Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

  Chapter 46 The Mystery of Taidao

  Gordon only noticed at this time that the huge and weird headdress on the king of the strange face tribe turned out to be a stove for a portable barbecue grill.

   What's even more amazing is that the flame on the hearth, which is regarded as the crown by the king of the strange face clan, can actually change with the change of its mood.

   At first, when the guy was chopping melons and chopping vegetables, there was only a small cluster of faint flames on the stove above his head, but when it fell into madness and rage, the stove above his head became a blazing flame.

  When the flames turned into erupting flames, the berserk aura displayed by the king of the odd-faced tribe made Gordon, who had faced the fire dragon, feel terrified, but he still had the urge to try.

  —I want to try to fight again, even if I was forced into a desperate situation just after a face-to-face meeting, I still want to try to fight it again.

  Clenching and relaxing his palms, he finally put down his right hand that was grasping the hilt of the Explosive Knife.

  Now I obviously don't have the strength and qualifications to fight against monsters of that level. I rashly intervene in the battle between the King of the Odd Face Clan and Senior Amos, simply to cause trouble for the latter.

   He patted his cheek hard to calm down his hot-blooded brain. He put the Explosive Knife behind his back, and Gordon lowered his arms to watch this very important battle for him more carefully.

  Before this, he thought that the difference between a high-ranking hunter and an ordinary hunter was nothing more than richer hunting experience, better equipped weapons, and better martial arts skills.

   In fact, it is true to say so, but the level of the so-called "martial skills is better" is far beyond the understanding of a two-star hunter.

   Just the steps, he felt completely incomprehensible.

  It is obviously a forest land with uneven vegetation, how can it be so smooth, frequent, and long-distance sliding?

  Is there a wheel under his feet?

  The blade is close to two meters long, which is supposed to be very difficult to guarantee stability. How can it be easy to change offense and defense during repeated turns and dodges, and instantly hit the key parts of the opponent accurately?

   Don't you need to lock the position with your eyes first?

  No one can answer the astonishment in Gordon's heart at this time. The battle between the king of the strange-faced clan and Amos has entered a fierce stage.

   "It's almost there." Amos whispered silently.

  The aggressive rhythm of the attack came to an abrupt end, and the Daoist retreated again without warning, keeping a distance from the king of the strange face clan.

  Tachi folds the hands holding the hilt tightly, the blade of the Taidao faces upwards, and the tip of the sword points forward. This is a special way of holding a sword called "Daxia Gou".

  A faint red light and shadow appeared on his body, and in the next moment, he was like an arrow leaving the string, with the tip of the knife as the tip, and "shot" forward suddenly.

  Gordon's pupils shrunk.

  He clearly felt that Amos moved faster.

  The hallucinatory light red light and shadow obviously cannot be summed up in a single "swordsmanship", it should be a special use of one's own power, or energy.

  The great sword also has a similar use, which is the "charged cut" as the core move of the great sword.

  Before the burst of the charged slash, a similar light will flash on the bodies of the great swordsmen, which is a sign that the accumulation and integration of power has reached the limit.

   "This is, Qi Blade Slash?"

  Gordon suddenly recalled that the instructor Ernest had taught him the use of Taidao.

  Different from the simple and rough power storage of the big sword, Taisaoshi are used to accumulating "sword power" (qi blade slot) through continuous attacks, and then burst out at the right time.

   This is Qi Blade Slash.

   It is said that when the Qi Blade Slash is released, it will not only increase the attack speed and attack strength of the swordsmen, but also "sharp" the swords. Gordon is not very clear about the meaning of "sharpening".

   Isn’t it just sharpening a knife in the literal sense?

  While Gordon was amazed again and again, Hayata, who was also paying attention to the battle here, also opened her eyes wide. It was the first time she saw her teacher Amos doing his best.

  Drawing a light red sword aura, Bai Yuanzheng's sword was faster than a sword. Under successive attacks, the King of the Qimian Clan, who was struggling left and right, was soon forced out of his loopholes.

   Immediately afterwards, Amos slashed and flew out with a roundabout attack with an astonishing attack range.

   Following the hit of this sword full of faith, Amos's whole aura suddenly rose to a higher level.

   Gordon, who didn't even dare to blink his eyes, immediately realized that this increase in momentum should be the "cutting edge" mentioned by the instructor!

  If it is said that Qi Ren Zhan is the release of the accumulated "sword power", then the so-called "blade opening" refers to the qualitative change and improvement of the "sword power" after Qi Ren Zhan successfully cuts in the battle.

   "So this is the meaning of Taidao?" Gordon said to himself.

   Compared with Gordon, who has seen some tricks, Hayatta, who is still a layman, has a lot of "superficial" ideas.

  She just thought it was so handsome! Mr. Amos's striding steps are so handsome, his sword dancing posture is so handsome, and even after a series of combos, the posture of receiving the sword is also so handsome!

  How can there be such a handsome weapon as a Taidao in this world!

  Unable to hear Gordon's soliloquy and disciple Hayata's screams and cheers, Amos quietly stared at the opponent in front of him.

   After exhausting his sword power (qi blade slot), he silently put Bai Yuannagi into the scabbard after finishing cutting, but he didn't seem to have the intention of pursuing the victory.

  The king of the strange-faced clan was panting heavily, the bone scepter in his hand had been cut off in half, and a huge wound across his chest and abdomen was added to his chest.

  If it wasn't for the last moment, it managed to lift the scepter to resist it, and it would not have been seriously injured when it was hit by the air blade whirling, but should have been cut in two.

  Right now, the thought of retreating could not help but appear in its heart, which has wounded many places.

   These human beings, to be precise, the strength of the human hunter in front of them far exceeded its expectations. If they continue to fight, they are likely to be killed here.

   "Kabacha"

  The flame above his head was slowly extinguished, and a series of turbid grunts full of warning came from under the strange mask of the king of strange faces.

  Its gaze was fixed on the hunter in front of it all the time, but its footsteps were slowly retreating.

  Seeing that the King of the Odd-faced Clan was about to retreat, Gordon hurried forward a few steps, trying to block his retreat path, but Amos suddenly stretched out a palm to signal him to stop.

   "Senior Amos?"

  Amos shook his head lightly, but did not speak.

  Gordon looked at the king of the odd-faced clan who was looking at him vigilantly, hesitated for a second, and finally stopped and stepped aside.

  The king of the strange-faced tribe took a deep look at Amos, turned around and burrowed into a bush, and disappeared from the sight of several people in the blink of an eye.

  Amos still did not relax his vigilance until he confirmed that the king of the strange face tribe had really gone away, then he breathed a sigh of relief, turned and returned to Hayata and the others.

   "Senior Amos, are you okay, are you injured?" Gordon walked over and asked with some concern.

  He guessed that the reason why Amos would let the king of the strange-faced tribe who was seriously injured to leave was because his own condition was not good.

   "I'm fine."

  Amos waved his hand, signaling Gordon and Hayata, who also looked worried, to rest assured.

   "Hurry up to collect materials, and confirm whether the goal of crusading 20 odd-faced tribes required by the task has been achieved. If it is completed, we will return to the camp."

   Ps. The idea of ​​the air blade groove is too much. It’s a game, so here’s an adaptation for reality
