Monster Hunter: Wild Pointer

When Muxiang entered the living room, she looked up and saw her hunting partner, who she thought had been hacked to death, and she couldn't help but scream.

The guy was burying his head in a food bowl that was too small for his body, licking it frantically. A furry puppy next to him, not even as tall as his knees, was running around in panic, but couldn't do anything about it.

Mu Xiang: “…”

This guy rushed in just to grab a pet dog's food?!

"A very energetic child." A female voice sounded in my ears.

Muxiang came to her senses and quickly turned around. Near the floor-to-ceiling window, on an unbelievably luxurious high-back chair, a graceful lady was supporting her chin with her knuckles, looking at them lazily.

The golden wavy hair is a little messy, maybe because she just woke up?

"Princess, the guests have been brought here." The head maid placed her hands on her stomach and bowed.

"Well, go ahead." The lady in the high-backed chair snapped her fingers and said casually.

The head maid lowered her head and backed away, carefully closing the door before leaving the living room.

"My Lady Princess..."

After confirming the other party's identity, Muxiang was about to take out the letters from her teacher and others when she saw the princess, who was elegant and dignified a second ago, suddenly jump up from her chair, walk a few steps to Xiang, who was licking the food bowl, and reach out to scratch Xiang's chin.

"Lie down! Show your belly~!"

Muxiang opened her mouth and was about to tell the princess that hounds were not pet dogs. Unless it was someone they trusted very much, they would not easily expose their belly, which was their weakness, to the other party.

Even though she has become a partner with Xiang, she cannot touch Xiang's belly casually.

Then she watched as it fell to the ground with a loud "Woof!", its belly exposed and its big tongue sticking out.

"Hulu hulu hulu!" The princess put her hands on Xiang's furry belly and rubbed it vigorously, then pounced on him and hugged him, burying her head in Xiang's neck and taking a few deep breaths.

After a moment, the princess raised her head and sighed with an intoxicated look on her face, "The Fang Hound is indeed different!"

Mu Xiang: “…”

I seem to understand why the princess's hair is so messy.

After enjoying herself to the fullest, the princess climbed up from Xiang and straightened her appearance. "You must be the daughter of Muxiang, Aicao, and Daoji. I've heard them talk about you."

Daughter... So this is how teachers call themselves...

Muxiang pursed her lips and was about to respond when she heard another "Woof!" and at the same time, she nudged the clean dog food bowl with the tip of her nose.

The princess's attention was instantly diverted. "Not enough to eat? No wonder, he's so big after all. Wait a minute!"

As she said this, the lady lifted her skirt and walked quickly to a cabinet, dragging a huge bag over.

"These are the dog food specially made by my concubine, Todaoji. If you like it, eat it all!"

As she spoke, the princess tore open the bag under the desperate gaze of the pet puppy and poured out all the dog food inside, flooding the gorgeous and expensive golden-red carpet.

Xiang cheered and rushed over, eating heartily.

Muxiang's eyes twitched twice. She finally understood why Xiang had suddenly gone "crazy" just now. It must be because he smelled the scent of Mr. Daoji's special food...

After feeding, the princess's gaze fell on Muxiang again.

Muxiang, remembering her business, quickly took out the letters from her teacher and handed them to the other party.

The princess took the letter, glanced at it for a few seconds, and put it away. She didn't say what was written in the letter. Instead, she picked up the bell beside the table and rang it, called the maid, ordered tea and snacks to be served, and then resumed her lazy sitting posture.

Chatting with Muxiang about the Tooth Hound.

"I've always wanted to raise some hounds, but your father has always disagreed, saying I can't even take care of an ordinary pet dog. How ridiculous!"

It took Muxiang half a second to realize that the "your father" that Princess Wang was referring to was Mr. Daoji.

Muxiang calmly glanced at the snow-white pet dog that had become fat as a ball and was burying its head desperately trying to compete with Xiang for food, and tried to put on a polite smile.

"Forget about not providing for me."

The princess snorted in dissatisfaction, picked up the black tea brought by the maid, and took a sip with her chin raised, "I like this child very much. When you are free, you can bring it to me to have fun.

You're a hunter, right? If I'm feeling up one day, I might just give you some simple, high-paying quests.

Muxiang nodded in a daze.

She suddenly remembered a rumor circulating among the older hunters that the kingdom's third princess would often issue some very arbitrary and reckless missions.

For example, catching lava dragons as ornamental fish, catching boomerangs as alarm clocks, or hunting golden lions to make fur cloaks.

The former first princess has now inherited the throne and become the queen, so naturally she will no longer be called the princess.

Furthermore, the Queen hadn't given birth to a princess, so this princess before us...

"Excuse me," Mu Xiang said tentatively, "but what kind of 'simple' mission does Your Highness mean?"

The princess tilted her head and thought for a moment, "For example, how about getting a horned dragon egg? The soufflé and egg pudding made with horned dragon eggs are both quite delicious. I want to eat them right now.

"Would you like to accept the commission? It's just a matter of moving an egg, no fighting required, pretty easy, right?"

Mu Xiang's expression became stiff. "Can I have a fire dragon egg?"

At least I can defeat the female fire dragon.

"No, the dragon eggs are gray and ugly."

"..."

Unless it is necessary, I will never set foot here again!

Chapter 252: You’re just a fish on the roadside. I’ll beat you to death!

After chatting with the noble princess for a while, Muxiang finally found an opportunity, stood up and said goodbye, preparing to leave.

She was worried that Xiang would be reluctant to leave, but she didn't expect that this guy left quite happily, because he had eaten up all the special food and even washed the carpet with his tongue.

Anyway, the princess's pet puppy looks quite desperate.

Before leaving, the princess folded the small fan in her hand and nodded to Muxiang, signaling her to wait.

Then she called the head maid and gave her a few instructions.

The head maid left quickly and soon came back with an exquisite little wooden box.

In front of Muxiang, the princess opened the small wooden box, revealing a pendant with a light purple halo placed on the cushion.

It was a protective stone of high quality.

"Collecting protective stones is my hobby. Isn't it beautiful?" The princess picked up the protective stone with her fingertips and asked Muxiang.

Not knowing what else to say, Mu Xiang nodded and said, "Indeed."

"The protection contained in this amulet strengthens the user's body, allowing them to run for long periods without tiring easily (runner), while also allowing them to jump higher and farther (evasion distance).

deliver."

Muxiang, who originally thought the princess was just trying to show off to her, quickly stood up and said, "No! I have done nothing of any merit, and I truly don't deserve this."

"Don't interrupt me!" The princess glared at her and then waved at Xiang.

Xiang ran up to the princess with his tongue hanging out. The princess continued, "This child seems to be a good match. I'll give him this protective stone as a decoration!"

As she spoke, she tried to scrape the protective stone against Xiang's neck, but Xiang's neck was too thick and she couldn't get it to stick on it no matter what.

The princess took a look and casually hung the protective stone on the pointed dog ears.

Xiang felt a little itchy and shook his ears, and the protective stone almost fell off.

Muxiang wanted to say something but stopped herself. Who would give a dog a protective stone? The protection of the protective stone was ineffective against the hound. Even if she was stupid, she could see that this was just an excuse made up by the princess.

Just as she was about to refuse again, the princess stood up leisurely and walked out of the reception room, "I'm sleepy, Lina, please show me around."

Muxiang wanted to chase after him, but the smiling head maid stopped her and gently, politely, yet firmly escorted her out of the mansion.

Looking at the closed iron gate and the two guards at the door with vigilant eyes, Muxiang had no choice but to leave with Xiang.

Xiang, who was following her, suddenly shook his head, dropping the protective stone. Muxiang caught it in a panic, and when she wanted to hang it back on Xiang, the latter jumped away.

Helplessly, Muxiang had to put away the protective stone for the time being.

"I'll write a letter to the teacher and ask her what to do." After mumbling to herself, Muxiang tugged at her loud ears. "It really causes trouble for others."

"Wang!"

People have strong adaptability.

On the first day after being dragged back to the training ground from her bed at home, Muti was in great pain and felt so tired that she wanted to vomit at the end of the day. However, after more than half a month of high-intensity training, she had become numb.

So when Instructor Altman told her yesterday evening that her special training was over and she could rest and relax for two days before going back to "work".

Muti was completely confused. Rest? Relax? What was that?

This morning, before dawn, her mind was still fuzzy, but her body started moving on its own. It was not until she ran to the training ground that she realized that she could actually sleep in today.

But after all this trouble, how could I still feel sleepy?

Now that things have come to this, let's train first.

So when Muxiang followed the address to Muti's house and, under the guidance of Amos with a pleased face, came to the training ground, Muti was already sweating all over.

When Muxiang heard that Muti had been training like this for more than half a month, visible shame suddenly appeared on her face.

What have I been doing since I returned to Yanhuo Village? Playing with the dog, petting the cat, and eating dumplings.

Seeing her partner coming, Muti, who had been training to the point of being numb, ran over happily and hugged Muxiang, who was a whole head shorter than her.

I sniffed and inexplicably felt like crying.

Woo. I won’t come back next time I have a holiday!

Muxiang took out a towel and wiped the sweat off her face caused by Muti. Just as she was about to introduce Xiang to her, she saw the big dog running to Yuwan, who was also sweating.

He stretched out his nose to sniff, and Yuwan leaned back in disgust.

He stuck out his big tongue again and wanted to lick Xiang, but Yuwan screamed "Meow!" and slapped Xiang's nose with his two claws. Xiang lowered his head and hugged his head, whimpering in pain.

"Fish balls!" Muti quickly scolded.

"It's okay, it's okay." Muxiang just found it funny. This was the first time she saw Xiang suffer a loss.

This child is strong and young. The strong hounds among Mr. Daoji's hounds are too lazy to pay attention to him, and the younger ones can't beat him. He has gradually developed this bully character. It would be good if he could learn a lesson.

But Xiang is not someone who would easily suffer a loss.

After covering its nose and howling a few times, it suddenly jumped up and pounced forward, trying to knock Yuwan to the ground and let the latter see how powerful it was!

However, it greatly underestimated the strength of fish balls.

Long before Xiangpu jumped up, Yuwan had roughly judged its attack intention through Xiang's muscle movements.

The cat's pupils narrowed.

It was confirmed that Xiang did not show his teeth, which meant that he was not going to launch a real damaging attack, so Yuwan did not pop out his claws, making the scene too bloody and cruel.

But it also didn't intend to let this stupid dog have an easy time.

He jumped like this when we just met. If I don’t defeat him, it will be inconvenient to communicate with him in the future!

Yuwan's movements were so fast that Xiang couldn't even see them clearly. He disappeared from Xiang's sight in a flash. His furry little paws, which looked completely harmless, hugged Xiang's neck from below and twisted his body as Xiang lunged forward.

With a loud "bang!"

Xiang, who weighed more than ten times that of Yuwan, was thrown from his back and slammed hard onto the yellow earth of the training ground.

"Ah!" He screamed in pain after being thrown to the ground.

"You still dare to cry, meow?" Yuwan continued to punch and kick Xiang's head, "I told you not to sneak attack meow! You're just a fish on the side of the road, and you think you're so powerful, meow?

If you dare to mess around again, I'll beat you to death!"

Xiang held his head and twisted around, trying to avoid Yuwan's attack, but Yuwan's claws always managed to bypass his avoidance and defense and step hard on his fragile and sensitive parts such as the tip of his nose.

Muxiang was stunned.

Yuwan is not big among Elu's creatures, and can even be called petite. He has a round face and looks very cute. He is not wearing any protective gear at the moment, which can easily give people the wrong impression that he is harmless.

She had forgotten for a moment that this guy could hunt four-star dangerous monsters alone.

Although Xiang is big in stature, he has too little combat experience. He can deal with monsters like wild boars and dog dragons, but if he encounters a blue bear beast or something like that, he will be chased away. The strength of the two is simply not on the same level.

Muti was also dumbfounded. She didn't expect Yuwan to be so cruel.

She ran over quickly and tried to hug Yuwan away, but Yuwan, who hadn't hunted for a whole holiday and was in a bad mood, twisted his body and dodged her hands, and kicked Xiang in the chin again.
