Login fifty-third time.

Zvand hunting guild. at that office.

"Hmm, that sounds difficult"

Mike, a brown-haired guild clerk with glasses, roars with his arms around him.

When I brought in the larvae I got from my last Giant Wasp hunt and asked if I could handle them in my guild, that was the word I returned.

"It sure is delicious. Though this place is close to Dorad, I never thought I'd get a taste similar to ocean delights in the woods. However, there is still an image of the appearance and the original material."

On the table are boiled larvae by size and very unwell, but with chrysanthemum soup. When I say soup, the texture is a thick stew if you don't dilute it. If you add meat or vegetables to this and simmer it, it will definitely be a fine stew. I look forward to making it any time soon.

I was surprised when I submitted this, but what I said without looking particularly frightened was that something like hunting guild officials.

"Again, will insect food be distant"

I wasn't particularly discouraged because I had predictions. Then I'll consume it myself, so no problem. Especially the chrysanthemum, which I don't really want to sell when I say it buys me out.

"Some of the small bugs are usually in circulation. So is the bee child of the tin bee. It's just that there's a small amount of it. There's not that much demand."

So the giant wasp larvae, too? If you prove you're not selling here, you can't complain if I take it all alone. I don't even want to pass on information to unspecified players because they might cut my share if I get caught. Oh, how humble I am...

"Just"

Mr. Mike's glasses glowed sparklingly.

"You want to buy it personally. Especially pupae. This is great."

Mr. Mike transferring his gaze to the chrysalis. If you did eat this, you'd want to eat it again. If you don't resist knowing who you are.

"At the moment, I can't buy much as an guild...... what do you do?

"Whatever the larvae are, if there's only one pupae"

"Can you sell one each, please?"

Larvae are divided into roughly four steps in size from birth to prepupae. After that, I looked it up, and they say the real tin bees peel off a few times when they're larvae, so I guess the size varies with the number of peels.

"Bring it in. I hope it doesn't spread too much, especially the chrysalis."

"Even if you hear it's delicious, you'll be fine because there will be a handful of people who want to eat it on purpose. The only person who tries to eat at first sight is someone like me who's fine with eating getty things."

Mr. Mike laughed niggly.

Try to locate the bulletin board in the guild. This is what I'm posting requests from individuals. Some of these items have a higher asking price than the Guild's buying price. I don't have to wonder if that's okay, but they say it's fine unless it significantly disrupts distribution by the guild. And not so many in themselves. That's about half the direct request from the guild.

Especially rare prey and undistributed prey. There are many patterns in which requests are made this way. I've been trying to find out if there are any Giant Wasp larvae, but naturally the result is zero. I guess that means no one bothers to eat bugs because the ingredients are well distributed for what they are.

I've had a lot of other requests, but it all looks like animals I've never eaten. If you ever get a chance to hunt, stop taking requests because you'll eat them yourself first. Besides, even normal prey has quite a bit of fruit due to its [dismantling] effect. I'll have to save some money for the house and land I'll get sooner or later, but I don't need to jump on expensive requests now either.

Speaking of expensive, I was surprised that Mike gave 10,000 pedia to the chrysalis. It's 100,000 yen. What kind of luxury ingredients? This could be more expensive if it spreads.

Well, nothing personal or guild. Do you suppose to encourage hunting as you wish today? Let's go to the North Forest.

"Ah, Mr. Fist, were you still there!

As he was headed to the entrance to exit the guild, a voice came from behind him. It's Mike.

"No more chrysalis, right?

"Do something there... not! Mr. Fist, do you have any special plans or anything after this?

I'm going to ask you with some serious look, Mr. Mike. Is something wrong?

"No, nothing. I was just thinking about going into the North Forest."

"Really? I'm sorry, could you help me?

"Depending on the content, what happened?

"There's a cactus."

That's what Mr. Mike complains about with a serious face. Cactus?

"Is a cactus that cactus in a plant?

"That's right. We have a sighting of a Chiswi cactus."

What, you're a cactus with a noisy feeling from the name. I'll try to be aware of [plant knowledge] what kind of guy he is.

○ Chiswi Cactus

Cactus wandering in search of prey. Usually it is simulated in the figure of a pillar cactus, but when the prey approaches, it strikes. The whole body is sharp and stiff. Some lizards have a paralytic effect. It has one big lizard built into the interior of the trunk that sticks it up to the prey and sucks blood. The blood-sucking Chiswi cactus stains red.

It is not suitable for consumption because of its hallucinogenic effects, but it has also been confirmed to be effective.

"... Is Chiswi Cactus a Warcraft?

"No, it's a plant. Blood-sucking plants. Plants with demonic nuclei are treated like warcraft, but Chiswi cactus do not have demonic nuclei"

There are so many bug plants. Wouldn't it be surprising if there were plants that attacked people on GAOs of different world fantasy systems?

"So, that cactus, is it troublesome?

I know it must be troublesome, to observe from where the hunting guild officials were in a hurry.

"He was a pretty quick guy. He looks like a regular cactus, but when his prey gets in time, he approaches at once and bustles a paralyzed lizard first. Where the movement is sealed, it is busli with a toge for bloodsucking. I don't care if it's a little guy, but this time it's like a guy with a big human season."

I can tell from what Mike said that he's a pretty nasty cactus. The figure floating in the back of my brain came out on an RPG, a communal cactus flying a thousand needles though. This guy's not gonna jump a needle, is he?

"Fortunately, the human victims haven't answered yet because there have been sightings in the wilderness on the south side of the city, but we can't leave them... Mr. Fist is where I was thinking of making a crusade request"

Mike had the same thing on his hand as the requisition slip on the bulletin board. Hmmm...... you're a little interested. Plus, a paralyzed lizard could be an effective item for hunting.

"Mr. Mike, can I take that?

The south side of Zvand is a wilderness. It is not particularly recognizable as a hunting ground because it is not inhabited by mesmerizing animals either. It's not that I don't have prey like rats and lizards, but it's not very big. There's a lot of lumps on top, and it's less popular with players. It's the prey that comes at us that's popular. They don't want to do the hassle of chasing and ambushing.

If it's a normal game, a monster is what strikes a player. Seems like some of them don't escape unless they attack. But GAO is that the guy who runs usually runs away, so he needs ideas.

In my case, if I was dealing with the prey of that hand, I approached it with [concealment] and took a method of stopping it at once. Since Quinn arrived, I've had more of her kick out her prey, though. Honestly, Quinn has better skills when it comes to hunting. Manoeuvre to catch up with fleeing prey and attack to ensure that he is stopped. As long as I envy you.

Anyway, go wilderness with Quinn. I can barely see the player. The exception is a production-based player who would be coming to collect. I guess some people are stretching their legs over there because they seem to get some greener if they go through the wilderness. Few animals come at us.

I go along the wilderness while I collect too. There are roots of plants that can be used as antipyretics. You won't take it yourself, but it will be an ingredient for medicines for residents.

Cactus grows potatoes, about two to three meters of columnar cactus. You look familiar coming out of a western play or something. [Botanical Knowledge] Then the name also comes out in pillar cactus as is. Is something like this moving and attacking me? Besides, it's a hassle because I usually say it's a pseudo. But if you have [plant knowledge], you just have to check every bottle. You won't be the first to take an unintended hit. Fortunately, everything around here wasn't normal - it was mixed.

I can't tell the difference from the other cactus to stare at. Unlike that one, I don't even have eyes or mouth like a wheel, so I don't even know if I'm looking at this one.

"Hmm..."

Pick up the big Kobuki stone that is falling at your feet and throw it with [Magic Strike]. The stone that hit me pierced the chiswi cactus. The defense doesn't seem very hard. Besides, he didn't take any evasive action, and even though he was damaged, he doesn't look like he's moving.

Pick up another stone and throw as well. This time it will not be dodged again, blowing up near the pierced spot earlier. So you couldn't keep your balance, or the chiswi cactus broke and fell to the ground. Oh, that was pretty warm, huh? I thought it would be more tricky.

Stay alert and close, I'll observe, but there's no response. I guess I can take it down with this. If you don't realize it, it may be a threat, but if you know who you are in [plant knowledge], you mean you can easily win an attack from a distance?

Now, the toge meant to be a needle, but the needle grows sparsely between 5cm and 10cm or so. If you pull one out, it's definitely stiff. The force is moderately supple and will not break. I went through my clothes to try it or stab it and it went through lightly like a regular needle.

Toge soon found out that he had paralysis poison. In the hand part where humans say, there is a different toge than the others. It is more than 10 cm long and has a thickness of 1 cm at the root. Does this contain a paralysis component in the beard? Or like a bee, is it the type to inject paralysis poison? Should I just take my whole body home as proof of my crusade?

I've heard of cactus steaks and stuff in real life, but I guess this guy is dangerous because he seems hallucinogenic. I'm not going to die because it also has a pharmaceutical ingredient... is it like peyote? Wait? If you treat me like a drug... no, no, how about that?

Throw it into storage and complete the mission. It wasn't too bad, but it didn't do any harm, so let's do it.

Well, it was time for me to go home. There was a voice that reached my ear from afar. Screaming.

I look at you but I don't see anything. No, it's pretty far. [Farsightedness] was used to confirm its appearance. You're a human man. It's the Chiswi Cactus that's attacking the man. Are you still here?

Why is Savo Oender here? From what I heard, that looks like a player.

Chisui Cactus rolled out his arms - not, should I say branches - towards the man. It was pointing at his face. The man takes it as a hand shelter. But that's bad. After several attacks, the man's movements became dull, unbalanced and crawling on all fours. I guess the lizard stabbed me and the paralysis poison turned. We won't be able to rescue him in time. It's a flimsy way to put it, but I think it was good in the players.

Well, the Chiswi Cactus approached the fallen man.

"Yes......?

To the sight, I doubted my eyes. That's kind of a thick lizard, that's what I meant. Yeah, that's good. That's okay. But what do you mean, the groin part where it comes out? The toge is white, thick, and sharp. Quite a fine lady.

Chisui Cactus fixes the man's lower back area with a branch. And

"Ahh..."

Were you able to speak up even if you were paralyzed? The moment he was stabbed in the toge, a man's scream echoed in the wilderness. That's it if you look at it in the distance. A guy who gets dug by a cactus, like... doesn't look like a critical part in position, but I guess it would be any consolation for those who get fucked...

Chisui Cactus does not move as it is. Now I was waving my back and I suspected the malice of the operation. No, even at this point I'd say it's pretty arry, but the posture is coincidental, so I can't help it.

Chisui Cactus gradually changes color. I could see the bright yellow greens staining red. The man broke and scattered after a while. Is that look colored by despair because of the pain or because of the humiliation...

Chisui Cactus pulled the toge in on the spot as if nothing had happened and moved to the pseudo-mode of upright immobilization. Because the player is dead or the color is back before he breathes blood too.

Do you want to take him down and then go back? If you have a lot of people, you'll need manpower.

"Work, work,"

While picking up an affordable stone, I walked towards the Chiswi Cactus.
