MTL - Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter-Chapter 28 seriously injured

  Chapter 28 Serious Injury

   Ge regained consciousness, it was already four or five days later.

  At this time, he was lying on his own bed, covered with bandages and immobilization, looking half-dead and miserable.

   This is indeed the most serious injury he has suffered since he became a hunter.

After careful examination by the village doctor, he had more than ten fractures all over his body, the laceration on his back healed very slowly due to the toxin residue, multiple burns on his back skin, his lungs were infected due to choking into the river water, and his internal organs were also injured due to the violent impact. A certain displacement.

  It can be said that it is no small miracle that he survived.

  After the sun fell into the river that day, he and the pork chop were washed away for nearly two kilometers. Most of the bruises and fractures were left at that time.

  If it wasn't for a bend in the river with relatively gentle water flow not far downstream, he and the pig chop were washed ashore, and they might have drowned at that time.

  When he was washed ashore, Gordon had already fallen into a deep coma. Luckily, Pig Chop was still awake. It sent out a distress signal in time, and attracted the Ellu tribe living nearby, and transported them both out of the deep mountains.

  When Gordon, who was seriously injured, was sent back to Cocot Village, the instructors and they were all terrified.

  Even the old village head of the dragon tribe, who always looked like an senile dementia, came over in person to check his injuries.

  The only good news is that this guy's body is strong enough. Although the injury was serious, he did not leave any irreversible damage.

   Just to ensure perfect healing of the bones, a full month in bed is a must.

  Recovery medicine can indeed greatly speed up this process, but excessive consumption of recovery medicine is likely to cause hyperplasia and dislocation during bone healing.

  So, those who should rest still should rest.

   During the period of recuperating in bed, Gordon became a little silent.

  The failure of the mission, the disastrous defeat by Xiong Huolong, and the fact that he almost lost his life if his partner Zhu Chop hadn't tried his best to rescue him, all of this hit him quite hard.

  It is actually very common among hunters to experience a drastic change in personality after a failed mission. Not everyone can successfully get out of the shadow of fear of death.

   Too many hunters have since put down their weapons, or lost the courage to continue to challenge powerful monsters, and become a "gatherer hunter" who has been busy all his life.

  As Gordon's instructor, Ernest naturally had similar worries, but after hesitating, he still chose not to interfere.

  Even if the former gives up being a hunter, he will not be angry. People who are not enlightened enter the hunting ground to seek their own death, and this kind of "enlightenment" cannot be poured out with a few words of chicken soup.

   Whether you can regain your courage can only depend on the person concerned.

  However, it turned out that Ernest's worries were unnecessary.

  On the first day he was able to get out of bed, Gordon came to the pork chop with a cane, and solemnly apologized to it for his previous recklessness.

   Then he came to the instructor's home, seriously reflected and reviewed his mistakes.

  He knew very well that if it wasn’t for repeated orders from the instructor before the mission, telling him to bring antidote and flash bombs, he wouldn’t know how many times he should have died.

   As for giving up being a hunter, Gordon never even thought about it.

   Rather, the desire to become stronger in his heart at this time is unprecedentedly high.

   "Xiong Charmander, just wait, that day won't be too long."

   More than a month has passed by in a hurry.

   Gordon, who had finished his recovery training for the day, returned home with the pork chops. The cool well water poured over his body, flowing through the muscles that were bulging due to full congestion, taking away the sweat and steaming heat.

  Gordon stretched himself comfortably, while the pork chop shook his body, throwing water droplets everywhere.

  The injury he suffered in the battle with Xiong Huolong has fully recovered, and Gordon can even feel that his physical fitness has improved a lot compared to a month ago.

   Is this the so-called breaking and then building?

After taking a cold shower, Gordon returned to his room. There was a brand new set of armor hanging on the figure stand next to the storage box. He walked up and touched the shiny alloy armor, and then a Wear the armor piece by piece.

  The original blue velociraptor suit was seriously damaged in the breath attack of the male fire dragon, and it has lost the meaning of repairing.

  So, at the suggestion of the instructor, he placed an order with the workshop to create this new set of equipment called "Refined Ore Set".

  The materials of the new suit are mainly ore materials such as earth crystals, iron ore, and larkite. It is matched with a small number of blue velociraptor skins. The overall defense power is at the same level as the blue velociraptor suit.

  However, due to the use of a large amount of metal materials, the weight of the refined ore suit is also heavier than that of the blue Athlon suit. Fortunately, with Gordon's current physical fitness, this weight is not a burden.

   He is already very satisfied that he can use the materials in stock to create such excellent equipment.

  As for why the armor is now equipped, it is because the instructor told him very seriously this morning that he was asked to go to the village chief's house after finishing the training, as if he had something very important to say.

  Just as the big men in the city always wear new robes when they get together, Gordon feels that if he wants to show his importance, he must also wear new armor.

  Well, to put it bluntly, he just wanted to find a reason to try new equipment.

  He came to the village chief's house in full armor, and sure enough, the instructor Ernest was also here.

  The instructor and the village chief were a little speechless looking at Gordon's fully clothed appearance outside the door, but they didn't say much. Too many hunters are used to wearing armor as ordinary clothes.

   "Come in quickly, oh yes, put the explosive knife at the door, don't step on the floor of the village chief's house." Ernest laughed and cursed.

  Gordon scratched his head, put down his weapon, stepped on the "creaky" floor, and walked into the village chief's house.

  Two strong men and a skinny old man sat around a small table less than half a meter high. This scene looked a little funny.

  The instructor glanced at the staggering village chief, who was about to fall asleep, sighed, and took the initiative to start the conversation, saying: "Gordon, you are almost an adult, right?"

  Gordon was stunned when he heard the words, but still nodded and responded: "Yes, I will be eighteen next month."

  The instructor was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly: "That's right, that brat who was clamoring to be a hunter back then is now a guy taller than me."

  Gordon blinked, some did not understand what the instructors meant.

   "It's my problem. I always feel that you are immature, a fledgling who can't fly solo, so I keep you **** in the nest." The instructor continued talking to himself.

   "Instructor?" Gordon, who felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird, opened his mouth cautiously.

As if he had finally made up his mind, the instructor suddenly raised his head. He stared into Gordon's eyes and said, "Gordon, you are a very talented guy, and you are willing to work hard. I firmly believe that your future achievements will depend on me." above."

   Never heard an instructor praise himself so bluntly, Gordon was a little at a loss.

Before he could say anything, the instructor continued: "But Keket Village is too small and too remote, there are not many tasks that can be assigned, and more than half of them are either collecting mushrooms or hunting raw meat. It is difficult to find two-star missions on the spectrum, and even three-star missions may not be received in a month.

  In retrospect, what you said at the time, ‘I want to see what a fire dragon looks like’ must have been just an excuse. If you had more suitable choices at that time, you wouldn’t have chosen the task of stealing fire dragon eggs. "

  Gordon twitched the corners of his mouth. He really went there purely for excitement, and now he wants to tell the truth

  Will he be beaten by the instructor?

  Let’s not talk too much now.
