Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

The third day after the battle meeting.

The evacuation of East Doruma has been completed. Whether it is a residential area or a prosperous trade street, even the famous East Doruma Port in the mainland is silent.

Walking on a deserted street, an empty bamboo basket was blown by the wind and rolled past the hunters. Fengying stepped on it, muttering, "It's all turned into a ghost town."

An Xier glanced at her, "This means a thorough evacuation is a good thing."

"The guild suddenly ordered us hunters who participated in the battle to gather in Battle Street. There should be news." Gordon turned his head and urged, "Let's go faster."

"Huh?! Is the giant halberd here? It's so sudden!" Feng Ying subconsciously wanted to check the items in the item bag.

Knowing that Fengying has no experience in large-scale defensive operations, Hayata explained: "No, if the giant halberd is attacking, then instead of sending people to call for a gathering, they will directly sound the alarm.

If we gathered, we should have confirmed the whereabouts of the giant halberd, so let us enter the fighting street and station in advance to prepare for the battle. "

"So that's how it is." Feng Ying kicked the bamboo basket flying, "Then why are we in such a hurry?"

Gordon bared his teeth at her, "It's easier to grab a better quality tent."

"That's the reason"

After passing through the residential area and the trade area at the foot of the mountain, Gordon and the others entered Battle Street.

The so-called Fighting Street is actually a very large urn city, covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters.

The structure of the city wall here is very special. It is not a vertical wall, but a stepped one.

Each floor is nearly 20 meters high, and the total height of the three floors exceeds 50 meters. Even a super-giant ancient dragon like Laoshanlong cannot climb out of the urn.

These layered city walls are equipped with a large number of artillery and heavy bed crossbows, and the hunters can launch three-dimensional attacks on the attackers from all directions.

The dragon-slaying cannon, which is called "the decisive weapon against ancient dragons" by the master craftsman, was installed on the city wall on the highest floor.

The construction cost of this kind of stepped city wall is several times that of ordinary city walls, and it is because of this indestructible battle street that Dong Duo Luma can stand firm in the countless attacks of ancient dragons.

The outer city walls are the only exception.

The city wall separating Battle Street and the outside of the city is a traditional vertical structure. Although it is also strong at the fort level, ordinary monsters cannot break through it at all, but it is a little weak in the face of the strong attack of the ancient dragon.

It was this city wall that the Rusty Steel Dragon smashed down.

Land monsters like Laoshanlong are not even "qualified" to enter Battle Street if they don't tear down the city wall.

It is said that this design also has a deep meaning. After all, the purpose of Dongduoluma's establishment of the Battle Street is to repel monsters, not to hunt dogs behind closed doors to hunt ancient dragons.

A trapped beast with no way out is the most dangerous.

If the attacker is afraid, he can turn around and leave at any time.

Anyone who knows the history of East Doruma knows that the outer city wall was rebuilt eight times if not ten times.

Gordon looked at the outer city wall that had just been rebuilt under the overtime efforts of the craftsmen, and couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

If the giant halberd dragon attacks, this city wall will probably not be able to survive, it's really hard work for them

"Brother Gordon! This way!"

Hearing someone calling himself, Gordon turned his head and looked, and the newcomer Aiden trotted all the way to them.

"The temporary camp is over there, and the people have almost arrived!"

They followed Aiden to the so-called temporary camp. The conditions were slightly better than Gordon had imagined, at least not in the open air, but some rooms built inside the city wall of Fighting Street.

There is also a public storage box, which is full of various supplies, which can be used freely after the battle begins.

Gordon glanced around the room and stopped paying attention.

The previous talk about grabbing the tent was just a joke with Fengying, it was only a few days anyway, he didn't care about the living environment, as long as it was enough to lie down.

Except that Anshir unloaded a lot of ammunition boxes from Gale, the others didn't have much luggage to put, so Gordon asked Aiden to take them to the place where the hunters gathered.

The guild notified them to come and gather, there should be a collective meeting or announcement.

Just as he expected, more than 30 hunters had already gathered on the city wall where the Dragon Slayer Cannon was erected, and the number was still increasing.

Gordon noticed that Master and Julius were there, and made his way through the crowd toward them.

"Ahem, here we come." The master smiled and nodded to Gordon and the others, "The investigation team sent by the guild has confirmed the location of the giant halberd dragon, and arranged for hunting cats to take turns to monitor it.

Scholars from the Gulong Observatory judged that the next attack would happen soon. "

Gordon nodded. He was not surprised by this result, otherwise what would they do together?

"Master, are you in charge of this defensive battle?"

"It's not a command, cough cough cough."

Probably due to the recent busyness, the former legendary hunter is not in good physical condition.

He hunched his back and coughed for a while before continuing: "I can only say, convey the general process, ahem, the real on-the-spot judgment depends on you."

"You're really like this, and you still insisted on running out, and you still think that you are the nine-star hunter who singled out the ancient dragon back then?

Don't you have two great disciples? Don't worry about handing it over to them? ' Hilda approached, frowning.

Her words were a bit harsh, but the master still smiled, "As expected of someone who has been an instructor for so many years, cough cough is really strict."

Hilda gritted her teeth.

The two of them were of the same age. As her predecessor, Campbell had always looked like this since she was young, and she always smiled when she scolded him.

After teasing Hilda, the master's expression became more serious, "Ahem, just in time, all three of your teams have arrived, let me tell you guys first.

You also know that to deal with an opponent like the giant halberd, the more hunters, the better.

After discussion, the guild decided that your three teams of high-level hunters will be the main force to stop the giant halberd.

That is, the Silver Edge Hunting Group, the Pen Head Hunting Group, and the 'Training Camp Hunting Group'. "

Hilda rolled her eyes, as if she was dissatisfied with the strange team name "Training Camp Hunting Group", but from a certain point of view, this team name fit the situation quite well.

In addition to her, there are three other people in this team, namely the six-star light crossbowman Gail, the six-star hunter Fei Di, and the eight-star gunner Altman.

Both Gail and Ferdy are excellent hunters who came out of the East Doruma hunter training camp, and Altman, like Hilda, is an instructor of the hunter training camp.

Different from the fixed hunting groups like Yinbian and Bitou, there are often hidden dangers in improvised teams, such as divergent actions, disputes over command rights, and the like.

The training camp team obviously does not have such troubles.

Not to mention Ferdy's hunting whistle of a gentle and family-friendly man, even a rebellious and dirty guy like Gail is like a frightened Marudori in front of the two old instructors.

Dare not be disobedient.

Under the call of their respective captains, three teams, eleven high-ranking hunters, and a sunny and cheerful boy who got in, gathered around Master Campbell.

Fengying smiled happily.

Great! Finally, it's not the one who mixed in!

However, with a smile, her expression froze, and a stern gaze with a look of scrutiny swept over her.

Feng Ying swallowed her saliva, and secretly looked back along the line of sight.

Mom! Who is this gunner next to Aunt Hilda? Why is it taller than Master Gordon? !
