Although the Abandoned God Community is very close to Flamefire Village, it still takes two or three hours to get there. If they don't hurry, it might not be until the afternoon when they arrive at the Abandoned God Shrine.
Although it wasn't late in the afternoon, considering they had taken on two missions at the same time, and one of them was quite difficult, Zhao said it was better to arrive as early as possible.
Angel and Lina followed suit and mounted the dog saddle. Then, as if she had thought of something, Angel stretched out her hand towards Ellu on the ground.
The girl who had just been so bold in expressing her love was now blushing.
Angie chuckled, displaying her poised and graceful demeanor. As if sensing her intent, the hound beneath her moved a little closer to Ailu, and Angie decisively pulled Ailu onto the hound saddle.
Ailu let out a sharp meow, then suddenly covered her face with her paws.
Flame's eyes were a little dazed.
What's going on with this Palico that looks like a female demon who's been brutally murdered? Where did your dashing image go, the one with the rose in your mouth making a heartfelt confession?!
With a sigh, deciding to ignore the good-for-nothing Palico, Flame rubbed the Onion Dog Head that had appeared beside him at some unknown time, sitting upright like a loyal guardian.
Although his two unruly sons always appear together, Onion is much less troublesome for Flame than Ailu.
-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
As time passed, the sun slowly reached its highest point of the day, and then gradually set.
The hunter's camp was greeted by some noisy footsteps. Flame, who was rushing in, jumped off his saddle and smiled as he looked at Angie and Lina, who were staring at the camp with wide, curious eyes.
To prevent monsters from destroying the camp, hunter camps are usually located in relatively steep and narrow places where monsters have difficulty getting close. The camp in front of them is a typical example.
The small camp was set up with a campfire and storage boxes for hunters to temporarily store their items, as well as item boxes set up by the guild.
"Line, please take the trouble to bring all the medicines from the supplies, especially the antidote."
"Ah good!"
After directing Linne to take out the recovery and antidote supplies from the item box and put them into her backpack, Lieyan raised her head and looked towards the sky.
"Mr. Blazing Flame, what are you looking at?"
"I'm watching birds."
Blazing Flames squinted at the small black dot hovering in the sky not far away.
That was the Fukuki Owl he released.
Unlike outsiders who use experience or guide bugs to track monsters, the hunters of Flamefire Village usually use Fukumo Owls for this task. After training, these intelligent birds can easily find the hunter's target at an altitude of thousands of meters and even pinpoint the target's location.
People who have seen it on the blue planet of the New World are so envious they could cry.
After all, the guide bug in the Ancient Tree is just as bad as a bad navigation system in Chongqing – even if the destination is right, you have no idea how far it will take you on a detour!
But Fukumo Owl is different. Not only can it pinpoint the location of monsters, but if you give it a map, it can even tell you which area the monster is in!
I hereby unilaterally declare that Fukuki Owl is the only one who tracks down the true god!
Seeing that Fukuki Owl had already begun circling above a certain area, Flame's lips curled up slightly.
Target found!
Chapter 93: Departure, Hunting Begins!!
The place where Lieyan and his companions are currently located is called the Abandoned Shrine.
It may sound exaggerated, but this map, which is designated as a hunting area, encompasses mountains and bamboo forests, covering more than a third of the entire map. It was indeed once a shrine dedicated to some kind of deity.
(It's said that some researchers have dug up information suggesting that the abandoned shrine originally enshrined the Wind and Thunder Dragons. I don't know much about this, so I don't know if it's true.)
However, these ancient shrine buildings have been abandoned for who knows how long. Everything that remains has long been covered with mottled moss traces under the erosion of time. Now, the man-made parts have been reduced to a great extent, and what remains has become part of the natural scenery of the abandoned shrine.
"This is the abandoned shrine..."
"Yes, this is the abandoned shrine, meow. It used to be a gathering place for humans, but it was destroyed by some unknown entity, meow. Now there are no traces of humans left here. Only some Palicoes and the descendants of Melalu who once lived here live in their own communities, meow."
Listening to Angie's感慨 (feelings/reflections), Ailu calmly explained from the side.
Compared to before, Ailu has now abandoned her shyness and returned to the calm demeanor that Flame is most familiar with.
As a Palico that clearly separates work and personal life, it doesn't let its emotions affect its work; this is its principle, which is why it appears so calm at this moment. Emotions like shyness are a major taboo.
"Hey, you two over there, come over here for a tactical meeting."
The voice of the dwarven veteran came from not far away. Without lingering, Angie and Ailu quickly arrived at the camp tent.
In front of the tent was a flat bluestone, on which were laid out quest scrolls about the Poison Bird and the Rathian. Beside the bluestone stood Flame and the stoic veteran Grace. The seemingly frail Linne walked over from the direction of the supply box set up by the guild, with a magnificent fanged hound beside her carrying two full packages.
Just now, Lieyan told her to take out all the potions from the supply box for later use.
Perhaps because the targets of the mission are Pukei-Pukei and Rathian, the supplies provided by the guild this time included an unusually large number of antidotes, and even some traditional Chinese medicine and herbal powder.
Including other emergency recovery items like G-grade medicine and dry rations, the supplies this time are quite plentiful.
Of course, it can't compare to the supplies available for missions in Yukumo Village.
The supplies for the quest in Yukumo Village are not only plentiful, but they also don't need to be recycled... Ahem, I digress.
"Our next target is the Poison Bird. Generally speaking, the Poison Bird is about ten meters long—you should rarely see monsters of this size in the dungeon."
"Yes, a ten-meter monster is considered super-large. Apart from the floor master, there are very few monsters in the dungeon that can have such a size."
Grace, who was listening in, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
"Right, but let's not talk about the dungeon now. Let's continue talking about the Poison Bird. This guy is a herbivore. His attack methods are usually quite monotonous. As long as you are careful, you can dodge them. Angie, Lina, you are both experienced fighters. I don't need to tell you how to adapt to changing situations."
"of course."
Anqi smiled, radiating strong confidence.
She certainly has the right to be confident.
As a Level 4 adventurer of the Loki Familia, this agile cat-woman warrior who accompanied the Familia on its expedition to the 50th floor can be described as a seasoned veteran; she is a true thorny rose.
Meanwhile, Linne, who looks quiet and gentle, is not to be outdone. Although she is only LV2 and is a healer who seems to have nothing to do with combat, she is no pushover, having also been to the 50th floor with the team. If necessary, she will not hesitate to use her staff to crack open the enemy's head.
You can't survive in dungeons that are even deeper than the deepest level without some skill, even if you're in a group.
It's perfectly reasonable to say that every member of Loki's Familia possesses unique skills.
"Another thing is the precautions for defeating the Poisonous Bird. Although I have already briefly mentioned it before, I think it is necessary to repeat it."
Lieyan cleared his throat.
"There aren't many things to pay attention to on the Poisonous Bird, only two: its tongue and its venom."
Needless to say, the tongue is fast and has a wide attack range, but as long as you pay attention to its movements, you can easily dodge it by creating distance. In fact, if you are in a good position, you can even attack the Poison Bird's tongue directly. Although its tongue is a flexible weapon, its flesh is also the best part of the Poison Bird's body. Moreover, once it is injured, the pain will make the Poison Bird tremble all over, thus creating a better opportunity for us.
The toxins, whether sprayed from the beak or tail of the Poison Bird, will remain on the ground for a considerable time. If you accidentally step into such a poison trap while the toxins are still present, you will be poisoned.
However, the poison of the Poison Bird isn't particularly potent; as long as the antidote is taken in time, there will be no problem.
Lieyan meticulously described the Poison Bird's weaknesses, and both Angeline and Grace listened attentively.
This knowledge about the ecology of monsters fascinated them quite a bit.
The monsters they face in the dungeon are produced by the dungeon itself and are unique beings that cannot be fathomed by common sense. This alone makes any ecological research on dungeon monsters fall into an awkward situation.
Over time, this fostered a habit among adventurers of only considering how to kill monsters in the least strenuous way.
Unfortunately, the monsters in Monster Hunter World don't allow them to destroy the Materia for an instant victory. On the contrary, each monster is incredibly tough, and most importantly, it feels like you can run away even if you can't beat them.
Especially with flying monsters, once they spread their wings and run, it might take traversing many areas to catch them.
Yes, I'm talking about you.
Female Rathalos!!
"Alright, that's about it for the Poisonous Bird. Linne, relax. With our strength, defeating it shouldn't be difficult. The key is whether we can learn some tricks for fighting the creatures of this world during this battle."
Lieyan clapped his hands, gave the somewhat nervous little girl an encouraging smile, and then waved his hand.
"lets go."
Let the hunt begin!!!
I caught up on a manga while watching the new anime series, and it was an unfortunate time.
I caught up on anime this morning and discovered the interesting premise of an unfortunate immortal. I took a look at the manga out of curiosity and became completely engrossed.
The plot is incredibly exciting, especially after the turning point in the middle, the later stages are even more exhilarating.
I'm going to go write now. I've been so busy reading comics today that I haven't even started writing a single word yet. Damn, at my typing speed, it'll probably be 4 or 5 in the morning before I finish... Everyone go to bed early, no need to wait.
over!
Chapter 94: The Poisonous Demon Bird!
With Fukuki Owl's guidance, the group moved swiftly and entered the area where the Poisonous Bird was located in no time.
Whether it's due to quantum entanglement or some other random reason, the abandoned shrine, just like in the game, is divided into thirteen areas. From the hunter's camp, after crossing a river, the area that can be reached is Area 1, while the area where the Poisonous Bird is located is Area 4, which is adjacent to Area 1. There is a road connecting the two areas.
Unlike venturing into dungeons for adventure and expeditions, hunters don't have as many worries when hunting. Once they lock onto a target, they only need to hunt it down in one go.
And all of this is thanks to the Hunter's Guild.
To be honest, Blaze has always believed that if you were to choose the best guild in all the worlds, it would definitely be the Hunter Guild in the Monster Hunter world.
Intelligence gathering before the hunt, and preparation of corresponding supplies according to the mission; the guild's preparation of cat carts during the hunt; the recovery and disposal of monster corpses after the hunt, and the repair and crafting of equipment.
The guild basically takes care of everything that can improve the efficiency of hunters, providing comprehensive logistical support, much like an ICU nanny.
Most importantly, this series of services are mostly free. Normally, the guild will only receive income after the hunter successfully hunts a monster—and that is, the income is only what is left after the hunter takes a portion of the valuable materials.
In contrast, look at Orario's Adventurers' Guild...
Forget it, there's no comparison at all. Except for the fact that the Hunter's Guild is limited by the small number of hunters and can't compare to the Adventurer's Guild in terms of personnel, the Hunter's Guild is completely superior in every other aspect.
It wasn't just a complete victory, it was a crushing defeat with a thousand Parsons.
Ahem, I’ve gone off topic.
Upon entering Zone 4, a gigantic figure instantly came into the sight of Blazing Flame and his group.
It was a typical bird-like bird wyvern, but its body structure seemed to be more like that of a small bipedal, biwinged flying wyvern, with a body length of about ten meters.
It was one of the targets of Lieyan and his companions' mission: the Poisonous Bird.
