Chapter 12 I’m going to eat pork chop, meow
Encountering a terrifying human craftsman, Ellu thought it would be better to find a kinder person to ask for directions.
Looking around, it finally settled on the skinny old dragon man.
Compared to tall humans, this old man who is not much taller than me and has so many wrinkles that his eyes are covered looks more friendly.
“Old man, may I ask, meow, is this Kokot Village, meow?” The experience just now left Ai Lu with lingering fears, and her voice was still trembling a little.
"Hmm? What do you think?" The village chief, who seemed to be suffering from Alzheimer's disease, tilted his head and asked.
ˆ “.”
Facing the old man's kind smile, Ellu felt like she was about to cry.
Father, meow! Do you have to practice in this place? ! Humans are so scary, meow! Dragon people are so strange, meow!
In the end, an enthusiastic lady passing by came to the rescue of the bewildered Ellu.
After hearing that it came specifically to find "a hunter named Gordon", he took it to the training ground.
After arriving at the training ground, Ellu bowed deeply to express her gratitude to the kind aunt who turned around and left. Her impression of human beings suddenly changed a lot.
Hearing that someone came specifically to see him, Gordon temporarily stopped training and walked over to this side while wiping his sweat with a towel.
Obviously, he did not expect that the "person" who came was an Elu cat, and his expression couldn't help but become a little surprised.
“Well, hello, I’m Gordon, who are you?”
“Hello, Mr. Gordon! My name is Zhupa Meow. My father asked me to come down to Kokot Village to find you. I hope you can allow me to practice with you, Meow!”
Elu, named Pig Chop, worked hard to puff up her chest, trying to make herself look taller and stronger.
The slightly trembling beard and straightened tail revealed its inner nervousness. Saying these words in one breath was a big test for the timid one.
The overly formal grammar, the slightly weird title, and the very distinctive name "Pork Chop" brought Gordon's memory back to two weeks ago.
“Your father, is he a steak?” Although he had already determined it in his mind, Gordon still thought it would be better to confirm it again.
“Yes, Meow, I am the eldest son of Beefsteak, Meow!”
Pork Chop waved his little paws to strengthen his tone, his round eyes full of admiration, "Father said, Mr. Gordon is a brave and powerful hunter, meow!"
"Well, just call me Gordon. I'm not a great big shot. I'm far from powerful or anything like that. You don't need to use honorifics." Gordon scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
“But Father said that humans pay great attention to etiquette, nya?”
"That's true, but I'm not your elder, so just use the title of your elder." Gordon explained.
“Okay Gordon.”
Pork Chop's ears twitched, "But I think it's very strange, meow! Let me call you Lord Gordon, meow!"
“We’ll talk about this later.”
Rubbing his forehead, Gordon found that it was not easy to change Pork Chop’s language habits all of a sudden, so he changed the topic to more important things.
Beef Poker saved his life, so he should return the favor. Now that Niu Po Po’s child is coming to visit him, he will definitely not refuse anything that he can do to help.
“What did your father mean when he said he wanted you to practice with me?”
“I’m asking you to sign a contract with Lord Gordon and become Lord Gordon’s hunting cat!”
Gordon was stunned when he heard this.
The so-called hunting cats are El cats that partner with hunters, go to hunting grounds to hunt monsters, and provide various supports to hunters.
In the hunting grounds, hunting cats can provide various supports to hunters, and the method of support is related to Ellu’s specialties.
For example, some Ellu are good at melee combat, and such hunting cats will always fight side by side with hunters on the front line; some Ellu are good at using hunting props, and will lay traps and bombs when monsters inadvertently create opportunities for hunters; They are good at playing, and they can play some kind of unique flute music to stimulate the hunter's fighting spirit and potential.
In addition to their specialties, the personality of hunting cats will also have a great impact on their behavior.
Guys with a reckless personality will often attack monsters at all costs, while pacifists who love gathering may run aside to pick mushrooms during the battle.
However, in the final analysis, what really directly determines the ability of hunting cats is their experience and tacit understanding with their partner hunters.
If the relationship between the two parties is close enough, the hunting cat will even bravely blow the horn when its owner is in danger of being chased by a monster, attracting the monster's attention, and risking his life to cover his owner's retreat.
No matter what the method is, it is certain that hunting cats can help hunters.
Can a child who accepts a steak as a hunting cat return a favor? This is obviously a big gift package, right?
Gordon knelt down and looked directly into Zhupa’s eyes, “If you don’t consider your father’s opinion, what do you think of Zhupa?
To be honest, I am just a novice who has just become a one-star hunter. In comparison, going to Xiuret City to find those experienced hunters is a better choice, right? "
Pork Chop stretched out his paws, scratched his pointed ears, and said with admiration: "Master Gordon is a very powerful hunter! This is the cat I saw with my own eyes!"
"Saw it with my eyes?"
“Yes, meow! I was collecting in the forest that day and heard the sound of fighting. After sneaking closer, I saw with my own eyes that Lord Gordon used the fangs of the big wild boar king to knock the big wild boar king to death, meow!
One day, Lord Gordon will definitely become the legendary hunter’s meow! To follow Master Gordon in practice is not only my father’s suggestion, but also my wish, meow! "
Gordon was speechless.
Since the other party has said so, refusing again would not be polite, but pretentious.
He smiled and stretched out his hand, holding Pig Chop's small paws, "Then let's become stronger together. Please give me more advice in the future, Pig Chop."
"Meow!"
Seeing Gordon agreed, Pork Chop carefully took out a carefully tied roll of parchment from his luggage.
This is El Cat's contract.
Gordon took the contract without hesitation, and after briefly browsing it, he bit his thumb and left a **** fingerprint symbolizing "promise" on it.
The same goes for pork chops. Use the tip of a cat pick to pierce the meat pad, leaving small claw marks on the contract.
From then on, they were partners in life and death.
“Let’s go, Pork Chop, follow me home. Let’s have a big meal today to celebrate!”
Gordon grabbed the package of Pork Chop and put it on his shoulder. He rubbed Pork Chop's furry little head with his other hand and said with a smile.
After carefully putting away the contract, Pig Chop twisted a bit, and finally jumped and pulled it onto Gordon's back.
This is one of the ways that Ellu express their closeness and trust.
“Uh, how much do you weigh, Pork Chop?” Gordon pretended to scream and joked evilly.
The hair on the back of Pork Chop exploded, "No, meow! I only have twenty kilograms, which is a standard weight, meow! Although I eat a lot, I always exercise well, meow!"
“Ha, you have to eat more in a while. Tomorrow’s training will not be easy.”
“No problem, meow!”
“How about having fried pork chop for dinner? I have some nice big wild boar meat at home.”
“.Although it sounds a little strange, I’m really looking forward to it, nya!”
