Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 164 Aziz’s Suggestion

After eating and drinking enough, the night in the cave camp was peaceful and peaceful.

The next morning, everyone extinguished the bonfire, cleaned up and replenished the camp with firewood, packed their luggage and started on the road again.

After learning yesterday that Aziz's goal was at the three forks of the river, Gordon and others decided to go with him for a while.

They happened to need to cross the river from that location, and it might be easier with Aziz, a sea dweller, to help guide them.

Feng Ying is looking forward to fishing, or in other words, she is looking forward to everything she has never experienced before.

After her persuasion, Gordon finally agreed to let everyone relax after fishing for a day after arriving at the big river, which could make up for her regret that she had never fished before.

It would be useless if she hadn't gone alone first, she would have wanted to ride on a hound.

Aziz is a very cheerful guy. The rainy weather, wet and muddy roads, and mosquitoes and flies everywhere cannot affect his good mood at all.

Obviously the swamp is not the sea, but as a sea dweller, he feels like a fish in water.

Thanks to the special structure of the sea dragon suit, it is not afraid of being soaked in water. From time to time, I can jump into the lake or river, touch a fish, catch a few shrimps, and eat them with the bamboo shoots and mushrooms that can be seen everywhere, which is a delicious meal.

Even Gordon and others who were just walking silently were affected by him.

Especially the youngest Feng Ying, following Aziz around, created a cheerful atmosphere like a vacation.

Gordon doesn't dislike this kind of atmosphere.

The cold and damp swamp gives people a depressing feeling. After a long time, everyone's mood became a little low, which is not a good sign.

——A depressed mood will make people tired more easily, and in the midst of laughter and laughter, everyone’s pace will speed up a bit.

Aziz is a spear wielder. It is said that this is because spears are more advantageous in water battles.

The weapon he uses is also very interesting. It is not the common cone-shaped knight's gun, but has a long and slender barrel and a bifurcated gun head.

This style looks like a trident at best, but looks like a harpoon at worst, and this may be the real reason why Aziz loves this "lantern fish dragon gun".

There is a saying that this forked spear with paralysis properties is so convenient for spearing fish that one doubts the original design intention of the designer.

People who are new to the swamp wetland may feel that it is a bit desolate. After all, large trees cannot easily survive in such an excessively humid environment.

But in fact, the products in the swamp are very rich.

In addition to various "edible" things, everyone also gained a lot.

Ancier collected a large number of plant fruits that would be used when mixing special ammunition, and Feng Ying was also lucky enough to dig up a light crystal in a cave somewhere.

With this strange crystal ore, she can strengthen her mixed lead shield ax II into an alloy shield axe, which is another step forward.

At the same time, Aziz, who was already a five-star hunter himself, gave her a suggestion.

"Little sister Feng Ying, if you encounter small shield crabs in the swamp, you can hunt as many as possible!"

"Huh?"

"How do you say it?" Gordon was also somewhat interested in Aziz's statement.

Generally speaking, apart from mission requirements, hunters will only focus on hunting certain monsters under one circumstance - to collect materials.

The materials may be collected to make equipment or to reconcile props. Here Gordon guesses it is the former.

She was still only a two-star Feng Ying, so there was no need to hunt specifically for the purpose of hoarding a large amount of certain props.

"Is it for the shield crab suit?" Ancier guessed.

Gordon had a similar idea. After thinking about it, there seemed to be no other equipment that could use shield crab materials.

"No, no, it's to wear some very unpopular armor."

Aziz shook his hand and said: "Lobster suit, have you heard of it?"

Gordon and Ancil looked at each other and shook their heads together.

"Hey, let's just say it's quite unpopular. The main effect of this set of armor is 'fishing celebrity'. If you are a hunter who likes fishing, you will definitely know about it.

It’s very convenient to wear it for fishing. I used it all the time before I changed to a sea dragon set.”

Gordon was speechless when he heard this. He wanted to tell Az directly. In fact, he had no intention of training Feng Ying to become a "fishing hunter".

"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!" Perhaps because of the dialect, Aziz seems to like to say conjunctions.

"The lobster suit is probably the strongest armor that can be made from monster materials below four stars. In terms of defensive power, the shield crab suit can't compare to it!"

"The defense is better than the shield crab suit?" Gordon was really surprised.

You know, the shield crab suit, which is famous for its sturdiness, has always been the first choice of defense hunters before the four-star level.

Aziz, who is a spear user himself and a hunter in the defensive system, knew exactly what Gordon was surprised about and explained in detail:

"Of course, generally spear users and gun users will still choose the shield crab suit. The shield crab suit has thick armor and is designed with the main concept of solid defense (defense performance +2).

The lobster suit is different. Although it is very strong, the armor is relatively scattered, so it will have an impact on the defense effect in the shield posture (defense performance -1).

However, it is not without its advantages. The lobster suit is very light and is very convenient for rolling and dodging (avoidance performance +2)!

Look at the shield ax used by little sister Feng Ying, but she is small, so she shouldn't be in the defensive position of holding a shield against the monster, right?

Taken together, the lobster suit is very suitable!"

No matter how "not doing his job", Aziz's five-star strength is without any water.

The same goes for eyesight.

After listening to Aziz's detailed explanation, Gordon also felt that this "lobster suit" was very suitable for Feng Ying.

It just so happened that he was also worried about Feng Ying's armor problem recently.

Although the little girl has just changed into the Blue Velociraptor suit not long ago, this set of equipment is completely sufficient at the two-star level.

But you must know that Feng Ying is no ordinary two-star hunter. She will often follow Gordon and the others to participate in three-star and even four-star missions!

In front of the flying dragon species, the defensive effect of the blue speed dragon suit is far from enough.

——Back then, his own blue velociraptor suit was destroyed by a fireball from the male fire dragon.

If the defensive power of the lobster suit is as good as Aziz described, it would be almost the same as his previous suit of strange bird suit filled with armor and jade.

With more armor jade reinforcement, the little guy can have a higher error tolerance rate when facing four-star monsters.

"Just as Azi said, we should pay attention when we encounter small shield crabs in the future, and help Feng Ying gather some materials."

Gordon patted Feng Ying's little head, feeling like an old father who was worried about his daughter.

"Which part of the shield crab's material is needed for that set of equipment? I will pay attention to it when shooting and don't break it." Ancier was also more enthusiastic.

Although he didn't say it on the surface, he actually regarded Feng Ying as a partner in his heart.

"No, hunting small shield crabs is not to obtain their materials. How should I say? Because shield crabs have no natural enemies and reproduce very quickly. The guild has always issued missions to defeat shield crab swarms.

Among the rewards from these crusade missions, there will be a special material called 'Small Shrimp Shell', which is one of the main materials for making lobster suits.

After you hunt the small shield crab, you can keep the crab shell as a voucher, and then just settle and exchange it directly after receiving the mission, which can save you the effort of running to the swamp several times."
