Chapter 1052 White Wind of the Old World

On the sea surface several kilometers away from the coastline of the New World, a sea ship dropped anchor and anchored here.

On the deck, Az, wearing a Transformed Ice Shark X, looked at the length of the chain on the winch and roughly judged the depth of the seabed here.

His expression became a little embarrassed, "It's a bit deep."

Behind him, followed a young hunter with similar equipment but more restrained style.

He is Az's fellow villager, named Moka, a four-star hunter who is one of the members of the fifth group, and also a seaman.

If it weren't for his arrival, Az would not have known that there were a group of his admirers among the young seamen in Moga Village, and there were several more young people in the village who chose to become hunters.

Everyone regards the Transformed Ice Shark suit as fashionable.

This set of armor is indeed easy to use and practical for seamen who are good at water battles. Of course, there is no young seaman who can hunt countless Transformed Ice Sharks like Az and select materials to create Transformed Ice Shark X (upper).

But the ordinary version of the Transformed Ice Shark also has quite good performance.

"Brother Az, the ocean currents around here are also very chaotic. Can we really find the sunken ship?" Moka stared at the sea for a while and muttered.

"It's hard to say. We have to give it a try. So many precious materials and equipment fell below. We can salvage as much as we can." Az said, pulling down the fully sealed full-covering mask.

Moka also took a deep breath slowly with him, and the two sea dwellers jumped into the sea one after another.

The huge volcanic rock discovered by Feng Ying and Ai Bo provided direction for the investigation team.

Under the arrangement of the commander-in-chief, many investigation teams adjusted their investigation plans and focused on exploring the adjacent areas where the volcanic rock appeared.

Several days passed like this, and the information collected by the investigation teams and scholars was summarized to the headquarters.

The commander-in-chief convened the heads of various departments for a meeting.

Gordon, who was notified, hurried to the headquarters. In addition to those familiar old faces, Gordon also found a figure he did not expect.

"Feng Ying? Are you here for the meeting too?"

Feng Ying crossed her arms and puffed her lips, "Really, Master Gordon, I am the leader of the Fifth Group after all!"

Gordon opened his mouth, pointed at Feng Ying and looked at Zhu Chai behind him, with a look of surprise on his face, "Just this guy?"

Zhu Chai's ears trembled, "After all, she is the strongest hunter among the Fifth Group. I did hear a member of the Fifth Group calling her 'Leader' when greeting her a while ago.

Some people also call her 'Master Bai Feng'."

"Master Bai Feng?" Gordon repeated the honorific.

Feng Ying was a little embarrassed now. She explained with a dry laugh, "'Bai Feng' is, it's our title in the Old World. Of course, no one in the New World has heard of it, hahaha

As for 'Master' or something, maybe that member is a Chinese, so he is more accustomed to this title?"

Gordon stroked his chin, thinking about the meaning of the title "Bai Feng".

Wind symbolizes nothing more than "speed", which Feng Ying now fully deserves. What does "white" mean? Is it the color of fighting spirit under certain circumstances, like Hayata's "Red Blade"?

It seems that in some areas of the north, "white wind" also means blizzard, which may also mean this?

While he was thinking, the commander-in-chief walked into the headquarters quickly.

He seemed to have heard some of the conversation between Feng Ying and Gordon. When he walked past Feng Ying, he patted her on the back and said with a smile, "I hope that one day you can also become the 'White Wind of the New World'. I believe that day will not be too far away.

Well, everyone has expired, let's start the meeting."

The people who were originally whispering to each other fell silent.

"Based on the clues found by the investigation team in the ancient tree forest, scholars have speculated that the direction of the Molten Mountain Dragon should be towards the east, that is, the Great Ant Mound Wasteland.

The next investigation center will be transferred there. I will arrange a group of scholars to go there in advance. The Great Ant Mound Wasteland has not been peaceful recently, and their team needs the protection of hunters.

Is the adaptive training of the hunters of the Fifth Regiment almost completed?"

The commander-in-chief asked this question while looking at Gordon and Feng Ying. One of them is the squad leader of the investigation team, theoretically the "head" of all the field investigators of the investigation team, and the other is the leader of the Fifth Regiment. The newcomers are all her members.

"The hunters are no problem." Gordon nodded and said, "The hunters of the Fifth Regiment are also veterans. They adapt quickly and can be put into various tasks.

But some of the compilers have no experience in field operations before, and may need to adapt for a while."

He did not mean to look down on the compilers, but this is the fact.

There is no such profession as "editor" in the Old World. The new editors who come to the New World are basically members of the Scribe Corps, young scholars, or civilian staff such as poster girls with outstanding performance.

Except for the Scribe Corps scribes who will participate in field investigations, few people have experience in field operations.

Even if they have received intensive training before coming to the New World, at least they have passed the basic physical fitness test, but to become a mature editor, it will take some time to adapt and run-in.

"Is that so." The commander-in-chief thought for a while, "No problem, let the editors continue to act with their partner hunters, and at the same time emphasize concealment and self-protection training.

We don't have time for the editors to adapt slowly, so we can only let them grow in practice."

After all, the investigators of the previous years also went through this.

"Understood."

"I will also remind everyone to let experienced members help inexperienced newcomers." Feng Ying added.

The commander-in-chief nodded and said in a serious tone: "The fifth batch of the group has just arrived in the New World. There are too many places that need manpower, and the shortage of supplies caused by the shipwreck also needs to be made up.

Unfortunately, we can't put too much manpower on the matter of Molten Mountain Dragon, but this matter cannot be ignored. We decided to send a small number of elites to follow up throughout the process.

Feng Ying, you are responsible for investigating the traces and behavior of Molten Mountain Dragon. You lead the members of the recommendation team to escort the scholars' convoy to the Great Ant Mound Wasteland and conduct an investigation."

"Understood." Feng Ying answered straightforwardly.

"Supply squad leader, have you sorted out the list of lost supplies?"

The supply squad leader looked tired, and even dark circles could be seen on his dark face.

"It's sorted out. The other parts are easy to deal with. The main loss is a large number of gunpowder raw materials and the equipment of elite hunters.

I have asked Az to salvage as much as possible, hoping to salvage at least a few pieces of equipment. As for the gunpowder raw materials, they must be useless."

The expression on Feng Ying's face switched back and forth between disappointment and expectation, which was very complicated.

The commander-in-chief thought for a few seconds and said: "Arrange personnel to speed up the collection. Director of the Plant Research Institute, suspend the plan to use our ancient trees to cultivate other plants, and focus on promoting the growth of gunpowder grass.

We may face a war next. Gunpowder is the most critical material and cannot be lacking.

The head of the second phase group, the processing house has recently shifted its focus to the manufacture of artillery shells and heavy crossbow arrows.

The leader of the material team, record and report the storage of these strategic materials at any time."

"Understood!" Everyone responded.

At the end of the meeting, Gordon suddenly raised his hand.

The commander-in-chief shifted his gaze.

"Commander-in-chief, I'm applying for a period of time away from home."

"Reason?"

"When our special investigation team just arrived in the New World, we had an encounter with the ancient dragon man in the ancient tree forest. He was very vague at the time, but mentioned that 'chaos would come' and 'a few years later'.

He may know something about the Molten Mountain Dragon, and I plan to investigate it myself."

"Ask the ancient dragon man for help? This is indeed an idea." The commander-in-chief nodded and agreed, "I'll leave this to you."

Ps.

With so many more "doers" than in the game plot, the progress of the investigation will definitely be accelerated. Otherwise, it would be too mysterious if Feng Ying was the only one working while the others were all slacking off.
