MTL - Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter-Chapter 67 family squad

  Chapter 67 Family Squad

   "Bi Li has never been afraid of anyone before, but today he overturned his car in front of you kid. Damn, what did you eat to grow up? In another ten years, you won't be able to fly into the sky?"

  Because the palm was too wide to fit the handle of the wine glass, Ted, who had to grab the glass and pour the wine into his mouth, wiped his mouth with his sleeve and cursed.

   This giant man named Ted is a four-star hunter and an acquaintance of Ushula.

   On the day they returned to Minergard City, they just ran into each other at the counter area of ​​the assembly hall, and Ohhura introduced Gordon to Ted and his companions.

  Ted is a member of a fixed hunting team. This team is a bit special—three members, including Ted, are actually a family.

  In addition to Ted, who is a gunner, there is also his sister, Maxine, who is good at hunting horns, and their father, Miles, who is a light crossbow.

  Gordon was free today, so he had a table with them, drinking and chatting.

  Ma Kexin is a tall female hunter, over 180 centimeters tall, not inferior to most men.

  Gordon had a little impression of this huntress. At that time, Ohhura caught him drinking, and she was the first to speak out to tease Ohhura. The two seemed to be good friends.

  Myers is a gray-haired old hunter, estimated to be nearly sixty years old, and the oldest of all (active) hunters Gordon knows.

Extremely rich in hunting experience, a six-star light crossbowman, and once served as an instructor in the hunter training camp. Ohsura seems to have accepted his guidance back then, and Amos must respectfully call him "senior" when he comes. .

  I heard that this old man used to be a heavy crossbow envoy, but he was getting older and his physical strength had declined, so he replaced it with a lighter light crossbow.

  Currently in a semi-retired state, it has been many years since he took on a high-ranking task. It is only because he is worried about a pair of children with a strong personality that he has not retired.

   Regarding the fact that Gordon won Ted by arm wrestling, the happiest person is actually Ted's sister Maxine, or to be more accurate, it is just gloating.

   Let you brag all day long that you have the best wrists?

   Several people chatted and chatted, and they naturally talked about Gordon's previous mission to hunt the peach-haired beast king.

   "Oh? Brother Gordon, you said that Ushura finally got the green hair of the Peach-haired Beast King?" Maxine looked very surprised, and there was even a bit of regret in his tone.

  The fact that someone spent half a year hunting the seven-headed Peach-haired Beast King is almost becoming a stalk in the Minagarde Hunter's Gathering House.

   "It's gone now. It's a pity that there won't be a good topic to tease Ushula in the future." Maxin held his cheeks and said inappropriate words.

   Gordon: "."

   "The so-called luck is nothing but illusory things. As long as you work hard in the right direction, you will always gain something." The tone of the quiet old man Miles was light.

   As he spoke, he also took a sip from the cup, but the cup was filled with hot barley tea instead of ale. After taking a deep breath, the old man continued: "That child, finally didn't use the flame to flick the lock this time?"

   Gordon: "."

  Dare this old man have seen through everything long ago?

  Noticing Gordon's inexplicable expression, Miles glanced at him, "It seems that you discovered it, that kid Ushura has a good talent, but his temper is too impetuous and he doesn't like to use his brain.

Blaming everything on luck is the stupidest way of thinking. I wanted to take this opportunity to sharpen her temper. Forget it. With the accumulation of the past six months, she can become more or less calm, and the road ahead will be smoother. . "

  Gordon shrank his neck. Although he knew that Miles didn't mean to blame him, he still felt scared.

   "What? Isn't it because of luck?" Ted ran to change to a bigger wine glass and came back, touching his bald head, the surprise on his face was no less than Gordon's.

  The same goes for Maxine. Obviously, she didn't think about that.

  Gordon noticed that Miles' expression became constipated for a moment.

   Miles does have a headache.

The eldest son is a reckless man who only knows how to rush forward. Fortunately, as a gunsmith, it is not a big problem to do so. The daughter seems to be a bit dark-bellied and likes to tease people, but in fact her heart is not much more than her brother's .

  When will I grow up?

  Gordon drank a sip of wine, looked at the three people with different expressions for a while, and suddenly said: "Master, do you want to absorb Ursula into your team and take your place?"

  Myers turned his gaze to Gordon, "Huh? Why do you think so?"

   "Since you know that Ohhura likes to lock the Peach-haired Beastmaster's head with flame bullets, you must have hunted the Peach-haired Beastmaster with her, and more than once, right?"

   "Well, the four of us hunted the two peach-haired beast kings together."

   "Since it is a fixed team and you are a light crossbow envoy yourself, it is very likely that you have cooperated with Osura, who is also a light crossbow envoy, for the purpose of assessment.

   Of course, there are other possibilities, so I asked to confirm. "

  Myers couldn't help flashing a hint of appreciation after hearing Gordon's words.

   What Gordon analyzed is not a complicated matter, but it at least proves that this is a thinking child.

  It’s much better than these two gadgets.

   "That's right, I'm getting older, so I want to find a companion who can replace my shooter."

  Gordon put down his wine glass, considered his words, and continued to speak: "You should have sent an invitation to her, but she was rejected?"

  Miles nodded his chin lightly. There was nothing to analyze about this point. Since Ohsura was not a member of their team at this time, the answer to this question was obvious.

   "She refused very decisively? Even a little bit resistant?"

   "Yes, she said that she will not consider these for the time being."

  ". Then have you ever wondered why Ursula rejected your invitation?"

   "Huh?" Miles turned his gaze to Gordon again.

   Of course he has considered this point, discordant personalities, lack of tacit understanding, overlapping members, and not used to forming a team, these are all possible.

   But regardless of the reason, such things as forming a team cannot be forced, so when he mentioned being rejected once, he didn't continue to pester him.

   "Then what, I'm just raising a possibility, which may be overlooked from your perspective and age." Gordon scratched the tip of his nose and said.

   "It's okay, go ahead, just chat." Myers spoke casually, but his eyes couldn't help showing a trace of curiosity.

  Ted and Maxine also looked over with great interest, wanting to hear what Gordon would say.

   "Look, your team is a family team with the name of the assembly, right? It should be quite rare for a family to form a team and no outsiders have ever joined."

  “.”

  Myers' face changed slightly, as if he realized something, but the Ted Maxine brothers and sisters still looked blank.

   "You invited Ohhura to join the family team, perhaps it was overly interpreted by her as you invited her to become a family. As for the way of becoming a family, er, daughter-in-law or something?"

   Ted: "?"

   Maxine: "!"

  Myers: "."
