Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 183 Cutting off the Queen and Breaking Through

Gordon wanted to run faster and faster.

He obviously didn't feel heavy, and he didn't feel tired even after taking the medicine. The continuous burning sensation was insignificant in the eyes of him who was used to being injured.

But holding two huge gunpowder rocks in his arms, he ran unsteadily, like a big bear standing and walking, and his speed could never be faster.

Ancier was able to pass in front of Gordon, but he didn't dare to let go and run.

His mission was to escort, not to race with Gordon, so what if he ran back to the camp alone? He still had to find a way to escort Gordon, or the mission items in Gordon's arms, back safely.

However, thanks to Julius's activity.

Although the two of them crossed the lakeside with great fanfare and made a lot of noise, they also attracted the attention of a few lava beasts who were still lazily soaking in the lava lake.

But regardless of the number or the distance between them, it should be difficult to directly pose a threat to Gordon who is being transported.

You should be able to pass this level successfully.

Just when the two of them were relieved, something unexpected happened.

An uncomfortable "buzzing" sound penetrated into their ears, and Anhil looked up suddenly.

Several huge insects with a wingspan of more than one meter were flying towards them in a roundabout way with their transparent wings trembling.

"Damn it, it's a giant bee!" Ancier cursed in a low voice, "Hiding on the stalactites, didn't he get discovered?"

Gordon didn't stop, he still gritted his teeth and ran forward.

Compared with the flying giant bees, the lava beasts crawling out of the magma lake are the real threat.

He believed that Ancier would help him get rid of these annoying "little" bugs.

Julius's previous instruction of "Don't fire" was mainly aimed at the lava beasts, not so much about these intruding bugs.

The sling of the crystal rifle slipped from Ancier's shoulder, and the huge ballista folded behind his back unfolded while running, and in an instant it was ready to be activated.

It only took Ancier less than two seconds to go from running to a half-crouched sniper stance.

"boom!"

It has no special effects, but the lv3 normal bullets, which are the most stable and do good damage, shoot out and smash a giant bee that is about to approach Gordon into pieces.

The green monster juice splashed on Gordon, and Gordon didn't have time to deal with it. Now he didn't need to use his brain, he only needed to move his legs.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Several more explosions sounded, and all the giant bees were eliminated in the blink of an eye.

How annoying! Is the purpose of these insects’ existence to cause trouble for hunters?!

Anhil cursed secretly, put away the heavy crossbow, and started running wildly again.

Taking advantage of his opportunity to fire, several lava beasts had already approached very close to him.

What's even more troublesome is that Yan Gelong, who was originally leisurely and leisurely, also cast a curious look at this place. He even swung his slender body and swam in the magma, approaching Ancier and the others.

'I've never heard a "bang bang" sound like that, it's very interesting.'

Just when Ancil was hesitating whether he should catch up with Gordon and continue to protect him, or run in another direction to divert Yan Gelong's attention.

A sharp explosion came from the other side of the lava lake.

——Julius, noticing the dangerous situation here, directly fired the sonic bomb.

At such a long distance, Yan Gelong certainly wouldn't be dizzy, but it also managed to ignite its curiosity again.

‘Is it louder over here?’

Yan Gelong, swimming in the magma, began to turn around.

Although Julius is already a five-star hunter, who can guarantee that he can face Yan Gelong under the siege of a large group of lava beasts?

This guy is just trying his best to create opportunities for himself.

Gordon gritted his teeth and moved as fast as he could. Finally, he rushed out of the space inside the mountain where the lava lake was located, and arrived at the foot of the mountain outside the mountain.

The relative temperature here is relatively low, which is a temperature that will make lava beasts feel uncomfortable. They will not chase them here, they are already safe.

At this time, Anhil caught up from behind.

Gordon couldn't help but stop and turned around: "We should go back and help him. That kind of number of lava beasts, plus the Yan Ge Dragon, are in the environment they are most accustomed to. It is too dangerous!"

Ancier shook his head without hesitation, "No, we should send the gunpowder rock back to the camp immediately. That guy never does anything uncertain. Giving up the gunpowder rock and going back now is a waste of the opportunity he created."

The current dispute is meaningless, and Gordon also understands that what Ancil said makes more sense.

But now he had the feeling that he had abandoned his companions and was running away alone.

This feeling was very uncomfortable, but there was no time for him to dwell on it.

After taking a deep breath, Gordon gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's run faster!"

Julius really felt bad.

In order to protect the two Gordons, he lost his best chance to escape.

When the effect of the forcible drug gradually wore off, he was no longer able to distance himself through more ghost-human sprints like before.

Faced with the pursuit and interception of dozens of lava beasts, he could only choose to turn on the ghost form for a short time at the most dangerous time, break through the blockade, and then immediately exit the ghost state to restore his endurance.

Feeling the sight from Yan Gelong behind him, Julius was also helpless.

If he could take action, he would have almost eliminated this group of lava beasts in a guerrilla attack.

How can it be like now, where I can only rely on my own speed and reach to find the slightest gap in the lava beasts, and move around.

But thanks to him not taking action to harm the lava beast, Yan Gelong just regarded him as some kind of harmless and strange animal, such as a spirit deer or something.

So he allowed these cubs to "play" with him and practice his hunting skills.

If you swing your swords and show your fangs.

Then this mission of collecting gunpowder rocks can only be transformed into a hunting mission.

He even hopes to see the Boomer Dragon being attracted now.

Compared to this "harmless little animal" like myself, guys like the Boomerosaurus should probably arouse the Yango Dragon's vigilance more.

Perhaps the strategy proposed by Gordon before to actively lure the Boomerosaurus is the correct one?

"Gah!"

Another lava beast stopped in front of him.

Julius frowned, raised his swords, entered ghost form again, and sprinted!

Just as they were about to break out of the encirclement for the umpteenth time, the two lava beasts next to them opened their long pointed mouths at the same time, spitting out two fist-sized balls of magma.

These slow lava masses were easy to dodge, but as he dodged sideways one after another, his sprint was interrupted, and more lava beasts took this opportunity to gather around him, surrounding him.

Due to the serious loss of stamina, it is no longer possible to "escape" the siege by transforming into a ghost.

Julius pursed his lips.

He reached into his prop bag and planned to use the flash bomb as his final trump card.

This thing was originally intended to be reserved for the Boomer Dragon, but it may not be easy to use against lava beasts - after all, flash bombs can only blind and confuse monsters, but they cannot stun monsters like sonic bombs.

However, at this moment, the muffled sound of a ballista firing could be heard in the distance.

The ear-piercing whistling sound came from far to near. It was the sharp sound of a huge armor-piercing grenade piercing the air.

An armor-piercing grenade was nailed to the ground a dozen meters outside the lava beast's encirclement. After a short delay, it exploded.

The lava beasts who were very sensitive to sound shook their heads and looked at the location where the armor-piercing grenade exploded.

Julius took this opportunity, resisting the discomfort that felt like his heart was about to burst, and briefly activated his ghost-human transformation again. He used a long-distance forward and sliding step, knocked away the two lava beasts, and rushed out of the siege.
