Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

"Are you really okay?" The pork chop was on Gordon's lap, and his voice was trembling as he listened to the whistling wind in his ears.

At this time, Gordon and the others were training the ability of those acid pterosaurs to fly with people, and they were afraid of crashing even if they had to carry them with them.

Looking up at the Acid Pterosaur flying steadily above his head, Gordon chuckled, "Don't worry, the Acid Pterosaur's size and strength are enough to carry us.

The previous crashes were just because they were not used to flying with heavy objects. Well, it might also be because they had a back bone, but they are fine now. "

Anyway, he, Ted, and Ancier beat up all the acid pterosaurs together every time they crashed.

After more than half a month like this, at least when I saw a few of them, the acid pterosaurs were relatively well-behaved.

The commander-in-chief obviously knows what they are busy with recently and is relatively supportive. After all, once the acid pterosaurs are trained and bred, the entire investigation team will benefit from them.

Do you really think that the hunters and investigators of the investigation team like to travel lightly? It's not that I'm afraid that if I bring too many things, the Winged Dragon won't be able to support them.

Anhil, who habitually prepared at least twice the amount of ammunition, could only break this habit by pinching his nose unless he let Gale chase him down with the ammunition box on his back.

This is also the main reason why Ancil is particularly enthusiastic about training the Acid Pterosaur.

Now that the training has begun to bear fruit, Gordon and the others are embarrassed to stay at the stronghold and have taken over some commissions one after another. They also plan to practice it and see how the Acid Pterodactyl performs when flying with people in the wild.

Turns out, the performance is pretty good.

The Sour Winged Dragon flew steadily, and in just over a quarter of an hour, they had arrived at the camp near the ancient giant tree.

After releasing the hook lock and landing on the ground, the Acid Pterosaur regained its freedom, fluttering its wings and rushing into the air.

"It won't just run away, meow?" Zhupa shook his body and looked at the sky.

Gordon squinted his eyes and stared at the light and graceful Acid Pterosaur hovering in the air for a while, "Probably not.

Although we beat them hard, we fed them plenty of fish and meat every day. Life in the wild is not such a beautiful thing.

Moreover, they have left scent marks in the dragon shed, which means that they now use the dragon shed as their nest, where else can they fly?

Go back to the Grand Canyon and grab some bones from your fellow tribesmen? "

"Meow too." Pig Chop also felt relieved.

One person and one cat found a relatively clean place to sit down. Gordon spread out the hunter's notebook and took out the commission sandwiched in it.

——

Survey Mission: Work on setting up camp

Remuneration: 1800z

Mission location: Ancient Tree Forest

Commander-in-Chief: The survey team has decided to strengthen the development of the ancient tree forest, so it plans to build a new camp. Please look for a suitable location to set up the camp.

——

"Compared with the mission documents from the Old World, they are so concise." Zhupa muttered in a low voice.

Gordon looked at the temporary handwritten receipt with a strange expression.

The mission reward of 1800z corresponds to almost a two-star level mission. It has been a long time since he received such a low-difficulty mission.

However, the nature of the New World Investigation Team and the Hunter Guild are different. It is normal that there are not so many suitable tasks to choose from. This investigation task was obtained from the Commander-in-Chief.

Fortunately, the cost of living in Xingchen Stronghold is very low, and the members of the investigation team are also paid, otherwise this small commission would not be able to support their group of hunters.

Gordon unfolded the map of the Ancient Tree Forest.

In addition to the existing camp near the star stronghold where he is currently located.

The survey team plans to set up a camp in the northeast, west, northwest of the ancient tree forest, and on the top of the ancient giant tree.

The location of the western camp has been determined, it is the temporary camp used when hunting the Terror Tyrannosaurus.

It was originally one of the campsites of the Fish Basket Clan, but the survey team helped them solve the problem of the Angry Tyrannosaurus, so Deter's leader Yu Gu generously gave this treetop camp to the survey team.

Thanks to the efforts of the members of the fourth group, the western camp has been established. If we go to the western part of the forest in the future, we will have a stable foothold.

The goal of his trip was to find a suitable place to set up a camp on the top of the ancient giant tree that was as huge as a mountain.

"But the camp we are in now is only a few kilometers away from the ancient giant tree in a straight line? Is it necessary to set up an extra camp on the top of the ancient giant tree?" Zhupa was a little confused.

"There's a reason for this."

Gordon took out some supplies from the supply box, put them into the prop bag, and explained with a smile:

"In the meeting not long ago, the material team leader reported that the residential area expansion project has come to an end, and the construction plan of the waterwheel and cable car can be put on the agenda.

That plan was proposed by the leader of the second phase team. It aimed to use water power to improve the forging efficiency of the processing house, and at the same time, it could also drive the cable car to facilitate communication between the various levels of the stronghold.

For this project, a large amount of wood, metal ore and other resources need to be collected.

This is the purpose of adding a camp. Rather than making it easier for the hunters to hunt, it is actually more to facilitate the members of the supply squad to collect supplies.

A lot of high-quality wood can be collected from the top of the ancient giant tree. Considering the efficiency issue, the commander-in-chief is planning to set up a camp there.

Our mission this time is not only to find a suitable camp site, but also to confirm whether there are dangerous monsters living nearby and report these together. "

"Meowing like this is quite troublesome." Piglet scratched his ears.

"It's really troublesome, I probably won't be able to make it in one day." Gordon smiled and pulled up the prop bag, "But it's quite interesting, isn't it?

We didn’t have the chance to climb to the top of that super giant tree before, which is a pity. This time we can take our time and walk around! "

"Meow too!" The pork chop jumped onto Gordon.

Gordon blew the whistle, and the Acid Pterodactyl swooped down, leading them to fly toward the ancient giant tree that looked like Optimus Prime.

On the desert Gobi Desert of Big Ant Mound, a small convoy moved forward slowly.

They are the transportation team of the fourth phase of the regiment, responsible for transporting the ore, leather and other materials needed by the investigation team collected from the desert area to the star stronghold.

This transportation line has existed for decades, and hunters come regularly to clean up dangerous monsters along the way. It is a relatively safe line.

But this is a new continent where the fire of civilization is not visible.

The so-called safety is only relative, so the convoy must be accompanied by hunters as escorts throughout the journey to avoid accidents.

The hunter responsible for this escort was Hunter.

As the youngest hunter in the investigation team, he is not strong enough to deal with those powerful flying dragons.

But if it was just a small monster, or an opponent of the level of a sand dragon, he thought there would be no problem.

The convoy was passing through a narrow pass between a section of sand dunes. Suddenly, there was a burst of noise from the tops of the dunes on both sides.

"Gahbaaaah!"

"Wooga!"

"It's the Strange Face Clan!" a driver exclaimed.

These strange-faced tribesmen with red skin and less than the height of an ordinary person's thighs slid down the sand dunes in groups, shouting and surrounding the convoy.

The team members were a little panicked, but not too scared.

Based on past experience, the strange-faced tribe in the New World is not as ferocious as their close relatives in the Old World.

If they don't get too close, they rarely attack humans, and hunters generally don't attack them. For decades, they have maintained a non-intrusive relationship with the investigation team.

How are you today?

Seeing that the strange-faced tribe was about to rush into the convoy, Hunter couldn't care so much anymore, so he drew out his sword and started to attack them.

However, at this moment, several strange-faced tribesmen raised their blow darts at the same time.

Hunter was unable to dodge, and his unprotected chest was hit by two darts coated with paralyzing toxin.

Suddenly his whole body twitched and he fell to the ground numb.

Ps.

This is how I understand it. The ancient tree forest in the game can only be said to be a small part of the ancient tree forest, that is, a small area around the ancient tree.

For example, the forest where the Tyrannosaurus was hunted before was two to three hundred kilometers away, and it was already off the map.

In fact, all the maps described before are the same. Many places cover tens of thousands of square kilometers, but what can really be reflected in the game is only a small area.

So there is no need to deliberately substitute some terrains, campsites, etc.
