Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 377 Is this considered fire reconnaissance?

Gordon took Hayata and the others to select a place to set up a trap near the pass, while Julius and Nadia quietly entered the canyon.

The two used shrubs, trees, and rocks as cover and moved forward vigilantly.

At the same time, Julius and the others were constantly observing the pass.

There are nearly vertical cliffs on both sides, which are almost impossible to climb. The narrowest part of the pass is only five or six meters, and the wide part is only more than ten meters. A large monster like the Thunder Wolf Dragon can only pass alone.

This narrow terrain surprised Julius and the others.

Even if there is a large group of Thunder Wolf Dragons in the valley, facing this canyon pass, they can only pass through in a queue, which can delay a lot of time.

As long as Gordon is not stupid, he will definitely set traps in these narrow places, so that the Thunder Wolf Dragon will waste more time trying to pass through.

The entire canyon is funnel-shaped. After leaving the pass at the entrance of the canyon, the space behind it becomes more and more open.

A large rift valley covering an area of ​​two to three square kilometers, surrounded by mountains, appeared in front of them.

Julius suddenly felt that the terrain of this deep valley was somewhat similar to Jieyun Village.

They are all surrounded by mountains and have narrow entrances.

"It's a pity that the terrain inside is uneven and the height difference is too big. Otherwise, it would be a perfect place to build a village."

Julius looked at the surrounding mountains and couldn't help but sigh: "These surrounding mountains are simply natural barriers."

Nadia looked around for a few times and said with a smile: "It's too troublesome for humans to go up and down the valley, but it's just right for monsters.

So, rather than saying this is a good place to build a village, it’s more a good place for monsters to nest.”

Faced with Nadia's arrogant speech, Julius did not argue much, but simply said: "Get ready."

Immediately, the two of them took out a colorful half-length cloak from their respective bags and put it on their bodies.

Nadia pulled up her hood and said with a smile: "To be honest, this thing developed by the master is really easy to use. It feels much more practical than those super cannons that can stuff a whole big wild boar king into it."

Already."

Julius still didn't reply. The way the two of them got along has always been like this, one often teased and the other often ignored.

But to be honest, Julius himself also liked this special cloak that was just invented.

This thing may seem inconspicuous, but it can provide a lot of help to hunters, especially in concealing their whereabouts.

It is made of a very special fabric layered together, which can largely block the sound of armor friction and eliminate the sound of branches and leaves scratching.

After being dipped and painted with a special dye, it can almost blend in with the trees and grass. At the same time, this dye will also emit a smell similar to plant sap, masking the hunter's own body odor.

At the same time, the hunter is camouflaged from hearing, vision, and smell.

Even if there are no obstacles around you, as long as you pull up your hood and squat still, the monsters passing by will easily ignore you as a bush.

As if invisible.

Therefore, Master Campbell, the inventor, named this cloak "invisibility clothing".

I didn't think too much about it, so I took it with me when I set out to Jieyun Village, and it just came in handy now.

Carefully wrapping his long silver hair in a hood, Julius made a "silence" gesture.

Nadia shrugged and said nothing more.

The two men leaned slightly and walked silently among the increasingly dense vegetation around them, like two non-existent shadows, slowly exploring the depths of the rift valley.

After walking forward for several hundred meters, Julius, who was responsible for opening the way, suddenly raised his fist and stopped.

Nadia looked at him, Julius made a few gestures, Nadia looked forward and immediately understood what he meant.

While exploring the depths of the rift valley, the terrain was also decreasing, and the slope of the road they had traveled before had reached nearly 30 degrees.

Further forward, the terrain suddenly becomes steeper. It is not impossible to get down, but it is likely that you will need to use your hands or even ropes to assist. It is almost impossible to continue to carry out stealth operations.

Nadia thought for a while, and also communicated with Julius using gestures.

She wanted to find a place with a clear view and conduct fire reconnaissance.

Julius thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

This is also one of their commonly used tactics. Once a situation like this occurs where it is impossible to approach covertly due to various reasons, fire reconnaissance is often the best choice.

Nadia glanced around and quickly found a good location.

From there forward, you can have a commanding view covering most of the rift valley, and there are also a few lush shrubs for hiding.

The two of them used the cover of vegetation to sneak past. Nadia got into the bushes and set up a light crossbow. Julius climbed to the crown of a nearby big tree to guard Nadia.

Nadia unfolded the scope, looked into the depths of the rift valley, and slowly began to search.

The terrain in the Rift Valley is complex and the vegetation is lush. It is not easy to find a suitable target, but Nadia is very patient.

It took her more than ten minutes to finally locate a suitable target.

That's a dog dragon.

Nadia was also a little surprised that there were carnivorous monsters like dog dragons in the rift valley where the Thunder Wolf Dragon lived.

But then I thought about it, if the Thunder Wolf Dragon had used this rift as its lair for a short time, this situation would not be surprising.

She loaded a dyed bullet magazine into the crossbow S, gently pulled the bolt mechanism to load the gun, then put the dog dragon in the rift below into the scope, held her breath and took aim carefully.

After a few seconds, she pulled the trigger.

With a soft sound like air leakage, the dye bomb flew out, passed through a space of hundreds of meters, and accurately hit the dog dragon.

The dye bomb exploded, the dye splashed, and the dog dragon, nicknamed the "Powder Velociraptor" by some hunters in the Old World, really turned pink.

The strong smell spreads.

"Ji Ga!" Dog Dragon let out a sharp scream.

Dye bombs do not have hard warheads and do little damage, but they can accurately fire crossbow bullets from such a distance. Even if they are made of water, hitting the body will still be very painful.

Nadia slowly retracted the half of the cannon that was sticking out of the bushes, and waited quietly.

As the barking of dogs and dragons sounded and the smell of dye spread, several roars suddenly came from the depths of the originally peaceful and peaceful rift valley.

What followed was the sound of heavy but swift footsteps, and the sound of branches and leaves being blown away.

The dog dragon raised its head in panic, looked around, then lowered its body and started to run away.

But before it could run a few steps, a huge green beast rushed out from the woods, bit it in its mouth, tore it left and right a few times, and then threw it heavily to the ground.

Before the dog dragon could scream in agony, it had already turned into a tattered corpse.

At this time, another Thunder Wolf Dragon came running and appeared in the sight of Nadia and the two.

It came to the body of the dog dragon, sniffed and kissed it a few times, and touched noses with the thunder wolf dragon that killed the dog dragon before, seeming to be exchanging feelings.

Then they went into the forest together and disappeared.

Nadia narrowed her eyes slightly, recalling some traces and details on the two Thunder Wolf Dragons, and said silently to herself:

"Currently confirmed, both ends."
