Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Maka, who cheered up, stood up and jumped up from the ground.

The three Gordons looked at each other and smiled. This guy had obviously come out of the shadows.

Who can be called an experienced hunter has never experienced a disastrous defeat? If he fails to recover, it can only prove one thing.

——His ability only goes so far.

Gordon made a gesture for his companions to sit down, and the four of them sat on the spot, forming a circle.

"What did you mean by the spear stuck behind Behemoth's neck?" Gordon asked Maka first.

Maka gesticulated with her hands, "Literally speaking, when we were attacked before, we discovered that the giant beast... Oh, it should be called Behemoth now.

There is a black spear stuck in the back of Behemoth's neck near the back of his head.

It's not the heavy lance used by our hunters, it's, well, a bit like the sickle used by ordinary soldiers?

It's more than two meters long and has a relatively slender barrel. "

"You are not a hunter, but you have fought against such a monster?" Hayata felt a little incredible.

"I can't tell clearly." Maka rubbed her hair, "The gun was inserted quite deep, and the head of the gun was almost completely submerged."

"Remember the broken armor we found in the ruins?" Ancil said, "If Behemoth really comes from other worlds.

Perhaps there were excellent warriors fighting with it over there. "

"It's also possible." Gordon nodded and said to Maka: "Go on and tell us in detail what kind of monster Behemoth is and how you fought."

When talking about this topic, Maka's expression became obviously heavy.

"That monster is very big and very strong. How should I compare it? Its body structure is similar to that of a golden lion.

But the limbs and trunk are thicker, somewhat similar to a large toothed dragon species like Thunder Wolf Dragon.

The total length from head to tail is about forty meters, but the tail is very short. You know what that means. "

The corners of Gordon's eyes twitched fiercely, "A toothed beast-like creature that is forty meters in size and stronger than a golden lion?!"

Hayata and Anhir also looked in disbelief.

Whether they are flying dragons or rare and powerful ancient dragons, most of them have slender necks and tails, which are all included in their body length.

But the fang beast monsters such as the Golden Lion and the Peach Fur Beast King are different.

They have short necks, compact limbs, and no long tails.

This means that for the same length of head and tail, the ridge height, physique, and weight of the toothed beasts are much larger.

What is the concept of a 40-meter-level "big-toothed beast" (actually an ancient dragon species)?

Its weight will be far greater than that of the fifty-meter-level Dark Lantern Dragon, and its muscle strength will most likely be much stronger.

Just like the golden lion, which is only about ten meters long, it can easily crush the head of a male fire dragon, even if the latter is twice its length.

Leaving aside the Lingshan Dragon, there is no mention of existences outside the standard like the Molten Mountain Dragon.

Behemoth was probably the most physically powerful of all the monsters they had faced.

Even Gordon didn't dare to use his one-stop posture to directly receive its attack.

"In previous encounters, Oshula and I tested the meat quality of that monster. It didn't have a thick carapace or scales, but it had an extremely tough outer skin.

That's not the point. The most troublesome thing is its extremely hard muscles, which are like super heavy armor.

Whether it is a blade or a crossbow bullet, it will be stuck in the muscles, making it difficult to cause effective damage, and the meat quality is simply ridiculously poor.

The only two parts that can be called weak points, if they can be considered weak points, are the head and forearms.

Needless to say, the head is not covered by large muscles and has vital points such as eyes. A concentrated attack can always cause a certain amount of damage.

The forearm is actually also very hard.

But looking at that guy's body structure, most of the weight should be on the forearms. Continuous attacks on joints and the like should be effective, just like the golden lion.

You know what I mean? "

The three Gordons nodded in understanding.

In short, it's a pedicure that disrupts the monster's balance.

“If it’s ‘just’ the above, although it’s dangerous, it won’t push us into a desperate situation where we can’t even retreat.

The amazing size and strength, and the extraordinary physical strength are just the most basic parts for that guy.

What's really scary is other things." Even if she got rid of the shadow of fear, Maka would still feel scared at this time.

Gordon recalled the information that scholars extracted and compiled from the ruins, "So those thunders, hurricanes, explosions, and even the ability to summon meteorites, are all real?"

"Well, although it is incredible that these powerful abilities appear in the same creature, all of them are indeed real.

We have witnessed and experienced all attacks except explosions with our own eyes. It is simply like a monster made of several ancient dragons. "

Gordon frowned.

Compared with summoning meteorites, causing explosions and the like are just another 'sparse and ordinary' ability.

It seems that, as Alva said, the inscriptions and murals in the ruins are not myths, but documentary warnings.

"Tell me more about it." An Xil's expression was equally cautious.

"In terms of physical attacks, I won't go into details about pounces, bites, claws, and things like iron mountains, dragon chariots, etc. In short, the strength is astonishingly heavy, and Ted almost had a hard time holding a big shield. Can't bear it.

The ability to summon thunder is very similar to that of Qilin.

We fought it in a large closed cave at that time, so I don't think those thunders came from the sky.

It's more like injecting the energy of thunder and lightning into the ground, and then exploding towards the target.

"In this way, it does look a bit like it." Hayata nodded silently.

She and Gordon had faced Qilin when they were very young, and were deeply impressed by the attack that poured lightning into the ground and caused thunder in the sky.

"Hurricane is similar to steel dragon, it causes tornadoes to wreak havoc, the principle is unknown.

Before the tornado was fully formed, Babaka tried to use a flash bomb to interrupt it. It was effective, but it could easily anger it.

This monster has a very paranoid temperament. After Ted attracted its attention from the front, it kept staring at Ted and attacked fiercely. It was not until the flash bomb interrupted the attack that it turned its attention to us.

So the pressure on the forward will be very high, Gordon, you have to be careful. "

"Okay, I remember."

Maka paused for a few seconds, took a deep breath, and continued: "In the end, it was the kind of attack that directly caused all of us to lose the ability to fight.

We don’t know how it does it, it’s like ‘magic’ in literary and artistic works.

It was obviously a closed cave environment, but it summoned a dark cloud shining with red light, from which the meteorite fell.

First time, maybe warming up? The power of meteorites is relatively average. It is said that meteorites are more like falling rocks. A large meteorite with a diameter of two or three meters fell down, which shocked Ted.

He dodged in time and was not injured.

But later, when Behemoth was truly angered, a meteorite wrapped in dazzling flames crashed down, and the explosion and impact almost flattened the cave.

Ted put up a shield to defend himself, but it was useless. He and Urshula were blown away, and they immediately lost consciousness.

I had the best luck. I didn't have time to find other shelters, so I hid behind the meteorite that fell before. I escaped, but I was also seriously injured.

In the face of that kind of attack, no matter whether it is defense, jumping, or extending the distance, it is meaningless.

Perhaps, only the meteorite itself can withstand the impact of a falling meteorite. "
