of leaving the country to practice. As long as it can continue to follow Gordon, what difference does it make if it is in Cocote Village or somewhere else?

  Since this is the case, there is nothing to hesitate. Super mobility is Gordon's shortcoming, but it is also an advantage.

  Once he makes up his mind, he will move towards the goal with the highest efficiency.

   It took nearly a week for Gordon to sell and process all kinds of furs and medicinal materials collected in the past two or three years. Except for some necessary materials related to hunting, the rest were replaced with portable precious metals and cash.

  He feels richer than ever before!

   Fortunately, there are instructors to wind him up.

   Ernest is like a talkative old lady, repeatedly reminding Gordon that unlike a remote village in a poor country, many things can be self-sufficient, and in the city, you have to spend money everywhere.

  Don't look at the amount of money you have now, if you don't pay attention when the time comes, the money won't be able to bear the expenses at all.

  Hunters are actually high-income groups. It would be too miserable to be reduced to hunting for tomorrow's meal and accommodation expenses.

  About where to go at the first stop after leaving Kokot Village.

  Gordon decided to ask the instructor and the village head for their opinions, but what he didn't expect was that the instructor and the village head actually had a disagreement on this issue.

  The destination recommended by the instructor is East Doruma City, the largest and most prosperous metropolis of human beings standing in the center of the continent.

  Hunter Guild Headquarters, Wang Li Paleontological Scholars Team Headquarters, Gulong Observation Bureau, and the world's largest hunter gathering place are all set up there.

  Dong Doruma not only gathers the best hunters in the world, but also the blacksmith workshop, trading market, investigation team, transportation facilities and other related resources are the best in the world.

  In East Doruma, you can even take an airship to reach any hunting ground on the mainland in just a few days. This is a convenience that Gordon, who lives in Kokot Village, cannot imagine.

  However, the village head insisted on objecting.

  He said that East Doruma City is indeed very good, but she is too good, too perfect, if Gordon, who has little knowledge, chooses it as the initial stop of the trip.

   Then, there is also a high possibility of becoming the end of the trip.

  Excessive prosperity is a slow poison that wears down the will.

   Hearing these words, Gordon realized clearly for the first time.

  —Is this old man pretending to be dementia? ? !

   The village chief, who didn't know what impolite thoughts Gordon had in mind at this time, continued to talk about his suggestion.

  He recommended two locations, one is Jiangbo Village in the coastal area in the southeast of the mainland.

   This is a newly established human settlement that has just been established in recent years. Although the scale is not yet at the level of a town, it has an extremely rapid development momentum.

  He also knows the village head of Jiangbo Village, a young and very thoughtful descendant of the dragon race. He is very sure that under the leadership of that young village head, within a few decades, another big city will rise in the southeast of the mainland.

  If Gordon goes there, whether it is a short-term stay or a long-term settlement, it is a very good choice.

  Another recommendation is a bit more conservative.

  —Seaside city, Minergard City.

   This is the nearest human city to Kokot Village. Although it is not as good as East Doruma, it is also one of the top ten bustling cities in the mainland.

  The biggest benefit of choosing here is "familiarity".

  Whether it is daily life such as diet, dialect, climate conditions and folk customs, or hunting related aspects such as hunting ground environment and ecological distribution of monsters, they all have something in common with Kokot Village.

  At the same time, Minergard City has abundant resources unmatched by Cocot Village, which is enough for Gordon to obtain the best growth environment.

   It can be said that it is the most suitable "pedal" for Gordon, a fledgling who has just learned to fly, after leaving the nest.

  Three options were placed in front of Gordon for him to choose.

  Gordon held the pork chop and picked left and right, and was the first to rule out the option of Jiangbo village.

  Kokete Village is located in the northwest corner of the mainland, while Jiangbo Village is located in the southeast of the mainland. The climate and environment of the two places are very different in terms of natural ecology.

  Gordon really has no interest in crossing the entire continent as soon as he goes out, and runs to another wilderness like the sky to start construction. Everyone admires pioneers, but not everyone can be a pioneer.

   After hesitating for a long time between the two options of East Doruma City and Minagard City, Gordon and Pig Chop finally chose the latter.

  The reason is also very simple, just like no restaurant will put the main course on the table at the very beginning.

  Instead of indulging in the best from the beginning, it is better to keep an expectation in the bottom of my heart, and wait until the future to reveal it step by step.

   Soon, the day of travel came.

  At the entrance of Koket Village, almost all the people in the village gathered here.

   Gordon, who was always carefree, was at a loss at this moment. He really didn't expect so many people to see him off.

   "Remember to come back and have a look when you have time~" The neighbor's aunt kept wiping away tears.

  The owner of the blacksmith shop, who was as strong as a bear, thumped Gordon's chest, and said in a heroic voice, "A man should wander around, ha, when you become a hunter, I will put up a sign at the door of the shop!

  ‘The first weapon of the legendary hunter Gordon was built here! ',Ha ha ha ha! "

  The peddler of the tool stall, the proprietress of the tavern, and the village children who want to become hunters all day long.

  Everyone in the village came up to say goodbye to Gordon one by one.

  Some people even gave gifts for practice, maybe a bag of dry food, or maybe an amulet made of a leaf from their hometown, none of which were valuable, but Gordon carefully put them away one by one.

  The pork chops on the side even received more, and they were basically food.

  Dried fish, ham, cheese, sausages, air-dried bread, wood stalks, everything.

  The little guy was also in tears. When he first came to Cocot Village a year ago, everything here made him feel panicked.

   Now that I am leaving, I suddenly feel reluctant.

   "Okay, let's go, don't worry about mother-in-law, it's just a long journey, and we will meet again one day." Ernest folded his arms and looked proud.

   But everyone can see that this man who always looks like a tough guy has redder eyes than anyone else.

Gordon also sniffled. He stepped back and waved his hands vigorously to everyone, with a big grin on the corner of his grinning mouth, "Soon, when I can defeat the dragon, I will come back and take it Come on, it won't be long!"

ps: In the original setting, Kokot Village may be more "famous", but if the villages that appear in each game are really set as important locations (like the center of the world), the plot will be very Difficult to handle, so there will be a certain degree of adaptation.
