All Heavens: Start with Monster Hunter

Chapter 16 The Approaching Crisis

"really?"

Li Qing's eyes suddenly lit up.

“Oh hehe~~” Seeing Li Qing’s excitement, the village chief laughed elegantly again: “Of course, are you still worried that I’ll lie to you?”

Then he continued, "Actually, my commission was also requested by a guild member. However, it suddenly rained heavily during the day, causing many monsters nearby to become agitated. Most of the hunters went to investigate the situation, so we really don't have enough manpower."

"Since you have accepted two tasks, you must complete double the share."

"But don't be disappointed. You should know that this task alone will earn you 1000 z. If you complete two commissions, that will be 2000 z, which should be enough for you and Old Potter."

"The guild is very generous."

Li Qing smiled and nodded. If it was just a simple collection of materials, it would indeed be a rare reward. Under normal circumstances, getting one third would be considered good.

This is almost like hunting some monsters.

Suddenly noticing the message in the village chief's words, he asked, "Village chief, could it be that the rainstorm caused such a big commotion this time that there aren't enough people to deal with it?"

You should know that although Jieyun Village is not big, it is a gathering place for many businessmen and travelers because of its famous hot springs, Jieyun wood and some other specialties.

As more merchants came, more and more people gathered in Jieyun Village to live here. Naturally, many hunters from other places or small villages also came here to hunt or take on some commissions.

It is not as populous as those cities, but the population is not small, otherwise the Fire Nation's Hunter Guild would not have set up a meeting place in Jieyun Village.

The fact that Jieyun Village was short of manpower showed that the commotion this time was indeed quite big.

When the village chief heard Li Qing's question, a hint of sadness appeared on his elegant face.

"Yes~~"

"For some reason, many monsters living near Lingfeng have come to the vicinity of the village, and some have even attacked merchants."

"Besides, it has been a long time since there has been such heavy rain in the village."

"It's really worrying, I hope it's not a bad omen."

Suddenly, the expression on the village chief's face straightened up and returned to his usual gentle smile: "Well, you little guy can't do anything even if you know this. A little two-star hunter should just go to work and earn money!"

"Ah? Don't look down on me!"

Li Qing didn't expect the village chief to change the subject so quickly. He looked worried just now, but he was making fun of him the next second.

"Okay, okay, I got it. Go and have some rest. Don't be late tomorrow~~"

The village chief, however, acted as if he didn't hear Li Qing's words. He stretched out his hand and fanned Li Qing, driving him away.

Then he watched Li Qing's figure gradually walk away until he could no longer see him clearly in the night. Then he withdrew his gaze and looked towards the sacred peak standing tall in the distant sky.

There was lingering worry in his eyes.

"This rainstorm. The crazy monsters." "I hope it's not that guy."

Li Qing returned home. Old Potter was already resting, and his deafening snoring seemed to blow the roof off the house.

Li Qing had already gotten used to it. He returned to his room, opened the hunter's diary and recorded what happened today.

It mainly records what happened today, such as the process of hunting the Blue Bear Beast and how to repel the Thunder Wolf Dragon.

Of course, there is no mention of crossing into the wizarding world.

Hunter's Notes are something every hunter carries with them.

The original purpose was for exploration hunters to record the information obtained from exploration, the distribution and situation of monsters, new monster information, etc.

But as time went by, this notebook was recognized by the Hunter's Guild and was considered a part of the hunter's equipment. Hunters would even check their notebooks when they upgraded their star levels.

Part of the reason is because of the inconvenience of communication on this continent. Checking the hunter's notes can confirm the identity and approximate experience in the first place, and even show the strength of a hunter.

Also, if every hunter can record what they see and hear in a notebook, they can contribute to the Hunter Guild's investigation of the natural environment, monsters, and common creatures.

There is always strength in numbers.

As for whether someone has forged it privately, probably not. After all, after completing the task, you will get the seal of the party that issued the task. For example, many of the gathering and hunting tasks that Li Qing had completed before were all stamped with the seal of the village chief.

The reason why he did not get the seal when hunting the Blue Bear Beast was because this hunting mission was issued by the instructor, and it was a hunting mission for Li Qing to prove his strength.

The pen tip recorded quickly on the Hunter's Notes, but not too much was written, otherwise it would have been easy to finish a whole book.

Li Qing's attention was not on the pen, but on thinking about the information he had just exchanged with the village chief.

In fact, as a time traveler who is relatively familiar with the Monster Hunter world, Li Qing certainly knows what the guy who caused the storm on the Spiritual Peak is.

However, ever since Li Qing traveled to this world, no figure has been seen on the sacred peak for more than ten years, and even this storm has not appeared.

He was a little worried at first, but as time passed, Li Qing gradually put the matter of that guy behind him.

After all, as a child who has not grown up yet, even if he knows, he can't do anything. If the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up!

But today, through the conversation with the village chief, Li Qing suddenly discovered that the village chief, who was a dragon man, seemed to have no idea what existed on the sacred peak.

But Jieyun Village has existed for many years. If Lanlong had been in Lingfeng all the time, he would have been discovered long ago.

In other words, the reason why I have never heard of Lanlong's information, nor experienced the storm it caused, is it because Lanlong was not in Lingfeng before, but only came to Lingfeng recently?
Or maybe he just arrived at Lingfeng today?

If that's the case, then the storm it created was driving away the other monsters living in Lingfeng!
The monsters that were wreaking havoc in various places and the violent Thunder Wolf Dragon all seemed to have found a culprit and a reasonable reason.

But this guy is not an easy one to deal with. The ancient dragon named 'Tianjin Disaster Land' can even destroy a mountain easily!
The game can be successfully expelled because it is in the game, but in reality, even if all the hunters in Jieyun Village are tied up, they probably won’t be enough to deal with Lanlong’s water bullets!

Sighing, Li Qing closed the hunter's notebook, threw the pen on it, lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.

Whatever happens, go to bed first!
　Why is there no comment? Is it because no one is watching?
