Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes
Chapter 53: Respective Preparations
Perhaps due to scheduling reasons, Gordon and Urshula did not see Tikki at the counter today. It was Madge who received them.
This waitress, who was "gentle" and "reliable" in her words and deeds, first bowed politely and then looked at Urshula standing in front.
"Miss Oshula, are you ready to accept the commission to hunt the Peach-haired Beast King this time?"
"Of course! Is it? Is it? Don't tell me that I'm going to kill you."
Madge smiled gently, held out the large and heavy task list, and said with a smile:
"Yes, thanks to Miss Urshula's activity, there was even a rumor in the meeting hall in a nearby town that 'there is an expert in handling peach beasts in Minagard'.
Now in the entire Xiuret area, as far as Melchita City, whenever there is news of the Peach-Hair Beast King's rebellion, mission documents will be delivered to us as soon as possible."
Urshula: "..."
Gordon on the side suppressed his laughter by clearing his throat and coughing.
Miss March's words were polite and sincere, and there was absolutely no sarcastic connotation in her words, but it was precisely this that made the statement of "an expert in dealing with peach-haired beasts" particularly jarring.
After taking a deep breath and calming down, Urshula took out his hunter's notebook and put it on the counter along with Gordon's copy.
"Gordon and I teamed up to participate in this mission. We may need to ask Miss March to notify the president for us, otherwise Gordon will not be able to participate in the three-star mission."
As a "two-and-a-half-star" hunter, Gordon has two necessary conditions for participating in a three-star mission. The mission must be led by a three-star or above hunter. All that remains is the approval of the president.
"The president happens to be in the assembly hall, please wait a moment."
Madge took the two hunters' notes and mission documents, left the counter, and headed to the second floor of the assembly hall where the president's office was located.
It didn't take long, about ten minutes, before Madge came back. Judging from her expression, the application went very smoothly.
Gordon didn't find it strange either.
As Oshula herself said, her skills in hunting the Peach-haired Beast King have become so perfect that even if Gordon is a loser, she can still lead him. The president does not need to worry about their safety at all.
"The president has approved it, do you need to register the task for the two of you now?" Madge said while handing over the task document.
"Both of you, please confirm the mission content."
——
Hunting mission: The pot-bellied man in the forest (★★★)
Mission content: Hunt the Peach-haired Beast King
Remuneration: 7500 gold
Mission location: Kurbutios Wetland
Monsters that may appear: Peach-haired beast, Blue Velociraptor, Strange-faced Tribe
Limited time: 15 days
Those pink guys have destroyed the mushroom trees and mushrooms in the forest into a mess. Not only now, but also in the future, we will not be able to collect high-quality mushrooms!
In order to save everyone's dining table, let's quickly get rid of the greediest guy!
——
"Well, there's no problem on my side, but we can't set off until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest, okay?" Urshula took the task document and glanced at it quickly, then passed it to Gordon and looked at
Madge confirmed.
"No problem. The assembly hall just received this commission yesterday. There is still plenty of time. You two have enough time to prepare." Madge smiled and nodded.
"That's okay with me." Gordon handed the document back to Urshula.
This commission is very routine. Except for the extra column "Monsters may appear" that makes Gordon a little concerned, the other parts are quite satisfactory.
The experienced waitress saw through the doubt in Gordon's eyes and explained with a smile: "Speaking of which, it's all thanks to Mr. Yamos's suggestion.
This new column on the mission document is mainly to inform hunters of the dangers they may face during hunting, so as to avoid bad things happening due to insufficient intelligence."
Gordon was stunned when he heard this.
This extra reminder is indeed a good precaution.
Take the previous mission of the Sacrifice of the Strange-Faced Clan as an example. If the mission document had indicated that the King of the Strange-Faced Tribe might be present, he would never have taken it.
I still feel a little scared when I think about it. If Senior Yamos hadn't happened to notice it at that time and went out of his way to help, his bones would have been served on the Qimian Clan's dining table.
Under Madge's skillful operation, the task registration was completed quickly.
Urshula did not continue to take Gordon to drink or chat, but returned to his room to prepare for the next hunt.
Unlike melee hunters like Gordon, you only need to bring weapons and equipment, recovery medicine, food and other necessary props when you go hunting.
The preparation process for marksman hunters is much more complicated.
Whether it is bottles for hunting bows or crossbow shells for light crossbows and heavy crossbows, they all need to be prepared in advance.
Take Oshula, who is a light crossbow user, as an example. Not only does she have to prepare crossbow shells with different attributes and effects for the target monsters for this hunt.
We also need to consider the carrying capacity of finished crossbow shells, as well as the difficulty of storing some special crossbow shells.
For this reason, in addition to the finished crossbow bullets, she must also carry some of the raw materials needed to mix the crossbow bullets, such as needle fruits, exploding fruits, gunpowder grass, etc.
Very cumbersome.
Gordon went to find Pork Chop, hoping to inform him about the new mission.
What he didn't expect was that Pork Chop didn't go anywhere, but stayed alone in the room, tinkering with some barrels and gunpowder.
When he learned that he was leaving for the hunting ground tomorrow, Pig Chop seemed a little surprised, but he immediately got into the mood and checked the status of his armor, weapons, and hunting props.
Don’t think that hunting cats are just pets for hunters.
These smart and hard-working little guys have their own system for the research and use of weapons and even various hunting props. They are not inferior to human hunters at all, and in some aspects are even better than the latter.
For example, recently, Pork Chop has been obsessed with studying explosive bomb techniques.
In the past, Pork Chop didn't do much research on these things because at that time, its use of melee weapons, that is, the cat pickaxe, was not good enough, and its experience in cooperative combat with Gordon was also insufficient.
And now, it has grown into an excellent hunting cat and plans to take a step further.
In this regard, Gordon is naturally happy to see the results.
Both himself and his partner Zhu Ba are at a stage of rapid development in strength. Since no one wants to be left behind, they must work harder.
So, Gordon turned around and got into the training ground...
The whole day was spent in training and preparation.
Gordon walked out of the training ground, washed away the sweat and fatigue, and returned to his room.
Seeing Pork Chop lying on the floor, carefully installing a fuse on a small wooden barrel about the size of a coconut filled with black gunpowder powder, Gordon couldn't help but joked:
"Be careful, don't blow up the house. We can't afford to lose the money we have."
"I don't know how to do it, Meow! I have successfully mastered the art of Elu's explosive bomb, Meow!"
"Then I'll look forward to your performance."
