Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

  Chapter 84 Serious injuries

  The burn on the back was really bad.

  It is completely made of metal ore, and the refined ore suit with strong thermal conductivity will not only have no defense against high temperature and flames, but may even increase fire damage.

  Principles refer to Teppanyaki

   This is why Gordon has been injured more than once by the aftermath of such attacks, the high-temperature breath of the peach-haired beast king, and the hot sand breath of the big monster bird.

  If you change to a set of high "fire-resistant" armor, such as a red velociraptor suit made of red velociraptor skin that lives in high-temperature areas, as long as you don't get hit directly by the breath, a little high-temperature aftermath and range damage can be almost completely ignored.

   Instead of being hit hard like now.

  At first, Gordon thought that he would be fine after drinking some recovery medicine, just like the Peach Hair Beastmaster, but he didn't expect that the wound caused by the hot sand breath of the big monster bird was very troublesome.

  The recovery medicine can indeed accelerate skin regeneration, but the wound has not been treated, and the new tender skin and the clothes on the back are stuck together, and the wound will be torn again with a little movement.

  In order to avoid further aggravation of the injury and infection, he had no choice but to return to the camp with the pork chop.

  In the camp, Gordon carefully removed his armor with the help of the pork chop, revealing the scorched shirt on his back and the terrible red and black wounds.

   "It's serious, meow." Piggy said worriedly, "Do you need to cancel the mission first, meow?"

"Hiss~, no need." Gordon gasped and lay down on the bed in the camp, he said: "The burn wound looks terrible, but it should not hurt the muscles, pork chop, take a knife to help me clean the wound, Otherwise, the wound will not grow well."

   "Ok meow."

  Having been Gordon's hunting cat partner for nearly two years, now Pork Chop has mastered the skills of dressing various wounds, including such burns.

   Even so, it took more than an hour for the pork chop to use a sterilized knife to shave off the dead skin burned on Gordon's back and a large number of foreign objects that adhered to the new tender skin.

   These foreign objects are mainly shirt fibers and cooled sand. If these foreign objects are not cleaned up, it will be useless for Gordon to drink more recovery medicine.

After cleaning the wound with great difficulty, the sweat oozing from Gordon's forehead had completely soaked the pillow. After taking a few breaths and pouring two bottles of recovery medicine, he kept lying on his stomach and closed his eyes, forcing himself to enter the wound. sleep.

   Adequate rest can maximize the effect of recovery medicine.

   It has to be said that the invention of recovery medicine and various alchemy potions has greatly improved the survival rate of hunters. Otherwise, such a large area of ​​skin burns would easily lead to infection and lead to more serious consequences.

   Seeing that Gordon's breathing had stabilized and the wound did not seep out a lot of fluid, Pig Chop heaved a sigh of relief, curled up on the cushion at the foot of the bed and lay down.

  The sky is getting dark, let's take a good rest today.

   Gordon woke up from hunger.

  From noon yesterday until now, he has taken nothing but a few bottles of recovery medicine.

   Gordon, who was still lying on his stomach, did not get up in a hurry, but tried to move his arms carefully. There was no pain in his back, which made him heave a sigh of relief.

   As soon as he stretched his arms, he got up from the bed, and after doing a few more chest expansion exercises, he confirmed that the wound on his back had completely healed.

  This medical method of using medicine to speed up wound recovery will inevitably leave scars.

   Without looking at Gordon, he knew that there must be a large area of ​​ugly burn marks on his back, but so what?

  Don’t say that he didn’t care about these things at all, even if he did, after being hit by the fireball from the male fire dragon, his back was already in a mess, and now it’s just scars on scars.

   Without waking up the still snoring pork chop, Gordon walked lightly outside the tent.

  The sky was still dark, but according to the position of the disappearing stars and the moon, Gordon knew that in no more than an hour, the sky would turn pale.

   Stretched his waist towards the sky, Gordon said hesitantly: "Let's make a hearty breakfast first."

   After more than half an hour, Pig Chop, who also woke up from hunger, came out of the tent rubbing his eyes.

   "Morning pork chop!"

   "Morning meow~, is Gordon's wound okay?"

   "It's okay, it's okay." Gordon smiled and showed Pig Chop his back, and suddenly noticed that he was not wearing a shirt.

"No wonder it's a bit cold." Gordon muttered, and walked into the tent to get his shirt for washing, while not forgetting to say to the pork chop: "Breakfast is ready, eat more, I have to go to the other side today Big Bird is back!"

   "Okay meow!" Pig Chop bounced towards the iron pot that was gurgling on the bonfire.

  The so-called sumptuous breakfast is naturally not the one in the tavern, with big fish and meat, cheese, fruits and vegetables, but a big pot of steaming mush.

  Gordon didn’t take the time to hunt for raw meat this time, so there’s no need to think about the delicious barbecue. The taste and brick-like ingredients are the only “ingredients”.

   After crushing several pieces of food materials, put them in a pot and add water to cook.

  The dry and hard wheat flour will expand after absorbing water, and the dry, hard and salty jerky mixed with it will become slightly softer, and eventually turn into a porridge-like jerky wheat paste.

   It is of course impossible to say how delicious this big pot of hot oatmeal is, but it is better than stuffing dry and hard food directly into your mouth, at least you won’t grit your teeth and scratch your throat.

  As the old people like to say-eating is adding coal to the stove. When people are full, they will be energetic.

   Gordon and Pork Chop, who were hiccupped by the big pot of wheat paste, felt full of energy at this moment.

   "Pig Chop, let's discuss tactics!"

   No matter how much information I got, I didn't get to know it after actually facing a big monster bird in the hunting ground.

   In order to distract attention while cleaning the wound yesterday, Gordon considered a lot, and now it is time to make a tactical plan.

   "Yesterday, I was fighting the big monster bird head-on, and found that the guy's head is actually not a weak point. The huge bird's beak is very hard, and it is not easy for me to break through the defense with giant scissors.

   Moreover, the giant beak is also the most powerful weapon of the monster bird. The power of pecking and breathing is amazing, and it is very risky to face it head-on. Therefore, in subsequent battles, I will try to lock its wings or abdomen.

  So pig chop, I need you to attract the attention of the big monster bird. You don’t need to actually confront it, just jump up and down in front of it to provoke it, pay attention to protect yourself, I will wait for the opportunity to launch an offensive from the side. "

   "Okay meow!"

   "The other thing is that guy's hearing problem. How many bomb barrels do you have?"

   "There are two more cats under the next check!"

"I still have three sonic bombs here, and I'll give them to you together. You can judge when you use them, but pay attention, the big monster bird will close its ear fans when it is angry. At this time, the noise is invalid. It must be opened when its ear fans are unfolded." use it again.”

   "Understood meow!" Piggy took the sonic bomb and nodded seriously.

"Use the sonic bomb first. The bomb barrel may blow up the ear fans of the big monster bird. After the ear fans are destroyed, the noise effect will also be weakened. This is what Mr. Miles told me. There is no doubt about its reliability. .”

   "Use the sonic bomb first, meow, remember me next time."
