Chapter 63: Burns
If you change to monsters like the Great Boar King, or the Blue Speed Dragon King, the damage done by Gordon and Ozura is enough to kill them.
But for the Peach-Haired Beastmaster, who was larger, had stronger defenses, and was much more tenacious, this was not enough.
Don't look at the knife wounds all over its body, bullet holes, in fact, except for the original sword slash, the rest of the wounds are superficial epidermal wounds, which can only cause pain and blood loss, and cannot play a role in determining the outcome of the battle.
Fortunately, the hunters are not in a hurry, in fact, "grinding damage" is the norm when hunting large monsters.
At this time, Oshura had already changed to the fourth LV3 regular magazine, and she only carried a total of five magazines of this type of ammunition, for a total of 60 LV3 normal rounds.
If you finish all of them, you can only use the slightly less powerful lv2 normal bullets.
"Bang, bang, bang......"
Taking advantage of the fact that the Peach Fur Beastmaster was in a state of fatigue, Ozura emptied the magazine as quickly as possible, and the usual loading capacity of 12 rounds at LV3 was already very rich for a light crossbow, but it was still not used.
Quickly swapping out the last lv3 magazine for the Strange Bird's Fury, Oshura couldn't help but glance at the red marked magazines at the end of the belt.
- Flame Bomb.
This special ammunition made with gunpowder herb as the main material will burn violently as it hits the target, and it is very effective against monsters with long fur and fear of fire, such as the Peach Fur Beastmaster.
But he remembered the scorched fur of the Peach Fur Beastmaster at the end of the previous hunt, and Gordon's suggestion on the way to the wetlands.
Oshura hesitated for a second, but finally pulled the magazine strap and pulled the magazine that LV2 normally bullets to a position that was easy to reload.
Flame bombs or something, let's wait until necessary.
The other side.
For Gordon, who is a great sword envoy, there is no such entanglement of Oshura, and the only thing he needs to worry about at this time is the sharpness of the blasting knife.
Blood, fat, will make the originally sharp blade dull.
The fierce battle with the Peach Fur Beastmaster had been going on for some time, and he could clearly feel that the Bursting Blade's hook and claw didn't feel as smooth as before.
Gordon was eager to find an opportunity to take out the stone to sort out the blade and restore the sharpness of the weapon, but at the moment, the Peach Fur Beastmaster was in a state of fatigue and his movements were becoming sluggish, which was the best opportunity to attack, so he had to wait for the sharpening of the knife.
Maybe it was because of the anger of the successive wounds, or maybe it was the half-burnt nitrified mushroom that he had just eaten that took effect, and the Peach-haired Beastmaster, who was already out of breath, suddenly stood up again.
After a roar of rage, it actually regained its spirits.
I saw it thump its claws on its chest a few times, and leaned down with its arms on the ground, with the hot gas of sparks mixed with a pungent stench, gushing out of its mouth and fanning towards Gordon.
As early as when the Peachfur Beastmaster patted his chest, Gordon realized that something was wrong.
When a monster makes an unusual move, it is usually preparing for some kind of special attack, which is common knowledge for hunters.
So, he put away his weapons in advance and began to retreat,
But even so, the Peach Fur Beastmaster's extremely wide range of searing breath still burned his left arm, and the alloy armor of the Refined Ore Suit was almost useless against this high-temperature gas.
Gordon felt like a bottle of boiling water had been poured on his left arm, and the burning pain was so intense that he couldn't help but let out a muffled grunt.
He could feel that the eyes of the Peach Fur Beast King were locked on him, and the fact that he was injured must not be revealed at this time, otherwise the other party would definitely take the opportunity to attack.
"It's just a mild burn."
Gritting his teeth to endure the severe pain, Gordon tugged at the corners of his mouth, pulled out the blasting knife again, and took the initiative to rush towards the Peach-haired Beast King who had just finished breathing.
The Peach-Haired Beast King obviously didn't expect that the damn hunter in front of him would actually be "unharmed" under its breath.
It was really tired, and the blood from the wounds all over its body had taken away too much of its strength, and if it continued like this, it might not be long before it actually collapsed.
"Whew!"
Flailing his arms to force the hunter back, the Peach Fur Beastmaster let out a menacing roar twice, then turned and climbed the rocky mountain with a agility that did not match his size, fleeing towards the rainforest in the distance.
Twenty meters away, Osura's offensive continued unstoppable.
A series of ballista followed the back of the Peach Fur Beastmaster, and it was not until the magazine was emptied that she unhurriedly took out a dyed bullet and filled it into the crossbow chamber of the Strange Bird's Fury.
Take a slight aim, fire.
"Smack!"
A special dye with a strong smell explodes behind the Peach Fur Beastmaster.
This dyed bullet is a crossbow version of the dyed balls that hunters often use to track monsters, and with it, hunters don't have to worry about losing the whereabouts of monsters.
Confirming that the Peach-Haired Beastmaster was far away, Ozura immediately put away the wrath of the strange bird and trotted to Gordon's side.
"Hurt?"
Gordon grinned and nodded, "Well, my left arm was burned down by the burning breath, but it shouldn't be serious." ”
Osura's expression immediately became serious, "Quickly remove the wrist armor and see, your metal armor is the least resistant to heat and flames." ”
With the help of Oshura, Gordon removed his left wrist armor, which was still somewhat hot.
Sure enough, his left arm was covered with blisters, and even the skin in two places had been glued to the metallic nail leaves.
After a closer examination, Oshura breathed a sigh of relief.
"You retreated in time, but you were burned by the hot gas on the edge of the breath, the problem is not very big, reply to the medicine belt, right?" Ashura said as she poured water from her bladder onto Gordon's left arm to cool her skin.
"Bring it."
Gordon took out the recovery medicine and poured it down in one go, smacking his lips and feeling that it might not be enough, so he filled the bottle again.
The effect of the recovery pill was as satisfactory as ever, and after two bottles of recovery pills, he sat down to rest for a few minutes, and Gordon felt the burning pain in the burned area of his left arm significantly lessen.
Even the wounds where the skin was broken and oozing blood were growing new skin with a tender pink color.
Oshura was holding a knife on the side to help Gordon pick out the bubbles, and under the follow-up effect of the recovery medicine, these torn coats would soon dry out and fall off, and there was no need to worry about infection.
Another few minutes passed.
Gordon moved his left arm, the burning pain had completely disappeared, replaced by the itching of the new skin growth, and he nodded in satisfaction, "Almost." ”
Osura was not overly concerned either.
For hunters who run around the hunting grounds all year round and fight with all kinds of monsters, this kind of burns on the skin level is no different from abrasions, and it can be healed after drinking two sips of recovery medicine and resting for a while.
Re-equipping his wrist armor, Gordon half-crouched, rested the blaster on his thigh, and began to sharpen his weapon.
"Well, do you need to go back to camp and rest?" Osura, who was sitting cross-legged with his chest crossed, asked.
"But don't, not letting that guy rest for one night doesn't mean starting all over again? When I'm done sharpening my knife, we'll catch up and get rid of it in one go. Gordon said with some viciousness.
Oshura also smiled when she heard this, "What you want is this momentum, go!" Before the sun sets, fix it! ”
