MTL - Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter-Chapter 73 Breeding season is here...

  Chapter 73 The breeding season is here.

  For the first time, Gordon felt that the hunting ground was so fun?

  The two big men ate hazel all day long, went fishing and hunting, and explored and collected all kinds of messy things. More than half a week passed in the blink of an eye.

  There are still two days left before the mission deadline, if you don’t hurry up and get down to business, if you fail to pay enough mission items on time, it will be counted as a mission failure and the contract fee will be deducted.

  So, even if both of them still feel that they haven't had enough fun, they must set off to hunt shield crabs and collect the best crab roe.

   "Brother Ted, do you know which area around here has more frequent shield crab activities?"

  After a few days of crazy play, Gordon and this big bald man who had just met for less than half a month, changed from ordinary friends at the beginning to good brothers now, and they became much closer in terms of address.

  Finally getting serious and ready to hunt, Ted put on a full-face helmet at this time, and his voice seemed a little muffled. He nodded and replied:

"Walking south along the coast for a while, there is a river that flows into the sea. Only under the special stimulation of this confluence area of ​​sea water and fresh water, female shield crabs will lay eggs, and male crabs will also be there to conduct research on crab eggs. Fertilize.

   It should not be the breeding season of shield crabs yet, but some impatient guys will run to occupy a position early, and we can go there to guard. "

  Gordon gave him a look of astonishment.

   It is not surprising that Ted knows where there are many shield crabs. He has been a hunter for more than ten years, and the ecological distribution of the hunting grounds in front of his house is always clear.

But if you want to analyze from a biological point of view, why there are so many shield crabs in that place is not something that ordinary hunters can answer. Most hunters are simple-minded guys with well-developed limbs. Ted is a typical example of that. .

   Judging by the appearance of this guy, he doesn't look like someone who likes to read books?

   Noticing Gordon's gaze, Ted didn't hide it, but said proudly: "This is what Dad told us!"

   Oh, Mr. Miles, that's all right.

The old man belonged to the kind of person who would go to the library to pass the time in his spare time. If he changed into a bachelor's robe and a pair of monocle mirrors, with his calm and preachy temperament, it would not be a violation of him to mix into the scrivener team. and.

   "But the problem is, if there are daimyo shield crabs around here, they will probably go there too. It doesn't matter to me, but Gordon, are you okay?"

  If you are an unfamiliar person, you may feel that Ted's words are contemptuous, but Gordon knows that this guy is only worried about himself.

   "No problem! The daimyo shield crab is a monster with a three-star rating. Even if you fight alone, it may be a bit bragging to say that you will win, but I am still sure of protecting myself."

  Gordon seemed very confident, and Ted also knew that this young man was not the kind of person who was blindly optimistic about his own strength, so he no longer worried.

  But out of caution, he still introduced information about this large crustacean monster to Gordon.

   "The daimyo shield crab and the shield crab actually belong to the same species, just like the Peach Hair Beastmaster and the Peach Hair Beast, but as crustaceans, they have low IQ and are not social species, so there is no such thing as a group or a leader.

As they grow older, the size of shield crabs will continue to increase. At the same time, they will continue to replace the bone shells on their backs. It is called 'Daimyo Shield Crab'. "

   "The skull of the flying dragon?!" Gordon confirmed with some surprise.

   "Well, it's usually the skull of a ceratopsian. You know, the skull of a ceratopsian is huge enough to protect the entire back of a daimyo shield crab.

  The sharp unicorn will also become the weapon of the daimyo shield crab. Be careful not to stand directly behind them. It is very dangerous to step back suddenly and use the dragon horn as a spear to attack. "

   "Okay, I understand." Gordon took down this information carefully.

   "The dragon skull on the back of the daimyo shield crab and their claws are very hard, and it is impossible to break through with the sharpness of your weapon.

  At the same time, they also have crab claw swings, foam jets and other offensive methods. If we encounter that daimyo shield crab, you just need to remember to stand on its side and continue attacking its legs.

  I'll catch its attention head-on, don't worry. "

   "Stand sideways, continue to attack the legs, right? I've made a note of that." Gordon repeated the key, nodding.

Ted suddenly patted Gordon on the back hard, and said with a smile: "Ha, you don't have to be so nervous, you can stay away when the time comes, with my uncle here, a famous shield crab can't lift it What a storm."

  Gordon smiled and punched back, "I won't hide behind and be a coward. Speaking of Brother Ted, why do you say that we have a high chance of encountering a famous shield crab?"

   "Nine out of ten."

   Ted answered very casually, but Gordon exclaimed in shock: "Isn't that almost certain to happen?!"

  Ted smiled, "As I said before, it is a breeding ground for shield crabs. Of course the famous shield crabs will go there. Well, you will gradually find out when you have more hunting experience.

   The probability of encountering large monsters in the collection and crusade missions is not low, but most of the time you just need to run and finish the job, and you don’t need to be tough.

   On the contrary, in the process of hunting large monsters, the probability of other large monsters entering will be smaller. After all, large monsters have their own territories. "

  Gordon realized that it was not uncommon for him to encounter the big wild boar king, the male and female fire dragon, and the king of the strange face tribe.

  The reason why everyone in the assembly hall was surprised was mainly because the danger level of these monsters was a bit high, and Gordon, a two-star hunter, was able to come back safe and sound.

etc!

  Gordon suddenly realized a problem-why when Ted talked about the famous shield crab, he was teaching him how to fight.

   Shouldn't we retreat under normal circumstances?

   Didn't keep the question in his heart, Gordon asked directly: "Brother Ted, the moving speed of the famous shield crab should not be fast, why do we have to fight it?"

  Ted paused, he touched the back of his head, and said a little embarrassedly: "You found out? Hehe, actually, I want to try the crab roe of the famous shield crab.

  If the crab roe of the shield crab is the best, isn’t the famous shield crab the super best? "

   Gordon: "."

  If Senior Amos was here, he would have to teach this guy a good lesson and make him realize the fragility of the ecological chain.

   "If so, is that a male daimyo shield crab?" Gordon couldn't help asking again.

  Ted smiled mysteriously, but Gordon couldn't see it wearing a helmet.

"Actually, there is another purpose, or a surprise? It's too early to tell you now, and I will tell you after the Daming Shield Crab is really dropped, so that if you don't meet it, you don't think pity."

  Gordon was a little depressed when he heard the words.

  You said that, so I care more, okay?
