Chapter 135
Monster "Hunter", "hunter" is a verb.
Chapter 135 Monster "Hunter", "hunter" is a verb.
After Chen Baipiao's modifications and further processing by the studio staff, the variety and number of traps in Monster Hunter: World have been greatly increased.
This is a completely new system. In theory, if the traps are set up properly and all of them are used effectively, each trap can be triggered, and by taking advantage of the stun effect, you can easily and effortlessly take down your hunting target.
However, it will take a very long time.
Xie Yuan lacked patience and basically only used a few types of traps.
For example, the rockfall traps that are practically given away for free on the map.
Xie Yuan's plan was simple: he lured the Anjanath to the rockfall trap with the unpoisoned meat, but the last piece of meat was poisoned.
Next, before the poisonous flesh takes effect, use your body to lure it into stepping on the spike trap on the ground, and then activate the falling rock trap above your head.
However, this time he miscalculated.
This seemingly elderly Anjanath did not immediately eat the last bite of poisonous meat noodles when it came to the table.
His eyes revealed a sense of vigilance and suspicion.
Xie Yuan was completely dumbfounded, even watching from outside the screen.
"Holy crap? No; it's become sentient? How did it detect that there was something wrong with the meat? Could it be that the Anjanath has a keen sense of smell?"
So, can you smell it?
With the Anjanath about to leave, all the preparations were about to go to waste.
Xie Yuan gritted his teeth.
on!
These arrangements should not be wasted.
Xie Yuan charged out of stealth without hesitation, activated his crossbow, and a 1-point damage hit the head of the Barbarian Jaw.
"Come on, let's see just how smart your walnut-sized head really is!"
However, the boasting had barely finished when...
The Anjanath did launch an attack, but it didn't follow Xie Yuan's script.
It roared like a Tyrannosaurus Rex from a movie, clearly very unhappy with the stranger who had invaded its territory.
Then, with its strong legs pushing off the ground, it actually jumped up and flew over the trap!
"Holy crap?! Where's Newton?!" Xie Yuan, sweating profusely, hurriedly dodged. "You're so big, how can you jump that high and land without breaking a bone? You must have adamantium in your bones!"
I don't know if alloys exist.
It does drift.
Having narrowly dodged two attacks, Xie Yuan successfully circled around to the side of the Anjanath.
"It's my turn now!"
He had just swung his katana twice.
The elderly Anjanath moved its body and rammed into the car with the side of its shoulder.
Xie Yuan lost a lot of health in an instant, followed by a barrage of attacks.
Just half a minute later.
Xie Yuan looked at himself being pulled back to the camp by the kitten on a cart, feeling somewhat bewildered.
"No, it's just a dragon, and it knows Iron Mountain Lean?! What other special skills do you have?"
[I can't believe it, this is hilarious! Next up is the Lightning Nine-Strike Whip, right?]
[What's wrong with Tieshan Kao? I'm asking you what's wrong?]
[Little Blackie, huh? You've given yourself away.]
[Fun fact: Kun Ge has never denied that he is an Anjanathus]
"Damn it, let's do it again." Xie Yuan gritted his teeth. "This time I'll set up even more traps."
This time, Xie Yuan spent an extra ten minutes setting up a tripwire-triggered crossbow.
The damage is indeed very high, but setting it up is also quite troublesome.
"That doesn't make sense. Why cannons be used as traps instead of being operated by humans?" Xie Yuan muttered to himself as he continued to lure the Anjanath.
Mind your own business when it comes to anime and manga.
Mind your own business when it comes to anime and manga.
They resorted to the same old trick.
This time, Xie Yuan again abandoned the unpoisoned meat, trying to lure the Anjanath to the vicinity of the trap.
"Ha, you're just a brainless idiot with a head the size of a walnut. Let's see if you'll fall for it this time!!"
Full of hope.
The Anjanath arrived at the last piece of meat.
Then, its expression seemed to carry a hint of... mockery?
Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment.
"Brothers, is it just my imagination? Is it watching where I'm hiding?"
The Anjanath seemed to lower its head and sniff the tripwire that smelled of humans, and then... skillfully leaped up and headed straight for Xie Yuan!
Three minutes later.
Xie Yuan was confused as he watched the animation of being pulled back to camp by the cat cart for the second time.
The viewers in the live chat were practically bursting with laughter.
[Don't be surprised, this old dragon is quite experienced. Does he look like someone who could be easily fooled by your trap?]
[If you don't understand, just ask. Is the streamer's brain only the size of a sunflower seed? It seems even smaller than that of an Anjanath.]
[You're so stupid! Didn't we get some hints before that some herbs with strong scents could mask other smells? Why didn't you go and collect them? You could have just applied them to the tripwire.]
After being reminded by the comments, Xie Yuan suddenly realized what was going on.
"Yeah, guys! It's my fault for being an unprofessional trap master."
It took another seven minutes to prepare a new trap.
So far, the battle with Anjanath has lasted less than 10 minutes.
However, it took almost 40 minutes to set the traps before the hunt.
"This time, I don't believe you won't fall for it!!"
This time, Xie Yuan knew the other party had a keen sense of smell, so he even applied pungent herbs to his body to mask the odor.
They still use meat as bait.
Xie Yuan, filled with anticipation, stealthily hid himself.
This time, however, after seeing the meat on the ground, the Anjanath hesitated for only a moment before leaping onto a nearby high place with its thick thighs and disappearing from sight.
"Huh?" Xie Yuan was at a loss. "No, no? Dude, are you full? Or is there something wrong with the meat I prepared?"
He quickly deactivated his stealth and went up to check the meat trap.
No herbs or poison were applied.
Is that normal?
[No, if it were you, knowing there was a trap here, would you still rush over? Foolish!]
"Have you forgotten that Naughty Cat's black technology? A computer isn't just a computer; you have to treat it like an old dragon, though its physical functions are declining, it's still very experienced."
"But..." Xie Yuan was about to explain.
Unexpectedly, a chilling ambient sound appeared at that moment.
It's like the threatening growl of a predator before launching an attack in the animal kingdom.
As Xie Yuan turned around, the Anjanath's two sharp claws slammed down on him.
Two minutes later.
"No, you're just waiting for me to take the bait?"
Looking at the notification that the mission had failed, Xie Yuan suddenly understood the feelings of the smoker.
When you're feeling extremely depressed, you really want to do something to cheer yourself up.
The more Xie Yuan was tormented, the more excited the comments became.
[I can't believe it, I'm dying of laughter! Who's hunting whom?]
[No, this is called waiting for a rabbit to pounce on a pig.]
[Got it, this game is actually called Monster Hunter, "hunt" is a verb.]
[That's it! That's it! This is exactly the feeling!]
[Alright, you can place your bets now! How long will it take to beat Anjanath?]
[All-in for 10 hours]
Seeing the disdain shown towards him in the live chat, Xie Yuan, his blood boiling, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't forget, okay? I beat the Dancer with my raw skill back then, at a very low level. Don't underestimate my technique, you bastards!!"
