Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 868 Evacuation of the City

Discussions continued until dark, and countless proposals were put forward, all kinds of strange methods were available.

A volley of restraint bullets was fired to lock down the city walls, gunpowder was used as bait to lure them out of the city, and a large amount of kerosene was ignited to attack the fire.

As long as it is not too outrageous, the Great Elder will order people to record it. If it is more feasible, it will focus on preparation.

The "poison bait" tactic, which has been proven effective in Metabeta, is naturally regarded as one of the key strategies.

The Great Elder ordered that Master Campbell be responsible for organizing and dispatching personnel to fully produce gunpowder, and private workshops and factories will also join the logistics queue.

There are two main purposes for this.

Scholars and hunters agree that at Metabeta, the gianodon was not killed, simply because there was not enough gunpowder.

Appetizer-level gunpowder can’t kill you, so this time, wait until you’re full before blowing it up!

There is another reason that the Great Elder didn't say clearly, but people with more active minds can also see it.

Whether the giant halberd will really attack Dongdoruma is still unknown, after all, its whereabouts have not been confirmed yet.

The Great Elder is planning to use a large amount of gunpowder as bait to actively attract the giant halberd to Dongduoluma, which has the strongest defense force, to solve the problem once and for all.

This decision is very dangerous. After all, the battle street in East Doruma is "not in good condition", but this does not prevent it from still being the strongest fortress in the whole continent.

If you don't do this, the giant halberd will attack and destroy a city every few days, and within a few weeks, the entire Old Continent will be in chaos.

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a hasty knock on the door, and Gordon and Hayata sat up from the bed with a "boo!"

As hunters who often camp in the wild, their vigilance is much higher than that of ordinary people.

After being confused for half a second, after realizing that this was Dongduoluma's residence, Gordon yawned and muttered, "I'll go and open the door."

Hayata also put on a coat and followed.

Living in a room on the first floor has this kind of disadvantage. When visitors come, they have to be responsible for opening the door. Fengying who lives in the attic on the third floor never needs to think about these things.

I stuffed my head under the pillow, rolled over, and continued to sleep.

Opening the door of the house, there was a young woman in light armor outside the door. Judging from the armor style, she was not a guild knight, but a sheriff of the municipal department or something.

The security officer was a little taken aback when he saw the two people who opened the door.

A young man and woman, should they be a cohabiting couple or a young couple? That doesn't matter, what's up with the physique

Fortunately, the lady said that although she was over 180 centimeters tall, which was quite tall for women, she at least belonged to the category of "normal people".

That man, most of his face is beyond the door frame, only his chin can be seen

Gordon bowed his head and shrugged and squeezed out of the door frame. The sheriff subconsciously took a step back and almost fell off the steps in front of the door.

Hayata's soft laughter came from behind.

Gordon: "."

Well, his size is a bit intimidating for normal people.

"Hey, who are you?" Gordon cleared his throat and asked.

He didn't insist on a "kind smile" or anything, past experience told him that doing so would make others more nervous.

The young Miss Magistrate was also ashamed of her previous subconscious actions, she quickly stood up straight, and said with a sullen face: "The Hunter's Guild has issued an emergency declaration, and dangerous monsters are coming.

The city hall has decided to evacuate East Doruma. Please pack your carry-on luggage as soon as possible. The weight of each person's luggage should not exceed 20 kilograms. Special personnel will organize the evacuation afterwards. "

Gordon looked up at the street, and found that there were still several sheriffs knocking on the door to notify them.

"We are hunters, the guild has arrangements, don't worry about us." Gordon explained briefly.

"Ah!"

Miss Sheriff looked stunned, her character seemed to be very serious, and added, "If there are other residents in the house, please help to inform."

"It's okay, they are also hunters."

"Well, that's it, I understand. Goodbye." Miss Sheriff nodded, and trotted away. After running down the steps in front of the door, she suddenly turned around and bowed, "The city is left to you."

"Well, leave it to us."

Gordon responded with a smile, and returned to the house with Hayata, just in time to see Anshir, who had finished washing and put on his armor, coming down the stairs.

"Citizens are being evacuated outside?"

"Well, did you hear that?" Gordon asked.

"I saw it from the window." Anshir replied casually.

Hayata asked curiously: "Is this kind of evacuation common?"

In her impression, the whole city of Minergard had not been evacuated anyway, even if the old mountain dragon attacked before, it was just an organization to evacuate.

"It's not common. Except for this time, I only experienced it once when I was very young." Anshir pulled the chair by the dining table and sat down.

"Due to factors such as geographical location and road construction, East Doruma will be attacked by ancient dragons every few years or ten years.

Most of the time, there is no need to evacuate. For example, when the Rusty Steel Dragon attacked before, there was no organized evacuation, and only evacuation was arranged.

This time the Great Elder also felt unsure, after all, the opponent is such a monster, and the situation in Battle Street is not optimistic.

By the way, the guild arranged for the production of a large amount of gunpowder. Don't disclose the matter of actively attracting the giant halberd. It will cause big trouble. "

Gordon rolled his eyelids, "You should remind Fengying, not us.

By the way, you said that you experienced the evacuation of the whole city when you were a child. What happened that time, was it also a super-large ancient dragon or something? "

An Xier shrugged and said: "I really investigated this matter later, the situation was quite special, it wasn't a super-large ancient dragon, but a Xialong that ran out from the depths of the wetland.

As you all know, the poisonous mist from the ancient dragon would be unimaginable if it drifted into the city, so the guild arranged for an evacuation. "

"Xialong"

"I remember that the permanent population of East Doruma is nearly 100,000, and the floating population is nearly 200,000. Where are all these people going to evacuate?" Hariyata asked.

"There are a lot of shelters built around East Doruma, although it's definitely not comfortable, it shouldn't be a big problem to stay crowded for a few days.

In fact, in the past, part of the evacuation from the East Doruma Port to the sea will be carried out, but considering the tragedy at the Metabeta Port, there should be no evacuation to the sea this time. "

Speaking of this, Anshir paused, and changed the subject, "We don't need to worry about the evacuation, but how well you are preparing, Gordon, your [Shenwei] sword is broken, and you have decided, Hayata Which sword did you use?"

"Well"

This didactic tone made the two subconsciously sit up straight.

Hayata slowly took out an apple from the fruit basket on the table, broke it in half, and handed half to Gordon. In the past few seconds, her brain was running at high speed, and she quickly figured out how to answer.

"I heard from the hunters in Metabeta that dragon-type weapons are more effective? I'm going to use the dragon sword [Red Lotus], and I'll get it from the Dragon Sense Ship in a while."

Gordon held half an apple in his mouth, and followed Hayata's words: "Weak dragon, that's fine, I'll use [Red Wing]."

Seeing the decision of the two rushing to answer, An Xier felt a little itchy.

At this time, Fengying in her pajamas also rubbed her eyes, scratched her belly, and walked down the stairs, seeing Anshir frowning with a slack look without any sense of tension.

In order to change his temper, Gordon shouted at Fengying who opened his mouth and yawned, "Fengying! You are also going to join the battle when the giant halberd dragon is attacking. Have you chosen your weapon yet?!"

"Ah?" Fengying was puzzled, and subconsciously replied, "Is there any other weapon I can choose?"

Anhill: "."

These swordsmen.
