Chapter 377 Is this considered fire reconnaissance?
Gordon took Hayata and the others to select a place to set up a trap near the pass, while Julius and Nadia quietly entered the canyon.
The two of them used shrubs, trees, and rocks as cover and moved forward vigilantly.
At the same time, Julius and the others were constantly observing the pass.
There are nearly vertical cliffs on both sides, which are almost impossible to climb. The narrowest part of the pass is only five or six meters, and the wide part is only more than ten meters. A large monster like the Thunder Wolf Dragon can only pass alone.
This narrow terrain surprised Julius and the others.
Even if there is a large group of Thunder Wolf Dragons in the valley, facing this canyon pass, they can only pass through in a queue, which can delay a lot of time.
As long as Gordon is not stupid, he will definitely set traps in these narrow places, so that the Thunder Wolf Dragon will waste more time when trying to pass.
The entire canyon is funnel-shaped. After leaving the pass at the entrance of the canyon, the space behind it becomes more and more open.
A large rift valley covering an area of two to three square kilometers, surrounded by mountains, appeared in front of them.
Julius suddenly felt that the terrain of this deep valley was somewhat similar to Jieyun Village.
They are all surrounded by mountains and have narrow entrances.
“It’s a pity that the terrain inside is uneven and the height difference is too big. Otherwise, it would be a perfect place to build a village.”
Julius looked at the surrounding mountains and couldn't help but sigh: "These surrounding mountains are simply natural barriers."
Nadia looked around for a few times and said with a smile: "It's too troublesome for humans to go up and down the valley, but it's just right for monsters.
So, this is not so much a good place to build a village as it is a good place for monsters to nest. "
Facing Nadia's arrogant speech, Julius did not argue much, but simply said: "Get ready."
Immediately, the two of them took out a colorful half-length cloak from their respective bags and put it on themselves.
Nadia pulled up her hood and said with a smile: "To be honest, this thing developed by the master is really easy to use. It feels much more practical than those super cannons that can stuff a whole big wild boar king into it." ”
Julius still didn’t reply. The two of them had always gotten along like this, with one always teasing and the other always ignoring.
But to be honest, Julius himself also liked this special cloak that was just invented.
This thing may seem inconspicuous, but it can provide a lot of help to hunters, especially in concealing their whereabouts.
It is made of a very special fabric layered together, which can largely block the friction sound of armor and eliminate the sound of branches and leaves scratching.
After being dipped and painted with a special dye, it can almost blend in with the trees and grass. At the same time, this dye will also emit a smell similar to the sap of grass and trees, masking the hunter's own body odor.
It camouflages the hunter from hearing, vision and smell at the same time.
Even if there are no obstacles around you, as long as you pull up your hood and squat down, the monsters passing by will easily ignore you as a bush.
As if invisible.
So, Master Campbell, as the inventor, named this cloak "invisibility clothing".
I didn’t think it was too heavy, so I took it with me when I set out for Jieyun Village. It just came in handy now.
Carefully wrapping his long silver hair in a hood, Julius made a "silence" gesture.
Nadia shrugged and said nothing more.
The two men leaned slightly and walked silently among the increasingly dense vegetation around them, like two non-existent shadows, slowly exploring the depths of the rift valley.
Just walking forward for several hundred meters, Julius, who was responsible for opening the way, suddenly raised his fist and stopped.
Nadia looked at him. Julius made a few gestures. Nadia looked forward and immediately understood what he meant.
Further forward, the terrain suddenly becomes steeper. It is not impossible to get down, but it is likely that you will need to use your hands or even ropes to assist. It is almost impossible to continue to perform stealth operations.
Nadia thought for a while, and also communicated with Julius using gestures.
She wanted to find a place with a clear line of sight to conduct fire reconnaissance.
Julius thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
This is also one of their commonly used tactics. Once a situation like this where it is impossible to approach stealthily due to various reasons, fire reconnaissance is often the best choice.
Nadia glanced around and quickly found a good location.
From there, the view can be seen from a high position covering most of the rift valley, and there are also a few lush shrubs for hiding.
The two of them sneaked over under the cover of vegetation. Nadia got into the bushes and set up a light crossbow. Julius climbed to the crown of a nearby big tree to guard Nadia.
Nadia unfolded the scope, looked into the depths of the rift valley, and slowly began to search.
The terrain in the Rift Valley is complex and the vegetation is lush. It is not easy to find a suitable target, but Nadia has a lot of patience.
It took her more than ten minutes to finally locate a suitable target.
That's a dog dragon.
In the rift valley where the Thunder Wolf Dragon lives, there are actually carnivorous monsters such as the Dog Dragon, and Nadia is also a little surprised.
But on second thought, if the Thunder Wolf Dragon had used this rift as its lair for a short time, this situation would not be surprising.
She loaded a dyed bullet magazine into the crossbow·S, gently pulled the bolt mechanism to load it, and then put the dog dragon in the rift below into the scope, holding her breath and aiming carefully.
A few seconds later, she pulled the trigger.
With a soft sound like air leakage, the dye bomb flew out, passed through a space of hundreds of meters, and accurately hit the dog dragon.
The dye bomb exploded, the dye splashed, and the dog dragon, nicknamed the "Powder Velociraptor" by some hunters in the Old World, really turned pink.
The strong smell spreads.
“Ji Ga!” Dog Dragon let out a sharp scream.
The dye bomb does not have a hard warhead and does little damage, but it can accurately fire crossbow bullets from such a distance. Even if it is made of water, it will be very painful if it hits the body.
Nadia slowly retracted the half of the muzzle that was sticking out of the bushes, and waited quietly.
As the dogs and dragons barked and the smell of dye spread, several roars suddenly came from the depths of the originally peaceful and peaceful rift valley.
What followed was the sound of heavy but swift footsteps, and the sound of branches and leaves being blown away.
The dog dragon raised its head in panic, looked around, then lowered its body and started to run away.
But before it could run a few steps, a huge green beast rushed out from the woods, bit it in its mouth, tore it left and right a few times, and then threw it heavily to the ground.
The dog dragon had turned into a tattered corpse before it even had time to scream.
At this time, another Thunder Wolf Dragon ran towards them and appeared in the sight of Nadia and the two.
It came to the body of the dog dragon, sniffed and kissed it a few times, and touched noses with the thunder wolf dragon that killed the dog dragon before, as if to communicate feelings.
Then they went into the forest together and disappeared.
Nadia narrowed her eyes slightly, recalling some traces and details on the two Thunder Wolf Dragons, and said silently to herself:
“Currently confirmed, both ends.”
