Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 195: Pork Chop Explosion Plan

  Chapter 195 Pork Chop Explosion Plan

  The time is now around three or four in the afternoon. It is too late to go hunting, and the physical strength is not allowed.

  But if you just collect materials nearby, it is still very safe.

   This oasis is not too big, and you can walk from one end to the other in a few minutes.

   There is a small lake in the oasis. The deepest part of the lake may be less than one meter, but fish can still be seen swimming in it.

  This may be the only water source nearby.

   Creatures in the desert are famous for their tenacity, not only animals, but also plants. As long as they get a little soil and water, they will grow stubbornly and savagely.

   Therefore, the plants that can be collected in the oasis are also beyond Gordon's expectations.

  Gunpowder grass, nitrifying mushrooms and other materials that are quite common in desert areas, and a considerable amount was quickly collected.

  The same goes for the spider web. The pork chop got into a low, cool stone crevice and collected a few pairs.

  Weaving this thing with ivy can create a strong and sticky net, which is a necessary material for making a trap.

  Unfortunately, no Thunder Bug was found. This small creature may not be suitable for such a dry environment.

   The paralysis trap seems to be a no-brainer.

   Pork Chop has sharp eyes, and was pleasantly surprised to find that among the fish swimming at the bottom of the small lake, there is a broken arowana.

   This kind of fish is very unpalatable, and there is not much meat from head to tail, but its sharp and thick scales have a wide range of uses.

  For example, if there is a set of armor named "Fish Scale Set", use it as the main material.

   But that's not its primary role.

  Cracked Arowana is often found in the blending list of various explosives. Adding it as an auxiliary material can greatly increase the power of gunpowder.

  —This is how Barrel Bomb G was made.

   So Gordon was dragged by the pork chop to go fishing.

  Since it has the opportunity, it wants to rub out this powerful explosive bomb no matter what.

  Cracked arowana is not difficult to catch. The lake is so deep and very clear. Within a few minutes, Gordon caught several of them, making the pork chops jumping happily.

   "I also found this meow!" The pork chop presented a bunch of bright red fruits like a treasure.

   is pepper.

  Gordon joked with a smile: "Are you going to cook the cracked dragon fish spicy soup?"

   "Nonsense meow!" Pig Chop said angrily: "Chili can be used to mix hot drinks meow, we only prepared cold drinks this time, no hot drinks meow!"

  Gordon was taken aback when he heard the words, and then realized the meaning of the pork chop.

   Drinking a hot drink in the desert may sound outrageous, but it's actually quite normal.

   At night after the sun goes down, the desert is extremely cold, and the temperature may even drop to freezing point. If you need to hunt at night for some reason, hot drinks are a necessary consumable.

   "It's true that I forgot to prepare this, and I will mix a few bottles later, just in case." Gordon praised the pork chop's little head.

  Holding those thumping cracked arowanas, Pork Chop began counting the ingredients.

   "With gunpowder grass and nitrating mushrooms, you can make a lot of gunpowder mews, and with the burst dragon fish, it's only a short distance from the big barrel bomb G!"

   "What's the difference?" Gordon, who also knew the reconciliation process of the barrel bomb G, asked it funny.

   "Lack of a big bucket meow." The pig chop drooped its ears.

  The vats used to make vat bombs are usually finished products purchased from merchants, so how could they be collected in the desert?

   "It doesn't matter meow!" Pig Chop suddenly cheered up again, "The former subordinates may be helpless, but after practicing with Master Teacher, the subordinates are no longer the same meow!"

  Looking around, Pig Chop pointed to a few palm trees by the lake and said, "We can use the palms and trunks of the palm trees to try meow!"

  Gordon thought about it, and what the pork chop said made sense.

  The role of the vat is actually to hold the gunpowder and compress the explosive power to a certain extent.

  There is no big barrel right now, maybe it is feasible to use a large number of brown stretchers to make a few explosive bags? Might might be a little bit interesting, but it's better than nothing.

   One person and one cat ran towards the palm tree.

"ah!"

  Gordon kicked something suddenly under his feet, almost tripped, staggered a few steps forward, and barely stabilized his body with his hands on the ground.

  An exotic gold coin that had been rubbed so gleaming fell out of his neckline.

  Gordon didn't think much about it, and stuffed the gold coin that had brought him countless times of good luck back into his armor, and looked back, trying to see what tripped him up.

"This is?"

  Gordon, who walked over, poked away the yellow sand with his toes, revealing a curved wooden strip with rivets.

  The pork chop also came over, "It looks like a broken wheel meow."

   "Dig it out and take a look!" Gordon raised some interest.

  It is not common to encounter similar man-made objects in the desert, but it is not new either. It should be left behind by a caravan passing by the oasis when it was resting here.

  With the excavation of Gordon and the pork chop, the man-made objects under the yellow sand revealed the whole picture.

  As Gordon guessed, this is an abandoned cart, the axle is completely broken, and it cannot be repaired in the desert and can only be discarded.

   There are also some old wooden boards, ropes and the like scattered around.

"Meow?!"

  Pork Chop jumped up suddenly, excitedly digging towards a place, and the raised yellow sand covered Gordon's face.

   It found several large cracked barrels!

  Gordon: "?"

   Can you really collect large barrels in the desert? (Really able, serious face)

   There are four wooden barrels in total, one of which is seriously damaged, only half of it remains, and the other three are relatively intact, except that the boards are cracked.

  The pork chop went up to smell it, and there was still a faint smell of wine in the wooden barrel, which may have been used to hold wine.

  Maybe it was because the axle was broken and the cart overturned, the wine barrels rolled to the ground, broke and cracked a few, the merchants took away the residual wine, and the broken wooden barrels had to be discarded along with the cart.

  Gordon took out the transshipment gold coin from Hayata with a delicate expression, looked it over a few times, then stuffed it back, and said to the pork chop: "Okay, now we even have a big bucket.

  We used these scrap wood boards, as well as car boards, and simply repaired them, and they were completely usable. "

   "Four large barrel bombs G paste its face meow! I will blow it up meow meow!"

  The gate of the East Doruma Hunter Gathering House was pushed open.

  The one who pushed the door and entered was a tall female hunter in a pure white armor suit.

  Behind her is a weapon called "Zan Po Dao".

   This is a metal-derived Taidao based on the "Iron Sword [Kagura]" and strengthened by adding a large amount of larkite and lightning bags. It has quite good thunder attribute special effects.

  The armor named "Strange Dragon Suit" has its own hood, which makes it difficult to see her appearance, except for a trace of brown hair floating from the edge of the hood.

   When she came to the counter, she was a little startled by the identical appearance of the triplet Kanban lady, but she quickly reacted and handed over her hunter notes.

   "Hello, I want to register at the East Doruma Assembly Hall. This is my hunter note."

  Hetty took the note and said softly: "Of course, please wait a moment."

  Hulley on the side didn't have any work to do, so she leaned over with a smile, "Wow, Miss Sister's eyes are so beautiful, emerald green, like young leaves in spring!"

   "Ah, thank you for the compliment." Facing Hurley's compliment, Miss Hunter was a little at a loss.

   "Sorry." The second sister Herta bowed her head apologetically.

  She took Hurley aside and began the daily discipline.

   At this time, Hetty, who had completed the information registration, also returned the other party's hunter note. She folded her hands in front of her and bowed slightly in greeting.

   "Miss Hayata, welcome to the East Doruma Hunter Gathering Hall."
