Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

It took Gordon a long time to strip the corpses of the strange face tribe.

Hayata also came to help under the instructions of Amos, but seeing her timid appearance, it was obvious that she was not very used to the collection of blood Zilahu.

Fortunately, the stripping of the odd-faced tribe is relatively simple, mainly to check their luggage, without the need to peel and tear apart the bones, otherwise the girl who has just gotten used to the bloody scenes may have to spit it out on the spot again.

Gordon's luck was still hopelessly bad, and the "most valuable" thing he found was a half-eaten dried shiitake mushroom after searching the corpses of a dozen odd-faced people.

Gordon rolled his eyes, threw the pile of rubbish aside, and only took away the fragments of the strange-faced mask as proof of the completion of the crusade mission.

If it was just this, Gordon wouldn't feel too depressed. After all, it is common sense for him to say that "the odd-faced people only have garbage on them."

However, Hayatta, who stripped monsters for the first time to collect materials, told him with actions that you are the only one with a black face.

There were only two Qimian corpses processed by Hariyata, but it was these two corpses that allowed her to harvest enviable treasures.

She found a metal pendant on the neck of a Qimian, and after scrubbing off the dirt, she found that it was an exotic gold coin in good condition.

According to Amos, although the main material of this so-called "gold coin" is brass, it is also an antique in the true sense. It should be sold to merchants who are interested in this area, and there should be a few thousand z.

While Gordon was staring enviously at the foreign gold coin in the girl's hand, Hayata took out a small piece of rough crystal stone about the size of a finger from the carry-on bag of the second Qimian corpse.

Now even Amos couldn't help looking over.

He took the rough crystal from Hayata's hand, looked at the grain structure inside the crystal against the sun, pulled out the white ape shaving, scratched the surface of the crystal a few times with the blade, and checked its hardness.

Finally, with a delicate expression, he returned the small piece of rough crystal to Hayatta, and said in a slightly strange tone: "This is a brilliant crystal, um, or a higher level of pure crystal is also fine.

The only regret is that it is too small to be used as equipment material, but even as jewelry, its value is not low. You can keep it as an ornament yourself, or ask your uncle to find a jewelry craftsman to refine it and sell it. It can be worth a lot of money to those noble ladies in the city. "

Gordon: "."

Dare to touch this guy twice, how many times more than his total reward for this mission?

Feelings are emotions, but Gordon has no intention of taking these two good things for himself.

The strange-faced tribe did not hunt alone. If Amos hadn't anticipated that the king of the strange-faced tribe might appear, and specially joined the mission to help, he might have died in the mountains this time.

He doesn't have such a thick skin for begging for treasures.

But as expected, he was still very angry!

"Damn it, is this the luck of a novice! But I didn't find any good things back then?" Gordon squatted silently beside the pile of garbage he had thrown away, and Gordon began to murmur with resentment on his face.

"Luck is something that is predestined by the heavens, meow, and it's useless to regret it, meow!"

The consolation of the pork chop's low EQ didn't help. Gordon grabbed it and rubbed it.

"Pfft~"

Noticing Gordon's playful interaction with the pork chop, Hayatta, who was admiring the charming luster of the pure crystal, couldn't help laughing.

She whispered a few words to Amos, and after seeing the latter nodded indifferently, she trotted over to Gordon, who was holding a pork chop and was as low as a giant mushroom.

"Senior Gordon~, this is for you."

Hayata smiled and stuffed the exotic gold coin into Gordon's hand, "Whoever sees it will have a share. I have been very lucky since I was a child. Let me share it with you~."

Looking at the shiny and introverted ancient coin in his palm, Gordon was stunned for a moment, then stood up hastily, ready to decline.

Unexpectedly, Amos spoke first, "Accept it. After hunting in a team, it is a rule to share the spoils according to the merits. Most of these strange face tribes were killed by you. You should take the big head."

"You are the king of Keqimian Clan."

"The appearance of the King of the Odd Face Clan was an accident and has nothing to do with the mission itself. The value of that piece of pure crystal is far higher than that of foreign gold coins, so you can accept it with confidence."

Amos interrupted Gordon again with a smile, and diverted the topic to another direction, "Isn't 20 odd-faced tribes enough to kill?"

Gordon still felt a little embarrassed, but he also knew that it was not appropriate to continue to decline. He smiled at Hayatta shyly, and finally put away the gold coins.

Then, as if trying to cover up the surprise and shame in his heart, Gordon replied seriously, "Enough is enough. There are fifteen corpses of the strange-faced tribe here, and the previous nine are more than enough."

"Very well, let's go back."

The one-week crusade mission was completed without any risk on the first day, and Gordon couldn't help but feel anticlimactic.

It took them more than an hour to return to the camp, rested for the night, left the hunting ground the next day, hitched a ride with a passing caravan, and embarked on a journey back to Minagarde.

In fact, based on Gordon's past habits, if the task is completed early and he is in good condition, he will choose to continue to stay in the hunting ground for a period of time to collect some minerals, herbs and other materials, as well as settlement items such as specialty shiitake mushrooms. Maximize your earnings.

However, he could also understand Amos' decision to return immediately. After all, the king of the strange-faced clan still lived in this forest.

Before the Qimian Clan's sacrifice was over and the King of the Qimian Clan returned to the deep mountains, this place was no longer suitable for two-star hunters like myself and beginners like Hayata.

But he still couldn't figure it out.

Why did senior Amos let go of the king of the strange face clan under the absolute advantage?

On the van returning to Minergard City, Gordon asked the question in his heart.

"I knew you were going to ask this question."

Amos's expression became serious, and he even specifically called out Hayata who was lying on the top of the pile of goods and teasing the pork chops. After the two young people sat down obediently in front of him, he continued:

"What do you think is the duty of a hunter, and what should be the relationship between human beings and nature?"

When Hayatta and Gordon heard this, they looked at each other in blank dismay.

Is this a theory class? Philosophy class? Is it an ideological and moral class?

"The job of a hunter should be to eliminate dangerous monsters. As for the relationship between humans and nature, it should be competition."

Gordon's answer was quite satisfactory, Amos nodded, and looked at Hayatta again.

Hayata thought for a while, and said: "The hunter's duty is to protect the survival and development of human beings. In terms of the relationship between human beings and nature, the competition that Senior Gordon said is one aspect, and coexistence, right?"

A smile appeared in Amos' eyes.

Obviously, Hayatta's answer is more in line with his wishes, but Gordon's slightly radical philosophy is not wrong.

At least in the current era when the human activity area only accounts for less than 10% of the entire world, Gordon's ideas are absolutely mainstream.
