Will Ditto dream of the Monster Hunter Rathalos?

"..."

Han Xin had read the memory fragments of Meralu, but they were just fragments. He had not experienced Meralu's life, and he didn't even know what Meralu's name was.

Regret exists in every world.

This is not unusual.

But if there is no one left to cherish these regrets, then that Meralu is truly dead.

Die in this world, die in the memories of others.

Seeing that Han Xin didn't say anything, Chihong didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he activated the power of the system and collected the acorns out of thin air.

Then, Han Xin hung the [Shell Bell] around his neck, thus wearing it.

However, it is said to be a shell "bell", but this thing does not seem to make any sound. It is just a prop with magical powers.

This is actually a good thing. In the dangerous world of Monster Hunter, a pleasant ringtone can expose your location at any time.

Han Xin sighed.

The most urgent task is to find a way to treat the wound.

However, there didn't seem to be any larger creatures around that could be used to cast [Divide the Pain] or [Shell Bell].

However, he suddenly had an idea!

"Since this [body] doesn't work, then I'll try another [body]?!"

With this thought in mind, Han Xin walked to the body of the Kamaitachi Dragon King and, following his instinct, transformed from Meowth...that is, Meral, back into Ditto!

However, even after turning into Ditto, Han Xin could still feel the intense pain spreading through his jelly-like body, and his dying vitality was still lingering on in this purple body.

Then, he stretched out his jelly-like little hands towards the body of the Kamaitachi Dragon King.

It was this gentle touch that triggered a series of chain reactions!

A mysterious light bloomed from the body of the Kamawesaur Dragon King, and powerful energy burst out and poured into Han Xin's body!

The scene in front of him was exactly the same as when Han Xin touched the body of Melalu!

"Ding!

Congratulations to the host for obtaining...

What the hell did you copy?

Hiss... This body structure...

Forget it, I'll just make up a random story and delete it later.

Congratulations to the host... for obtaining the transformation privilege of [Mongoose Slash]!

Get a chance to win a prize!"

In order to complete his performance evaluation, Chihong has started to make up stories.

But Han Xin didn't care.

It is enough for him to gain the strength to survive in this world!

As for the process, it doesn't matter.

"Red, let me transform into Kamaitachi Dragon King... Oh, no, Mongoose Slash."

Han Xin suppressed his excitement and anticipation and spoke to the system in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"No problem! Transform!"

With the help of Chihong, Han Xin's jelly-like body began to regenerate, repair, and grow. Finally, under a flash of white light, it turned into the opponent he had just fought to the death - the Kamaweasel Dragon King!

The originally scarred body and weak vitality quickly recovered with the blessing of this energy!

In an instant, the sickle-weasel dragon king transformed by Han Xin had reached its best condition!

But then he discovered that the body of the sickle-weasel dragon king gradually turned into a point of light, and as the last ray of sunlight fell, it disappeared into the night.

Although Han Xin was ecstatic about his recovery, he was stunned when he saw this scene and looked towards the tree where Melalu's body was placed not far away.

He discovered that the body of Melalu had long since disappeared.

"Red, explain to me why they disappeared after I copied their bodies?"

"Ding!

Ah... you know, in a sense, they're not Pokémon. I can't show off my abilities and do evil things like I can in the Pokémon world. I have to maintain the energy system of this world. So, when you copy their energy, their original bodies will dissipate."

Chihong explained with a bit of embarrassment.

"Is this the so-called [Law of Conservation of Energy]?"

"Well... that's understandable."

Han Xin recalled the battle just now and asked another question: "During the battle, I can't use Ditto's transformation skill to transform into the enemy. You said it was because the enemy is not a [Pokémon], but why can I copy its body and transform after it dies?"

"Ditto's transformation ability, to put it simply, is the analysis and reorganization of a certain biological structure. Completing this process requires sufficient [knowledge] and [energy].

If it were in the Pokémon world, this system could easily do it.

However, the knowledge and ability systems of creatures in this world are completely different.

To put it bluntly, host, you and I are aliens in this world, and should not exist in this world.

Therefore, the life system of this world...or the rules, do not allow us to deprive the indigenous people of their knowledge and energy.

This is also why you can only copy their corpses... After all, the energy after death is not constrained by the original owner's vitality."

“…” Han Xin remained silent.

"Um... do you understand, host?"

"Don't make any noise, I'm thinking!

"No more rambling, no more nonsense, but to put it bluntly, buddy, start killing! After you're done killing, you can transform, right?"

"Huh? Ah... you're right..."

"I understand, I understand it all! Everything is born with..."

However, before Han Xin could tell him about his future plans, the memory fragments of the Kamaitachi Dragon King merged into his mind!

As I recall, this sickle-weasel dragon king led a small tribe... no, calling it a tribe would be an exaggeration... perhaps it would be better to say it was a family.

That small family consisted of only a weak female dragon and five young sickle-weasel dragons.

Not long ago, it, which had just reached adulthood, separated from a large group of sickle-tailed dragons and found a lone female dragon.

Then, he began to prey on small animals such as Maru Birds, Will-O-Wisp Birds, and Yeast Rabbits to feed himself and the female dragon.

The sickle-weasel dragon was not a creature with a high ecological niche. It had to maneuver and escape among predators much stronger than itself, such as the fire dragon, the orb-spining dragon, and even the thunder dragon, and lived a difficult life.

It was during this process that he grew from a sickle-tailed dragon to a sickle-tailed dragon king, established a new family with the female dragon, and gave birth to five sickle-tailed dragons.

Originally, as long as this sickle-weasel dragon king could continue to survive stably, then this small family would have the potential to grow into a tribe...

But now, this sickle-weasel dragon king and its two children were killed by Han Xin while foraging.

Han Xin, recalling all this, narrowed his eyes and looked at the rising moon.

"Host? What's wrong with you, Host? Why did you stop talking mid-sentence?"

"Hey, Chihong, I have a bold idea..."

Rise of the Wei Dynasty: Chapter 7: The Legacy of Wei Wu

"Ideas? What bold ideas?" There was a hint of curiosity in the red and ethereal voice.

"Before answering this question, let me first confirm how accurate my [Transformation] can be."

At this point, the system became excited and told Han Xin proudly:

"Under the operation of this system, the host can perfectly replicate the corresponding monster one-to-one... I mean, Pokémon, even the number of hairs will be exactly the same!"

"Is that so? Then I feel relieved."

"So, what are you going to do?"

"I want to infiltrate the original owner's tribe as the Kamaitachi Dragon King."

"Sneak in? I say, you don't want to sneak in as their leader and then wipe them out completely, do you?"

"Hiss, I'm very interested in what you said. Can you tell me why you think so?"

"Because you always say things like 'Heaven created all things to nourish man, but man has nothing to repay Heaven'. Isn't that from the Seven Killings poem..."

"Wow, I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable about a system."

"Of course I like to chat with you. Before I took up this position in the system, I also liked reading novels!

Look at the protagonists in novels nowadays. They will kill the enemy’s entire family or slaughter the entire sect if they have a disagreement with them.

Plus, when you, the host, fight... how should I put it, it's... quite crazy..."

"You're right. After all, the protagonists of those novels have to deal with all sorts of complicated social situations. If they kill one person, they have to kill the whole family, lest the enemy's descendants come after them..."

Han Xin paused, then continued with interest:

"But, what I'm facing are not humans, but a group of unintelligent monsters, right?

As long as I treat them well as the leader of the Kamaitachi Dragon King, they will continue to treat me as the real boss!"

At this point, Han Xin's eyes revealed an expectant smile, which, combined with the sickle-weasel dragon king's naturally cunning and ferocious mouth, seemed extremely distorted.

In this way, the system also understood what he was going to do, and said in surprise:

"Wait, wait, wait, the host wants to live among monsters as this Kamaitachi Dragon King?!"

"Yes. But only temporarily."

"Hey! Host, do you know what you are doing?

If a serious reader sees this, he will definitely think you are a nanny!

They hate this the most. You're raising someone else's offspring! They're going to be blasted to pieces! It's extremely poisonous!"

"You must be kidding, I don't care about those Kamatailosauruses at all. Besides, as a Ditto, I can transform and leave at any time.
