Chapter 1303: Blame It on Others

(There was a car accident - five consecutive high-speed rear-end collisions, and I was the third one. Fortunately, I was fine, but I was numb)

Gordon was serious about wanting to practice alone for a period of time.

Once he makes up his mind, almost no one can change it.

Of course, he won't abandon everything and leave just as he wants.

After telling his companions about this, he wrote a letter to the Commander-in-Chief, explaining his plan to seek a breakthrough in willpower through spiritual practice.

I hope that the responsibilities of Commander Yuechen will be handed over to Ancier for the time being.

When reading this letter, the Commander-in-Chief's expression was very subtle.

This development was all too familiar. It was the same situation between him and the grand leader back then. The grand leader said he wanted to achieve a breakthrough in cultivation or something, so he "temporarily" entrusted him with the management of the investigation team.

Then this support lasted most of my life.

Decades later, he became the commander-in-chief of the investigation team, but the grand leader was still running around outside all day long.

Wouldn't that guy Gordon be like this?

Shouldn't it be possible? After all, he is a man with a wife and children, not like some old bachelor.

After careful consideration, the commander-in-chief agreed to Gordon's request.

At the moment when the Ice Dragon was dealt with, the investigation team had no particularly urgent matters.

The investigation into the mysterious singing and geological changes has been ongoing, but there is currently no clue. We are still in the stage of continuously accumulating intelligence and information.

It just so happened that there were two investigative tasks that were difficult for ordinary hunters or even high-level hunters to be confident about, so they were given to Gordon as training subjects given to him.

Thinking of this, the Commander-in-Chief immediately stopped worrying.

Give the reply to the messenger along with a promotion document sent from the headquarters of the Old Continental Guild.

Then he continued to work at his desk and deal with the complicated tasks that seemed to be endless.

"Ha! The Commander-in-Chief agrees!"

Gordon shook the letter in his hand, and then slapped the letter on Ancier's chest, "From today on, you are the commander of Yuechen Stronghold!"

Anxier had an "I don't believe it" expression on his face. He took the reply and glanced at it quickly, his expression getting darker and darker.

He gritted his teeth and emphasized, "He is the 'temporary' commander!"

Gordon shrugged, his shoulders felt really relaxed today.

An Xil took a deep breath and adjusted his mood, "I will be your replacement for a month at most, if you haven't come back after one month.

Haha, you can give it a try. "

"I'll try my best, I'll try my best." Facing Ancil's threat, Gordon smiled dryly.

The guy in front of you is very vindictive. It's best to take the threats he says seriously.

Anxier rubbed the corners of his eyes. Since the matter had become an established fact, any more complaints would be just a waste of time.

"By the way, what was sent by the courier along with the reply was Hayata's promotion document, right?"

"Really?" Gordon glanced at the metal mailbox with sealing wax in his hand, "It should be an application submitted by the Commander-in-Chief to Dondoruma after hunting Behemoth.

Counting the time on the way back and forth, it’s almost the same. "

As for the outcome of the promotion application, there is no suspense.

If the application is not approved at the guild headquarters, only a simple letter will be sent instead of a delicate and ornate metal mailbox with the guild's coat of arms stamped on the opening like now.

That is the wax stamp specially used by the great elder.

They have received similar documents more than once and will not admit their mistakes.

Logically speaking, this promotion document should be delivered directly to Hayata by a messenger.

But the messenger was lazy, and it was the same for Gordon anyway.

After receiving the letter, "Commander Yuechen" and "Interim Commander Yuechen" went to the headquarters together to hand over some work.

After completing the handover, Ancil discovered that Gordon, the Moon Commander, was much more "foolish" than he thought.

Most of the work that should have been done by Gordon himself was left to the supply squad leader. His role in the headquarters was more like a mascot.

Only during important meetings will some necessary decisions be made.

Anhil suddenly felt much more relaxed.

Is this the job of Commander Yuechen? Okay then, just give more supplements to the supplies squad leader later.

They both felt relaxed and returned home.

Finding that Hayata and Muti were not at home, Gordon turned around and went to Anshir's house next door.

Sure enough, they are all here.

Hayata, Gail, Mrs. Sterling, and Fufu were playing with little Muti, acting like a girl.

Anhir sat far away alone, looking out of place.

Gordon walked up to Hayata, hid his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "I brought you a gift."

Before Hayata said anything, Gale, who was slumped on the sofa, sat up straight and said, "Yo? What is this? Come out and show it to everyone."

Facing everyone's expectant eyes, Gordon, who originally planned to make a little joke, touched his nose.

He took out the mailbox containing the promotion document and handed it to Hayata.

Hayata took it with some surprise, but Gale rolled his eyes fiercely, "Nima's, can this be considered a gift? This is at most a gift from the great elder, right?

But it is indeed worth celebrating. Gordon, please treat me, hehehe! "

"Okay." Gordon reluctantly accepted the blackmail.

Hayata carefully opened the mailbox and took out the document. As they thought, it was an official document promoting Hayata to an eight-star hunter.

Although there won't be a significant difference between an eight-star hunter and a seven-star hunter in terms of treatment and other aspects, this represents a kind of recognition.

It also means that Feng Ying, who is still a seven-star hunter, will once again become the lowest-level hunter in the team.

"You'll have to think hard this time." Mrs. Sterling smiled and raised the red teacup in her hand, "I've already got some ideas for the design of this set of armor, just consider it my gift."

The in-depth dissection of the Ice Curse Dragon is still going on, but the materials such as scales, shells, and wing membranes have basically been settled.

As the main force in hunting Ice Curse Dragons, the Silver Edge team is naturally allocated the most materials. If they are concentrated, it is more than enough to build a set of armor, and even more weapons.

It is obviously not appropriate to leave such excellent materials in the storage box to accumulate dust.

Even though it has not been long since the last time the four Silver Edge members changed their clothes, there is no need to replace new equipment for the time being, but they still plan to make a set, which will always come in handy.

As for who this set of equipment is for, it depends on the characteristics of the material.

After the second-term group leader identified it, he said that the material of the Ice Curse Dragon has the characteristic of accumulating cold air.

After being made into protective gear, the accumulated cold air can be injected into the weapon and released at the moment of the hunter's attack, causing huge damage.

In other words, protective gear made of Ice Curse Dragon materials should be quite suitable for the so-called "sword-drawing style".

An Xier and Feng Ying expressed their withdrawal at the time. It is not uncommon for katana users and great sword users who like to use the sword-drawing style, but it is too strange to draw the sword with a shield axe and a heavy crossbow.

So the choice fell on Gordon and Hayata.

Both of them planned to let the other use it.

Hayata hoped that Gordon would replace the [Crazy Mark] with new equipment. After all, that set of protective gear was too evil, and she didn't want Gordon to become more and more crazy.

Gordon thought that as the main vanguard of the team, the guerrilla-style sword-drawing style was not suitable for him. However, Hayata's positioning and the sword skills he practiced were highly compatible with the sword-drawing style.

Moreover, he was reluctant to give up the series of protections of [Crazy Mark] that were extremely suitable for greatsword users.

The two argued for several days, and in the end, Hayata still couldn't beat Gordon.

The new armor made of ice dragon materials will be used by Hayata.

As for the regenerated short and thick ice blade tail, it will be matched with other materials to make a brand new greatsword for Gordon.

Ps.

The ice porridge suit is too weird for a muscle man like Gordon to wear. Feng Ying is not right in all aspects. Anxiel is quite suitable in terms of image, but the face-crawling bug fighting style of the cold heavy crossbow, emmm, seems to be only suitable for Hayata.

As for the weapons of the ice dragon, they are all fake by the standards in the game, but Gordon still needs a greatsword with attributes. As for the reason, everyone knows.
