Once it comes to matters related to "negotiation", Gordon Hayata consciously keeps his mouth shut.
Leave this part to Anhir.
An Xil smiled and said: "Well, since you emphasized that it was not a cliche but the truth, it seems that our silver border does meet your requirements very well.
I won’t tolerate too many twists and turns. The choice is a two-way street. You are very satisfied with us, but we know little about the situation in the New World.
What conditions can the investigation team give us? In other words, what reason do we have to leave behind our relatives and friends in the old continent, everything we do here, and go to the unknown new continent?
As far as I know, a survey team that goes to the New World can't just come back, right? "
The dragon hunter nodded, "Yes, generally speaking, the work of the New World Ancient Dragon Investigation Team lasts for ten years. There is basically no chance to return to the Old World during these ten years, but after ten years, you can choose to withdraw freely."
The three Gordons looked at each other.
ten years? !
Hayata said: "With all due respect, Mr. Mecca, long-term planning and decisions for the next ten years or even longer cannot be made in two or three sentences."
Faced with the faint resistance shown by Gordon and the others, the dragon hunter didn't find it strange.
In fact, every group faces difficulties in recruiting personnel.
The easiest people to recruit are the scholars of the Dragon Tribe. They are full of curiosity about everything in the New World and have a long life. They don't really care about ten or twenty years, and they basically just leave after being called.
Human hunters are the most difficult to recruit, especially those who have already started a family, and will basically refuse.
It will be easier for young people who are adventurous, but the three people in front of them are obviously not the kind of teenagers who make decisions immediately when their brains are hot.
"I cannot give particularly high conditions in terms of salary and other aspects. In fact, the salary of the investigation team is not high." The dragon hunter frowned.
Anhil shrugged and did not interrupt him. If it were a profit-seeking businessman here, he would probably have turned around and left, but they were not businessmen after all.
“In the past, each group was organized with the help of the guild headquarters, which released recruitment information across the continent and then conducted screening. In other words, most members participated voluntarily.
Only a very small number of special personnel who can play a key role will be specially invited (recommendation group).
The formation of the special investigation team this time is relatively sudden. It is indeed a bit abrupt to come to you directly. Please forgive me. "The dragon hunter bowed again.
Gordon felt that the person in front of him was a little too honest, but Ancier knew that this was also a way of negotiation.
The dragon hunter raised his head, faced Ancier's unwavering gaze, and continued: "There is only one reason for telling you all the true situation in advance.
Compared with the Old World, the ecology of the New World is more diverse and more dangerous. If anyone is "fooled" and feels unhappy, it will be an uneasy factor for everyone.
Therefore, even if I know that you are likely to reject it, I cannot tell lies.
Let’s get back to the point.
Since you just mentioned that there are actually two reasons for joining the investigation team to go to the New World. "
Gordon and the others sat up slightly after hearing this, knowing that the drama was coming.
The dragon hunter paused for two seconds and continued: "First, although the New World is dangerous, it is a magnificent world that cannot be imagined by those who have not seen it with their own eyes.
Mountain-like giant trees, beautiful coral reefs on land, and unique anthill deserts
At the same time, the "energy environment" in the New World is stronger, giving rise to many monsters that are rare or even unheard of in the Old World, as well as all kinds of strange little creatures.
To give a simple example, in the Old Continent, among the thirty or fifty fire dragons, there may not be a subspecies like the Blue Fire Dragon Sakura Fire Dragon.
In the New World, the proportion of the fire dragon subspecies in the overall population exceeds 20%.
Some scholars even speculate that the impact of this high-energy environment on living things may also apply to humans, but this has not been confirmed yet.
Our craftsmen, after decades of accumulation and development, have developed an equipment manufacturing system that is different from the craftsmen of the old continent. Even legendary masters like Long Shiren are full of praise.
In short, if you are the kind of hunter who yearns to explore the unknown, enjoy fighting powerful monsters you have never seen before, hone yourself in a dangerous but opportunity-filled natural environment, and constantly become stronger, the New World is for you. "
Anhir narrowed his eyes slightly.
This guy is very good at deceiving people. He described the dangerous New World as like a thrilling amusement park.
He glanced calmly at Gordon and Hayata beside him. Looking at their raised eyebrows, he felt a toothache.
These two guys were excited.
"As for the other reason, it may be more serious." The dragon hunter put his hands on the table and his tone became more serious.
The proprietress, who was fanning herself, glanced at him and seemed to know what he was going to say. She raised her fan and pointed to the bald bartender at the door of the tavern.
The bartender walked out of the counter with understanding, so as not to pay compensation alone, asked the few guests in the tavern to come out, and then closed and locked the door.
Those guests were all from Longliyuan. Although they were a little unhappy, they did not dare to prick the landlady's territory.
"Some information is actually confidential and should not be disclosed to people outside the guild's senior management and the investigation team. However, since it is an invitation from our side, it would be too insincere to keep it secretive."
Seeing the other guests leaving, the dragon hunter continued: "Many years ago, we discovered that ancient dragons would migrate to the New World on a large scale every once in a while.
We call this phenomenon 'Gulong Crossing'.
The New World Ancient Dragon Investigation Team was established to investigate the Ancient Dragon Crossing. The time when each investigation team was established also corresponded to the cycle of the Ancient Dragon Crossing.
In the past two or three decades, we have found that the cycle of ancient dragon crossings seems to be shortening, and the number of migrating ancient dragons is also increasing.
Coupled with the frequent occurrence of ancient dragon incidents in the Old World in recent years, scholars speculate that there may be a connection between the two. "
Gordon's expression became serious, he crossed his arms and stared at the dragon hunter.
The dragon hunter looked at him calmly.
A few seconds later, Gordon asked: "So the purpose of your temporary formation of the 'Special Investigation Team' is to find out the cause of the ancient dragon's abnormal activities?"
"It can be understood this way, but a more accurate statement is that the abnormal activities of ancient dragons not only exist in the Old World, but also occur in the New World.
Considering the ancient dragon crossing phenomenon, the source of all this may be in the New World. (unilateral guess)
Our people have been investigating these incidents, but as incidents occur more and more frequently, our current staff is overwhelmed.
It will take several years to form the fifth phase of the group, and we need more timely support. "
Gordon pondered for a moment, said "Wait a moment", got up and took his friends to a corner of the tavern, where they exchanged a few words in a low voice.
Then he walked back and said to the dragon hunter: "We can't reply to you immediately, there are still many things that need to be considered and confirmed.
How about a month? In a month, whether participating or not, we will go to East Doruma to give you a definite answer. "
The dragon hunter nodded.
This answer was within his expectation. He stood up and said, "Of course, I also need to communicate with other teams. See you in East Doruma in one month."
ps.
By the way, the Lu Coral Terrace was discovered by the third-phase group, and the camp was established by the fifth-phase group (because the Lava Mountain Dragon opened the road from the stars to Lu Coral, so supplies can be transported.)
