Chapter 1163 Take Off!
After a while of chasing and beating, Hayata successfully snatched the photo and destroyed it. She was so angry that she punched Gordon a few more times before letting him go.
Those were really strong punches
But what she didn't realize was that after Gordon's repeated jokes, her anger about Gordon's single-handed fight with the Nergigante had almost dissipated.
It would take some time to upgrade and modify the projectile. The hunters left their projectiles and promised to pick them up tomorrow morning.
The next morning, before dawn, Hayata opened her eyes and sat up from the bed.
She was particularly interested in the flying claws described by the leader of the second group, which could easily fly onto monsters and start riding. She could even say that she couldn't wait.
Gordon tried to drag her back into the quilt clumsily, but she struggled to break free and jumped out of bed, ready to complete the daily required sword training first.
Gordon had no choice but to climb down from the bed, muttering, "It's rare to solve the 'Light of Life', and the restlessness of the ancient dragons has also subsided. The world is peaceful, just right."
Knowing what he was going to say, Hayata blushed, "There's no rush for one or two days, let's talk about it tonight!"
Gordon sighed unsatisfied, put on his shirt, walked to the weapon rack and picked up the heavy training sword.
So he had to find another way to vent his energy.
After more than an hour of daily training, Hayata specially practiced for a while and asked Gordon to take a shower first.
Gordon didn't say anything, and took a few minutes to take a quick shower.
After he came out with his hair wiped, Hayata walked in with confidence, and then Gordon followed in with his hands rubbed.
Who stipulated that you can't go into the bathroom after taking a shower?
When the two of them trotted all the way to the processing house where they agreed to meet, Anshil and the other two had been waiting for a while.
Facing the teasing eyes of the three people, Hayata kicked Gordon twice. Gordon, who looked refreshed, asked with a smile if everyone had eaten.
"What to eat."
Gail was about to make a dirty joke with a playful smile, but was glared back by Ansir.
If this guy opens his mouth, Gordon and Hayata may be fine, but Feng Ying will be shocked for a whole year.
Several people entered the processing room, and their catapults have been modified.
Compared with the original version, the current catapult structure is more complicated and heavier. The sharp claws of the flying claws are closed to form the crossbow arm of the catapult.
Is this the structure?
"The specific method of use is similar to the previous hook claw. This is the mechanism for launching the claw blade." The leader of the second phase group explained to them carefully.
"One thing you need to pay special attention to is that after replacing the new spring, the power of this catapult and the speed of rope reeling will be greatly improved. Don't get hurt."
Gordon looked at a human-shaped frame that looked very sturdy and wanted to try it on the spot, but was severely stopped by the old craftsman.
He once again emphasized the power and danger of the flying claw, drove the hunters to the training ground, and warned them that they must use it proficiently in the training ground before they can go to the field for practice.
As if he was worried, he also sent his little apprentice Isana to follow the hunters to the training ground.
On the one hand, it was to collect data and record opinions, and on the other hand, it was also for supervision.
The hunters who were repeatedly warned naturally would not mess around again, and obediently came to the training ground located in the back mountain of the base.
Now the number of hunters in the Xingchen base has increased several times compared with a few years ago, and the training ground has also been expanded in a targeted manner, and the scale has been greatly expanded.
There is naturally no shortage of diligent people among the elites who can be selected for the investigation team. Even in the morning, the training ground is also quite lively.
They were a little surprised to see Gordon and his friends coming.
Of course, the upper hunters would visit the training grounds on weekdays, but they rarely form teams like this. It would be better to say that hunters rarely train in groups.
The weapons are different, and the training items are completely different. What's the point of gathering together?
As the leader of the investigation team, Gordon behaved more seriously and steadily in front of the juniors, and Ansel gave people a feeling of being cold and difficult to approach.
Feng Ying greeted people along the way, and many people called her "Big Sister", which made her quite proud. She didn't realize that everyone's attitude was more like a mascot.
They came to the training ground, a relatively empty area, where a dilapidated wooden cart was parked, with large wooden barrels tied on it, piled up to five or six meters high.
This thing is used to simulate the body of a large monster, so that hunters can practice climbing and riding skills.
Few people usually use it.
After all, riding attacks are too dangerous, and require extremely high skills, terrain, timing, etc., and the benefits are not great. Not many people are willing to spend a lot of time and energy to master it.
Hayata was a rare exception. Ever since she learned how to mount an attack during her travels with the brigade, she has always loved it.
It's just that she didn't have the chance to use it most of the time.
"Let's get started! It's just like the previous hook, just aim and fire. Who's going to go first?" Isana asked, holding a writing board in one hand and one hand on her waist.
"I'll do it." Hayata, who had been impatient for a long time, walked to the front of the cart and raised her left hand on the catapult.
The flying claw that was originally folded and attached to the left arm was unfolded with a "clang".
The hunters watching made surprised sounds, and then they noticed that Gordon's catapult was different from the regular style.
Hayata, who was already good at using the catapult, hardly aimed and activated the launch mechanism. The flying claw shot out with the sound of the spring clanging.
The steel claw landed on the top of the pile of barrels on the wooden cart in the blink of an eye. Unlike the simple nailing of the hook lock, the flying claw was like the sharp claw of a flying dragon. The claw blade was retracted at the moment of hitting, and it was firmly buckled into it, fixed very firmly.
Gordon's eyes twitched.
Those barrels were not empty. In order to be firm, they were filled with sand and gravel. This thing could be buckled directly into it, and its power was much stronger than he had expected.
No wonder the leader of the second phase group repeatedly warned them to be careful. This thing would not only destroy the walls and equipment when fired indoors, but if it was accidentally shot at a person, it could completely kill the person.
Hayata also looked at the projector on her left arm with some surprise. Her experience was the most direct. She felt obvious recoil at the moment of firing.
If an ordinary person used this, it was possible to be shocked back and fall without any preparation.
"Next, try to reel in the rope. Remember to tighten your muscles. The pulling force is very strong and the speed is very fast. Be careful." Isana on the side said with squinting eyes.
Hayata nodded, tightened the muscles of his left arm, and activated the mechanism.
A huge pulling force that could almost dislocate a person came, and Hayata flew up with a "whoosh!".
If Isana hadn't reminded her in advance, her reaction speed would have been fast enough, and she would have stretched out her hands and feet in time to stabilize her body, and she would have almost been hit directly on the pile of large wooden barrels.
The exclamations of the onlookers rang out.
"Neh, it's quite amazing, the reeling speed is much faster than before!" Gale looked at the flying claws on his catapult and marveled.
Ansir nodded to himself, "This power and speed can indeed be used in actual combat."
Hayata turned around and said to Isana helplessly, "Don't reel the rope all the way in at once, leave two or three meters at the end, and reel it in slowly.
This way, when the hunter flies onto the monster's body, the grabbing action can be more free and flexible, and he won't be directly dragged and hung on the monster."
"Oh! That makes sense, I'll remember it~!"
Ps.
I might write a little about softened attacks, but it won't be like in the game, where you can't play without softening.
