Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 224 Tactics Modification

"How's the ammunition stock?" Julius asked immediately after Nadia came over.

Nadia didn't have to count at all, the information about how much ammunition was left was clear in her mind.

"It's enough. It's just that there are not many flame bombs left, and the number of penetrating bombs is still sufficient, and the shotguns and armor-piercing grenades haven't been used yet."

"Well, we won't go back to the camp, we will rest on the spot and continue hunting in twenty minutes."

Several of them were veterans and knew exactly what to do when. They were preparing themselves, sharpening knives, eating, adjusting armor straps, and sorting out ammunition, all in an orderly manner.

Seeing that the two companions and the pork chop were almost ready, Julius said: "Let's adjust our tactics for the last hunting of the beetle."

In fact, this is the main reason why Julius announced his temporary retreat - tactical adjustment.

"The hormonally controlled beetles are more difficult to stop than we originally expected, and once we let them fuse together, we will become very passive."

A small part of the "passive" in Julius's words refers to the combat level, and a large part refers to the fact that the heavy beetles use the piercing beetles as portable food.

If their goal is just to hunt, then it doesn't matter. The heavy beetles can also speed up the process of hunting the beetles, but the main purpose of their trip is to collect the sharp horns of the beetles.

The corpses have been chewed up, so what else is there to collect?

"So I plan to focus on preventing the two from merging, on the side of the heavy beetle."

Julius looked at Pork Chop and said, "Pork Chop, you did a good job before. You will continue to use the flash bomb at the right time. Don't be afraid of failure. It might just be that the heavy beetle was just lucky."

"Understood, meow!"

"Nadia and I deal with the heavy beetles together. We are always ready to use armor-piercing grenades and shotguns at close range to interrupt the heavy beetles when they release their hormonal odor.

I'm not sure if this would be useful, but considering that the heavy beetles are likely using increased levels of hormones in the air to control the beetles, it should be a positive."

"Understand, understand."

"Gordon you"

"I deal with the beetle alone and kill it as quickly as possible, right."

"That's right."

"Does Pork Chop have a trap? It's best to use a paralysis trap. I'm not sure how effective the hole trap will be against the flying beetles." Gordon looked at Pork Chop.

"There's a meow!" Pig Chop took out a paralysis trap from the small bucket where props were stored behind him and handed it to Gordon.

"Why didn't I think of using a trap before?" Julius held his forehead with some blame.

"I'm not sure yet about the effectiveness of the trap. I can only say that if I try it, the guy almost never lands, which is really troublesome."

"Okay, are you all ready? Let's kill the last beetle."

The hunters quietly returned to the area where they fought before.

After double confirmation with Nadia's scope and pig nose, the heavy beetle had left and there were no other monsters nearby.

Gordon and the others immediately started stripping the beetle carcasses on the ground.

Halfway through the stripping process, they couldn't help but feel lucky.

After the beetle dies, the corrosive liquid stored in special glands in its abdomen flows out, which greatly speeds up the decay of the beetle's body.

If it had been later, perhaps the sharp corners would not have been collected from these two corpses.

Counting yesterday's thorough beetle, we have collected three sharp corners during this trip. Although there is still a gap from the five originally expected, a few people at least have a sense of confidence.

The effect of the dye ball clearly marked the direction and distance of the heavy beetle for the hunters, and they began to pursue it.

A few minutes later, the thick and huge dark green figure appeared in their sight again.

Also appearing together was a thru beetle flying slowly around the heavy beetle.

The distance between the two is somewhat close.

Gordon thought for a moment, took out the only flash bomb in his prop bag, shook it and showed it to Julius and the others.

His companions immediately understood what he meant.

Gordon is ready to use flash bombs to create chaos and open up the situation.

There are actually more variables in doing this, but there is no better way at the moment, so Julius made an "action" gesture.

The three of them approached as silently as possible. When they came to the two beetles, Gordon suddenly stood up and threw a flash bomb.

His sudden appearance attracted the attention of the Heavy Beetle and the Thor Beetle at the same time, and the strong light burst out at this moment, just covering them both.

"Zizzizi!"

"hiss--!"

The Thor Beetle and the Heavy Beetle neighed, and the three of them and the cat rushed out at the same time, approaching their respective opponents.

Gordon ignored it and immediately began to prepare the True Charge Slash when he came to Toru Beetle. He hoped to chop out the True Charge Slash before Toru Beetle recovered from the chaos.

Julius and the others came to the side of the heavy beetle and launched an attack from the side far away from Gordon and the beetle.

——They need to lure the heavy beetle away to prevent this big guy from interfering with Gordon's hunting of the piercing beetle.

Deprived of its vision, the heavy beetle fell into chaos and reflexively launched a counterattack in the direction of the attack. It first pushed its forelimbs sideways and pushed forward a certain distance, then raised its full moon tail and poked randomly.

The distance between the heavy beetle and the thorough beetle was widened, and the battle was initially successful.

Gordon, who was not disturbed, successfully released the True Charged Slash, giving Toru Beetle a hard blow.

This time, he did not choose the most vulnerable abdominal part of the beetle as the attack location, but aimed at the wings of the beetle.

If you can successfully eliminate the flying ability of the beetle, it will be easy to cook whatever you want.

The explosive knife Kai fell heavily and successfully chopped off one of the two pairs of wings of the Toru Beetle. The Toru Beetle let out a sharp hiss.

Gordon thought that this would make the beetle lose its ability to fly, but the reality was much more difficult than he expected.

The Thor Beetle can lift a heavy beetle weighing hundreds of tons with its four wings, and the "output" of each wing is astonishingly large.

Just by slightly adjusting the flapping speed, the three wings can still fully meet its flight needs.

Rolling to avoid the scythe-legged attack of the Thor Beetle, Gordon turned and ran - inspired by his previous success in luring the Heavy Beetle into the wall.

It is indeed risky to use this trick on heavy beetles with broad bodies, but it is perfect for dealing with full-bodied beetles.

As long as you are prepared, it is not difficult to avoid the straight-line collision of the beetle. What's more, this guy has a broken wing, so his flight flexibility cannot be completely unaffected.

Facing the hunter who turned around and "escaped", the beetle flattened its body out of habit, its wings vibrated at high speed, and began to accelerate for a straight-line collision.

Gordon had already arrived in front of a huge rock at this time, turned around and stared at the beetle, getting ready.

When the beetle flew within ten meters, he decisively rolled to the side and steadily avoided this powerful blow, but his flexibility was quite worrisome.

The beetle had no time to react. The sharp insect horns were like arrows shot into an arrow target, and they penetrated deeply into the rock. It was difficult to break free for a while.

Gordon wanted to give its wings another blow to see if this guy could still fly after losing all the wings on one side.

Unfortunately, the strong wind caused by the high-speed trembling wings made it difficult for him to get close.

In desperation, Gordon had no choice but to do the next best thing, go around behind the beetle, aim at the fat belly of the insect, and start to accumulate strength.
