Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

An Xier sighed, reluctantly accepting the fact that he had an extra younger sister on the legal level.

"Come with me." He patted the back of the squid's head, and walked to another training ground with better facilities.

Nymph happily followed.

"Damn it, envy!" Gail gritted his teeth and muttered.

Gordon looked at her with a smile, and made a joke, "Wouldn't it be more fulfilling if you worked hard to snatch 'Anhill's sister' over as your disciple?"

"Huh?!" Gail clenched his fists, "You're right, I'm on fire!"

The basic testing process went smoothly.

This part mainly revolves around physical fitness. For those newcomers who have not yet become official hunters, physical training is always the top priority, and it is also the key to widening the gap between ordinary people and hunters.

The result was unexpected, but within reason.

Nymph's physical ability is obviously not at the level of ordinary people. Of course, it can't compare with Gordon and the others, but it is almost at the level of a novice hunter.

The harsh living environment in the sea of ​​trees has created all of this, just like the teenagers who helped out in the fields since childhood must be stronger than the children in the city for a reason.

What's more, the Alchemy Academy she once stayed in will also arrange physical training.

This result satisfied Hilda.

Building physical fitness is the most time-consuming, and most of the students entering the training camp will also be screened out in this link, and their physical fitness talent is not enough to support them to become hunters.

Nymphs can skip this step and directly learn hunting knowledge and skills with those senior students.

After obtaining this part of the results, Hilda revised the content of the test and conducted a further investigation.

Later, it was discovered that in some aspects of the quality of the nymph, it has indeed reached the level of a formal hunter, and even surpassed the level of most hunters.

The two most prominent points are the pace and tracking ability, of course, there is a premise - in a dense forest environment.

If she ran freely in a virgin forest like the Sea of ​​Trees, only Hilda could catch up with her, and the others, including a light-armed hunter like Hayata, who had an advantage in speed, would be thrown off.

The same is true for tracking.

According to Hilda, as long as you add the ability to fight monsters head-on, such as weapon use skills, the nymph is already a very good hunter-limited to the dense forest environment.

At this point in the test, it could actually be over, but out of curiosity, Gordon proposed to let the nymph show her martial arts again.

She said she knew how to use hammers and bows.

Even the hunter training camp in East Doruma obviously didn't have such things as flute hammers, and Hilda gave her a training insect stick as a substitute.

The gnats can't use the functions of the insect stick, so they can only use the monster target as the object to demonstrate the stick technique.

This aspect can only be said to be okay, the level of high-level hunter students, but in order to adapt to the weapons used by hunters, many habits have to be reinvented.

Bow skills are also similar, most of the residents of Shuhai use short and light bows.

In fact, except for Monster Hunter, no one would use that kind of giant bow that was as tall as a person when unfolded, and the arrows it shot were comparable to short spears. The bow and arrow skills she had mastered before were of little significance.

However, eyesight has been recognized by Hilda, which is the basic condition for becoming a shooter.

Just when Hilda was thinking about how to arrange the nymphs more appropriately.

Anshir suddenly asked a question that was ignored by them, "Granny, can you take off this parasitic armor?"

Everyone was taken aback, but except for Mrs. Sterling who raised her eyebrows, no one thought about it.

Nymph nodded, then shook his head again, "You can take off some parts, but if you can't do it for too long, the parasitic beetle may die in two or three days."

This answer made the hunters frown.

Some parts of the parasitic armor have been symbiotic with the nymph and become a part of her body, such as the butterfly wings, and the remaining parts that can be removed also need to rely on her body to provide nutrients, and cannot leave the body for a long time.

In other words, the crocodile cannot equip other armors.

This parasitic armor is different from armor in the usual sense. Not only will it not affect the action of the gnat, it can even provide a considerable degree of assistance.

For example, the pair of shining butterfly wings can be spread out and flapped. Although it can't fly directly with the nymph, it can have the effect similar to gliding, and it can also conveniently provide leverage when maneuvering in the air.

This makes her flexibility unmatched in dense forests and other complex terrain environments, at least Gordon and the others can't do things like jumping back and forth between the branches.

But the disadvantages are also obvious, the defense performance is limited

In terms of horizontal comparison, it is almost at the level of "Swallowtail Suit".

"Is there a way to strengthen this thing of yours?" Anshir asked bluntly.

"Maybe there is a way?" Nymph scratched his head, "Nymph doesn't know but."

"When you have the opportunity to return to the Sea of ​​Trees in the future, you should ask your senior teachers and seniors. At present, if you consider your parasitic armor as the starting point, there are not many suitable development directions.

Don’t think about heavy weapons and hunting bows, your body shape is not suitable, and heavy crossbows are not good enough, you can’t withstand the recoil.”

After Anshir's words, the crocodile entered a state of despair.

She really wanted to try the heavy crossbow. The residents of Shuhai lacked such a powerful long-distance attack method.

Being glared at by Mrs. Sterling, Anshir had no choice but to say something good.

"But you also have a high degree of compatibility with some weapons, such as the insect stick. Ordinary insect stick users can't flap their wings and change directions in the air like you. Maybe you can try the double sword.

For ranged weapons"

"Girls are born for light crossbows!" Gail interrupted Anshir, "Defensive performance? What is defensive performance, as long as it is not touched by monsters, those are nothing!

Look at my sister's armor, it's even more fragile than you when you take off your pants! "

"It would be indecent if you take off your trousers again." Anshir stabbed coldly.

"Don't talk!" Squeezing Ansir away, Gail continued to grab the shoulder of the nymph and said: "The nymph remembers what my sister said, since there is no way to pursue comprehensiveness, then pursue 'a little breakthrough', this is my sister's creed!

Your little wings are especially useful in complex environments, so let's specialize in this area, desert? volcano? snow mountain? Why don't we just accept the task over there?

Let's drill into the woods! Are there fewer hunting grounds with complex terrain?

Why does my sister say that you are suitable for light crossbows, because light crossbows are the most flexible and changeable weapons, different ballistas, different ammunition, can adapt to almost any situation. Can! "

"The last one is not allowed!" Hilda hurriedly added.

Gail continued excitedly, "We have imagined a tactic, and my sister and I can't do it with my ability, but you may be able to achieve it.

That is a three-dimensional attack!

Your ability to jump up and down among the branches of trees is very fancy on a swordsman, but it is different with a light crossbow. You can get more shooting angles, more variable shooting positions, and the back of the neck. can be easily attacked.

After a hunt, the monster may not see where you are, and the battle is over! "

Gordon scratched his chin. He had seen someone use a similar style before—Lan, the light crossbowman of the Crossing Team of Dragon Calendar Academy. That guy might not be able to move around among the branches, but jumping around fits well.

"Air combat light crossbow?" Anshir obviously thought of the same direction.

"You mean Longli Academy's air combat style?" Gail curled his lips, "It's a bit similar, but it's obviously better, much better!"

Anshir fell silent.

Although he was upset, he had to admit that Gail's idea of ​​"a little breakthrough" was more suitable to be a teacher of nymphs.
