Evolution Theory of the Hunter Chapter 116

Chapter 116

“Why did you take that out?”

Soo-ah who was following me around saw the ring . If there was a speaking tournament that only used expressions then this girl would win no doubt .

“I’m not giving it to you . Also, you know what this is . ”

“I wasn’t expecting it you know . You didn’t take it out for a while . I asked because I’m curious . ”

“The forest region is pretty large . Until now Edward or Park Han-b.u.m did the recon but it’s more dangerous than the wetlands region so I thought it would be more convenient to use monsters . ”

“But don’t you need to feed it items to use it?”

“Yeah . That’s why I’m going to get everyone’s acceptance . ”

Even if I was the party leader, I couldn’t do everything as I wanted .

There probably wouldn’t be anyone who disagrees with my decision but if I didn’t at least go through the process of asking their opinion the chemistry between the members might take a blow .

“You could just do it . Even if you don’t ask n.o.body would disagree . ”

“I still need to ask . ”

“Do as you want . ”

While I was talking with Soo-ah everyone had gathered .

Once I gave a simple explanation about how I wanted to create a recon unit using the ring they all nodded at my opinion .

Han Joon-suk opened his mouth first . Truthfully, he was the person that gave the opinions that mattered most after myself .

“As long as it’s for the team if it’s party leader’s opinion, then I have no intention of disagreeing to it . In the future too . ”

“Me too . I know what party leader is concerned about but I don’t think you need to ask us every single time like this . ”

“Don’t ask these kinds of bothersome questions and tell us after doing it . There’s no one here that doesn’t trust you anyway . ”

Yeon-gyeong and even Manager Kim followed up with an approval . The others didn’t have opinions that differed much .

Han Joon-suk opened his mouth once more .

“Manager Kim does have a point . Since party leader has a leading role in almost everything I believe it is fine for you to abuse your power and feely decide on matters . ”

“See . I was right . ”

Soo-ah poked me in the waist . I already knew how much these people trusted me . Although I still thought Manager Kim would grumble a bit .

Either way, since we were talking about it and all I decided to summon right away . The party members crowded around me and sat down saying a few more words .

“If its for recon then flying monsters are the best . I recommend the Red Bald Eagle . ”

“A flying type is good too but I think the Million Worm that moves around in the ground is good too . It’s also good at surprise attacks . ”

“Better, how about something you can ride? Agentaya Mongol Horse you know . Wouldn’t it be nice cause you can ride it as well? It has good attack power too . It would nice if I could ride it with senior brother ah…… . ”

“I, I agree . ”

Their individual preference is coming out . I was going to make quite a few anyway so I tried making them all .

“…… Senior brother . ”

“Why?”

“Isn’t this over doing it?”

“That’s why I got your agreement . ”

I had a proud smile as I looked at the monsters lined up in front of me .

A total of thirty monsters were looking at me with s.h.i.+ning eyes .

If they were enemies then each one would be horrific things but since they were like this they felt rather cute .

For now, 10 Red Bald Eagles . 20 Agentaya Mongol Horses . I also made 5 Million Worms .

The Million Worms were looking at me while only having their head popping out of the ground . They had a sharp jaw bone and compound eyes like insects .

Underground organisms usually had degenerated eyes but as expected of monsters, they had excellent eyesight as well .

“You used up all the items we got in the last 2 weeks yes?”

“Yep . ”

“Looks like we will be poor this entire expedition . ”

“Fight me if you have a complaint . ”

“I’m good . ”

Soo-ah let out a sigh . She did so, but it wasn’t like she was actually thinking that I was pathetic .

Either way, the summoned monsters were loyal servants and could be thought of as an investment .

Han Joon-suk also seemed to think it was amazing as he approached a Million Worm and put a hand on its think body .

The Million Worm’s body length alone was 10 meters while it had a diameter of 1 meter or so .

As level 3 monsters unlike the other two level 2s, the ‘Milworm’ were quite powerful .

They would probably be able to chew and eat a tram .

“It’s my first time even seeing a living Milworm but to even be able to touch it first hand…… . ”

“You have peculiar tastes . ”

At my words, Han Joon-suk shrugged .

Hunters usually didn’t like underground insect type monsters .

There was also the fact that they were difficult to kill but it was usually because of the disgust they felt from them being insects .

“Heave ho!”

Soo-ah went to the Agentaya Mongol Horse with Yeon-gyeong .

The horses had saddles equipped from the beginning .

It was like it was an organism that told humans to ride it .

However, you usually got bitten to death before getting close to it, died by getting stabbed with the horn, or died by getting kicked with the back legs .

However, you usually got bitten to death before getting close to it, died by getting stabbed with the horn, or died by getting kicked with the back legs .

“Ohh, this is really high . ”

“That’s because it’s over 2 meters high . ”

I said . Soo-ah was agile and able to fly in the sky so she probably wouldn’t have any problems riding it . It will probably be hard to Yeon-gyeong though .

“It will stay still right?”

“It at least follows my orders but…… I don’t know . I have no idea how it thinks of you . ”

“We’ll know once we get up on it . Well . ”

Once Soo-ah jumped up on the black horse that was at the front, it turned its head to look at her .

*horse noise*

“Ohh, yes yes . I’m your new owner . ”

“You know how to ride a horse?”

“There was luckily a horse riding facility near my neighborhood . ”

“What in the world did you not do?”

“Studying . ”

“…… Yeah . I asked something pointless . ”

A sigh came out involuntarily . Yeon-gyeong raised her hand and hopped .

“Elder sister! Me too!”

“I’ll help you . ”

“Ah?”

Heave ho .

I lightly held Yeon-gyeong’s waist and held her up .

The Mongol horse was so large that the saddle still had s.p.a.ce left over while Soo-ah and Yeon-gyeong were riding it .

I think it’s fine to think of it as being two times bigger than a normal horse .

There were ten red eagles flying in the sky .

I was going to leave recon to these guys normally .

They understood words when spoken like Kelby .

The eagles flew around the area and scouted for monsters . We left the remaining monsters at the base camp in case an ambush happened .

Even with just this the safety was much more rea.s.suring . I should have summoned them earlier .

Soo-ah and Yeon-gyeong were going around the lake again and again .

Putting Yeon-gyeong in the front and riding while holding the reins looked like a scene out of a movie .

Maybe because Soo-ah had a large build they actually looked like a couple .

Maybe because Soo-ah had a large build they actually looked like a couple .

“They look good together . ”

“Tell me about it . ”

Han Joon-suk and I let out a laugh . We were playing like that when Edward who couldn’t be seen all day appeared from far away .

He was flying above the clouds but he had changed into a shadow .

The crowd of bats hurriedly flew towards me and regained their original form .

“Where did you go to only come now? Quite a bit of time has pa.s.sed since the sun went down . ”

“I found something interesting . ”

“Something interesting?”

“A relic . It seems to be an ancient object . ”

A relic……?

Relics were usually traces of civilization . As I had never thought that there would have been a civilization at the Yellow Sea I was a bit taken aback .

Of course, things like elves and orcs had the intelligence to build up a civilization .

For now, there was a need to listen in detail .

“What kind of thing is this relic?”

“A relic is a relic . How am I supposed to explain further?”

“You’re doing this on purpose right? You should have seen it properly . Say it as you’ve seen it . ”

“There was an old looking structure in the forest . It seemed to be connected to the underground so I was going to go in but I am in a situation where I had to escape so I don’t know the details . ”

“An old looking structure? No, more importantly you ran away?”

From what, right when I was going to ask that a roar that shook the forest could be heard .

It automatically made me feel numb and chills climb up my spine . Something like the feeling of running into a tiger .

“Is it that?”

“Ahh, I seemed to have touched something . Something that seemed to be a stone statue suddenly started moving as if it was alive and attacked at light speed so I ran away . ”

“…… From now on if you find something don’t touch it and come report to me first . ”

“I’ll keep that in mind . Either way, since that thing is about to appear do you mind if I go in and hide?”

Should I hit him once?

While I was seriously contemplating the eagles started circling and making long crying sounds . It was saying that the monster was very close .

For now, Cho Young-gu stood at the front with the lake behind him .

Another roar spread out . It was a lot louder than before . The sound of trees getting knocked over could be heard and birds flew away .

“It’s in the direction of 11 o’clock with the van as the center . ”

Han Joon-suk shouted . With his words ending another roar could be heard .

“It’s in the direction of 11 o’clock with the van as the center . ”

Han Joon-suk shouted . With his words ending another roar could be heard .

“N, no, 9 o’clock . ”

The sound of trees getting knocked down . This side was almost getting bored at how unintelligently it was cras.h.i.+ng into the trees .

“This time from 1 o’clock direction!”

“What is it! What is going on?”

Manager Kim shouted with a loud voice .

“Calm down!”

No matter how strong it was, I was confident that we could win with this formation .

We had the monster corps on top of that . If the enemy’s level was high then they would only be able to keep it in check but they would be plenty to disperse the thing’s attention .

“Park Han……!”

Once I turned my head to the direction the sound came from, I could see a monster jumping at Park Han-sol . It was so fast that even I couldn’t do anything to stop it .

Park Han-b.u.m used the Hand Cannon . The monster that was going to bite him twisted its body to avoid the attack .

The place it landed was behind Cho Young-gu . It had landed right in the middle of our party members .

“Giant White Tiger!”

It was a monster I expected when I heard the roaring sound . Level 5 Giant White Tiger . As its name implied it was a big white tiger .

It looked just like a tiger but it had a large frame and was incredibly agile .

Its attacks were limited to biting and swinging its front paws but it was said to be hard to kill at the same level due to its agility .

Soo-ah who was the fastest dived in first .

I internally admired how she ran at a 3 meter long predatory animal without fear .

Thor’s Hammer that Soo-ah swung was blocked by the Giant White Tiger’s front paw .

Sparks flew but it didn’t look like it was affected at all .

Soo-ah also didn’t seem to care as she swung the hammer again .

The speed at which she swung the hammer was slow compared to the speed of her movement .

However, it was only relatively slow . It was enough to match up to the Giant White Tiger’s speed .

“Eat this!”

I swung my Hunter Sword as I joined in late .

The monster that had its escape path cut off by Soo-ah raised its front paw to meet my sword .

Its nail that hit my sword got cut off just like that . Its the conclusion of a mere level 5 monster raising its paw at the level 8 sword .

As if it was greatly perturbed it growled in a low voice and jumped back .

It was a jump that pa.s.sed Soo-ah’s height .

“Why did you take that out?”.

Soo-ah who was following me around saw the ring . If there was a speaking tournament that only used expressions then this girl would win no doubt

“I’m not giving it to you . Also, you know what this is . ”.

“I wasn’t expecting it you know . You didn’t take it out for a while . I asked because I’m curious . ”.
