Volume 1 Elbaf, the Land of Giants Chapter 8 Jungle Overlord ~ Uh-huh, King Kong?
After the meal, the giants who participated in the hunting party were arranged to assemble at the thatched field.
The left-behind team, led by the clan elders, prepared to clean up the food and tableware after the banquet.
When Serge and the others came to the chapel, the king was already standing on the high platform
Serge saw the giant next to him sitting cross-legged in the audience, staring at the king
In that case, let's do as the locals do! Searle led the young people involved in the winter hunt to sit cross-legged in the audience and listen carefully to the king's account of the arrangements for the hunt.
After the narration, everyone took their luggage and equipment and set out to hunt under the leadership of the king.
……
The group loaded their equipment onto the pirate ship, which was provided by the former Giant Pirate crew member Seps. It was late afternoon when we left Elbaf.
After a night of sailing, we finally arrived at our destination ~ Most Island.
Most, derived from monster, means monster. Due to the extremely large animals on this island, they are strong in battle, just like monsters. Hence the name Moster Island.
When the ship docked, the king ordered the people to pack their daily necessities into their bags. After that, we followed the marks made in previous years and came to a certain green space.
"Now take out all the food, and when you're full, it's time to work." The king shouted to everyone in a fit of rage.
Maybe the timing of the opening is incorrect, is this the king or the contractor
After a period of trimming. Serge is also adjusting to his best form, and it could be a tough battle ahead.
As in previous years, the plan is to have adult giants dispatch to "clean" or drive away the over-standard monsters around the green space! to prevent them from harming young people. After all, in terms of the strength of young people, in the face of some over-standard giant beasts, it is simply to deliver food.
The young people stayed quietly in the green space, waiting for orders.
After about three or four days, the adult giants returned with the prey they had successfully hunted, which meant that the young people were free to hunt. It's time to get out of camp!
Under the king's gaze, the young men stepped out of the camp and onto the path of battle.
This year, there are a total of 63 giants participating in the hunting team, including 46 adult warriors and 17 young people, which seems to be a lot more young than in previous years.
Maybe it's influenced by Searle! Young people as a whole are much more diligent than they used to be.
The strength can be regarded as the strongest in the past!
Almost all of the young people who came out this time were old friends of Searle. The most powerful people are, Ser, Herding, Salon, John, Rakval, Lonz, Myra, Haydn, and Mirien.
By the way, Miriam is the only woman among the young people, she is still Melinda's disciple, she is tall, but she is not as thick as Aunt Melinda, but inadvertently shows the slenderness of women, with conspicuous white hair and a beautiful face, but it is said that she is the favorite of normal men. The only downside is that she seems to be a facial paralyzed, and in general Milion is indeed a beautiful giantess.
Over the years, Serge has spoken no more than ten words to her, and the two are quite wrong, which may have something to do with Melinda's frequent praise of Serre in front of Mirien!
Like you would be friends with the other person's child that your parents say you are? The probability is too small!
Straight to the point.
According to the rules, young people are not allowed to move in groups, and only those who catch the target alone are qualified, so everyone disperses as soon as they leave the camp to find their favorite prey. However, in order to qualify, the body of the prey must be more than 12 meters.
Well, the standard for prey is twelve meters, and reaching the standard means that the trial is passed, which is equivalent to obtaining the qualification of adulthood.
Such a trial is not too simple, and Serre could have done it two years ago.
"I wish you success" The young people encouraged each other and dispersed.
Serge walked alone after leaving the army, and the animals did see a lot. But there doesn't seem to be a single one that can really be linked to the beast.
Finally, I heard the cry of a beast of prey. Well, a cheetah that is less than two meters.
The cheetah heard Serge's footsteps and was ready to pounce on the prey with his most ferocious posture, so that the prey could know what a real beast was.
Nearly 5 meters tall Dessell appeared.
Cheetah: "??? ”
I'm afraid you're not a dummy, why are you so tall!!
The cheetah, which hurriedly stopped its movements, let out a whining sound and sped into the bushes.
Searle couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
Serge grumbled irritably: "If this continues, I won't go back empty-handed!" It must be these hateful adults who have made up all the beasts that meet the standards. They deliberately wanted me to be unqualified! ”
"No, we have to refuel this time. Gabad! Serge cheered himself up. Continue your journey deeper into the forest.
Well, this is beyond the safe zone that the king has given to the young people. A safe zone is an area that is signposted and does not pose a threat to the lives of young people!
In this area, even if you encounter some kind of powerful beast, it doesn't matter if you can't beat it, you can still escape. As for going beyond the safe zone...
……
In the depths of the dense forest, a beast roar was heard from time to time.
"Falling Star" Selgao jumped high, using the impact of falling from a great height, combined with his own attack, to beat the giant crocodile in front of him into a pulp with one punch.
"Well, that's about the right size. Unfortunately, it wasn't shocking enough, and they had to take out a bigger beast to surprise them when the time came. Searle jumped out of the dent in the crocodile's corpse and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead.
Since Searle stepped into the safe zone, he has encountered many fierce beasts, and there are more than a dozen of them just to meet the size standard. But Searle wasn't satisfied, these guys might be strong enough for other young people, but compared to themselves, they weren't challenging at all.
Searle had a hunch that this might be a good opportunity for him to break through the bottleneck. A month ago, Searle had discovered that no matter how hard he practiced, his strength seemed to have reached the limit of his current body, and his growth was extremely slow, and he could not compare with his previous speed at all.
Searle lacked a suitable opponent, the kind of life-and-death contest.
……
It's the third day of Searle's journey into the jungle, and he has gone through battles and killed more than double digits of prey, but Searle is not satisfied.
The king gave them 5 days to go hunting. Just wait until the fifth day, whether you can catch it or not. All children must return to camp. If you do not return for more than 5 days, you will be disqualified directly.
Serge looked at the prey under his feet with some discouragement and thought: "I haven't encountered it in the first three days, and it seems that it is unlikely that I will encounter it in the future." It's a waste of time to wait, so it's better to go back to practice early! ”
Thinking clearly about what was at stake, Searle picked the two biggest of the many prey. Well, it's two, one for grades and one for eating!!
In search of suitable prey, Serge had not eaten for two or three days.
Searle used the tools he had to go to the river to handle his prey, took some water from the river, and set up the grill.
After a while, the meat was grilled! Searle tore off a leg from a roasted bear and began eating.
The barbecue doesn't taste very good because of the lack of seasonings, but now is not the time to think about whether it tastes good or not, and you can leave this hellish place when you are full and have the strength
Serge lay down on the ground contentedly and patted his bulging belly.
As for the rest of the bear meat???? Is there anything left? What kind of animal is this, the reincarnation of a hungry ghost!!
There were only bear bones left around the grill in front of him.
Serge stood up, carrying the corpse of another prey, and walked in the direction he remembered.
Since it has long been out of the safe zone divided by the king.
………
"What about Dekuya? (How could this be)" Serge ran around and found himself back where he had eaten.
That messy pile of bear bones is proof of that!!
Serge was a little unconvinced, and after re-marking it, he set off again!
……
After several attempts, Searle sat on the ground with his butt, and he, sure enough, got lost!!
Serge is really anxious this time, is he really going to be trapped on this desert island in the future?
"No, my life hasn't really started yet, how can it end like this?" Serge scrambled to himself, ready to try in the opposite direction.
……
"Ahhh Searle wanted to cry without tears, he knew that he should go back when he hunted the first qualified prey, why did he run so deep!!
Sure enough, if you don't die, you won't die!!
"Knock, knock"
In despair, Searle was lying on the ground waiting to die, when he heard an unknown sound coming from the ground, and he rolled over and stood up.
It's definitely the sound of a giant creature stepping on the ground.
"Could it be that everyone found out that I was missing and came to look for me?" As soon as Searle came up with this hypothesis, he immediately dismissed it. It's not even the fifth day! It's unlikely that anyone will find out they're missing.
Then there is only one possibility, a giant beast has come in front of you.
Listening to the sound of heavy footsteps, you can know that this is an absolutely strong big guy, and it is not the same as the guy he killed.
"Anyway, I'm lost now, if I can't find my way, I'll die sooner or later, maybe by fighting this guy, I can get stronger!" Serge was instantly ready for battle.
This time with all his might, Serge reached out and grabbed Jacouka behind his back.
Pull out the giant ruler at once, hold the handle with both hands, and point the ruler straight ahead at the same time!
The giant creature suddenly jumped from the sky, Searle's pupils suddenly contracted, and his body immediately reacted, doing a backflip behind him.
"Boom" was like an earthquake for a moment, and an indescribable creature landed right where Searle had been standing. It was evident that a hole had been trampled out of the ground about ten meters around the monster's feet. A spider's web-like rift appeared around the cavern, spreading into the distance in a circle.
After seeing the true face of this monster at this time, Serge's jaw was about to dislocate in shock.
"Isn't this TM King Kong?" Searle's eyes widened and he shouted in fear!!
