Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

  Chapter 81 The target is the big monster bird!

  Amos' gift Gordon also likes it very much. It is a pair of portable binoculars.

   "Observation, thinking, and hunting rely not only on muscles, but also on the brain, don't forget." Amos watched Gordon hang the small telescope around his neck and said with a smile.

   "I remember, thank you Senior Amos, I like it very much!"

  Pig Chop sent a finger-sized bone flute with a shape very characteristic of Ai Lu. When it is blown, it will make a clear and clear song just like a tit.

   He rubbed the little head of the pork chop vigorously, and Gordon smiled happily, "You are very skillful! The pork chop!"

  Hayatta’s gift seemed inconspicuous. It was a thin rope woven by herself, with thin metal wires mixed into it. It was beautiful and strong, and it was just right for hanging exotic ancient coins.

  This gift made Ursula's eyes turn red with envy. In her eyes, this is simply the strongest transport accessory!

   "It's beautiful! Thanks La Hariyata!"

Gordon immediately changed the animal tendon rope that was used to hang the ancient foreign coins, and then held the re-worn ancient coins in front of Hayata, looked at the latter expectantly, and said: "Help me to put another buff, Hariyata!"

   "Buff?" Hayata's face was full of question marks.

   "It's similar to the buff state of the hunting horn, the kind that adds luck!"

   "Why, how?" Hayata also understood that Gordon was engaging in superstitious activities.

   "Sing a hymn? Do a praying dance?" Ursula, who believed in these the most, couldn't help leaning over and suggested, "Or something like blowing breath?"

  The first two proposals were too difficult, and only the last proposal should be simpler. Hayata approached Gordon with a blushing face, lifted her hair by her ear, and gently blew on the ancient coin.

  His palms were itchy, but Gordon didn't notice this charm, he just smirked and hung the ancient "lucky +1" coin back on his chest, and patted it with satisfaction.

  Osula, whose teeth were sour, almost couldn't help but grabbed it.

  After a long meal, the birthday party finally entered the final stage, eating cake.

  The huge cake that looks delicious is said to be the result of the joint efforts of the two kanban girls, Tiki and Marge.

——The tender cake base, smooth cream, and exquisite and beautiful decorations are all thanks to the "reliable senior" Madge, and the "lazy vase" Tiji is responsible for writing a dog-like "Wish you all the best" on the top of the cake. Happy Birthday Gordon!".

  Candles, make a wish, cut the cake.

  With a burst of untidy, but sincere and enthusiastic "Happy Birthday!"

  Gordon is eighteen years old.

   Xiuletsen Hill, southeast hunting ground, hunter camp.

  Gordon checked the carrying condition of the props and the sharpness of the "giant shears" for the last time, and carefully fastened the belt of the "refined ore suit".

  After confirming that the preparations are complete, he beckoned to the pork chop, "Let's go, pork chop, this time it's for real!"

"Meow!"

   It has been nearly a year since we came to Minagarde.

  During this year, Gordon spent at least 70% to 80% of his time either in the hunting grounds or on the way to and from the hunting grounds. He finally accumulated enough two-star missions to complete.

He has also teamed up with Oshura, Ted, and several other familiar hunters many times. Three-star monsters such as Peach Hair Beast King, Daming Shield Crab, Sleeping Bird, Water Beast, and Beaver Beast have also joined forces. Successfully hunted quite a few.

  In the eyes of those familiar with Gordon, the only difference between him and a real three-star hunter is the missing half star on the cover of the hunter's notebook.

   And this time, he finally applied for the promotion task he had dreamed of.

  —

  Hunting mission (urgent mission): Orange Shadow (★★★)

  Mission content: Hunt the big monster bird

  Remuneration: 8000z

  Mission Location: Xiuletsen Hill

   Monsters that may appear: Blue Velociraptor, Big Wild Boar, Odd Face Race

  Limited time: 7 days

Observer of the Wang Li Paleontological Scholars Team: A restless big strange bird left its original territory and came to the southeast foot of Xiuleitesen Hill. Under its hunting range, passing pedestrians, caravans, and even villages would all being threatened.

   Hunt it down before it does more damage.

  —

   Considering the difficulty of hunting, it was actually a very unwise decision for Gordon to accept this task as a promotion task to become a three-star hunter.

  In terms of combat power alone, the big monster bird is at the same level as large monsters like the daimyo shield crab, but the former's excellent flying ability makes this bird-dragon monster known as the "teacher" a few steps more difficult.

  According to Myers, the easiest weapon to deal with the monster bird is actually a light crossbow.

  As long as you carry as many armor-piercing grenades as possible and shoot at the head, you can easily injure it. If the big monster bird is just in the take-off state, you can even shoot it down directly, creating a huge loophole.

   In comparison, a swordsman like Gordon is at a disadvantage.

The long and powerful legs make it difficult for the swordsman's weapons to reach the soft chest and abdomen of the monster bird. The wings that are often flapped can not only create wind pressure that makes the hunters stand unsteadily, but also can Easily knocks back any approaching hunters.

  Once they fly, the swordsmen who have no means of long-range attack can only stare blankly, it can be said that they are passive everywhere.

   There are many reasons to avoid this task.

  Gordon can wait a few more days, choose a three-star monster with hunting experience as a target, such as the peach-haired beast king, and then easily complete the promotion.

  However, when he saw the words "big monster bird" marked in the hunting target column, he still resolutely accepted the urgent mission receipt.

the reason is simple.

  Promoting to be a three-star hunter was never his goal, not even a short-term goal.

   What he wants is to become stronger.

  So what if it can fly, so what if its trickiness ranks among the top among three-star monsters, isn't it just a "little flying dragon"?

  Compared to last year when I first came to Minagarde, I have become much stronger. If I see "Mr. Yangkuku" is timid and afraid of failing in the promotion task, then what is the hunting of the "King of the Sky"?

   "Our giant scissors are already hungry and thirsty!"

  The sun is about to rise to the mid-heaven, and the midday sun in late spring has already gained some power.

  By the river beach, Gordon scooped up the river water and drank a couple of sips, then washed his face casually. He immediately felt a lot cooler. He filled the water bag and hung it back around his waist. He stood up and looked around carefully.

The rainfall in recent weeks has been exaggerated, the water in the river is abundant, and the soil on the beach is very thin and soft. A large number of small river crabs, snails and earthworms left soil bags all over the river beach, and the growth of aquatic plants and moss is not good. Pretty good.

   These are very valuable information.

  Fish, shrimp and crabs, river snails and earthworms are the favorite food of the monster bird. When the target activity area cannot be determined, it is a good choice to find clues along the foraging places and water sources that the monster bird likes.

   "Pork chop, let's look for it carefully!"

  The hunter and the cat searched along the river beach for a long time, but unfortunately they found nothing. Perhaps because of the heavy rain last night, there were no noteworthy footprints left on the river beach.

   A breeze is blowing.

  The pork chop, which was lying on the ground looking carefully, suddenly stood up. It sniffed and carefully identified the faint smell that was blowing in the wind.

   "What did you find?"

   "It's the smell of rotting corpses meow!"

   "Go, let's go and see!"
