Chapter 3 The blue star that guides the way!
"Phew... so tired..."
After completing a set of training moves about Tai Sword in his memory, Xie Wen, who was only sweating slightly, immediately inserted the Salted Fish Tai Sword in his hand on the ground and sat down quickly.
Although his physical fitness has been inexplicably strengthened after time traveling, the inertia developed by not exercising for many years is not easy to correct, so his body obviously does not feel tired, but Xie Wen just doesn't want to move now.
Of course, Xie Wen did not last long in this state of salted fish. After all, compared with his own life, he could still overcome the "fatigue" state, so after a short period of laziness, Xie Wen picked up the machine again. The salted fish sword inserted aside started training hard.
As he became more familiar with the body and weapons, Xie Wen also gradually achieved the smooth connection of moves that he inherited in his memory, but he also understood that this alone was not enough, not to mention that practice and actual combat cannot be confused, but as far as he Now this child's physical fitness, even if it is strengthened, cannot be compared with those of professional hunters.
Xie Wen made a rough estimate based on the memory in his mind. It would be difficult for him to fight a Green Bear right now. This is based on the premise that he won't be in a hurry in his first actual battle. If he gets a little nervous then, he might encounter him. A little monster like a wild boar would kill him.
Given the current situation, there would probably be no cat-cart that would take Xie Wen back to the camp before he was too late.
Thinking of this, Xie Wen practiced even harder, until he was exhausted and had no strength to swing the knife. Then Xie Wen lay down on the beach, breathing heavily.
"Huh...huh...Oh no...a little too much practice..."
Xie Wen, who had just been proud of his efforts for a while, suddenly realized that in this situation where he was not sure about the safety of his surroundings, he should not have completely exhausted his energy. Like, he has no ability to resist at all.
When he thought that he might die in such a funny way, Xie Wen shuddered hard, then he climbed up from the beach with his weak hands and feet, and moved towards the jungle with his salted fish sword. …
In comparison, he would rather be gored to death by a wild boar that rushed out of nowhere.
Wait, I still have a portable barbecue!
Xie Wen, who was halfway through the move, suddenly remembered the props in his extra-dimensional pocket. In the game, barbecue can increase the upper limit of physical strength. He didn't expect it to have the same effect as in the game, but it should be able to restore some physical strength. ?
Xie Wen took out a piece of portable barbecue from his pocket and looked around.
The size of the portable barbecue was not large. It was only about half the size of his palm. In terms of feel, it was not much different from ordinary barbecues that had been cooled. Xie Wen put it under his nose and smelled it...it was quite good. fragrant.
There was no smell of mold or rot, so Xie Wen stuffed the portable barbecue into his mouth.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s classified as a prop, or if Xie Wen’s optimized hunter physique itself has an extra bonus on eating speed. In short, it’s obviously a very chewy barbecue, but he destroyed it in three or two bites. It's clean, and it actually tastes pretty good.
"Damn it...the effect is so good?"
After eating a piece of portable barbecue, Xie Wen, whose limbs were originally weak, immediately became stiff. Although he has not fully recovered, he can at least move normally.
From this point of view, these props may be much more useful than I imagined. In addition...
"I'm getting more and more curious about what my situation is now..."
Xie Wen patted his stomach, which didn't feel full, and murmured.
After recovering part of his physical strength, Xie Wen did not continue to exercise. It would be better to wait until he found a safe station to carry out this kind of extreme training.
So Xie Wen dragged the fresh knife Bai Nagi to the edge of the jungle, found a stone to sit on, and then put the weapon within his reach just in case, and then peeled the weapon from his pocket The hunting knife used for collecting materials was taken out.
"It seems... nothing special."
After waving the primitive-style hunting knife in his hand twice, Xie Wen found nothing special, so he stuffed it back into his bag, and then took out the fishing rod.
As for this fishing rod, apart from being extremely tough, there doesn't seem to be anything special about it.
That's not bad. At least you don't have to worry about the rod breaking when fishing in the future. As for whether it will get cut off, I don't know yet.
Then, Xie Wen took out the infinite sharpening stone and took care of his weapon. However, since the fresh sword Bai Nagi itself had no wear and tear, there was no difference between after sharpening and before sharpening. .
After putting away the sharpening stone, Xie Wen hesitated for a moment between the barbecue grill and the hunter's manual, and finally chose to read what was written in the hunter's manual first.
After all, there is still some portable barbecue left in the bag, and with his cooking skills of "adding more water if there is too much flour, and adding noodles if there is too much water", it is better to leave the barbecue to my own chef cat.
The Hunter's Manual is not big, just a little bigger than the palm of Xie Wen's current child. It is similar to the small comic books he used to read. As for whether it is the standard 64 format, Xie Wen can't confirmed.
On the cover of the manual is a monster pattern with a very monster hunting style. Judging from the color and shape, it should be a male and female fire dragon, a pair of monster hunters.
Xie Wen opened the manual, and on the title page it was written in the style of Monster Hunter: "May the blue star that leads the way shine for you"...
Well, it's obviously a strange font that I don't recognize at all, but Xie Wen can understand its meaning.
"Blue Star..." Xie Wen curled his lips.
The players in the game are superficially called "White Wind of the New World" and "Blue Star Guiding the Way," but they are actually just coolies doing dirty work.
Moreover, in his current situation, he could not see the Blue Star, but the Death Omen Star above his head was shining brightly.
Turning over the title page, what appeared on the first page was a map, a map that was exactly the same style as the map in the game. Even like the map in the game, the map was still dynamic.
Because there had been speculation that he had entered the game and obtained a game character template, Xie Wen was not particularly surprised, but carefully observed the dynamic map.
Xie Wen didn't even need to get started. He could zoom in and out of the map just by controlling his mind.
It's just that a large area of the map is covered by dark fog. Only a small area in the lower left corner is displayed, and it is obvious that it is the landforms on the edge of the ocean, beach, and jungle. At the junction of the beach and the jungle, It is an arrow representing Xie Wen himself.
In addition, there is a light yellow cat head, which is moving in the fog of the black map. When Xie Wen focuses his attention on it, not only will the map of the nearby area be enlarged, but also the map of the cat head will be zoomed in. Sanji's name is displayed below.
"Oh... so humane?"
Then Xie Wen tried the limit size of this dynamic map, but found that it could not be reduced soon, and at the bottom of the map, a progress bar with only 0.7% exploration degree appeared.
So, does this mean that I need to run through the entire island to unlock a new map? Or is it the same as in the game, where you need to take down the monster leader entrenched in this area?
Xie Wen scratched his head subconsciously.
But no matter what the situation was, even without this map prompt, he still had to explore the entire island. After all, he wanted to find a human settlement as soon as possible.
After discovering that there was nothing new, Xie Wen turned to the next page. The back of the map was blank, while the new page was gray with a faint lock icon in the middle. Obviously, this The page cannot meet the unlocking conditions yet.
However, Xie Wen could vaguely see that behind the gray, there was a horizontal tree diagram. This icon was also very familiar to him - it was a very classic weapon list interface in Monster Hunter.
No, I obviously still have a sword in its final form, Shiragi, in my hand. Why is the weapon interface locked?
Xie Wen scratched his head in confusion...
Maybe I have to wait until I find the village and talk to the weapon forger before I can unlock it?
Without any clue, Xie Wen could only continue to speculate according to the game's ideas.
Then he continued to turn down a few more pages. The following pages were similar to the weapon interface, and the information was even sparser. Not only were they all locked, but Xie Wen couldn't see anything through the layer of gray, so it was completely useless. Knowing what these pages represent, there is no direction to unlock them.
So, the purpose of Fresh Sword Bai Nagi is to allow me to see the weapon interface in advance?
Xie Wen couldn't help but turned back to the front and found that the gray color of the weapon interface was indeed a little lighter...
Sure enough, we still need to find the village first?
Xie Wen closed the hunter's manual and didn't look disappointed. The dynamic map alone had already made a lot of money, so there was no need to worry about other things.
Because of the unexpected surprise brought by the hunter's manual, Xie Wen, who is not good at cooking, plans to try his portable barbecue grill.
He put his hand into his pocket and took it out. A barbecue grill that was almost half the height of Xie Wen was unscientifically taken out of the small pocket. Then he took out a piece of raw meat and put it on it.
The moment the raw meat was put on the rack, a flame automatically ignited under the barbecue, and a familiar music even vaguely sounded in Xie Wen's ears.
"Oh, I'll go!"
Just when Xie Wen was about to turn the barbecue grill with surprise on his face and have a quick barbecue buffet like in the game, Sanji's shrill cry suddenly came from the woods not far away——
"Stop it! Meat roasted like that has no soul, meow!!!"
