Chapter 551 Hayata Feels Wronged
The so-called tactics are simple to sum up. To put it bluntly, they are trying every means to hold off Laoshanlong and gain preparation time for Xinzhai.
Gordon couldn't help but feel curious, and he asked: "So what is the situation of the new village? Is it much better than the old village?"
The implication is that if the old village cannot stop the old mountain dragon, the new village will definitely be able to stop it?
"The old village has been built for more than two hundred years. Not counting this time, it has blocked the Laoshan Dragon four times and succeeded three times. In addition, it has also been attacked twice by other super giant ancient dragon-level monsters.
It is undoubtedly a reliable old thing, but it is technically outdated, and after being damaged and rebuilt several times, the strength of the main body of the city wall is far less than it used to be. "
Madam President unfolded another layout map, "This is a map of Xinzhai. Different from the nearly straight-line battle street in the old village, the battle street in Xinzhai is in a twisted polygonal shape, which can effectively slow down the pace of Laoshanlong.
The facility also adopts a variety of latest technologies, such as a multi-layered layout that can achieve three-dimensional strikes, a turret that uses rails to move, a mechanical dragon cannon with an amazing rate of fire, a more efficient transportation channel, and a rotating type specially reserved for the dragon-killing cannon. Giant turrets, blah blah blah
It's a pity that this last item is not used yet.
Although there is only one city wall, it is taller and stronger. The steel structure accounts for more than 20% of the wall, and it is equipped with four amazingly powerful new dragon-killing guns.
All in all, the reliability of the new village is far superior to that of the old village. If that guy showed up a few months later, we wouldn't need to mobilize as much troops as we do now.
If it were a few years later, when the dragon-killing cannon of the core facility was released, with its power and range, it would even be possible to blow the old mountain dragon home before it crossed the battle street and climbed to the city wall. "
There was a sense of resentment in the tone of the president's lady.
If it were not for the consideration of meticulous craftsmanship and cost saving, Xinzhai would have been completed long ago, but who would have expected that Laoshanlong, which migrates very regularly, would appear several years earlier?
"Does anyone else have questions?"
The hunters exchanged glances, and finally Xia Zuo, the dual-sword wielder, asked the final question, "When will we set off for the old village? We need some time to familiarize ourselves with the terrain and facilities."
"In just these two or three days, after the two companions from Bernard Village arrive, we will take the airship together and we will reach Jiuzhai in a few hours.
In the past few days, I hope you will try your best to stay on standby in the assembly hall. If you need any props or medicines, please report them to me as soon as possible, and I will order people to prepare them. "
"Understood." The top hunters responded in unison.
After leaving the president's office, the hunters did not disperse immediately.
Instead, under the leadership of Yamos and Xia Zuo, the two highest-level and most senior local hunters, they gathered for a meal to prepare to refine their tactics.
Considering that the discussion may involve confidentiality, they did not go to the pub area in the lobby, but asked the staff to help open a box.
In the quiet private room, there is indeed no lively atmosphere like the lobby tavern, and the drinking is not exciting, but everyone's purpose is not to drink and eat meat, so they just ordered a few set meals.
The waiter who came to help with ordering had just left, and before the door was fully closed, Yamos slapped Hayata on the back of the head.
The "snap" sound was quite strong.
"Ugh——" Hayata hugged her head, almost pulling off her forehead protector.
"It's none of your business, why did you come to the president's office?!"
Yamos's face was very ugly, "You are taking the lead when you shouldn't be. Now is the time when we are short of high-end combat power. You ran out at this time, didn't you come to the door for the president to catch a strong man?"
You are neither above nor below, but after getting equipped with high-level equipment, do you really think you are a high-level hunter? "
Gordon and Pork Chop shrank their necks. This was the first time they had seen Yamos so angry.
Hayata said aggrievedly: "It's not me who came here. Tiji saw my hunter level and mission records, ran to report to President Fan Ti, and then called me over."
Yamos gritted his teeth.
Although this was not Hayata's fault in a strict sense, he still couldn't help but get angry.
Originally, Hayata's task was quite easy. He just followed the other lower-level swordsmen to move the shells and kill a few more small monsters. But now, he has become the main force in blocking Laoshanlong.
"Didn't you write to me two weeks ago and say that you were practicing sword skills with Master Puxian and the others in Yanhuo Village? If you don't practice hard at such a good opportunity, why would you go back to Micheng to join in the fun?"
"Have you finished practicing?"
"Is there any end to training? Has your swordsmanship reached its peak?"
Hayata shut up obediently. She finally realized that Master Yamos was just looking for a reason to scold her.
Looking at the aggrieved Hayata, Gordon felt a little funny.
The reason for Yamos's anger was the same as that of Pine before.
The difference between the two is that Hayata turned around and ran away. Pine couldn't do anything to her, but Yamos could catch her and give her a slap on the head.
Looking at Yamos who kept scolding his apprentice, Xia Zuo smiled and gave some advice, "Okay, the little girl is almost taller than you, don't always lecture her like a child."
Yamos glared at Hayata, who subconsciously shrank towards Gordon.
Amos also wanted to teach Gordon a few words. The latter had received a lot of instruction from him during his two-star period and could barely be considered a half-student.
To be honest, he really didn't want these two young men, both under the age of twenty-five, to join the frontal battle against Lao Shanlong.
But he had no way to change the president's decision.
"Okay, Amos, I told you, don't treat them as children. When you are thirty, you may not be as strong as Gordon now."
Xia Zuo stopped Amos's "nagging". The fifty-year-old double-blade user looked at the protective gear on Gordon and said with a smile: "The little guy who was looking for people to get three-star tasks at that time can now hunt Tyrannosaurus Rex. It's only been a few years?"
"Hehe." Gordon laughed embarrassedly.
"By the way, Gordon."
Xia Zuo suddenly changed the subject, "Are you familiar with the two in Berna Village? The hunters of the Dragon Calendar Academy don't communicate with the outside world, and I have never met them."
Feddy, the hunting whistle user, shrugged, "Evelin and I don't either. Gordon, do you know them? How about talking about it?"
"I can't say I'm familiar with them. I was in Berna Village two months ago and had some exchanges with them. Senior Agashi is a six-star insect stick user with an air combat style, and Senior Chip is a seven-star axe user with a strong assault style."
Xia Zuo and the others nodded in understanding.
Only Ted looked confused. Well, Heniye's expression was also confused.
Gordon explained simply: "'Hunting style' is the inheritance among the hunters of Longli Academy. It can be understood as something like a school. The air combat style is more flexible, and the assault style is more radical and tough."
"Senior Gordon also went to practice these, it seems to be the courage style?" Hayata asked curiously.
"Courage style?" Xia Zuo frowned, "As far as I know, Longli Academy only has four styles: Guild, Assault, Bushido, and Air Combat?"
"Well, indeed, before I went there, I thought there was a courage style, but I found out that the founder of the courage style, Senior Bernard, had just started it, but unfortunately died. I tried to complete this style."
"Interesting, do you mind talking about it?" Amos was interested.
"The core is probably."
Gordon gave a general explanation, and Amos and Xia Zuo quickly extracted the key.
"Extracting a certain will, 'courage', well, a very precise direction, pretty good." Xia Zuo commented with a smile.
Amos also nodded, with a look of relief on his face, "Finding a balance between calmness and bravery, similar to the momentum of a katana user, but different, you have also walked your own way."
"Can I learn this, Senior Gordon!"
Hayata's eyes lit up, "This seems to be very suitable for me, with the Kamui Iai, it feels very strong!"
Amos's face darkened instantly, "No! You can't learn this now, didn't you hear Gordon say? 'Courage' is to be controlled with calmness and experience.
Experience accumulation is not enough, when the red blade is opened, do you really have such a thing as 'calmness'?
You still haven't fundamentally solved the problem of red blade fanaticism, but just used sword skills such as air blade cutting to forcibly consume part of the momentum and keep yourself in a 'not overflowing' state.
With your current self-control, courage and momentum are extracted together, and I'm afraid you dare to jump into the ancient dragon's mouth Iai when your brain is hot."
Hayata, who was poked in the sore spot, puffed up his mouth.
"Gordon meow." Pork Chop poked Gordon and whispered.
"Hmm?"
"Is Hayata a bit like Gene meow?"
"Almost"
