Lord of the Star Ocean
Chapter Thirteen Hunting in the Wild
All the way to the north, the hunting team quickly left Nanyuan City far behind.
The road gradually became rough, and the terrain gradually increased. The surrounding area was no longer a wide and flat field, but a large area of jungle occupied the sight, and half-person-high vines could be seen everywhere, and they encroached on the roadbed recklessly without anyone cleaning it up.
In the distance, majestic mountains stretch across the sky, awe-inspiring.
The team consisting of ten hunters and newcomer Nie Feng walked quickly on the path covered with weeds, and swung a few pathfinding poles horizontally, startling the insects, snakes, rats and ants hiding in the grass from time to time.
The hunting team led by Zhang Shixiong is well-known in Nanyuan City. The members of the team are all veterans. Of course, they know very well how to protect their own safety in the wild area and find suitable prey.
In order to take care of Nie Feng, the honest and straightforward old Chen deliberately stayed behind and took him along so as not to fall behind.
At the same time, he also told Nie Feng some experience and common sense that he must master when hunting in the wild.
This place was already on the edge of the wild land, and ordinary farmers would not come here unless they had special reasons. Apart from the threat of wild beasts, the most terrifying thing was getting lost.
The weather in Haoyuanxing is changeable, and the surrounding area of Nanyuan City is even more unpredictable. In the morning, the sky is still clear, but at noon, it may rain cats and dogs, and at night, it may be filled with fog.
The special environment makes the wild a dangerous place. Many wild plants grow extremely fast. The road stepped on today will be covered by weeds and vines tomorrow. Only experienced hunters and wild beasts can find the right path.
Once an inexperienced person like Nie Feng left the team, he would easily get lost in the forest, unable to find his way home, and would either be devoured by wild beasts or starve to death.
When the hunting team went into and out of the forest, they could occasionally find bones and remains of the victims hidden in the dead leaves. Some remains died nearby even though they were very close to a safe road.
In fact, Lao Chen didn't know that Nie Feng only had much more experience in living in the wild than him.
Back then, Nie Feng lived alone in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest for half a year, and he was not afraid of losing his way at all.
Even so, Nie Feng still humbly listened to the experiences that Old Chen told him, because this is not the earth, not any region he is familiar with, and it is only beneficial to know more about the situation.
Especially Lao Chen's introduction to wild beasts.
One of the common characteristics of wild stars is that they have a large number of various lives, which are roughly divided into two categories: wild beasts and wild beasts. They are divided into ranks one to nine according to their strength, and the higher the rank, the stronger they are.
Among them, the savage beasts are mainly tigers, lions, wolves, bears, leopards, pythons, eagles and other carnivorous beasts. They are violent, bloodthirsty and aggressive, have a strong concept of territory, and often actively attack foreign immigrants and pioneers.
As for wild beasts, elephants, cows, horses, deer, sheep, rabbits, etc. are mostly herbivorous beasts. They are relatively mild-tempered and many of them can be tamed and used, but they will also explode into powerful fighting power after being provoked.
Whether it is a wild beast or a wild beast, they can grow themselves by absorbing star energy, and condense energy cores in their bodies to possess special abilities. High-level wild beasts can even rival high-level star fighters who have been blessed with star power armor. They are by no means easily provoked.
In addition to wild beasts and other creatures, some wild stars also have mysterious ghosts. No one knows how ghosts are produced, but ghosts are undoubtedly the source of many ghost stories in the folk.
The hunting team that Lao Chen belonged to was made up of ordinary people. Although everyone practiced martial arts, they were not capable of defeating a low-level savage beast. Therefore, the main targets of hunting were small beasts, birds and rabbits, and a few first-level wild beasts with little combat power.
The place they are going today is a river valley in the mountains, where flocks of one-horned yellow sheep often appear.
For Nie Feng, who joined the hunting team for the first time, he followed the team to hunt the gazelle today, just as a bystander, and finally took the lead, mainly to gain knowledge and experience.
As long as you are familiar with the team and your performance can be recognized by everyone, then it is possible to participate in real hunting operations and get your own share of spoils.
In other words, he is now an apprentice hunter.
Uncle Chen treated Nie Feng with good intentions, no doubt he was worried that Nie Feng would become a burden to the team if he was young and aggressive, and even harmed the entire team.
The reason why Captain Zhang Shixiong was reluctant to join Nie Feng was precisely because of this concern.
There is more than one example of a novice killing a hunting team!
Nie Feng firmly remembered Uncle Chen's words in his heart.
In this team, only this uncle really cared about him and took care of him. Although many things he said were of no use to Nie Feng, they still moved him.
During this process, the captain Zhang Shixiong has been watching with cold eyes, neither helping nor discouraging.
But along the way, his impression of Nie Feng has changed slightly, because Nie Feng has been closely following the team, and he has not been slowed down after walking for dozens of miles, let alone complaining about being tired. His physical fitness and attitude are good.
The hunting team set off from Nanyuan City in the morning and did not approach their destination until noon.
Apart from the long distance, the main reason is that after entering the mountain, the mountain road is too difficult to walk. It is all up to the two hunters walking in front to alternately use hunting knives to open the way, otherwise it will be difficult to walk under the barriers of trees, vines and grasses.
Any hunting team that does not have star fighters in command will absolutely not dare to camp in the wilderness, so the hunting team that Nie Feng is in will return in the afternoon, and there is actually not much hunting time left for them.
Finding suitable prey in a limited time, and being able to achieve something, so that the team will not return empty-handed, is undoubtedly a test for the leader of the hunting team!
Although Zhang Shixiong's temper is irritable, his experience is very experienced. Before reaching the valley, the hunting team has already harvested three hares and two pheasants.
The prey in the mountains is very rich. Apart from wild beasts, there are also small beasts. These hares and pheasants actually have the potential to become wild beasts. They are like ordinary people who have not realized the power of stars.
If you can't become a higher-level existence, you will inevitably become the weak flesh of the strong eater!
Whoosh!
A feathered arrow was shot out through the air, passing dozens of steps in an instant, and accurately hit a pheasant hiding in the bushes. Immediately, blood burst out, and a sharp cry suddenly sounded.
"good!"
Several companions cheered loudly, which made the hunter holding the bow very proud.
This arrow was really beautiful. The most rare thing was that he found the hidden pheasant at the first time, and he shot very decisively and sharply. He easily captured another prey, which boosted the morale of the hunting team again.
Although a mosquito is small, it is still meat, let alone a pheasant.
Nie Feng witnessed the whole scene of the other party shooting and killing the prey, and nodded secretly.
If it was a life-and-death fight, he was sure to finish the hunter within one or two moves, but in terms of hunting experience and archery skills, he was not much better than the opponent, or even worse.
Nie Feng took off the hunting bow he carried with him, eager to try it.
This hunting bow is a relic left by his predecessor's elder brother. Although it is a bit old, it is still in good condition.
It's just that I don't know if it can be used to deal with wild beasts, even the lowest level.
To be honest, Nie Feng doesn't like prey like pheasants and hares at all. He desperately needs energy cores to improve his strength, and energy cores can only be collected from wild beasts.
"alright…"
Zhang Shixiong said in a deep voice: "There is no need to kill these small prey, so as not to waste time, the front is here."
The main purpose of hunting the small animals encountered on the way is to warm up the hunting team and improve the morale of the hunters. If you spend precious time on these pheasants and hares and miss the most important prey, it will not be worth the candle.
In fact, without his reminding, everyone including Nie Feng heard the rumbling sound from ahead.
