Chapter 236 The City of Hunters - East Doruma

The guild city East Doruma is located approximately in the center of the mainland, in the eastern part of the Shreid region.

The whole city was developed by the ancestors in the mountains on both sides of the strait.

The main source of power for the city is the inexhaustible ocean wind, or giant windmills that line the streets and valleys.

Because it is close to the sea, the surrounding rich sea resources ensure the food and economic sources that the residents depend on for survival.

The richness of the natural environment, coupled with the move-in of the Hunters Guild headquarters, led to a sharp rise in defense power. In recent centuries, this city can be said to have developed by leaps and bounds, so that it has the current size and mass.

Of course, there is still a considerable part of the reason, thanks to the leadership skills of the Great Elder.

As the most powerful leader in the history of the guild, he has always followed the life creed that empty talk is useless.

Under his leadership, facilities such as the guard corps, the ancient dragon observation station, the public wine field and the arena have grown in an orderly manner, and the entire stronghold built on the mountain has gradually developed into a super-large city that other strongholds cannot match.

And the huge city gate where Guta and the others are located at this time is the first fortification of East Doruma - the counterattack gate.

This is a large facility built along a mountain surrounded by a wide valley.

In order to face the monsters that invaded from time to time, a large number of large-scale city defense weapons such as dragon-striking guns and dragon-killing cannons were simultaneously set up on the walls at both ends of the huge city gate. There are also guards stationed and rotated at ordinary times.

Just like at this moment, noticing the approach of Guta and the others, a group of soldiers wearing knight armor rode chocobos and drove out from the passages on both sides of the city gate.

The counterattack door is usually not opened.

Considering the manpower required for each activation, this is a large-scale fortification that will only be opened temporarily when facing creatures of the order of ancient dragons
Most of the time, people enter and exit through the passages on both sides.

Of course, even the relatively "narrow" side doors are almost as wide as four lanes.

"Identity...the purpose of the visit." The leading soldier who couldn't see his face shouted loudly.

Because of wearing a closed helmet that completely covered the face, Guta and the others were unable to observe more details except that it was a female voice.

"Hello, we are hunters from the stronghold of Dede Village. We are here for..." Nia hurried to thousands and began to explain.

The ancient pagoda was a little bored at the side, just looking up at the corrosion marks on the high city wall.

"This kind of trace of destruction, why is it a bit like..." Guta was thinking about it, but suddenly there was a warning voice from the female guard behind him.

"After dawn, I hope you can go to the guild to register as soon as possible. This is different from other strongholds. There is a lot of traffic every day. It is also for the convenience of management. I hope you can understand."

"Okay, thank you for your reminder, we will go to check-in at dawn." Nia nodded.

The team continued to walk in, and quickly bypassed the fortifications full of fences at the door, and entered the city from the passage on the left.

After walking about ten meters inside, everyone's eyes suddenly brightened.

"Huh, this place is so big, much bigger than Paley." Guta scanned the huge street in front of him back and forth, as well as the strange buildings of different shapes lined up on both sides, and whistled involuntarily.

"Don't be like this, it's not good to wake people up at night."

Patting Guta on the shoulder angrily, Nia also looked around curiously.

The ancient pagoda has noticed that there is a rather large building near the corner of the street gate, and even the only passage leading to the city gate extends from there.

At the door of the building, there is a line of big characters written vaguely.

【Gulong Observatory】

"This is the famous Gulong Observatory?" Weiwei walked in slowly and noticed that there seemed to be a lot of pictures and notice boards posted near the wall.

"Changes in the price of Blue Velociraptor's material: the airbag part is raised by 1.5%, the sharp claws are reduced by 5%, and the crown remains unchanged." Weiwei read it out with style.

"It seems that there will be a unified price for monster materials here, so formal." Guta also came over, stretched his neck to look at the various monster material information on it, and then pointed to the far right A huge wooden board almost four or five meters high on the side.

There are several portraits of monsters of different sizes on it, and there are corresponding things that seem to be maps on the side.

"It will also provide the movement path of the ancient dragon in the near future, which is a bit powerful."

Observing ancient dragons is not an easy task.

Not to mention that the place where the ancient dragon passes will cause the corresponding natural disasters and the escape of local monsters. Even if you simply observe the ancient dragon from a distance, you may be attacked by the sensitive ancient dragon at any time.

The danger is quite great.

It would be fine if it was a mild-tempered Gu Long, but if it was a bloodthirsty one like Ji Mo, once he was targeted, he might not even have a chance to survive.

"It's strange, why do you feel that there are no people living in the houses next to you?" Guta scanned around and found that the nearby two-story houses with red paint on the top seemed to be in a state of wide open doors. It doesn't look like a living person.

Is there a housing glut?
Nia was the first to react to this, "This should be the rumored [Battle Street], so these houses are all empty."

"What do you mean?"

Guta looked at her suspiciously.

"As the name suggests, [Battle Street] is a venue specially used for hunters to meet incoming monsters. Of course, the monsters here mainly refer to ancient dragons."

Nia, who had done a considerable amount of homework in advance, began to talk.

"You also saw the oncoming gate just now, but that is only the first layer of defense. In fact, if the street gate cannot stop the monster and is broken into the inner area of ​​East Doruma by it, then the gate next to the [oncoming gate] This area will become the second battlefield for the hunters to fight against the ancient dragon, which is also the origin of the name [Battle Street] here."

Hearing this, no matter it was Guta, Weiwei, Qiao Qiao and others, they all reacted.

No wonder no one lived in these houses. After all, no one wanted to live in a place that might become a battlefield for ancient dragons at any time.

"Then if we want to stay, we have to walk a little further in?" The ancient pagoda looked far away, and soon noticed the flickering lights hundreds of meters away, and then asked himself: "Hey, it really is."

After walking a little further in, a burst of noisy noise almost flooded into everyone's ears like a tsunami.

There are brightly lit and strange buildings everywhere, and the streets are full of shouting peddlers and chaotic hunters, oh...of course there are also all the cats running around in the streets.

The night in East Doruma seems to be extraordinarily lively and prosperous.
