Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Normally, after the hunters anesthetized and captured the monster, they had to figure out a way to transport the monster out of the hunting ground.

This process is undoubtedly very troublesome, which is also the main reason why hunters are not often willing to do so, even though it is more beneficial to capture monsters.

but!

This time they had a "backstage". In order to see her lovely ornamental fish as soon as possible, the third princess actually sent a private team to wait near the hunter's camp.

Their only role or responsibility is to safely and quickly send the ornamental fish to the fish pond of the third princess after the hunter captures the lava dragon.

Anshir left the scorching cave to signal, and the pork chop that didn't want the meat pad to be cooked also ran out. Only Gordon, who seemed to have discovered something, walked around the rock wall of the narrow cave.

After sending out the signal flare, Anshir, who couldn't see the Gordons, returned to the scorching cave. Seeing the former lying on the rock wall and stroking something, he couldn't help saying: "What are you still doing here? Go out, the transport team wants to It won't be long before it's over."

Gordon didn't reply to Anshir's words, but said to himself: "Come and see, hey, Anshir, do you think the lines on the cave wall look like brick cracks?"

"Um?"

Anshir came over, observed the formation carefully, nodded his chin and said, "It's too neat, it really doesn't look like a naturally formed pattern, it should be a relic that hasn't been marked on the map."

"Why don't we dig a little bit?" Gordon, who had been a miner for more than two months, excitedly joined hands.

Anshir gave him a helpless look, "Dig, you can dig, the question is, did you bring an iron pick?"

"certainly!"

Then, under Anshir's speechless gaze, Gordon took out a portable iron pick from his luggage.

Anshir, whose luggage was full of ammunition and had no room to bring an iron pickaxe, shrugged and said, "Don't worry about digging, I'll go outside to help you guard", and then walked out of the scorching cave.

Gordon, who could only think of the words "remains! Stone guard!", rounded his arms, swung his pickaxe and started digging.

The rock wall in the scorching cave, or the remnant wall of the ruins, was quite hard. It took Gordon a lot of effort to dig a crack more than one meter long.

Looking inside, it seems that there is something buried inside.

Gordon suddenly became more energetic, swinging the iron pick in his hand faster and faster, and the crack continued to expand.

More than half an hour later, Gordon struggled to pull out a nearly 200 centimeters long, 20 to 30 centimeters wide, corroded metal block.

This was the first time Gordon had dug up something like this in a volcano. Although he didn't know what it would be useful for, he still put the rust aside and prepared to take it away later.

"Clang! Clang!" Continue to dig.

Perhaps it was because the ruins were not infected by magma, unlike other ruins, which were fused with metal minerals. Gordon dug for a long time and didn't see any metal ores.

Except for the original large piece of rusted iron, there are only countless stones.

But Gordon didn't mean to give up. Anyway, the transport team hasn't arrived yet, so let's continue digging!

Another half hour passed.

When Anshir returned to the scorching cave again and told Gordon that the transport team had arrived, the lava dragon was also loaded on the vehicle, and was ready to leave, Gordon swung the pickaxe one last time.

"Ding!"

With a crisp sound, a heavily weathered metal block fell to the ground.

"Damn it, I really dug out the protective stone for you?!"

The journey of escorting the transport team back to the village was without any surprises or dangers.

After returning to Naguli Village, Gordon asked Anshir to go to the meeting place to pay the task and collect the reward, while he immediately held the large piece of rusted iron and the only original guard stone he had dug up, Run to the workshop to find the village chief.

He had an intuition that he had dug something good this time!

Well, in fact, it has nothing to do with intuition. Gordon, who has been digging the stone for more than two months, can already judge the quality of the finished stone from the appearance of the original stone.

This protective stone is obviously a very fine one.

When Gordon came to the workshop, the village head of the Tulong tribe was taking a nap.

After being woken up by the former, the old man murmured and opened his eyes, and then his eyes immediately fell on the big and heavy piece of rust in Gordon's hand.

"Hey, such a big piece of rust, how lucky are you, Brother Gordon?"

"Ah?" Gordon didn't expect that the old man of the village chief would pay attention to this first, "Is there any explanation for this thing?"

"You should have discovered some ruins, right?" The village chief of the Earth Dragon Tribe shook his crescent-shaped beard and said, "If some people are lucky enough to come across a ruin, they may have a chance to dig out this kind of metal rust.

This is some kind of alloy left over from ancient civilizations. No one knows their original use, maybe some kind of special props, maybe some kind of weapon. "

"Alloy? Can it be smelted into metal ingots like iron ore?" Gordon asked curiously.

"No, no, no, we don't have the technology to smelt it, no matter how high the temperature is, the only way to process it is to grind it." The village head of the Tulong tribe took the plate-shaped rust and patted it, and continued:

"If it is a large piece of rust, we can make it into a giant hammer; if it is a rod-shaped piece of rust, we can polish it into a growth gun; if it is such a plate-shaped piece of rust, we can polish it into a big sword!

Your piece is surprisingly complete, which is quite rare. "

Hearing that this thing in front of him can be made into a big sword, Gordon also became excited, "Big sword? What kind of big sword? Is it powerful? Is it better than my Explosive Knife Kai?!"

The beard of the village chief of the Earth Dragon Tribe trembled, "Uh, don't worry, little brother Gordon, this plate-shaped rust block rubs off the outer layer of rust stains, and then presses on the hilt, it is the 'Great Rotten Sword', this big Swords are not very good, and they are better than the most basic 'giant sword' derived from the iron sword system."

Gordon: "."

"Using a large amount of earth crystals as a whetstone, after fine grinding, it can be upgraded to a 'Rust Great Sword'. This great sword is still not very good, and it is not as good as your original Explosive Knife."

Gordon: "."

"But!" The village chief of the Earth Dragon Tribe patted the rust block and raised his voice: "After strengthening the rusty sword again, it will be reborn and become a very good sword. Its performance is far superior to the explosive knife you are currently using. Change it!"

"Oh, oh!" Gordon immediately raised his spirits when he heard the words, "What's the name of that great sword?"

"Ancient Blade!"

"It sounds great!"

"Well, in terms of horizontal comparison, the ancient blade is a weapon close to the upper level."

"So, what materials are needed to strengthen the rusty sword into an ancient blade?" Gordon asked excitedly, and he was ready to plunge into the hunting ground.

"The first is forty parts of the earth crystal."

Gordon was taken aback by the number of "forty parts", but he didn't care much about it. It was just the most basic ore, and he could get it together quickly after staying in the volcano for a few more days.

"It's enough to have another 'Blood of the Ancient Dragon'."

Gordon blinked, and leaned his ears closer to the old man of the village chief, "I seem to have misheard, what blood?"

"The blood of the ancient dragon."

The light in Gordon's eyes disappeared, and he repeated it dryly, "The blood of the ancient dragon? Literally, the blood of the ancient dragon?"

"Yeah." The village chief of the Earth Dragon Tribe gestured, "It's enough to reply to a medicine bottle."

Gordon: "."
