Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1264 Are you finally willing to change?
I was woken up in the middle of the night and someone said they had found a distress signal and the location indicated by the flare was in the northwest.

Gordon jumped out of bed in shock.

Since most hunters have returned to Xingchen, the Moon Base is short-handed and has been shrinking its defenses, Gordon and others rarely issue missions that require staying out overnight.

Therefore, no matter whether they are hunters, investigators, or members of the transport team, they will try their best to return to the base before dark.

This evening, when we were counting the personnel, we confirmed that everyone had returned, except for the swordsmanship master who set out to hunt the Frost Blade Ice Fang Dragon before noon, and Oshula who set out to hunt the Ice Fish Dragon at about the same time.

The direction of the icefish dragon is in the east, so who could have sent out the distress signal?
Is Nema's old Ice Fang Dragon so powerful? He first defeated Gene, and now the swordsmanship master can't stand it? !

Gordon hurriedly changed his equipment, picked up his weapons, arranged for several hunters to guard the doctor, and set off first on a sled.

He quickly walked to the dragon shed where the winterwing dragons were tamed.

After a period of feeding and training, these large pterosaurs with heads like venomous snakes are finally less aggressive.

But it will take a long time to successfully domesticate it and use it safely as a means of transportation.

If you insist on using it now, it may easily become disobedient or cause a crash.

But he couldn't care less now, so he chose the largest and strongest Winter Winged Dragon and released it out of the fence.

Facing Gordon's approaching strides, the Winter Winged Dragon was about to let out a demonstrative scream, but was pinched by the neck and hit hard by the former, and then released his breath to intimidate it.

Finally he is honest.

"Go west! Fly quickly, or I'll roast you!"

It turned out that physical education was very effective. The Winter Wing Dragon flew fast and steadily along the way. It took only ten minutes to take Gordon to the vicinity of the target area.

The blood of the Ice Fang Dragon all over the snow was extremely conspicuous in the air, and Gordon commanded the Winter Wing Dragon to land.

The landing was also smooth, but as soon as Gordon released the claws, the winter dragon flew desperately into the snow forest and returned to the embrace of nature.

I guess I will never go back.
Gordon didn't have time to care about these things, so he would just send people to catch a few more later.

With his hand on the hilt of the sword, he trotted towards the body of the Frost Blade Icefang Dragon.

At this moment, Gordon's heart almost rose to his throat.

The scene where the monster and the hunter were lying in a pool of blood looked like they had died together.

If something really happened to the swordsmanship master, not only would the old guys from the first group not let him go, he himself would not let him go.

Damn it, they shouldn’t have let this old man out alone!

When he was about ten meters away from the Frost Blade Ice Fang Dragon, Gordon slowed down his pace and approached with caution. After all, he couldn't completely confirm whether the giant beast was really dead.

There are monsters that play dead.
Only when he arrived in front of the Ice Fang Dragon and confirmed that the monster's pupils had dilated and its breathing had stopped did Gordon let go of the hilt of the sword and quickly walked to the side of the swordsmanship master.

It turned out that the swordsman was found lying in a big letter position in his cloak, snoring in the thick hair on the belly of the Ice Fang Dragon.

The corners of his mouth twitched violently a few times.

"**of."

At dawn, the sled carrying Gordon, the sword master, the rescuers, and a lot of Frost Blade Ice Fang Dragon materials returned to Yuechen.

Inside the stronghold, the people who had been nervous all night finally felt relieved.

Nellie complained that Gene also wanted to run away last night, and she and the doctors had to use a lot of effort to hold him down.

So Gordon scolded him severely.

There was no other way. The swordsmanship master was old enough to be his grandfather. How could he scold the old man? He should vent his anger on the younger generation.

At the same time, he did not forget to write a letter to the commander-in-chief.

The letter seemed to be a report on a hunting mission, but in fact it emphasized a series of things that made things difficult for the swordsman, such as hunting at night, not using props when necessary, and so on.

Hopefully the Commander-in-Chief can teach this old guy a lesson.

The swordsmanship master was in an especially good mood.

When he personally carried the pile of Frost Blade Ice Fang Dragon materials to the counter of the processing shop, the leader of the second phase group stared at the one-eye and asked, "Who are you?!"

When the leader of the second group heard the swordsmanship master say that he wanted to use these materials to create a new set of armor, he couldn't help but stand up.

"You old bastard, you've been wearing this old, tattered female dragon suit for almost half a century, and you've replaced the scales and shells several times. Are you finally willing to change it?"

The sword master smiled and nodded.

"Good fellow, then we have to roll up our sleeves and work hard, and try to make you use it until you are a hundred years old." The leader of the second group joked.

"It's just that your order will have to be postponed a little bit. The crossbow of Oshura is still being processed. That order is more urgent."

"fine."

Coincidentally, Oshula, who had also finished hunting overnight, ran into the processing room carrying the materials and holding pork chops.

"Bang!" He put the pile of materials on the counter, and with dark circles under his eyes, Oshula raised his chin towards the leader of the second group and said, "It should be all ready, please give me some information.

"Huh? Sword Master? How are you injured?"

"Meow?" Pork Chop, who was held in Oshula's arms, meowed twice to express his surprise.

He was not wearing the female fire dragon armor, but only light clothes, with some blood-stained bandages showing at his collar. This was the first time I had seen a swordsmanship master like this.

The swordsmanship master touched his chest, muttered "old" under his breath, then turned and left the processing room.

The leader of the second group behind the counter laughed, "Listen to that old guy's nonsense, he just hunted the Frost Blade Ice Fang Dragon alone last night and the materials are all piled up there.

I heard from Gordon that it was a special species of Ice Fang Dragon, and its danger level was among the highest among the seven-star monsters."

Oshura blinked as she listened.

What's going on? I hunted an icefish dragon overnight and felt I was pretty efficient, but how did that guy manage to hunt that thing alone and come back earlier than me?

“He was a monster when he was young, and he’s still an old monster when he’s older.” The leader of the second group smacked his lips and patted the counter to draw the attention back to Oshula and Pork Chop.

"We've almost finished processing your Mudfish Dragon Assault Crossbow. If there's no problem with the materials you brought back, we'll hurry up and try to get you the Icefish Dragon Launcher before dawn tomorrow.

Look at it, frozen ice bones, the special fins of the ice fish dragon, thick scales, heavy teeth, instant freezing bag, and big dragon jade. Well, it is indeed complete.

But this dragon jade and the frozen bag don't look like they were freshly peeled off?"

Oshura laughed dryly, "Haha. These two items were obtained by Pigpie in exchange with the Beast Clan."

"No wonder. Don't be so nervous. The situation is urgent right now, so it's understandable that we have to use some special methods to obtain the materials."

“With the Great Dragon Jade and the Instant Freeze Bag as the core, the frost energy contained in the material can be fully utilized.

But you have to be careful, the crossbow body and handle may be cold to your hands, so remember to find suitable leather to wrap them to avoid frostbite.

Well, something like the skin of the Frostwing Wind Dragon is pretty good." The leader of the second group scratched his prickly beard, hinting at something.

Oshura nodded thoughtfully, calculating in her mind.

Gale had indeed boasted to her that the hide of a Frostwing Winddrake was always covered in frost, which was cool but not freezing to the touch, and was magical.

It shouldn't be against the rules if I ask her for a favor to wrap the crossbow handle, right?

Ps.
　The Ice Fish Dragon Launcher requires the "Frost Covered Skin" of the Frostwing Wind Drifter, but where can I find it?
