Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 868 Evacuate the City

The discussion lasted until dark, and countless plans were proposed, all kinds of strange methods.

The restraint bombs were fired to lock, the city walls were blown down and collapsed, gunpowder was used as bait to lure out of the city, and a large amount of kerosene was used to ignite fire. In order to deal with the attack of the giant horn dragon, the hunters and scholars racked their brains.

As long as it was not too outrageous, the elder ordered people to record it, and those with higher feasibility would be prepared intensively.

The "poison bait" tactic, which had been proven effective in Metabetat, was naturally regarded as one of the key strategies.

The elder ordered Master Cambe to organize and dispatch personnel to produce gunpowder with all their strength, and folk workshops and factories would also join the logistics team.

There were two main purposes for doing this.

The scholars and hunters agreed that the giant horn dragon was not killed in Metabetat purely because there was not enough gunpowder.

If the appetizer-level gunpowder can't kill you, then this time I'll wait until you are full before I explode!

The elder didn't say the other reason, but those with more active minds could see it.

It's still unknown whether the giant halberd dragon will really attack Dongdoruma, after all, its whereabouts have not been confirmed yet.

The elder is preparing to use a large amount of gunpowder as bait to actively attract the giant halberd dragon to Dongdoruma, where the defense is the strongest, to solve the problem once and for all.

This decision is very dangerous, after all, Dongdoruma's battle street is "not in good condition", but this does not prevent it from being the strongest fortress in the entire continent.

If this is not done, the giant halberd dragon will attack and destroy a city every few days, and in a few weeks, the entire old continent will fall into chaos.

"Dongdongdong!"

There was a rapid knock on the door, and Gordon and Hayata sat up from the bed.

As hunters who often camp in the wild, they are much more vigilant than ordinary people.

After being confused for half a second, Gordon realized that this was Dongdoruma's residence. He yawned and muttered, "I'll go open the door."

Hayata also put on a coat and followed.

Living in a room on the first floor has this disadvantage. You have to be responsible for opening the door when visitors come. Feng Ying, who lives in the attic on the third floor, never needs to consider this.

Put your head under the pillow, roll over, and continue to sleep.

Opening the door, there is a young woman in light armor outside. Judging from the style of the armor, she is not a guild knight, but a sheriff from the municipal department.

The sheriff was also a little stunned when he saw the two people opening the door.

A young man and woman, should they be a couple living together or a young couple? That's not important. What's wrong with this physique?

The lady is okay. Although she is over 180 cm tall, which is quite tall among women, she is at least in the category of "normal people".

The man's face was mostly above the door frame, and only his chin could be seen.

Gordon lowered his head and shrunk his shoulders to squeeze out of the door frame. The sheriff subconsciously took a step back and almost fell down the steps in front of the door.

Hayata's soft laughter came from behind.

Gordon: "."

Well, his size is a bit scary for ordinary people.

"Ahem, who are you?" Gordon cleared his throat and asked.

He didn't force a "kind smile" or anything like that. Past experience told him that doing so would make others more nervous.

The young sheriff was also ashamed of her previous subconscious behavior. She quickly stood up and said with a stern face: "The Hunter Guild has issued an emergency declaration. There are dangerous monsters attacking.

The city hall has decided to evacuate Dondoruma. Please pack your carry-on luggage as soon as possible. The weight of each person's luggage must not exceed 20 kilograms. Special personnel will organize the evacuation later."

Gordon looked up at the street and found that there were several sheriffs knocking on doors to notify people.

"We are hunters. The guild has made arrangements. Don't worry about us." Gordon explained briefly.

"Ah!"

The sheriff looked surprised. She seemed to be very serious. She added, "If there are other residents in the house, please notify them."

"It's okay. They are also hunters."

"I see. Goodbye." The sheriff nodded and ran away. After running down the steps in front of the door, she suddenly turned around and bowed. "The city is in your hands."

"Well, leave it to us."

Gordon smiled and responded. He and Hayata returned to the house and just saw Anshil, who had finished washing and even put on protective gear, walking down the stairs.

"Are the citizens evacuated outside?"

"Well, did you hear it?" Gordon asked.

"I saw it from the window." Anshil answered casually.

Hayata asked curiously, "Is this kind of evacuation common?"

In her impression, Minagard has never evacuated the entire city. Even when the old mountain dragon attacked before, they only organized refuge.

"Not common. Apart from this time, I only experienced it once when I was very young." Ansel pulled out a chair next to the dining table and sat down.

"Due to the geographical location and road construction, East Doruma will be attacked by ancient dragons every few years or more than ten years.

Most of the time, there is no need to evacuate. For example, when the rusty steel dragon attacked before, there was no evacuation, only refuge was arranged.

This time, the elder also felt unsure, after all, the opponent was such a monster, and the situation in the battle street was not optimistic.

By the way, don't let the guild know that it has arranged to produce a large amount of gunpowder and actively attract the giant halberd dragon. It will cause big trouble."

Gordon rolled his eyelids, "You should remind Feng Ying of this, not us.

By the way, you said you experienced a city-wide evacuation when you were a child. What was the situation like? Was there a super-large ancient dragon or something? "

Anhil shrugged and said: "I actually investigated this matter later, and the situation that time was quite special. It was not a super-large ancient dragon, but a Xialong that ran out from the depths of the wetland.

As you all know, the poisonous mist of the ancient dragon would have disastrous consequences if it spread into the city, so the guild arranged an evacuation. "

"Xialong"

"I remember that the permanent population of East Doruma is nearly 100,000, and the floating population is nearly 200,000. Where will so many people be evacuated?" Hayata asked.

“There are many shelters built around East Doruma. Although they will definitely not be comfortable, it shouldn’t be a big problem if you stay there for a few days.

In fact, in the past, some people were evacuated to the sea from East Doruma Port, but considering the tragedy at Metabetate Port, there should be no more evacuation to the sea this time. "

At this point, Ancil paused and changed the topic, "We don't have to worry about the evacuation, but how prepared you are. Gordon, your [Divine Power] sword is cracked. Hayata, you make the decision. Which sword did you use?"

"Well"

This didactic tone made the two of them sit up subconsciously.

Hayata slowly took out an apple from the fruit basket on the table, broke it in half, and handed half to Gordon. In these few seconds, her brain was running at high speed, and she quickly thought of how to answer.

"I heard from the hunters of Metabet that dragon-type weapons are more effective? I'm going to use the Dragon Sword [Red Lotus]. I'll go get it from the Dragon Sense Ship soon."

Gordon held half an apple in his mouth and followed Hayata's words: "Weak dragon, that's alright, I'll use [Red Wings]."

Seeing the two people's impromptu decisions, Anhil felt a little itchy.

At this time, Feng Ying, who was wearing pajamas, also rubbed her eyes, scratched her belly, and walked down the stairs. She looked so relaxed and relaxed that she frowned.

In order to turn the heat around, Gordon shouted at Feng Ying who opened her mouth to yawn and asked, "Feng Ying! You are going to join the battle when Styracosaurus attacks. Have you chosen your weapons?!"

"Ah?" Feng Ying was confused and subconsciously replied, "Is there any other weapon I can choose?"

Anhir: "."

These swordsmen.
