Foreigner's Journey

The two chatted while walking, and soon arrived at the door of the training center.

"Come on AIBO, I'll wait for you at the door."

"It won't make you wait long."

Saying goodbye to Ilsan for a while, Heather pushed open the door of the training center, only to find that it was pitch dark inside and nothing could be seen.

After taking two steps forward, the door behind him automatically closed with a bang, the only light disappeared, and the surroundings fell into absolute darkness.

But Heather wasn't in a hurry at all. When he opened it, he sensed that there was a lifeform not far in front of him. It was estimated that he was brewing some dramatic appearance.

laugh!

Sure enough, the surrounding torches suddenly lit up, and a tall middle-aged man with a mustache stood on the box with his arms folded over his chest, with an unfathomable look:

"Oh oh oh! There is another new recruit who wants to embark on the way of hunting. I can feel the confusion and fear in your heart. It doesn't matter, even if you put your heart in your pelvis, I will teach you how to thoroughly. With the weapon in your hand, you are the future hunting star!"

After speaking, Heather's ranting ended, and the scene fell into an awkward silence for a while.

The mustache instructor held his hand beside his mouth and coughed: "Cough, so you want to get the hunting qualification. Boy, this is not easy?"

"Just use the weapon to pass the trial, right?" Heather touched the hilt behind his left shoulder: "Are you going to fight with you?"

"Of course not fighting me. You want to be a monster hunter, not a guild knight."

The instructor shook his finger: "If you want to be a qualified hunter, you must have a flexible mind and a wealth of knowledge, as well as athletic ability and strength beyond ordinary people."

With that said, he turned and walked towards the door on the other side of the house:

"follow me."

After pushing open the gate and walking along the mountain road for a short distance, what came into sight was a circular arena built on the mountain, the kind without auditoriums.

In the center of the field, three dog dragons were wandering loosely.

"What you have to do is enter the arena and stay under the attack of the three dog dragons for 3 minutes, or defeat them." The instructor raised his eyebrows at Heather: "It's very simple, right? Don't try to escape, the arena It's so big, you can't outrun those dog dragons. Remember, use weapons flexibly, don't be greedy for knives."

Heather nodded, took a few steps forward and was about to jump down but stopped.

The instructor thought that Heather regretted it, and said loudly, "It doesn't matter. If you are not ready, you can come later. Caution is a virtue."

"I just wanted to ask a question."

Heather pulled out the huge sword behind him and smiled slightly: "If I kill these dog dragons, it won't make me lose money, right?"

The instructor shook his head dumbfounded: "Don't worry, I won't let you pay. I said, don't underestimate these dog dragons. Young people in the village who want to be hunters are often beaten up by them. Those with outstanding strength like Luther The young man also ran for 3 minutes in the arena with his amazing foot strength, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Heather jump down from the arena with a knife.

Tsk, young man... The instructor walked to the edge of the arena, stroked the hilts of the double knives behind his waist, and was ready to jump off the arena for rescue at any time.

Heather landed lightly and looked at the dog dragon who was startled and gradually surrounded him. He gently shook the tachi in his hand, and the blade reflected a cold light.

Exactly, try them out and see if they work.

###Chapter 9 The way of the sword begins with a beating###

The Outlander's Journey Outlander and the Full-Time Hunter Chapter 9 The Way of the Sword, which begins with being beaten "Take your sword and get out!"

Bang!

With a loud noise, Heather, who was holding the Yuyun Taida sword, watched with a dull expression as the door of the training center slammed shut.

"It came out so soon... AIBO, isn't it going well?" Ilsan, who was waiting patiently at the door, leaned over and asked.

"Uh... as far as the results are concerned, it did pass the test."

Heather didn't know how to tell Ilsan, he didn't expect so many ways to use the tachi.What the hell is the principle of 'air blade whirling slash' and 'blade opening'?Why do you use it as an ordinary bastard swinging a knife?

Not to mention the so-called 'Denglong Slash', which requires you to jump to a high altitude before stabbing the blade, then make a vertical split from top to bottom, and strike seven times with the help of sword energy.As a result, when he arrived at Heather's side, he didn't even perform a complete dragon slash, and the three dog dragons were trampled to death by him.

The mournful screams of the dog dragons echoed between the arena and the mountains for a long time.

In the end, the mustache instructor couldn't stand it anymore, jumped down to stop Heather's bestiality, and left a comment [You should not use too much knife, a fire stick is better], and then drove Heather out of the training center.

Of course, the [defeat of three dog dragons] required by the assessment was completed, and the certificate indicating the completion of the assessment was also in Heather's pocket.

Heather scratched the back of his head: "Anyway, at least now I am qualified to officially form a hunting team with you. Go to the village chief and see if there is a suitable task?"

"Ah."

Ilsan snickered, she guessed it now, it must be that Heather didn't know how to use the sword, and when he arrived at the training center, he swung the sword at random and made the instructor angry, so he was kicked out.But Heather doesn't even know how to use weapons, but he can easily pass the assessment without taking any damage. Doesn't this just show his strength?

Teach him how to use the dagger when he goes to the hunting area.

The two chatted while walking, and after a while, they arrived at the small square in the center of Jieyun Village.Unsurprisingly, the beautiful village chief of the Dragon Race was looking through the task list while sitting on a bench covered with a red carpet.

"Oh? You passed the test so quickly. Lord Heather is really amazing."

Seeing the certificate presented by Heather, the village chief covered his mouth and chuckled: "Since Lord Ilsan and Lord Heather are going to form a team to act together, would you like to try this mission?"

Saying that, she took out a task list and handed it to the two of them.

Ilsan took the task list and got together with Heather to study it for a while, then nodded to the village chief: "No problem, we'll take this task."

The content of the task is to hunt or capture a green bear beast that is close to the safe area of ​​​​the stream. Because of its existence, the villagers cannot even gather honey in the safe area. The reward for the task is 3000Z, which is quite considerable.

However, according to the description of the task content, it seems that this green bear beast is larger than the ordinary green bear beast. The client hopes that the hunter will be more vigilant and not underestimate the enemy.

"By the way, Lord Heather, you said that you aspired to become a member of the Scholar Team?" the village chief suddenly asked.

"Well, I have this plan." Heather nodded.

"Actually, I also know a member of the Scholar Team. She asked me to find good seedlings in Jieyun Village. After all, qualified Scholar Officers are rare even in the whole world."

The village chief took out a folded task list and handed it to Heather: "This is a task that she specially issued. I wonder if you are interested?"

Heather took a look and found that this was an ecological survey task, and the target creature was the green bear beast.

The mission requirements are very simple - under the premise of safety, investigate the ecology of the green bear beast as much as possible, organize it into a written report and submit it to the scrivener team.

At the end of the commission, the commissioner emphasized that this task is only for talents who have enough patience and reliable teammates, and who are determined to become members of the scrivener team, and hinted between the lines that it is best to pay attention to the smoothness of the sentences when arranging the written report and not to have too many typos.

Heather smiled and folded the task list back into his pocket: "Leave it to me."

It's like writing a graduation thesis in another world?Heather didn't hate this feeling.

Just as the two were about to bid farewell to the village chief to prepare hunting supplies, a villager with a black turban hurried over: "Village chief! Not good, village chief!"

Ilsan and Heather looked at each other, and they did not leave out of the gossip mentality of watching the excitement, but stood by and overheard.

The beautiful village chief of the Dragon Race handed the villagers a handkerchief and said gently, "Slow down, don't worry, what happened?"

The villagers wiped the sweat from their foreheads and said angrily, "The four juniper trees on the periphery of the dense forest of streams were cut down!"

Heather and Ilsan froze and began to sweat on their foreheads.

"You mean...the four 20-year-old top-grade cloud trees?" The village chief covered his mouth in surprise.

"Yes! It's those four trees! It was fine when I went to inspect it a week ago, but now the order for the Yunyun weapon series reserved by the Dongdoruma Hunters Guild is going to fail!"

The villagers gritted their teeth in annoyance: "Don't let me catch that bastard thief! It's too vicious to cut down the four 20-year-old cloud trees if it's not good!"

The village chief caressed the side of his face: "Don't worry, could the monster accidentally break it?"

"Impossible, the surrounding trees are all good, but the four juniper trees were cut down, and the stubble is obviously the trace of cutting with sharp weapons, it can't be wrong. No, I have to go back and see, that damn thief …”

Villagers in black hoods grumbled and walked away.

The village chief sighed softly, turned his head to look at the two people watching the play: "Alas, because the thunder and lightning monsters have occupied the deep area of ​​the stream recently, the inspection interval of the forest patrol team has been greatly extended, and there will always be some daring people who take risks rashly. Entering the depths of the stream, I hope they are not attacked by monsters... Huh? Why are you sweating profusely, Lord Heather?"

"Uh, hot, hot." Heather's mouth pouted into a '3', and her eyes were erratic.

"Really, the weather is obviously suitable... ah, Lord Ilsan, you too..."

"It's hot, it's hot." Ilshan's face flushed with suffocation: "We have to hurry up to prepare for the mission, and continue to chat when we come back, village chief."

After that, the two hurried away.

The village chief looked at the figures of the two moving away, with a clear smile on his face, picked up the steaming tea cup beside him and blew it, and looked up at the clear sky:

"Oh, what a nice weather with a suitable temperature."

..............................

The hunting ground area marked on the map only accounts for a very small part of the stream area, in fact, many areas are still in the original unexplored state.

No one knows what kind of monsters exist deeper in the stream.

The stream hunting area near Jieyun Village is relatively safe. Although many areas are blocked due to the appearance of thunder and lightning monsters, hunting tasks that are closer and less dangerous are still allowed to be issued and accepted.

Carrying luggage and weapons, the two and two cats walked unhurriedly along the bank of the clear stream.

"What should I do, Heather will definitely be arrested for the crime of [stealing and destroying the precious cloud tree], and I will also be punished for the crime of covering up, maybe even the monster hunter qualification will be revoked."

Ilsan's broken thoughts annoyed Heather, he put down the map in his hand, and corrected: "123, didn't you realize that the village chief has actually figured out that the real murderer is me? She didn't tie me up and escort me. She has already explained her attitude to Wang Lijun."

"Ugh?"

"Compared with a few knot cloud trees, the village chief's attention is all on the thunder and lightning monster." Heather waved his fingers: "As long as you take one step at a time, you can finally drive away or hunt down the thunder and lightning monster smoothly. Chang not only won't investigate the matter of Jieyunmu, but will hold a celebration feast for us both."

"Really, really?" Ilsan felt that her life had returned from black and white to full color.

"Of course, don't worry."

Heather opened the map to observe carefully, then compared the surrounding environment, and finally nodded: "It should be around here, where the giant green bear beast haunted. Xiaoba, let's start."

Hachi and Sasaki's mission as follower cats is to assist hunters as much as possible. After receiving the order, the two immediately began to search for dry wood and fire, and began to prepare special honey bait used to attract blue bear beasts.

While Ilsan and Heather stood by the stream, the two were facing each other with daggers.

This is Heather's request, and he hopes that Ilsan can teach him how to properly use the true power of the tachi, which is the [air blade].

"AIBO, are you sure you want to practice with me with real weapons? Let's start with theoretical knowledge first." Ilsan looked worried: "Monster hunter weapons are powerful, and if they are used against humans, it is very likely..."

"It's not duel training, it's you who attacked me unilaterally. Come, attack me with the sword in your hand!"

Only by seeing and experiencing it with his own eyes can Heather use his unparalleled talent to learn the skills of using the tachi as soon as possible.

Seeing that Heather's attitude was so determined, Ilsan had no choice but to nod her head, turned the handle of the knife to face Heather, took a deep breath and snorted softly, "Be careful!"

Accompanied by the violent sound of breaking the air, Ilsan stepped forward and swung the sword towards Heather from top to bottom. Heather swung the sword to hold it firmly and leapt backwards lightly with the help of strength.
