Chapter 1121 Cloak! Need a Cloak!
Compared with the large-scale operation to besiege the Molten Dragon, this large-scale reconnaissance activity does not require "so much" supplies, but that is only relatively speaking. The number of personnel is not less at all.
Four Silver Edges, three Alcohols, Gale, Aiden, a total of nine upper hunters, plus ten elite hunters, the number of hunters alone is nearly 20.
Including the compilers, the total number will be around 30.
Counting all kinds of ammunition, equipment, baggage, cats and dogs, and pterosaurs. If the investigation team had not rebuilt the cargo airship in advance, how to transport these personnel and materials to the north of the continent would be a big project.
Even so, it is obviously inappropriate to "throw" so many people and materials all at once into the desolate and dangerous northern mountainous area.
Not to mention anything else, the cargo airship's carrying capacity is probably overloaded.
Therefore, according to the plan, the cargo airship will set off first, carrying baggage and some personnel to the research base on the Coral Plateau, and establish a material relay point there.
The rest of the personnel will go there in separate pterosaurs, and after regrouping at the research base, they will set off again.
A second relay camp will be established in the safer area outside the northern mountainous area, close to the Coral Plateau.
This camp will be the base camp for their investigation activities for the next period of time.
The hunters and compilers will regroup there and investigate various suspicious areas in the northern mountainous area.
For this reconnaissance activity, the leader of the supply team was really busy in the two days before the hunters set off.
The astonishing number of diffusion bombs and armor-piercing grenades on the supply list made her want to pinch Anxier's neck and ask, are you going to blow up a mountain?
Anxier certainly didn't plan to blow up a mountain, but the ammunition he requested was indeed calculated according to the standard of blowing an ancient dragon species into ash.
The diffusion heavy crossbow team, which had been prepared for a long time, will join this mission.
The heavy crossbow users, including Aiden, will act in their respective teams.
Once there is a need to engage in direct combat with the ancient dragon, they will be assembled, and with the Molten Mountain Dragon Heavy Cannon's superb ammunition delivery capability, they will provide the main combat team with indiscriminate firepower support.
The swordsmen led by Gordon cursed.
A diffusion heavy crossbow is scary enough, and you still want a team?
He has seen the power of Lv3 diffusion bombs. A single shot is not worse than a barrel bomb. A full-strength team of four can attack twelve bombs in one wave.
It is unknown whether the monster will die, but the swordsmen are definitely gone.
Facing the black faces of the swordsmen, Anshil repeatedly assured that all members of the heavy crossbow team have undergone rigorous training and will never fire randomly unless the timing is perfect.
However, when the monster falls to the ground, you still have to run away quickly.
The day of departure.
The fully armed hunters gathered on the first platform near the dock and gathered around Gordon and others.
As for the compilers, they had set off one day in advance with the cargo airship, and it is estimated that they have already approached the Grand Canyon.
Gordon, the leader of the investigation team, was emphasizing something to the young hunters.
The specific content was nothing more than "be careful, be careful", "check your equipment repeatedly", "don't underestimate any monsters".
Everyone had heard similar words from their teachers and seniors, but under the watchful eyes of Gordon and his men, no one dared to slack off.
Feng Ying was an exception. Her eyes were out of focus and she quietly moved her feet, trying to move away from Gordon and his men, but her eyes did not leave their equipment.
Master Gordon's [Greed] and the golden inscription sword, sister Hayata's [Death Claw] and the dragon sword [Red Lotus].
Ansir's [Ark] and [Famine] and the fierce moment [Time Rain] and [Reign of Tremor] (Giant Halberd Dragon Heavy Crossbow), why did this guy carry three weapons? !
The three brothers and sisters of Alcohol were even more powerful. They wore the Explosive Scale Dragon suit as standard equipment. As long as they were not in a state of alcoholism, they were really imposing.
Gale can be ignored, it's an eyesore.
Look at the seniors' shiny high-end equipment inlaid with various decorative beads, and then look at her own rustic defense team, which is a bit worn out and even patched.
They are all upper hunters, but their styles are different!
She is determined that if she has the chance this time, she must get an ancient dragon and customize a set of high-quality armor.
The quality of the defense team is not bad, but they are dressed like trash.
Feng Ying moved secretly inch by inch, gradually moving away from the upper hunters with luxurious equipment, and blending into the young hunters of the fifth group who were surrounded.
There are still several defense teams here, such as Aiden, and the equipment of others is not "that" dazzling.
Comfortable.
Hayata glanced at Feng Ying, thinking that as the leader of the fifth group, she wanted to stand with the hunters of the same period, and nodded with relief.
An Xier snorted coldly, he knew what Feng Ying was thinking.
This guy sneaked into his house yesterday and found his mother, Mrs. Sterling, asking her to help design a set of equipment appearance in advance.
There are many requirements, such as "It should be low-key at first glance, but it should make people feel awesome at second glance", "Mystery! It should be mysterious!" "Can you add a cape or a streamer? I like that!".
Mrs. Sterling happily took note, but Anshil wanted to beat her up. Not to mention that the materials have not been obtained yet, and you don’t even know who the opponent is, and you are imagining the new equipment appearance here?
His mother is full of energy.
In recent days, in addition to taking care of her granddaughter Fufu, Mrs. Sterling has found a new meaning in life.
She joined the investigation team with the empty title of "fashion design consultant" and came to the New World. She thought that these "fashion" skills would not be useful.
But since Zhucha asked her to help design the Molten Mountain Totoro Armor, Mrs. Sterling opened the door to a new world.
The processing house is good at designing the appearance of equipment, but the leaders of the second phase of the group are pursuing practicality after all, and beauty is an "extra burden".
If you have the energy to make it look good, make it look good. If you don't have the energy, just make do with it. So occasionally some strange equipment will be produced, which makes hunters itch.
And this is exactly what Mrs. Sterling is good at. After participating in the design of several sets of cat armor and casual clothes, she began to take over the appearance design of hunter armor.
The craftsmen in the processing house will start from practicality and give a general design framework, and Mrs. Sterling will adjust the details on this basis to make the equipment beautiful.
The final result was well received by hunters. For details, please refer to the difference between the ore suit and the cast iron suit.
As for Feng Ying, who came to ask for appearance requirements without even having the materials, she thought it was a recognition.
The only thing that made her regretful was that her daughter-in-law was never captured by her "aesthetics".
The mix of cat head heavy armor and big wool pants made her dizzy. Sooner or later, she would have to find a chance to replace that damn thing.
Thinking of her mother's complaints, An Xier retracted her sight and said to Gordon beside her: "It's almost time."
Gordon, who was still unsatisfied, smacked his lips. It must be said that preaching is addictive.
"Let's check our equipment for the last time and set off!"
