Monster Hunter: Wild Pointer

Muxiang tilted her head slightly and thought for a moment, "This place connects the inner sea and the outer sea, and seafood is its specialty."

"Ohhh! Got it!"

Orlan took this opportunity to look the other person over in the least offensive way possible.

Judging from her face, this Archer lady should be about the same age as Senior Searle, perhaps a little younger, in her early twenties, less than twenty-five years old.

Her hair color is similar to that of Teacher Huali, a dark color almost jet black, which seems to be a characteristic of people from the Western Continent.

However, her facial features are quite three-dimensional, with a straight nose, slightly deep eye sockets, and light-colored pupils. These are common facial features of people in the north of the Old World. Perhaps she is a mixed-race?

Issues such as appearance, race, and nationality only crossed Orlan's mind for a moment before he stopped paying attention to them. Even though the other person's appearance was quite outstanding and she could be called a beauty, this was not what he cared about.

Aolan's gaze fell on Muxiang's female fire dragon armor.

The female fire dragon's armor was not brand new. There were many scratches on it, and there were also signs of repairs on the shoulder armor.

It is obvious that this female fire dragon was not just put on, but has been used for at least one or two years.

This is very telling.

For example, a three-star hunter can be promoted to four stars relatively easily by choosing a pleasing target such as the Blue Bird. After that, it is not too difficult to put together a set of four-star equipment by cooperating with the team.

Such a hunter can certainly be considered a four-star hunter, but his strength is at the bottom among the four-star hunters. Perhaps he is qualified as a piece of the puzzle in the team, but his own strength will always have some flaws.

The archer lady in front of him obviously did not belong to this category. According to Senior Francesca and President Safar, Miss Muxiang usually hunted alone. In addition, the degree of wear and tear of this female fire dragon armor meant that she should have been promoted to four stars for quite some time.

Perhaps when he just became an official hunter, the other party had already been promoted to four stars.

Such four-star hunters are far superior to the previous "cheating" four-star hunters in terms of technology, experience, and independent combat capabilities.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to bring two low-star hunters to entangle the sea dragon before they arrived.

Such shooters are naturally capable of becoming their companions.

As for the issues of tacit understanding and compatibility, it is difficult to say at the moment. After all, the previous battle did not last long and the intensity was not high.

But at least it is certain that he is not the kind of malignant shooter who fires indiscriminately without regard for the safety of the vanguard.

As expected of the shooter recommended by Senior Francesca, he is perfect in every aspect.

Muxiang noticed Aolan's observation, but she didn't care because she was also observing the two young hunters whom she had just met for less than two hours.

Their first impression of them was that they were quite capable and surprisingly young.

To be honest, before the two men took off their helmets, she thought they were at least thirty-year-old veterans. Could they actually be only twenty years old?

Soon, the hostess brought food and wine to their table.

Mu Xiang grabbed a glass of beer, took a sip, and then said, "Excuse me, who is the senior you two mentioned earlier?"

"Woo woo!" Muti stuffed a large piece of meat into his mouth and couldn't free his mouth for a while.

Aolan then took over and said, "Senior Francesca introduced us to you."

"Senior Francesca?" Mu Xiang was confused for a second, then a look of realization crossed her face. She smiled and replied, "Are you referring to Miss Fufu? So, you two are her friends?"

Muti swallowed hard and said, "Yes, she is my sister!"

Chapter 196: It was me who was optimized?

With a familiar person as a bridge, communication between the two sides becomes much more lively even if that person is not around.

"So, you two have been asked to hunt the Tailed Hammer Dragon, and you need to find an archer to accompany you?" After listening to their explanations, Muxiang gave a brief summary.

Aolan nodded. "That's right. After all, although the Tail Hammer Dragon's danger level is only four stars, its ecological niche is quite high and extremely difficult to kill. Therefore, the power of a shooter is necessary."

Mu Xiang smiled and agreed readily, "No problem. Even if Fu Fu's introduction is put aside, I won't refuse your help in repelling the sea dragon."

"Yeah!" Muti raised his hands happily.

Mu Xiang smiled as she looked at the girl whose figure could no longer be described as "tall". Although there was no similarity in body shape, facial features and other aspects, she saw some shadows of Fu Fu in Mu Ti's lively personality.

I've heard Fufu talk about her sister before. In her description, Muti was a somewhat shy and timid person. Was this a change brought about by her experience as a hunter?

Or.

Ao Lang didn't notice that Mu Xiang looked at him with some special meaning in her eyes. His mind was completely focused on preparing for the next mission.

"Oh, by the way, Senior Muxiang, what do you know about monsters like the Tail Hammer Dragon? Do you have any experience hunting them?"

"Tail Hammer Dragon? I've hunted it once, so I know a little about it." Muxiang nodded.

Upon hearing this, Orlan felt even more satisfied. Although the other party spoke modestly, actually fighting a monster was completely different from just reading about it in books and illustrations.

The nomadic tribe he came from once lived in harmony with the Tailhammer subspecies, but when it came to how to fight against it, he could only say that he would try his best to analyze it, but he could not give a plan directly with full confidence.

But Miss Muxiang was different. She had real hunting experience, and if she wanted, I could probably leave the tactical planning and even on-site command to her.

Ao Lang took the new dish from the waitress before Muti and placed it in front of Mu Xiang. "Ms. Mu Xiang, in your opinion, what preparations and tactics do we need to use for the three of us to hunt the Tail Hammer Dragon?"

He subconsciously uttered the honorific again. After all, he always respected capable people.

Mu Xiang pursed her lips and thought for a moment, "Based on my last experience of hunting the Tail Hammer Dragon, the responsibility of the attack may fall entirely on the shooter.

All it takes is one main forward to attract the target's attention, and the rest is left to the shooter in the team.

In fact, I think that one vanguard and three archers is the most efficient way to hunt Tailhammer Dragon."

Aolan: “?”

So Muti is the "main striker", you are the "striker in the team", and I can be optimized directly?

Noticing the strange look on Aolan's face, Muxiang realized the ambiguity in her words and quickly changed her words, "Of course, it's great to have swordsmen join the attack and share the pressure on the archers!

Caudalosaurus is a theropod species. The strategy of repeatedly attacking the legs to force it to fall when dealing with other theropods is also feasible when applied to Caudalosaurus.

Just considering the huge size of the Tailhammer Dragon and its extremely thick hind legs, the thickness of the stratum corneum and skin alone is more than ten centimeters, and underneath is even thicker fat.

It's not easy to get through these obstacles and actually damage the leg muscles and even bones of the Tailhammer Dragon, so the efficiency may not be satisfactory."

Muxiang's voice became lower and lower.

Orlan chuckled twice. The gist of what the former said was that it was a good thing to have swordsmen joining the attack, but it was not very useful.

Although he doesn't need to use his brain as much after partnering with Orlan, it doesn't mean that Muti is stupid.

On the contrary, her emotional intelligence was actually quite high. She immediately noticed Aolang's embarrassment, swallowed hard, and said, "Aolang knows a lot of weapons, not just the katana.

If the katana can't effectively damage the Tail Hammer Dragon's legs, how about a greatsword? Or a striking hammer?"

Mu Xiang's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Sir Aolan, can you use light weapons?"

Muti once again answered before Orlan could, "Of course! He's very good with both the one-handed sword and the double sword!"

"How about the Insect Gripper?" Mu Xiang asked, "Without a doubt, the Insect Gripper is the most suitable weapon to deal with the Tail Hammer Dragon.

The Bugstick User can jump onto the broad back of the Tailclump Dragon and easily and safely attack the hump, which is the Tailclump Dragon's weakness. If the user has a fire-attribute Bugstick, it will be even more suitable.

The high temperature can quickly burn away the layers of vegetation and moss on the back of the Tail Hammer Dragon, which is as solid as armor, melt the fat, and cause severe damage to the Tail Hammer Dragon!

Orlan's face darkened even further.

There are eleven melee weapons in total, and he dares to say that he is good at using half of them. He can't say that he is good at using the others, but he can get started. There are only two melee weapons that he has never used at all, one of which is the insect stick and the other is the hunting horn.

Muxiang shut up awkwardly. From Ao Lang's expression, she knew that this topic was not suitable to continue.

There was silence at the table for a few seconds, and Orlan let out a long sigh. In the two years since he became a hunter, this was the first time he encountered a situation where he was useless.

"Senior Muxiang, how about this? I plan to use my one-handed sword to assist in this battle.

I have a good sleeping-property one-handed sword. I can accumulate abnormal toxins and share the pressure on the vanguard. Then, I can use various props, set traps, and even help carry ammunition. Leave this kind of work to me."

"Well, if Lord Aolan is willing, of course you can!" Muxiang nodded quickly.

Fishball at the table tilted his head and asked, "Isn't this just a large-scale assist cat meow? You did all this, what did Seabuckthorn do meow?"

Aolan and Seabuckthorn exchanged a glance, then covered their faces and said, "You take charge of the attack. Doesn't your Fire Dragon series fire incendiary bombs? They should be more useful than me."

"This pair of meows?"

"You can do it." Orlan patted Seabuckthorn's shoulder and encouraged it.

"Ah, by the way, Boss, meow, I just had a new idea, meow." Seabuckthorn said, looking at Muxiang, "Miss Muxiang, when you flipped over the sea dragon's back earlier, were you launching explosive dragon bombs, meow?"

Mu Xiang rubbed its head. "Yes, that move is a light crossbow insect technique popular in Yanhuo Village, called Fan Spin Leap. Any questions?"

"I remember that Explosive Dragon Rounds are usually fired by placing a light crossbow against the ground, meow. But your light crossbow can actually fire Explosive Dragon Rounds. Even if the range isn't far, it must have been specially modified, meow?"

Can I see your weapon, meow?"

"Of course." Muxiang picked up the tightly packed launcher leaning against the table, removed the magazine, and confirmed that there were no remaining bullets in the crossbow chamber before handing the crossbow to Seabuckthorn.

Seabuckthorn pressed his face against the barrel and stared at it for a long time. "So this is the structure, meow. I think I understand. The detonating dragon shells you use should also be specially modified, meow?"

"Indeed, do you want to see it?" Muxiang smiled and took out a set of explosive dragon bullets from the ammunition belt on his waist and handed them to Seabuckthorn.

Seabuckthorn started tinkering again.

"That sounds about right, meow! Give us two days, and we can integrate this into the Fire Dragon series, meow!"

"That's amazing." As if coaxing a child, Muxiang reached out and rubbed Seabuckthorn's head.

Yuwan, who was beside Muti, snorted softly.

Muxiang quickly stretched out her other hand and rubbed Yuwan's head, "And this young lady too. The damage she inflicted on the sea dragon before was no less than that of hunters like me."

It is spring all year round in Yanhuo Village. The Elu who live there are all short-haired, while Seabuckthorn is a long-haired species that is very rare for her. Yuwan is a hybrid of Elu and Detel, and the hair between his chest and neck is also long.

She likes this kind of furry Elu the most!

It was difficult to get started when we first met out of politeness, but now she finally got the chance.

Yuwan impatiently pushed away Muxiang's palm. It rejected any intimate gestures from anyone other than Muti.

Sea buckthorn doesn't care. You touch me and I touch your crossbow, and no one suffers.

Seeing Muxiang stroking the sea buckthorn with both hands, becoming more and more excited, Aolang cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, Senior Muxiang, we came here by airship. When do you think it would be a good time to set off?"

Unconsciously, he also used some words that he didn't usually use.

"I'm sorry for being so rude." Muxiang withdrew her hand and returned to her previous serious and calm appearance.

"I need some time to prepare my weapons and ammunition. If you two are in a hurry, can we set off in the evening?"

"nature."

"Hey! Speak nicely!"

Chapter 197 The story of the past, the aftermath of Yanhuo

Miss Muxiang is a very efficient person. She said she would prepare for several hours and set off before dusk, but in fact she completed the preparations for the trip in less than an hour.

The armor was still the original female fire dragon armor, but the weapon had been changed from the previous strange dragon light crossbow to an extremely huge dark red light crossbow, which was almost as big as many heavy crossbows.

——The Fire Dragon Cannon, as its name suggests, is a first-class light crossbow made from materials of male fire dragons.

As a swordsman, Orlan didn't know much about the specific performance aspects, but the iconic huge drum magazine and six parallel gun barrels looked very intimidating, and the firepower must be very strong.

Noticing the gazes of Ao Lang and the others, Mu Xiang, who had always acted calm, couldn't help but show off.

"The male fire dragon is a five-star dangerous monster. I am not qualified to challenge it alone now. It took a lot of effort to gather the materials for this crossbow."

"Are you hunting in a team with other five-star hunters?" Muti asked curiously.

"Of course, I shamelessly collaborated with several seniors for several months and hunted fire dragons several times before finally creating this 'Fire Dragon Cannon'.

Based on the original model, I modified the barrel, greatly improving accuracy and sustained firepower. After all, the most commonly used ammunition for the Fire Dragon Cannon is the Flame Round, which can easily cause the barrel to overheat and stop firing under continuous rapid fire. The multi-barreled barrel eliminates this concern. The only drawback is that the crossbow becomes heavier, but for the greater firepower, this price is well worth it.

When talking about topics related to crossbows, Muxiang talked a lot more, and even her speaking speed increased significantly.

"With six gun barrels rotating and firing, the firing rate must be very high. Will the amount of ammunition consumed be very high?" Seabuckthorn got close to the fire dragon cannon and looked around, almost sticking his whole body to it.

Even though its fire dragon series has been updated for many generations, in terms of performance, there is still a big gap between it and this kind of serious fire dragon weapon.

"Indeed, that's why I carried enough ammunition." Muxiang moved aside, revealing the cart behind him.

That's right, she came here pulling a cart.

The cart was piled high with ammunition boxes. According to Muxiang, they were mainly firebombs. Generally speaking, a crossbow's base ammunition load was sixty, but the Fire Dragon Cannon could fire firebombs in a three-shot burst, consuming three times as much ammunition as other light crossbows. (There's no way around it.)

Therefore, she carried nine basic incendiary bombs with the idea of ​​tripling them again and again. As for other commonly used ammunition such as armor-piercing grenades, penetrating bullets, Lv3 normal bullets, she also brought some.

The ammunition boxes on the cart were piled up into a small mountain, which made Orlan feel that this guy was not going to hunt the Tail-hammer Dragon, but to burn the Tail-hammer Dragon to ashes.
