Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 11 Explosive Knife

The words paused, the instructor's expression softened, and he explained: "This system is not a restriction, but a protection.

The strength of a hunter can be divided into two parts: 'self-strength' and 'equipment'. If you lack the latter, you will fail to hunt, and if you lack the former, you will lose your life. Do you understand what I mean? "

Gordon nodded thoughtfully.

With the instructor's strength and equipment, there is a chance to hunt flying dragons.

Let the instructor put on his own equipment. Although it is difficult to kill the flying dragon, it will not hinder his life.

Conversely, if you put yourself on the instructor's equipment and go to fight the flying dragon, then you will never come back.

Not relying on others, this is a rule of principle, in order to prevent some hunters from being opportunistic and eventually losing their lives.

"I see, then instructor, with the materials I have now, can I make any great sword?" Gordon, having figured it out, stopped worrying about the great sword for training, and turned his attention to what he had. material.

"If I remember correctly, you have iron ore and earth crystals as ore materials, right?"

Although it was a question sentence, the instructor's tone was very affirmative. He knew all of Gordon's actions on the hunting ground in the past two years.

"Well, that's right!"

Compared with the instructor, Gordon himself doesn't remember very clearly what materials are in the storage box at home.

"A large amount of iron ore and earth crystals, plus a special mineral called ice crystal from the snow mountain, can create a steel sword called 'Explosive Knife'.

This big sword is strong and durable, and the sharpness of the green cut is also enough to allow you to use it in the three-star hunter period.

It can be said that this is a weapon that many sword hunters will choose to forge in the early stage. "

When Gordon heard this, his expression became very subtle.

He naturally wanted this "Explosive Knife" very much, but what's the use of wanting it? What kind of "ice crystal" does he lack?

There was a rare smile on the corner of the instructor's mouth, and he said: "Of all the materials for making weapons and armor, the only material that is allowed to be traded is ore materials①.

Of course, there are restrictions on the types of ores. Now that you are a one-star hunter, the types of ores that are allowed to buy are only the most common ones.

I just happen to have ice crystals, and the material level is not too high. "

Gordon was overjoyed when he heard that.

The "Ore is allowed to be traded" policy set by the guild is also out of human considerations.

After all, most of the ore materials can be easily obtained, just bring an iron pickaxe to tap the ore veins, but the production is completely restricted by the region.

You can't let him travel thousands of miles across most of the continents, and go to the snow-capped mountains just to dig a few worthless ores, right?

that was too painful

He has a swift and decisive personality, and once he has made a decision, he will execute it immediately.

Bringing the iron ore and earth crystals accumulated over the past two years, as well as the ice crystals provided by the instructor, Gordon came to the workshop.

After asking the master craftsman, I found out that even if all the materials are provided, the manual cost of making the explosive knife is as high as more than two thousand, nearly three thousand z.

It is more than ten times that of ordinary knives.

This order directly used up all the savings he had accumulated in the past two years. If the instructor hadn't promised Bing Crystal to pay on credit first, all his net worth added up would not be enough to make a big sword.

He went bankrupt in one day, but he didn't regret it at all.

Looking at the forge in the workshop lit by the high temperature of burning coal, Gordon's eyes were full of expectation.

Unlike ordinary swords, it takes more time to forge a hunter weapon from ore materials.

The time given by the craftsman uncle is four days, after four days he will be able to get the brand new weapon that he has always dreamed of.

Naturally, the time waiting for new weapons cannot be wasted.

Changing the type of weapon is not as simple as just changing the weapon. Even though Gordon has a high compatibility with the great sword, he still has too many new things to learn.

The correct posture of wielding a big sword, the connection of moves, how to quickly draw a sword, how to receive a sword, how to use a big sword to block defense, how to roll and dodge while holding a sword

Fortunately, instructor Ernest also used a big sword for a period of time when he was young, and he can directly teach these relatively basic knowledge.

If Gordon had chosen dual knives, guns and other things before, then he might have to go to Minagard City, or even East Doruma to find a good teacher.

Soaking in the training ground every day, the time passed quickly.

The big sword moves that pursue absolute power are not complicated, but the threshold for physical fitness and strength is very high. Under the premise that these two qualities are fully up to standard, Gordon has made rapid progress, and has basically mastered this heavy weapon in just a few days usage.

The next thing you need to do is to continuously accumulate experience and form your own fighting style.

According to the instructor, the "charged slash", which is the core move of the great sword, actually has further derivative moves, which are high-level skills called "strongly charged slash" and "true charged slash".

This is a special move that can only be mastered by outstanding great sword hunters who have continuously polished their skills, exercised their physique, and become strong to a certain extent.

In a short period of time, Gordon doesn't need to think about it at all, he can't touch it, and he can't control it.

What the instructor didn't expect was that Gordon didn't say anything on the surface, but he had already deeply engraved the names of these two tricks in his heart.

Becoming a high-ranking hunter is the basic condition for learning strong storage and true storage②? Just wait, that day won't be too long!

When Gordon was sweating profusely in the training ground, a petite figure jumped out of the truck and came to the entrance of Kokot Village.

It turned out to be an Elle cat.

It has snow-white fur, the darker part of its nose is golden yellow, and there is a golden oval pattern on its abdomen, which is very eye-catching and beautiful.

It looked around cautiously.

Obviously, this Elu is the first time to come to Kokot Village, and it may be the first time to come to a human-inhabited village.

It was carrying a huge package, with a dazed and uneasy expression on its back, as if the package was bulging and stuffed with some hard objects.

A bone "cat pick", which is commonly used by Ailu, hangs obliquely on the back, which adds a bit of bravery, or is it more cute?

Ai Lu looked around and walked into the village, wanting to ask someone for directions, but the workshop with the sound of blacksmithing attracted its attention immediately.

Due to lack of strength and other reasons, the smelting level of the Ailu family is relatively low. This kind of metal knocking sound is quite novel to it that has not had much contact with humans.

Walking lightly to a certain craftsman who was forging iron, Ai Lu asked weakly:

"Well, may I ask if this is Kokot Village Meow?"

"Huh?"

The muscular uncle craftsman looked down at the petite Ailu, the red light emitted by the hot steel on the iron felt illuminated the big face full of slender flesh and messy beard.

In Elle's eyes, the burly craftsman holding his hammer high in the flying sparks is simply like a demon from purgatory.

"I'm very sorry, meow! But please let me go, meow!"

Elu, whose hair was blown up like a hedgehog, bowed deeply, turned around and ran away on all fours.

"Huh? Is my face so scary?" The craftsman rubbed his big, unfriendly face in confusion, and continued to work.

Ps.

① This is a self-imposed, it is unrealistic for the protagonist to cross half a continent to go to the snow-capped mountains to mine.

②This is also a personal setting. The strong storage and true storage of the big sword were not available in the early days of the MH series, so they should not be released too early, just like the protagonist who was born in Kokot Village, I would not let him use a shield axe. Find a reasonably logical excuse.
