Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Since boarding the airship, Pork Chop has been hiding in the cabin, tinkering with its explosives.

Considering that the real target of the hunt this time was the nimble beetle, Pig Chop did not make a large and powerful explosive bomb like the previous two times.

Instead, they produced many miniature explosive bombs that were used to interfere and lure the enemy rather than kill them.

——In this hunting, its task is to assist Julius and attract the attention of the heavy beetle.

This kind of miniature explosive bomb, which is not as big as a fist, has shown a very good "provocative" effect in the battle of hunting a horned dragon, and it will not affect the hunters in close combat.

Now it has been stereotyped by pork chops and exists as a commonly used model.

Most archer hunters are more interested in this kind of "sounding" props, and Nadia is no exception.

After discovering that Pork Chop was reconciling a bomb she hadn't seen before, she also leaned over to study with it.

One person and one cat get along happily.

After simple communication, it can be found that Nadia's character is not as "wild" as her appearance, but rather gentle and mature.

If you think about it, if you are a fierce huntress like Ohhura or Heiniya, you will face Julius who is calm and rigid, and sometimes easily misunderstood as "yin and yang".

May fight.

Julius didn't know how Gordon planned himself in his mind. He walked into the cabin and said to the others: "You can already see Sky Mountain, pack your luggage, we're almost there."

"Meow?"

After hearing this, Pig Chop frantically poured the last bit of gunpowder into the shell made of hollow nuts.

With the help of Nadia, after installing the lead wire and sealing the upper gap with waterproof beeswax, another miniature bomb was made.

"The pork chop is amazing!" Nadia rubbed the pork chop's little head and got up to check her huge luggage.

Like every good shooter, Nadia also likes to prepare as many magazines as possible. This time, he needs to hunt many beetles. It will be a protracted battle, so prepare well and be prepared.

Gordon didn't have any luggage to prepare at all. With the Explosive Knife Kai on his back, he came to the deck with Julius.

The airship was flying above the sea of ​​clouds, and as far as the eye could see, it was all white.

Gordon asked Julius, "Where's Sky Mountain?"

Julius didn't answer him, just pointed forward with his finger.

Gordon looked into the distance, only to find that at the end of the sea of ​​clouds in front of him, sharp peaks pierced the sea of ​​clouds, standing far away like huge stone monuments erected by the gods.

Different from the vitality of Xiulet Senqiu, the dauntingness of Latio Volcano, and the vastness and magnificence of the great desert.

Going straight into the sky, the sky mountain with misty mist and clouds has a sacred beauty that shakes the soul.

At this moment, Gordon suddenly felt a sense of rejoicing that he had become a hunter.

Otherwise, such a scene may only appear in a dream.

Nadia and Pig Chop also came to the deck, watching this spectacle with Gordon and the others, no matter how many times or how long they watched it, they would never tire of watching it.

Time passed slowly, and they had entered between those steep peaks, as if they could touch the green plants that grew strong on the cliffs with their hands.

The airship continued to fly close to the sea of ​​clouds, without any intention of descending.

As soon as Gordon had a doubt, Julius said, "We're here."

The airship slanted around a dangerous peak like a stone pillar, and a hidden village above the sea of ​​clouds appeared in front of their eyes.

Rare buildings, colorful sails and windmills fluttering in the wind, and emerald green terraced fields hidden in the sea of ​​clouds.

This is a paradise built on a hilltop platform.

"Wow!"

Gordon opened his mouth wide like a shark's.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined that there could be a village in this high mountain above the clouds.

"I always thought that Sinard Village was at the foot of Sky Mountain." Gordon said to himself.

Julius raised his hand, "This statement is actually correct. 'Sky Mountain' can refer to the nearby mountains and mountains in general, and also specifically refers to the highest peak."

Gordon looked in the direction of Julius' finger,

There is an exceptionally tall solitary peak, like the tip of a spear, pointing directly at the sky.

Dimly visible between the clouds and mist, there is a thin cable bridge, starting from the mountaintop platform where Sinard Village is located, to the mountainside of Tiantian Mountain, which is set up in the air, connecting the two places together.

Looking at the terrifying angle of more than 60 degrees at the end of the cable bridge, and then at the sky-high cliff of Sky Mountain, Gordon's eyes twitched violently.

Is this bridge really for people to walk on? Is that mountain really climbable?

"Then what, let me confirm in advance that the 'Sky Mountain' mentioned by our target hunting ground should be this mountain range in a broad sense, not that isolated peak?"

"Puff~!" Nadia couldn't help laughing.

Julius gave Gordon a helpless look, "The temple on Sky Mountain is occupied by a great monk, do you think anyone can go up there casually?

The hunting grounds are of course in the mountains around here! "

"That's good, that's good."

While a few people were chatting, the airship slowly landed on a rocky platform on the edge of Sinard Village.

When the airship came to a complete stop, Gordon and the others didn't bother to use the gangway, and jumped off the deck one after another.

"Oh, welcome, welcome, you are finally here!"

Before Gordon had time to look around, a male dragon-human youth who seemed very gentle and reliable approached them.

He was wearing a thick cloth that was easy to move around, with a small toy-like windmill stuck in his waist. In the huge bamboo basket behind his back were agricultural tools such as sickles, and some plants that Gordon didn't recognize, which might be some kind of herbal medicine.

Gordon immediately had a guess in his mind—this person should be the commissioner of the task, the "friendly young farmer".

What a precise description.

As the direct recipient of the task and the captain of this temporary team, Julius stepped forward.

He shook hands with the young man, "Hello, we are hunters from East Doruma, I am Julius, the double-sword user, and Nadia, the light crossbow user, this is Gordon, the great sword user, and he my best hunting cat partner, pork chop."

The young man shook hands with them one by one, not even missing the pork chops.

"May the wind guide you. It's been hard work. You must have been tired all the way, right? Let's rest at my house tonight and recharge your batteries!"

"Then I'll trouble you." Julius nodded his jaw at the dragon-human youth.

Gordon was a little surprised by Julius' respectful attitude, and considering the mission slip with many flaws, Gordon felt that the identity of this young man should not be simple.

Maybe he is the village head of this village?

If this is the case, it is not surprising that in the southeast of the mainland, Jiangbo Village, which has become famous in recent years, is said to have been established under the leadership of a very young village chief of the Dragon Clan.

When Gordon left Cocot Village, the old village head suggested to him that he could develop there.

Just then, a breeze came.

All the villagers, including the young dragonman, stopped their work and closed their eyes to enjoy the moist and refreshing breeze.

The windmill at the waist whirred and turned.

After the breeze passed, a happy smile appeared on the face of the young dragonman.

"The wind is auspicious, this time you will be very smooth!"

Ps.

Personally, I think mh4 is really the best and most full-bodied work. It’s been almost ten years now—the impression of the plot is a bit blurred

The timeline of the black erosion dragon's chaos has not yet begun, so Sinard Village is still peaceful~

By the way, what is the monk's real name? Shouldn't it be mentioned in the original book?
