Chapter 1566 Buying time
Ignoring Nellie's shouts behind him, Gene left the evacuation team and rushed towards the direction of Minagard City behind him.
A few months ago, when Amos went to Pokai Village and reopened the sealed ice cave behind the village.
He realized that something must have happened.
But Amos was a tight-lipped man. Even though he tried to get close to him by using his relationship with Gordon Hayata and the others, Amos didn't reveal much to him.
I just told him that there was a list, but his name was not on it, so he had no right to know.
Although Gene gives people the impression that he is a muscle-brain, he is actually a very smart person.
After thinking a little, I easily guessed that the matter was related to the "black block" that had caused me to have nightmares a few years ago.
With his strength as a seven-star hunter approaching eight-star, it stands to reason that his authority in all aspects should be quite high.
The reason why I was excluded from that list was probably because of my poor performance when I came into contact with the "Black Bloc" back then.
Fortunately, he is also a cheerful person.
Although I was somewhat unwilling to be excluded, I quickly adjusted myself.
It just so happened that the village of Pokai had been very peaceful recently. At the instigation of Mimoli and others, I followed Nari to Minagard to visit her parents.
As a result, I met "that guy" again.
"Hey, is this what they call 'fate'?" Gene pulled down the visor of the Tyrannosaurus armor, and even felt his blood boiling. "This time it won't be as ugly as it was back then!"
"Hey! What are you doing!" Gene heard someone calling him as he rushed into the gate of Minagard.
He couldn't help but slow down his pace and look sideways.
He was an old hunter wearing red armor.
"Ha! The Emperor suit? That's awesome, old man!"
Ernest, who was checking the progress of the evacuation at the city gate with President Vanti, Xia Zuo and Miles, suddenly had a twitch in his eyes.
What an outspoken young man.
"Are you from the guild?" Ernest waved to Gene first.
Then he turned his head and asked Fanti, "Your people?"
Fanti stared at Gene who was trotting over and shook his head, "No, but it's a rare Tyrannosaurus suit, plus that pale greatsword.
I kind of know who he is.
One of the new generation of strong men, the Seven Star Hunter Gene from Pokai Village. "
Ernest hummed. He had heard Gordon tell him something about the young man.
Before he could ask him what he was going to do in the city, Gene, who was running over, said, "I can feel that guy coming!"
"That rascal?"
"It's that black dragon! You know it, right?" Gene had never known what "hesitation" and "embarrassment" meant, and he immediately began to describe the scene from his nightmare.
"It's the kind of black dragon that burns down the world!"
As insiders, Ernest and President Vanti immediately realized what he was talking about.
President Fanti quickly asked, "What do you mean by you can feel it? Can you sense that black dragon?"
Without waiting for Gene to answer, the lady president whispered to herself with a look of understanding, "Yes, I understand, you are the hunter of Pokai Village.
Having touched that great sword before, it’s not surprising that I have developed some strange induction into it.”
Gene blinked.
Doesn't he need to explain it? It's enough for a man to have momentum!
Putting aside the causes and consequences, Gene quickened his pace and said, "The people in the city have basically dispersed, but there are still many people gathered in the suburbs who haven't had time to leave.
If that black dragon's breath were to fly back and forth in the air a few times, the casualties would be terrifyingly large.
I plan to go back to the empty city, create some noise, and lure it into the city to hold it there, buying some time for the people to evacuate!"
Ernest nodded heavily, "I'll go with you."
"Me too." President Fanti pulled off her complicated hair accessories and took off her robe, revealing the "Qilin X" protective gear wrapped inside.
"Phew~!"
Gene whistled with a smile, earning a glare from the president, who was old enough to be his grandmother.
Then, she grabbed the huge hunting bow and quiver leaning against the wall and put them on her back, "Xia Zuo, can you still wield the two swords?"
“Of course.” The gray-haired double swordsman rubbed the Tyrant’s Fury in his hands, “I’m not that old yet.”
"That's good." President Fanti nodded with satisfaction, "Miles, you continue to organize the evacuation.
Prevent the evacuation team from crowding together, disperse away from the main road and hide in the forest hills.
We can ask Elu to lead the way. The monsters around here should have run away long ago. It would be safer to follow them into the mountains."
Miles sighed.
Although he has been retired for many years and still has the determination to fight again, his physical condition is no longer suitable for joining a battle of this level.
And the work of organizing evacuation is even more important.
"I understand. Take it easy. I don't want to hear any more bad news."
"Don't worry! I will protect the old guys!" Gene gave a thumbs up.
Although he couldn't say he knew Gene, let alone was familiar with him, Ernest still couldn't help but slap Gene on the back of his head.
"Bang!"
"Stop playing tricks. How long will it take for the Black Dragon to arrive?"
Ernest's method and tone of pulling his head reminded Gene of Gordon. He scratched his neck and said, "I can't really tell. Maybe a few minutes? Maybe half an hour? Anyway, it will be very soon!"
"Time is running out, follow me!"
After completing her armament, President Vanti, who had transformed from an elegant lady into a seasoned female huntsman, led the charge into the city.
The other three followed closely behind.
Considering that the evacuation of the city was basically over, but there would always be people who chose to stay and hide at home, Fanti did not go towards the residential area.
Instead, he and his companions headed straight towards the port of Minagard.
The Metabetat Port tragedy that year made them afraid to organize the evacuation of a large number of citizens by sea.
The deserted port of Minagard with few buildings is the best battlefield.
"How do you think we can better attract the black dragon's attention?" Fanti stopped and asked Gene.
Gene's previous words made them misjudge that "this young man from Pokai Village might know more about the Black Dragon."
"You're asking me?" Gene pointed at himself, his face full of question marks.
Did I hear the name Black Dragon from you?
But he never knew what stage fright was.
"You can ask me, there are only a few ways, such as firing flares, releasing aura, flash bombs, dye balls, etc.
Huh? Are there still cannons on that ship over there? We can also use the sound of the cannons to attract it!"
Apart from anything else, the suggestions Gene made are quite constructive.
"Then let's try several methods at once." The lady president took out some props such as flares and flash bombs from the prop bag and stuffed them into the hands of Gene and Ernest.
"You guys stay at the dock and try to attract its attention so that it will land here. Xia Zuo and I will go to the ship and prepare to use the artillery."
"okay!"
“Roar, boom—!”
A loud noise that was hard to tell whether it was a dragon's roar or thunder penetrated the thick dark clouds and came from the sky.
The hunters all looked up.
A dark shadow descended from the clouds and slowly approached this side.
A heart-pounding atmosphere of terror hung over everyone's heart.
"The battle begins!"
The lady president shouted softly, and rushed towards the large ship used for hunting sea beasts not far away with Xia Zuo.
Gene and Ernest looked at each other, each picked up a flare and fired it into the air.
Ps.
Because he is not an important character, maybe it is easy to forget? Vanti is the president of Minagard. The protagonist appeared many times when he was in Minagard, and then participated in the command during the battle to block the old mountain dragon. He was once a very powerful hunter.
Xia Zuo is an eight-star double-sword user of Minagard. He has appeared several times and also participated in the Laoshan Dragon Blocking Battle.
