Chapter 266 Hunting
“We are here, the forest in front of us.”
After hearing Andy’s words, everyone looked expectant.
Under Andy's instruction, the chocobo quickly stopped.
Then several people jumped off the chocobo and landed on the ground.
After that, Andy said:
"The Sphinx's magical beast aura is too strong and may scare away our prey, so we have to act on our own next."
"They're called sphinxes?" Brand asked curiously.
Andy responded with a smile:
"These are the names I chose. They are Sphinx No. 1 to Sphinx No. 5. They are the oldest members of the Claude family. Advanced Warcraft mount! ”
Hearing Andy's words, Finn quickly "told the truth":
"Actually, it's because the Claude family has no other Warcraft mounts, so they are the most advanced ones!"
Seeing this, Andy squinted his eyes and said displeased: "What? You have a problem?"
Finn showed a silly smile, then quickly shook his head and said:
"No, I don't No problem! They are indeed very advanced Warcraft mounts!”
——If there is a problem at this time, I am afraid that I will have to run back by myself later!
Taming Warcraft is actually very troublesome.
Not to mention their picky eating habits, they also have very high requirements for living conditions.
If you can't meet their various requirements, don't expect Warcraft to listen to you.
So compared to Warcraft, humans on the Farnes Continent generally prefer various creatures with the blood of Warcraft.
For example, war horses, with the blood of Warcraft, have far more strength and endurance than ordinary horses, and they are also very docile.
As for directly taming Warcraft, that is the exclusive preserve of wealthy mages, businessmen, and noble lords.
After Andy gave a few gestures to several chocobos, they walked away on the snow with leisurely steps.
After that, the group walked towards the forest in front of them.
This forest covers an extremely vast area. It would undoubtedly be extremely difficult for ordinary people to find one or two specific monsters here,
However, Brand and his team have various means to help them find their goals.
As they move forward, Andy, Brand and Finn's eyes will flash with magical light from time to time.
Under the influence of the insight field of vision, creatures containing magic power in their bodies can be seen in a wide range of surroundings.
Yersen has not been idle either. Hunting is something he is most familiar with.
So he led the way along the way.
The only one who is relatively leisurely now is Catherine, who is walking beside Brand with a large shield on her back.
However, her role cannot be ignored.
After catching the prey, she will be responsible for cooking it.
"There is a giant python-like monster in front of us. It's almost noon. How about we use it to cushion our stomachs first?"
Looking at the magic reaction in the distance within the insight field of view. , Finn suggested.
Along the way, they found a lot of wild beasts, but not many magical beasts, and most of the magical beasts they encountered were small and not big enough for them to fit between their teeth.
Because it came out late, the sun has gradually passed through the atrium now.
And since he happened to meet such a big guy, Finn was more inclined to solve the lunch problem first.
Everyone agrees.
So they stepped lightly and slowly approached the giant python.
Soon, on a big tree ahead, a giant python covered in ice blue and covered with a thin layer of white snow came into view.
Andy recognized its identity at a glance:
“This is an ice crystal python. Judging from its thickness and length, it must be an adult.
It knows some ice systems. The bloodline spell, the physical strength is barely equal to that of an intermediate knight, and the movement is more agile.
Be careful not to be entangled by it during the battle, otherwise it may be more troublesome!"
At this time, Yersin suddenly said: "It has discovered us."
As these words fell, the ice crystal python in front suddenly made a move.
The long python body is winding and circling on the branches, and a huge oval snake head stands upright.
The slender bright blue snake eyes look down from a high place, with magical light flashing in them. Ice also began to spread along the branches.
At this time, Catherine suddenly stepped on the ground, and the fluctuations of life fighting energy swept across her.
A magic power hidden under the ground and approaching them was directly shaken away.
Others were not idle either. As the magic light flickered gently, shields enveloped everyone.
And Yersen took out a spear from his magic pocket.
As the golden fighting spirit flashed slightly, the spear in his hand was thrown out.
At this time, looking at the spear that was coming quickly, the magic aura in the ice crystal python's eyes became even more intense.
A spherical shield composed of translucent ice flowers suddenly appeared and wrapped its body.
It can be seen that it is trying to block the spear with its shield.
Unfortunately, the shield did not cause much hindrance to the spear.
After a gentle collision, the shield was pierced, and the spear continued to fly towards the ice crystal python.
The next moment, the spear pierced the ice crystal python's head.
After this, its body quickly collapsed.
The huge python fell from the tree, splashing a large amount of snowflakes on the snow.
This is the end of the hunt.
"As expected of Yersin, the ice crystal python's skin and skull are incredibly hard. I didn't expect your attack to pierce them all together with the shield so lightly."
< br>
Looking at the result of Yersin's throw, Finn made a sound of admiration.
As an official knight, he also saw that Yersin's throw should be a secret skill of knights.
In addition to the amazing penetrating power, it should also have the function of locking targets.
When the shield was pierced, the ice crystal python evaded for a moment, but the spear also changed its flight direction.
It goes without saying that a knight’s secret skill with multiple effects like this is rare.
The difficulty of learning is also extraordinary!
I can only say that he is truly worthy of being the heir to the knight family of Holander.
Faced with Finn's compliment, Yersen smiled and said:
"It's just an ice crystal python, you guys can definitely deal with it easily.
And now I am I'm two years older than you. If you wait until you are my age, you might be able to kill it just by moving your fingers."
While Finn and Yersen were bragging to each other, Brand had already led Catherine to the ice crystal python.
Looking at the huge body of the giant python in front of me.
Brand thinks that lunch should be enough!
……
Fort Chesil, the three gentlemen have finished their lunch.
At this time, they were chatting.
“The patrol reported to me that a few little guys went hunting outside on chocobos.”
“Speaking of which, in fact, in recent times, there have been occasional hunting in the wilds of the Northland. There will be traces of the orcs.
Not only are our people trying to sneak behind enemy lines to explore the enemy's movements, but the orcs are also doing the same.
The Imperial Judgment Department has sent many people to the north to look for them. The orcs sneaking in.
Not long ago, I gave them permission to explore the territory for traces of orcs.
Andy and the others will meet an orc this time when they go hunting, right? "
"Who knows, if they really meet, they might be very excited. "
"The target of the orcs should be those large material warehouses, but the empire has sent heavy troops to guard them. Not only the army, but also members of the imperial court mage group are guarding there.
If the orcs don't dispatch in large numbers, even if they know their location, nothing can be done. ”
