Chapter 201: The Man of Longing
It took two days to get used to the new surroundings and buy some hunting tools.
That morning, Hayata, who had made all the preparations, arrived at the assembly hall in full gear.
Quest counterside.
Seeing the very beautiful-eyed and impressive Miss Hunter approaching, Hurley, who was yawning, immediately cheered up.
Rubbing his footsteps forward, he took the initiative to prepare for the reception, and planned to chat a few more words by the way.
Unfortunately, the eldest sister Herty saw through her intentions in advance, reached out and carried her aside, and taught her not to disturb the guests.
And the job of receiving Hayatta naturally fell to the second sister Hertha.
"Good day, Miss Hayata." Hertha has a sweet smile and an amiable attitude.
"Good morning." Hayatta also smiled in response.
"How's the Hunter's Cabin? Is it comfortable to live in? ”
"It's nice, it's more spacious than I thought, it's clean, and it's well stocked." Hayatta praised heartily.
"That's the facilities of the Dondoruma Hunters' Guild, but it's the best in the whole continent!" Hertha said proudly, and then brought the conversation back on track.
"Miss Hayata, are you here so early today to take on the mission?"
"Yes."
Hayatta exhaled softly, as if determined in some way, and placed her hunter's notes on the counter.
"I want to be promoted to a four-star assessment."
"Huh?!" Hertha was stunned when she heard this.
Hearing her words, Hurley and Huttie also gathered around.
"Miss Hayatta is only nineteen years old, is she already about to be promoted to a four-star hunter?!" Hurley, who has a lively personality, covered her small mouth lightly and said in surprise: "It's amazing! Julius was only promoted at this age! ”
Hayatta lowered her jaw shyly, "It's all because I have a good master, and he took me with me until I was promoted to three stars, so he was a little faster than the other hunters." ”
"It's not a 'faster' thing."
The old man's voice came from the edge of the counter, and the person who spoke was the guild director who had been napping there before.
"Julius and Anhill, known as the 'Dondoruma Twins', were four-star hunters promoted at the age of 19 and 20 respectively.
Oh, by the way, there was also a young great sword envoy who had just arrived in Dondoruma recently, named Gordon, who was also promoted to a four-star when he was almost twenty years old.
Not to mention breaking the record, these three are definitely the best among their peers, in other words, little girl, you are already at the top of the younger generation! ”
The guildmaster's compliment made Hayatta blush.
She shook her hands in a panic, trying to deny something, when suddenly she heard a name that she cared a little about.
"Huh? Great Swordsman, Gordon Senpai? ”
"Well, you know him?"
"Is it the one with the hunting cat named 'Pork Chop'?"
"Yes!"
Hurley leaned over, "Cute Elu, with a golden and white coat, a fluffy little one, it's comfortable to hold!" ”
Hayatta also smiled and bent his eyes, "Sure enough, it's Gordon's senior, is the pork chop and him okay?" ”
"It's very energetic."
The guild director smiled and said, "By the way, Gordon only applied for the assessment task of promoting to five stars a few days ago, and when he returns successfully, he will be the youngest five-star hunter in the guild." ”
"It's really worthy of Gordon's senior~!"
Halfata didn't show any surprise, but took it for granted, "I'm going to work hard and strive for a smooth promotion to four stars!" ”
Hearing Hayatta say this, the guild director's expression became a little more serious.
He took the former's hunter's notes, flipped through them, and said, "Little girl, the number of tasks and the level of your equipment have reached the standard of applying for a four-star assessment task.
But I still recommend that you polish it for a while, after all, you are still very young and there is no need to rush. ”
Hearing this, Hayatta hesitated for two seconds, but finally bowed and said, "I'm sorry, Guild Master, but I still want to try." ”
The guild director held a cigarette stick in his mouth and exhaled the smoke.
He was not surprised by Hayata's choice.
People who can reach this level of strength at such a young age are all strong-willed guys, and to put it mildly, they are "stubborn".
If he could be persuaded to do so, would Julius have ventured to challenge the General Scythe before he was twenty years old?
Will Anhill sneak away to the volcanic area to find the general scythe crab to prove himself?
Damn, it hurts to talk about that kid.
I am going to refuse this little girl's request for promotion now, one is unreasonable, and the other is.
What should I do if this kid who looks pretty well-behaved also sneaks away?!
"Alas, it's also me who talks a lot, I hope you know it in your heart."
The guild director snorted the burned cigarette ash into the ashtray, raised his hand to Hetty, and said, "Take out all the suitable four-star hunting people." ”
As the center of the continent, the East Doruma Rally has an extremely large number of missions, and even the documents for four-star hunting missions have a thick pile.
Carefully selecting a battle among the nearly twenty mission slips, Hayatta chose one of them.
The guild director craned his neck and glanced at it, then frowned.
"The Male Fire Dragon?"
"Your Excellency, is there anything wrong with the Male Fire Dragon?" Hertha looked at the old dragon man with some confusion.
The guild director stroked his snow-white beard, "It's not a problem, it's just that there have been some arguments within the guild and the paleontology scrivener team recently."
Some scholars believe that the ecological level of the male fire dragon is higher than that of the female fire dragon, and the danger should be divided into five stars.
Another part of the voices believed that the size and danger level of the male fire dragon had not yet reached the five-star level, at most it was a four-star peak, and the level should not be arbitrarily transferred. ”
Speaking of this, the guild director paused, and he looked at Hayatta and seriously suggested:
"Even from the most realistic point of view, I don't recommend that you choose a male fire dragon as the target of the four-star promotion, you can choose some relatively 'safe' opponents.
For example, the female fire dragon, the general sickle crab, and the peach fur beast king subspecies. ”
"I'm sorry!" Hayatta bowed to the guildmaster again.
The attitude speaks for itself.
The guildmaster's eyebrows jumped fiercely.
Foul mouth, are the brains of these young geniuses made of iron ore? How is one more than the shaft?
Hayatta pursed her lips and said apologetically, "When I was still in Minagard, I heard rumors that there was a young great sword envoy in Kokot Village who successfully hunted a male fire dragon and was promoted to four stars.
It's Gordon's seniors.
That senior has always been my dream and goal, so I also want to challenge myself to see if my strength has reached that point. ”
"Oh roar~?" Hurley gave a subtle wicked smile and wanted to ask something, but was pushed aside by Herty.
The guild director sighed again, "In that case, I won't talk about it anymore. ”
He picked up the quill and approved Hayata's promotion.
"But be careful, recovery potions, antidotes, flashbangs, these must be prepared, the male fire dragon is more than one grade stronger than the monsters you have hunted, and you must not underestimate the enemy."
"I'll be well prepared, thanks for the reminder." Hayatta earnestly thanked the old dragon.
"Go, go."
Ps.
Here is a rough overview of the age of the protagonist and others
Gordon officially became a hunter at the age of seventeen, two stars after more than half a year, three stars when he was almost nineteen, four stars after about half a year (there was a three-star accumulation task before), and now he is about to be promoted to five stars at the age of twenty-two
Anhill is less than a year old, four stars in his early twenties, and now almost twenty-three.
Feng Ying's age is blurred, in short, it is an underage girl equivalent to fifteen or sixteen years old in humans, mainly I don't know how to calculate the growth period of the dragon race.
Khayata was more than two years younger than Gordon and first met Gordon when he was almost fifteen, shortly after Gordon became an official hunter. Since she started training earlier than Gordon and Amos had been taking her on hunting, she grew up faster, at about three stars at the age of eighteen, and then left Minagard to practice on her own, and now she is in her early nineteens, ready to be promoted to four stars.
