Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

  Chapter 59 Two people without tacit understanding

   Tracking monsters is fundamental to any hunter.

Peach-haired beasts with an average weight of more than 200 kilograms are not good at climbing trees, which undoubtedly greatly reduces the difficulty for hunters to track. Gordon and Ohsura quickly found the next footprint and confirmed that these peach-haired beasts The direction in which the beast left.

  The next thing is much simpler.

  Gordon continued to track the footprints left by the herd of peach-haired beasts while clearing the way ahead. As a shooter, Osura, who had a sharper perception, was in charge of guarding the surroundings to prevent other large monsters from entering.

  Pig Chop was sent out by Gordon to conduct an early reconnaissance on the rocky mountain where the Peach Hair Beast's lair is located.

   Today's pork chop is no longer the new tender hunting cat who can only follow behind the owner, provide some support, and take care of Gordon when he strips monster materials.

  Now it is enough to shoulder the heavy burden of a scout regardless of its experience, skill, or combat ability.

  Gordon hopes that it can find out in advance how many peach-haired beasts are active near the nest of peach-haired beasts, and whether the most important peach-haired beast king is around there.

  As long as this information can be obtained, the following hunting can be targeted and tactically arranged, rather than encounters based on luck.

  Not long after Pig Chop left the team, Gordon and Ohshura discovered the traces of the peach-haired beasts they were following.

  These pink-haired orangutans standing upright as tall as a person are lying leisurely beside a huge ant nest at this time, digging out the ant nest with their razor-sharp long claws, digging into it to dig termites to eat.

   "One male, three females, four in total, how?"

   Gordon, who was hiding sideways behind a big tree covered with vines, turned his head and looked at Oshula behind him, and put his hand on the hilt of the exploding sword behind him to show his attitude.

  Oshula grinned, and she held the Wrath of the Monster Bird slung behind her in front of her, and then made a gesture of "you do what you want".

  The two had the same idea. Although the four peach-haired beasts didn't offend them, on the one hand, they wanted to clear the way for the later hunting of the peach-haired beast king, and on the other hand, they also wanted to practice cooperation before the official hunting.

  I can only apologize.

  A bloodthirsty light appeared in Gordon's eyes, he twisted his neck, and with a crisp sound of bones, he charged towards the four peach-haired beasts.

   "Aww!"

   "Roar!"

  Gordon's hostile behavior unsurprisingly detonated the anger of the Peach Hair Beasts.

  These gorillas, who are irritable and often actively attack humans, beat their chests, let out a threatening roar, and then showed their proud claws.

  The male Peach-haired Beast in the lead rushed to the front. It stood upright, and its raised claws made its physique look even bigger.

   Facing the rushing hunter, it pressed forward, its sharp claws carried the force of its fat body, as if it was going to directly grab the hunter in front of it who dared to disturb them from enjoying their delicious meal.

  Gordon didn't evade or retreat, mastered the distance, and when he was about to enter the attack range of the Peach Hair Beast, he swung the explosive knife behind him vertically.

  Thanks to the precise distance control, the peach-haired beast's all-out attack failed, but the heavy and sharp explosive knife in Gordon's hand slashed firmly on the peach-haired beast's shoulder.

   In the splash of blood and flesh, a huge wound was left on the latter's **** belly.

  The most powerful of the peach-haired beasts was instantly seriously injured!

   "Oh ho, can't you tell, he is usually quite polite, but he is so cruel when hunting?"

  Pressing the center of gravity back, Oshura, who set up the ballista with both hands, smiled. The finger wrapped in the wrist armor has already caught the trigger, and the ballista in the barrel is ready to be fired at any time.

   Ahead.

  Gordon knew that he could easily kill the peach-haired beast as long as he added another blow.

  The knife just now was absolutely fatal. Even if this guy was left alone, it would die due to massive blood loss and internal organs in a few minutes.

  If he usually hunted alone, he would decisively make up for this blow, but now, he took the knife directly, accelerated his footsteps, let the male peach-haired beast fall to the ground mourning, and rushed to other targets ahead.

   "Bang, bang, bang."

  Three coherent and rhythmic explosions sounded, and Gordon knew that it was the Ursula behind who fired.

  Three crossbow bullets shot into the wound of the seriously injured male peach-haired beast in an instant, and the tragic beast howling stopped abruptly.

   "It's very smart, you didn't just stare at a brute foolishly." The corners of Ohshula's mouth curled up, she slightly tilted her neck, and put a female peach haired beast farther away from Gordon into the scope.

   The trigger is pulled.

   "Bang, bang, bang"

One after another, the crossbow bombs, accompanied by the flames and smoke and the shriek of tearing the air, were fired from the exaggerated crossbow head of the Wrath of the Monster Bird, and exploded on the peach-haired beast that was locked as the target. Blossom after flower of blood.

  Using the corner of his eye to judge the direction of Ohshula's shooting, he confirmed that the target shot by the latter was still far away from him, and the shooting circle did not overlap with him.

  Gordon unscrupulously swung the big sword in his hand towards the peach-haired beast in front of him.

  The peach-haired beast was obviously frightened by the instant death of its companion. It jumped and retreated, as if it had no intention of fighting Gordon head-on.

   This also caused Gordon's attack to be empty.

   But it doesn't matter, the pace changes, and the joints exert force layer by layer. He gradually guides the excess inertia generated by swinging the big sword into the air, turns it into his own power, and integrates it into his next attack.

   "Shuh!"

  The unavoidable peach-haired beast roared and launched a counterattack, but there was no need to compare the ten-centimeter-long sharp claws with the hunter's nearly two-meter-long steel giant blade.

  After several moves, the head of the peach-haired beast was beheaded, and the headless corpse fell powerlessly into a pool of blood.

   At the same time, not far away, the peach-haired beast that was locked by Oshura also lost its vitality with bullet holes all over its body.

  In less than half a minute, of the original four peach-haired beasts, only the pitiful last one remained.

   Right at this moment, Gordon and Ohshura stopped attacking at the same time with a very "tacit understanding".

  “.”

  “.”

Gordon couldn't help but turned around, spread his palms towards Ohshura, stretched his neck and made a gesture of "what's the matter with you?", but he didn't expect the latter to make the same expression to him at the same time .

  In fact, Gordon’s idea is very simple. The Peach Hair Beast’s size cannot completely “cover” itself, and rushing up by itself will inevitably block the shooting area, which will affect Ohsura’s shooting.

   And Ohshura's idea was equally simple. Since there was only the last monster left, and Gordon could easily deal with it by himself, then shooting by himself would undoubtedly increase the risk, and it was completely meaningless.

   Instantly realizing what the other was thinking, the two rolled their eyes at the same time.

   Forget it, let me do it myself.

  Gordon didn't hesitate anymore, he rushed forward, and Ohhura, who had the same thought, also decisively pulled the trigger.

  A series of crossbow bullets almost brushed past Gordon's ears, he had to stop immediately to avoid accidental injury, and Ohhura also stopped firing in a hurry.

  “.”

  “.”

  Damn it, I have no understanding with this guy! X2
