Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Hayata and the others at Yuechen Stronghold are not the only ones who have trouble sleeping tonight.

Most of the hunters scattered in various areas of the Everfrost Frozen Land, searching for the whereabouts of the ice dragon, are still awake.

That unsettling feeling of anxiety hangs over everyone's heart.

They were stunned by the red distress signal that lit up in the sky in the distance.

When they realized that it was the direction of Yuechen's stronghold, the hunters scattered all over the place uttered curse words and rushed back as hard as they could.

Gale felt like his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

If it weren't for Shayan's reminder, she wouldn't have realized that it was the Yuechen stronghold that sent out the distress signal.

The terrifying scene of the ancient dragon breathing over the Yuechen stronghold, turning the stronghold into ruins, inevitably emerged in his mind.

"Fufu!" Gale screamed.

There was no time to extinguish the bonfire, and there was no time to collect the luggage. He smashed down the jade and caught the swooping winter pterosaur in his hook claws and soared into the air.

She didn't even bother to remind her hunting partner. If Sandstone hadn't reacted quickly and hung on her leg in advance, she would have been left behind.

The training time of Winter Pterodactyl is limited, it is not easy to control, and it is not particularly stable when flying with people. The risk of crash is not small.

Except for the very brave ones like Gale, most hunters still choose to travel by sled or on foot.

Of course, being bold also has its benefits.

For the same distance, other hunters might have to catch up in the middle of the night, but she could get there in about an hour at most by flying quickly on the Winter Wing Dragon.

But she still felt that it was not fast enough, and she wished she could get a whip and whip the winter pterosaur to make it fly faster.

"There's something chasing us down there!" Sandstone, who was on Gale's lap, suddenly reminded loudly: "It seems to be a beastly cat, and it's waving at us!"

"None of my business?" Gale, who was in a hurry to rush back, had no interest in meddling in other people's business.

Sandstone spoke again: "It is riding an ice wolf and is also heading towards the Yuechen stronghold. Maybe it has something important to do!"

"Tsk."

Gale clicked his tongue in annoyance, but still controlled the Winter Winged Dragon to lower its altitude and pass by the Beast Tangle.

She had no intention of landing on the ground, and the beast-tangled tribe reacted quickly, jumping up from the back of the running ice wolf and hugging her other leg.

One on each side of the sandstone, which is quite balanced.

Gale had no time to ask any more questions and kept urging the Winter Winged Dragon to climb faster.

Shayan and the beastman faced each other, chattering and talking, and loudly translated for Gale after every few words he said.

"It's called. The name is too long so I won't read it. It says it's the captain of the Beast Tangle Clan's reconnaissance team, Meow!"

"Have you had contact with Ancil and the others this morning, meow?!"

".This happened meow, and then they agreed to monitor the Frozen Canyon meow!"

"Meow meow?! Not long ago, the ice dragon attacked the frozen canyon, meow! It drove a large group of wind-drifting dragons towards this direction, meow!"

"*!"

Under Gale's repeated driving regardless of the risk of crashing, they arrived at the Yuechen stronghold in only two-thirds of the time at normal cruising speed.

That winter pterosaur is almost dying.

The lights at Yuechen Stronghold were brightly lit, and the battle seemed to have not broken out yet, which made Gale heave a sigh of relief.

Landing in the stronghold, he asked Shayan to take the beast entangling tribe to find someone to report the news, and then rushed back home.

Both Fu Fu and Mrs. Sterling were fine, which made her heart finally fall back into her stomach after being worried for a long time.

He picked up Fufu who was sleeping on the bed, "Huh? Little Muti is here too? Does Hayata feel something is wrong too?"

Mrs. Sterling asked with a worried look: "What happened? When Miss Hayata brought the child over, she told me to go to the shelter as soon as she heard any noise."

"Don't hear the noise, hurry over now." Gale slapped Fufu on the butt to wake her up.

His tone was urgent and authentic: "Food and water are prepared in the shelter. Remember to bring cold-proof clothes and blankets. Unless we come to you, don't come out if you hear anything."

After being woken up from a drowsy sleep, Fufu saw her mother coming back and opened her arms to subconsciously want her mother to hold her.

Gale gave her a quick hug, "Get dressed quickly, listen to grandma, and take good care of your little sister."

After giving these instructions, she didn't have time to say goodbye, tightened her weapon sling, and ran outside.

The entire Yuechen stronghold woke up, and people were walking around in a hurry inside the stronghold.

Fortunately, the members of the investigation team are not ordinary civilians. They have experienced many things in the crisis-ridden New World and behaved relatively calmly when the crisis came.

The hunters formed small teams to patrol, the craftsmen quickly adjusted the defensive weapons, and the remaining non-combatants entered the shelter in an orderly manner under the command of the security team.

Gale found Hayata and the others on the Battle Street side.

"How's the situation? Have Sandstone told you about it?" Gale asked straight to the point.

"Well, we've sounded the alarm."

Hayata looked solemn, "Fortunately, the swordsman master was decisive and sent out a distress signal early, otherwise the scattered hunters might not be able to come back in time to support."

"How many hunters have come back?" Gale asked quickly.

"Not much. The alcohol team was sent to an area far to the northeast. Don't worry about not being able to get back in time. They shouldn't be able to see the distress signal there.

Gordon, Anxiel, Fengying and the others should have gone to the far north, and it would be difficult for them to get back.

Several four- and five-star elite hunters have arrived one after another.

Now, in addition to the four of us, there are about ten hunters in the Yuechen stronghold."

Gail scratched his hair hard, "With more than a dozen hunters, let alone the Ice Curse Dragon, we can't even deal with the twenty or thirty Wind Drifting Dragons it brought."

Aside, the swordsmanship master with his arms folded said in a deep voice: "So we have to change our minds, and the shelter for non-combatants will be completed soon.

The shelter is a transformation of the underground warehouse, and it is built strong enough that the Wind Drifting Dragon cannot attack.

As long as the personnel are safe, the facilities are not that important, and it can always be rebuilt with some time.

My suggestion is to give up the idea of ​​guarding the Yuechen stronghold, and fight on the battle street, focusing on self-protection and preserving defensive weapons, and try to deal with it.

As more hunters come back, the situation will gradually be favorable to us. ”

Hayata added: "The biggest trouble is the Ice Curse Dragon. Not to mention that it hides in the dark, it will suddenly blow a breath and shoot, which will cause us great losses.

The Wind Drift Dragon group was driven here by it. If we can get rid of it, the Wind Drift Dragon should also disperse. ”

"So who will deal with the Ice Curse Dragon?" Gale asked: "If that guy is smart, he will not get too close to the base, and it will be difficult for the fortifications to pose a threat to it."

"I will go!" Gene was the first to sign up.

The swordsman thought for a moment and said, "We need to allocate manpower to defend the battle street with other hunters, so at most two people can be arranged.

Miss Hayata has experience in fighting the Ice Curse Dragon head-on, so the two of us will deal with the Ice Curse Dragon, and the matter of guarding the battle street will be left to you. ”

In fact, the ice resistance of the Tyrant Dragon's armor is not bad. The swordsmanship master is worried about Gene's hot temper.

"Okay!"

"I'm going to fight the ancient dragon too! "

Gail agreed readily and dragged Gene, who was still a little unconvinced, away, "Stop talking nonsense, I want to operate the rapid-fire cannon, come over here and be my guard!"

Just as Gene was about to struggle, the sentry on the high ground blew the horn to symbolize an emergency.

"A large black shadow is approaching in the sky in the north. Are they all wind dragons? !"
