In the world of magic guns, hunting is a very dangerous thing.
Especially single-player actions are basically just looking for death. Because of the existence of mist, the field of vision is very limited, and the farther away you are, the harder it is to see clearly. In this case, hearing and smell are even more important. However, hearing and smell are obviously not human.
Advantages, beasts are better in this regard. Entering the wilderness and hunting without a large team will lead to death.
When Tang Shidao was traveling with them, he also noticed that there were a small number of orcs, orcs with animal heads and human bodies, in the team of hunter soldiers.
For example, there are rabbits and eagles, and very few cat-men and leopard-men.
I can tell.
In the world of magic guns, the number of these half-orcs is very small, but they are all reused by major cities. There is no need to guess their origins. They must be the descendants of travelers. Tang Shidao does not believe that there will be such a "magic-free world".
Orcs were born. Just imagine, travelers from the eagle race entered and left descendants, the bloodline would easily spread.
The human race also needs these good helpers, and even if they limit their expansion, some of them will be left behind.
Entering the hunting state, everyone was speechless.
Even if you need to speak, you usually use gestures instead. Tang Shidao has read the information booklet of kitchen workers and found that there are several dangers in sound in the wild. First, it is easy to be targeted by wild animals with strong hearing; second, it is easy to attract small poisonous wasps or bees.
Poisonous insects; 3. Easily scare away prey.
In this misty world, the voices of beasts and human voices are completely different.
"One more thing." Captain Tang Tong walked in the middle, occasionally teaching 'Mr. Long' softly: "The sound you make may be heard by other hunters. It's hard to tell whether other hunters are friends or foes, so try not to speak as much as possible.
."
"That's it." Tang Shidao also remembered it in his heart.
Not long after.
The leopard men responsible for the reconnaissance reported: "We found deer in front, but there are also a lot of snake dens around."
Tang Tong frowned upon hearing this.
This is a bad sign.
Hunting is a necessary means of supply, but no one wants to exchange lives for food. After all, the world of magic guns has weapons like magic guns, and the human race is not scum. From the perspective of intelligent life, exchanging lives for food is
Very stupid behavior.
"Mr. Long, what do you think?" Tang Tong decided without haste and asked again.
"On the surface, what the deer did is very smart. From a natural perspective, the main enemy of the deer is the wild wolves, not us. They deliberately stay next to the snake dens, but they are actually using the snakes to protect themselves. Because the wild deer do not
Be careful about the speed of big snakes. It is difficult for those big snakes to prey on them. On the contrary, if wild wolves want to ambush, they must risk being strangled by a group of snakes. Wild wolves cannot outrun a herd of deer and must lurk. If they hide, they may be strangled by big snakes.
"
"Is this the surface?" Tang Tong and everyone were surprised. Isn't this the truth?
"Yes, this is just the surface. I personally feel that the actions of the deer have other meanings. It feels like someone is directing them. Of course, it may not be a person, it may be something else. In short, the deer have a kind of 'herding'
'It feels like their actions are not very real."
"Is that so?" Tang Tong frowned, but did not order the hunt to begin.
at this time.
Vice-pilot Tang Yan said: "Mr. Long, let's not say whether your guess is right or wrong. Let's assume: you are right. Then, the problem comes. There is our patrol team in the sky, but no giant eagle or giant bat was found.
On the ground, we have scouts such as cats and leopard men, so it is impossible to miss the enemy's traces. The enemy can herd deer, they must not be little ones, there must be some kind of footprints on the ground."
"right."
"So, Mr. Long, where did the enemy come from?" Tang Yan and everyone were surprised. There was no trace. Where did the enemy come from?
"I'm not sure either. But if I were a monster herding deer and my body was big enough, I would choose a route that no one can see."
"There are no traces in the air or on the ground." Tang Yan repeated.
At this moment.
Tang Shidao stretched out his hand and pointed in one direction: the river.
"Swim here?" Tang Yan also frowned.
"No, I think I came here, walking in the river..." Tang Shidao said his thoughts before he could finish.
"Lake Troll." Tang Tong shouted in shock and intercepted.
at this time.
Quickly, all the hunter soldiers fired their magic guns and began to locate the river.
Is Mr. Long’s guess correct?
Let’s not mention it yet.
Deep down, everyone knows this is possible.
In an ordinary place, it is an ironclad fact that a correct intelligence can save a large army. Here, no one bets on the option of 'maybe not'. As long as there is a slight possibility, people will not let it go.
You only have one life, and no one wants to gamble.
"What is the Lake Troll?" Tang Shidao asked softly.
"A giant monster that can stand upright and crawl on all fours. It usually only stays in large lakes and swamps, and occasionally enters plains and forests. Lake trolls are very troublesome. They can run very fast on all fours and can wave when they stand upright.
Break wood, or throw stones. Moreover, there are a lot of lake trolls. Once a group is dispatched, the hunting team can basically only escape."
"What are the benefits and countermeasures?" Tang Shidao asked again.
"The heart of the Lake Troll may be demonized and can be turned into upgrade materials for some magic guns. To deal with them, you must first discover them and then let the iron airship's artillery bombard them. Hunters have a team to fight, but the sacrifice is huge.
. Unless you have no choice but to take a detour and stay away.”
"That's it..." Tang Shidao fell into deep thought.
Trolls are dangerous.
Their bodies are so huge that if they fall down, they could crush someone to death.
"Mr. Long, do you want to take risks?"
"I have a few questions to ask?" Tang Shidao nodded lightly.
"You are so bold, okay, ask."
"First of all, is the Lake Troll's eyesight good?"
"This...Iron Cat, tell me." Captain Tang Tong waved, and a cat scout came over.
"They have poor eyesight and can only recognize the shapes of life." Iron Cat answered with a cupped hand.
"Okay. How do they detect the enemy? If we hunt deer, do they detect us by sniffing the smell of blood in the air? Or when we are washing by the river, do they detect us by the blood in the river? Or, they hear the lamentation of the deer.
Found us?" Tang Shidao asked in detail.
Hearing this, everyone was a little stunned.
Is this guy really a newbie in hunting? He checks the enemy so carefully?
"The sound is the farthest, followed by the smell of blood." Iron Cat wanted to answer the question easily, but he didn't expect the other party to be so professional.
"Are you sure? This is related to our lives."
"Sure."
"Okay. Let me give you another example. For example: if we make some dummies, such as wooden people, branch people, and grass-woven people, can we deceive the Lake Troll's throwing blows? Moreover, if we use a beast blood bag to pour
By shooting them in the ears with explosive arrows, can they go berserk and kill each other by mistaking the target?" Tang Shidao asked again.
This time, Iron Cat thought for a long time.
There was sweat on my forehead.
Finally, he nodded seriously and added: "They are afraid of fire. Pouring some fire oil will make them go crazy more easily."
At this time, Tang Tong also spoke: "There is a kind of poisonous mushroom whose toxin is useful. It seems to be called the crazy sheep mushroom, right, Tang Yan?"
Next to him, Tang Yan nodded slightly.
After hearing this, everyone knew in their hearts what they were going to do.
Tang Shidao spoke again: "Is there any way to lure those big snakes out at the same time?"
Hearing this, all the hunter soldiers were completely stunned.
"Yes!" Tang Tong nodded heavily.
After half a day.
Wild deer carcass.
Python carcass.
The corpses of the lake trolls were piled all over the ground. The hunter soldiers hardly did anything, just watched the crazy lake trolls kill each other, and later joined a group of giant pythons. What the hunter soldiers did... shooting shock
There were chaotic deer herds, half-dead pythons and lake trolls. Not to mention dead people this time, there were not even injured people.
Everyone dispersed to harvest the spoils. At this time, everyone couldn't help but look at Mr. Long who was collecting the animal teeth.
Is this guy's first time hunting in a team?
Is this his first time in the world of magic guns?
He had never seen a lake troll before, or even heard of it. Today, with just a small plan, he easily captured a group of them? Is this guy a monster? Is he not only a genius with magic guns?
Or a hunting genius who survives in the wild?
Captain Tang Tong also watched the entire operation.
Mr. Long did not use the magic gun.
Only hand crossbow.
He shot a total of sixteen arrows, and the target of each arrow was the eyes, the eyes of the lake troll.
Sixteen arrows, none of them missed.
"Captain Tang, I discovered something."
"Say, Mr. Long."
"I found some nocturnal crocodiles running away in the river. They don't seem to be avoiding us. They seem to be afraid of the blood of the lake trolls."
"so?"
"We originally didn't know where they were hiding, but now we can 'test' it out. Moreover, it is possible to 'drive' them into some locations that are beneficial to us and concentrate them for encirclement and annihilation. Nocturnal crocodiles must have some shortcomings during the day, which is not good for them.
Hunt them yourself. Instead of waiting until night to guard against them, it’s better to surround them during the day.”
"..." Tang Tong was stunned. This guy was not lucky, he was really a hunting genius.
Others are afraid of wild beasts and beware of wild beasts.
He is different.
He only fears nature and is not afraid of giant beasts and herds. In his mind, he only cares about whether the method is right, not whether the strength is enough.
Another half day.
A large group of nocturnal crocodiles turned their stomachs, but the hunter soldiers still did not hurt anyone. Because everyone was stained with some lake troll blood, the nocturnal crocodiles had poor eyesight during the day, and mistakenly thought that everyone was a lake troll and did not dare to fight.
attack.
Without the giant python and nocturnal crocodile nearby, the only remaining opponents are wild wolves and wild deer, so hunting will be too easy.
The level of the wild wolf is that it can't even bite soldiers wearing light armor.
At night.
The hunter soldiers lit the fire and sprinkled some blood of lake trolls and nocturnal crocodiles. They were safe all night, and even the wild wolves did not dare to approach. It can be said that this was the first time in more than ten years of hunting for them.
It was such a smooth ride. In the past, I would have been awakened four or five times by explosions. I might even have been unable to stay and would have sent out a distress signal to have the iron airship arrive for support.
Late at night, watching some messages for help rising into the sky in the distance, like fireworks exploding, the first team was filled with pride.
With a "Hunting Genius" teammate, you can just win without risking anything.
Think back to before.
When Captain Tang asked everyone, the other teams were disgusted and unwilling to let Mr. Long join, but First Officer Tang Yan agreed. Now, see, this is the importance of choice. If you choose the right one, you can make a fortune just by messing around...
...The heart of the lake troll, the gallbladder of the python, the antlers of the wild deer, and the skin of the nocturnal crocodile... Oh, I can't think about it anymore, I will be so excited that I can't sleep.
This is only one day’s income.
"Everyone, please be gentle. The captain has an order. Yesterday, Mr. Long's upgrade to Level 2 must not be spread to outsiders. This is an order, do you understand?"
