Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 455 Inside the Lava Cave

The next day, at dawn, the hunter and his party left the camp and set off.

Carrying a large amount of ammunition and supplies, they were not very fast. It was indeed dangerous to enter the hunting ground with such a nearly full load.

However, considering Hilda and Ancil's hunter levels, as well as the ecological level of the area outside the volcano, this level of risk is acceptable.

But even so, Hilda and the others still showed a considerable degree of caution and always maintained a vigilant formation to guard against any monster surprise attacks.

Under normal circumstances, the shooter should be the one protected in the safest position in the center of the team. After all, the shooter's self-protection ability is relatively weak when faced with emergencies.

However, at this time, the person receiving protection in the center of the team was Feng Ying.

This made Feng Ying feel very strange. Why did she say she was also a shield and ax user?

Among the four types of melee hunters who use shields, except for the sword wielder, who usually serves as a shortstop or supporter, the gun wielder, the spear wielder, and the shield and ax wielder are all standard vanguards.

I am an avant-garde, protected in the middle by two shooters, one behind the other. Isn't it too bad?

So, during a short break midway, she raised this point with captain Hilda, hoping to adjust her position.

Hilda looked around to confirm the terrain, then compared it with the previous location of the cave entrance, and quickly confirmed their current location.

Hilda was extremely serious about this matter, "Feng Ying, have you ever been hunting in volcanic areas?"

It is difficult to walk normally on this slope without relying on ropes and tools. The hunters simply sit down and slide all the way down.

Therefore, the volcanic zone is one of the few places where there is not much difference between day and night and we can operate throughout the night. We will probably have to hunt for a long time this time.

"no."

The hunters spread their limbs one after another, slowed down their sliding speed, and finally stopped and stood up.

After passing through several hot caves and corridors, the surroundings suddenly became cooler.

Feng Ying believes that with her own strength, not to mention entering the lava cave inside the mountain, but at least in this area outside the volcano, she is relatively capable, right?

Everyone, please unload the excess ammunition and supplies, we will take turns to rest until tomorrow morning, and then set off to start hunting."

The hunters drank cold drinks one after another, and Feng Ying also fed Hu Hu some.

Although the volcano is hot and sleeping on the ground is not really comfortable, the hunters have long been used to it.

Most of the day passed, and Feng Ying didn't even have a chance to draw her weapon. The group arrived at Camp No. 2.

She wanted to take out her weapon and chop something down right now, even a big wild boar.

She made a gesture - go east.

This is a golden-red world, with waterfalls, rivers, and lakes made of viscous lava everywhere, and even the rocks on the ground are faintly glowing red.

Considering the extremely hot temperatures and complex terrain, sufficient physical strength is very important and must be recharged.”

Feng Ying couldn't help but let out a soft "Wow!"

Feng Ying nodded quickly to show that she understood.

After checking the equipment and props for the last time, they finally officially started hunting. Under Ancier's guidance, they arrived at a hillside not far from Camp No. 2.

If the hunters' greaves had not been well insulated and they had drank cold drinks in advance, their feet would have been burned by walking on such a ground.

The group of people walked forward slowly, and after walking out of the narrow corridor, the front suddenly became clear.

The journey to Camp 2 was uneventful. We encountered two monsters on the way, but they did not pose any threat to the team.

Are you an avant-garde? No, you are a truck.

"Due to the presence of volcanic ash, the volcanic zone is always dark, especially the inner areas of the mountain, which are cut off from sunlight. The light basically comes entirely from the lava.

After getting far away from the cave entrance, the light in the cave became very dim, and even the companions around him could not see clearly. Fortunately, this situation did not last long.

Ancier's statement was even more unsparing.

"Eat now, and then you two go to bed first. You will take shifts in six hours and leave tomorrow morning."

Toothhound Amber acted more directly than him. He put his nose into the water and smelled it, then directly stuck out his tongue and licked the water and drank.

"Slow down." Hilda warned.

Hilda refused, for a simple reason.

Hilda walked around the temporary camp and nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad, quite good. Although it's open air, it shouldn't rain in the short term, so you can camp.

It's true that you are a swordsman, but you are the weakest, so you should just stay in the middle of the team.

"This is unreasonable. Why should there be such an underground river in a volcano? The river water has not been evaporated or polluted by lava?" Ancier really couldn't understand.

The team took action, and they quickly passed through the scorching hot cave and headed towards the area where Hilda had found the blaster dragon.

Once Hilda, who was powerful, had a high status, and had been an instructor for many years, became serious, she was much more attractive than Gordon Anhill and the others, and Feng Ying couldn't help but tighten her neck.

The two giant bees were shot and exploded by Ancil before they could fly close. The Pterosaurus, which was hovering above the team, looking for an opportunity to take advantage, was also shot down by Hilda with an arrow.

Feng Ying was too lazy to think. She took two steps into the underground river, which was no deeper than her thighs. She glanced at Hilda secretly. Seeing that the latter had no objection, she simply pretended to fall and fell in.

They walked into the cave entrance and found that the cave was not flat, but a steep slope of nearly 45 degrees.

As it continues downward, the temperature gets higher and higher, and there is an orange-red light similar to fire emerging from the front - it is the golden-red light coming from the hot lava.

Another night passed, and this was already the fourth day since they arrived in the volcanic zone.

Feng Ying was caught in the middle again by two fellow shooters, but this time she didn't dwell on anything. To be honest, this legendary hell-like environment made her feel uncomfortable.

There is a steaming cave entrance here that leads to the lava cave inside the mountain.

The water was not deep, nor was it urgent. Anhil leaned over and touched the water with his fingertips, "There is no corrosion, it should be fresh water, and the water temperature is not too high."

"I feel like I can set off after a short rest. It's still very early and I'm not tired," Feng Ying muttered.

Feng Ying could feel that the terrain was gradually going downwards.

"I'm in front, stay alert."

The reason for the lower temperature here is simple. An underground river meanders in front of them.

She couldn't help but feel a little worried. It was already so hot here. If she continued to move forward, would it become more and more exaggerated? There would be lava under her feet and there would be no place to walk.

However, things turned out to be exactly the opposite of what she thought.

Feng Ying returned to the center of the team angrily. At the same time, she kept thinking in her heart that when her hunter level catches up in the future, she will mock you as a "weak shooter"!

"Let's have a cold drink."

Of course, this coolness is relative, but compared to the previous ghost place where you would be roasted and fucked if you didn't drink cold drinks, this place where you can't see the lava is really cool.

"Nothing said"

If you are going to cross the river anyway, take a quick dip and treat it like a shower.

Amber also jumped in.

Seeing a man and a dog splashing in the shallow water, Hilda was angry and amused.

"Get up quickly, we have to hurry."

Ps. The maps of Rise are very unscientific.
