Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1265: Pork Chop First, Who's Second?
The journey went smoother than expected. On the sixth day after leaving the Star Base, Oshura returned carrying her brand new "Ice Fish Dragon Launcher".

She really couldn't let go of this new crossbow.

A light crossbow that can rapidly fire two types of crossbow bullets is not unprecedented, but it is definitely extremely rare.

What’s more, they are water-cooled bombs and ice-frozen bombs.

Generally speaking, monsters that don't like water also don't have a very good tolerance to cold and frost.

There are countless similar examples, such as the Fire Dragon, the Horned Dragon, the Thunder Wolf Dragon, the Dragon Slayer, and even the Flame King Dragon and the Flame Queen Dragon.

The name "Ice Fish Dragon Launcher" may not look impressive, and the source of its material does not seem to be any monster with a very high danger level, but its practicality is absolutely beyond doubt.

It's true that my hands are a little cold.
After returning to Oshula's Star Base, he first handed Gordon's letter of complaint to the commander-in-chief, then asked around and learned that Gail Anhill and the others had not returned yet.

He had no choice but to shamelessly go to Hayata and ask for a piece of "frost-covered skin" from her.

Then he ran to the Star Processing Shop and asked Isana who stayed there to help with the processing. Finally, he solved the problem of cold air overflow from the Ice Fish Dragon Launcher and truly completed the weapon.

Strictly speaking, this is an illegal transaction, but to put it mildly, it's just using a piece of scrap material to wrap a handle, and everyone turns a blind eye to it.

After solving the problem of weapons, Oshula pulled a large cart of materials and rushed into the house.

This time, she decided to follow Ansel's example and strictly follow old man Miles' teachings of "over-preparation" and mix a large number of ice bombs and water-cooled bombs.

Three bases? I'm afraid it's not enough. Let's start with five bases. It's definitely too much to carry. We can store them in the camp first.

Even if you are a 30-meter-long dragon, I will still freeze you completely!
In the week after confirming the existence of the Explosive Crusher, the top hunters were ordered to stay in the stars, recuperate, and be ready to attack at any time.

Several elite hunter teams were dispatched to continue tracking and investigating the whereabouts of the Ice Curse Dragon.

As for the work of monitoring the Explosive Crusher.
Taking into account the violent character of the Explosive Crusher and its extremely strong desire to attack, the commander-in-chief decided to arrange for the Cat Hunting Team to conduct covert surveillance.

In this regard, hunting cats have a much greater advantage than hunters.

As for who will lead this team, it will naturally be the strongest hunting cat.

In today's investigation team, which hunting cat is the strongest?
Now that the head chef has retired and become the chef de cuisine, there will be no controversy over this issue.

Pork chop, of course.

But Pig Chop is currently in the Yuechen base, assisting Gordon in handling some matters, and cannot rush back to lead the hunting cats.

Then the question comes back again, who is second only to Pig Chop in strength and experience and is currently in the Star Stronghold and can lead the Cat Hunting Team?
The answer to this question.
Feng Ying leaned close to Hayata and asked in a low voice: "Sister Hayata, are you really not going to reconsider it?

Can this guy really do it?"

Xianglan, who has sharp hearing and extremely pointy ears, turned around angrily and meowed shrilly, "What do you mean by meow? What's wrong with me?!
If you, Fengying, can be the leader of the fifth group, why can't I lead the Cat Hunters?!
Besides, meow, in the entire investigation team, apart from the stupid Pork Chop, meow, who is stronger than me, meow?!"

Feng Ying thought for a moment, "Sandstone? Didn't he make you cry during the last duel?"

Xianglan was furious after being exposed in front of her, and screamed, "Meow! That time doesn't count, meow! I didn't cry, I just got hit on the tip of my nose by the shield, meow!

Besides, that muscle guy is stronger than me and better at fighting, in what way is he better than me?!"

Feng Ying really wanted to say that, except for not being good at first aid and not being able to dance to cheer, Shayan should be better than you in every way.

The latter has not been a hunting cat for a particularly long time, only about four or five years.

But before that, it had always been the warrior leader of the martial desert guardian clan.

His leadership is beyond doubt, his martial arts skills are on par with Pork Chop's, and his strength is even better.

Compared to it, perhaps the only advantage Xianglan has is that she was taught by Dongfeng, the leader of the secret team in Yanhuo Village, and knows some strange skills.

Like flying a kite or something.

Also, Sandstone is currently following his master Gale in the Miasma Valley to confront the Mist Hazrat, and it is even more impossible for him to spare the time to come back.

Otherwise, how could it be your turn? !

Hayata sighed, patted Fengying's head, and signaled her to say less teasing words to Xianglan.

He grabbed Xianglan's neck and pulled away Ailu, who was trying to rush up and scratch Fengying.

This man and this cat have often quarreled and harmed each other since they first met.

In Jieyun Village, when they were still novices, they often fought for the "attack position" at the tip of the monster's tail, insisting that the other party was the burden to the team.

Now one of them is the "White Wind" who is famous in the New and Old Worlds and is a seven-star hunter who is one of the best among the younger generation.

Although the other one seems unreliable due to his personality, that is only true for people he knows.

In the eyes of others, he is definitely one of the most powerful cat hunters. Not to mention leading a cat hunting team, he is more than qualified to be an instructor for novice cat hunters.

I'm afraid that even after another ten years, they will still be quarreling like this.

Hayata put Xianglan aside and rubbed his head, “Stop arguing, you’re making fun of the younger generations.

You don't have much experience in commanding, so be careful. Don't act recklessly just because you can burrow underground. The Explosive Dragon's heavy punch can shatter the ground. Even if you hide underground, you will not get any good results. Be careful."

Xianglan and Fengying stuck out their tongues and made faces at each other, then they changed back to a well-behaved expression and nodded at Hayata.

Feng Ying also squatted down and repeatedly warned Mushroom who was about to follow Xianglan, "Don't think about 'digging meat' this time. Safety is the first priority. Try not to expose yourself to the target and just monitor from a distance.

Your captain is a fool. You have to take care of yourself. When it runs, don't just stand there in a daze. Follow it quickly. Got it?"

Mushroom nodded and said something good for Xianglan, "Teacher Xianglan is very good, meow, don't worry meow."

Xianglan happily hugged the mushroom, licked it a few times, and said to Fengying proudly: "Did you hear that, meow? Everyone recognizes me, meow!
You guys agree, meow?"

The other two Ailu standing aside looked at each other and nodded repeatedly.

One of the two Elu is named Li Zi, who is good at using boomerangs and is quite good at luring monsters.

The other one is called Wild Boar. Although the name is a bit strange, it is a very traditional melee cat.

They are all hunting partners of the elite hunters of the Fifth Regiment. This time they will form a cat hunting team with Pandan Mushroom and act together.

Glancing at the sky, Hayata smiled and said, "The weather looks good, suitable for flying. Let's set off as soon as possible. If everything goes well, we can reach the Molten Mountain Canyon before dark.

Report any situation promptly and be careful on the road."

"I understand, meow!"

Xianglan puffed out her belly and waved her paw in a very imposing manner, "All meows, check the equipment, food, cold drinks and other supplies for the last time, meows, report back when the check is completed, meows!"

"Mushrooms are fine meow!"

"Chestnut too, meow!"

"The boar is fine, meow."

"Very good meow! Let's go meow!"

Led by Xianglan, the hunting cats boarded the pterosaurs one after another and disappeared into the early night.
