Monster Hunter: Wild Pointer

It is impossible to carry such a quantity of ammunition with you. Most of it can only be stored in the camp first, and then replenished after it is used up. It is often necessary to temporarily mix ammunition in the hunting ground.

Although it is very troublesome, this is the price that shooters must pay for mastering long-range attack capabilities and powerful destructive power.

"I can help carry some of them when the time comes." Muti looked behind Muxiang and said, "Speaking of which, Sister Muxiang, you are a hunter from Yanhuo Village, right? I saw you using Kinsects before.

But don’t hunters in Yanhuo Village generally train hounds?

Especially for archers, the hounds can temporarily act as vanguards and assist in combat, carry hunters to move quickly, and help carry large amounts of ammunition.

Would you consider getting a fang hound as a hunting partner?"

Olang had the same question in his mind, but he was not as straightforward as Muti. He just guessed that Muxiang must have some difficulties, such as the sacrifice of her former hunting partner, which she could not let go of, so he did not ask.

Sure enough, faced with Muti's question, Muxiang fell silent.

Seeing this, Ao Lang hurriedly tried to change the subject away from this minefield, but then he heard Mu Xiang say softly.

"Because I'm a cat person."

Aolan: “.”

What's going on with this guy?

Noticing Aolan's odd expression, Muxiang chuckled, "It was just a joke, I like both Elu and Fanghound very much.

It's just that I grew up under the care and attention of my teacher. There are many Elu employees who have worked in the teacher's shop for many years, and the teacher's husband is a master in training hounds.

They taught me that choosing a hunting partner is not something you can do casually; once you choose one, it's a lifelong companion, so you must be careful. Therefore, I have never made up my mind to find a hunting partner.

Well, this reason is much more normal than the previous "I am a cat person".

As Muti and Muxiang helped push and pull the cart, Ao Lang said, "Actually, I don't think it's necessary to be so cautious. Once you meet the right hunting partner, you can get along well with each other and respect each other.

This is probably what your teachers and their colleagues meant, rather than passively waiting for the so-called 'destined partner'."

"I agree too, meow!" said Seabuckthorn, who was helping push the cart beside Orlan. "Bonds are built, meow, they don't just fall from the sky, meow."

Yuwan jumped onto Muti's back and said, "Muti and I are different, meow. We were destined before we were born, meow!"

Looking at Elu surrounding the two of them, Muxiang's eyes revealed undisguised envy. Perhaps, she should be more proactive in finding her own bond.

The group dragged a cart loaded with ammunition boxes to the tavern in the assembly hall and greeted the guild leader, Ms. Safar.

Although Muxiang is not a registered hunter of the Giovadreo Guild, she has been based in this city for the past one or two years and has many acquaintances there, so it is only natural to inform them before traveling.

Ms. Safar didn't say anything extra, but just smiled and told Muxiang to be careful and wished her good luck in her military career.

In his heart, Olang silently compared this mature and elegant lady president with a certain poster girl president.

If the same scene happened at the Metabetat Gathering House, for example, Senior Jara came from Barubare and invited himself and Muti to go on a long trip to hunt some monsters in other places.

Noah would probably jump out from behind the counter, hug Muti's legs and cry, begging her to sign a promise not to switch guilds.

After muttering this inwardly, the three men and two cats boarded the airship back to Metabetat.

They started with their mutual acquaintance Fu Fu and talked about each other's past.

Muxiang was surprised at the identities of Muti's parents, and was also moved by Aolan's childhood experiences. Little by little, she opened up and told the two about her past.

Just as Orlan guessed, she was a mixed-race child. Her mother was a native of Yanhuo Village, and her father was a craftsman from a kingdom in the Old World.

More than 20 years ago, her parents died in a disaster called "A Hundred Dragons' Night Parade", and she became an orphan.

Now she has no memory of her biological parents, she only remembers that there are many children like her in Yanhuo Village.

Fortunately, everyone in the village is very friendly, and the village has invested a lot of resources to build an orphanage to raise and educate these young children.

Therefore, her childhood was not difficult. She made many friends while growing up and her life could be described as happy.

It is worth mentioning that her strange oral habits were also formed during this period.

The person who taught them cultural knowledge was a Dragon-man merchant named Yang Yan. He had a habit of speaking in this way. By the time the villagers realized what was happening, the children had been taught by him and were completely uneducated.

"When I was about ten years old, I was adopted by a teacher. I helped the teacher in the shop and learned from him the skills of hunting and using crossbows." When talking about this, Muxiang's face was filled with deep nostalgia.

"It feels a bit similar to what Oran experienced as a child." Muti nodded repeatedly.

"wait."

Sensing something was wrong, Orlan raised his hand and said, "I've heard you talk about your teacher's shop before, so what kind of business does your teacher run? How can he even teach you hunter skills?"

Ah, I see. Your teacher was once a hunter, and opened a shop after retiring?"

Orlan felt that he had guessed the truth.

"Not really." Muxiang shook her head gently. "Teacher has never been a hunter. He has always been the owner of a tea shop."

"So she taught you about ballistae?!"

"Teacher's heavy crossbow is really powerful, da da da da da."

"Is it normal for a tea shop owner to be good at using heavy crossbows?!"

"Everyone in the village is like this." Muxiang said as if it was a matter of course. "The teacher's husband is the village animal trainer, but he is also very good at using the shield axe."

“There’s a problem in your village.”

P.S. Ai Cao Dao Ji should not be considered a random CP, childhood sweethearts can be considered an official pairing (probably)

Chapter 198 There’s a cow!

“Pah, pah~!”

The chairman of the billboard girl association and the young billboard girl Lillian each set off a small firework, and small pieces of colored paper fell down, covering the three people including Orlan.

"Welcome to the Metabetat Hunters' Gathering!!" Miss Noah grabbed Muxiang's hand, who was still a little unresponsive, and shook it up and down vigorously.

This sentence may not mean anything to others, who may just think that the signboard lady of this place is a little too enthusiastic.

But anyone who knows a little bit about the situation knows that the "Welcome" spoken by this enthusiastic signboard lady does not mean that she will stay for a few days.

This guy is already planning how to tie up this shooter who looks quite capable here.

Facing Nuoya's enthusiasm, Mu Xiang, who was more reserved by nature, was a little unaccustomed to it. She forced a stiff smile and said, "Hello..."

"Hello, too! Hello, too!" the poster girl president replied without hesitation. "I hope you enjoy your stay in Metabetat. Do you need a room? Our hunter's lodge here is amazing!"

The little signboard girl Lillian handed over the price list with the prefix "super deluxe" in it at the right time.

Olangmuti looked at each other and felt that the scene was familiar.

Muxiang looked at the two of them with a pleading look. She had been to many cities, but this was the first time she had seen such an "aggressive" signboard girl.

The other party's overly enthusiastic attitude made her feel uneasy, and she even had the urge to turn around and run away immediately.

Aolan pushed away the poster girl who tried to get closer, and said to Muxiang apologetically, "I'm sorry, to be honest, this strange guy is the president of this guild.

She wasn't a suspicious person, she just wanted to recruit people, so she was extremely excited every time she saw a strange hunter.

Putting aside the fact that their sales method sounds like a scam, the facilities here are indeed first-class. Even the most ordinary fighter room has a separate toilet and bathroom. The living experience of the more advanced rooms is comparable to a vacation, and the price is not expensive.

We probably won't be heading out to the hunting grounds right away; we'll need to spend a day or two in the city purchasing some gear, overhauling our equipment, and preparing. I personally suggest staying here so we don't have to go out and find a hotel."

Muxiang looked at Muti again, and saw that the honest Muti also gave her a thumbs up and nodded, so she felt relieved.

"Then... please, Madam President, prepare a most ordinary room for me." Muxiang withdrew her hand, adjusted her mood, and handed over her hunter notes.

"Okay! No problem!"

As Ms. Noya, already a seasoned front desk lady, checked in, she said to Aolan and the others, "By the way, the mission application for hunting the Tail Hammer Dragon has been approved. Now we can go through the formalities for accepting the mission.

The mission deadline is not short. If you are worried about someone else taking the mission first, you can consider taking the mission first and then leaving in a couple of days when you are ready. It shouldn't be a big problem."

"Ah."

Although I don’t think anyone would take the initiative to accept a mission where the main target is the Tail Hammer Dragon and it also comes with an outrageous additional condition such as “bringing back the Tail Hammer intact”.

But just in case, I'd better answer it first.

Don't go to great lengths to get Miss Muxiang from Giovadreo to help you, only to find out later that the mission has been taken away by some stupid hunter. That's not something you can just get away with with a simple "sorry".

"Please help us with the formalities directly. I will pay the contract fee."

"Okay."

Soon, the brand new task document was handed to Orlan.

Hunting Quest: Destroyer of Beautiful Landscapes (★★★★)

Mission content: Hunt a Tail Hammer Dragon

Bonus goal: Keep the Tailhammer Dragon's tailhammer intact without destroying it.

Mission location: Southern area of ​​Metabe Wet Forest

Mission time: 30 days

Reward: 6500z; 3000z

Possible monsters: Dog dragon, giant wild boar, giant bee, giant bird

The village elder said: That was a stray male Tailhammer Dragon. It seemed that it had lost the battle for a mate and had become very aggressive. Not long ago, it attacked one of our strongholds, destroying and eating the walls and buildings. If we hadn't taken refuge in time, there might have been casualties. Please help us get rid of that guy!

Additional conditions: The client, the boss of the workshop: The brand-new model of Tail Hammer Dragon is under hot development, but we have encountered some bottlenecks. If you can help us get a complete Tail Hammer Dragon tail hammer as a reference, we would be very grateful.

Looking at the two columns for additional objectives and rewards, Orlan asked curiously, "Is this one mission, or two? How is the reward calculated?"

"It's a quest," Miss Noya replied patiently, "There are a lot of two- and three-star monsters, so situations like this don't happen often.

The more powerful the monster, the rarer its number.

Most monsters of four, five, or even higher danger levels dominate an area. In order not to damage the local ecology, the guild will not issue hunting permits at will.

For example, this time, the workshop owner wanted to get a complete tail of the Tailhammer Dragon to see how it goes. Unless the population of the Tailhammer Dragon is really overpopulated, he would not allow a special hunting mission to be issued.

Therefore, starting from four stars, similar situations with "extra targets" will occur more frequently.

Take this mission as an example. As long as you successfully hunt the Tail Hammer Dragon, the primary objective of the mission will be completed, and the reward of 6500z will be settled and counted towards the mission completion number.

As for the part that leaves the tail hammer intact, it is up to you to decide whether to complete it or not. If you can complete it, an additional reward of 3000 will be credited to your account, but it will not be counted as an extra mission. Do you understand?"

"Got it!" Muti summarized simply, "So-called extra objectives are just for the sake of convenience, right? There's extra rewards for completing them, and no penalties for not completing them!"

"That's right! Muti is so smart!" Noah praised loudly, which made Muti feel a little embarrassed.

Aolan raised his hand and asked, "What if we didn't hunt the Tailhammer Dragon, but managed to cut off its tail and bring it back? Can we settle the 3000 z reward?"

Noah put his hands on his hips and said, "No, not to mention how ridiculous it is to try to cut off the tail of a living Tail Hammer Dragon.

The Guild will not approve of this kind of sneaky and cunning solution. Failure to complete the mission will be considered a mission failure, with liquidated damages deducted and no compensation given!"

"Alright." Aolan spread his hands. "I just asked casually."

After saying that, he ignored the angry look of the poster girl president and handed the task document to Muti and Muxiang for them to confirm.

After confirming that everything was correct, Orlan paid the contract fee and completed the task registration.

Then he tore the task document he had taken from Miss Noah into two along the dotted line on it, and handed the duplicate voucher to Muxiang, which was the participant's certificate.

"The preparation time is set to be two days. We will set off for the hunting grounds early the day after tomorrow. What do you think?"

"Okay."

"No problem for me."

After receiving affirmative responses from his two companions, Aolang announced the disbandment and asked everyone to prepare for their own preparations.

In fact, these two days are mainly reserved for sea buckthorn.

As swordsmen, he and Muti either just acquired their armor and weapons or had them maintained not long ago, so there wasn't much else they needed to prepare. Muxiang was a shooter, but she had already prepared all the necessary ammunition in advance.

Only Seabuckthorn needed to modify its Fire Dragon No. 6 to some extent in order to use it to launch explosive dragon bombs.

At the same time, it also needs to make more incendiary bombs and explosive dragon bombs to replace Orlan as another "attacker" in this hunting operation.

In the past, all these preparations were done by myself. After all, Orlan and Muti were pure swordsmen and lacked knowledge of machinery and ammunition blending.

Not to mention Yuwan, this guy can't do anything except jumping on monsters and fighting them desperately.

But this time, Muxiang actually offered to help.

Most shooters have the habit of mixing ammunition themselves and have mastered some mechanical skills so that they can deal with emergencies when weapons malfunction.
