Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 4 Good Bear Brother and a Quilt
The bright moon hangs high in the sky, the stars twinkle, and the calm lake reflects the starry sky as well as a bonfire on the shore.

The firewood burned in the flames, making crackling sounds from time to time. The sparks splashed onto the river fish that was pierced by a wooden stick nearby, leaving some charred spots on it.

The scene shifted, revealing a naked young man, with only a wild boar skin covering his lower body, sitting cross-legged beside a fire. He absorbed the heat from the fire to fight the damp and cold night, while turning the wooden stick in his hand to ensure that the grilled fish was heated more evenly.

"huh, huh"

Feeling that the fish was almost done, Lin Lin leaned over to blow on it, then carefully took a bite of the fish. The tenderness of the sashimi fish itself, combined with the smoky aroma from the barbecue, was not only delicious but also brought a strong sense of warmth, which was particularly satisfying in the cool night breeze.

After swallowing the grilled fish in a few bites, Lin Lin wiped the sweat from his forehead, carefully felt his own condition, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

After soaking in the water for such a long time and then being naked and exposed to the cold night breeze after coming ashore, if it were in the past, he would definitely have had a high fever.

Fortunately, this is the magical Monster Hunter world. I picked a few herbs and chewed them, then ate a grilled fish that was crispy on the outside, tender and delicious on the inside. I didn't feel full of energy immediately, but at least the slight dizziness at the beginning disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Snapped"

Another big fish fell in front of Lin Lin, this time it was a greedy tuna that was nearly 40 centimeters in size.

Lin Lin shook his head helplessly, pierced it with a sharp branch, and without removing the scales or organs, he just roasted it directly on the fire.

After all, he didn't eat the fish himself.

He raised his head and saw the Green Bear Beast squatting on the other side of the fire. Its dark eyes were fixed on the grilled fish in his hand without blinking, and drool kept dripping from the corners of its mouth.

Looking at the appearance of the Green Bear Beast and recalling the scene not long ago, Lin Lin couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

The blue bear beast in the wild had never seen human cooking methods. In its simple understanding, fish can be directly caught and eaten. Therefore, when it saw that Lin Lin did not directly accept its gift, but collected dead branches everywhere to light a bonfire, its curiosity was already aroused.

To this end, it tentatively used its claws to poke the campfire, but the hair on its claws almost caught fire. It was so scared that it quickly ran to the river to calm down.

Then, when Lin Lin finished processing the sashimi fish and put it on the fire to start grilling, this guy was seduced by the aroma again, and came close to Lin Lin eagerly, with his black, wet nose constantly moving, and saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth onto the grilled fish, forcing Lin Lin to stuff the first grilled fish into the mouth of the blue bear beast helplessly.

Then, after carefully savoring the delicious food, the Blue Bearmon commented: "Roar!"

The general meaning is, "I am from the West! I am from the country! But I don't have the liver or belly, and I lack the soul."

Lin Lin rolled his eyes and regained his composure. Seeing that the tuna in his hand was already fragrant, he raised his hand and threw it to the blue bear beast, then quietly watched the other party devour it.

If there were a favorability system, maybe he would see Blue Bearmon's favorability towards him rising rapidly right now?
Well, normally, there shouldn't be any highly dangerous monsters in the stream area. With such a good bear brother here, as long as we don't encounter flying dragons like the female fire dragon, our safety should be guaranteed, and we won't be so worried when exploring the surroundings next time.

Oh, when can I find Jieyun Village? I really want to soak in the hot springs and have a good meal!

By the way, if we really find Jieyun Village, we should be able to eat meat, right? We shouldn't just be able to drink beverages, right?
In the quiet night, the interweaving chirps of insects and the crackling of the burning bonfire intertwined. Fatigue surged from his roiling mind, gradually drowning out his chaotic thoughts. Before he knew it, Lin Lin had collapsed to the ground, snoring softly. Meanwhile, the Blue Bear had already devoured the entire tuna, licking its paws relentlessly, soaking up the fragrant oil.

Just as he was about to get up and go down to the lake to catch a few more river fish and ask this human to help him use the magic fire to make the fish more delicious, he found that the other party had already lay on the ground and was fast asleep.

"You can sleep so well..."

Thinking this in his mind, noticing the other party's curled up posture and faint trembling, the Green Bear Beast stood up, slowly walked to Lin Lin's side, and lay down on his side, half hugging him in his arms. His large body blocked the cold wind, and his thick and lush hair locked in the surrounding heat. Lin Lin's slightly frowned brows gradually relaxed while he was sleeping.

"Humans, without strong fur, are truly fragile..."

Thinking this, the Blue Bear Beast closed his eyes and fell asleep to savor the delicious grilled fish.

……

Time passed quickly, and about a week had passed since Lin Lin was attacked by a group of dog dragons and fell off the cliff.

During this period, thanks to Lin Lin's decent grilling skills and some spices he collected from all around, the Green Bear Beast has become completely addicted to the grilled fish he made. The relationship between the two sides has quickly become closer, and hiding in the Green Bear Beast's thick and dense hair to sleep has become Lin Lin's daily routine these days.

On this day, Lin Lin suddenly had an idea. Since the Green Bear Beast’s two favorite foods are honey and fish, wouldn’t it be double the joy if he brushed honey on the grilled fish?

Out of gratitude to the Blue Bear Beast and to further strengthen the relationship, Lin Lin left the lake where he was currently living and explored the forest further upstream, hoping to find some honey.

Just as Lin Lin lit a torch and used smoke to drive away the bees in the hive, on the other side of the forest, a hunter wearing red and blue armor and carrying a heavy sword and shield also stepped into the jungle.

A hunter named Kevin swaggered into the deep forest, not worrying about being attacked by monsters.

Of course, in reality, Kevin really didn't need to worry. If the monsters could recognize what monsters the materials of his equipment came from, they would know that their attacks were completely self-defeating.

The helmet, breastplate, and waist armor come from the fire dragon, known as the king of the sky; the arm armor comes from the "sure-kill flash" general sickle crab; the leg armor comes from a slightly inferior source, a flying beetle, but that is also a last resort to stimulate the equipment's protective ability. As for the weapon carried on the back, it is the Tyrant Bronze Shield made of materials from the Desert Tyrant Ceratops.

The equipment on a hunter can often reflect the hunter's strength, and the equipment on Kevin is enough to show how powerful he is.

He raised his hand to adjust his fire dragon helmet, then took out a piece of parchment from his waist and unfolded it, repeatedly comparing it with the marks on the picture, and couldn't help but reveal a thoughtful look.

"What's wrong with this map? There's nothing at the marked collection points. Where's my honey?"

Yes, the powerful hunter Kevin came here, and the purpose of the commission he undertook was to collect honey!
