Great Nobleman.

Chapter 266 Hunting
"Here we are, the forest ahead."

After hearing Andy's words, everyone looked forward to it.

Under Andy's command, Chocobo stopped quickly.

Then several people jumped off the chocobo and fell to the ground.

After this, Andy said:

"The Sphinx's magical beast breath is too strong, and it may scare away our prey, so we have to act on our own next."

"They're called sphinxes?" Brand asked curiously.

Andy responded with a smile:
"This is the name I took. They are Sphinx No. [-] to Sphinx No. [-]. They are the most advanced Warcraft mounts of the Cloud family!"

Hearing Andy's words, Finn quickly "tell the truth":
"Actually, it's because the Claude family doesn't have any other monster mounts, so they are the most advanced!"

Seeing this, Andy squinted his eyes, and said displeasedly, "What? Do you have a problem?"

Finn showed a foolish smile, then quickly shook his head and said:

"No, I have no problem! They are indeed very advanced Warcraft mounts!"

——If there is a problem at this time, I'm afraid I have to run back by myself afterwards!
The domestication of Warcraft is actually very troublesome.

Not to mention the picky food in daily life, they also have high requirements on living conditions.

If you can't meet their various requirements, don't even think about Warcraft obediently listening to you.

Therefore, compared to Warcraft, humans in the Farnese Continent generally prefer various creatures with the blood of Warcraft.

For example, war horses, with the blood of Warcraft, have far more strength and endurance than ordinary horses, and they are also very docile.

As for the direct domestication of Warcraft, that is the exclusive property of wealthy mages, businessmen, and noble lords.

After Andy made a few gestures to the chocobos, they walked away on the snow with leisurely steps.

After that, the group walked towards the forest in front of them.

This forest occupies a very large area. It is undoubtedly extremely difficult for ordinary people to find one or two specific monsters here.

However, Brand and his party have various means to help them find their target.

Andy, Brand, and Finn's eyes shimmered with magic from time to time as they moved forward.

Under the effect of the insight vision, the creatures with magic power in the body can be seen in a large range around.

Yersin wasn't idle either, he was most familiar with hunting.

So he led the way along the way.

Now the only one who is more leisurely is Catherine, who is walking beside Brand with a large shield on her back.

However, her role cannot be ignored.

After hunting the prey, she will take on the responsibility of cooking.

"There is a giant python-like monster ahead, and it will be noon, why don't we use it as a cushion first?"

Looking at the magical reaction in the distance in the vision, Finn made such a suggestion.

Along the way, they found a lot of wild beasts, but there were not many monsters, and most of the monsters they encountered were small enough to fit between their teeth.

Because it came out late, the sun has now gradually passed through the atrium.

And just meeting such a big guy, Finn is more inclined to solve the problem of lunch first.

Everyone also agrees.

So they lightened their steps and slowly approached the position of the giant python.

Soon, on a big tree in front of him, a giant python with ice blue body and thin white snow came into view.

Andy recognized its identity at a glance:
"This is an ice crystal python, judging by its thickness and length, it should be an adult.

It knows some ice-type bloodline spells, its physical strength is barely comparable to that of an intermediate knight, and its movements are more agile.

When fighting for a while, be careful not to be entangled by it, otherwise it may be more troublesome! "

At this time, Yersin suddenly said: "It has found us."

As the words fell, the ice crystal python in front suddenly moved.

The long python body is winding and circling on the branches, and a huge oval snake head stands vertically.

The slender bright blue snake eyes look down from a height, and the aura of magic power flickers in them.

Ice also began to spread along the branches.

At this time, Catherine suddenly stepped on the ground, and swept past with the fluctuation of life fighting spirit.

A magic force hidden under the ground that was approaching them was directly scattered.

The others were not idle either. With the light of magic power flickering slightly, the shields surrounded everyone.

And Yersin took out a spear from his magic pocket.

With a slight flash of golden battle energy, the spear in his hand was thrown out by him.

At this time, looking at the spear that was attacking at high speed, the magical aura in the ice crystal python's eyes became even more intense.

A spherical shield composed of translucent ice flowers suddenly appeared, wrapping its body.

It could be seen that it was trying to block the spear with its shield.

Unfortunately, the shield did not hinder the spear much.

After a light collision sound, the shield was pierced, and the spear continued to fly towards the ice crystal python.

The next moment, the spear pierced the ice crystal python's head.

After that, its body quickly went limp.

The huge python body fell from the tree, splashing a large snowflake on the snow.

At this point, the hunt is over.

"As expected of Yersin, the ice crystal python's skin and skull are astonishingly hard. I didn't expect that your attack would pierce them all with the shield so lightly."

Seeing the result of Yersin's throw, Finn made a sound of admiration.

As an official knight, he also noticed that Yersin's throw should be a knight's secret skill.

In addition to the amazing penetration, it should also have the effect of locking the target.

When the shield was pierced, the ice crystal python evaded for a moment, but the spear also changed its flying direction.

Needless to say, the rarity of this kind of knight secret skill with multiple effects.

Its learning difficulty is also extraordinary!

It can only be said that he really deserves to be the heir of Holland, the knight family.

Facing Finn's compliment, Yersin smiled and said:

"It's just an ice crystal python, you guys can definitely solve it easily.

And now I am two years older than you, if you reach my age, maybe you can kill it with just a few fingers. "

While Finn and Yersin were bragging to each other, Brand had already brought Catherine to the ice crystal python.

Looking at the huge body of the giant python in front of him.

Brand felt that lunch should be enough!

……

Fort Chesil, the three elders have finished their lunch.

At this time, they are chatting.

"The patrol team reported to me that a few little guys rode chocobos to go hunting outside."

"Speaking of which, recently, there have been occasional sightings of orcs in the wilds of the Northland.

Not only our people are trying to find ways to sneak behind the enemy to detect the enemy's movements, but the orcs are actually the same.

The Imperial Judiciary has dispatched a lot of people to the Northland to look for the orcs who sneaked in.

Not long ago, I gave them permission to search for orcs in the territory.

Andy and the others went hunting this time, wouldn't they just meet an orc? "

"Who knows, if they do meet, they might be very excited."

"The orc's target should be those large material warehouses, but the empire has sent heavy guards, not only the army, but also members of the imperial court mages.

If the orcs don't dispatch on a large scale, even if they know the location, they won't be able to do much. "
