Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 191 Route to the Western Continent

When Gordon was practicing powerful sweeps over and over again in the master's studio, Ancier and Feng Ying also came to Jessica.

Seeing the people coming, Jessica put down the quill in her hand, stood up behind the impressive desk, and led them to the sofa to sit down.

Perhaps because she was reassured after checking her background, Jessica was much kinder than when they first met.

She glanced at Feng Ying and said with a smile: "It seems that the nutritionist is doing a good job. Little sister Feng Ying is much more mellow."

Feng Ying: "."

Is it really that obvious?

"What do you two want to drink? Honey and milk? And black tea?"

"Ahem, don't worry about the drinks."

Anxier cleared his throat. He had no intention of going around in circles with his sister Jessica, "I just went to ask my mother. You are obviously very distressed recently, why didn't you come to me?"

Jessica's movements were obviously stagnant. She held her forehead and sighed, "Haha. Mother really, clearly emphasized not to say it."

An Xil snorted coldly, "Oh, actually my mother didn't tell me, but I didn't expect you to be so deceitful. Tell me, what happened to the Chamber of Commerce that requires the help of a hired hunter?"

The wry smile on Jessica's face became even more obvious.

She was almost ten years older than Anxil, and in her subconscious, Anxil was still the rebellious teenager who sneaked away to find her to borrow money to buy a house before running away from home.

But he didn't notice that he was already in his twenties at this time, and he was no longer the little kid who pouted all day long.

She crossed her legs and put her intertwined hands on her knees. After a moment of silence, she said, "Well, you are a hunter who travels all over the country anyway, so you can at least provide some advice."

Anhil stretched out a palm and motioned for Jessica to continue.

"The family caravan has a batch of goods that need to be delivered to Jieyun Village in the Western Continent before the end of the year. This business is very important and is directly related to whether our chamber of commerce can open up sales in the Western Continent."

Anhir nodded.

No wonder her father was so concerned about information about the Western Continent and even fooled Feng Ying into asking questions.

Jessica raised two fingers and said, "There are currently two optional routes from East Doruma to Jieyun Village on the West Continent.

The first is to cross the inland sea to Metabetate Port, then turn to land and go westward to Minagard City, then take a boat across the ocean from Minagarde Port and arrive at Jieyun Village.

This route took about two months and was the fastest route and the original route."

An Xil nodded lightly, and Feng Ying also nodded seriously.

This time the little girl is not pretending to agree, she has really walked this road, at least most of it.

"The second option is to depart from East Doruma Port and head south, land across the land bridge, and then continue to take a boat south to Tangia Port. After replenishing supplies, you will circle the mainland and continue to take the sea route to the west, arrive at the Western Continent, and cross the ice.

Islands, land near Yanhuo Village, then take the land route all the way north, across Feiye Fortress, until arriving at Jieyun Village."

An Xil's mouth twitched, "This road is too far. Even if most of the journey is on the sea, it will take at least three to four months."

"Matumatamat!" Feng Ying on the side jumped up from the sofa, and her dialect came out. (Just think of it as dialect, you can't just 'wait a clam')

"Everything else is fine, but walking overland from Yanhuo Village to Jieyun Village is too scary, right? Distance is not the key. Do you know how many mountains and dangerous hunting grounds you have to cross?

Even if we hire a whole team of hunters, we can't protect the caravan!" Feng Ying waved her little hand.

As a native of the Western Continent, what she said was very convincing.

Jessica's face looked as if she was constipated. After holding it in for a while, she said feebly: "Of course we also know that this route is unreasonable, but the problem is that the sea area near Jieyun Village is blocked."

"What does it mean that the sea area is blocked?" Anhir asked with a frown.

"Don't you know that starting half a month ago, the entire northern coast of the Western Continent has been enveloped by an inexplicable storm that ordinary ships cannot survive.

The storm's impact is very wide, and can even affect the waters near Minagard Port to a certain extent, so we have to abandon the original route and find a new route."

"Eh?"

Feng Ying had a question mark on her face, "Will there be long-term storms in the north? I didn't encounter any when I took the boat to Minagard."

"Is there a map?" Ancil asked.

"Of course." Jessica ordered the waiter to get the map and spread it out on the coffee table in front of several people.

Ancier's eyes were firmly fixed on the north of the Western Continent.

Is it strange for a storm to suddenly appear and exist for a long time, covering an extremely wide area and covering the entire sea area?

Of course it's strange.

For ordinary people, they may only mutter "respect this magical nature".

But in the eyes of hunters who know certain things, abnormal weather and natural disasters often herald the existence of another kind of thing.

——Gu Long.

As Gordon's partner and friend, the former's experience of encountering Gu Long was not hidden from him.

Unusual storm, north of western continent.

Putting these two pieces of information together may seem like nothing, but to the ears of people who know the existence of "Tianjin Disaster", it may have another meaning.

Anhil took a deep breath to calm down.

There are some things that should never be disclosed to ordinary people, unless you want to be visited by the guild in the middle of the night and invited to drink tea.

But this does not prevent him from giving reminders in other ways.

"Abandon the first route. The existence of the storm is too great a threat to the cumbersome merchant ships. This is no longer a 'gamble' level of danger, but a risk to the caravan's death."

Jessica agreed with Ancil's statement, "So we are preparing for the second route.

The other parts are fairly easy to deal with. There are chambers of commerce branches in the cities we pass through, so supplies are very convenient. The biggest trouble now is the problem of hiring hunters to escort us."

"What kind of trouble is it specifically referring to?"

Jessica rubbed her forehead and said, "I went to the Hunter Assembly Hall to discuss it with the guild manager. This second route can be roughly divided into two parts.

More than 80% of the journey ahead is basically by sea. We will travel along the coastline without any danger.

The focus is on the land route from Yanhuo Village to Jieyun Village after landing in the Western Continent.

Just like little sister Feng Ying said, the guild director also said that this journey is extremely dangerous, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a narrow escape."

"At worst, we can spend a lot of money to hire a team of high-ranking hunters. The most important thing our family needs is money, right?" Anhil suggested.

Jessica smiled bitterly, "To put it lightly, hire a team of high-level hunters to escort the caravan for three to four months?

Regardless of the sky-high commissions, it is worth spending any amount of money to open up business routes.

The problem is that there are no high-level hunters willing to take them in. This has only been happening for half a year. Do you think there are a lot of high-level hunters? Are they usually very idle? Or are they short of money?"

Anhil thought for a while and made another suggestion, "Since the first half of the sea route is not dangerous, is it possible to hire hunters to escort us after arriving at Yanhuo Village?

In this way, most of the money can be saved, and the task time will not be that long.”

Now it was Feng Ying's turn to shake her head, "Yanhuo Village doesn't have that many powerful hunters to send." (No, you do--!)

"That's really troublesome." Anxier rubbed his forehead in the same way as his sister.

He finally understood why Jessica was so distressed before.

"Eh? Maybe it can be like this!" Feng Ying suddenly raised her little hand.

Jessica and Ancil both turned their eyes to her.

Feng Ying stretched out her finger and pressed the location of Yanhuo Village on the map, "We can also split the trip to the Western Continent. After supplying supplies in Yanhuo Village, we don't rush to turn overland and continue along the east coast of the Western Continent.

Sailing.

In this way, we can avoid the most dangerous abandoned shrine, Feiye Fortress, and a series of dangerous mountains behind it."

The eyes of the siblings followed Feng Ying's fingers.

"The caravan landed in this bay. It is blocked by the continental shelf and should not be affected by the storm.

If we take the land route from here, we only need to cross the dense forest on the south side of Jieyun Village to reach Jieyun Village!

In this case, we can protect the safety of the caravan without the need for high-ranking hunters to take action."

Jessica and Ancil looked at each other.

Although the route proposed by Feng Ying still has many detailed issues that need to be resolved urgently.

For example, confirm the hydrological conditions of that bay, and how to deliver the vehicles and livestock necessary for land transportation to the bay.

But generally speaking.

feasible!

Ps.

This chapter is quite crucial. Old hunters who have played p3 should also know that the plot of p3 is about to unfold.

Well, actually it won’t be that fast, it will unfold slowly.

There are two points to be said in advance. I will hide the protagonist (player) of p3, otherwise nothing will happen to the characters in this book.

Also, this plot will be based on the plot of p3, but it will not be copied, which would be boring. Please don't worry about "this place is different from the plot"~
