Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

When Gordon Fengying returned to the Star Stronghold, the Commander-in-Chief and others had indeed received the news and were preparing to send a peregrine falcon to deliver a message to call him back.

"You guys came back quickly." Seeing Gordon Fengying walking into the headquarters, the Commander-in-Chief, who frowned and stared at the map, couldn't help but relax.

"Didn't I guess that you must organize a combat meeting?" Gordon said with a smile.

The commander-in-chief crossed his arms and said, "What you said makes it sound like I love organizing meetings."

"You do like meetings." The sword master, who looked like a statue and was sitting on a large wooden barrel behind the Commander-in-Chief, suddenly spoke.

Being ridiculed by his old friend, a hint of embarrassment flashed across the commander-in-chief's face, "This is to gather everyone's wisdom. When did this guy sit here?"

Listening to the bickering between the two seniors, Gordon Fengying snickered secretly.

Perhaps it was because meetings were held frequently, and the meetings were quickly organized.

The monitor of the research class, the director of the Institute of Ecology, the monitor of the supplies squad, the leader of the second phase of the regiment, as well as Rania from the security team and other important backbones all arrived.

The Commander-in-Chief was a straightforward man. After seeing that everyone had arrived, he shared the news from the Great Ant Mound Wasteland with everyone.

"This is probably the situation. According to the analysis and speculation of scholars, Laoshanosaurus is heading to the Grand Canyon." The commander-in-chief pointed to the intermittent lines on the map formed by clues and information collected by various investigation teams.

"Based on our research and understanding of the ancient dragon crossing phenomenon over the years, the final destination of the Laoshan Dragon is likely to be the Miasma Valley."

"Miasma Valley." Gordon's expression was solemn, "Let's not care about the serious damage it will cause to the ecology of the mainland coral platform along the way, and whether it can really squeeze into the Miasma Valley.

The Lava Dragon doesn't have the ability to fly, so how can it cross the Grand Canyon? Did the collision dig out a passage? "

"It's possible." The director of the Institute of Ecology, who had stripped off his hair but insisted on wearing a crown, stroked his snow-white mustache, "Laoshanlong, Fengshanlong and other super giant ancient dragons have the ability to destroy terrain.

The Lava Mountain Dragon, which is much larger than them, is probably no exception. They have no concept of "detours", otherwise the guild would not build strongholds on their migration routes. "

The leader of the research team thought for a moment, picked up a charcoal pen, and drew a circle at the southwest corner of the Luhu Coral Platform, not far from the location of the third-phase regiment's research base.

"If the Molten Dragon's goal is really the Miasma Valley, then the only entrance and exit that it can squeeze in is here.

The route should be like this, break into the Grand Canyon from the north of the Great Anthill Wasteland, then go west along the Grand Canyon, leave the Grand Canyon near the research base, and enter the Miasma Valley. "

The leader of the research class drew a long, winding arrow.

Gordon nodded and agreed, "With this route, our blocking work will become much more purposeful."

"I need to remind everyone that the depths of the Miasma Valley are very close to and even directly connected to the Earth Corridor. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the appearance of mushroom pigs at the bottom of the Miasma Valley." The director of the Ecological Research Institute said meaningfully.

The headquarters fell into silence for a moment.

The commander-in-chief stared at the route for a long time, and finally made up his mind. He cut his palm on the location of the Grand Canyon on the map, "I decided to launch a battle to capture the Lava Dragon in the Grand Canyon."

"Capture?" Feng Ying stared. This was her first speech since the meeting began. "Capturing a creature of that size is a bit too exaggerated, right?!"

Not to mention the cage, even if all the steel in the stars were taken out, they would not be able to make an iron chain that could bind the Molten Mountain Dragon.

Gordon patted the back of Feng Ying's head, turned sideways and whispered, "The so-called 'capture' is just a euphemism. Just understand it as 'cruel'."

Rania: “Look at——.”

The commander-in-chief looked over helplessly and corrected: "It's not that aggressive. It would be best to be able to repel it, if possible."

Everyone's expressions were slightly subtle, but even Rania, who was the eye of the guild, was not prepared to continue on this topic.

An old giant ancient dragon is about to die. Is there any other way to make it turn back?

"So Commander, how will the battle be carried out? We need to prepare in advance and transport supplies." the supplies squad leader asked.

The commander-in-chief smiled bitterly, "To be honest, I don't have a clue. The standard procedure for fighting against a super giant ancient dragon is to build a strong stronghold and then use a large number of artillery and heavy weapons such as dragon guns to repel it.

Are our supplies enough to build a strong enough defense line in the Grand Canyon? "

The supplies squad leader's face turned a little green, "Are you building a line of defense in the Grand Canyon? Do you mean building a wall in the Grand Canyon to block the path of the Molten Dragon?"

"That's pretty much what it means."

"No, no, no, it's absolutely impossible. Building a city wall requires a lot of stone materials. We don't have enough materials, and we can't transport these stones. It's absolutely too late to build the city wall.

Blocking the Grand Canyon, my God, that is a huge project that takes ten years. "The squad leader of the supplies team scratched his head frantically with his dreadlocks.

"Is it possible to build a barrier similar to scaffolding with a wooden structure?" The leader of the research team raised his hand and suggested, "Such a barrier would be constructed very quickly. Although it cannot be as strong as a masonry city wall, it can at least be used in There are heavy crossbows and turrets placed on it." (That's the kind in the game)

The material squad leader made a quick calculation and said with a wry smile: "This is still feasible. With almost all the manpower and about half of the resources, we should be able to build such a wooden frame within a month. '."

The commander-in-chief held his chin and began to think carefully about this plan.

Feng Ying frowned after hearing this, and Gordon sighed silently.

Although the commander-in-chief and others are wise, they obviously have no experience in dealing with super giant ancient dragons.

He raised his hand and said bluntly: "I am against this plan."

Everyone in the headquarters immediately focused their attention.

"I have participated in many blocking operations against super-giant ancient dragons. The example of Styracosaurus, which is particularly offensive and can fly, will not be mentioned for now.

Let’s compare Laoshan Dragon, whose temperament and behavior are not much different from Laoshan Dragon. "

Gordon glanced at the crowd, "Let me tell you some statistics. Laoshanlong, which is more than seventy meters long and has a spine height of less than thirty meters, is under siege by dozens of elite hunters and dozens of artillery pieces.

It only took less than seven hours to destroy a fortress-level city wall with a height of more than 50 meters and a thickness of more than 10 meters, with a steel structure frame and two dragon guns installed.

The body length and ridge height of Laoshanosaurus are more than four times that of Laoshanosaurus, and its weight may be nearly a thousand times that of Laoshanosaurus.

How long do you hope to stop the Molten Dragon with a flimsy wooden frame that doesn't even have a dragon gun and isn't even a 'wall'?

I'm afraid it didn't even need to slow down its pace. If it walked over normally, the wooden city wall would be crushed in an instant. "

The leader of the research class who proposed the wooden wall suggestion opened his mouth, and then admitted with a wry smile: "I'm sorry, I didn't think it through."

Gordon did not continue to mock him. After a pause, he continued: "Based on the available information, it can be speculated that Laoshanlong weighs one hundred thousand tons, or even more than one million tons. (After all, it is carrying a mountain on its back. )

The volcanic rock carapace on the body is probably several to tens of meters thick. Conventional artillery, heavy crossbows, and restraint bombs should not have much effect on it.

If you want to repel it, you must find another way. "

Ps.

I really want to complain about the game - let's just say that none of the monsters in Pacific Rim are bigger than the Molten Dragon.

Using a shaky wooden frame to block the molten mountain dragon, it actually blocked it for a long time.

Well, to be honest, I think with mh's technical level, being able to defeat the Molten Dragon is very 'unscientific'.

His life was short, the fire energy had accumulated too much, and his heat dissipation organs had been destroyed. This was almost the only way to explain it.
