Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 911 From the Bottom of the Sea

The three Gordons bent their legs to lower their center of gravity, put their knees against the side of the boat to use force, and pulled the fishing rod backward with all their strength.

Several fishing rods were bent at alarming arcs, making people worry that they would break in the next second.

Fortunately, the toughness of these fishing rods provided by Aziz is equally astonishing. I don’t know what kind of monster material they are made of. The bending angle is almost more than 90 degrees, but they are still strong and show no signs of breaking.

"It's not a fucking fish!" Gordon growled, his muscles bulging all over his body. As the strongest one among the three, he seemed to be the main force in pulling the rod.

Gale, who had gotten a blanket and was lying on the front deck to bask in the sun, heard the noise and ran over.

"What are you doing?" She looked curiously at the three people who were trying their best to pull the fishing rod and fight against the underwater creatures.

"Fishing...!" Gordon said through gritted teeth.

"Gail, miss! Give me a hand!" Aziz, who also had bulging veins, said with difficulty.

"Interesting? Come on, come on!" Gale helped grab the fishing rod in Az's hand.

"Are you tight?" Az asked.

"Hurry up!"

Az suddenly let go of his hand, and Gale didn't react and was almost dragged directly into the sea.

"Why did you let go?!" Gale screamed and cursed as he struggled to pull the fishing rod.

The fishing rods in the hands of Gordon and the others were also two points heavier. Even though Gale was working hard, as a light crossbow user, there was still a gap in strength between her and Az, who was used to using long spears.

"Hold on, go down and take a look!"

As he spoke, Aziz put on the helmet hanging on his waist, pulled down the visor and buckled the waterproof buckle, then grabbed the spear beside him and jumped into the sea.

Soon, the movement from the fishing rod became more intense.

It's not the tug-of-war like before, but a struggle that keeps changing directions.

Gale struggled to control the fishing rod, and did not forget to turn around and shout loudly, asking the people on the deck to come over and help.

Soon, two crew members who were clearing the deck and a passing support staff joined in to help pull the rod.

After a few minutes, or maybe ten minutes, the force on the fishing rod suddenly began to weaken. At the same time, a large area of ​​red blood appeared under the sea.

After a while, Aziz, holding a spear, poked his head out from under the sea.

He lifted up his waterproof visor, grinned his white teeth and shouted to the deck, "Thanks to you guys for holding it, the hunting and fishing was successful! It's such a big fish!"

You just wanted to say that the hunt was successful, right? !

One crew member threw down a rope ladder so that Aziz could climb onto the side of the ship, while another crew member ran to turn the pulley boom on the foredeck and called for more help.

After a lot of effort, a group of people finally dragged the twitching big guy out of the water and hung it on the edge of the deck.

That should be a ichthyosaur, or a relative of the ichthyosaur that lives in the ocean? The bright lantern ball is quite conspicuous even in the sun.

The overall body shape of this big fish, or sea dragon monster, is narrower and longer than that of the lantern fish dragon, with the overall length being about seven or eight meters.

Aziz and the crew were holding several sharp and narrow fish-cutting knives, preparing to disembowel this guy first and cut out the fish liver, which is a delicacy but is highly perishable.

More people gathered on the deck.

Some biologists have already taken out pen and paper and are sketching quickly.

They do not think that this fish, this sea dragon monster, should be roughly classified as a lantern fish dragon. After all, one is a pelagic species, and the other is a freshwater species that inhabits submerged forests and swampy rivers.

In terms of kinship, it might not be as close as the Fire Dragon and the Horned Dragon.

However, no one noticed that a large amount of blood with a strong fishy smell flowed along the deck and side of the ship into the sea.

Under the sea, an electric light that was completely different from before became brighter and brighter.

"Hang it higher!"

An experienced old sailor waved his arms and directed the other crew members, "It must be completely hoisted, otherwise it will lie limp and the complete fish liver cannot be cut out!"

Just as the crew moved the ladder and were ready to take the knife, there was a roar from the side of the ship as a huge thing came out of the water.

"Boom!"

The scales on its body were pale, and its back was covered with blue thorns. The giant sea beast, which was more than twenty meters long, jumped onto the deck and bit the sea dragon monster hanging there, tearing off large chunks of flesh.

The heavy body and sharp claws crushed it, tearing apart large sections of the deck, and the dragon-attacking ship shook violently.

The people gathered on the deck suddenly exploded.

"It's the White Sea Dragon!" Aziz was the first to recognize the identity of the monster that jumped onto the deck.

As the only hunter present who was fully armed and had weapons in hand, he immediately set up his spear and large shield, and watched carefully after the White Sea Dragon was tearing apart the carcass of the big fish.

"Non-combatants evacuate immediately!" Gordon yelled, "Gale! Go control the bed crossbow on the deck! Aziz entangles it first. If it doesn't actively destroy the ship, don't anger it!"

After saying that, he and Hayata ran towards the cabin.

Although they wear armor on a daily basis, they do not carry weapons.

I hope Aziz can hold that guy back.

Just as he was thinking this, another figure rushed over quickly, it was Mr. Mecca.

He took off the bug stick behind him and put it under his arm. At the same time, he turned his head and said to Gordon and the others: "Don't forget to bring the float and respirator. You may need underwater combat."

Gordon responded and rushed into the cabin without stopping.

Hearing the commotion on the deck, the hunter quickly ran out of the cabin with his weapon in hand.

Ted, who smelled of alcohol, looked at the white sea dragon on the deck, rubbed his eyes, and after confirming that it was not an illusion, he raised his gun and shield and rushed forward with a roar.

Maka and Oshura followed closely.

Seeing that the hunters had provided support, Mecca shouted, "Attack! Drive it back to the sea in one breath. Let it run wild on the deck and it will damage the ship!"

There were ten upper hunters on the ship. If it was on land, the sea dragon subspecies would definitely not make any waves, although it was strong.

But this was in the middle of the ocean.

If the ship was destroyed by it, the people on their ship could not swim to the New World.

Gordon and Hayata rushed into the room, took their weapons, and grabbed the floating blocks and respirators hanging on the wall of the room as life-saving equipment.

Quickly fixed the floating blocks on the armor.

This was thanks to the shark hunting trip in Moga Village that year, which allowed them to come into contact with naval battles that most hunters would not get involved in.

In theory, the fixing and arrangement of the floating blocks are very particular. The buoyancy should be just enough for the hunter to float in the water, and the layout should be reasonable, not affecting the movement too much.

It is also necessary to test and adjust in advance.

But the situation is urgent now, and I can't care too much. According to the method taught by Az in my memory, it is considered completed after it is roughly hung.

"Let's go!"

The two people who quickly completed the preparations ran to the deck.

At this time, most of the hunters have gathered on the deck.

Under the suppressive attack of the upper hunters and several heavy crossbows, the white sea dragon roared.

While releasing a large amount of electric current, it kept retreating.

Ted relied on the heavy armor and roared to the white sea dragon's face, and pulled the trigger while stabbing with the shield.

"Dragon bombardment!"

"Boom boom--!"

The explosion and shock wave blasted the white sea dragon backward.

Evelyn, who was used to joining the battle with her one-handed sword as a support hand, was very smart. She noticed the huge gong near the rudder used to scare monsters, and immediately rushed over and picked up the hammer to hit it.

"Bang!"

The metal sound that did not exist in nature scared the white sea dragon. It roared and retreated to the edge of the deck and jumped into the sea.

Many people on the deck breathed a sigh of relief.

Mecca and Az were still nervous, even more nervous than before.

Az didn't say a word, fastened his visor, and chased into the sea.

Mecca reminded everyone loudly, "The sea dragon is very vengeful and will not let us go easily unless it is seriously injured and frightened!

Everyone, get ready for battle! Protecting the ship is the top priority!"

Gordon and Hayata, who were already ready for a naval battle, also came to the deck at this time. The two looked at each other and jumped into the sea.
