One man and one dog, wandering in the world of Monster Hunter

Chapter 236 Accelerating Hammer



Chapter 236 Accelerating Hammer

"Suck it, suck it."

Link held the porcelain bowl in his hand and drank the delicious fish soup in big gulps. In addition to the delicious fish, the soup also had the unique milky aroma of Yunyanglu.

The mellow white hot soup has a few slices of green onions floating on the surface, and the fish and venison inside are constantly sinking and floating, exuding an enticing aroma.

Every mouthful of soup is so stimulating that one will salivate and linger on.

He picked up a piece of well-cooked venison and put it into his mouth.

The gravy blooms in your mouth, and the tender venison blends with the deliciousness of the soup base, creating a feast for your taste buds.

Link closed his eyes and savored the satisfaction that this delicious meal brought.

"Great! Grandma Haruna, another bowl please!"

He handed the empty bowl to Grandma Haruka, who was in charge of serving food next to the big pot. The old lady smiled and scooped a full spoonful of broth into Link's bowl.

"Eat more, there's not enough."

Haruna glanced at Link and the other kids lining up with him, and her eyebrows curved with a smile.

The village hasn’t been this lively for a long time. The last time we held a banquet was last time.

Link carried the soup and grabbed several skewers of grilled fish from the charcoal fire.

The meat of this green water dragon is firm, elastic and not easy to fall apart, making it an excellent material for barbecue.

The surface of the roasted golden fish is covered with chili powder, pepper, and white sesame seeds, exuding a charming aroma.

The red color of the pepper and the golden color of the fish complement each other perfectly, making people salivate at first sight.

Link opened his mouth wide, pulled hard from the root of a skewer of grilled meat to the bottom, and then put the whole skewer of fish into his mouth.

"Woo woo woo." (So delicious.)

The fish meat filling the cheeks becomes more fragrant the more you chew it.

A slight spicy sensation hits without being overly pungent, intertwined with pepper and white sesame seeds to create a unique and layered flavor.

Link ate as he walked, his eyes sweeping across the road. Yanhuo Village was unusually lively today, with a constant stream of people coming and going. In addition to the local villagers, there were also the sailor cats on Beile's ship, and even merchants and travelers who happened to pass by.

Even the village guards stationed at Feiye Fortress took turns to come and eat for free.

[Ding, eat the meat of the green water dragon, Constitution +7, Strength +8, Water Resistance +3]

After eating a few skewers of grilled fish, the bowl in his hand was empty again. Link touched his stomach which was eight-tenths full, listened to the system voice in his ears, and did not stay outside for long, and went straight back to his home.

When Link got home, there was no one in the house. The two cats, Honey and Chuchu, were playing outside and had not come back yet.

Throwing himself onto the tatami bed, Link rested his head on his hands and began to think about his future itinerary.

Apart from the Mud Dragon subjugation mission that has already been accepted, there are not many four-star monsters near the Flame Cloud.

Rock Dragon, Thunder Dragon, Poison Bird, Scarlet Armormon, and Scarlet Tengumon.

Among them, the Rock Dragon and the Red Armored Beast live in the sand plain, a little far from the Flame Village.

After traveling for several months, Link finally understood why hunters travel all over the world.

There are only a few monsters in each area that are suitable for the hunter level. If you don't travel around, you can only hunt the same monster, and the improvement in your strength is very limited.

Therefore, in order to improve strength faster and better, hunters should move to another place after each shot, which is the way of life.

"Go to sleep, go to sleep. Tomorrow I will learn how to use the sledgehammer, and the day after tomorrow I will go hunting the mud dragon."

Link turned over in bed and closed his eyes.

-

Day three.

The weather was not good today, and a drizzle was falling from the sky. After Link had the breakfast carefully prepared by Honey, he dressed neatly and went out with Chuchu.

Instead of rushing to the abandoned shrine, Link first went to the blacksmith shop to pick up his new weapon.

"Hey, Link, you're here pretty early."

Dao Fu had been sitting in the shop since early morning. The sound of blacksmithing at the back of the shop continued, creating a bustling scene.

"Well, Uncle Daofu, my weapon should be ready now."

The day before yesterday, Link brought the materials of the heavy beetle to Daofu and asked him to make him a powerful hammer. Daofu agreed immediately and asked him to come and pick it up in two days.

Not only that, Daofu also asked him for a lot of materials of the beetle and two big teeth of the ghost frog, saying that he wanted to give him a surprise.

"Haha, you came at the right time. I was just about to look for you. Come, take a look at this speed-boosting hammer I carefully crafted and see if it fits your hand."

Daofu stood up and walked to the wooden table in the middle of the blacksmith shop. He reached out and grabbed the linen covering the table. With a strong pull, the weapon on the table came into Link's sight.

"..."

Abstract, too abstract.

Looking at the emerald green hammer on the table, Link's mouth twitched involuntarily.

It was a strange hammer with a shape very different from that of a normal hammer.

A cylindrical hammer with a spiral drill bit on one end and a flat hammer head on the other.

"Hey, how about it? Surprise, right? Look, this drill is not just for show, it can also rotate."

Dao Fu grasped the handle of the heavy hammer with both hands and lifted it with some effort. With his left hand, he pressed the hidden mechanism on the hammer handle. With a buzzing sound, the spiral drill bit began to spin rapidly, bringing up a gust of air.

Link didn't know what kind of black technology this thing used, nor did he know what energy was used to drive it. He just felt it was abstract.

However, this weapon is made of the material of heavy beetles, so I think it is not too bad.

The sharp drill must have extremely strong armor-piercing ability, and it is estimated that it can even easily break the shell of a five-star flying dragon.

"Come on, try your hand, this thing is not light."

Daofu turned off the spinning drill and handed the man-sized sledgehammer in his hand to Link.

Link reached out to take it, and his hands sank unconsciously. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was still surprised by the weight of the hammer.

But the heavier the hunter's hammer, the more powerful it was, so he just used a little more strength and lifted it easily.

“Good, generous portions.”

Holding the sledgehammer, Link nodded.

Although this hammer comes with a drill bit, the other end is flat, so it can be used as a regular sledgehammer.

"Now that my weapons are ready, I'm going to go hunting. Uncle Daofu, see you next time."

After getting the weapon, Link did not stay in the blacksmith shop any longer. He excitedly took the cat and set off to the abandoned shrine.

Although it was drizzling, the drizzle did not have much impact on the hunters.

With his excellent agility, Link jogged all the way and soon arrived at the camp outside the abandoned shrine.

"It's been a long time, Abandoned Shrine."

Standing on the hillside of the camp, Link looked at the scene below, reached out to pick up Chu Chu, and with a strong jump, he easily jumped off the cliff dozens of meters high.

"Hey."

With a roll to relieve the force on his body, Link landed successfully.

With strong armor and strong physique, Link now will not get hurt even if he jumps from a height of 100 meters, and is gradually moving beyond the scope of normal humans.

Putting Chuchu down in his arms, Link ignored the few raccoons that were slowly approaching out of curiosity. After taking out the map and taking a look at it, he walked towards the habitat of the mud dragon.

As a sea dragon monster that likes to live on land, the mud nest of the Mud Dragon is very easy to find. This guy has similar habits to the Sand Dragon and likes to lurk in the mud to sleep.

Link followed the road and came to a large swamp.

He had been here before. That was his first time hunting the Blue Bear Beast. The Blue Bear Beast was driven here by the Umbrella Bird couple, and had its skull smashed by the Scratching Bird.

From time to time, some bubbles would emerge from the turbid water of the swamp. Link knew that they were small shield crabs lurking underwater.

"Well, the Mud Dragon doesn't seem to be here. Did he go out to look for food?"

After taking a look at the quagmire in front of him, Link did not rush in. The quagmire was not deep, probably only knee-deep.

But now that Niwenglong has arrived, the situation is completely different.

The mud dragon will secrete a special golden dissolving liquid from its tail, which will dissolve the ground and turn it into a deep pool suitable for it to sleep.

God knows how deep this quagmire is now. It will be troublesome if we sink into it.

"Very good, it's a good thing that the Mud Dragon is not at home now. It's not a good idea to fight it in its home ground. Chuchu, let's split up and look for traces of the Mud Dragon nearby."

"Okay meow."

Link calmed himself down, gave Chu Chu an instruction, and then started to move around the periphery of the quagmire.

This area was originally the habitat of giant wild boars. Link hadn't been to the abandoned shrine for a few months, and the giant wild boars here began to proliferate again, with wild boar footprints everywhere.

But now this place has become the lair of the mud dragon, and the big wild boars here have been driven away, and no one knows where they have gone.
