Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 467: battle restart

  Chapter 467 Battle Restart

  The armor-piercing grenade fell on the side of the Hammer Dragon, and after a few seconds of delay, a burst of flames burst out.

"Roar-!"

  The Hammer Dragon turned around and roared loudly in the direction of the attack.

  Due to the thick carapace on the torso, this armor-piercing grenade didn't really hurt it, but it did blow it quite painfully.

   Most importantly, no creature will be in a good mood if eating is interrupted.

  However, just as it opened its huge mouth wide and let out a deterrent roar, a huge arrow wrapped in dazzling propelling flames rushed towards it, and precisely drilled into its mouth.

  The roar of the Hammer Dragon stopped abruptly. It convulsively raised its upper body, and the arrow almost missed its throat.

"Wow!"

  Huo Ya, who is also a bow hunter, couldn't help but marvel.

  Among the few people, she is the only one who understands how difficult it is to maximize the power of Dragon Arrow while also ensuring shooting accuracy, perfect timing, and the best angle of entry.

   "Shui Yun, go up."

  Hilda, who slid back a few meters under the huge recoil, stabilized her body, and gave instructions in a low voice.

  Shui Yun immediately set up her large shield and spear, and charged towards the roaring Hammer Dragon.

  Huoya and Anshir immediately followed up.

   There are avant-garde guards to stop the target monster, and under the premise of a fixed battle, the shooter can enter the middle distance or even a closer position, so as to improve the power and accuracy of crossbow arrow shooting.

  Hilda detoured and rushed to the back of the blast hammer dragon.

  Being good at stealth reconnaissance, she goes deep into the hunting grounds alone most of the time. It has been a long time since she participated in this kind of siege where she confronted monsters head-on.

   "I still have some nostalgia."

  Hilda murmured to herself, when she walked quickly past the Blasthammer Dragon, she suddenly turned and slid, using the inertia of her turn to draw the bowstring in one breath, several arrows shot out.

   After completing the shooting, she paused a little. While turning the big bow with her left hand, she wiped the quiver behind her waist with her right hand, and put five more arrows on the bowstring.

  With her sudden force, the bowstring made a "boom" buzz.

   Just Cum!

  In less than two seconds, she opened her bow twice, and shot nearly ten arrows into the thigh of Blasthammer Dragon.

  The densely packed arrows looked like archery targets.

  The Hammer Dragon howled in pain, subconsciously swung its giant tail, and slammed at Hilda beside it.

  Hilda slid low again, dodging the blow lightly.

  In the eyes under the black veil, a red light of resentment flashed, but she didn't immediately fight back, but continued to move forward, and circled behind the blast hammer dragon.

   Turning its head, the Hammer Dragon, which was about to bite the enemy beside him, was stunned for a moment. It felt as if something was running past, but it didn't see it clearly.

  Shui Yun in the front immediately stabbed the spear in her hand continuously, forcibly attracting the attention of the hammer dragon.

  Anhill found a good angle, squatted down, set up the heavy crossbow, and entered the squatting shooting mode. Countless water-cooled bullets bombarded the blaster dragon at an extremely fast speed, continuously weakening its physical strength.

   This is the most powerful part of the heavy crossbow. As long as the heavy crossbow is provided with a relatively stable attack environment, their firepower projection ability is unmatched.

  Anshir, who was shooting at the target with all his strength, suddenly caught a glimpse of Huo Yagao raising his hunting bow from the scope.

   "Curve shot?!"

  Anshir was stunned for a moment. He knew that this was a trick often used by archers, but it was mostly when hunting alone.

   The top-down attack of Curved Shot can sometimes produce surprising effects, but it is difficult to precisely control the landing point.

   When hunting with multiple people, especially when there are swordsmen around monsters, archers generally do not use curved shots, and it is very easy to accidentally injure teammates.

   Before he could give a sound reminder, Huoya let go of the bowstring, and the specially made arrow dragged a bulging cloth pocket and shot into the air.

  The cloth pocket spread out in the air, and the objects wrapped in it fell to the head of the explosive hammer dragon, covering the water cloud that was restraining the explosive hammer dragon from the front.

  Anshir's shooting paused for a moment, and he was about to replace the recovery bullet.

  The cloth pockets used by hunters for straight shooting are generally filled with heavy and sharp caltrops or barbed iron balls.

   Even if you want to take a risky curved shot, there is no need to turn to the position of the swordsman's teammates.

   Is your sister a lucky draw?

   But what happened next made Anshir realize that he had underestimated the tacit understanding between the twins, and also ignored the subtle differences in hunting methods in different regions.

   What fell from the sky was not the barbed wire he imagined, but the medicine dust.

   The specific kind of dust Anshir naturally couldn't tell, Shui Yun hadn't been injured yet, so it shouldn't be life dust, it was nothing more than ghost dust, hardened dust and so on.

   Anshir felt relieved.

   Although the Dragon Sisters are not the kind of professional hunters who focus on hunting, they have already reached the five-star level. No matter how reckless they are, they will not make such low-level mistakes. It is because they think too much.

   It may be because of the continuous heavy blows of the hunters, or it may be the reason for the sprinkling of chemical dust, the Hammer Dragon was angry.

  It growled and took a big step forward, turning its fat body around.

  The Hammer Dragon's movements were not fast, Shui Yun set up the big shield in time, squatted down, leaned back with the shield, and entered a solid defensive posture.

"boom!"

  The thick giant tail covered with metal prisms slapped horizontally on the large shield, knocking Shui Yun back a long distance, but her defensive posture was still stable, her center of gravity was steady, and her steps were not chaotic.

  An Xier, who was always paying attention to the situation of his teammates, suddenly realized that the reason why Fengying is not a qualified forward is not the weight, but the skill.

  The deficiencies in body shape and weight can largely be made up for by skills.

  Shuiyun is more than ten centimeters taller than Fengying, and weighs up to 20 kilograms heavier. In front of monsters, there is almost no difference in size to this extent.

  When Shui Yun was defending against an attack just now, her center of gravity was lower than those tall forwards, and the angle of her shield was also adjusted.

   Coupled with excellent strength and balance, this may be the main reason why she can stand firm in front of such a powerful attack.

  Fengying should be able to sum up similar skills after spending enough time and pain, but it is still not as fast as someone teaching them.

  But neither Gordon, Hayatta, nor himself could teach her this.

  Gordon can learn by analogy through great sword skills, and can point out the skills of using Fengying giant axe. Hayata can guide her in terms of pace, movement, and movement coordination, and he can force her to endorse.

   But none of them have experience with large shields.

  The team needs Fengying to make up for the shortcomings in defense, and the reason why Fengying has not improved in this aspect is that this team is too offensive, and no one can teach her how to defend.

   If this continues, their team will only become more and more reckless, which seems to be an endless loop.

  Anshir felt his head hurting, so he quickly focused on the monster in front of him.

   Discuss with Gordon and the others when you go back. If you continue to strengthen Fengying's combat power in actual combat, the child has not fully laid a solid foundation and may collapse.
