Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 554 Busy Construction Site

The crossbow shell accurately hit the head of the male fire dragon, exploding into a cloud of dark yellow smoke with an amazing smell and color.

"Roar!"

Stimulated by the stench, the male fire dragon shook its head desperately, and even its flying movements were affected, rising and falling.

The hunters who were waiting to see the old guy show off his skills looked at each other in confusion.

No one expected that the first thing Miles would use would be fertilizer bullets. This kind of crossbow bullets are very uncommon, and the throwing fertilizer balls are slightly more commonly used, but neither type is like what hunters carry with them on a daily basis. Props to carry.

Just a few hours away, have you even prepared for this?

Slowly loading an armor-clearing grenade into the Velociraptor heavy crossbow, the old hunter pulled the crossbow bolt and loaded the gun, his eyes never leaving the red flying dragon rolling and soaring among the dark clouds.

Are you unable to stand the stimulation of the stench and leave? Or are you angry and launching a violent attack?

"Roar——!" The male fire dragon roared angrily, flapped its wings, and swooped towards the airship.

The guild member smiled bitterly and said: "Master Xia Zuo, after all, it is an old fortress that has been abandoned for many years. There are problems with the walls, the dragon gun, and even the underground steam boiler.

"Chaka, baba, baba."

There were several bonfires as high as half a person burning there, and dozens of hunters, together with the craftsmen on shift, were sitting around the bonfires, drinking, barbecuing and chatting.

Two or three seconds later, a bright light erupted, and the male fire dragon flying closer and closer screamed, its body lost its balance, its wings flapped randomly, and it continued to fall downwards.

The engineering team has been working overtime for more than half a month to repair it, and their person in charge said that the repair work will be completed before Lao Shanlong arrives."

Walking off the airship with a displeased expression on his face, Gordon looked around.

The wall made of huge limestone bricks is full of mottled marks. Countless craftsmen cling to it like ants, relying on ropes and scaffolding, and seize every minute to strengthen the wall.

Miles put away the crossbow, rubbed Pork Chop's little head, and said with a smile, "A group of high-level hunters combined are not as useful as you."

Gordon looked around and finally knew what attracted them.

Crisis resolved.

The city wall is very tall, with the top of the wall nearly forty meters above the ground.

Miles seized the opportunity and fired an armor-clearing grenade.

The result was an embarrassing situation where an old man and a cat saved a whole boat of young men and women.

Xia Zuo couldn't help but frowned. He looked at the guild members who were traveling with him and asked in a low voice: "Lao Shanlong will arrive in four or five days. Aren't the preparations here completed yet?"

Hayata nodded slightly cautiously.

It screamed strangely and flapped its wings. Under the gaze of the hunters, it got into the clouds below and flew away into the distance.

Everyone is trying their best, but it can only be said that the appearance of Lao Shanlong this time is too sudden.

As I walked around the corner, my vision suddenly opened up.

Everyone walked forward together, but before they turned around the corner of the naturally formed canyon, the roaring sounds of people and machinery ahead reached their ears.

Heineye, whose personality is basically a female version of Ted, followed closely behind.

After being introduced by the president's lady, they all knew that both the new village and the old village were built on the basis of a canyon, and they were now at the bottom of a canyon.

Ted, who was one step ahead, had already raised his glass and drank while the people around him cheered.

Noticing their arrival, the hunters around the campfire squeezed each other to make some space for Gordon and the others to sit down.

She is not very used to the way others use honorifics to communicate with her, but others have long been used to it.

Even if he brought it, he didn't think of taking action because he "trusted" the old hunter too much.

That is the second wall of the old village and the final line of defense of the old village.

The Fire Dragon, which lost its vision under the influence of the flash bomb and was stunned by the detonated armor-clearing grenade, fell several hundred meters before barely regaining its flying posture.

"Well, did you really choose to attack?" Miles locked the target with the scope, "Then we have to do it hard."

Compared with the stench of the fertilizer bombs, the bright light that deprived it of vision and the attack that made it dizzy made it feel more fearful.

"I know you can drink, but drink less." Yamos also reminded Hayata.

One of them is still stretched out and seems to be faulty. Several craftsmen and engineers are hanging next to it, busy repairing it.

It's just that the condition of these two dragon-killing guns doesn't look very good. The bodies of the guns are stained with rust, and the heads of the guns that should be shining with a sharp cold light also look a bit worn and dull.

The male fire dragon realized that this was not an opponent with an empty size.

"Meow!"

Some people are worried, while others appear heartless.

The cliffs on both sides are not too high, with the highest point about thirty or forty meters. Some defenses, such as artillery emplacements, can also be seen on the top of the cliffs.

The guild member who was traveling with the top hunters pointed in one direction and explained: "We are now on the battle street between the two city walls. If we walk around the corner over there, we can see the city wall.

Until more than an hour later, when the airship landed at its destination, the hair on Pig Chop's body was still messy.

The hunters stuck their heads out of the side of the boat and looked down.

The business roads in the wild basically look like this.

Miles gave him a sharp look, but unfortunately he didn't see it.

Their tool bags more or less carry some props, which cannot be said to be empty, but most of them are basic supplies such as healing potions and sharpening stones. There are not many who carry flash bombs with them.

The ground has obviously been artificially leveled. Although there are no stone bricks or stones, there are still weeds and shrubs growing in many places, which at least will not affect movement.

"Where are we?" Hayata asked the doubt in her heart.

The upper-level hunters looked at each other awkwardly and found it difficult to refute.

"It smells like wine!" Ted licked his lips and couldn't help but quicken his pace.

That's where the smell of alcohol comes from.

In the middle of the wall, you can see two giant dragon-killing guns made of steel, which are the most critical weapons of the fortress.

"I hope so." Xia Zuo sighed in a low voice.

Amidst the sharp meowing of the cat, Pig Chop jumped onto the side of the ship and threw out the small prop in his hand.

Dozens of simple tents were set up on the edge of the square, which had turned into a large construction site.

The square was roughly in the shape of an olive. When they walked around the corner, they were at one end of a long section, and the other end was the city wall mentioned by the guild members.

Noticing the eagerness of the younger guys in the team to try, Xia Zuo sighed, "Go ahead, don't drink too much, we have business tomorrow."

High-ranking hunters belong to the high-end military force that protects human beings, and it is very common for them to be respectfully called "Sir So-and-so".

There is a large open space in front of the city wall, but it is a mess and there are many people there, so it is not convenient for the airship to land, so I would like to trouble you, but you have to walk a little further."

After seeing something, Ted rushed out like a crazy wild boar, "Ouch!" Miles, whose face turned black, didn't even hold him back.

In order to cover up his embarrassment, Gordon could only imitate Miles, touch the pork chop, and praise it in a slightly exaggerated way.

Gordon and the others looked at each other and ran over laughing.

Not to mention Ted, Gordon was a little excited - it looked so lively there, just like a bonfire party.

This is a flat open space of tens of thousands of square meters, or a square.

Others followed suit and raised and lowered their hands around the pork chop.

The little odd-faced tribe, wearing an empty wine barrel as a mask, swayed and walked around Ted.

Pork Chop, who had just sat down on a wooden box, sniffed and felt something was wrong. He jumped off the wooden box, opened the edge of the lid and took a look.

When he found out that it was filled with artillery shells, he jumped in shock and said, "What the hell are you doing?!"

The strange hunters around burst into laughter.
