Gordon took the pork chop and jumped off the arriving airship.
A true red horn that was more than half a man long was carried on his shoulders and wrapped in oilcloth. It looked like a thick stick, attracting the curious eyes of many people.
Gordon, who was walking on the street, couldn't help but feel happy.
Fortunately, the packaging was covered up, otherwise the number of people watching might have been several times greater.
After squeezing through the crowd and walking all the way to the Hunter Assembly Hall located in the central area of the mountainside, Gordon pushed open the door of the assembly hall.
Different from those ordinary people on the street.
Several hunters who were having a drink at a nearby wine table accidentally glanced at this place, and their eyes suddenly straightened. The "stick" seemed to have magnetic force, firmly attracting their attention.
"Hey hey hey?! Is that it!"
"Yeah! That shape!"
Several hunters dropped their wine glasses and quickly ran to Gordon's side, surrounding him.
The movement here attracted the attention of more hunters in the assembly hall, and more and more people gathered around.
It would be stingy to keep secretive at this time.
Gordon grinned, held the "stick" in front of him, and ripped off the oilcloth wrapped on it, revealing the huge red horn that seemed to be soaked in blood.
The hunters who were watching suddenly exploded.
"Ooooooh!"
"True Red Horn!"
"I knew it was the 'proof of hero'!"
"By the way, I'm so young. Is Dioceratops a five-star?"
"Tsk tsk, he's not any worse than that kid Julius!"
"It seems his name is Gordon? I saw him and Ancier together before."
Some people patted their shoulders, some toasted, some stuffed large pieces of barbecue into Gordon's hands, and some were secretly eating pork chops. Everyone in the assembly hall made a fuss around the two of them for a while before slowly dispersing.
And the name "Gordon" finally left a special impression among the hunters in East Doruma.
The True Red Horn was lying quietly on the mission counter.
The three girls who were the poster girls all bowed to congratulate her. Even Hurley, who had the most out-of-the-box personality, showed her serious side at this time.
The True Red Horn, or the "Proof of Heroes", has a very special meaning to both the hunter group and the Hunter Guild.
——It symbolizes the beginning of the profession of "monster hunter".
The guild leader personally took out the seal, burned it red with charcoal fire, and stamped the fifth star seal on the cover of Gordon Hunter's notebook.
From today on, he is a five-star hunter.
Gordon scratched his cheek.
The days when the big wild boar king chased him around seemed like just yesterday, but now, was he only one step away from becoming a "high-ranking hunter"?
“It’s a bit lacking in realism”
While Gordon was sighing with emotion, a thin man wearing a scholar's robe and glasses knocked open the side door and stumbled over.
"Director! No, the information is wrong! Urgent message from the Peregrine Falcon Observation Balloon in the northwest of the Sea of Trees, the information is wrong!"
Gordon stepped aside, allowing the young scribe to rush to the guild director.
Looking at the scrivener's delicate and almost feminine side face, Gordon felt that it looked familiar. After recalling it for a few seconds, he suddenly blurted out: "Alva?!"
"Huh? Ah! You are..." The young scrivener who had faced Lan Long with Gordon a few years ago screamed in surprise.
Gordon quickly raised his hand to interrupt, indicating that he should ignore him and continue the report just now.
"Which piece of information is wrong?" The guild director also frowned and asked urgently.
Alva immediately put the note in his palm into the hands of his supervisor and reported the report very quickly: "Intelligence No. 124 of Shuhai, the related mission is Hunting No. 73.
Original intelligence showed that a male fire dragon had migrated to the northwest edge of the Sea of Trees, threatening the safety of the trade routes, so a hunting mission was established.
But just now, we received an intelligence update. Because the male fire dragon was observed late at night, the observer made a misjudgment.
That one is not an ordinary male fire dragon, but a subspecies of blue fire dragon! "
Gordon, who was eavesdropping on the side, could not help but grin with toothache - the difference between the blue fire dragon and the male fire dragon was not just as simple as the color of the scales.
Like some subspecies of monsters, the Cyan Fire Dragon is more likely to be discovered by predators from the moment it hatches, and is also more likely to be rejected and attacked by its own kind.
Any blue fire dragon that can survive to adulthood is far superior to ordinary male fire dragons in terms of strength and physique.
According to the danger level determined by the guild, the Blue Fire Dragon belongs to the top level of five-star monsters, even close to six-star levels.
Even compared to the one-horned dragon he hunted before, it was only stronger.
I can only pray that the hunter hasn't taken over that mission yet. If I go hunting the Blue Fire Dragon with the preparation of hunting the Male Fire Dragon, something big will happen.
"That mission has been taken over."
The guild director's face was frighteningly dark, "Just yesterday morning, I was accepted as an assessment task for promotion to four stars."
The three waitress girls who were quickly checking the task registration form raised their heads when they heard this, their faces pale.
Gordon's brows also frowned.
If you are receiving a mission from a five-star hunter and find that your opponent is not a male fire dragon but a blue fire dragon, you can choose to retreat, or you can curse and try to kill the blue fire dragon.
If you were an experienced four-star hunter, as long as you were more cautious, you would have a high degree of confidence in escaping safely from the pursuit of the Cang Fire Dragon.
But the three-star hunter who has not yet been officially promoted is different.
First of all, it is basically impossible for them to have experience in hunting large flying dragon species. The kind of pressure is completely different from that of bird dragon species such as giant strange birds.
Moreover, their equipment is not of a sufficient standard.
Take the explosive knife used by Gordon during his second and third years as an example. That sword was almost enough to cut down the male fire dragon, but when used against the blue fire dragon, it would only be bounced off by its scales.
——The sharpness is completely insufficient.
The same is true for armor. Without the replacement of equipment during the four-star period, no matter how talented you are, it will be difficult to pose a threat to five-star monsters.
"She went by airship. It only takes one day from East Doruma to the hunting ground on the west side of the Sea of Trees. She may have encountered the Blue Fire Dragon now!"
Hurley said with red eyes: "We must issue an emergency mission immediately and find someone to rescue her!"
"It's too late to issue the mission."
The guild leader looked at Gordon and said, "Gordon, I know you have just hunted the Dioceratops and are still very tired, but the situation is urgent. Can you please come?"
"No problem." Gordon nodded immediately, "It's mainly a matter of schedule. It's definitely too late to walk. Is there a suitable airship?"
Alva on the side immediately raised his hand and said: "We can help with the airship. We have an airship on standby and can set off within twenty minutes at the fastest!"
"That's it."
The guild director made a decision: "Alva is going to notify the airship now to prepare for take-off. If Gordon needs any additional props, I will have them delivered immediately."
"Recovery potion, antidote, and flash bomb. These are the three main things. The base is full. The others are troublesome to prepare and are not important."
In this emergency situation, melee hunters are particularly convenient.
"Hetty! Remember to bring some Kampo medicine!"
"Let's go get it now!"
"There's also Gunpowder Meow! I can adjust the Explosive Meow Meow on the airship!"
"Then take them all!"
ps.
The official relationship between Cang Ying and male and female Fire has not been stated clearly. It only talks about subtypes. What I say here is considered self-made, similar to Pokémon of different colors?
