Chapter 1353 Return and Support
Hayata returned home, pulled out her dragon sword [Red Lotus], and made several gestures.
When the sword was drawn, the sharp metal sound of the blade and scabbard, and the "whoosh" sound of the inverted-tooth blade breaking through the wind, made Gordon's scalp numb.
For a moment, he suspected that Hayata was really going to draw his sword and kill him.
Fortunately, Hayata was not so crazy, and he raised his hands towards Ge with a sneer on his face. After Den snorted, she put down the sword flatly.
Gordon walked over knowingly and put his palm on the sword.
Nothing happened.
Hayata breathed a sigh of relief and was about to put away the weapon.
Gordon glanced at her, put his palm on the blade of the sword, and touched it lightly.
The sharp blade easily broke through the calluses and skin between his palms, and blood flowed out, staining the blade of the Dragon Sword [Red Lotus] red.
Hayata was startled, and quickly dropped the dragon sword, took out a handkerchief to help him hold the wound, and ran to the storage box to get the recovery medicine.
Gordon looked at the wound on his palm, and then looked at the still unresponsive Dragon Blade [Red Lotus].
He shook his palm and said, "It's okay."
"I know, I know, why don't you put pressure on the wound quickly!"
"Don't worry now. ?”
"Come on and apply some medicine to stop the bleeding first!"
"Did something like this happen last night?"
Beside the wine table, Feng Ying giggled, "Let me tell you, Even if scales grow, it’s not a bad thing. Maybe I won’t have to wear armor anymore!”
Hayata slapped her reproachfully.
Compared to Feng Ying’s laughter and laughter, An Xil looked much more serious.
He looked at Gordon and said: "Hayata's worry is correct. Pay more attention to your own condition, whether it is physical or psychological. If there is any abnormality, don't ignore it."
"Yes, yes, Got it.”
Gordon He agreed casually and changed the subject, "Do you have any plans during this vacation?"
After the mission of hunting the earth-crying dragon, the commander-in-chief promised the hunters a half-month vacation, which is not necessary. , they will not be assigned tasks.
To relieve the fatigue accumulated from the high-intensity investigation missions and battles in the past period.
Anhil thought for a while, "I don't have any plans for the time being. Just try to rest as much as possible. After a while, I will probably be busy again."
"What are you going to be busy with?" Gordon asked curiously.
Listening to Gordon's relaxed tone that had nothing to do with him, Ancier became angry. He said with a dark face: "Has someone forgotten that he left the task of managing the Yuechen stronghold to Me?”
“Ahem.” Gordon pretended not to hear, his expression serious. , "But if you say that, the investigation into the northeast of the mainland should also be put on the agenda."
"Northeast?" Feng Ying reacted for a while before remembering, "Ah! It means the ancient dragon A warning from a human being, Dragon King or something?”
"Keep your voice down." Gordon glared at her, and after confirming that there was no one at the next table, he continued:
"The ancient dragon people only mentioned that the Dragon King was about to awaken, but there was no The location was clearly stated, and the clue about 'northeast' was felt when it came into contact with the Mingbo Dragon.
The reaction of the Mingbo Dragon was also very intense at that time. That direction should be. There is something worth investigating."
"The Commander-in-Chief will arrange it after the holiday." Anhil took a sip of hot tea, "This matter will most likely fall on you in the end. After all, only you 'feel it'."
"Then I'll take a trip." Gordon was more positive. He was still keen on exploring the unknown.
Anhil nodded, "I went to Yuechen, and Gordon went to the northeast to investigate the unknown aura. Then there is a high probability that Hayata and Feng Ying will be left by the commander-in-chief to guard the stars.
Don't look ahead. The commander-in-chief looked very happy during the two-day celebration banquet, but he was actually very tense. He could be seen analyzing intelligence in the headquarters every day and night.
Ancient Dragon Police. The matter of the accusation put a lot of pressure on him, and"
Anhil was silent for several seconds before continuing: "A secret letter from the guild headquarters arrived. Just last night, it should be About the ancient dragon people’s warning.”
Feng Ying swallowed hard and asked, “How did you know?”
"The quick communication channel between the New World Investigation Team and the guild headquarters was established with the help of the Sterling Chamber of Commerce. How do you think I know?"
"Okay, what is written in the letter?"
".I told you it was a secret message. If I knew the content, An Ye would have come to my door." Anxier replied angrily, crossed his arms and continued:
“But I can make a rough guess. From the perspective of the guild’s senior management, they probably hope to withdraw part of the strength of the investigation team and return to the old continent to defend themselves.”
Gordon pondered, “That’s what I’m saying. Come on, it is true that the warning of the ancient dragon people did not specify whether it was the New World or the Old World, but only mentioned the unexplained "at the end"
There is also the title 'Dragon King', which can also match some taboo legends of the old continent."
"So, if I were a great elder, I would also feel that the warning of the ancient dragon people was For the Old World.
To put it bluntly, the New World Ancient Dragon Investigation Team is just a scientific research organization, and the mystery of the Ancient Dragon Crossing that was the purpose of its establishment has been solved.
Even if all operations are suspended and all personnel are withdrawn at the moment, it is just a pity. When the situation becomes stable in the future, the investigation activities can be restarted.
The Old Continent is the base camp of human civilization, with a population of hundreds of millions, and there is no room for loss. ”
"It's useless to withdraw. There are only so many of us here." Feng Ying muttered.
“The population is not large, but the quality of the hunter group is amazing. There are more than forty elite hunters with three, four and five stars. Even if we don’t count the older generation of sword masters, there are thirteen high-level hunters.
What’s even more rare is that all the top hunters in the investigation team have rich experience in fighting ancient dragons. There are no "newbies" in the rankings, all of them are seven-stars upwards
plus Hayata and I are two eight-stars, and Gordon is a nine-star who has reached the top.
Oh, yes, Ted's application for promotion to eight stars has been sent to the guild headquarters. There is no problem in passing the review based on his record.
With the exception of East Doruma, it is impossible for any big city in the Old Continent to assemble such a force. Do you still think it is useless to withdraw it? ”
“Huh? To put it this way, it is true that the strength of the investigation team is a bit exaggerated. "
"Listening to what you said, shouldn't we be ready to go back to the Old Continent in advance? Hayata asked with a frown.
Gordon waved his hand, "No need for now, the withdrawal of hundreds of people cannot be finalized with just one letter."
Even if the guild headquarters really sends a withdrawal order, the specific implementation will definitely have to wait until the investigation of the northeastern sea is completed. ”
"I think so too." Anhil nodded and said confidently: "But if you think so, your vacation may end early. The commander-in-chief may let you leave early to investigate the Northeastern sea."
Just as Anhir expected.
At noon that day, the commander-in-chief sent people to find Gordon and others and asked them to hurry to the headquarters.
In the headquarters, the commander-in-chief crossed his arms and looked serious.
“A letter was sent from the guild headquarters, the content is very simple.”
"Require us to withdraw to the Old Continent?" Ancier used a question, but his tone was quite certain.
The commander-in-chief's expression became a little strange, "I thought so when I received the letter, but...
The guild headquarters asked us to prepare to launch an investigation into the unknown aura in the northeast of the New World. , and also said that a team will be sent to the New World in the near future. "
" Huh? "(End of this chapter)
