Chapter 46: Hunting the Beast

The task assigner continued: "C-level hunting mission, within three days of receiving the task, hunt four large beasts near the second forest guarding point, with no limit to types, and a reward of 42,000 taels. ”

"Do you accept it?"

Mumu Nagaye nodded: "Accept." ”

The task dispatcher records and seals, and the procedures are completed quickly.

After receiving the task, the four of them discussed it for a while and decided to hunt again tomorrow, and then they went home separately.

The next morning, the ninth group gathered at the east gate of the village and went directly to the outside of the village.

On the way, Kime Nagaye said, "Konoha Village is located in a vast mountain forest, and there are a large number of wild beasts around it, so the village often sends people to clean up the vicinity so that the habitat of wild beasts is not too close to the village. ”

"This kind of beast hunting mission is also one of the few C-level missions that requires combat."

"Teacher, what is the forest guard?" Ebisu asked.

"The forest guard point is a post set up around the village, responsible for guarding, forest management and wildlife cleanup, we hunt wild beasts, and we need to hand over the corpses to them to complete the task."

Saying that, Mumu Nagaye smiled: "It's a very interesting B-level mission to be on duty at the forest guarding point, there is game every day, you can try it when you have the opportunity in the future." ”

At this time, he asked, "The mission says that you want to hunt 'large beasts', what is the definition of 'large beasts'?" ”

"This ...... There is no strict definition. Generally speaking, beasts that can pose a threat to the lives of ordinary people are basically considered large beasts. For example, tigers, wolves, pythons, bears, leopards, etc. Kime Nagaye explained.

Senkai Genma nodded.

The four of them walked out of the east gate and walked all the way, and after a short time came to the second forest guard point located in the northeast of the village.

On duty at the forest guard point was a team of four, all of them were shinobi, and Kime Nagaye handed them the documents from the task assignment office, and took the three of them to a nearby clearing.

"Assign it, I'm in a group with Shou, I'm the team leader, Genma and Kai are in a group, and Genma is the team leader." Mume Nagaye said.

"The two teams each hunted one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and completed the task in one day."

Akai hesitated for a moment: "Teacher, it's not difficult to hunt beasts, one head for each of the four people, it should be completed in the morning." ”

"You're thinking too simply." Kime Nagaye shook his head, "Indeed, to ninjas, the vast majority of beasts are no threat. But in this vast mountain forest, there are also some extremely fierce beasts, which can kill ninjas. ”

"If you encounter this kind of beast, if you are unlucky, you may not even have a corpse left."

He then laughed again: "But this is a small probability event, and it is not usually encountered." After all, the unusually ferocious beasts were either barbecued by the duty team at the forest guard or driven to the forest of death to the north. ”

"Alright, let's get started."

"Yes."

Kime Nagaye immediately led Ebisu away, and the two groups acted separately.

Akai took out the nunchucks on his waist, waved them hehe, and said excitedly: "Xuanjian, where are we going?" ”

I don't know that Huo Genma looked around, and then raised his hand and pointed: "It's there." ”

The two of them immediately walked left and right, sometimes looking around, searching for the beasts of the woods.

About half an hour later, a low, heavy roar came from not far away, and Akai's eyes lit up, and he waved his nunchuck.

I didn't know that Huo Genma also pulled out the long knife on his waist and touched it in the direction from which the voice came.

Now that he was in the forest, and Mumu Nagaye was not around, he didn't dare to set fire to it casually, after all, once there was a fire, he and Akai would not be able to extinguish the fire.

The two of them were armed with weapons, and soon saw a large black bear slowly walking through the forest.

"Bear."

Akai glanced at Shiranui Genma: "I'm on." ”

I don't know Huo Xuanma hesitated for a moment, and then nodded: "Together." ”

He didn't have any idea about the beasts of this world, but physically, the beasts of this world were much more fierce than humans. The combat power must not be bad, and it is safer for the two to go together.

"Up!"

As soon as Huo Xuanma's words fell, Akai jumped up with a scream, and slammed his nunchucks into the black bear's back.

I don't know that Huo Genma also followed, and Yinfeng slashed with a sword!

A few seconds passed.

Looking at the motionless black bear in front of him, he kicked it with his toes again, and both of them couldn't help but show a little disappointment on their faces.

"It's so easy to die." Akai put away his nunchuck.

"What shall we do now?"

I don't know Huo Xuanma put away the long knife and sighed slightly: "Drag the corpse back to the forest guarding point." ”

Only now did he realize that the most troublesome task of hunting the beast was not the hunting of the beast itself, but the need to bring the beast's corpse back to the forest guard.

This more than half an hour away, and the terrain of mountains and forests, is really not easy to drag a few hundred catties of things.

The two of them immediately dragged a bear leg and dragged them to the forest guarding point.

Nearly an hour later, the two of them saw Kime Nagaye, Ebisu, and a tiger carcass in front of them at the forest guard.

"Well done." Mumu Nagaye said with a smile.

The two beast corpses were handed over to the middle ninja on duty, and at noon, the ninth group was disbanded and rested, and in the afternoon, the four of them came to the second forest guard point again to continue the hunting mission.

This time, Ignorant Fire Genma and Akai searched for a long time, and finally came to a river.

"Snake!"

Looking at the thick snake shadow entrenched under the water, the two of them were a little confused.

"This snake is not easy to fight underwater, why don't we change it?" Akai said.

I don't know that Huo Xuanma pondered for a moment, and then looked around: "I'll use the fire to escape, and see if I can drive it out." ”

As he spoke, he stepped back slightly, and his hands quickly sealed.

巳-未-申-海-午-寅!

Fire Escape: Howe Fireball Technique!

Flames erupted from his mouth and turned into a ball of fire, heading towards the river.

"Boom-"

Under the intense heat, large areas of water vapor evaporated and the river surged.

Enraged, the serpent immediately got up from the water and made a splash.

As a result, it collided with the flames, hissed in pain, and was ready to retract into the water in a blink of an eye.

I don't know that the fireball quickly dispersed in the fire genma.

Akai was about to make a move, but when the python got up, a light red object of unknown origin took advantage of the raised water and smashed into his face unexpectedly.

Arcade was in a hurry.

After this delay, the python had already retracted into the water and was about to slip away, but seeing this, he hurriedly sealed it again.

Fire Escape: Dragon Fire Technique!

A straight pillar of fire poured out of his mouth and rushed straight to the python at the bottom of the water!
