Chapter 976 The Upcoming Journey
(I’m quite busy and I really can’t make it in time. That’s it for today orz)
"Is that what the old guy told you?" the commander-in-chief sighed.
Gordon and others looked at each other in confusion. After telling the Commander-in-Chief about the Grand Commander's commission, the latter's reaction made them a little uneasy.
Noticing the change in their demeanor, the Commander-in-Chief raised his hand, "Don't get me wrong, what the Grand Leader said is true, but I didn't expect him to be so persistent in the Nergigante Society.
In the early days of the investigation team, or in other words, before the arrival of the fourth phase of the team, we were always in a state of shortage of manpower.
The investigation mission was not as clearly planned as it is now.
There are too many things to investigate, but there are only a few experienced hunters and investigators. No one can be sure how to investigate or where to investigate, so everyone investigates in a relatively free way.
Taking the members of the first group as an example, Nergigante is the main investigation direction of the Grand Leader.
In the past thirty years, he had encountered Nergigante several times, confirming Nergigante's habit of actively hunting other ancient dragon species.
It also proves that the activities of the Nergigante will indeed cause turmoil among the ancient dragons.
In contrast, Mecca's investigation direction is the changes in the energy of the earth's veins, while Yuanye prefers to travel around the entire continent, collecting various detailed information and integrating it into intelligence. "
"In that case, wouldn't it be better to leave the Big Ant Mound Wasteland to Mr. Mecca for investigation?" Ancil asked.
The commander-in-chief looked a little troubled, "That's true, but Mecca has been out of contact for more than a month.
Things in the Big Ant Mound Wasteland cannot be delayed. The energy of the earth veins and even the terrain of the underground caves may change at any time, and the clues may be fleeting.
I have also considered commissioning your investigation directly.
But you have only arrived in the New World not long ago, and you are not sensitive enough to many things here and may overlook some things, so that guy becomes the only choice. "
Gordon couldn't refute these words.
If he were asked to follow the footsteps of some kind of monster, he believed that nothing would go wrong, but earth energy and so on
He knew this word only two days ago.
"The choice of whether to accept the Grand Leader's commission and track the Nergigante is left to you.
You need to cross the entire new continent from south to north, and the time spent on the journey will be measured in months, not to mention the dangers when facing the Nergigante.
Even if you make up your mind, be prepared to achieve nothing. "The commander-in-chief said in a serious tone.
"Hey, if you say that, young people will give up!"
Heroic laughter came, and the leader walked into the headquarters and came in front of everyone.
The commander-in-chief glanced at his old friend and said rather tit-for-tat: "If they decide to embark on this journey, they must be aware of it accordingly."
"Yes, yes," the leader raised his hand as if surrendering.
Turning his head and grinning again, he winked at Gordon and the other three and said, "But this is not without its benefits. Think about it, if you accept this commission for free exploration, you can run around as you please.
There are no boring and trivial daily tasks, and you will not be ordered around by this old guy. You can go wherever you want and come back whenever you want.
After all, no one knows when and where the Nergigante will appear. Theoretically, there is no difference between your arrival in the north of the continent tomorrow and your arrival next year. It all depends on luck anyway.
There is no need for you to rush on your way. You can go to the Coral Platform and enjoy it for two months. You can also visit the research base on the way.
You can also go to the Valley of Miasma for a stroll, if you are happy, but the road is difficult to walk.
If those scholars ask you to assist in the investigation, if you want to help, just do it. If you don’t want to help, just pretend that you are busy, hahahaha!
You know why I, Mecca, and the others are always running around in the wild, right? "
The three Gordons exchanged glances, obviously moved.
The Commander-in-Chief's face turned dark. It's not enough for this old guy to be a bastard himself, but he also wants to trick young people into becoming bastards too? !
Before the commander-in-chief could speak, the grand leader quickly continued: "Look, the ancient dragons in the New World are quite peaceful now, aren't they?
It took a lot of effort to invite the elite members of the Special Investigation Team from the Old Continent. Do you have the nerve to let them stay in the stronghold every day, help find a place to set up a camp today, and help collect building materials tomorrow?
It's better to take this opportunity to let them out, get to know this continent well, and grow up.
Besides, how can there be any saying that nothing is gained? Even if the Nergigant is not found, haven't all the experiences along the way been gained? "
After choking for several seconds, the commander-in-chief sighed and said helplessly, "You old guy, you obviously have the body of a reckless man, but you are always so good at sophistry."
"Hahahaha!" The leader laughed loudly.
The commander-in-chief was too lazy to look at him and turned to the young hunters and said: "In short, the situation is just like what we just said. Whether you want to go on this trip depends on your own wishes."
The three of them exchanged words in low voices, and finally Gordon said: "Let's go. Regardless of whether we can find the Nergigante or not, we want to take this opportunity to take a good look at this continent."
"Haha! That's right!" The leader slapped Gordon on the shoulder hard, "What kind of hunter is a hunter who doesn't want to leave the house?"
A smile also appeared on the Commander-in-Chief's face, as if he was thinking of his younger self.
Having decided on a long journey, Gordon and the others did not set off immediately.
The departure date was set for half a month later. Not only did they have to prepare many things, but the commander-in-chief also entrusted them with some other things.
The research base has been isolated on the coral plateau for many years.
Under the leadership of the head of the third-term group, the group of scholars not only solved the problem of important supplies such as food, but also made paper, which was consumed in huge quantities in daily life.
But there are always some things that they can't make no matter what, such as needles and thread for sewing clothes, such as steel pen tips that can write fine fonts, etc.
This time, we can prepare a batch of supplies and let Gordon and others help to bring them over.
After leaving the commander-in-chief and his men, everyone went to the processing house together.
For nothing else, Xianglan's new cat armor was made.
Seeing that everyone followed, Xianglan was very happy at first, but after seeing the new cat armor made of the remaining materials of the angry Tyrannosaurus, its face turned black.
Turning around and wanting to run, Hayata quickly grabbed it back.
The leader of the second-term group who designed this cat armor himself asked Xianglan with his teeth bared, "How is it? Is it cute?"
"Cute *** meow meow!" Xianglan screamed with her teeth bared.
"I think it's cute."
"I think so too meow."
Gordon and Zhucho pinched their chins and tried hard to hold back their laughter.
Ansel didn't like to talk nonsense. He searched for adjectives for a long time and commented, "There is a kind of wild beauty."
Hayata smiled and pursed his lips, and moved this dog-like equipment in front of Xianglan, "Try it, it looks very strong, and the defensive performance should be outstanding."
"No meow! I don't want to wear such clothes meow meow meow!" Xianglan tried to run away, but was held tightly by Zhucho, kicking her legs and meowing loudly.
"You have to think positively meow, this full-cover cat armor is very rare meow, and it has high fire resistance meow, wear this cat armor, you don't have to worry about being burned bald meow!"
"I would rather be burned bald meow!"
