Chapter 248 The belated monsoon, emergency meeting


Chapter 248 Belated Monsoon, Emergency Meeting

Guildmaster Lockark organized a meeting.

Participants include the captain of the ship, anthropologists from the Wang Li Paleontology Scribes Team, local dragon researchers from the Ancient Dragon Observation Bureau, the person in charge of the city guerrillas, and citizen representatives, etc.

Due to his higher level as a hunter, Gordon was also involved as an important combat force in the attacking team.

The guild leader no longer smiles as usual, and the narrow corners of his eyes even give people a "sharp" feeling.

Ai Xia, who brought tea, could not attract his attention.

He got straight to the point, "In previous years, the monsoon would come mostly from mid to mid-to-late October, and rarely in late October.

But now it's November, and the monsoon still hasn't come. Come, what do you think?”

The citizen representative is a potbellied spice merchant.

He stroked his meticulously combed beard, and there seemed to be some disapproval in his eyes.

In his opinion, the guild leader is making a fuss out of a molehill. How early or late the monsoon will come is decided by God, so what does it matter?

He also wished that the monsoon would come a few days later so that the harvest festival could be extended for a while longer.

There are many people, it is lively, and business is easy to do. How good is it?

As for Fengshanlong, will it become more powerful as the monsoon comes a few days later? It's been fine for so many years, what's there to worry about?

Of course, he would not dare to say these words in front of the guild leader.

Businessmen with a little respect from Lockak all know the "power" of this little president in trade.

If you offend him, your chamber of commerce can prepare to close down.

The two scholars from the Scribes Team and the Gulong Observation Bureau looked much more serious.

“Theoretically, occasional monsoon delays are not uncommon, but it is difficult for us to determine whether this climate anomaly will have a more direct and serious impact.”

Anthropologist Frowning, he said: "After all, this is not an ordinary monsoon, but a monsoon that comes with the Fengshan Dragon."

The Dragon Tribe scholar nodded in agreement, "Whether Fengshan Dragon comes with the monsoon, or whether the existence of Fengshan Dragon brings the monsoon, this point has not yet been determined.

If it is the latter, it means Fengshan Dragon There is an abnormality in the migration, and this is not something that can be summed up simply by saying, "The monsoon is late."

Wearing a helmet, Gordon crossed his arms and nodded slowly.

Although he didn't know why he nodded.

I just felt that the two old scholars seemed to have said something very important, but they seemed to have said nothing

At this time, the captain of the ship spoke, "We have gone through all the records and information left by the previous captains of the sand ship group.

In the past two hundred years, the monsoon, or the peak of the mountain, has arrived. The situation that only occurred in November has only occurred once, and that was one hundred and twenty or thirty years ago."

"So what happened then?" the anthropologist asked eagerly.

The captain of the ship took out a notebook with aging paper and said helplessly: "I don't know, the key pages are damaged and lost, and we don't even know the specific year.

Generally The time was determined by searching through the succession documents of previous ship captains in the warehouse.”

The guild leader added: "Moreover, from the few words at the end of the note, we learned that the casualties of the Sandy Ship Group were very serious that year.

This is also one of the main reasons why the ship leader and I felt nervous. ”

“Is it information from more than a hundred years ago? It’s too old.”

The Draconian scholar frowned, "The management of Lockak was chaotic in the past, and it is difficult to retain information for such a long time. However, there may be archives in the headquarters of East Doruma and the archives of the Great Library.

Have you sent a letter to assist in the investigation? ”

"Of course."

The guild leader nodded and said: "After confirming the approximate age of the notes yesterday, the letter was already sent using a peregrine falcon. The journey is long and it may take a few days before there is a response."< br>
Anthropologists from the Scriveners Team continued: “Although there is little hope, the Scriveners will still try their best to search for past documents. Please submit the information, hoping to get some clues."

"Please."

The guild leader turned to look at the dragon scholars from the Ancient Dragon Observation Bureau, "I hope you can send out all the people. The observation balloon, with Lockak as the center, spreads out to look for possible anomalies

Once you find something, report it immediately with a peregrine falcon. ”

Theoretically, the Ancient Dragon Observation Bureau and the Hunter Guild are equal organizations, and the former does not need to obey the instructions of the latter.

But the dragon tribe scholar knew that now was not the time to care about this. He nodded his chin, He happily agreed: "I will arrange it. "

Gordon raised his hand at this time.

"I have a suggestion. Since the situation is serious, should the upper-level hunters be organized, just in case? ”

Hearing this, the guild leader knocked on his forehead, "That's right, I almost forgot about them. Ai Xia, go find the waiter girls to check which high-ranking hunters are still in Lockark."

"Okay, President." Miss Ai Xia, who was standing by the table like a secretary, hurriedly left.

"Is martial law necessary in the city?" the leader of the Walled City guerrillas asked, carrying a pair of swords and looking at the black-faced man who looked like a sand bandit.

"No need." The guild leader immediately shook his head, "Don't cause panic. When citizens, tourists and businessmen are fleeing in chaos, it is the most dangerous for the Fengshan Dragon to attack.

But be prepared at any time. Organize preparations to avoid danger. The giant rock platform is strong enough. As long as the citizens hide in the city, they will not be in danger.”

"Understood."

After discussing a few more key points in organizing hedging, Ai Xia trotted back.

She reported to the president: "Maridan, the seven-star sledgehammer, Abel, the six-star bow hunter, and Hisham, the six-star spear user, are currently in the city of Loklak."< br>
Gordon grinned.

Good guy, a female Seven Star Sledgehammer is really rare. I don’t know what kind of strong female warrior she is.

"Send someone to find them and ask them to come over as soon as possible." The guild leader tilted his head and ordered.

"Okay." Ai Xia trotted away again.

"Should I incorporate them into the sand fleet and participate in the subsequent offensive?" The guild leader looked at the captain of the fleet, "Don't consider the issue of 'cost-effectiveness', money is a trivial matter right now."

——He is not good at commanding battles, and the guild leader does not want to make random decisions.

The captain hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "No, joining the sand fleet requires getting used to it. Gordon Hayata and the others also trained for less than half a month before they were qualified.

Maridan has been in the fleet, so it's okay.

But the heavy crossbows, artillery and dragon guns of the Sandy Ship Group are the main weapons. Their addition will not significantly improve the strength of the ship group.

It’s better”

“If you have any ideas, just say so. "

"I suggest that the upper-level hunters can join in the preliminary reconnaissance work. I will send three of the fastest sand boats to take them to the direction where the Fengshan Dragon may attack to conduct active reconnaissance.

Once you find anything, report back immediately.

Of course, the hot air balloons of the Gulong Observation Bureau are also doing similar work, but the perspectives from the air and on the ground are different, which may make up for the loopholes.

Using high-level hunters in this way may be a waste of their combat power, but the opponent is an ancient dragon, and ordinary hunters may not be qualified for reconnaissance work. "

"Then do as you say! "The guild leader said. (End of this chapter)
