Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Nearly an hour passed, and the weather never cleared up, but Gordon's mood became quite good instead. In his eyes, even the gloomy sky seemed a little cute.

Finally learned how to move quickly in this muddy ground!

However, compared with him, the mood of Ohsura, who was leading the way, was so beautiful.

The huntress found that it was difficult for her to distance herself from Gordon. Of course, she could run faster with a lower load, but at the same time, it would consume more energy, which was not worthwhile.

Not for cross-country racing.

Oh Shula was sincerely envious of Gordon's ability to learn.

She knew that, unlike hunters like her who had participated in the full set of training in the training camp, Gordon was a traditional hunter trained in the form of master and apprentice.

In many cases, as long as the master is reliable enough, the traditional school can learn a deeper level of experience and knowledge, but when it comes to the comprehensiveness of abilities, the training camp school must have the upper hand.

Both have their own advantages and disadvantages, but Gordon can quickly make up for his shortcomings through learning.

Take the footwork he just "learned" as an example.

This set of footwork was taught to her by an instructor who is good at wetland warfare. It is not difficult to learn, but it took her a few hours to gradually master it under the latter's guidance.

How can it be like Gordon, who imitates and actually fights, and learns decently in a short time.

It's no wonder that this guy was able to be promoted to two stars at such a young age. Give him another year or two, maybe he should catch up with me and be promoted to three stars, right?

The two were thinking about each other, but their pace did not slow down.

Gordon noticed that the terrain under their feet was gradually rising. Unlike the steep slopes of the hilly areas, the slopes here were very gentle.

Only when you look back and compare the way you came, can you notice the improvement in height.

But it is this small height difference that makes the water area in this area less and less, the soil becomes more solid, and the environment is more suitable for the survival of woody plants. Not far ahead, you can already see the lush forest belt.

"Does it feel a bit like the dense forest over Metabe?" Ohshura slowed down and turned around with a smile.

Even hunters with strong physical fitness will be tired after running for a long time in full armor. Before they really enter the dense forest, they need a short rest.

Gordon stopped slowly, took two deep breaths, nodded his head and said, "It's a little bit, but I think the types of vegetation seem to be different."

"It's right to notice that."

Ursula tied her hair again, and said in a solemn tone: "The forest belt here belongs to the rainforest, and there are more ferns, vines and broad-leaved plants than those on the Metabe and Shret Mountains, so be careful." Snakes and parasites.

I know you're at home in the hills and the woods, but this is new territory, don't let your guard down. "

"I see, Senior Ohshura." Gordon obediently agreed.

"How is the pork chop!~"

When facing the pork chop, Ursula's voice became bold and bright again.

Pig Chop shook off the water droplets on his body again, raised the ore cat pick in his hand, and responded loudly, "I'm fine, meow!"

"Let's eat something. After filling our stomachs, we'll go into the woods." After finishing speaking, Osura took out a piece of food to carry, and began to bite vigorously.

Gordon and Pork Chop also took out food from their bags.

Due to the continuous rain, the greased paper wrapped with the food material has been soaked by the rain, and the food material inside is also somewhat damp. Fortunately, it does not affect the food, but the taste becomes more difficult to chew.

The same is true for the dried fish for pork chops, but it doesn't care about it since it grew up in the wild. Its little paws hold the wet dried fish and nibble quickly.

In just over two minutes, they finished eating and took a few sips of water in unison. Their full stomachs were enough for them to deal with it for most of the day.

"About more than a kilometer from the edge of the forest belt, there is a low rocky mountain with some small caves eroded by wind and rain, which is the best lair for the peach-haired beast group.

The geology near the rocky mountain is relatively hard, and the vegetation is relatively less. If we encounter the peach-haired beast king, we will try our best to fight there. The lush rainforest is not suitable for me to play. "

With a full stomach, Ushula squatted down and drew a sketch of the nearby terrain on the ground with her fingers.

"OK."

Gordon agreed with Ohsura's judgment, but out of curiosity, he still asked the question in his heart, "Senior Ohsura, have you ever hunted the peach-haired beast king near that rocky mountain before?"

"Yeah, three or four months ago, what happened?"

"After the death of a peach-haired beast king, there should be no way for the peach-haired beast group to support another one in such a short period of time, right?"

Gordon was a little worried that they would miss out.

Ushula smiled and said: "Then you underestimate the cruel ecology in the wetland. After the peach-haired beast group lost its leader, it was impossible for them to occupy that treasured nesting land for a long time.

The nearby peach-haired herds will come to take over the territory. Some of the local peach-haired beasts will be killed or exiled, and some will be absorbed into the new group to form a larger group.

All in all, as long as there is a group of peach-haired beasts nearby, it is basically certain that the peach-haired beast king is also nearby. "

"Well, it would be great if we can find the target smoothly, shall we set off now?"

"while walking!"

Gordon nodded and entered the rainforest first.

As a swordsman, it is only natural to take the lead and clear the way in front.

As Oshula said, this rainforest seems to be similar to the mountain forest on the side of Shulet, with the same denseness and greenness, but in fact the difference is not small.

He needs to spend more energy to be alert to the surrounding environment and avoid the attacks of poisonous snakes and other creatures, so the speed is not fast.

The lush and broad leaves blocked the continuous rain for them, but the super high air humidity made Gordon and the others feel as if they were soaked in water all the time, stuffy and hot.

Suddenly, Gordon noticed something, he raised his fist while he stopped, and Ohshura, who was not far behind him, immediately stood on guard.

This is a bamboo forest, with countless thigh-thick bamboos pointing straight to the sky. Gordon noticed something strange around some of the bamboos—the ground next to the bamboo roots had obviously been moved, and there were a lot of traces of beasts' claws turning the soil.

Gordon squatted down and checked carefully, and found that the traces were relatively fresh.

Oh Shula also came closer, she glanced at it, and then said with absolute certainty: "This is the paw print of the peach-haired beast, it should be the mark left when it came here to dig bamboo shoots to eat.

This kind of bamboo is very resistant to humidity, and there are many in the nearby forests. Its tender shoots, like mushrooms, are also the favorite staple food of peach hair beasts. "

"Looking for food, from this point of view, the peach-haired beast group is not too far away from here."

"Well, these pink gorillas like to move in groups. Once we encounter at least two or three of them, we can eliminate some of them first, so as to save them from running out to make trouble when we are fighting the peach-haired beast king."

What Ushura said may seem cruel to some people, but Gordon, who is also a hunter, understands that they don't have the room to sympathize with monsters in the dangerous wilderness.

"Let's follow the trail to see."
