I'm also desperate.
Chapter 397 The Price of Growth
Slowly pulling out the wooden stake, he turned over the Blood Hunter's corpse.
He saw the giant-headed Bloodhound pup, curled up and shivering, its eyes wide as it whimpered weakly, its short tail wagging rapidly.
The people nearby weren't surprised by this scene.
They had obviously discovered the giant-headed Bloodhound pup covered under the Blood Hunter's body long ago, and Jing Yan was sent to call for help because of this.
Lin Ling reached out and picked up the giant-headed Bloodhound pup. At this moment, he felt that this small life was like a continuation of the Blood Hunter's life.
Amidst the giant-headed Bloodhound pup's whimpering, Lin Ling gently soothed its emotions, then looked at the people around him.
"Who knows how to take care of this little guy?"
Guilie (strange beasts), unlike ordinary life, require professional care, and this is not Lin Ling's specialty.
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and finally all looked at Jing Yan at the door.
"Captain Lin, the Blood Hunter is dead, and the only hunter left among our survivors is... him."
Eh?
Eh, eh, eh, eh?
Jing Yan was immediately stunned.
He was just an emotionless camera, working as a hunter on the side.
You guys are treating me as a proper hunter??
"Okay, Little Blood Fights will be entrusted to you to raise and cultivate. Take good care of it, it's a guilie, and it's also a member of our Guyue Village!"
Lin Ling handed Little Blood Fights to Jing Yan, who had a bewildered expression, and then arranged for others to handle the Blood Hunter's corpse properly and take it to the temporary cemetery outside.
While everyone else was immersed in grief and busy, Jing Yan was completely dumbfounded.
After Fang Yue and others returned to the village, he had hoped that the Blood Hunter would send him a blood eagle, which was already a great luxury.
As a result, after the Wuyuzhu (Black Feather Clan) destroyed the village, he directly obtained the Blood Hunter's guilie, a giant-headed Bloodhound pup!
This, this, this, this, could it be that I am the legendary chosen one?
Jing Yan looked at Little Blood Fights sleeping peacefully in his arms, recalling the details of how the Blood Hunter usually took care of the previous big Blood Fights, and sighed dejectedly.
Although getting a guilie is great, he never learned how to take care of and train a guilie.
Being a hunter is not a simple job either.
Without professional skills and techniques, simply keeping a guilie alive is meaningless, and may even lead to being devoured by the master!
There are many twists and turns in this, but this is not something that a hunter apprentice like Jing Yan can come into contact with.
After thinking about it dejectedly for a while, Jing Yan threw this happy trouble to the back of his mind.
At worst, when he goes to Qingsi County, he will learn real skills from other hunters. Anyway, he will accept Little Blood Fights!
Pointing the camera at Little Blood Fights' sleeping posture, rotating it three hundred and sixty degrees, Jing Yan grinned foolishly.
He has new material for today, and the title will be: All hunter players, come and see, this is the first guilie pet baby that players have tamed!
Um… perfect!
In addition to the battle of Guyue Village he filmed yesterday. Although it's a bit unkind to say so, Jing Yan must say that he suddenly feels that life has inexplicably gotten better!
Continuing to follow behind Lin Ling with a happy skip in his step, Jing Yan filmed the scene while helping to work and collect supplies.
All of these scenes are the most direct material, and after editing them a bit later and adding some tragic music, he can post them on the forum.
Because he had previously uploaded the footage of the battle of Guyue Village to the forum, like a continuous drama, releasing a post-war tragic video can completely continue to reap traffic.
Sometimes, Jing Yan feels that he is a little too cold-blooded.
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that there was nothing wrong with it.
He's a player, what does he care if the village is destroyed or not, or if the NPCs are dead or not, as long as he's okay.
After a busy day, Jing Yan logged out of the game and opened the forum to take a look.
The video about the defense of Guyue Village, which was posted in the morning, has been topped to the throne of the first hottest topic.
Like screen-swiping replies, they appeared frantically.
For no other reason than the quality of the video being too high.
Although it was recorded intermittently from Jing Yan's perspective, the atmosphere of the entire village's life and death being threatened by the attack of the guiyi (strange beings) drove everyone's emotions.
From the attack on Guyue Village, to Ma Ling'er's fight with Fang Yue, to Elder Chen's suppression, and the intervention of Lord Han.
One grand scene after another, but in the end, it ended with a black screen amidst the fierce fighting sounds coming from inside the bone ball.
Everything ends here.
Jing Yan did not edit the subsequent scenes into the video.
Because it concerns Fang Yue's privacy, he is inconvenient to edit it in.
However, this is already enough.
Everyone was hooked. The discussion was so intense that it almost paralyzed the forum.
Because Fang Yue is the number one player.
Faced with such a terrifying enemy, they all wanted to know what Fang Yue's final outcome would be.
"Definitely dead! Absolutely dead! That guiyi is so ridiculously strong! [Night Color Dawn] is definitely no match!"
"Yes, yes! Look at that old man in green, he's only holding a wooden sword, he doesn't look like a strong person at all, I'm afraid Guyue Village has been destroyed by the guiyi."
"Not necessarily! The two of them can match each other, their strength shouldn't be too different. Let's wait for the next video content from [Scenery Rock Studio]."
The high level of popularity made Jing Yan smile.
After asking the post-production team to edit today's materials, Jing Yan showed the forum members the wreckage of the aftermath of that night's battle in Guyue Village, and in the video's finale, he focused on Lord Han, who was blinking his eyes and only had a head left, as if hinting that Lord Han had repelled the guiyi, but was also severely injured and only had a head left.
As for the situation of Fang Yue, which they cared about the most, Jing Yan sold a suspense—to be continued.
The hot-tempered brothers in the forum immediately cursed in their native languages, with Thai boxing warnings of physical harm.
Jing Yan closed the forum with peace of mind. Let them quarrel. The more they quarrel, the higher the popularity. More people will see and discuss his videos.
After saying hello to the people in the studio, Jing Yan went back online.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Lin Ling sitting next to him, teasing Little Blood Fights.
"Captain Lin."
Jing Yan greeted him. Lin Ling raised his eyelids, grunted, and then asked, "Have you fed it yet?"
"I went back to my master's house, and luckily, my master had already prepared a warehouse full of nutrients needed for Little Blood Fights' growth. Although the warehouse was destroyed, the remaining things are enough for Little Blood Fights to eat for a long time."
"Well, that's good... Jing Yan, cultivate Little Blood Fights well. One day, I want to see it bravely tear apart the guiyi, kill the Wuyuzhu, and avenge the Blood Hunter."
Lin Ling said something that made Jing Yan a little confused. It seemed that after last night, Lin Ling had become a lot more profound.
Just then, a person in the distance ran towards them in a hurry, shouting as he ran.
"Captain Lin! Captain Ye is awake! Captain Ye is awake!!"
