Monster Hunter, start with a wife!

"Brother Zhuo!"

The alloy door had just slid open a crack when a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from inside the room.

Three figures hurriedly came forward to greet them.

Ruan Qinghe walked at the front, her pale hand grasping Cheng Zhuo's. She looked him up and down, and only after confirming that he was not injured did she let out a long sigh of relief, her voice still trembling slightly:

"Zhao, that bastard Zhao Shichang didn't give you any trouble, did he?"

"No, don't worry."

Cheng Zhuo took her slightly cool hand in return, then turned to the side, opened his arms to embrace Xia Chan who was leaning closer, and rubbed her head.

Finally, he glanced at Xia Mo, who was standing half a step further away, and gave her a look.

Xia Mo understood, and stepped forward slowly. With her silver-white hair, she leaned against Cheng Zhuo's chest and silently hugged his waist and back tightly.

"I'm sorry to have worried you," Cheng Zhuo said gently, trying to comfort his three wives.

"It's nothing. Zhao Shichang just wants to win me over, he's not trying to cause trouble."

"It's good that you're alright."

Ruan Qinghe leaned on Cheng Zhuo's shoulder, her heart still pounding with anxiety.

She had just heard Xia Chan say that the hunter team Cheng Zhuo fought in the Endless Wasteland had a logo on their combat uniforms that seemed to belong to the Thunder Guild.

Cheng Zhuo had completely sealed off the RV, so they had no idea what was happening outside.

But the cicadas had sharp ears and seemed to hear some sounds of battle.

She guessed that the entire squad had likely been wiped out by their Zhuo-gege.

Hearing Xia Chan's explanation, Ruan Qinghe became even more anxious. After all, Thunder was a powerful force that ordinary people could not shake. She knew that Cheng Zhuo was no longer the same as before, but she still couldn't help but worry.

"husband……"

Ruan Qinghe slowly raised her head, a resolute look appearing on her face:

"I'm not going to Kashu Academy anymore. I want to go to the Ecological Zone, to hunt alien beasts in the Ruins Realm. My sisters and I have discussed it. We want to become stronger, we want to awaken a second time, and we want to become your help, not a burden!"

From the moment I left the new house and watched Cheng Zhuo disappear from sight alone.

Ruan Qinghe secretly vowed in her heart that she must work hard to become stronger, and if such a thing happened again, she would never let Cheng Zhuo face the situation alone again.

She really hated this feeling of powerlessness.

Cheng Zhuo replied with a tone of pity:

"Weren't you traumatized after being dragged into the Void Realm when you were little? Aren't you afraid?"

"I'm scared." Ruan Qinghe nodded honestly, but gripped his hand even tighter. "Nothing scares me more than taking you away from me."

"Yeah! Me too!"

The cicadas nodded to each other like chicks pecking at rice.

Xia Mo also raised her face, her silence revealing an unwavering determination.

"Okay." Cheng Zhuo nodded slightly.

"I had this idea before, and since you're all willing, let's work together!"

"Wow, that's so cool."

……

After a brief moment of tenderness, Cheng Zhuo did not forget Catherine's instructions.

He led the three women to the medical area.

As soon as I reached the door, through the clean glass door, I saw Catherine sitting in the examination chair, her fingertips lightly pressing on the joint in Cyber's right leg—

The pale blue energy patterns faded, and she grasped the metal edge of the prosthetic limb, gently pulling it off to reveal the reddish skin at the severed limb.

Catherine noticed them and waved for them to come in.

Ruan Qinghe pushed open the door first and entered. She moved closer to Catherine, gently touching the severed part of Catherine's right thigh, and said with a slight frown:

"Sister K, does it hurt?"

"I'm used to it."

Catherine smiled and skillfully put on a set of bio-engineered prosthetics. The skin color blended almost seamlessly with her real legs, making it indistinguishable from real ones at first glance.

She casually removed the cybernetic compound eyes from her face, put on a pair of thin-rimmed gold-rimmed glasses, and her dark yellow long hair fell over her shoulders, covering the faint traces of mechanical interfaces behind her ears.

After removing all the mechanical devices, Catherine became much gentler.

She has a kind of girl-next-door vibe.

"What if I cultivate to the seventh level..."

Ruan Qinghe suddenly looked up, her eyes flashing with seriousness, and asked:

"Is there any way to help my sister recover? The book says that high-ranking priests' healing techniques can regenerate severed limbs."

Catherine's hand movements faltered slightly.

As if lost in memories, she murmured, "When I was first injured, there was a female member of the team who was a full-time healer, and she asked me the same question."

"What level is she at now?"

Ruan Qinghe's eyes lit up:

"Can I ask her some questions? I've made up my mind, I'm going to become a hunter!"

"she……"

Catherine lowered her eyes and remained silent for two seconds before looking up to meet Ruan Qinghe's sincere gaze, and couldn't help but smile gently:

"A seventh-tier priest... that should be possible, but we don't have any seventh-tier hunters in Star Iron City yet, so little sister will have to work hard."

Ruan Qinghe was a thoughtful person, and seeing her reaction, she immediately understood.

The young girl who was a full-time healer, as Catherine mentioned, is probably in grave danger.

Ruan Qinghe nodded slightly, "Yes, I will definitely try my best..."

"Okay, I'll wait for that day."

Catherine smiled and took her hand, then looked at Cheng Zhuo. "Come with me."

The four followed Catherine's footsteps, passing through several corridors, and arrived at a somewhat empty room.

"Enter……

Catherine pushed open the door and raised her hand to invite him in. Her gaze swept over the sofa, and suddenly she cried out, "Oh dear!" She rushed in hurriedly, picked up the pile of messy clothes on the sofa, and threw them all into the bedroom.

"Hehe... sit wherever you like."

Catherine gave an awkward smile and secretly picked up the black T-shirt that had fallen to the ground.

Everyone pretended not to see and found a place to sit down.

The interior was very simple. Apart from a sofa, coffee table, a shelf for drinks, and a refrigerator, there was only one thing that gave it a bit of a homey feel.

Catherine walked to the bookshelf and took down an unopened brown package from the top shelf, which was still bearing the emblem of Redstone.

"This was sent by Mayor Wang of Hongshi Town; it just arrived."

Catherine handed the package to Cheng Zhuo:

"He only brought one sentence: thank you for the honor you brought to Redstone Town. Everything here is a gift to you free of charge, and you are exempt from the clearing task next month."

"Oh?"

Cheng Zhuo was somewhat surprised, not expecting such an unexpected surprise.
