Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter - Chapter 756

  Chapter 756 Coincidence? Multiple insurances?

   “Since the so-called ‘King’ is sleeping, it must not be an ordinary tower.”

  Professor pondered, “Assuming that the ‘king’ is a taboo-level existence, within the scope of the known world, there should be only three places that can be called ‘towers’, and there may be taboos living there.

  The ancient pyramid in the forest without water, the ancient pagoda deep in the sea of ​​trees in Hong Leong area, and the sky corridor on the isolated island in the far sea. “

“It can’t be the Sky Corridor.” The Great Elder shook his head, ruling out one of the possibilities, “The Sky Corridor is too big and too high, just the area barely confirmed by the investigation team has more than 500 floors, the overall height It is above a thousand floors.

   There are countless monsters with extremely high levels of danger living in it, and there are also ‘fanren’ guards.

  Even if the entire guild is used, regardless of casualties, it will take at least several generations of time to clear the monsters inside the corridor.

  If the ‘tower’ in Proverbs refers to the Celestial Portal, then this warning is meaningless, because it is simply an impossible task.

   And it should come directly to the old man, not to a few young hunters. “

   Listening to the exchange between the two old men, Gordon, who thought he knew a lot, couldn’t help opening his mouth.

   There are still ruins with more than a thousand floors in this world? Even if each floor is only three meters high, the height of the building must not exceed three thousand meters? ? !

  Professor continued: “The ancient pyramid without water and forest is also unlikely. The ruins are big enough, and it is not surprising that there are ancient dragons living there, but the territory where the taboo level exists will not be easily changed.

  Only last year did the archaeological team fully explore the ancient pyramids, and no particularly dangerous monsters were found. The Gulong Observation Bureau did not find any abnormalities in the area of ​​the forest without water. “

“From this point of view, the ancient pagoda in the depths of Fenglong’s mysterious sea of ​​trees should be the only ‘tower’ that meets the requirements.” The elder said slowly: “Our understanding of the sea of ​​trees and the remains of that ancient pagoda Knowledge is too vague.

  To be honest, no old man would find it strange that there is any old man sleeping there, maybe, it is time to send a team to check it out…”

   “You can’t go in!”

   “Guard! Stop it!”

  Sudden commotion came from outside the hall door, the Great Elder ignored these movements, frowning and thinking.

  The Silver Edge Hunting Group is good enough, but this matter may involve taboos, and he is a little worried about putting all the burden on a few young people.

   It is best to arrange an eight-star or even nine-star hunter leader to replace the five-star girl.

  The turmoil outside the main hall intensified, and there was even a fight, the Great Elder’s thoughts were interrupted.

  The grumpy old man raised his head with displeasure, and slammed the huge sword in his hand, which was thick and long like a doorpost.

“who!”

  The movement outside the door stopped for a while, and the intruder seemed to be caught, but its sharp voice continued to penetrate through the thick wooden door, “Save Meow! See the Great Elder! Please. Meow!”

  A guild staff hurried in, bowed nervously to the elder, and quickly reported: “A Meralu tried to break into the elder hall, but was stopped by the guild knight.”

   “Melaru?”

Under the dissatisfied glare of the great elder, the staff members trembled a little. He hesitated for half a second before continuing to explain: “It should be a hunter’s hunting partner. Its owner seems to be in danger, so it wants to ask you for help directly. .”

   This kind of thing happens occasionally.

  Under normal circumstances, it should go to the counter of the meeting place to issue an emergency rescue mission, but it often takes some time to find a hunter who is willing to undertake the rescue mission.

  Some people are anxious and cannot wait, and will try to find the guild supervisor or even the elder. If they agree to directly assign high-ranking hunters to rescue, the efficiency will be much higher.

  But high-level hunters are not firefighters after all. If they do this again and again, high-level hunters don’t have to do other things.

   Therefore, unless there are special circumstances, the elders rarely agree to directly dispatch high-ranking hunters to carry out the rescue, and regardless of whether they agree or not, the behavior of breaking into the hall of the elders will always be punished afterwards.

  The Great Elder whose thoughts were interrupted was obviously not in a good mood, but thinking that a hunter was in danger, he still softened his heart, “Let him come in and explain the situation.”

   Soon, a guild knight with fine scratches on his face came in carrying a gray-faced Meralu.

Under everyone’s gaze, the Meralu was obviously a little scared, but thinking of its master’s situation at this time, it mustered up its courage with a trembling beard, “We, our master has taken the task of hunting the velociraptor, meow, in Fenglong’s sea of ​​trees Meow, also. It is also a task to be promoted to five-star meow!

  We severely injured that that Xunlong cat, and then chased it into a super-large relic cat in the depths of the sea of ​​trees. As a result, a strange booming dragon rushed out, and killed Xunlong cat in one bite!

  The red booming dragon is so powerful meow, the roar is very loud, like a big barrel bomb meow! It will really explode meow!

  We can’t beat it at all, the master is stuck in the ruins, he stopped Honglong to create opportunities for us, let us run out and ask for help meow”

  Gordon and the others looked strange, as did the Great Elder and the professor.

  The girl in ancient costumes, the motto referring to ‘noisy’, the ruins of the ancient tower, the alien roaring dragon with a particularly loud roar, the hunter in distress, Meralu’s call for help

   This is really too coincidental, as if someone has carefully arranged all the links and stuck the time points together precisely.

   It is for the guild to send high-level hunters to the ancient tower.

   “You just said, a red booming dragon with a particularly loud roar?” Anshir confirmed to Meralu, “This is the first time I’ve heard that there are red booming dragons.”

   “Yes, yes, meow! We were the one who went to the counter to announce the rescue mission. They also said that they had never heard of the red booming dragon, and that it might be a subspecies or a rare species of meow that had never been seen before.

  So the task difficulty is set extremely high meow, seven, seven-star difficulty meow, there is no one who can help meow! We really have no choice but to come here, meow.” Melaru said aggrievedly.

  This situation is understandable.

   If a colleague is in distress, most hunters are still willing to help if they can, but if the danger is far beyond the scope of their own strength, then they can only say sorry.

   “How long ago did you encounter that red booming dragon?” Gordon asked Melaru suddenly.

“Three, late at night three days ago?” Melalu misunderstood Gordon’s meaning, and took the initiative to explain: “The Hong Leong area and the old continent are separated by sea, so our master rented an airship to go there. , we are also the ones who came here in that empty boat!

  Not long, meow, there must be someone to save meow! “

  Gordon looked up at the First Elder, “That mysterious girl also came to us in the middle of the night three days ago, almost at the same time.”

   “Do you think these two things are directly related?”

   “I think so.” Gordon looked at the elder, nodded and said: “There are so many coincidences that are abnormal, it would be more reasonable to say that they were arranged.

   On the one hand, it lured the hunters to encounter the red booming dragon, forcing them to ask for help. On the other hand, it gave us a warning, let us deal with the noisy monsters, and went in both directions.

  Although there are still many places where the logic is not smooth, she…it probably didn’t intend to arrange things so reasonably and perfectly. It is enough to fool us to solve the problem. “

  Hayata raised his hand and said: “My view is a bit different, this may not be ‘two-way travel’, but ‘double insurance’.

  Warning us in the image of a girl in ancient costumes, and inducing Meralu to send news of the existence of the Red Booming Dragon, the purpose is to let the guild dispatch forces to hunt the Red Booming Dragon.

  As long as one line succeeds, the goal is achieved. “

“But why is it so troublesome?” Fengying, who was a little dizzy after hearing it, looked confused, “Don’t those ‘people’ sometimes go to the meeting place to issue tasks? Why not just issue the task of hunting the red booming dragon?” ?”

   “It makes sense.” Anshir nodded, and then asked the elder, “So, is there such a task?”

  The Great Elder was stunned for a moment, and called a female dragonman clerk, “Go and check to see if there are any strange task documents, and focus on checking the task issuer, the girl in ancient costume or something.”

  The dragon-human clerk nodded and left quickly.

  Everyone comforted the impatient Meralu, and after waiting for less than half an hour, the clerk came back with two slips with a strange expression, and the guild director who also came with the same weird expression.
