Chapter 1043 Preparations Before Arrival
Gordon returned home.
Over the years, the originally empty house had many strange decorations.
For example, the big horn of the Nergigante hanging on the door lintel, the huge sea view fish tank that replaced a wall in the house, and the pink guide rabbit jumping around on the floor.
Raising his foot to push the guide rabbit running around his feet aside, Gordon came to the bed.
Preparing to throw himself on the bed as usual, stretching his arms and legs, and relaxing, the pork chop beside him also made a move to pounce.
Then they saw the note on the bed.
[You are not allowed to lie on the bed wearing armor, the sheets will be torn, and the same goes for pork chop. ]
"Uh."
"Uh meow"
Turning the note over, there is indeed something on the back.
[The commander-in-chief called a meeting temporarily. If you come back early, come to the headquarters. ]
Gordon sighed. If he had known not to take the cable car to save effort, he would have gone directly into the headquarters when passing by. Now he has to run back and forth.
"Let's go, let's go to the meeting first, maybe it's about the upcoming fifth group." Gordon rolled up the note and threw it into the trash can, and said to Pork Chop.
"Feng Ying is coming over meow? I haven't seen Amber for a long time meow!"
Gordon couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, "Yeah, I don't know how tall she has grown."
"No matter how tall she is, she won't be taller than you meow."
Trying to imagine Feng Ying who is more than two meters tall, Gordon curled his lips, and walked out of the room with the cat and headed to the headquarters.
There were many people gathered in the headquarters.
Including the heads of various departments, and the top hunters of the special investigation team.
When they arrived, the meeting was almost over. Gordon listened a few times and roughly knew that the commander-in-chief was organizing and arranging to welcome the members of the fifth group.
There are now more than two hundred people living in the Star Base, and the number of people in the fifth group alone exceeds 500, and the population has doubled directly.
Although the Star Base has begun to carry out various targeted expansions since a few years ago, such as the residential area, it has expanded a lot compared to when they first arrived.
There is also the Star Ship, which was originally idle as a "symbol", and was transformed into a meeting place and bar. The drunkards of the alcohol team wish they could live in it every day.
Even so, there are still many things that need to be refined, such as food reserves, clothing, medicine, and all aspects of life.
"In about three weeks, the new companions will arrive. All departments must be prepared. If there are any needs or difficulties, please submit them as soon as possible.
Above, adjourn the meeting." The commander-in-chief's conclusion was as straightforward as ever.
Hayata waved to Gordon, and Ansir and Gale were also beside her.
"I just heard the last point. Is there anything important?" Gordon asked.
"The matters directly related to us are mainly hunting meat, increasing food reserves, collecting leather and other miscellaneous matters.
In addition, it reminds us that after the new members arrive, we must help them integrate into the new environment as soon as possible." Hayata briefly summarized.
"I see, it's good that nothing is complicated."
Hayata couldn't help but laugh, "It's like this for us, the head of the supply team is about to explode."
Gordon couldn't help but look at the lady with dreadlocks. As Hayata said, her dark skin was a little blue.
"By the way, how many hunters are there in this batch?" Gordon asked curiously.
Ansel replied: "A total of 38, including 35 elites from three to five stars, and three top hunters in the recommended group."
"Feng Ying is one of the three in the recommended group, right?" Gordon sighed.
"There are really more people. Even if many hunters in the fourth group will return to the old continent after the fifth group arrives, the total number of hunters in the investigation group has steadily exceeded 50."
"Yes, but the proportion of top hunters in the fifth group is not high?" Gale commented casually.
Ansir glanced at her, "We can't compare with the special investigation team. We are a special case.
In general, after the arrival of the fifth group, we will have more than 50 elite hunters, and the number of top hunters will exceed 20%.
Even in East Doruma, it is difficult to gather more than 10 young and strong top hunters at a time. The great elders have also invested a lot of money."
"It feels like it's enough to fight a battle with a super-large ancient dragon." Gordon said with a smile.
"Don't say such unlucky words!"
The participants dispersed, and Hayata, who had almost finished talking about the business, looked around, "By the way, where is Fufu? Didn't she come with you?"
Hayata likes Fufu so much that he wants to hug her for a while every time he sees her.
Gail whistled like Ansir calling for a gale, and Ansir's face turned a little dark.
A few seconds later, Fufu chased the Puzhi pig and ran all the way over.
The face of the lively and clingy Puzhi pig revealed a human fatigue.
The pig even hid behind Gordon, and was also ridden by Fufu.
Hayata smiled and picked Fufu up from the pig, hugged her in her arms and kissed her for a long time. Fufu was also very close to her, hugged Hayata's neck and kissed her a few times.
Gordon half-jokingly said to Anxiel, "Why don't you let Fufu practice sword fighting with me? After all, she likes swords more than bows and crossbows!"
Anxiel's face became darker when he heard this.
This was the "trouble" that Galdo had caused when Fufu just turned one year old. She didn't know where she heard this ceremony from, and she got a bunch of messy things and put them on the ground, wanting to see what Fufu would catch.
Of course, there are also various hunter weapons.
Finally, Fufu climbed onto the big sword, and didn't even look at the light crossbow and heavy crossbow not far away.
Facing Gordon's joke, Anshil said "huh".
"It's too early for her to decide on her future career. Who says she must be a hunter? She can study art, immerse herself in literature, and do business in the future. There is no need to fight monsters."
Gordon shrugged and didn't continue on this topic.
He didn't have any impression of his parents, and it was difficult for him to empathize with the so-called "parents' expectations". He only knew that from the situation of the people around him, there were actually only a few children who could respond to or even perfectly meet their parents' expectations.
Hayata and Gail took Fufu away, and they didn't know where they were going. Maybe they were going to find Liefeng? Only Liefeng could withstand the tossing of the little guy and was still very happy.
Gordon wanted to see Fufu riding the Gale and then accidentally rolling down in a mess, but in the end he didn't have the nerve to follow. Just when he saw a craftsman in the processing house passing by, he remembered something he was quite concerned about.
"By the way, you went to the processing house quite frequently recently. Have you heard about the 'Defense Force Series'?"
"I've heard of it. It's a standard equipment that pursues versatility, easy-to-obtain materials, and can be mass-produced, right?"
"Yeah." Gordon pinched his chin, "In fact, the last time the second-term leader asked me to go over and try out the newly-made so-called 'Defense Force Flame Blade Greatsword'.
I took a look, isn't it the Explosion Blade?"
Ansel smiled when he heard it, "The weapons of the Defense Force series are basically derived from the well-received ore-based weapons, after all, ores are easy to get.
Just like the prototype of the Defense Force Greatsword is the Explosion Blade, and the prototype of the Tachi is the Iron Saw Blade.
As for the Defense Force suit, it has almost the same performance as the Male Rathalos suit. The lack of offensiveness is a disadvantage, But it has a higher defensive performance.
Oh, yes, it is the set worn by the guild knights guarding the Grand Elder's Palace.
I guess the commander-in-chief asked to build this batch of equipment in order to protect the newcomers to the new world to the greatest extent, especially the younger three-star hunters.
With this set of equipment, even if they encounter monsters far beyond their strength, they have a chance to escape unscathed.
Why, you also want to get a set? Your equipment, even the spare equipment, is much more advanced. "
"Not really, I'm just a little curious." Gordon smiled, "After hearing what you said, I suddenly felt that if some unlucky guy forgot to bring his equipment or lost it on the way, at least he would have a set of good equipment to wear. "
"Huh? How could there be such an unlucky person?"
