Chapter 133 The Great Swordsman Comes Out

"what are you talking about?"

Heather looked at Ilsan strangely: "This is my hard-earned hard-earned money, Xiaoba can testify. Xiaoba?"

A cat's head appeared on the surface of the hot spring: "Meow! The owner and I worked hard to earn the money meow!"

After talking, Xiao Hachi continued to compete with Sasaki on diving skills. I don't know how they managed to dive for 2 minutes in such hot water.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm wrong..." Ilsan stuck out her tongue: "Tell me, what kind of job is so lucrative, and I want to participate. I'm telling you, Heather, you don't even know the end result. How expensive are the weapons and armor of Cloud Village!"

Seeing that Irshan was about to enter the mouth breaking mode again, Heather hurriedly stopped: "I said I said, it's [Cat Car]."

"Cat car? Where did you get the cat car?" Ilsan narrowed her eyes suspiciously.

Heather poured a glass of sake and took a sip, then leaned into Ilsan's ear and whispered, "Don't tell anyone, I secretly went to the creek area today and cut a few juniper trees to make a cat cart."

"you!"

Ilsan became anxious when she heard this, and clapped her two little hands on Heather's bare shoulders, and a red mark immediately appeared on the latter's shoulders: "Jieyun Village clearly prohibits the arbitrary cutting of Jieyun wood. Violators will be fined, detained, and handed over directly to Wang Lijun, you, you, you, you will be mad at me, bad AIBO!"

Hearing Ilsan's furious voice and trying to keep her voice down, Heather grinned and rubbed her shoulders before reassuring: "Don't worry, although the materials used to make the car are a bit of a misnomer, the reward is fair and square."

Heather immediately told Ilsan about his glorious deeds of fighting the Wild Boar King to save the hunter Luther. Xiaoba, who was idle and had nothing to do, continued to exaggerate the dangers of the process and stunned the little girl. At first glance, for a moment, he forgot to pursue the matter of Heather stealing the knotted cloud tree.

"8400Z... It's really good to make money. I saved less than 1000Z after saving for so long from Dongdoruma to Jieyun Village."

Ilsan was full of envy, but did not agree with Heather's solicitation: "Sorry, I still want to continue to be a monster hunter. Ah, it's not that I look down on the cat car driver, but I'm really not that person. .I have always wanted to be the strongest monster hunter since I was a child and kept working towards this goal, but I can't do anything well except be a monster hunter, really. Sorry AIBO!"

Saying that, Ilsan folded her hands together and apologized solemnly to Heather.In her opinion, Heather is so powerful and willing to recruit him to be a cat car driver to make a lot of money. He really regards himself as a friend, which makes Ilsan, who has no friends since childhood, very happy and moved.

Don't apologize in such a serious way, it makes me embarrassed too.Heather scratched his cheeks, feeling a little embarrassed: "You're out now. Well, tomorrow I'll also buy a weapon and go to the instructor test. After passing the test, we'll form a team to pick up the more challenging ones. Go on a mission. A...AIBO?"

Ilsan's eyes lit up, she rushed over excitedly and hugged Heather, splashing a lot of water in the hot spring: "AIBO!"

"Idiot! Let go!" Heather blushed with anxiety, but for a while, she couldn't get rid of Ilsan's strange bear hug. Isn't this guy really an ancient dragon cub?
Well-meaning laughter and whistles continued from the corridor outside the spa fence.

Hachi secretly took Heather's meal tray aside and chewed peanuts with Sasaki while watching the masters fight.

"Tachi? Are you sure about AIBO?"

The next day, Ilsan insisted on going to the equipment store with Heather to help his staff buy weapons. Perhaps for her, this was equivalent to visiting a brand-name clothing store?

But she didn't expect Heather to choose Tachi too.

"Is it strange? I'm quite skilled in using [Sword], well, I need to get used to this size of [Tachi] a little bit."

Heather looked around while holding a huge sword that was over two meters high, and then asked, "Boss, is this made of cloud wood?"

"That's right, the Taidao is made of the finest Yuyun wood. It is not only sharp but also extremely tough. This is a special Taidao that is only sold in Jieyun Village." The boss said with a smile: "The one in your hand is One of the most well-crafted katanas."

"Well, I want, how much?"

"Shenghui 1500Z."

"Wow, it's so expensive!" Before Heather could speak, Ilsan shouted in surprise, which was more than her entire net worth.

Heather, who just got a windfall, didn't care: "I also want to order a [Jieyun suit]."

"For the full set, you need to measure your corresponding body data. You can come and pick it up in two days, Shenghui 1000Z."

Ilsan didn't dare to listen anymore, it was so scary, the prices in Jieyun Village were so scary!
Heather paid the deposit without saying a word, asked the boss to help him measure and record his body data, and then took the tachi and walked out of the equipment store with Ilsan, who was still pale.

Walking along the wide avenue in the village towards the training center, Heather said to Ilsan while storing the dachi in the scabbard behind her back:
"Ilshan, work hard to accumulate materials. We must not only master melee weapons, but also learn to use long-range weapons."

"Huh? Why?" Ilsan asked strangely.

"Some monsters are more suitable for crusade with ranged weapons than melee weapons."

What Heather said was based on experience (game): "I'm going to use [Heavy Crossbow] as a backup, how about you?"

Irshan tilted her head and thought for a while: "Well... If I had to choose a long-range weapon, I would prefer [bow]. But AIBO, are you sure you want to choose another weapon? I didn't choose a long-range weapon at the beginning. It's because the ammunition is too expensive."

"What are you afraid of, I'm a part-time cat car driver, and I can earn back a year's worth of ammunition after two missions. Don't worry, your ammo fee is also under my control." Heather's tone was full of wealth and wealth. arrogance.

"Really?" Ilsan became happy all of a sudden, she is not polite to Heather now, it is AIBO anyway.

The two chatted while walking, and soon arrived at the door of the training center.

"Come on AIBO, I'll wait for you at the door."

"It won't make you wait long."

Saying goodbye to Ilsan for a while, Heather pushed open the door of the training center, only to find that it was pitch dark inside and nothing could be seen.

After taking two steps forward, the door behind him automatically closed with a bang, the only light disappeared, and the surroundings fell into absolute darkness.

But Heather wasn't in a hurry at all. After opening the [Circle], he sensed a living body not far in front of him, probably planning some dramatic way to appear on the stage.

laugh!
Sure enough, the surrounding torches suddenly lit up, and a tall middle-aged man with a mustache stood on the box with his arms folded over his chest, with an unfathomable look:

"Oh oh oh! There is another rookie who wants to embark on the way of hunting (Heather: I am just here to obtain the qualification of hunter), I can feel the confusion and fear in your heart (Heather: No, not at all Oh), it doesn’t matter, just put your heart in your pelvis (Heather: Guo Degang?), the instructor, I will teach you how to use the weapon in your hand thoroughly, and you are the future hunting star (Heather: Isn’t it the blue star? )!"

After speaking, Heather's ranting ended, and the scene fell into an awkward silence for a while.

The mustache instructor held his hand beside his mouth and coughed: "Cough, so you want to get the hunting qualification. Boy, this is not easy?"

"Just use the weapon to pass the trial, right?" Heather touched the hilt behind his left shoulder: "Are you going to fight with you?"

"Of course not fighting with me. You want to be a monster hunter, not a guild knight (Note 1)."

The instructor shook his finger: "If you want to be a qualified hunter, you must have a flexible mind and a wealth of knowledge, as well as athletic ability and strength beyond ordinary people."

With that said, he turned and walked towards the door on the other side of the house:

"follow me."

After pushing open the gate and walking along the mountain road for a short distance, what came into sight was a circular arena built on the mountain, the kind without auditoriums.

In the center of the field, three dog dragons were wandering loosely.

"What you have to do is enter the arena and stay under the attack of the three dog dragons for 3 minutes, or defeat them." The instructor raised his eyebrows at Heather: "It's very simple, right? Don't try to escape, the arena It's so big, you can't outrun those dog dragons. Remember, use weapons flexibly, don't be greedy for knives."

Heather nodded, took a few steps forward and was about to jump down but stopped.

The instructor thought that Heather regretted it, and said loudly, "It doesn't matter. If you are not ready, you can come later. Caution is a virtue."

"I just wanted to ask a question."

Heather pulled out the huge sword behind him and smiled slightly: "If I kill these dog dragons, it won't make me lose money, right?"

The instructor shook his head dumbfounded: "Don't worry, I won't let you pay. I said, don't underestimate these dog dragons. Young people in the village who want to be hunters are often beaten up by them. Those with outstanding strength like Luther The young man also ran for 3 minutes in the arena with his amazing foot strength, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Heather jump down from the arena with a knife.

Tsk, young man... The instructor walked to the edge of the arena, stroked the hilts of the double knives behind his waist, and was ready to jump off the arena for rescue at any time.

Heather landed lightly and looked at the dog dragon who was startled and gradually surrounded him. He gently shook the tachi in his hand, and the blade reflected a cold light.

Just right, take them and try to see if you can use [Dragon Climb].

------------------

Note 1: [Guild Knights] is a special response organization specially set up by the Hunters Guild to deal with poachers. They are hunters who hunt [Hunters], and will wipe out those hunters who wantonly poach and affect the ecological balance in the form of assassination. They will uniformly use the [Xunlong] suit, which is convenient for stealthy actions, as standard equipment.

　PS: That trick is actually not called 'Dragon Climbing', but 'Qi Blade Cutting', which is the signature skill of Tai Dao Xia.
