Chapter 871: Gathering in Battle Street
The third day after the battle meeting.
The evacuation of East Doruma has been completed. Whether it is the residential area or the prosperous trading street, even the famous East Doruma Port in the mainland is silent.
Walking on the deserted street, a diabolo basket was blown by the wind and rolled past the hunters. Feng Ying stretched out her foot and stepped on it, muttering, "It has become a ghost town."
< br>Anhil glanced at her, "This means the evacuation is complete, which is a good thing."
"The guild suddenly ordered us hunters who participated in the war to gather in Battle Street. There should be news." Gordon turned his head and urged, "Let's go faster."
"Huh? ! Is Styracosaurus here now? How sudden!" Feng Ying subconsciously wanted to check the items in the prop bag.
Hayata knew that Feng Ying had no experience in participating in large-scale defense operations, so he explained: "No, if the Styracosaurus attacks, it will not send someone to notify the gathering, but directly sound the alarm.
If you want to gather, you should It’s time to confirm the whereabouts of Styracosaurus, so let’s enter the battle street in advance and prepare for the battle.”
“So that’s it.” Feng Ying kicked the bamboo basket away, “Then let’s go. What are you in such a hurry for?”
Gordon bared his teeth at her, "It's convenient to grab a better quality tent."
"That's the reason"
Through the residential area and the trade area at the foot of the mountain, Gordon and the others entered Battle Street.
The so-called Battle Street is actually a very large urn city, covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters.
The structure of the city wall here is very special. It is not a vertical wall, but a stepped wall.
Each floor is nearly 20 meters high, and the total height of the three floors is more than 50 meters. Even a super giant ancient dragon like Laoshanlong cannot climb out of the urn city.
A large number of artillery and heavy crossbows are installed on these layered city walls. Hunters can launch three-dimensional attacks on attackers from all directions.
The dragon-killing cannon, which is called "the decisive weapon against ancient dragons" by the master craftsman, is installed on the highest level of the city wall.
The construction cost of this kind of stepped city wall is several times that of an ordinary city wall, and Dongdoruma relies on this indestructible battle street to survive countless ancient dragon attacks.
The outer city wall is the only exception.
This wall that separates the battle street from the outside of the city is a traditional vertical structure. Although it is also strong at the fortress level and cannot be broken by ordinary monsters, it is slightly weak against the ancient dragon's attack.
It was this city wall that the rusty steel dragon destroyed.
Land monsters such as Lao Shanlong would not even be "qualified" to enter the battle street if they did not tear down this wall.
It is said that this design also has profound meaning. After all, the purpose of establishing the battle street in East Doruma is to repel monsters, not to hunt down ancient dragons behind closed doors.
Trapped animals with no escape route are the most dangerous.
If the attacker is afraid, he can turn around and leave at any time.
Those who know the history of Dongdoruma will know that this outer city wall has been rebuilt eight times if not ten times.
Gordon couldn't help but murmur in his heart as he looked at the outer city wall that had just been rebuilt with the efforts of the craftsmen working overtime.
If Styracosaurus attacks, this city wall will most likely not be able to be saved. It’s really hard on them
“Brother Gordon! This way, this way!”
< br>
Hearing someone calling him, Gordon turned around and saw Aiden, the newcomer with pen, trotting all the way to them.
“The temporary camp is over there, and the people have almost arrived!”
They followed Aiden to the so-called temporary camp, and the conditions were slightly better than Gordon imagined, at least Not in the open air, but in some rooms built inside the walls of Battle Street.
There is also a public storage box, which is already full of various supplies and can be freely accessed after the battle begins.
Gordon glanced at the room and stopped paying attention.
The idea of grabbing a tent before was just a joke with Feng Ying. It was only for a few days anyway. He didn't care about the living environment, as long as it was enough to lie down.
Except Ancil unloaded a lot of ammunition boxes from Gale, the others didn't have any luggage to put, so Gordon asked Aiden to take them to where the hunters gathered.
The guild informed them to come and gather. There should be a group meeting or announcement.
As he expected, there were already more than thirty hunters gathered on the city wall where the dragon-killing cannon was set up, and the number was still increasing.
Gordon noticed that Master and Julius were there, and walked through the crowd towards them.
"Ahem, here we come." The master smiled and nodded to Gordon and the others, "The investigation team sent by the guild has confirmed the location of Styracosaurus and arranged for hunting cats to take turns monitoring it.
The scholars of Gulong Observation Bureau judged that the next attack will happen soon."
Gordon nodded. He was not surprised by this result. Otherwise, what would they do together?
"Master, are you in charge of commanding this defense battle?"
"It's not really a command, cough cough cough."
Perhaps because he has been busy recently, the former legendary hunter is not in good physical condition.
He stooped and coughed for a while before continuing: "I can only say that I have to convey the general process, and the real on-the-spot judgment depends on you."
"Really, you still insist on running out even though you are like this, and you still think that you are the nine-star hunter who singled out the ancient dragon?
Don't you have two great disciples? Don't you trust me? To them?" Hilda frowned and approached.
Her words were a bit harsh, but the master still smiled, "As expected of someone who has been an instructor for so many years, he is so strict."
Hilda gritted her teeth.
They are two people of the same generation. As her senior, Campbell has always been like this since she was young. She would smile when she scolded him.
After teasing Hilda, Master Jiang's expression became more serious, "Ahem. Just in time, all three of your teams have arrived. Let me talk to you guys first.
You also know that to deal with an opponent like Styracosaurus, the more hunters you have, the better.
After discussion, the guild decided that your three teams of top hunters will be the main force to stop Styracosaurus.
< br>
That is, the Silver Edge Hunting Group, the Pen Head Hunting Group, and the ‘Training Camp Hunting Group’. "
Hilda rolled her eyes, seemingly dissatisfied with the strange team name "Training Camp Hunting Team", but from a certain point of view, this team name fits the situation.
In addition to her, there are three other people in this team, namely the six-star light crossbowman Gale, the six-star hunting flute user Feidi, and the eight-star gun user Altman.
Gail and Feidi are both excellent hunters who came out of the East Doruma Hunter Training Camp, and Altman, like Hilda, is an instructor in the hunter training camp
Unlike Silverbian. , a temporary hunting group like Bitou often has hidden dangers, such as differences in actions and disputes over command authority.
The training camp squad obviously doesn't have such troubles.
Needless to mention Feddy, a gentle and caring family man, even a rebellious and dirty-mouthed guy like Gale looked like a frightened Marutori in front of the two old instructors. of.
Don’t dare to be disobedient.
At the call of their respective captains, three teams, eleven high-ranking hunters, plus a sunny and cheerful boy who had sneaked in, gathered around Master Campbell.
Feng Ying smiled happily.
Yay! Finally he is not the one who sneaked in!
However, while smiling, her expression froze, and a stern gaze with a scrutinizing look swept across her body.
Feng Ying swallowed and secretly looked back along the line of sight.
Oh my god! Who is this gunslinger next to Aunt Hilda? Why is he taller than Master Gordon? ! (End of this chapter)
