Chapter 64: "Teaching" in the Hunt
A few whistles.
After receiving Gordon's signal, he used the bomb barrel to ignite the nitrified mushrooms of the Peach Fur Beast King, and immediately rushed back with the few remaining Peach Fur Beasts in the lair who didn't know where to go.
The little guy with a keen sense of smell is a good hand at tracking scents, and the residue of the scent that can be smelled by ordinary humans is as clear and conspicuous to it as a road sign.
Everything was ready, with an order from Osura.
The hunt began.
At first, the speed of the Peach-haired Beastmaster was very fast, climbing mountains and forests as if walking on the ground, and soon opened a large distance with the hunters.
Gordon didn't feel anxious about this, let alone rush up and waste his physical strength, but followed the original pace and tracked all the way.
Because they all knew very well that the badly injured Peach Fur Beastmaster would not be able to run for a long time.
Its quick movements are just to get rid of the hunters, and then find a safe place, eat something, and rest well to recover from its injuries.
If it weren't for the effect of the dyed bullet, maybe it would have been able to escape, but now, it can't.
"Looking at the direction, it seems to have turned a corner, running out of the rainforest and heading towards the swamp." After looking up at the sun and checking the direction, Gordon spoke.
"That's right, meow!"
"Oh~, then I probably know where it's heading." Osura's tone became cheerful.
"How?"
"After leaving the rainforest zone in this direction, continue two kilometers and there is a swamp suitable for mushrooms, which is the 'dining table' frequented by the peach fur beasts.
The Peach-haired Beastmaster should be planning to go there to forage for food and regain his strength. ”
Recalling a map of the nearby area in his mind, and comparing the direction they were traveling to the distance Oshura had said, Gordon said with some uncertainty: "That location, it doesn't seem too far from the camp?" ”
"Well, to the northwest of the camp, more than a kilometer in a straight line." Osura, who had been to the wetlands many times, immediately replied in confirmation, "If it weren't for the bad route, I would have been able to go back and replenish my ammunition." ”
"Running out of ballistas?"
Oshula tugged at his armed belt and said, "Lv3 usually runs out of ammunition, Lv2 uses a small half, and Lv1 still has a lot left, oh yes, the flame bomb and the piercing bullet are not used yet, and the armor grenade also has three." ”
"Hey, forget the flame bomb, save yourself the few hairs you dreamed of burning." Gordon smiled and said, "Then you're going to run away again this time." ”
"Shut up! You crow's mouth! Oshura glared angrily.
"Speaking of what a thorough grenade is, it sounds like it's very powerful."
Oshura braked, and Gordon ran a few more steps forward alone, only then did he turn around, "What's wrong?" ”
Oshura glared at him and said, "You don't know what a grenade is?" This is common sense, but what about the bullet? What about diffusion bombs, paralysis bombs, and splinter bombs? ”
Gordon scratched his chin a little helplessly, the lack of basic knowledge was indeed his biggest flaw, and Ernest saw that he was not interested in long-range weapons at the time, so he didn't teach him these things.
I don't know it, I don't know, Gordon didn't have a good face, but generously admitted: "I really haven't understood, I haven't been in contact with shooter hunters before."
You can guess the latter types of ammunition you mentioned from the name, but the armor grenade is ...... So what the hell is that for? Will it explode? ”
Ozura grinded her teeth and ran again, patiently explaining, "When teaming up with melee hunters, we don't usually use scattered bullets and diffuse bullets, which are easy to accidentally injure.
Penetrating bullets, slashing bullets, just like you said, just take them literally, poison bombs, paralysis bombs, sleep bombs, and so on.
The Thorough Grenade is special, and it has some relevance to you swordsmen when it comes to using it, so listen carefully to me.
It was a large ballista that detonated with a delay, pierced into the monster's carapace, and then exploded, hence the name 'Piercing Grenade'.
We usually use it to attack monsters' heads, and deep explosions will cause monsters to faint, which is very useful.
However, it is important to note that the explosion of a thoroughlift grenade is not small, and if you get too close, you may be affected and injured.
The main purpose of delaying the detonation is to give you time to avoid it, don't stand there stupidly and be bombed, do you understand? ”
"Uh-huh! I see! Gordon put on the appearance of a well-behaved and good student, "Speaking of Oshura, senior Osura, what does the armor grenade look like, can you show me?" ”
It's going to explode! Men love to explode! In addition to the bomb barrel of the sleep slash......
"Well, that's it."
Oshura removed a crossbow about the size of her forearm from her belt, shook it in front of Gordon, and before the latter could take it and look it closely, she put it back.
Just kidding, this is a dangerous good, how can you give a layman like you to play casually?
Although it was only a second or two, Gordon, who was in good strength, could still see the appearance of the ballista.
The all-metal shell, iron-gray in color, was topped by a sharp steel cone as long as a palm, which was used to nail into the carapace of the monster, and the huge body behind it was apparently filled with gunpowder, and the end was also equipped with a tail to stabilize its flight direction.
It's really amazing!
Looking at Gordon's envious gaze, Oshura also thought about showing off, "Hmph, when I see the Peach Fur Beast King in a while, I'll use a few shots to open your eyes!" ”
"Wow, wow, wow! ... Uh, wait, Oshura-senpai, you just said that this armor-piercing grenade was shot at the monster's head? ”
"Of course, it was originally used to stun monsters, so what's the point of shooting other parts?"
"You used this when you hunted the Peach-Haired Beastmaster before?"
"I've used it!" Oshura looked as a matter of course, "I'll tell you that it's super easy to use, if you send it down in two or three times, the Peach Fur Beast King will keep his head crooked and his eyes slanted!" ”
Gordon: "......"
"What's wrong?" Gordon's sudden silence puzzled Osura.
"Osura-senpai."
"Speak quickly! Don't be weird! ”
"Don't use a thorough-armor grenade on the Peach Fur Beastmaster for a while."
"Why?"
"The few 'brightly colored hairs' you want, since the flame bomb can be burned, the armor grenade should also be able to be blown up."
“......”
"After hunting the seven-headed peach fur beast king, they can't get the materials they want, and the prisoners among them ......"
“......”
"It's you!"
"Shut up! Shut me up! ”
......
After chasing the smell and walking out of the densely planted rainforest belt, the footprints left by the Peach Fur Beast King were much clearer, and you could see a lot of traces of blood spilled along the way.
Judging from the shape, depth, and distance of the footprints, the Peach Fur Beastmaster had slowed down, and even limped a little, and it seemed that this escape was not easy for it.
It got weaker.
Osura, who had read the information from the footprints and bloodstains, looked at Gordon at each other, and they immediately quickened their pace.
- If you can arrive before the Peach Fur Beastmaster eats a lot to recover his strength, everything will be easy.
