Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 877: Valley of Sulfuric Acid

Geokluk Hainan area, volcanic island.

Not too far from the crater in the center of the island, there is a huge crack in the ground formed by geological activities.

The crack in the ground is more than 500 meters long and 60 to 70 meters wide. It is very deep. It may be more appropriate to call it a small canyon.

There are several springs at the bottom of the valley, as clear as blue glass. From time to time, high-temperature water spurts out from between the rocks, but not even a trace of vegetation can be seen.

The misty air is filled with a pungent sour smell, which comes from several sulfuric acid springs.

No birds, animals, fish or insects will come near this place. This is a forbidden place for life.

However, in recent days, there has been an additional guest here.

The alien dragon, with pungent grease flowing between its scales and its body covered in green and black, was sleeping at the bottom of the valley.

One of its front paws was resting in the sulfuric acid pool and it had been soaked for an unknown amount of time.

The sharp metal tools adhered to its claw arms by black oil were riddled with holes due to corrosion by the acid, and the armor-like black oil was melted away by the strong acid.

Even the astonishingly tough green-black dragon scales and skin beneath it were brittle and shattered under the long-term erosion of strong acid, revealing dark red muscles and white bones, bubbling in the acid pool.

Even torture such as skinning and burning pales in comparison to this.

"Is this kind of masochistic behavior an active pursuit of pain, or is there no pain at all, so you can't notice it? It's really hard to understand, the magical nature."

There was a guard post hidden on a hill some distance away from the canyon. They could not get too close, otherwise their respiratory tracts would even be burned by the acid mist diffused in the canyon.

Alva, covered in invisibility clothing, held a telescope in one hand and kept writing and drawing with the other.

The picture album in his hand was already filled with sketches of the strange ancient dragon named "Gigantosaurus".

"."

The other figure lying next to him was motionless, and even his breathing was soft and inaudible. If it hadn't been a hot day and it didn't stink, he would have suspected that it was a corpse.

"Miss Owl, what do you think?"

The dual-sword wielder from the dark night said nothing, didn't even turn his eyes, and completely ignored the young scrivener's words.

Alva is also used to it. He knows that this guy will not participate in these "topics unrelated to the mission" and only treats it as talking to himself to relieve his boredom.

"Xixissuosuo."

There was a subtle sound of blades of grass being moved from behind, and the owl that looked like a corpse just a second ago turned its head with a "swish".

It's bones and fire sickles.

"The guild's airship has arrived, meow, and it has brought new orders, meow." Bones handed a small roll of letter paper to the owl's hand.

The owl checked the mark, unfolded it and read it quickly, then nodded, "I understand, I'll leave the surveillance here to you."

Saying that, An Ye stood up quickly and dragged the confused scrivener team member up, "Let's go to the coast to help."

Alva was dragged so hard that he staggered, "Hey, don't pull me, don't pull me, let me put the album away first!"

"Shut up!" The owl glared at him coldly.

Alva could only lower his voice, "What exactly is the new order? Can you tell me?"

The owl led Alva a few hundred meters away, and after confirming that even if he spoke loudly, it would not affect the ancient dragon sleeping in the small canyon, he spoke quickly:

"The evacuation of East Doruma has been completed, and Battle Street is almost ready. The guild leaders have decided not to delay.

So a high-speed airship was sent over, and highly potent explosives were sent to prepare to blow up the Styracosaurus directly.

Scholars have analyzed that the injured and awakened Styracosaurus would be looking for food everywhere, and a large amount of gunpowder and sulfur would be burning in East Doruma, which should be able to attract it. "

"Oh, that's it." Alva nodded in understanding, "So why are we going to the beach to help?"

"Transporting explosives."

".All right."

The two of them hurried along and arrived at the beach. They saw Pig Chop directing the crew on the airship to carefully carry down the dangerous explosives.

And some other stuff.

"What are these?" Looking at the square sealed leather packages, Alva's curiosity arose, "It shouldn't be gunpowder.

As for conventional gunpowder, this quantity shouldn’t mean much to the ancient dragon species? "

Pig Chop jumped down from the side of the ship and said excitedly: "Dragon-slaying carbon cat! The six high-density dragon-slaying carbon cats are all high-quality cats prepared by Master Campbell himself!

It would be possible to directly blow up the giant Styracosaurus to death!

The leads have been installed, which is enough for us to set up the dragon-killing carbon and find a place to hide. "

"In other words, we just need to place all these explosives next to Styracosaurus and then run away, right?" Alva asked.

"That's right, meow!"

"How are we going to enter that canyon filled with sulfuric acid mist?" Owl asked with a frown: "If we walk in directly, we may not be able to hold on until the explosives are planted."

"A guild has prepared special equipment for us, meow!" Zhupa pointed at another pile of things next to the high-density dragon-slaying carbon, ".Why is the set missing?"

"Because the cute doll is already wearing it, meow!" Xianglan jumped out.

It is equipped with a full-coverage heavy cat armor and looks like a pink bear.

"This is the armored chinchilla armor, and the armored dragon suit?" Owl recognized the cat armor on Xianglan at a glance, as well as the armor piled aside.

As a member of the Dark Night, she knows almost all types of hunter armor and weapons, and is well aware of the effects, characteristics, and weaknesses of the armor.

As for the reason, it’s okay not to mention it.

Owl, seeing the armored dragon suit, nodded with relief, "Since there is this set of equipment, then there will be no problem."

The armor made of armored dragon materials is not satisfactory in terms of defensive performance, and the bloated shape has a greater impact on activities, so it is not an excellent set of armor.

That is, the materials are easy to obtain, so only a small number of one-star and two-star hunters will build and use it.

However, the application range of this set of equipment is not limited to hunter hunting.

The excellent sealing and large internal space make the armored dragon suit shine in many industries.

For example, underwater exploration, desert mineral exploration, underground excavation, etc., are welcomed and loved by many workers. (Official setting)

The armored dragon suit, plus the respirator filled with special oxygen algae, so that they can move freely even in the death zone filled with acid mist.

Of course, the armored dragon suit will also be corroded by acid mist, and the amount of oxygen that can be stored in the respirator is also limited.

Fortunately, they don’t need to stay in the canyon for a long time, and this set of equipment is completely sufficient.

"The guild prepared two sets of armor and four sets of cat armor for us, but I think we still need to leave some people outside the canyon to be vigilant of the giant halberd dragon.

Dragon-killing carbon is very dangerous, so we need to be very careful when transporting it. Considering the flexibility of movement, one person can only carry two, and Elu can carry one.

Since there are six sets of high-density dragon-killing carbon, Alva and Miss Owl may need to enter the canyon. To be honest, it will be more dangerous."

As he said, Zhucho looked at Alva, "Of course, there is another plan. Alva will be on guard outside, and Miss Owl will stay with the four of us."

"No! I want to go!"

Alva threw away his school bag and rushed to his own set of hard armored dragon suit. "It's a chance to get close to the ancient dragon species! Not to mention the danger, I will go even if I die here!"
