Brave the world of monster hunting with a pokeball

Chapter 46
Determined to capture the monster, the next step is to determine the relevant information.

Li Fan came to the Kara Village Chamber of Commerce and inquired about the material market of the Peach Hair Beast King.

The result was about the same as he expected, because the negative impact was too overwhelming, the material of Peach Hair Beastmaster was not only cheap, but also out of stock.

When it was used in the manufacture of weapons many years ago, there were still some markets, but now it is rarely seen regardless of the supply and demand ends.

Li Fan feels that the material of a type of monster is almost extinct, but it does not mean that there is absolutely no hunter team to hunt.

But due to the consideration of transportation costs, they are not willing to bring their corpses back to the surrounding villages and towns for material disassembly.

As for the task contract, there was definitely no sign on the notice board, so Li Fan went straight to the trade union counter.

"Peach Hair Beast King!"

After hearing Li Fan's request, Xilin opened her mouth into an O-shape and froze for a moment.

"Yes."

"Have you eaten brightly colored mushrooms lately?"

"No, go find it in the backlog of contracts."

"Ok."

After Shirene finished speaking, she opened the contract filing cabinet under the counter, and moved out piles of documents.

"Well, Peach Hair Beastmaster rarely appears around the villages and towns. As for its circulation contract, I think there is only one. Ah! I found it!"

As Shirene said, she pulled out a withered and yellow contract document.

"This contract was issued two years ago, but because there is no time limit, and the client has already paid the full remuneration to the union in advance, it is theoretically acceptable."

"Theoretically?"

"Yes, because this contract has been released for too long, and the client's hunting target is a designated individual, plus the distance is far away, and the branch has no way to confirm the current situation of this peach-haired beast king, it may happen that the mission target cannot be achieved Case."

Shireen said.

That's right, it's been two years since the mission was released, and what the client wants to hunt is the peach-haired beast king that fits the description.

If the peach-haired beast king migrates or dies during this period, even if it reaches the designated location, the mission is doomed to fail.

"Shirin, what is the union's suggestion in this situation?"

"Don't accept this kind of contract. If you insist, you can choose to go to the branch or field stronghold closest to the hunting area to obtain the latest information."

Shireen told.

It turns out that even if the recent situation of a peach-haired beast king is detected by field investigators, it will certainly not be passed back and forth between the union branches to update the information in time.

Then, if you want to obtain the latest information, you must go to the nearest stronghold or branch.

Li Fan pondered for a moment and asked, "Where is the mission calibration location?"

Shirin took two steps back, and after searching for a while on the giant map posted on the wall inside the counter, she pressed her finger on an area surrounded by forests.

"The mission location is in the dense forest, probably at this location. The nearest hunter guild branch is located in Pokai Village, but there is a guild field stronghold over there, which is built together with the port. You can confirm the target Peach Hair Beast King without going to the branch. Recently, at this time of year, the stronghold should still be open."

It seems that due to the long distance, some of the information that Shirin has grasped is also lagging behind.

But even if the target individual in the contract cannot be found, according to the records in the ecological classics, the dense forest is also the main habitat of the peach-haired beast king.

Moreover, the field stronghold can also issue mission contracts. Assuming that this contract cannot be fulfilled, there may be other contracts in the local area to crusade against the peach-haired beast king.

After all, that side is closer to the habitat.

Of course, this possibility is very small, because if this kind of contract is really in demand, it is impossible to transfer it all the way to the Kara Village branch after such a long distance.

"I took it."

Li Fan said with certainty.

"No, this is also accepted"

Shireen was surprised.

This contract requires a long distance to travel and the degree of danger, which is obviously not proportional to the reward.

"I went to the dense forest a long time ago, and I want to go back and see it again."

"Okay, um. Since you've already gone to the dense forest, why don't I give you a contract for collecting crab roe."

Shireen suggested.

"Is it difficult?"

"It's not high at all, you know the small shield crab. It is said that there are everywhere in the dense forest. After killing it, you can pry open the shell and collect the crab roe inside. And because it is a collection contract, there is no quantity limit, and there is no burden at all." .”

Shireen said.

"Won't the crab roe go bad during the round trip, plus the time spent hunting the peach-haired beast king?"

Li Fan asked tentatively.

"Don't worry, there are generally frozen warehouses in ports and transport ships, and you can store them for a small fee, and you can get a discount by showing the hunter badge."

Shireen told.

"Okay, make one."

"Then wait a moment."

After Xilin finished speaking, she painted a layer of wax on the contract to hunt the Peach-haired Beast King, probably because she was afraid that this vicissitudes of life contract might be broken into pieces of paper.

"Okay, when are you leaving? I can go to the pier to see you off when I'm free."

Shirin said and gave two contracts.

"There is still some preparatory work to be done, and it will take three days at the earliest."

Li Fan said uncertainly.

"Then let's talk about it then."

After bidding farewell to Xilin, Li Fan walked out of the trade union hall, holding two contracts and looking at them as he walked.

"Hunting the Peach-haired Beast King, a three-star mission, the client, an old fisherman who did not want to be named, described, I was drying a fishing net on the shore at the time, and I felt something approaching. I turned my head and heard a whoosh, bang! An unknown lump The object was stuck on the face. This should indeed be punished."

Li Fan wanted to eat more for dinner so that he could do strength training, so he turned his attention to the rewards column.

The 10020z remuneration plus the 5600z travel subsidy is not much.

As for the individual characteristics, the most obvious basis for identifying this peach-haired beast king is that one nostril is large and the other is small.

The local trade union branch that issued the contract, according to the client's description and the investigator's on-site confirmation.

The judgment given two years ago was that this was not due to individual differences in monsters, but was caused by injuries.

The faded individual depiction of the peach-haired beast king in the center of the contract is also emphatically reflected in this point.

Li Fan's gaze sank when he saw this.

According to the lively and restless personality of the Tao Mao Beastmaster, it is not surprising that he will attack humans.

But there are more serious injuries on the body, which means that it is definitely not the more appropriate term for ordinary people to call it a plain monster.

Moreover, this contract is still in the state of two years ago. If this peach-haired beast king is not dead, who knows how advanced its understanding of combat has been.

Li Fan felt a little pressure.

But thinking of his monster team, he quickly gained confidence again.

After returning to the wooden house, Dilu washed the mud and cooked with Yudora by the campfire outside the house.

Li Fan thought that everyone still had to eat, so he didn't mention the matter of accepting the contract. He didn't announce it until after dinner.

"Peach Hair Beast King!"

Yudora opened her mouth into an O shape, and was stunned for a moment.

"Have you guys trained in a unified way, why do you always have this expression?"

Li Fan said helplessly.

"It's terrible meow."

Dilu trembled slightly.

"The three-star monster isn't that scary, it's just that the road is a bit far away."

No matter what Di Lu said, he also faced the hunting cat of Paohulong directly. Li Fan felt that this reaction was a bit exaggerated.

"Uh, uh. I heard that Peach Hair Beast King would wipe his ass with Elu cat, so I was scared meow."

Dilu explained.

"I won't give the other party a chance. I feel that as long as there is no accident, Puff will attack in four or five rounds, and Peach Hair Beast King will be able to succumb."

Li Fan speculated.

"Li Fan, I really want to go hunting with you, but the investigation agency is expanding recently, and there must be a person to stay for docking."

Eudora said seriously.

Li Fan looked at Di Lu, and Di Lu hurriedly looked away to caress Sunny Tian who had fallen asleep.

"You two, don't be so negative, okay, it's just a peach-haired beast king. We will definitely defeat it easily if we work together."

Li Fan persuaded and explained.

"Well, who told you that you are my partner."

Eudora covered her face in melancholy.

Knowing that she couldn't escape, Di Lu tentatively asked, "Can I take Sunny with me, meow?"

"It's not good. Go to the dense forest now on a sunny day. It's a pork-flavored portable food. Once captured by wild monsters, we have no chance to save it."

Li Fan analyzed.

"Okay meow! Since you are a hunting cat, you have to adapt to more harsh environments in order to grow!"

Di Lu quickly regained her confidence, turned around and ran into the cabin to prepare.

"Why do you have to capture the peach-haired beast king?"

Eudora asked puzzled.

"Because no matter who it is, they want to keep a distance from the peach-haired beast king."

Li Fan gave the answer.

The next day, the two of them and the cat actively made preparations for this long hunting trip.

The dense forest is humid and there are too many rainy days.

Eudora decided to purchase a set of portable tents that were sufficiently waterproof.

Dilu came to the village cat hunting academy, rented relevant books, and learned about the habits of the peach-haired beast king, so as to learn more tracking methods.

Li Fan crushed Luoyang grass into powder in the log cabin, added enough to the material jade, and blended it to make deodorant balls.

The two and one cat had been busy for a day, and they reported their progress when they got together for dinner.

After an analysis, there were not many obstacles in the preparation.

The most worrying thing is the strange environment in the dense forest area.

As for the ecology of the dense forest, Dilu is only active around Kara Village, so it is naturally unclear.

Although Eudora was a lone hunter before, she had never visited.

Li Fan has been there, but it was in the game.

"It's better to collect crab roe to familiarize yourself with the environment after arriving. I also accepted a collection contract at the same time."

Li Fan made a proposal.

"If we start with food first, I agree. Otherwise, once the food is eaten, there will be no follow-up food sources, and even if we are in a wild camp, we will not be able to guarantee hunting activities."

Eudora agrees.

Overeating is an undisputed advantage in increasing physical strength.

However, when camping and hunting in the wild and unable to carry too much food, it is very easy to cause troubles for the hunter team.

Therefore, sufficient food security has always been the first consideration for whether the hunter team can be stationed in the wild.

If there is no guarantee in terms of food, it can only be replenished in the union field strongholds and hunting areas.

Not only does it take a lot of time, but the status of the team hunters is also difficult to guarantee.

In preparation for the trip, time flies by.

When it came time to deliver the weapons and armor, Li Fan took the contract and came to the blacksmith shop early in the morning.

After confirming the delivery with the boss, Li Fan got the first set of armor that can stimulate the monster's ability.

After wearing it, the boss carried out the final beating and fine-tuning with a hammer to fit Li Fan's figure better.

"Young man, why do you feel that you are much stronger than before?"

While busy, the boss asked a little unexpectedly.

"I've been doing strength training lately."

Li Fan, who was standing still with open arms, responded.

"Okay, let's move the joints and roll over in place a few times to see if there is any stuck place."

After the boss told him, Li Fan tried it.

The first feeling is that it is heavy, and it is a little stiff when performing movements, but it is still within an acceptable range.

The second feeling is that there seems to be a lot of subconsciousness buried in the body corresponding to the armor, and there is a faint feeling that it is ready to come out.

"Boss, the knee joint of my left leg is a bit stiff."

Li Fan found the problem after bending his knees several times.

"This... I'm going to get the saw blade, you wait a moment."

"Ok."

Li Fan also did not expect that the maintenance method of armor was so simple.

creak!creak!creak! .
The boss saw sharply on the leggings of the Sleeping Dog Dragon. After cutting off a little material, he observed for a while, stood up and nodded in satisfaction.

"You try again."

Li Fan bent his knees again, and found that the blocking feeling in his legs was gone, and the creaking scratching sound also disappeared.

"Haha, I'm still satisfied."

The boss smiled happily.

"Um"

This is the only blacksmith shop in Kara Village, and the armor is also handcrafted, and Li Fan can understand some minor flaws.

The next step is to deliver Jawblade Brax upgraded from Jawblade [-].

From the appearance point of view, the Jawblade Brax has not changed much.

The gray bone blade is thicker, and the blade is flatter and sharper.

In terms of visual inspection and appreciation of weapons, Li Fan's accumulation is zero.

But he knew that this knife didn't have a green chopping taste in terms of sharpness, so he didn't have too many extravagant expectations.

I waved it twice to confirm that the strength is no problem, and then the delivery was completed.

Before leaving, the boss also sent two whetstones and a small bottle of foaming fluid, which he said was used to maintain weapons and clean armor.

In the afternoon, Taimei dragged the small truck to the pier in the south of the village.

The team didn't plan to set off in a hurry, but the transport ships passing by Kara Village didn't come every day.

If this class can't catch up, the next one may have to wait a few days later.

Passing through the wharf crowded with hunters, the accompanying supplies were loaded into the warehouse, and the villagers who were watching eagerly on the shore waved goodbye to the transport ship.

"Di Lu is there meow!"

A black and white Elu cat stretched out its claws to give guidance, and more than a dozen Elu cats flocked to the shore together.

"Come on! Dilu Meow!"

"Conquer the jungle cat!"

"Give Peach Hair Beast King some color, meow!"

The sound of cheering and cheering came one after another.

This trip departed from the pier of Kara Village. After arriving in East Doruma, it was necessary to transfer to a larger transport ship to reach the dense forest port.

Without encountering accidents and extreme weather, the voyage was blocked, and the whole journey took about eight days.
