Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Gordon poked his head into the hole, and when he found the general sickle crab in the depths of the cave lying down unsteadily, ready to sleep and recuperate, he immediately retracted his head.

"It's about to fall asleep, wait a few minutes before going in." Gordon lowered his voice and said to Anshir and the others.

Anshir nodded, all hunters knew how attractive Sleep Slash was to a great swordsman, it had almost become something of faith.

After a while, Gordon sneaked into the cave lightly. Looking at the back of the former who bent over to leave, Anshir felt that this guy was like a scratching bird preparing to steal eggs, no matter how wretched he looked.

The general scythe crab was already fast asleep, but Gordon still didn't dare to stride forward, for fear of making any noise that would wake it up. He insisted on walking for two or three minutes within a short distance of less than a hundred meters.

When he came to the sleeping General Sickle, Gordon felt that his whole body was on fire.

The long-lost sleep cut!

After turning around and picking for a while, Gordon finally decided not to follow what Anshir said, aiming at the legs of the general scythe crab, but chose a scythe claw.

It was impossible to directly chop the sickle claw, which was harder than steel, so Gordon aimed at the joint at the base of the sickle claw.

There is also a thick carapace covering here, but in the previous battle, the joint carapace was damaged. If the power is enough, the claw-shaped blade of the Explosive Knife Kai should be able to break through.

Gordon pulled out the big sword, took a deep breath, pressed the air into his stomach, and began to accumulate strength.

The powerful three-stage charged slash precisely landed on the joint crack at the root of the general's sickle crab's claw, and the sharp steel blade tore through the carapace and embedded it deeply.

The general, who was hit hard in his sleep, hissed and moved his body to get up, but because of the broken foot, he lost his balance and fell to the ground again.

Gordon changed his posture and began to accumulate strength for a further strong power cut.

I don't know if it's because the weapon has been replaced with a heavier Explosive Knife Gai, but this time it seems to be quite handy this time, which was a bit difficult to control.

After three stages of charging, the steel blade with a howl of tearing the air once again landed on the joint wound that had been split by more than half.

"Crack, click."

With a crisp cracking sound, one side of the general's sickle crab was cut off directly.

"Chirp!!!"

Looking at the general scythe crab twitching violently, Gordon suddenly felt that the four-star monster was not so scary.

In his eyes, the male fire dragon, which was almost impossible to defeat with manpower, seemed to be of this "very dangerous, but you can try" level?

"Bang, bang."

With two crisp sounds, two crossbow shells hit the rocky ground not far from his feet, splashing some tiny sparks.

Gordon knew that this was the signal from Anshir that "the trap is ready to be completed".

The severely injured General's Sickle Crab trembled slightly. It slowly got up, raised its remaining sharp claws, and let out a silent roar at Gordon.

Although it is already very weak, even though one of its proud sickle claws has been cut off, it will never give up resistance and allow itself to be slaughtered.

Gordon suddenly felt a little despicable.

But looking at the sharp scythe claw on the ground that was longer than his whole body, he immediately put this ridiculous thought behind him.

Only fools talk about martial arts with monsters.

Laughing at himself, Gordon put away his big sword, turned around and ran. The weak General Scythe could no longer launch the dragon chariot like before. It was safe to run in a straight line. He didn't even dare to run too fast. lest the latter fail to keep up.

In the dark underground cave, the faint electric light from the paralysis trap was also very conspicuous. Gordon adjusted his direction slightly, leading the general sickle crab to run there.

Pork Chop may be worried that Gordon's eyesight is not good enough, and he is still bouncing around the trap, afraid that he will not be able to see the trap clearly.

Looking back, Gordon, who had confirmed the position and direction of the general scythe crab for the last time, and confirmed that it was bound to step into the trap, suddenly accelerated his pace.

Passing by the trap like the wind, he picked up the pork chop that was still bouncing, accelerated his pace again, and ran at full speed.

"Squeak!!" Behind him came the sharp hiss of the general scythe crab that stepped into the trap and was paralyzed by the electric current.

At the same time, the sound of roaring heavy ballistas came one after another from the direction of the cave exit - Anshir fired.

Three consecutive giant crossbow shells as thick as a forearm soared into the sky, and were precisely nailed to the root of a huge stalactite on the top of the cave.

Gordon really wanted to turn around and appreciate it, but for the sake of his own life and that of the pork chop, he could only keep running. After just a few seconds, he came to Anshir, who was waiting at the entrance of the passage and waving at the two of them vigorously. .

The two and the cat raised their heads at the same time, looking at the stalactites on the top of the cave.

"Boom, boom, boom!" The violent roar of three armor-piercing grenades detonated at the same time radiated around, and was reflected back by the rock wall, forming bursts of echoes.

A large piece of the giant stalactite's root was blasted, and countless cracks expanded from small to large, and finally broke completely.

The stalactite that lost its support accelerated its fall under the action of gravity, like a giant sword falling from the sky, piercing through the general scythe crab that had just escaped from the control of the paralysis trap below it.

The ear-piercing chirping characteristic of crustacean monsters stopped abruptly, leaving only the sound of rocks cracking and rolling, echoing endlessly.

Anshir, who returned to Naguli Village, was scolded by the village chief of the Tulong tribe.

Taking advantage of the exploration mission, sneaking away to hunt monsters whose danger level was higher than their own hunter level seemed to hit the old man's pain point, and the saliva spattered Anshir and the others all over their faces.

Gordon couldn't have imagined that this passionate and proud old village chief could be so scary when he got angry.

The bald brown forehead was flushed with blood, coupled with the pair of constantly shaking, exaggerated crescent mustaches, people can't help but think of the big wild boar king in a state of rage.

Gordon was very worried that the old man would give them a headbutt when he got angry. Looking at Anshir's small body, he probably couldn't bear it.

Although An Xier's personality is arrogant, he is not the kind of idiot who doesn't know good from bad.

He knew that the village head of the Tulong tribe was worried about his safety, so even though his face was covered with saliva and it was disgusting, he still patiently accepted the old man's reprimand and education humbly.

The old man scolded a lot, relieved his anger, and was dragged away by Isana.

Seeing Anshir lying beside the washbasin, desperately washing his face, Gordon couldn't help laughing, "How about it, you've also hunted the general scythe crab, have you felt a breakthrough?

Or do you want to come here a few more times and get a few more slobbers from the old man? "

Anshir's movements paused.

He folded the towels he used to wipe his face and hung them on the shelf, his expression seemed a little delicate.

Knowing what the other party was struggling with, Gordon leaned against the wall, folded his arms and said, "I'm not going to make friends, let's form a team, you should know better than me what restricts your growth.

The General Sickle Crab is very powerful, neither you nor I can hunt it alone right now, but as long as we join forces, it will be worthless.

The end of the hunting road is so far away that you can't see the edge, and the monsters you encounter in the future will only become stronger and stronger. Compared with adventuring alone, it's good to have a trustworthy companion, isn't it? "

Hearing Gordon's invitation, Anshir also smiled.

"I was still thinking about how to raise it to save face, but it turned out that you said it first."

As he spoke, Anshir stretched out his hand, "I have no reason to refuse, please advise me in the future."
