Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

The group planned to stay at the research base for two more days.

Hayata Gail and the others need to rest and take some time to adapt to the breathing masks and goggles.

Anhil was still mixing crossbow ammunition, and Gale was also busy with this, so he called him to cooperate.

Although the two of them did not deal with each other, preparing ammunition was an extremely critical thing for any shooter, and Ancier naturally did not refuse.

With the division of labor and cooperation between the two, the coordination efficiency has improved a lot.

Considering that the main purpose of going to Miasma Valley this time is not hunting, but investigation, Ancier planned to bring the Industry Heavy Crossbow [Famine], as well as a large number of diffusion bombs and armor-piercing grenades.

Seeing this, Gordon Hayata's face turned dark.

But Anhil explained that these were used to suppress and break him with strong firepower when encountering unexpected situations, and the swordsmen stopped thinking about pressing him down and beating him up.

Gale was inspired by him, and the ammunition he prepared was mainly shotgun.

With this kind of ammunition configuration, when the two of them were firing at full strength, the swordsmen would not dare to get close to the monster no matter what.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't have to take the first step.

In terms of equipment, Gordon and Hayata had nothing to prepare.

The Great Sword of the Inscription and the Scythe of the Inscription are purely physical damage weapons. They may not be very specific, but they are absolutely unmistakable choices.

It is worth mentioning that the materials of the Ferocious Claw Dragon have been identified by scholars and have high resistance to dragon-type energy. They are also tough in texture and can be used to make very good armors.

An old Draconian scholar with rich knowledge of alchemy also suggested that after these materials are made into finished equipment, they are likely to have a protective effect similar to that of "Takumi".

The reason why the claws of the Mistyclaw and the Fierceclaw can always maintain an extremely astonishing sharpness may be because of the existence of this mysterious protection. (The Essence of the Misty Claw)

Similar protection has no meaning to the shooter. After a brief discussion, Gale gave Hayata the materials needed to make the armor, while she herself took the material of the unlucky Claws. material.

According to the leader of the third phase of the group, the female armor of the Dragon Claw was made by a hunter, and it has a very sexy look. She plans to make a set of "costumes" that look good when she returns to the base.

Just teasing Ancil~.

At the same time, the scholar also told them that when going to the Valley of Miasma, it would be best to collect some high-quality thick scales of the Thieving Dragon and the beheaded feathers of the giant beetle unique to the Valley of Miasma.

You will need these to make the armor of the Claw Claw, and you will probably need it when making the Claw Claw as armor. It is always better to get more high-quality materials and have them ready. It is better than not having any when you need them and having to make a special trip back. .

Hayata kept it in mind, and this trip to the Miasma Valley had one more goal.

Depart from the research base located on the southwestern edge of the Coral Platform.

Pig Chop followed the strange-faced tribe that came to the door. It took him nearly a week to finally arrive near the camp where the king of the strange-faced tribe was.

You must know that in the complex terrain of the Coral Platform, Ellu and the Qimian Tribe can travel much faster than humans. In the past few days, they have almost directly traversed the entire Coral Platform, all the way to the northern part of the platform.

Standing on a high ridge, looking north.

As far as the eye can see, there are only mountains and mountains that have been squeezed and bulged after the earth was broken.

That is the northern region of the New World that almost no humans have ever reached, except for a few legendary investigators (?) such as the Grand Master.

At this time, Pork Chop can already clearly feel the changes in the energy environment.

The further north you go, the higher the energy intensity in the air.

From the map, if you continue hundreds of kilometers north, you can enter the core area of ​​​​the northern part of the New World (which is later the place where the Dragon Crystal is located).

It is no longer suitable for ordinary creatures to survive. Only the most powerful monsters in the entire New World are qualified to live here.

The ultimate target that Silverside is chasing during this trip, the Nergigante, is very likely to be active in that area.

"Gaba!" The Qimian Clan waved to Pig Chop, gesturing for the latter to follow.

They finally stopped heading north, and instead circled around the narrow and rugged mountain roads, finally arriving at a nearly vertical flat cliff.

This is the junction area between the northern part of the mainland and the continental coral platform.

The geological structure is no longer dominated by completely calcified ancient coral reefs, but many traces of terrestrial coral reproduction can still be seen around.

The Qimian tribe grabbed a green spherical object from the cliff and handed it to Pig Chop.

The sphere is soft and porous, and a large amount of water is accumulated in it. Ajian has introduced it before, so Pork Chop knows that this thing is called "water ball moss".

It is a special kind of moss formed from the symbiosis of mycelium and algae. It can be used as an emergency water source. It can also be loaded on a projector and launched. It has a good enraging effect on monsters that hate water.

Um.

Although he had a water bladder on his body, Pig Chop did not intend to live up to the kindness of the Qimian Clan. He squeezed the water polo moss with his paws and sucked up the water in it.

At the same time, the strange-faced tribe picked up another piece of water polo moss and wiped the dust off the mask and body.

One cat and one strange-faced tribe looked at each other in silence.

The Qimian clan reluctantly picked another piece of water polo moss and gave it to the pig, and also made a "wiping face" motion.

This is for you to clean your hair, not for you to drink!

Pork Chop awkwardly took care of himself. He had been traveling for several days in a row, and his body was indeed dirty and messy.

After finishing everything, the Qimian clan took the pork chop and drilled through a low stone cave that even Elu couldn't pass through standing up, and entered the interior of the mountain.

This is the residence of the Qimian tribe living nearby.

The cave is very spacious, with limited lighting coming from cracks at the top of the cave and several fires. The overall environment is not bright, but it has no impact on Elu, who has low-light vision.

"Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" The Qimian tribe shouted.

Suddenly, many strange-faced tribesmen gathered around.

The Strange Face Tribe is very exclusive. Even if they are led by the same tribe, it is difficult for them to be friendly when they first meet. This has been experienced before in the Great Ant Mound Wasteland.

However, the situation this time was a little different. It may be due to the necklace of animal teeth hanging on the pig's chest. This group of strange-faced tribe behaved quite enthusiastically.

Two of them even came over, grabbed the pig's paws, and invited it to dance together.

Just when Zhupa was at a loss, there was another shout. The enthusiastic Qimian clan members lowered their heads and dispersed to both sides, as if they had received some kind of order.

An extraordinarily tall Qimian Clan with a prominent presence walked through the Qimian Clan and walked slowly towards it.

No need to look at anything else, just the height of over 160 centimeters (including the mask) proves the identity of this strange-faced tribe.

——King of the Strange Face Clan.

Pork Chop's tail couldn't help but straighten.

It is true that it once defeated a strange-faced king in the Old World, but their legendary experiences and the forces under their control were not on the same level.

That was just the leader of the Xiuretsenqiu Strange-Faced Clan, and the man in front of him was the king respected by all the Strange-Faced Clan in the New World.

There seems to be no horizontal comparison.

"Hello, meow."

In order to express his respect, Pig Pa bowed his head first, "I am Pig Pa, Meow, a member of the New World Investigation Team."

Zhupa didn't think that the other party could understand the common language of the old continent, so he simply introduced himself out of habit as a courtesy.

Unexpectedly, the other party actually responded.

The King of the Strange Face Tribe patted his round belly and said in a low voice:

"Welcome to the other side of the sea, my friend."
