Chapter 35: Overwhelming Luck
Having the previous two hunting experiences, Boqi has already established enough trust in Malu.
What's more, he still carries the "helper" that Malu gave him.
Pochi's eyes glanced at the young flame lizard hanging on his waist, which was tirelessly tearing at his hunting clothes.
Pochi adjusted his breathing and assumed a defensive posture, feeling the increase in strength.
Not long after, the first prey appeared, a cheetah.
When he first saw the cheetah, Pochi's pupils shrank suddenly, but when he saw clearly that the markings on the other person's body were dark brown instead of gold, his coat was sandy yellow, and his body was smaller than his. I felt relieved again.
The gray-spotted cheetah came, not the golden-spotted cheetah that made countless hunters angry after hearing it.
Although there is only one word difference, the combat effectiveness of the two is far different.
The gray-spotted cheetah is stronger than the two-headed jackal. A gray-spotted cheetah can probably compete with two two-headed jackals. And if the golden-spotted cheetah appears here now, it can already be advanced. Three persons were pronounced dead.
But this is only a second-level hunting area after all, and the probability of hitting a golden-spotted cheetah is about the same as the giant screen being hit by a meteorite.
Poch realized that he cared too much about that name, and he quickly turned his attention back to the opponent in front of him.
Although the gray-spotted cheetah is not as good as the golden-spotted cheetah, it is not that easy to deal with. He must cheer up.
The gray-spotted cheetah, attracted by the smell of internal organs, also discovered the human opposite early.
So it quickened its pace and started to trot, but it did not pounce on him immediately, but circled around Pochi.
Seeing a look of confusion on Ma Lu's face, Mai Mai explained in a low voice.
“It uses this method to find weaknesses in its prey. If you are stunned by its movements or distracted, even for just a moment, you will be captured and exploited by it.”
As soon as Mai Mai finished speaking, the gray-spotted cheetah launched an attack.
When Pochi turned his head to change his field of vision, he flexed his limbs and balled up, then kicked the ground violently, ejecting himself out, turning into an afterimage, and rushed towards the target!
Its limbs are slender and powerful, full of movement when running.
Just like Mai Mai said, the gray-spotted cheetah chose the right time to attack, and the route happened to be in Pochi's blind spot.
However, in this desert, the positions of the hunter and the prey may be reversed at any time.
The flaw just now was originally sold by Boqi deliberately, with the purpose of luring the gray-spotted cheetah to take the bait.
His movements are not as fast as the gray-spotted cheetah. Even if he has the upper hand, once the gray-spotted cheetah senses the danger and turns to a wandering strategy, the battle may reach a stalemate.
If other beasts appear at this time, his situation will become very passive.
Therefore, Boqi decided to fight quickly early on. As the gray-spotted cheetah launched a pounce, the mechanical spear in his hand also moved.
However, in order to paralyze the gray-spotted cheetah, Pochi turned his back to it at this time, and before he had time to turn the spearhead, Pochi used the mechanical spear as a stick.
Swiping backwards, it hit the gray-spotted cheetah on its back.
Maimai let out a soft cry, because that was not the gray-spotted cheetah's vital point, and Boqi used the gun body instead of the gun head, so its lethality was limited. On the contrary, although the gray-spotted cheetah received this blow, it closed the distance with Pochi and was able to open its mouth and bite almost immediately.
Seeing this, Mai Mai couldn't help but grab the backpack behind him.
However, what she was worried about did not appear. The gray-spotted cheetah seemed to have been lightly rubbed, but it lay on the ground and could not stand up for a long time. It just kept wailing.
Pochi's attack just now exploded with a full 1043% of power under the influence of [Charged Power], directly breaking the gray-spotted cheetah's spine.
This battle happened quickly and ended quickly. It only took one round to decide the winner.
Then Pochi turned around and inserted the mechanical spear into the gray-spotted cheetah's head, ending its pain and giving Malu a new chance to choose one of three.
The gray-spotted cheetah and the two-headed jackal are both 2-star ingredients, and it stands to reason that they would also give blue blessings, but this time Malu's character exploded.
Although it did not trigger the upgrade effect of the Heartbeat Lottery, it did happen that there is a small chance that 2-star ingredients will produce purple blessings.
The bottom one is the purple blessing, and it’s a familiar face.
[Bleeding does not stop: The whole team attacks with a 33% chance of triggering the bleeding state, and the target’s bleeding volume increases by 100% when in the bleeding state]
This blessing comes at the right time, in conjunction with [Water Can conduct electricity], making Pochi's water shield come in handy again.
While they were going down to take care of the gray-spotted cheetah, Malu and Boqi quickly exchanged their strategies for the next battle.
On the other side, Mai Mai, who was handling the prey, was secretly frightened. She had discovered something abnormal on the back of the gray-spotted cheetah. The place where the mechanical spear had been rubbed was now bloody and bloody, and the bones underneath were deformed. .
What kind of terrifying power does it take to do this?
Maimai raised his head and looked at Malu and Boqi aside, only to find that they seemed to be accustomed to this astonishing scene.
Moreover, Mai Mai recalled the previous battle, and it was obvious that Pochi was fully confident before taking action.
But how is this possible? !
But before Mai Mai could ask her doubts, the three of them welcomed a new guest, and this time the prey came from the sky.
——Big Vulture with Long Hook and Wattle
This kind of vulture is nearly 2m long. There are red flesh folds on both sides of the neck. The beak is sharp and pointed, like a long hook. A pair of sharp claws can easily slice open the abdomen of prey.
And they also have the ability to fly, making them the type of opponent that hunters least like to face.
The large vultures with long hooks and wattles have a very diverse diet and will eat almost anything, but their favorite is carrion. They obviously also come for the internal organs of the giant clawed lord.
Although the traveler's bracelet gave a 2-star rating for the ingredients, it still could not dispel Malu's doubts about whether these ingredients were edible.
Perhaps Lao Wang has some means to eliminate the bacteria and pathogens carried by them, but it is likely that some special ingredients or cooking methods will be needed.
It feels like it will be more troublesome to deal with, but now is not the time to consider such things. Even if you don't plan to take them back to make snacks, you have to deal with these large vultures with long hooks and wattles first.
Otherwise, if the bait is taken away by them, the bait fishing will have to end early. Moreover, if you leave it alone, it will be quite dangerous if they suddenly pounce down in the subsequent battle and make a sudden attack or something. .
Mai Mai began to worry about Pochi again. She didn't know how Pochi planned to deal with these enemies flying in the air.
