Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Climbing the Grand Canyon is not an easy task, so Gordon and the others had formulated a complete itinerary plan long ago with the advice and help of the group leader and research class leader.

On the first night, climb over the mountains and enter the Grand Canyon, then follow the bottom of the valley to the barrier formed by the second mountain chain, hide on the spot, spend the dangerous day while resting, and avoid those annoying acid dragons.

So far, the plan is going very smoothly.

Pork Chop even took the time to run to the location where the Strange Face Clan's graffiti was found the last time he and Gale came.

The paint is very stable, and nearly two months have passed, and the graffiti on the rock wall has not become blurry.

Pig Chop took out his little notebook and compared the patterns he copied at that time. The graffiti had not changed.

This is quite important information.

Pig Chop once asked Monro, the orc scholar, about this pattern, and the latter told him that it was a road sign left by the King of the Strange Face Tribe.

The purpose was to tell the tribes following it that it had gone to the other side of the Grand Canyon.

If it returns, the road sign should be modified. Since the road sign has not changed, it means that the King of the Strange Face Tribe is still in the north of the Grand Canyon.

If there is a chance, Pig Cho would really like to meet this king.

Because Mr. Monroe told it that it was under the teaching and leadership of this strange-faced king that many strange-faced tribes in the New World mastered the use of gunpowder weapons.

With the support of firearms, those strange-faced tribes jumped from the bottom of the ecological niche to the middle level or even higher. Sometimes large monsters have to go around when they see them.

It's legendary.

It was not until late at night, when all the acid pterosaurs fell into a deep sleep, that the hunters came out of the rock crevices where they were hiding.

According to the plan, they will climb the second mountain barrier this night and cross the Grand Canyon.

A few people quickly filled their stomachs with dry food, drank a bottle of force-moving medicine, and then started climbing.

This time we are climbing in the Grand Canyon. Considering the danger of being attacked, being fully armed is a must.

For hunters with outstanding physical strength, rock climbing is not too difficult with bare hands, but equipped with a full set of armor, weapons and luggage that weighs hundreds or even hundreds of kilograms, the difficulty and danger will increase sharply.

If a person can hold on, even a stone may not be able to hold on.

In order to avoid accidents, they connected each other with ropes.

Gale, who is best at climbing, is at the top, and Gordon, who has the heaviest equipment and is most prone to falling, is at the bottom.

They climbed steadily and cautiously, but when they reached the middle of the mountain rock wall, an accident happened.

The rock ledge Gordon was standing on couldn't bear the weight and shattered.

His fast enough reaction speed and strong hand strength allowed him to grab the edge of another rock immediately, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the already weak rock collapsed from the rock wall.

Gordon lost his support and almost fell, but fortunately there was a safety rope hanging him.

The three people, three cats and one dog above felt a huge force coming along the safety rope, pulling them down until they were suspended.

Fortunately, there were enough people. They gritted their teeth and held on for the most dangerous seconds. Gordon also returned to the rock wall in time and found a new strong enough support point, finally averting the danger.

Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, a series of strange noises came from below, causing their expressions to change drastically.

The sound of rock falling and rolling awakened several sleeping Acid Pterosaurs. They flapped their wings and took off. Their strange chirping sounds echoed in the Grand Canyon, and more Acid Pterosaurs were awakened by them.

The group of people quickly stopped moving and clung to the rock wall quietly, hoping that the group of sour pterosaurs would return to calm quickly and not discover them.

Unfortunately, the opposite happened.

The hunters wear invisibility clothes, and the hunting cats are small and inconspicuous.

But Gale, who was huge and carried a pile of pungent-smelling materials, quickly attracted the attention of an acid pterosaur not far away from it.

The attack begins.

"Gah——!"

"Jiye!"

More and more acid pterosaurs were attracted, and they kept grabbing at Gale Feng. However, Gale Feng, who was tied by a safety rope, could not dodge at all, so he had to roar, bared his canine teeth, turned around and gnawed in an attempt to fight back.

Under the fierce commotion, more acid pterosaurs were attracted. Sooner or later, the gale would be unable to hold on at this rate, and the situation became increasingly critical.

At this time, there was no other choice. Gordon gritted his teeth and shouted: "Ancil! Gale! Fire back! Shoot down one end after another!

Pork chop! Watch for opportunities to use flashbangs! "

Since everyone was climbing on a nearly vertical rock wall, at most they could only have one hand free to control the weapon.

With great difficulty, Ancil held the Shigure under his arm. He couldn't even think about aiming at the target and shooting accurately. With the size and recoil of the heavy crossbow, it was God's blessing that it wouldn't be knocked down.

However, Gale, who is a light crossbow user, has better luck. In this extreme situation, it is feasible to hold the light crossbow with one hand and fire it, but it will not last long and the shooting accuracy will also be affected.

Fortunately, the distance was close enough, and a large number of targets were less than 20 meters above her head. With continuous fire, two acid pterosaurs were quickly shot down by her.

"Pay attention to the ammunition!" Anxier shouted as a reminder.

He was very lucky that he had loaded the heavy crossbow with ammunition in advance. The nine-round normal ammunition capacity of Shigure was quite considerable.

But the problem is that he can't reload at all!

It's difficult to hold a heavy crossbow with one hand, and you have to hold your body in place with the other hand. How do you reload it?

"Haha! Watch it!"

Gale laughed loudly and performed a stunt of holding the magazine in his mouth to change the ammunition, which made Anhir look at him for a moment.

He wanted to imitate it, but the magazine slot of the heavy crossbow was far away and he couldn't reach it even if he tried to use his mouth.

With Gale as a relatively stable firepower point, Gale's pressure was lessened.

Under the roar of continuous fire, more acid pterosaurs gathered, but the crisis was still not resolved.

"That's it now, meow!" Pig Chop yelled.

It, Pandan, and Sandstone, who had just become a hunting cat for two days, threw the flash bombs in their paws.

The sudden burst of bright light swept everywhere, and the effect of this wave of flash bomb offensive was unexpectedly good.

Almost all the acid pterosaurs that gathered were stunned by the attack, and most of them lost their balance. They screamed and fell against the rock wall, falling to the bottom of the valley.

The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground and the heartbreaking sound of bones breaking could be heard endlessly.

The acid pterosaurs that besieged them were all wiped out immediately.

Gordon was stunned for a second, and then shouted: "Great job!"

"Now, keep going up!" Hayata reminded loudly.

Gale, who was afraid of being bitten by the Acid Pterosaur, let out a low roar and climbed up with all his strength. With the safety rope dragged along, the hunters' climbing speed also increased a lot.

The acid pterosaurs further up the canyon are constantly being attracted.

But what attracts them is not the people, cats and dogs struggling to climb on the rock wall, but the corpses of acid pterosaurs at the bottom of the valley with broken muscles and bones, exuding a strong smell of blood.

They are like a group of greedy vultures, swarming down to snatch and eat those members of their own species who may not have completely died.

At this time, the hunters didn't care about the hidden sounds, they all broke out at the fastest speed and headed towards the top of the mountain with all their strength.

A long time passed like this, and when the sky became faintly silvery, they finally climbed out of the Grand Canyon and reached the top of the second mountain ridge.

The long climb at full speed made the hunters' chests rise and fall violently, and they greedily breathed in the moist air on the peak in the early morning.

Until they set their sights on the world across the Grand Canyon.

At this moment, the hunters held their breath as if their throats were being strangled.
