Infinite Cafetaria

Chapter 88 Looking forward

Hearing the news that the golden-spotted cheetah appeared again, all the hunters outside the city tensed up and were on guard.

 However, except for Chi Qi of the Harper Hunting Group, no one was attacked again.

However, new beasts began to surround this side again. Wei Cha and others continued to remain vigilant while retreating in an orderly manner toward the giant screen.

 “Let’s go too.” Ma Lu said.

Although the team can continue to fight and further expand the results with the massive number of blessings it currently has, his mission of hunting for 5-star ingredients has been completed, and even if he catches more prey, he cannot take it back.

And the current harvest is already astonishing enough. At times like this, it is even more important to keep a steady hand to avoid extreme joy and sorrow, not to mention that there are golden-spotted cheetahs watching eagerly.

 “Okay.” Poch had no objection.

However, the current posture of the two of them is already very difficult just to stand still, and it would be even more of a disaster to move.

Ma Lu tried to take out his left leg, but he caught up with Pochi and he also took out his left leg, so his left leg hit Pochi's right leg, tripping Pochi and almost causing the latter to fall.

In order to maintain his balance and avoid touching the water ring on his chest, Pochi subconsciously put his arm around Malu's waist.

"Feel sorry!"

 The two blurted out at the same time. Boqi withdrew his hand as quickly as possible and adjusted his breathing.

"Let's keep the same pace. I'll count one, two, three. I'll step on my right leg first, and you step on your left leg, and then alternate."

"good idea."

However, even if the order of steps is unified, because the strides of the two people are different, they still stumble when walking.

Ma Lu almost stepped on Boqi's shoes several times, and Boqi had to reach out and grab behind him again and again to maintain balance.

Just as he was about to walk to the motorcycle, Ma Lu suddenly slapped his head.

“Wait, I almost forgot, I have to take that earth dragon back. Let’s go back.”

"ah?"

“Setta alone, plus his puppets, probably can’t drag him along. We have to give him a helping hand.”

For such a long time, the traveler's bracelet failed to detect the golden-spotted cheetah, and Malu became bolder again.

However, Boqi no longer wanted to do it again. Such a short walk had already left her a bit deprived of oxygen. She had to be vigilant to guard against the attack of the golden-spotted cheetah, and she had to rub shoulders with the millipede in a small space. Rub it away...

 She was feeling dizzy now, and her enhanced reflexes felt completely useless. She had never had such a hard time dealing with that earth dragon before.

However, the prey that was finally caught cannot just be abandoned.

Earth dragons are of extraordinary value, not only for their meat, but also for their entire body. Such an earth dragon can easily be sold for more than three million kilowatt hours in the market.

 Even with the current market price, there can be 27.8 million, which is undoubtedly a huge sum of money.

"Get in the car first, and then we'll turn back." Pochi came up with a solution.

　　It wasn’t until Boqi got on the motorcycle that he felt relieved, and his heartbeat, which was so high, gradually stabilized.

The leader of the Shuangyang Flower Hunting Group did not want anyone to see his previous embarrassment, so he took the initiative to speak.

“Next time I ask you to come close to me, just come close to me. Don’t be coy. I won’t eat you.”

 “Don’t you care?”

 “Why should I care?”

Pochi asked back, raising his voice in order to cover up his guilt.

"How could I care? It's completely impossible. You can rely on me as long as you want. As the leader, I have the responsibility to protect every member. And this is...brotherhood, yes, brotherhood!"

 “Oh oh oh, but aren’t you a woman?”

"Women can't have brothers..." Pochi suddenly paused mid-sentence, and then his eyes widened, "Why do you know?!" "Uh... didn't you tell me personally outside the container that day?"

“Did you hear that?” Pochi braked suddenly, almost throwing Malu out of the back seat, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

"Ah, because you never mentioned it again, I thought you liked the way we are getting along with each other now."

“Since you know everything, you just kept sticking it to me?!” Pochi’s face turned red.

"That...didn't you ask me to post it?" Ma Lu said cautiously.

　　　…”

The three members of the Shuangyanghua Hunting Group worked together to drag the earth dragon back to the city. Together with the imperial red-backed scorpion and other miscellaneous things, the harvest this time exceeded everyone's expectations!

Even attracted many traders to go directly to the city gate to wait for purchases.

However, Pochi did not immediately negotiate the price with the traders. After saying hello, he walked in the direction of the Harper hunting group.

After Chi Qi was injured, Guli did not abandon him. Instead, he risked being attacked by a golden-spotted cheetah and carried him back. However, the medical team responsible for emergency rescue at the edge of the city waved away the other members of the Harpers after inspection. shook his head.

 “Inform his family.”

The male doctor didn't even use a stethoscope, he just opened Chi Qi's eyelids to check, then looked at the wound on his neck and announced this.

 At Chi Qi's neck, there were two blood holes as thick as three fingers. It looked like they were left by the teeth of some kind of beast, which almost bit his throat.

 Gulli's face looked ugly.

Pochi could understand his reluctance. The Harper's current situation was very bad, and his appeal to top hunters had been declining. It took a lot of effort to find a good seedling, but he died like this before he could make a name for himself.

 “Sorrow.”

"It's my fault, I shouldn't have accepted this commission." Guli murmured, "Our strength is not as good as other hunting groups, and we are simply not enough to deal with the attack of the golden-spotted cheetah, and I should also know that in the future Chi Qi’s character won’t listen to me honestly.”

At that time, everyone in the Harpers had been outside the city for a while and gradually relaxed their vigilance. Moreover, everyone was attracted by the battle between the Shuangyang Flower Hunting Group and the Earth Dragon. Chi Qi was no exception and did not continue to manipulate the wind and sand to provide the team with cover.

 In the end, because of such a small mistake, he lost his life, and Boqi didn't know what to say.

Her relationship with Chi Qi has never been very good, not to mention that the latter hired black hands to kill the Shuangyang Flower Hunting Group.

She originally wanted to talk to Chi Qi privately in the next two days, but she didn't know what the final result would be. To be honest, Chi Qi's death helped her solve a lot of troubles.

It's just a pity for Guli, the future of the Harpers he had high hopes for is gone. Such a blow will probably make the hunting group's current situation even worse.

Poqi sighed and said to Guli, "Have you ever thought of simply disbanding the hunting group? With your strength, Uncle Guli, no hunting group should be able to refuse you."

"What are you talking about? Dismissing the Harpers, no, impossible, absolutely impossible." Guli refused without thinking.

"This is the hunting group left by your father. As his successor, I have the responsibility to protect it. Unless I die, the Harper will continue to exist even if there is only one person left."

"Okay, pretend I didn't say it." Pochi could only swallow the next words back in his stomach.

She didn’t speak Guli but she had something to say.

"you've changed."

The leader of the Harper Hunting Group looked into the girl’s eyes and said.

“No, the powerful forces you see do not really belong to me.” Poch shook his head.

"I'm not talking about your strength. Of course, your strength has also improved a lot. You are now an outstanding hunter that your father can be proud of. He would be very happy if he were still alive."

"Maybe."

"But you have changed. In the past, you cherished what he left the most and would never have said such words as disbanding the Harpers." Guli seemed a little confused, "What exactly changed you?"

“I don’t know,” Poch said. “Maybe I just suddenly realized that the past is gone. No matter how hard we try, it will never come back, so it’s time to move forward.”

　　　Go back to reality tomorrow~ This time the plot of the alien world is relatively long, and there is a lot to explain, so I have tried to compress it as much as possible.
