Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

"Bang—"

The back of his head hit some kind of hard object, maybe a stone or a tree root protruding from the ground, and Anshir woke up from a coma.

He was in a trance.

The last second of memory still stays in Fuyuelong crashing into the dense forest like a giant meteorite. He was very lucky not to be hit directly, but he was also blown away by the impact.

It fell to the ground and then lost consciousness until now.

Blinking his eyelids hard twice, his thinking gradually became clearer.

He felt the state of his body, his whole body was in severe pain, his bones were not broken but might be cracked, and his internal organs were also injured by concussion.

But at least he survived, right?

So, what is the situation now?

The canopy above the head moved slowly, no, it was me who moved, and I was lying on a huge leaf, being dragged forward by something.

Anshir tried to look up.

Pupil earthquake!

What the hell is that? !

Was it a human being who dragged him forward? Upright bipedal creature?

It is like a combination of a person and a chrysalis. The large pieces of worm silk and the hardened translucent huge chrysalis form the main part of its body.

The head and torso are connected as a whole, and it is a huge, orange-red, slimy spindle-shaped chrysalis. The limbs protrude from the chrysalis, which are also wrapped with sticky silk and chitin carapace.

The chrysalis seems to be filled with a semi-fluid liquid. Every time this "chrysalis" takes a step, there will be a strange sound of "guji guji" liquid squeezed in the body.

Anshir stared, and the string called reason in his mind almost snapped.

He has always been an atheist, and he doesn't believe in anything from heaven and hell, but at this moment, he can't help but feel a little shaken.

Where else could a Creator create such a deformed creature other than Hades? !

As if sensing Anshir's movement or gaze, the pupa stopped and turned to face him.

"Guji. Wake up Gulu you?"

The voice that came from inside the chrysalis was actually a young female voice, but the voice was dull and vague, as if talking with her head stuffed into glue, and every few words she said would bring out a series of bubbling sounds.

Anshir stared blankly at the other party.

The pupa man continued: "I'm hurt, Gululu, Gululu, we're here right now, Gululu."

lingua franca? No, it is different from the human language commonly used in the Old Continent. There seems to be a difference in pitch and grammar, but it is barely understandable.

"Lululu hungry stomach rumbling?"

Being "stared" by the two rows of things on the other party's "face" who didn't know whether they were eyes or air holes, Anshir swallowed subconsciously.

This seemed to have misunderstood the other party. The Pupa man took out a fat white worm that was bigger than a fist, and handed it to Anshir.

The corner of Anshir's mouth twitched fiercely.

He recognized this thing—the Stamina Thunderworm.

It is not distributed in the old continent, but it is said that it is everywhere in the new continent. I did not expect it to be found in Hong Leong.

Sometimes businessmen collect them as "New World special food" or "New World's magical pets" and send them to East Doruma, and there are always curious people who are willing to pay for it.

Gordon bought it and tried it. According to the guy, the taste was sticky and his stomach was unexpectedly full.

But he doesn't want to try it at all, he has a "weakness" that almost no one knows - he hates this kind of fleshy bug the most, disgusting!

Seeing that Anshir stared blankly at the portable lunch in his hand, but didn't intend to reach out, the pupa thought that the former was being polite, so he directly put the stamina thunderworm on Anshir's stomach, and continued to drag him forward .

Looking at the fat worm slowly crawling from his stomach to his chest, Anshir felt that his hair was about to stand on end.

He wanted to throw this thing away immediately, but he had to bite the bullet and endure it, considering that it might irritate the chrysalis.

The current situation is unknown, my physical condition is extremely poor, and the weapon [Shigure] is also lost. It is obviously not a wise choice to offend this strange-looking, but supposedly harmless pupa.

Since the other party is able to communicate and does not appear to be malicious, proper communication is necessary.

"Ahem, lady? Let me get down and walk by myself." Anshir called to stop the pupa who was struggling to drag the leaves under him, "My injury should not be that serious."

"Guji, is your injury okay?"

"It should be fine."

Anshir sat up slowly, quietly put the Endurance Thunderworm aside, and then slowly stood up.

The bones in both legs are fine, but there may be fractures in the ribs. The left shoulder is seriously injured, and the entire shoulder is swollen. Moving the arms is painful, and the joints may be misaligned.

Putting his right hand on his left shoulder and pressing it for a while, after roughly confirming the situation, Anshir staggered to a big tree, found a suitable angle, and slammed it hard.

After a crisp sound of "click", the joint resets.

"Gugululu." The pupa applauded, as if congratulating him?

Gritting his teeth and enduring the severe pain of joint reset, Anshir took off his helmet, took out a secret medicine and swallowed it, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and nodded to the pupa.

"Sorry for the wait."

"What's up! Guji"

When he just took out the secret medicine, An Xier briefly checked that his pocket hadn't been touched. After thinking about it, he took out another food item and handed it to the other party.

Perhaps exchanging food is a means of showing friendship?

The chrysalis was stunned for a moment, took a few glances at the food it was carrying, and put it away instead of eating it right away.

The effect of the secret medicine is as reliable as ever. In just a short while, the pain in my whole body has been relieved a lot. At least there is no problem with low-intensity walking.

But in order to truly recover, it is estimated that he will have to cultivate for a while.

"It's okay to walk?"

"Where are we going now?" Anshir asked at the same time following in the footsteps of the pupa man.

The pupa man replied in a relaxed tone, "Go to the woodland."

"My companion may be looking for me, can you take me back to the ruins?" Anshir asked tentatively.

"Gululu, it's not allowed, the mountain god is awake, the tower is too dangerous Gululu, you can't get close to it, Puji"

Anshir hesitated, he wanted to leave directly, but he couldn't confirm his current location at all, he only knew that he should still be in the sea of ​​trees in Batu Batum.

Without knowing the direction, without a map, without a weapon, and with wounds on your body, trying to find your way in this vast sea of ​​trees of millions of square kilometers is tantamount to dreaming.

Instead of wandering around like a headless chicken, it is better to follow this suspected aboriginal guy to the so-called "woodland".

From being dragged all the way to now following one behind the other, Anshir silently observed the pupa who was a few steps ahead of him.

The other party was not tall, and could even be said to be quite short. Even counting the forked horn at the top of the giant chrysalis, it was only about 160 centimeters.

After a period of observation, he can basically confirm that the other party is a human being, and he will not be too old.

Being able to communicate with each other and having the voice of a young girl is one aspect.

The more crucial evidence is that when they passed by an area in the forest where the sun shines, the columnar sunlight illuminates the giant pupae. Through the translucent pupae shell and effusion, Anshir vaguely saw the A slender human form inside a giant chrysalis.

This reminded him of what Hilda said about the special biological technology possessed by the aborigines of the Sea of ​​Trees.

If those chrysalis shells, worm silk, and even the egg white-like mucus inside the giant chrysalis are collectively understood as some kind of special biological armor, then everything will be easy to explain.
