Chapter 38 On-site Teaching

On the stone road outside Minagard, a flatbed carriage pulled by a herbivorous dragon and without a carport is moving slowly.

With her helmet on her side and her back enjoying the sun and breeze with the pork chops, Hayatta poked her legs out of the board and swayed leisurely and relaxedly.

"I haven't been out of the city for a long time, and now it's far from the hunting ground, and the teacher said that you can relax a little~."

"Meow~"

Unlike Hayata, who was always kept "captive" within the city walls, Gordon didn't feel that the blue sky and white clouds and the weeds and wildflowers on the roadside were anything to be "enjoyed".

His attention was now all on the weapon behind Amos.

"Senior Amos, this weapon of yours is ...... Too knife? ”

No wonder he wondered, the appearance of this weapon was really too strange.

Different from the simple shape of the slender knife with a slight arc in the general impression, it looks more like a huge fork.

The hilt of the sword is very long, accounting for nearly half of the total length, and the ice-blue blade is slightly short and thick, and the tip of the sword is further widened and divided into two branches, reminiscent of the sharp fangs of a fierce beast.

"Oh? That's what you say. ”

Amos glanced at the weapon behind him, and his tone couldn't help but bring a little pride to his tone.

"That's right, the Ice Knife - White Ape Nagi [Extreme], which is made of materials from the tooth beast monster 'Snow Lion King', has been strengthened step by step, and finally became what it is now."

"Wow, what about weapons with attributes, it's the first time I've seen them!" Gordon couldn't help but move closer and take a closer look at the slightly transparent ice-blue blade.

"What is a 'property'?" Hearing the topic of interest, Hayatta also rolled over and sat up, leaning over, "Huh? Cool! ”

"Don't touch the sword, it's easy to get frostbite." Amos reminded the two of them, and then entered the "teaching mode", patiently explaining to Khayata the knowledge related to various attributes and monster weaknesses.

Gordon knew all these things, but of course he would not interfere with the teaching between master and apprentice, so in order to pass the time, he took off the blasting knife and used cloth and knife oil to maintain it.

"Why are the attributes of heavy weapons such as big swords and giant hammers not important?"

Amos was pleased with Hayata's inference, and her question caught Gordon's attention.

Attributes are not important to the greatsword? It turns out that there is still such a saying, it is a knowledge point that I don't know!

Gordon stopped what he was doing, tilted his head, and listened attentively.

Amos glanced at him with a smile and asked, "Gordon, when you use your greatsword to attack continuously, how often do you attack?" ”

Gordon thought for a moment and replied, "If you don't think about dodging and charging slashes, you can get a sword out in about two to three seconds." ”

Amos nodded and continued to explain: "The damage of a single attack of the Great Sword is very high, but the attack frequency is slow, while the attack frequency of the Tai Sword is more than one sword per second, and it will be even faster when using the Qi Slash.

For weapons with attributes, the extra attribute damage caused by each sword is basically fixed, so the higher the attack frequency, the greater the attribute effect.

The Twin Blades, which have the fastest attack speed, are particularly noticeable, but the additional attribute damage is the core part of the Twin Blades' output, so most of the Twin Blades will create multiple weapons with different attributes to target different hunting targets. ”

The two young people listening to the lecture nodded in unison, and the expectation and envy in Gordon's heart for attribute weapons also decreased.

......

Time passed like this, in teaching, chatting and resting.

The road faded away, and the low bushes and weeds on the side of the road were replaced by taller woody plants, and they finally reached the Metabe Jungle, where the target hunting ground was located.

It is a mega-forest covering an area of more than half a million square kilometers.

Due to its distance from the Simmeron Mountains, the terrain is relatively flat, with some low hills, but no high mountains, and much more lush vegetation.

If Gordon were to describe his state at this point, it would be like a fish in water.

The natural ecology of the two hunting grounds is quite similar, there is no need to adapt to it from scratch, and the gentle terrain eliminates the trouble of climbing the mountain and going down the ravine, and he likes it almost immediately.

When they arrived at the hunting grounds, they did not immediately go hunting, but came to the camp with the intention of resting for the night.

Hayatta was a little disappointed by this.

Gordon, who inadvertently noticed the former's expression, was a little speechless, he was very nervous when he followed the instructor into the hunting ground for the first time, how could she only look forward to it?

At the campfire in the hunters' camp, the pampered Hayatta tasted the "deliciousness" of carrying food for the first time.

She gritted her teeth......

Although it was hard to chew and salty, Hayatta chewed her portion little by little, with water.

This made Amos feel a little impressed.

Hayata's talent and courage had long been confirmed, and his only concern was whether the boy would be able to endure the hardships of being a hunter.

Now it seems that I am overly worried.

Pine, this precious niece of yours is more conscious than you think.

Nothing was said all night.

A new day arrives in a thin morning mist.

The first to rise was actually Hayata, and she couldn't wait for it.

Ignoring the little girl scurrying around the camp with a hunter's knife, Amos approached Gordon, who was checking the hunting items in his bag.

"Gordon, this crusade mission is with you as the main force, I need to protect Hayata, I won't attack unless there is a critical situation, no problem, right?"

"Of course." Gordon nodded briskly.

When he took the task, he said that since he was paid in full, it was reasonable for the other party not to participate in the hunt, and there was no need to borrow the power of Amos.

"Well, a word of caution, don't provoke too many odd faces at once, these little things are not low in intelligence, and they are good at using tools, so it will be a little troublesome to cooperate with each other."

"Got it!"

After one last check of equipment and props, the trio and the cat left the camp.

Gordon and Pork Chop walked in front, while Amos followed with Hayatta about ten meters behind.

Along the way, Hayatta had constant problems.

When she found that Gordon suddenly half-crouched down and picked up the weeds on the ground, she whispered again, "Teacher, what is Brother Gordon doing, looking for the footprints of monsters?" ”

Amos swept his eyes and said, "No, he is learning about the humidity of the environment through the state of the grass roots and the soil. ”

"Ambient humidity?"

"Well, the seasons, the temperature, the weather, the landforms, the habits of monsters, etc., all of these are relatively independent and interlocking."

As he spoke, Amos crouched down and plunged his fingertips into the soil, pulling out a piece of grass root, and Hayatta did the same, but his delicate fingers could not penetrate the soil.

Holding up the grass roots with the wet soil to Hayata, Amos said, "From the grass roots with the soil alone, we can extract a lot of information, such as that it rained here in one day. ”

Seeing that Hayatta was still confused, Amos smiled and threw away the grass roots, patted the soil off his hands, and stood up.

"Hunting isn't just about slashing monsters with a knife, keep watching, that kid's basic skills are very solid, it seems that he has a pretty good instructor."
