Hunter: Start with a prison

Hunter Calendar December 1998

The garrison point of Tomi Forest Army.

"You two are worthy of being forest hunters. After entering Tomi Forest for three months, they only killed a few large ferocious beasts."

The officer looked at the man and woman in front of him. He didn't expect that the huge forest would allow these two to meet together.

This man and woman were Li En and Menqi who had stayed in Tommy's Forest for more than three months.

After Menqi got drunk that night, the relationship between Lean and Menqi became more harmonious.

After burning the strange plants and artery fruits planted by the monsters, Rean and Menqi began hunting in Tomi's Forest.

Regarding the Artery Fruit, Lien and Menqi suspected that the real role of this fruit for the Warcraft clan was to propagate the race.

As for Lien's other guess, he did not inform Menqi. He suspected that the ancestors of this ethnic group came from the Dark Continent.

In order to ensure the reproduction of the race, the ancestors of the Warcraft clan transplanted the Artery Fruit to Lake Mobius.

As for the weird-looking red fruit, in Lien's opinion, it may be the product of secondary development of the Warcraft clan because the artery fruit is too difficult to cultivate.

After burning everything about the Warcraft, Rean put the nugget and other valuable items into the storage room, and the two began their exploration journey in the forest.

It has to be said that Lien feels that as a gourmet hunter, Menqi's craftsmanship is truly unique. The delicacies she makes are entirely based on her telekinesis ability, which can be said to be a feast for Lien.

Looking at the officer who estimated the value of the beasts' corpses, Lien stepped forward and said, "We don't plan to take these beasts back, we'll leave them with you!"

"Really?"

Hearing Lien's words, the officer's eyes lit up and he confirmed again.

"Of course it's true. The original purpose of our trip was to investigate the forest ecology. If these ferocious beasts hadn't attacked us, we would never have killed them."

Menqi replied to the officer in a positive tone, as if he were a very dedicated forest hunter.

"Okay! I'll stop being disrespectful. You are welcome to come to Tommy's Forest for investigation next time."

The officer nodded to the two of them in a very friendly manner.

"Let go!"

The officer conveyed the order, and Lien and Menqi picked up the backpacks on the ground and walked out of the stronghold.

The two walked forward for a while, and Rean took out the cell phone that had been turned off from the storage room.

After checking the cell phone signal, a call was made.

"Hello! Mr. Lean, have you come out of Tommy's Forest?" Basso's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yes, Mr. Basso, I am with a companion and I need you to take us out of the country."

Hearing Basuo's voice again, Lien felt like he was suddenly separated from another world. Even he didn't expect that this trip would take more than three months.

Basso replied: "Can Mr. Lean go to the place where you disembarked last time? I will send someone to pick you up."

"can."

The two hung up the phone after the exchange. Basso could not come in person this time because he had other tasks, but he promised that he would arrange for someone to take Lien out of the country.

After all, it is difficult to enter the NGL autonomous country, but it is not too complicated to get out, as long as you do not bring contraband.

"Let's go, Menqi."

"Ok!"

Menqi agreed and followed Li En towards the place where Li En got off the boat.

I took a look at the missed calls on my phone. There were calls from Yungu, Bisji, and Jin. The most numerous ones were from Ford.

Without any hesitation, Lean directly responded to Ford's call. After all, he had agreed with Ford that it was just a trip, but he didn't expect that nearly half a year had passed.

"Mr. Lean, where have you been during this time? I thought something happened to you."

The moment the call was connected, Ford's excited voice came over the phone.

Lean gave a helpless smile. Ford was right. He did encounter many things, but these things were obviously not suitable to be told to Ford.

He simply informed Ford that he was safe and explained that he would return to the company to find him after a while, which made Ford feel at ease.

"By the way, you told me before to collect information about the Collier family. I have already collected it. You can read it when you come back."

After listening to Ford's words, Lean simply replied and hung up the phone.

After taking a look at the remaining missed calls, Lien called Bisgi this time. Unexpectedly, Bisgi's phone turned off.

Lien, who eliminated Bisgi as an option, called Yun Gu directly.

This time the call was answered decisively, and Yun Gu told Lean that the hunter exam was about to start, and asked Lean not to forget to sign up. President Nitro specifically asked Lean to take this exam.

After telling Yun Gu about Bisji's inability to contact him, Lien realized that what Bisji wanted to say and what Yun Gu told him were the same thing.

After ending the call with Yun Gu, Li En called Jin this time, but the line on the other side of the phone was always busy.

Li En knew without thinking that this guy Jin must be dealing with something. All he had to do was wait for his call. After all, this guy was the type who would go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing.

Seeing Li En finish the phone call, Menqi joked: "It seems you have a lot of friends!"

Hearing this, Lien shrugged helplessly and said: "Except for a few people, they are all guys who love to cause trouble."

"I'm going back to the Sky Arena, what about you? Where are you going?"

Looking at Menqi walking beside him, Li En felt a little reluctant to leave for some reason.

Menqi thought for a moment and said slowly: "I'm going to the Hunter Association. I harvested a lot of unexplored ingredients this time. I need to report my merits."

"Okay, if you have any questions, call me."

Lien agreed, knowing that this separation was already doomed from the moment he left Tommy's Forest.

As if sensing Li En's mood, Menqi comforted him: "Don't worry, I will come to you when I'm bored."

The two walked and chatted, seeming to cherish the time before they parted.

When the two of them walked to the river, the yacht that Lien took last time was already waiting there.

After the staff on the yacht confirmed their identities, they respectfully invited them onto the yacht.

However, when leading the two of them into their respective rooms, Menqi chose to stay in the same room as Li En. Naturally, his purpose was not revealed.

Unfortunately, happy times are always short-lived. After a period of sailing, the two of them arrived at the airship airport of the NGL Autonomous Country under the guidance of Basso's people.

After buying a ticket to the Republic of Bartokia, Lien couldn't help but sigh. The ticket price was still as expensive as chartering an airship.

Waving goodbye to Menqi, each of them boarded the airship flying to the two destinations with a parting mood.
