hunt and eat

For the topic of growing taller, Nia never tires of it from beginning to end.

Although in fact, what really needs attention on this topic is the extinction of the 1.6-meter standard height that has been maintained since a few years ago.

"I remember I said that it is the ability obtained from the stockade crab."

Guta scratched his head speechlessly and said.

【The Body of the Ancient】

[As the age and combat experience increase, the owner's size, strength, defense, true energy (limited to humans), and dragon power (limited to dragon blood) will all increase significantly.

After the battle with Fierce Demon, the skill level of Guta's ability has been raised to LV28.

After completing the two tasks of the tiger shark removal plan and the capture of the female charmander (because once and for all, the problem of the elderly individuals of the female charmander was fundamentally solved, Hawke made an exception and stamped a final chapter on the task list), Guta His [Ancient Body's Shell] ability also came to LV29 smoothly.

Of course, because of the characteristic that the ability will be greatly improved every 5 levels, the ancient tower is still two meters away.

until last night...

Just after midnight, accompanied by the sound of clothes shattering, Guta was shocked to find that he had jumped more than ten centimeters in one breath.

There is no need to be suspicious at all, Guta directly looked at the ability of [Ancient Man's Body] on his status bar.

Sure enough, it has quietly arrived at LV30.

But... why?

If calculated according to combat experience, I have just been promoted to LV29, so logically speaking, there is still a long way to go before LV30.

There is only one possibility.

It's all because of my age!

If I guess correctly, today... no, maybe it should be yesterday, it should be my birthday.

And immediately after his birthday, the ability of [Ancient Man's Shell] was forcibly upgraded by one level because Guta was one year older.

It's a little too rigid, but that's a good thing.

This means that even if you don't do anything and just lie down and be a salted fish every day, as long as you live long enough, the ability of [the body of the ancient] will also actively improve itself as you grow older .

And with my dragon-man physique, I'm afraid it's no problem to live for hundreds of years, and I'm afraid I won't be regarded as a dragon-man like the great elder by then~

Guta thought so happily.

By the way, after reaching LV40, the Dragon Devouring Power of the ancient tower was also raised to LV5, unlocking a new strengthening part [Void Bag].

It sounds a bit mysterious, but in fact, the stomach pouch has been strengthened, and it has an almost terrifying digestion ability.

In theory, it is already possible to eat infinitely.

Cooperating with the gluttonous body of the ancient tower itself, it is equivalent to being able to completely repair one's own injuries by eating crazily.

I don't know whether the stomach of the ancient tower is connected to the void as the name says, or whether the gastric juice has been strengthened to the point that it can corrode everything.

If it's the latter, maybe I should torture myself and make some strong acid, maybe it can be of great use when hunting?

"Think about it again, did you really not eat anything special?"

Nia was persuasively persuasive... No, this can no longer be called persuasion, this is simply fabricating the non-existence of memory.

"..."

To be honest, Guta has never been able to understand Nia's inexplicable obsession with height.

This year, she is a little smaller than herself when she just turned fourteen, and her height is almost 1.7 meters.

You must know that when she first came to the mainland, Nia was only a little over 1.6 meters, which is considered to be growing very fast.

But everyone has different ideas, which is actually quite normal, and Guta is willing to respect her ideas most of the time.

Correspondingly, at some point, Guta also hopes that Nia can respect her own ideas, such as not wanting to write witness reports, not wanting to do boring daily tasks, and so on.

After all, respect is mutual~

Chapter 92 The Ancient Dragon Tower and Kanban Girls Extinct

"Hawk, is there any mission that is closer?"

In the quest hall of the Dede Village Guild, Guta sat on the bar and quickly flipped through the thick quest list on the table.

The number and strength of hunters in Dede Village are very limited, so there will be a backlog of difficult tasks every year.

He casually flipped through a task list for crusade against the "Snow Lion Golden Mutant". For some reason, the crisis alert in the ancient tower was immediately full, so he resolutely put the list aside.

It’s better to believe in intuition than to believe in nothing.

After experiencing so many things, it is difficult for Guta to think about it carelessly.

"It's closer..."

Hawke glanced strangely, even if it was an ancient tower that was about as tall as him when he was sitting.

"By the way, I've wanted to ask since you came in, what kind of abnormal development is this?"

If I remember correctly, Guta and the others came to Dede Village, and it took only a month to do all the calculations, but this guy quietly grew more than ten centimeters?

"You are not a new generation of dragon people, are you? There has always been a saying in the guild that the elder's lifespan is nearing the end of his life."

According to the saying that has been circulated among the dragon people, the dragon people will appear regularly every thousand years, possessing wisdom, strength, lifespan and body shape far beyond ordinary people's imagination, and they are the only humanoid race with the highest combat ability comparable to the ancient dragon in the true sense. force.

If the Great Elder is really a thousand years old, then the ancient pagoda in front of him may really be...

"What are you thinking, have you ever seen a dragonman awakened the day after tomorrow?"

Guta was well aware of his situation, so he just found an excuse and evaded it.

"These missions are either in the southernmost part of the desert, or near the woodland a few hundred kilometers away. It will take four or five days just to travel, and the intelligence has been cut off for several years. The ghost knows if the mission target is still there."

"Normal, normal, don't even think about it, can the tasks that are easy to do be backlogged up to now?"

Hawke laughed, thought for a while, and pulled out a new task list from the audience.

"Yesterday, I received a new commission from the headquarters."

After a pause, Hawke continued: "For some unknown reasons, several Zhanlongs on the edge of the desert have recently begun to escape from their habitat spontaneously... Among them is a relatively strong individual that was spotted a while ago. In the Canyon of Wind's Breath, if you find it, you can hunt it down."

"This kind of individual far away from the original territory has caused too serious damage to the local ecology."

Hearing this, Guta suddenly got a little excited.

Zhanlong is one of the few powerful monsters who specialize in "sword skills" and "sword casting". For the ancient tower who has just obtained the ability of [Wu double blade], it is the most suitable opponent.

"Nia, this is it."

Guta turned his head to look at Nia beside him.

After thinking about it for a while, Niya looked at Guta, who was obviously much stronger due to the skyrocketing height, and then looked at several members of the team, and finally nodded in agreement.

Nia herself has estimated that the current overall strength of the team is probably between three stars and four stars (regular teams, excluding hunting groups), of which the strength of Guta accounts for nearly [-]% of the overall strength, and Extermination accounts for [-]%. She and Weiwei accounted for the remaining [-]%.

There is no way, Nia and Weiwei have no awakening energy, and the existing long-range weapons are indeed a bit weak when dealing with high-level monsters, so that the two of them have been in an awkward position.

At present, there are three feasible solutions. One is to awaken the energy of two people, the other is to make breakthroughs and innovations in weapons, and the third is to master more powerful long-distance hunting skills.

It seems that there are many methods, but the difficulty is self-evident.

"It's too late today, let's go tomorrow."

Nia said softly, and then handed the task list to Hawk.

Being idle and bored, Nia casually looked at the interior decoration of the guild, her eyes inadvertently flicked across the light crossbow hanging on the wall.

Wait, she remembered that Hawke used to be a very powerful light crossbow hunter, and even reached the G position at one point.

Even if the infuriating energy can no longer be used, the skill of using the crossbow gun is impossible, right?

Thinking of this, Nia looked at Hawke who lowered his head to record the situation of the task acceptance. The scorching eyes made Hawke shudder suddenly.

"What's wrong?"

Hawk raised his head suspiciously, looking at the little girl in front of him.

To be honest, the sight just now reminded him of Valentina inexplicably.

"Well, President Hawke, can you teach us how to use crossbow guns?"

Hawke couldn't help being taken aback by Nia's words.

Then he touched his big bald head unnaturally, and pointed at himself uncertainly.

"Are you sure you're asking me?"

Since Guta easily overturned the one-horned dragon that made him overturn, Hawke has been in this state of not being confident in the face of this group of children who are not half his age.

"I heard from Sister Valentina that you were also a G-hunter before. If you can, please guide us."

Nia said seriously.

Frowning slightly, a look of excitement appeared on Hawke's face for an instant.

"Ahem, I should. As a senior, it is my duty to give advice to the younger generation."

"I do have some experience in the use of crossbow guns. It is better to hit the sun than choose a date. Let's go to the training ground to practice now. During the time you are in Dede Village, I will try my best to give all I know to you. you."

"Then I will trouble you." Nia bowed politely.

"No problem, no problem."

After speaking, Hawke walked out from behind the bar, reached out to take down the light crossbow on the wall, nodded with Nia and the others, and walked out with the gun in hand.

"Weiwei, let's go, Guta and Miejin help to look after the guild, please!"

While pulling Weiwei with a reluctant face, Nia made a please gesture to Guta and Miejin, and hurriedly followed Hawke.

"Eh~"

Weiwei, who was determined to improve her combat power by modifying weapons like Noxie, was dragged out of the door.

"Come on, fucker!"

Guta waved his hands, then yawned and lay down on the counter.

The wooden table case is surprisingly comfortable to lie down on.

The upper and lower eyelids were fighting fiercely, and Guta tried his best to resist the surging sleepiness.

But unfortunately, he was defeated in the end.

The moment his eyelids closed, Guta tilted his head, leaned against the bar and fell asleep.

"..."

Mie Jue, who was at the side, sighed silently, and then carefully walked around the ancient tower and sat down behind the bar seriously.

Soon, some hunters walked into the guild talking and laughing.

"Hawk, what are you doing today..."

Everyone was taken aback when they saw the black-haired girl sitting quietly behind the counter.

Immediately afterwards, almost everyone rubbed their eyes spontaneously.

"Fuck...Look, Kanban girl!?"

"Hello, is there anything I can do for you?"

Mie Jin said with a deadpan expression on his face, almost in a voice that was almost sticky.

No way, she was a little nervous doing this for the first time.

Not caring about her indifferent attitude at all, all the hunters cheered in unison, and what's more, they rushed out of the door and went straight to the tavern not far away.

So, only three or ten minutes later, the hunters who were deceived by false rumors such as "Hawk recruited the Kanban lady" and "The Kanban lady is a cute loli" surrounded the small guild with water.

Chapter 93 Roasted Knuckles with Tusalong Sauce and Big Bone with Qianrenlong Collagen

Three hours later, Hawke, who got the news, hurried back to the guild.

After explaining the specific situation, the hunters dispersed with a "cut" sound, and the guild suddenly became deserted.
