The Last Of Us Walkthrough Part 57 – Chapter 9: Lakeside Resort (The Hunt)

Ellie is out hunting for some food for both her and Joel who is still recovering after that skewering he took at the end of the last chapter. Ellie will spot a deer after she takes down a rabbit. Take a little time to open her backpack and go over the various artifacts sitting in it. She has a lot to say with them so take your time.

With the artifacts reviewed then start on forward toward the boulder in front of you. You will see the deer take off to the left. Follow it and keep to the left. Climb up the ledge there and follow the rock wall. Keep to the left and then look for where you can get a shot at the deer. You can either do this from a distance or closer up. Remember to aim for the neck or head for a quick kill. The first arrow will wound it so take off after the deer as it runs off up the slope to the right. Go straight on up after it. Look for the blood splatter that shows where it has been and chase off after it.

Once you get past the boulder drop into a crouch and start over to the right between the tree and the boulder. Get onto the rock that is nearby to get a clear view of the deer again. If you are not certain of your shot then move in closer but keep a good bit of distance between it and you. Once again, after you shoot, the deer will run off up the slope to the left. Once again, follow the blood trail to see where it has gone and get into position for another shot on it.

Keep on the blood trail into the trees and around the rock to the left. Follow it up the slope to the fence where you can see it jumped a hole in it. Go over to the right from there and keep after the blood trail. This deer is incredibly tenacious. Head into the barn ahead down the slope.

Once in the barn start on over to the left and look for a small room there. Inside, find the desk and open the drawer. You will find the next Comic for Ellie sitting in there. There are also crafting supplies in this room so be sure to look around for them. Once you have all that just keep on moving forward through the barn to the far side of it. You will encounter David and James. They barter with Ellie: Medicine for Deer Meat. James takes off and Ellie keeps her sights on David. She has him bring the deer into the barn.

After a while there things take a turn for the worse: Infected show up. Head over to the locker and open it up. Grab the Health Kit inside then get to one of the windows so you can start taking down the various Infected that show up.
