Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter
Chapter 234 Dust City
View from the sky.
Loklark in the middle of the sand sea is like an isolated island in the sea.
The turbulent waves composed of boundless wind and sand are continuous and beat, and the tall giant rock platform is an island reef standing in the sea, which is stable and unmoving, guarding the town and the people on the island.
In the nearby airspace, there are surprisingly many hot air balloons, airships, and even large airships.
Airship flats can be seen everywhere among the earth-rock buildings built in layers according to the topography of Juyan Platform.
Even in the male city of East Doruma located in the center of the continent, it is extremely difficult to see such a large number of aircraft at one time.
According to the jeweler, at least 70% to 80% of them are businessmen and tourists who came here specially for the Harvest Festival.
The prosperity of Locklark can be seen.
Amidst the sound of the fog clock "ding dong ding dong", the airship landed steadily next to a platform.
After politely declining the jeweler's invitation to visit Locklark Commercial Street together, Gordon and his party jumped off the airship and followed the flow of people towards the famous stone gatepost.
The huge stone gatepost standing tall on the outskirts of Loklark is one of the most famous attractions in this sand city, and it is also the "entrance" of the city.
The wide doorway through which several large vehicles can pass side by side proclaims the openness of Locklark.
The special design of only gateposts without city walls and lintels symbolizes the city's continuous upward and never-ending spirit of entering.
"So tall, so tall. Meow!!"
In front of the boulder gatepost, in order to see the top of the pillar, the pork chop kept raising his head, and finally lost his balance and turned over on his back.
Hayata chuckled and helped the pork chop up.
"Welcome to Loklark, how many cats need to guide the way?"
A shrill but polite voice sounded, Gordon and the others looked around and found that the voice was a female Elle with silver-white fur.
It is wearing a uniform-like orange-red blouse and a delicate top hat, looking cute and professional.
The pork chop quickly stood up, it didn't want to lose face in front of its kind.
Silver Elle folded her paws on her chest and bowed gracefully—this is a common etiquette in the desert.
"I'm Carnation Meow, Elu Meow, who belongs to the Rock Clark Tourist Association."
The silver-fur cat Ellu introduced himself: "If you need it, I can show you the way, or guide you to visit Loklark Meow.
Of course, these are free meow, I just hope you have a good time in Locklark meow~. "
Gordon glanced around from the corner of his eye, and found that it wasn't just Dianthus, but also many Ellu cats in the same uniform nearby, serving businessmen and tourists.
I haven't seen such a scene when I came to Locklark before. Is it a newly added measure to benefit the people?
Gordon thought about it, and felt that there was no need to refuse.
Although I have been to Locklark, but in terms of familiarity with the city, I am definitely not as good as these little tour guides.
So, he nodded, "Then please, we are going to the meeting place, please give us a brief introduction along the way."
"Of course you can meow~."
Shizhu consciously walked to the front of the team, and introduced while leading the road, "This is the main gate of Locklark. If you want to enter the city of Locklark, you usually pass through here first.
After entering the gate post, it is the commercial street meow, everyone came at a very good time meow, the Harvest Festival is about to start, and the commercial street will become very lively meow. "
As Dianthus said.
Although the commercial street here is not as neat and spacious as East Doruma, the interweaving of various shops, small stalls, and tents, coupled with the vendors hawking along the way, does have a special vitality.
At Shizhu's suggestion, they bought some local specialty dates from a roadside vendor to try.
Due to the sufficient sunlight and the huge temperature difference between day and night, this rustling fruit is very sweet, so sweet that it is so sweet that Gordon doesn't particularly like it, but the hayata and pork chops are very happy to eat.
After strolling around the commercial street for a while, the group continued forward under the leadership of Shi Zhu.
"From here to the west, there are many residences and hotels. Foreign tourists, caravans, hunters, desert corps, and even some single members of the Walled City Guerrilla will choose to rent here."
Speaking of this, Shi Zhu hesitated.
It lowered its voice and whispered: "The hotels in this area are more affordable, but the space and comfort can't be expected meow. If possible, I suggest you go to a better hotel meow."
Gordon twitched his lips.
At that time, he and Anxiertu found a random place to live in that hotel street, and the conditions were indeed quite ordinary.
"The Walled City Guerrilla?" Hayata asked curiously.
Gordon explained directly: "If you see armed men wearing uniform lightweight armor, hats or turbans, they are guerrillas in the fortress.
The Fortress Guerrilla Force is the official armed organization responsible for defending Locklark. It is divided into two parts, the 'Guerrilla Force' and the 'Archer Force'. Well, they are actually swordsmen and shooters. "
Having said that, Gordon pointed to the sky.
"You saw it when the airship landed just now. There are many snake dragons living in the airspace near Locklark. From time to time, monsters like Huang Sulong will randomly enter the city and cause damage.
Hunters deal with these monsters easily, but hunters who are loosely organized are not so quick to react.
The guerrillas in the fortress are different. They patrol around and will rush to the scene as soon as possible to deal with the monsters and avoid personal injury.
At the same time, the fortress guerrillas are also the last line of defense for Locklark.
In case the Sand Fleet fails to intercept Feng Shanlong, their task is to repel Feng Shanlong desperately. "
"I see." Hayata nodded knowingly.
Shi Zhu glanced at Gordon in surprise, "This Mr. Hunter has been to Locklark before? You know it very well!"
"That's right." Gordon replied with a dry smile.
A year or two ago, when he and Anshir came to Locklark and stayed in Hotel Street, they found out that the room in that hotel was a bunk, and the people who slept with them were the guys from the Fortress Guerrillas, so they learned a lot about it.
A group of people passed the intersection and continued forward.
Dianthus is very responsible for its tour guide work, introducing forging workshops, item shops and other facilities that are very important to hunters along the way.
Unknowingly, the Locklark meeting place is already in sight.
"This is the hunter's gathering place, please enjoy your time in Locklark, meow." Shizhu saluted politely again, and was about to leave.
Gordon and his party also expressed their thanks one after another. The pork chop even took out the dried fish and wanted to share it with the other party, but Shi Zhu politely declined.
This frustrates the little one a bit.
Similar to the meeting house in Tangia Port, the Locklark meeting house is not a "building" but an open-air facility.
The sunshade roof made of black tarpaulins blocks the harsh sunlight.
Naturally, such a "ceiling" cannot block the rain, but this is a desert, so it doesn't matter.
Gordon looked around.
Finally, at a wine table, he found the elder of the dragon clan he was looking for, with a red cap on his head.
Seeing the leisurely look of the little old man with side dishes and wine, Gordon walked forward with a smile.
Ps.
We quite like all kinds of settings. A lot of information is hidden in the equipment introduction, npc dialogue and so on. It's interesting to discover it by chance.
However, this set of equipment for the Fortress Guerrilla, emmm, is said to be the standard equipment of the Locklark local guards, and at the same time requires a lot of materials for Lanlong and Fengshanlong.
Ye Loklark raised Lanmei on a large scale, right?
In short, here I set the guerrilla set as a low-grade mass-produced equipment, similar to the cloud set and the fire set, otherwise it would be too outrageous.
