Chapter 553 The boys are not cautious enough
In the next two days, the upper-level hunters almost always stayed together in the training ground.
Continuing to refine tactics is one aspect, and everyone is also constantly working together to cultivate a tacit understanding, which is very important for subsequent operations.
The hunters of Longliyuan arrived half a day later than expected, which also made the president, Madam and others worried for a long time.
Fortunately, it was only because the power system of the airship had a problem halfway that it slowed down a bit.
Insect Stick Maker Agaxi is a short-haired woman who doesn’t talk much but is always smiling.
She is very tall. Hayata's height of over 180 centimeters is already considered outstanding among women, but she is half a head taller than Hayata.
Her legs are slender, with obvious muscle lines in her thighs and thighs. According to Zhupa, her legs are longer than Feng Ying's whole body. She looks like she is very good at jumping high. No wonder she is in the air combat style.
Chip, the axe-slayer, is a muscular man with a bold personality, who fits the world's stereotype of a hunter. He always likes to say "hahahaha" a few times before speaking. He is very close to Gordon. When they meet, he will give him a bear hug, and then They hooked up with each other all the way.
This made Hayata look at Chip strangely.
After listening to Gordon's explanation, I found out that Chip was a good friend of Bernard, the founder of the Courage style, during his lifetime, so he had a good impression of him who inherited Bernard's legacy.
Hmm, as long as he’s not a weird person.
After the high-ranking hunters participating in the battle arrived, the president gave them an afternoon of free time.
This time is mainly given to the local hunters of Minagard to say goodbye to their families.
The few hunters who were ordered to come to support had nothing to do, so the president asked Evelin and the others to explain the combat procedures and details to the newly arrived Agashi two.
Gordon originally planned to stay together, but in the end he accompanied Hayata back home under the joking eyes of everyone.
Actually, he just wanted to get his big sword [Kinghu] back, maybe it would come in handy in battle.
at dusk.
The upper level hunters, many of them, returned to the meeting place on time.
There is even one more person.
“Mr. Miles!”
“Senior Miles.”
Hunters from Micheng who were familiar with the old man came forward one after another and took the initiative to say hello to him.
"Hehehe, old man, you haven't forgotten how to pull the trigger, have you?" Xia Zuo, who has a calm personality, made a rare joke.
Ted’s father, Miles, a former six-star hunter, smiled and patted Xia Zuo’s arm twice, “Your boy’s hair has actually started to turn gray.
Hey, don’t worry, I’m not that old yet. "
Xia Zuo calmed down his expression and bowed solemnly, "I'm sorry, you have retired. I shouldn't have bothered you."
“Don’t talk that nonsense.” Miles waved his hand to interrupt the former’s words. “Even if you don’t propose it, I will join the war this time. I don’t feel comfortable leaving Minagard completely to you guys.”
Xia Zuo, who is over fifty years old, looks a little dazed. He can't remember the last time someone called him "little boy", how long ago it was.
Besides, Ted whispered in Gordon's ear.
Gordon then realized that their family was actually very familiar with Xia Zuo.
Ted's mother, Miles' late wife, was a dual-sword wielder during her lifetime and was also Xia Zuo's teacher. The latter can be said to have been trained by her.
"President, have the enlistment procedures been completed?" Miles looked at the president's lady standing next to the airship.
Having previously applied for retirement and been approved, he no longer has the identity of a hunter in the strict sense, and it is illegal to participate in hunting activities.
Although no one will pursue this under the current situation, he has always paid attention to these rules.
"certainly."
Ms. President smiled and handed a very old hunter's notebook to Miles, "If everyone followed the rules like you, I wouldn't have to worry so much.
Mr. Miles, after this incident, have you considered coming back as an instructor? Today’s young hunters really lack ‘legal awareness’. "
“The old man is just superstitious.” Ted muttered, earning a kick from Miles.
President Fan Ti didn’t bother too much about this matter. She looked at everyone and asked, “Everyone, are you ready?
Just confirm the weapons and equipment. Various props, medicines, and ammunition supplies have been transported to the fortress warehouse by the transportation team. You can pick them up before the battle begins. "
Everyone checked the equipment one last time.
Gordon's "cautious" behavior with two big swords was also appreciated by Miles.
Gordon then noticed that the latter also brought two pairs of crossbows, a pair of Velociraptor heavy crossbow night cannon [Black Wind], and a pair of light crossbows capable of rapid-firing flame bombs and armored dragon grenades.
He also brought a lot of crossbow shells, and there were obviously many in the warehouse of the fortress.
No wonder that guy Ancil always likes to take two sets of crossbows and a lot of crossbow shells on the road. It turns out he learned it from Mr. Miles.
Hunters who took a moment to confirm that there was no problem with their equipment boarded the airship one after another.
The president’s lady led the guild staff and waiters around her and bowed.
“Everyone, the safety of Minagald is entrusted to you.”
The empty boat shuttled through the night, with the hazy mountains below.
The Xiuret area has a typical hilly landscape. Countless monsters inhabit the undulating forest hills. Traveling by land is not only troublesome, but also dangerous. Without the **** of hunters, it is easy to be attacked.
In comparison, airships flying at an altitude of two to three thousand meters are fast and convenient, and are much safer.
Only a few monsters, such as fire dragons and other flying dragons, can threaten airships at this altitude.
Hence, airship routes generally bypass the territory of the flying dragons to reduce risks.
In addition, flying at night is also a good way to reduce the probability of being attacked.
Most flying dragon species, including fire dragons, are not purely diurnal or nocturnal creatures, but most of their hunting behavior occurs during the day.
After all, it is not easy to spot prey on the ground from thousands of meters high in the dark night.
Therefore, airships flying at high altitudes at night are generally very safe, but this situation is not absolute.
Especially now that Laoshanlong appears and the entire ecological circle in the northern part of Shuretson Hills is disturbed.
"Meow?"
Pork Chop, who was lying on the side of the boat blowing the wind, suddenly pricked up his ears. After listening carefully for a few seconds, he screamed, "A flying dragon is approaching, Meow!"
Hunters who were resting or chatting suddenly became nervous. They rushed onto the deck with weapons on their backs.
A red shadow passed between the clouds.
It has obviously discovered the location of the airship and is wandering around vigilantly, obviously wary of the huge airbag of the airship.
After all, in nature, body size and strength are most often directly proportional.
“It’s a fire dragon.”
Yamos put down the portable telescope with an ugly expression on his face, "The fire dragon's territorial awareness is too strong. Even if it is not for prey, there is a high probability that it will launch an attack."
The hunters looked at each other.
For any of them, the Fire Dragon, known as the "King of the Sky", is not a difficult opponent.
But that presupposes that it is on earth.
But in high altitude and on an airship, it is difficult for them to display their strength.
“Go find a rope!” Heineye yelled at the pale-faced flight attendant, then cursed and pulled out her horned dragon shield axe, “I’m going to jump out and give it an axe!”
"Be calm." Miles walked out of the cabin with a calm expression.
Set up the heavy crossbow and pull the crossbow bolt.
“I’ve told you guys a long time ago to be cautious and make all preparations in advance, but you still think it’s useless for me to carry those crossbow shells with me? This will come in handy.”
"boom!"
