MTL - Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter-Chapter 676 human bondage

  Chapter 676 The Bond of Favor

  Gordon wanted to simplify things, but the head of the brigade obviously didn't want this simplicity.

  He didn't even have the intention of questioning the village head of Big Nose, he directly changed the topic, and pulled the latter to talk enthusiastically about bringing something to deliver the letter.

   Even, the head of the group emphasized that this matter does not owe favors, nor does it require money or goods. It is all about making friends, and the village head can explain everything in the letter sent back.

   As for how to get the desired answer from the great monk, it is his own business.

  Gordon understands that this may also be a strategy of retreating. As long as the attitude is sincere enough, you can always get some initial favor.

  The sugar-coated cannonballs are removed, and there is only delicious candy left, but if you are bombarded with sugar as big as a cannonball, don’t you have to take two steps back?

  The head of the brigade and the village head of Big Nose called for stronger wine and started the second round of "mature men".

  Gordon had no interest in participating. Anyway, he had finished talking about the business, so he said goodbye first and left the tavern.

  Jiangbo Village is very quiet after nightfall, and no one can be seen on the village road, unlike those big cities, where there are so-called "nightlife".

  In such a pioneering village, there are often only two options for night activities, go home and sleep, or go to a pub for a drink or two.

   But not everyone likes to drink.

  Gordon walked slowly.

  Autumn is the season of frequent monsoons. Jiangbo Village is located by the sea. The night wind is relatively strong and whistling. It is not very comfortable to blow the moisture of sea water on the body, but it can blow away the smell of alcohol.

  Gordon didn't want to go back to sleep in the small cabin of the Isana for the time being, so he wandered along the village road.

  This kind of aimless stroll can relax the spirit.

  When he came back to his senses, he was very close to the dense forest on the edge of the village, and the road extended toward the depths of the dense forest until it reached the invisible darkness.

   "This fence doesn't look like it can stop a large monster. Did the hunters stationed in the village sweep up the nearby dense forest too clean?" Gordon muttered, and prepared to walk back.

  Suddenly, he stopped and looked towards the dense forest.

  He heard some movement, but didn't feel nervous.

  Even though he is not carrying a weapon at this time, the armor is worn daily, and it is difficult for ordinary monsters to pose a threat to him.

   What's more, the movement didn't sound like a monster.

   A moment later, a figure appeared at the end of the road.

  The man was not tall, about 170 centimeters, with a well-proportioned physique, carrying a huge package on his shoulders, walking slowly, obviously very tired.

  Noticing the huge figure in front of him, he was obviously stunned, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to the hilt of the sword, but when he confirmed that the person standing there was blurred by the moonlight, he stopped his movements.

   "Rosie?" he called tentatively.

  The tallest person in the village is his great swordsman partner, but this person in front of him seems to be a circle taller than Rossi.

"Well"

  Gordon realized that he was in the way of others, and stepped out of the way.

  The two looked at each other curiously. After a few seconds, Gordon spoke first: "You are Keogh, right? The village chief mentioned you. I am Gordon, a passing hunter."

   "I'm Keogh, hello, Mr. Gordon." Keogh was a very polite young man. He offered to shake hands with Gordon.

  Gordon was thinking about whether it was time for him to leave, but Keogh suddenly asked, "Mr. Gordon, would you like to come to my house?"

   It seemed that he realized that his invitation was a bit abrupt, Keogh scratched his head, and said embarrassedly: "Ah, I'm sorry, I almost forgot it's so late, ahaha"

From the hunter who has not completely faded from his youthful spirit, Gordon saw some shadows of his past, he thought for a while, and said with a smile: "It just so happens that I am also a little thirsty, let's ask for a cup of tea. "

   "Ah, good!" Keogh looked very happy.

   Carrying the heavy package behind him, Keogh quickened his pace and led Gordon to the house where he lived.

  Gordon was asked to sit down at the only table, the lamp was lit, and after putting down the packages and weapons, Keogh hurried to boil water and make tea.

  Gordon looked around by the light.

   This is a typical hunter's cabin, about 20 to 30 square meters. It is not spacious, and there is no distinction between the inside and the outside, but the walls, roof, doors and windows are all trimmed very firmly, and no wind and rain can leak in.

  Jiangbo Village is a typical pioneering village. As a resident hunter, Keogh probably has a lot of tasks on weekdays. He probably doesn't have the time and carpentry skills to take care of this small house.

   It should be the help of the people in the village.

   After burning firewood and boiling water, Keogh discovered that the tea leaves at home were moldy. He wanted to run out to borrow some from other people, but was stopped by Gordon.

   "Don't bother, just drink some water." Gordon said with a smile.

  He didn’t really come here to drink that cup of tea

  Keough seemed a little embarrassed, Gordon gestured him to sit down, and started the topic, "When I first debuted, I also considered coming to Jiangbo Village, which was just established at that time.

  If we had come here at that time, we might have known each other long ago. "

   Under Gordon's initiation, Keogh, who was not introverted, quickly opened up the chatterbox.

  A rebellious boy of fifteen or sixteen years old left the East Doruma hunter training camp talking to himself, took his late father's double water dragon sabers, and ran to Jiangbo village recklessly.

  Even with a good weapon, he couldn't even beat the big wild boar and the blue velociraptor at the beginning.

  Later, with the help of a light crossbowman named Kurt Aiz, he gradually completed the missing foundation, gradually grew and matured.

   "Kurt Ez, haha, so it's that guy, he's your master." Gordon knew this guy, he was also a hunter from East Doruma, a very good light crossbowman, and a guild knight.

   "Mr. Kurt Aiz didn't let me call him master." Keogh scratched his head and said.

   "That guy's character is indeed a bit awkward." Gordon commented casually.

   Keogh asked curiously: "Are Mr. Gordon and Kurt Az familiar?"

   "Not very familiar, he and my senior brother are both guild knights, so we have met a few times."

"Like This"

  Looking at Keogh's slight hesitation, Gordon couldn't help but smile. He could roughly guess what the other party was hesitating about.

   I guess I want to ask myself, how to become stronger?

  The experiences of the two are actually somewhat similar. They both left their hometown when they were teenagers. He went from a small mountain village to a big city, while Keogh was the exact opposite.

   Came to a new environment, fell into confusion, and was taken care of by the seniors, and gradually grew up.

   Then, there is a bottleneck.

  Back then, when he just arrived in East Doruma, his state of mind was actually very similar to Keogh’s. The four-star hunter’s performance was considered excellent among his peers, but how could he go further?

   I don’t understand, I don’t know.

  At that time, she just met Fengying. In Fengying's eyes, she might be mature, powerful and full of confidence, but is this really the case?

   As the core move of the great swordsman, the strong charge slash was conceived in the tavern from the "stealing teacher" of the drunken great swordsman, and then continued to fight against monsters.

  It is impossible to learn the true charge cut.

  It wasn't until I met the master that I finally ushered in the opportunity for explosive growth, transformed my accumulation into strength, and jumped to the upper level in just half a year.

   In Gordon's view, Keogh has clearly entered this stage.

  At this time, it is the most suitable option for him to go out and travel, looking for opportunities for his own transformation.

   But he was obviously bound.

   The word **** may not sound very nice, but in other words it is the bond of human affection.
