681. Re-upgrade
"Here's why."
Aibo watched the food disappear under Ran's knife and fork, and his tone was noticeably lower, but he still dutifully did his job as an investigator accompanying himβmaking analysis and explanations.
"The energy environment of the New World is very different from that of the Old World."
"Because of this, whether it is the habits, strength, and even species characteristics of monsters, they have changed in the natural evolution of millions of years. Even in the New World, the dragon wings have one more supporting bone than the Old World. The evolutionary differences are not insignificant. β
"When humans set foot in the New World, they were like people who had been living in the plateau and lived in the plains and even basins. Although there is no change in consciousness, the body has already reacted. β
"If you don't take advantage of these changes in your daily training, wait until later on a hunting mission. Hey~ At that time, I found that my movements were deformed and my reaction was slow, but it was over! β
In the end, Aibo shrunk his neck as if he had thought of some terrible image.
"The routes between the Old and New Worlds are still dangerous and confusing, and every member of the investigation team that comes here is an elite member of the Old World. Therefore, personnel are very valuable, and with the rigor of the commander-in-chief, he estimates that no dangerous mission will be issued to each person until the combat effectiveness of the new continent is accurately determined. β
"But you're not the same as the referral group." Aiden slammed his mouth, his tone making it seem like the beer in his cup was sour.
"Wende is the trump card of the guild's trump cards, and although we haven't met before, your reputation is really big. I heard that you were on a secret mission before you boarded the ship, and the whole fleet of people waited in the harbor for a week! β
Lan En looked at Wen De beside him with some surprise, he had already thought that this guy was very skilled, but he didn't expect it to be a 'decisive battle weapon' level with a hand?
To have an entire investigation team wait in port for a week is too big.
And Winder himself laughed dryly, scratching his head embarrassedly.
Just from the outside, there is actually no great master's bearing.
"And you? A hunter from another world. After complaining about Winder, Aiden said Lane in an envious tone.
"I almost killed a monster I've never seen before in the first confrontation! That's a brute-jawed dragon with a dangerous level of the female fire dragon! β
"It took me a long time to go from being a novice hunter to being qualified to take on the task of hunting female fire dragons, and I had to start all over again when I got to the New World. Ah~ It's so annoying! β
"All the skills are still there, and it should be quick to control the body and adapt to the environment. Relax. β
Lann poured the last bite of creamy mushroom soup on top of the bread and swallowed it in one gulp, comforting Aiden as he chewed.
"Let's hope so"
Aiden helplessly spread his hands and drank the last sip of beer in the big wooden cup.
"It's time to go back and rest, by the way, Lann, has the commander-in-chief arranged a dormitory for you?"
The witcher was stunned when he heard this: "I didn't say anything about it."
Wynde patted Rann on the shoulder excitedly, as did Aiden.
"Then let's live with the two of us, the commander-in-chief probably forgot, but there is a shortage of housing in the stars, and it should be a shared accommodation in the end. What do you think? β
Living in a dormitory with two of his peers made a string stir in the head of a witcher who was one step away from reporting to college.
It seems to be fun!
"I'm fine."
After waving goodbye to the chef, who had the temperament of a black boss, Lan, Wind, and Aiden arrived at their lodging hut.
Indeed, as Aiden said, Xingchen's current housing resources are not abundant, and the dormitory originally for the two of them was only about 20 square meters, which was like a ship's cabin. It also seems to be a room that was removed from the ships of the previous regiments.
Among them, there are also miscellaneous equipment and supplies they need for hunting.
However, living with friends, the hardware conditions are not so cared about.
Because of his height and size, Lane refused Aiden and Wind's attempt to give up their beds.
There was no shortage of tarpaulins for the hunters to camp in the wild, and he simply spread a double tarpaulin on the ground to use it as a bed.
Strange to say, on the night he rested in Eritusa after the war, he lay on the most comfortable and expensive bed in the world, covered with a bedding that used magic to soothe his spirit and keep the temperature constant.
But I didn't feel comfortable or at ease in this cramped room.
The sound of the two hunters breathing was in his ears, and the smell of the ointment of the maintenance weapons and armor and the smell of steel lingered in his nose.
For the first time after the war, Lane slept soundly.
ββ
Early the next morning, the stars were already lively.
In fact, although the Star Stronghold is precious, it still has a scheduling system to ensure that it can operate day and night.
Because some tasks must be done at night, such as observing the growth of certain fluorescent fungi and the habits of certain nocturnal creatures
So even last night when the welcome party was held, there were still hunters coming and going in the circulation area.
"Yo! Are you awake? Your sleep quality is so good. β
When he opened his eyes in the morning, Lan felt a thrill of great comfort, as if the thing in his chest that had been holding him down had disappeared.
I don't know if it's because it's on the edge of a primeval forest, but the air in the New World makes Lan En feel incredibly fresh. You can feel it even in the hut.
Aiden said to Rann as he moved his shoulder blades, knees, and other joints.
He had now changed into a hunter's casual outfit, and he looked like he was going to exercise.
"We're going to start adaptation training today, and the first thing we have to do is follow the investigation squad leader."
Lan En looked at Aiden, who was pressing his legs, and reacted for a while before remembering that the leader of the investigation squad was Little Jack.
"Winder is waiting for you in the workshop area on the second floor, and you two are supposed to be able to go out on a mission today. Ah~ I envy you that you can go deep into the New World. β
"Let's go first!"
Aiden and the rest of the 5th Regiment gathered from all over the circulation area near the gate of the stronghold, apparently to have a group meal after the morning exercise.
Lan En looked in the mirror, looking at his long silver hair that was unkempt and unkempt in the mirror, and had no beauty at all, he was stunned for a moment.
Then he laughed out loud.
The Emperor's sons will not give up their manners even in the most tense battlefields.
In other words, the perfection of the demeanor is actually a manifestation of the nervousness of the emperor's sons.
And Lanne's messy hair is enough to show how relaxed he was last night.
