Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 380: hard escape

  Chapter 380 Difficult Escape

  The blinding effect of the flash bomb will not last long, hunters must take advantage of this opportunity to distance themselves.

   There was no need for anyone to remind, everyone was running towards the lush forest.

  With the stride and speed of a human being, it is impossible for most large monsters to run in an open area, not to mention the extremely fast dragon species such as Thunder Wolf Dragon.

   Entering the dense forest with complex terrain and many obstacles is the best route for them to escape.

   It was still Julius who ran at the front of the team to open the way. It wasn't that he had to pay attention to the formation at this time. It was just that the two knives were very convenient to clean up the vine branches along the way.

  In addition, this person is particularly experienced in escaping.

  Who let the guild let him scout some weird things from time to time

  Gordon was very fortunate that they brought a large number of forced drugs G. This expensive drug did not benefit a great swordsman like him in battle.

  But the effect of greatly improving endurance is very useful when running at full speed.

   Nadia, who was running in front of him, was running at full speed, while raising the light crossbow to the big tree deep in the forest, and to the distant mountain wall, firing some dye bombs, odor bombs, and even armor-piercing grenades.

  Dye bombs have a strong smell, while armor-piercing grenades emit loud roars, both of which can distract the Thunder Wolf Dragon in pursuit.

  Gordon also gradually understood the significance of Nadia's various preparations before departure.

The silencer that seems to be in the way can hide its position to the greatest extent. The dyed bombs are not only used to mark monsters, and the odor bombs are not just used to drive away monsters. Somewhat like, able to confuse the monster's judgment.

  The knowledge that seems to be useful but not very useful has increased.

  The roar of Thunder Wolf Dragon, the sound of heavy footsteps shaking the ground, and the noise of trees being smashed came from behind continuously.

  They still couldn't completely get rid of the pursuit.

  Julius, who led the way, did not appear to be flustered, and he has not hesitated in the choice of route until now.

   Regarding the planning of the retreat route, he had already made it when he was tracking down the Thunder Wolf Dragon.

   "Less than one kilometer left! Accelerate!" Julius shouted, which increased the speed of the entire team.

   This kind of rapid sprint will undoubtedly consume a lot of energy, but Gordon and the others have already understood Julius' plan.

  As the hunters ran at full speed, the sound of "squeaking" water came from the front.

  The hunters and Elu who rushed out of the woods ran towards the river with abundant water, which was formed by countless streams.

  Julius cut a handful of reeds by the river and threw it to his companions, "Dive underwater!"

   Then take the lead in wading into the depths of the river.

  The heavily armed hunters naturally don’t have to worry about not being able to dive, and the group disappeared on the river under the night in a blink of an eye.

   Tens of seconds later, the golden giant shredded the trees in front of it and came to the riverside.

  The smell of the target disappeared here.

  It lingered fruitlessly for a while, and let out a roar of anger.

   "Roar—!"

  The hunters who got rid of the hunting of the Thunder Wolf Dragons did not dare to leave the river too far, for fear of being caught by the Thunder Wolf Dragons who are good at hunting.

   They followed the river all the way down, and did not really relax until they reached a large lake the next afternoon.

   By this time everyone was exhausted.

  Find a relatively safe place to camp, light a bonfire, dry clothes, and eat some food to fill their hungry stomachs, they take turns to rest and recover their strength.

  The ladies went to bed first, and each of them hugged Elle, like hugging a pillow.

  Gordon and Julius stayed by the bonfire, discussing the previous events while keeping vigil.

   "Before I ran away and didn't have the strength to ask, tell me, senior brother, the information you detected."

  Gordon put his feet close to the bonfire. In order to avoid leaving footprints and smells this day and night, even if they didn't wade, they often walked by the ankle-deep river, and their feet were numb from the cold.

   "Besides the leader, there are three Thunder Wolf Dragons. Your judgment on this is accurate."

   Julius wiped his two swords carefully, and said: "The key is the leader. When I first saw it, I thought it was some kind of subspecies, but after observation, it didn't feel like it."

   "Not a subspecies?"

  Gordon was taken aback when he heard the words, "I thought there would be more 'Black Wolf Dragon' or 'Golden Wolf Dragon' in the ecology book in the future."

  Julius glanced at him, and said: "Sure enough, you also made this kind of visual misjudgment. In fact, the scale armor skin of the leader is the same as the ordinary Thunder Wolf Dragon, which is blue-blue, at most slightly darker.

  It's just that under the reflection of the night and the golden thunder, it will give people an illusion that is close to black. "

   "Ah, so."

   "Let me briefly summarize the key points I found. First of all, it is bigger, faster, and its forelimbs are stronger than ordinary Thunder wolf dragons. Its physical fitness should surpass ordinary Thunder wolf dragons.

  Furthermore, it is the golden thunder light, which has always been in a supercharged state when it appeared. It may be because it stores electricity very quickly, or it may be supercharged for it. "

  Gordon frowned, "Normal? That's really troublesome. When we hunted Thunder Wolf Dragon before, the first goal was to break its supercharged state through repeated attacks. If it's normal."

   "There is another important point, have you noticed the injury on its body?"

"certainly."

  Gordon nodded and said: "If I hadn't noticed an obvious wound on its left arm, I wouldn't have chosen to take the risk of going back and cutting it with the sword.

  Not to mention the leader, the carapace of an ordinary Leilanglong can't be cut open with one or two swords. "

   "It's not just the left arm, it's full of injuries, but the left arm is the most conspicuous."

  Julius added: "To be able to injure a monster of this level like that, and to have the kind of wound that was twisted by a reamer, and then consider the reason why the Thunder wolf dragon group left Lingfeng."

   "Lanlong, right." Gordon answered.

   It is not surprising that Julius knew about this series of things related to Lanlong, but rather, it is strange that he did not know.

The reason why the master sent Julius to Jieyun Village is probably to a certain extent because he was worried that Gordon's head would rush to the spiritual peak, just to fulfill the promise of "I will challenge you" a few years ago .

  Of course, Gordon thinks his brain is not that hot.

"Um."

  Julius paused, "Those scars are very, very deep, and have undoubtedly caused irreversible damage to the body of the leader Thunder Wolf Dragon.

   It's like the scar on the left shoulder. Although it has healed long ago, it is impossible for the missing muscles and carapace to grow back. "

   "You mean, the Thunder Wolf Dragon that leads the group is a 'disabled person'?" Gordon asked half-jokingly.

   "Disability may not count, but it should be fine to say that it is weakened by the severe trauma suffered by Zeng Jin."

   "Tsk, even if it has been weakened, can it still firmly suppress the entire Leilanglong group? I really don't know how strong it was originally."

  Julius was silent for a while after hearing the words, "Gordon, have you heard of the 'two names'?"

   (There is another chapter tonight)

   In the previous chapters, I saw quite a few readers discussing whether the two names are one or the other.

   There has always been controversy among those discussing the setting, because the "two famous monsters" in the game feel that they are divided into two categories.

   Special experience leads to alienation of special appearance and ability - Black Flame King, Purple Poison Princess, etc.

   On this basis, it specifically refers to a certain individual, such as Tianyan, Jimo, and Jin Leigong (the physical characteristics are too obvious, such as Tianyan, you can’t have a batch of Tianyan blind...)

   Still the same sentence, there are many controversial or ambiguous places in the setting itself, as long as everyone has a basic concept~

   After all, in a "realistic" world, many things cannot be perfectly defined by one word
