Chapter 1597 [Claws of the Wasteland 1] Neutralize it
(This is a short chapter with Huali as the protagonist. The timeline is basically synchronized with [Talks of the Future], which is 10 years after the main line. , I originally wanted to write it directly in the future talk, but since it is a relatively complete short story, I thought about it and made a separate title)
The young swordsman wearing a dust-proof cloak, walked Enter the open-air tavern by the lake.
The hunters in the tavern cast their gazes.
Not affected by sand and dust, with a fair complexion, a dust-proof cloak that never leaves his body, and a temperament that is completely different from the people of the desert.
There are various signs that this is a "foreigner" who came from outside the desert area.
Some people directly withdrew their gaze. Over the years, Lockrak has developed rapidly. The strange faces in the hunter gathering hall are not uncommon, and there is nothing to be surprised about.
There were also some sharp-eyed guys who noticed the thunder wolf dragon suit hidden under the cloak. Knowing that this was a powerful guy, they raised their glasses and said hello to her.
The Dual Swordsman was not indifferent, but he was not the kind of guy with a warm personality either. After a slight nod in response, he walked towards the counter.
"Hello?"
Facing the imposing dual-sword wielder striding forward, behind the counter, the little poster girl, who was obviously still an intern, was a little nervous and stammered.
Fortunately, at this moment, a lady wearing a red soft hat came over and said, "Let me receive this lady."
Kicked away the mustache that wanted to come over. President, the lady in the red bonnet showed her face to the Dual Swordsman. With a hearty smile, "Hello, I am Aisha from the Loklak Guild. How can I help you?"
"Huali." The dual-sword user simply reported his name. , and handed over his hunter's notes and mission documents.
Ai Xia took it with both hands, quickly looked through it and then looked at the visitor again in surprise.
Even now that the guild has expanded on a large scale and is known as the "Golden Age", five-star hunters of this age are still quite rare.
The dual-sword user named Huali took the initiative to speak and explained the purpose of his visit, "I am relatively new to the desert area, and the goal of this mission is a bit tricky. I hope to find one or two local hunters to accompany me."< br>
Ai Xia nodded clearly, "I understand, I will help you go through the procedures and recruit companions now. The receipt will be posted on the bulletin board soon, and if someone picks it up, you will be notified immediately."
"Thank you, and also, I hope to rent a hunter's cabin, the most common one. "
As soon as Huali finished speaking, a thick arm stretched out from the side and put it on her shoulder.
Huali, who didn't like this kind of physical contact, turned cold and was about to make a move to twist and hold the arm, but the man grabbed her shoulder first.
"Chief, this suddenly came to my territory, why didn't you inform us in advance?"
The familiar voice made Huali stunned for a moment, but she still turned around subconsciously He lowered his shoulders, slid away the other person's arm, and looked sideways at that person.
That was a strong female swordsman.
She is over 190 centimeters tall, and her muscles are even stronger than many male hunters. Her hands are as big as dinner plates, making people doubt that she can kill a big wild boar with one punch.
All in all, it is very consistent with the stereotype of ordinary people's concept of "hunter".
"Haifa." Huali said the other person's name in a smooth tone, as a greeting, "Also, don't call me chief, we have graduated several years ago."
Facing Huali's cold attitude, Haifa didn't care either.
In those years in the training camp, she had long been accustomed to the other party's seemingly cold temperament.
Tugged the other party to find an empty seat, pressed Huali's shoulders and asked her to sit down, "I haven't heard anything from you in the past few years, have you returned to your hometown?"
"Yes."
Although it is not obvious on the surface, in fact, Huali is in a good mood to be reunited with familiar people after a long absence. "In a remote village, I have been a resident for several years. Hunter.
I hunted all the dangerous monsters near the village, and the guild also sent young hunters who had just graduated to replace them. Ren, I’ll just go out and take a look.”
“It’s okay if the hunt is clean.” Haifa grinned as if he had a toothache, “What’s the mission of coming to Lockark this time?”
"Well, I am hunting a tail axosaurus. That kind of monster is too big and extremely difficult to kill. I plan to find one or two companions together." Huali answered truthfully.
"Tailaxe dragon. It's true that where the skin is thicker, your swords can't even penetrate the sebum."
As he spoke, Haifa bared his fangs like a roaring dragon and stretched out his big teeth. He pointed his thumb at the red and blue heavy armor on his body.
"Hey! Speaking of which, how do you know that we just hunted the Dragon Slaying, promoted to five stars, and made the Dragon Slaying Set? Since you invited me so sincerely, I will go with you. Trip! "
" I didn’t invite you, please go and get the task receipt yourself.”
“You are still so arrogant. By the way, I just heard that you want to rent a hunter’s cabin? You are already at my door. Why do you rent one? Room? Stay at my house!
Come on, let me put your luggage at home first, and then I will take you for a walk around the city. This food festival is about to begin, and the city is very lively! "
After finishing his words, without waiting for Huali's response, Haifa stood up directly, picked up the former's luggage and walked out.
When Huali saw this, he had no choice but to follow. .
As expected, I still couldn’t handle this guy.
Under the leadership of Haifa, the two of them walked along the path, twisting and turning, and soon they came to a straight road. On the street.
Compared with other neighborhoods in Loklak, which are bustling with stalls and stalls everywhere, it seems a bit too quiet here.
Haifa introduced as he walked, "Over there is the scrivener team's station in Lockak. The building on the left is the largest library in the desert. The Gulong Observation Bureau also has its headquarters here. Research Institute.
After all, well, you know, every year. Great desert feast, right? Scholars like it here.
So, there are a lot of 'guys with glasses' living on this street, so in order to avoid disturbing the research, they are generally not allowed to set up stalls."
"Do you live here?" Huali asked somewhat incomprehensibly.
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"I thought your home would be in a slaughterhouse or something."
"I think so." Haifa curled his lips, " In this hellish place, if you speak louder, your father will scold you. If it weren't for the convenience of the old man's research work, he would have moved to another place long ago."
Hua Li looked at Haifa and took it with her. Heartfelt shock.
“Your father is a scholar of the Scriveners Team?!”
"That's right, isn't that what you are looking at?" Haifa looked back, "Is it weird that my dad is a scholar?"
"I remember that you had a basic foundation when you entered the training camp, and I thought your parents were both He's a hunter."
"Mom is indeed a hunter. Here we are!" Haifa stood in front of a sandstone house, raised his big foot and kicked it away! Door.
“I’m back!”
It can be seen from the footprints on the door that she kicked the door like this not once or twice.
Hua Li, who was following behind, lowered her head. Even though this was Haifa's home, she felt inexplicably ashamed of Haifa's rude behavior and didn't dare to face his parents directly
Haifa pulled her Hua Li came to the living room, "I'm at home, I'm bringing my friends back!"
Hua Li quickly raised her head, ready to say hello to Haifa's parents.
She was mentally prepared to look up and see a thin, elegant, old scholar wearing glasses and a scholar's robe, sitting behind a large desk piled with books, looking at them with a smile.
However, the style of the scene in front of her was somewhat different from what she had imagined.
"Bang!"
The huge barbell, which I don't know how heavy it weighed, but I couldn't pull it up with my own strength, was thrown to the ground with a loud noise.
A wild lady who was more than a hair thicker than her friend Haifa, and her dark skin was covered with indigo war tattoos, shook her sweaty thick arms and walked forward. .
It can be seen from the gray hair and wrinkles on his face that the other party is no longer young.
But Huali believed that it would not be too stressful for this lady to wrestle with the Green Bear with bare hands.
Putting titles with a hint of weakness such as "Mrs. XX", "Mrs. XX" and "Mother-in-law XX" on her head, it feels too inconsistent
"Oh, Thunder Wolf Dragon? Little girl Not bad." The lady bared her white fangs that were exactly the same as Haifa's and commented with a smile.
"Let's go buy some food and come back. You two little guys can play by yourself. Treat it as your own home and feel free to do whatever you want."
After saying that, the lady who looked like an iron tower said " He left with a bang.
“.”
Huali withdrew her gaze and stared at Haifa, who was tall and strong but still within the scope of a "normal person" for a few seconds. "I now believe that your father is a scholar."
"What do you mean? ? "
" should be in Make peace."
"?"
"Nothing, your mother must be a strong hunter, right? Wait. Lockak, the strong woman who uses heavy weapons. Ms. Maridan?”
Haifa shrugged, "She will be happier if you call her Black Boom Dragon."
"You are actually her daughter, so why didn't you choose the sledgehammer?"
"Because I My idol is the 'brave'!"
Haifaxu held the hilt of the sword behind him, "The sword is the strongest!" (End of this chapter)
