"so good"
Gail was holding a gnawed rib of lamb chops in her mouth. After finishing her lunch, she was still muttering, "I also want a serious and easy title like Hayata."
"As for 'Ms. Nirma', just think about it as much as you want." Anhil sneered.
"***I will die with you!"
Gordon Hayata and the others spent some effort to pull the two apart and push them back to their seats.
Fortunately, it is not uncommon for people to get drunk and fight in public taverns, and their location is relatively remote, so they did not attract too much attention.
At the table, the master holding a cup of hot tea looked at this scene with a smile and did not stop it.
Young people, it’s better to be more energetic.
"Master, why did the great elder summon us this afternoon?" Gordon put an arm on Ancier's shoulder, suppressing him, and asked the master, "Isn't it another urgent task?"
The master put down his tea cup and said, "No, with the great elder's impatience, if it is an urgent task, he will only summon you immediately instead of setting a time to summon you."
"Too."
"Relax, it should be a good thing, cough cough." The master took a sip of hot tea to relieve his cough, and looked at Gale, "Gale should also have received the summons notice, right?"
"Yes."
"That's right. The reward for the defense of Styracosaurus should be a commendation meeting."
Gordon nodded, as he thought.
"By the way, Gordon, did the Great Elder tell you anything before?" The master narrowed his eyes and asked, "The Great Elder called me yesterday and praised you and Julius.
Ke Ke said that I have two good disciples and led two good teams and so on, then he laughed and let me go. "
Gordon probably guessed what the Great Elder was referring to. He crossed his arms and said, "Didn't the Great Elder intend to promote a few of us after the defense of Metabetate? We used the excuse that the interval between our last promotions was too short. Declined.
The great elder said at that time that he would promote us after we hunt the ancient dragon species next time.
I thought it would be a long time later, and then the Styracosaurus happened to attack."
"It's true, cough." Master Jiang's expression was a little helpless, "Julius and Bi are in the same situation. After defeating the rusty steel dragon, the great elder also wanted to promote them.
From this point of view, summoning you this time is likely to be a large-scale collective promotion. "
Anhil was a little confused, "Master Campbell, why is the Great Elder so eager to promote us high-ranking hunters?
We are seven stars or eight stars, is there any essential difference?
It's just a name. It doesn't mean that by being promoted to eight stars, we will become stronger.
If there is a real crisis, will seven-star hunters or eight-star hunters be drafted equally? "
"Anhil, you are right, cough, cough, cough."
The master took a breath and continued: "In fact, many of the tasks you have performed in recent years have exceeded the difficulty standard of seven-star tasks. The great elder promoted you to eight-stars not out of consideration of 'ease of use'"
"What's that for?" Anhir asked.
The master was silent for a moment and did not answer immediately. Instead, he got up and took everyone to a quiet room on the second floor of the tavern. After closing the door, he said:
"With your hunter level, you will soon be exposed to this information. Please keep it confidential."
The hunters nodded one after another, and even Feng Ying and Gale became serious.
"In recent years, Gulong incidents have occurred frequently. The causes of each incident seem to be unrelated, but in terms of overall data.
Let's put it this way, do you know how much the incidence rate of cologne-related incidents in the past two years has increased compared to ten years ago? "
"How many?"
The master raised three fingers.
"Thirty percent?" Anhir asked.
"Three times."
"."
The master stroked the umbrella handle in his palm and continued: "So, over the years, in places where you can't see, ahem, the guild has made a lot of layouts and preparations. This includes, but is not limited to, urging guilds to build new fortresses and expand. Training camps, expanding recruitment of hunter students, encouraging hunters to take disciples, etc.
It should be a long time since you have learned about the situation of the one-star and two-star missions, right?
Cough cough cough. In the past two years, due to the graduation and influx of a large number of novice hunters, today's low-star missions, not to mention the backlog, may even be in short supply. "
Gordon scratched his chin. He really hadn't paid attention to this for a long time.
But he still remembered that when he first became a one-star hunter, the various collection tasks and the tasks of defeating small monsters were too many to handle.
The master continued: "After the bottom-level strength is sufficient, or even surplus, the guild began to relax the promotion restrictions layer by layer.
For example, you had to complete thirty one-star missions before you were eligible to take the initiative to receive the assessment mission for promotion to two stars. Now, it has been reduced to 25 times, and in some local guilds it has been reduced to twenty times. "
Hayata's eyes widened, "In this case, wouldn't the casualty rate of the promotion mission increase a lot?"
"Yes, cough cough cough." The master's expression was slightly gloomy, "Although when promotion restrictions are being relaxed, guilds in various places have repeatedly emphasized that novice hunters are warned to act within their capabilities.
However, the casualty rate of the assessment task has still risen significantly. "
Ancier looked serious, but he agreed with the guild's approach, "The guild will not force low-star hunters to be promoted. If you feel inadequate, no one will care about you if you do a hundred one-star tasks and then get promoted.
The guild hopes to improve the quantity and quality of the entire hunter group from bottom to top.
Young hunters who are motivated and talented will come out faster.
If this momentum continues, in another five years or at most ten years, the younger generation of high-level hunters will emerge in large numbers, and the number of four- and five-star elite hunters will also increase greatly.
Only in this way can we maintain an advantage in the next 'species competition'.
Otherwise, ancient dragons would appear frequently and attack cities, but the number of hunters would not increase, and a large number of hunters would be sacrificed, cities would fall one by one, the population base would decrease, forming a vicious circle, and it would not be impossible for human civilization to be destroyed. "
"Is this, such an exaggeration?" Feng Ying stuttered, "There is also the Great Elder. Isn't the Great Elder super strong? A monster like Styracosaurus can be chopped down with one knife. With him here, there will be no problem, right?"
The master shook his head, "Unless taboos are involved, the great elder will not take action. Well, by using his sword this time, he has already violated the 'not to interfere' agreement with the hero and the craftsman.
That stubborn old man blamed himself very much. "
"But, why?" Feng Ying continued to ask.
Gordon interrupted her, "Parents have to take action in everything. Children cannot grow up. Although parents live long lives, they are already old and will pass away one day.
If children are protected too well and have no ability to protect themselves, they will not survive in a future full of dangers. "
Feng Ying understood the meaning and closed her mouth.
"So, what does this have to do with the promotion of a high-level hunter?" Gale asked confused.
“As the leaders of the younger generation, we are the role models and goals for young hunters. Only when we stand high enough and perform dazzlingly enough can we be called role models.
Besides, don't we go up and stay where we are as goalkeepers? "Anshir, who had already understood everything, said casually.
"It feels weird." Hayata sighed softly.
As a "role model" who was almost picked up to hang on the wall, she was quite repulsed by this kind of promotion with other purposes.
Knowing what Hayata was struggling with, the master patted her on the shoulder, "Don't think too much, you have grown up now, and you can shoulder this honor and responsibility, ahem."
Speaking of this, Master Jiang glanced at Feng Ying and said with a smile: "Maybe your descendants will catch up soon?"
Hayata was startled. She thought of Feng Ying who had just come of age, Lie Yan in Yanhuo Village, Aiden in Pen, and Jean in Bokai Village.
There are also "newcomers" from all over the world who are working hard to climb up.
She was also relieved, "Yes, if we don't speed up our pace, we may be overtaken in a few years."
Ps.
Don't think about the "darkness of the guild". The hunter guild in this book is still very decent. This part of the description is just to rationalize the "quick promotion".
In fact, the further into the writing process, the more obvious this problem becomes. Are the protagonists promoted quickly?Of course it's fast, it's a bit unreasonable to be so close, but
For example, you will understand this distress. One month after Luffy defeated Doflamingo with great difficulty, he defeated Kaido.
It seems that only half a year has passed in Tian Hui Long, but the chapters are almost [-]. If we don’t fast forward the timeline, the curve of time and experience growth will be very sharp.
But if you pull the timeline, the protagonists are not immortals after all, and if you pull the timeline frequently, they will suddenly become middle-aged.
In fact, his strength has reached the standard, and he has killed several unblocked monsters. If Gordon is still forced to stay at seven stars, everyone will probably feel uncomfortable.
This is the only way it feels more reasonable.
