Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Since the shooter teammate of this cooperation is not Anshir, who likes to shoot bullets, Gordon pays more attention to avoiding the shooting circle.

Try not to form a three-point line between the muzzle and monsters.

But he soon discovered that it didn't seem necessary.

Although his fighting style is different from Anshir's, Nadia's shooting skills are also very superb.

The former is used to being fixed in one shooting position for a long time, and through high-precision sniping, it provides precise support that seems dangerous.

The latter relies on the mobility of the light ballista to frequently move its position, looking for angles and opportunities to attack.

Julius was about to appear afterimages and ghosts danced wildly. Even Anshiril was not sure of catching bullets, so Nadia adopted another form of support.

Due to the limitation of stamina, it is impossible for the demon dance to last for a long time. Whenever Julius's attack is suspended, her shooting will appear from the side to fill the gap.

Under the tacit cooperation between the two, the offensive continued continuously.

It's no wonder that Julius, who is so proud and arrogant, can become a regular teammate. The strength and talent of this young female shooter are both at the top level.

In other words, such an analysis also relieved a long-standing doubt in Gordon's mind.

Why didn't Anshir and Julius, who had known each other for a long time and became famous together and were even called "Twin Stars" together, not form a partner?

Julius is obviously not the kind of timid person who doesn't trust his teammates.

It turned out that it wasn't because of personality differences or other messy reasons, it was simply that the fighting styles of the two didn't match up.

——Ghostman Luanwu couldn't clean bullets, and Anshir couldn't move around with the nimble Julius while carrying a heavy crossbow.

When Julius and Nadia completed a set, Gordon finally rushed to the beetle.

Noticing the latter's approach from the corner of the eye, Julius immediately adjusted his position sideways.

Due to the previous high-speed combo, the Chi Beetle, whose attention had been firmly attracted by the dual swordsman, began to turn around after him, ignoring the big swordsman coming from behind.

Gordon smiled, and Tieshan had skipped the phases of charged power slash and strong charged power slash, and directly began to prepare for the true charged power slash with the largest attack range and power.

"drink."

Exhaling and exerting strength, the true charged power cut completed at the fastest speed was released.

In the face of Explosive Knife Kai, hunting the carapace of a two-star dangerous beetle alone is not considered strong.

The steel claws successfully broke through the carapace on its back, and before it could react, the powerful second slash roared.

The claw-like blade was deeply embedded in the beetle's body, and as the sword continued to be dragged, the carapace and flesh instantly shattered.

"Squeak—"

The beetle's mouthparts trembled, making a piercing sound.

Important muscle groups on the back were damaged, and its flying movements were also affected to some extent. Its body, which was considered very large among insects, slanted to one side, but it still turned to Gordon persistently.

The sickle-shaped forelimbs slashed at the hunter in front of him.

In the uncomplicated thinking of crustaceans, whoever attacks makes it hurt more is more threatening.

Gordon knew very well that there was no need for him to take the risk of confronting the beetle right now, as long as he could attract the attention of the prey.

Block with a sword, defensive posture!

The attack power of the beetle wielding the scythe was only average, and it failed to break through Gordon's defense after a few consecutive blows, and only smashed a few sparks on the thick sword surface of the Explosive Knife Kai.

"pretty."

Julius, who was behind the beetle, gave a light praise, and entered the ghost-human state again.

Ghost dance!

Carapace, green blood, and insect wing fragments flew in all directions.

The beetle whose wings were damaged again could no longer maintain its flying posture, and fell from the sky.

The remnant wings vibrating at high speed repeatedly slapped the ground, splashing earth and rocks, and it still looked very energetic, but the hunters knew that it had no ability to resist.

"Natia, save ammo, Gordon, we'll make it quick."

The hunting process of the first beetle was unexpectedly smooth.

The pork chop didn't even find a chance to make a move.

Before the sun started to set, they finished hunting and stripping, and returned to camp with "the sharp horn of the beetle".

Of course, they also knew that it was mainly luck this time, and they encountered a lone carnivorous beetle, while the really dangerous heavy beetle was not nearby.

Otherwise, you won't be able to play the feeling of being crushed all the way.

After returning to the camp and resting for a while, the few people built a bonfire, took out the food they brought, and chatted while eating.

"You said, is it possible for us to change our strategy?"

Nadia held food in her mouth, disassembled and inspected the Light Crossbow Fire Dragon Cannon, and suggested: "After marking the heavy beetle with the dye bomb, we will walk around it and hunt for the single carabiner at the same time."

Julius seriously thought about Miss Light Crossbow Envoy's suggestion, and shook his head.

"I don't think it is feasible. Today we can find that this beetle relies entirely on the nose of the pork chop, and found the remains left by the beetle's predation.

How do we determine where other beetles are if they haven't eaten for a short time? "

"That's right." Nadia nodded, and didn't worry about changing the strategy anymore.

As Julius said, the beetle is good at flying, and rarely leaves traces except for preying.

The usual skills of hunters tracking monster footprints are almost completely useless at this time. In this case, it is better to surround the heavy beetles and wait for the carnivorous beetles to come to the door one by one.

They also discussed the attack behavior of the array beetle.

The beetle just now was suppressed all the way, so it failed to make the straight-line dash that the beetle is famous for. Julius reminded Nadia to be careful with this move.

He is flexible enough. Gordon has thick armor and a big sword to protect his body. Only Nadia, who looks like he is wearing no armor, has the least error tolerance rate.

Even if the beetle is only a monster with a danger level of two stars, if it is hit head-on, the best result will be serious injury.

After the discussion was about the same, several people started to do their own things.

In fact, hunters have nothing else to do in the hunting camp, nothing more than maintaining weapons and checking armor.

Whether it's Julius's chainsaw-style twin swords or Nadia's light crossbow, they are all things that are very troublesome to maintain. Only Gordon's Explosive Knife Kai is the most convenient to tinker with.

After carefully wiping off the blood stains on the blade with a coarse cloth, apply the knife oil again, and it's almost the same.

Feeling a little idle, Gordon picked up the sharp horn of the beetle and looked around.

This section of the horn is orange-red and half a meter long, but it's actually just the tip of the giant horn that almost accounts for half of the entire length of the beetle.

It is as sharp as an awl, and the surface has the unique oily reflection of chitin, and it is unexpectedly light in the hand.

Looking inside from the fracture, it is semi-hollow, but it is supported by complex geometric structures inside, which may be the main reason why it is light and strong.

"Master wants to use this research as a cannonball."

Gordon threw the pointed horn, "By the way, aren't shells usually round?"

Before Julius could speak, Nadia, who was a shooter, spoke first, "Actually, as long as it can solve the problem of rolling the shell, the tapered shell has many advantages over the spherical shell.

Longer shooting range, several times the armor-piercing ability, smaller caliber requirements, etc., look at the crossbow bullets and arrows, don’t they all have pointed ends? "

"I see."

"I want to see it too! Show me meow!" Zhu Chop was also jumping around.

Gordon handed it the pointed horn, and asked curiously, "Is this helpful for your explosives research?"

"It's meow!"

The pork chop stuck its head into the sharp corner.

"I'm currently developing something called a 'rocket' meow!"

"?"

(There is another chapter tonight)

Ps.

The tech tree of Elu (and the Kinky Faces of the New World) is full of a kind of "I'm thinking about it" green leather flavor.

Especially the promotional video of mh3 or mh4 back then? I was really impressed by the cat's nut spaceship that hit the Booming Dragon in the desert
