Chapter 234: Knight of Hope
The harmonious combination of civilization and nature is the hallmark of the entire star stronghold.
Lilia walked and admired the view of the colony.
"There are a lot of people there."
Lilia suddenly noticed that in the center of the circulation area, dozens of hunters had gathered.
Directly in front of them, the supply boxes were piled up into a small mountain.
A dark-skinned woman was standing on top of the crate, flipping through a thick, boundless notebook in her hand.
Lilia leaned over curiously, and she whispered to the caretaker what he was doing.
The steward explained to Lilia through the heartnet: "Every month, the stronghold will have one or two cargo ships in charge of the fourth phase of the group to and from the old and new continents, and they will regularly purchase some necessary supplies to come to the new world. In addition, these supplies need to be booked in advance with the captain of the fourth regiment. ”
"I see." Lilia looked at the heroic woman on the box and asked the waiter, "That is the head of the fourth regiment?" ”
"No, that's the head of the supplies squad. I heard from everyone in the fourth phase of the regiment that the head of the material squad was in charge of an underground black market in the Old World, and then he came to the New World because he thought the New World was more interesting and exciting. ”
"Hmm, it's so powerful, I've been in charge of the black market" Just listening to the description of the caretaker, Lilia knew the professionalism of this material squad leader.
But at the same time, Lilia is also very smart to realize a very important thing.
"Since this is the leader of the material squad and not the captain, does it mean that the materials entering the New World will be handed over to the material squad first?"
"Not only the materials that enter the New World, but all the materials in the stronghold, including the monster materials brought back by the hunters, need to go through the hands of the material squad first, and then distribute those materials to the people in need through the material class."
"Do I have to hand in the materials that the hunters bring back first? That's a bit unreasonable, isn't it? ”
"Only the materials of monsters and some precious plants and minerals need to be handed in, and the other general materials can be chosen by the hunters."
After listening, Lilia secretly sighed at the guild's strict control of monster materials.
Seeing that the head of the supply squad was distributing supplies according to the orders ordered by the hunters, Lilia also turned to leave, and she was about to inquire about the prices of various commodities in the stronghold.
The leader of the material squad on the supply box naturally noticed Liliai, who was wearing a protective suit.
Lilia's message from the Commander-in-Chief from another world has been conveyed to all the higher-ups.
She muttered in her heart: "It sounds very interesting, I don't know what magical goods are in the other world?" ”
As she walked, Lilia inquired about the prices of the goods in the stronghold, and wrote down all the details in a notebook.
Dining area on three floors.
"You ordered it, Mushroom Bisque."
An Ellu cat placed a large bowl of soup in front of Lilia.
Looking at the soup bowl that was about the size of a small basin, I didn't know if I could finish it for a while.
Lilia looked left and right at the hunters who were eating, and the small pot of soup in front of her was only appetizing for the other hunters.
"Aren't you going to eat meow?" An Elu cat looked at Lilia expectantly.
The soup in front of Lilia has his help.
"I'm going." Lilia opens the mask of her suit.
She has already relied on protective clothing for testing, and it is no problem to open the protective clothing for a while.
Lilia slowly enjoyed her breakfast, recording the price of the 'Lynx and the Weapon Pavilion' dish as she ate.
"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since Knight Baichen has come here to dine."
The Elu cat complained to her partner.
"There's no way around it, Knight Baichen is taking care of her now, and her cooking skills have caught up with the chef."
The stewards and Majiyana, who had come with Lilia, were helping the chef prepare the hunters' breakfast.
Lilia heard these Ailu cats talking about Bai Chen, and she asked curiously, "Do you all know Bai Chen?" ”
The two Ailu cats looked at each other suspiciously: "I don't think there is anyone in the entire Star Stronghold who doesn't know the White Knight, right?" ”
"Let's just say that in our Bobcat Pavilion, his food consumption has broken the historical record, and the upper limit has been increased by four times."
The two Eluks replied one by one.
"In the beginning, we were tired of a lot of Elu meows. We originally wanted to find him 'revenge', and Bibi saw if he couldn't eat first or we were tired first, but he never came to eat with us again during this time, which is a pity. ”
Lilia smiled knowingly.
It seems that Mr. Bai's appetite is the largest even in the entire stronghold.
Lilia was now more interested in Bai Chen's past, and she asked the two Ailu cats, "Can you tell me about Mr. Bai?" This is considered a tip for you. ”
Lilia took out ten gold coins and gave them to the two Ellu cats.
The two Ellu cats happily accepted the coins, and they asked Lilia, "What do you want to hear?" ”
"I came all the way to see how many hunters were in awe of Mr. Bai, do you know what the situation is?"
The two Elu cats replied.
"Ah, I think it's because the White Knight is very powerful, right?"
"That's not something that can be described as powerful, it should be said that it's super super super powerful!"
"Two months ago, when the investigation team captured the super-large ancient dragon Molten Mountain Dragon, the Baichen Knight used a very powerful method to make the rock dragon bigger, and thanks to the Baichen Knight, the investigation team was able to finally capture the Molten Mountain Dragon."
Lilia knew it was the Rock Dragon's super-giant transformation.
To be honest, the rock dragon can perform super-giant transformation anywhere, which is quite explosive in the Pokémon world.
"And the speed at which the White Knight completed the task also broke the historical record of the investigation team, and he could complete more than a dozen tasks in just two or three days."
"Now as soon as the hunters see the White Knight coming back, they will rush to pick up the task, and they are afraid that they will not be able to receive the task if they come one step too late."
Lily Eyre understood.
She now finally understood why the whole colony was so tense when they arrived at the colony gates.
Ai Lu Cat continued: "When the members of the Fifth Regiment first came to the stronghold, Baichen Knight had not yet made a force, and at that time, he was only taking on some mushroom collection tasks, and he was called 'Mushroom Hunter' by other hunters. ”
Mushroom hunter?
Lily smiled.
I didn't expect Mr. Bai to have such a cute title.
Lilia was a little more interested in Bai Chen's past, and she asked the two Ailu cats, "Do you know where Mr. Bai's hometown is?" ”
"I heard that it's from the village of Marchana, where there are knights like Bai Chen, who will fight with monsters."
"Massana Village?" Lilia silently kept the name in her heart.
"Yes, Meow, I heard from Ila at the assembly house that Bai Chen was called the 'Knight of Hope' in the village of Masana, and he came to the New World to exercise his abilities and to be able to return to the village of Masana to defend the village one day."
"Even such a powerful knight can only be called a 'knight of hope', so what kind of disaster awaits the white knight?"
"Do you know when Mr. Bai will return to his hometown?" Lilia asked.
How did the two Elu cats know about this, they could only tell Lilia what they had heard.
"The village of Mashana is very far away from the New World, and the news from them there almost does not reach the New World, but I heard from the people of the fourth phase of the group who traveled back and forth to the Old and New Worlds that there were many traces of ancient dragons in the Old World during this time."
"It feels like the world is going to change dramatically."
Lilia silently kept these things in mind.
After breakfast, Lilia went to the workshop area again, and she met the smith who was discussing how to make weapons with the second commander.
She asked about the price of the weapons and equipment in the workshop, and the processing fees of the craftsmen, and then left.
Lilia was about to go home when she heard a loud bell from Simon.
After learning about the workings of the colony, Lilia understood that it was a sign of the Hunter's return.
A curious Lilia approached with the Steward and Majiana.
Arriving at the gate, Lilia saw the transporters return to the stronghold with a captured Jawed Dragon.
Lilia took a closer look at the brute-jawed dragon and realized that it was still an old acquaintance.
The captured Jawed Dragon was the same one that was almost killed by the Exterminating Dragon this morning.
At the front of the transporter, a team of four is handing over tasks to the receptionist.
The captured Jawed Dragon was also taken by the Eru Cats to the platform on the west side of the gate.
A group of eco-researchers have also been notified at this moment that they are ready to accept the commissioned target.
"Majiyana, that brute-jawed dragon isn't dead yet, is it?"
Lilia whispered to Majiyana.
Majiyana nodded, her soul could feel that the soul of the Barbarian Jaw Dragon was still there.
Lilia sighed inaudibly.
What will happen to this brute-jawed dragon next can be imagined.
"What? Is it sympathy for this brute-jawed dragon? Are you people from other worlds as kind as you? ”
Suddenly, there was an inquiry behind Lilia.
Lilia turned her head to look, and she didn't know when the head of the supply squad was already standing less than a meter behind her.
"Hello squad leader, my name is "Lilia greeted the other party politely.
"Your name is Lilia, aren't you? The Commander-in-Chief has already told us about you, and it's amazing how you can understand our language. ”
"It's just that I'm special." When Lilia arrived, she discovered that the words and languages of the two worlds were completely different.
But strangely, she was able to read words and even communicate with hunters.
If you want to say the reason, it should be related to her ability to connect to the [Golden Temple].
The words she saw, and the words she spoke, were magically translated through the Golden Temple.
"You're just as enigmatic as Knight Baichen." The head of the supply squad walked up to Liliai's side, she looked at the brute-jawed dragon over there and asked again, "Are you sympathetic to that monster?" ”
Lilia nodded, then shook her head again, and said with a little confusion, "Maybe it's a little bit." I just don't like to see life go by. ”
Lilia herself had a masosaurus.
She knew that monsters had a certain amount of intelligence, and now that she was to watch an intelligent creature die, she would still have some waves in her heart, even though the other party had attacked her early in the morning.
"May I ask what will happen to this brute-jawed dragon?"
Squad Leader: "Capturing this brute-jawed dragon is a joint mission issued by the 'Lynx and the Weapon Pavilion' and a hunter squad. After a brief investigation of the condition of the brute-jawed dragon, his meat will be sent to the 'Bobcat and Weapon Pavilion', his individual materials will be sent to the hunter team, and the rest of the materials will go to the storage of the supply team, waiting for it to be used. ”
"Don't you have a hunter profession in the other world?"
Lilia replied, "We don't have a class like a hunter, but we do have a class like a trainer, treasure. Monsters get along with people in a friendly way. Of course, this is not the case for everyone, and the death of monsters is not unfounded. But most people are trying to protect monsters and strive for a harmonious coexistence between humans and monsters. ”
"Sounds good."
The two of them were chatting for a while, and the people from the ecological research institute over there had already taken out a one-liter syringe.
Finding the lifeblood of the Brute-Jawed Dragon, they injected the potion in the syringe directly into the Brute-Jawed Dragon's body.
This potion allows the brute-jawed dragon to die quietly in its sleep.
Of course, the reason for killing the Jawed Dragon in such a gentle way is also that it is worried that the Jawed Dragon will cause damage to the stronghold and researchers due to its death-defying counterattack.
At this time, the leader of the material squad beside Liliai suddenly clasped his hands together, and whispered to the barbarian jaw dragon who was stepping into death in the distance: "Thank you for your sacrifice, we will not waste your gifts." ”
Lilia looked at the material squad leader beside her in a daze.
At the end of the prayer, the head of the material squad asked Lilia strangely, "What's wrong?" Do you think it's weird? ”
Lilia nodded.
"It's not surprising, we hunters have a responsibility to take responsibility for our prey. They gave their lives, and we can't afford to waste them. ”
The head of the material squad recounted the course of action of the Hunter Guild so far.
Hunters are not allowed to kill monsters indiscriminately.
Hunters are not allowed to destroy the ecological environment.
Hunters are not allowed to use monster weapons and equipment against humans.
Hunters play the role of defenders, explorers and defenders in nature.
The head of the material squad said to Liliai, "Do you know the reason why most hunters are engaged in this high-risk profession? In fact, there are many new people joining every year, but the mortality rate of the hunter profession has always been high, and in 5 years, it is already a very good thing to survive 5 out of 10 hunters. ”
Lilia shook her head in confusion.
"Of course, many people are in it for fame, for money, for their dreams. But there are also a considerable number of people who want to protect the world and protect nature. Everyone's reasons for becoming a hunter are very different, but most hunters have the same mood, that is, they love the world and nature. ”
"This is the way of life of humans in our world. There may be times when we have to take the lives of other creatures in order to survive, and sometimes we have to fight to protect those we value. But for whatever reason, blasphemy is a felony, and we take every life seriously. ”
The head of the material squad paused.
She was relieved: "And after all, we are also a part of nature, monsters will fight each other, so it is not a strange thing for humans and monsters to fight." If a hunter were to die in the hunt one day, no one would complain. ”
