The defeat of the dragons meant one thing: the most powerful creature on the planet had been defeated!
Not just one, but an entire group.
They could fly.
They could breathe fire.
With the strongest bodies and the sharpest claws, such a group was easily defeated. Moreover, it was just one person, a Level-50 Gold Hunter with a Magic Gun. When the major forces heard the news, all the Magic Gun Hunters felt that their achievements had been fed to the dogs. From the perspective of a normal person, a Level-50 Magic Gun Hunter would most likely die against a giant dragon.
Now, a hunter had single-handedly slaughtered a large group of them.
"I think what we should do now is not to be surprised, but to submit hunting missions." The major forces had their own territories, those steel cities.
"That's right. Our most elite forces are defending against the dragons and giants. If Mr. Long can eliminate a large number of them, we can save a lot of unnecessary military forces and deploy them to deal with the beasts near the cities. This way, our cities can continue to expand and even add a few new cities. "The forces of the families here were different from the void. They were mortals.
As mortals, their lives were limited.
Because of that, they had to seize every opportunity. They even gambled with their lives for the future.
The biggest difference between mortals and mages was that mages liked to think, while mortals liked to fight. Because mages lived too long, they had all the time to prove right and wrong. But mortals couldn't. Their lives were very short. For example, whether planting a giant tree was good or bad, mages could experiment and spend a hundred years watching the tree grow and its various effects. Mortals, on the other hand, didn't have such a long life, not even generation after generation.
"Regardless of whether Mr. Long is friend or foe, the giant dragon must be the enemy."
"That's right."
In the minds of mortals, bad things had to be solved first, and there was no time to argue about right and wrong.
Especially in this Magic Gun World, arguing about right and wrong was the behavior of fools. For example, giant beasts like the giant dragon that ate people and burned cities, if they were all killed, the sky would fall and the earth would crack. This had nothing to do with whether mortals were short-sighted or not, but their lifespans determined that they could only "solve" problems first, and not "hold meetings" to study problems.
Soon.
The Tang Tong Army received countless hunting missions, and without exception, they were either to kill giant dragons or giants.
Everyone in the army also knew that these missions were for Mr. Long.
"Sure."
"Mr Long, this might take a long time. We need to fly somewhere." Tang Tong knew that Mr Long's main goal was to "level up" and was not interested in making money. With a Level-50 Magic Gun, Mr Long could become a Castellan if he joined any family. He could even lie down and count money.
"I need materials," Tang Shidao explained.
"Mr Long, the entire Tang Family will do our best to collect them for you. With the dragons you've killed as the goods, we can buy all of those materials at a fair price. "
"Yes, I understand. However, every family and every city has some specialties. "
"This …"
"They won't sell this kind of thing because it's very rare. They will definitely research it as a collectible. Now, they need me to hunt the giant beasts, they have to take it out. Tell them, "I don't want too much, just a small portion for the experiment." In addition, I also want the abandoned demonic blunderbusses and the condemned criminals. "Tang Shidao stated his conditions, and he believed that the major families would not refuse.
"Okay, we won't ask what you do." Tang Tong strictly followed the cooperation agreement.
"One more thing. The planets in the Magic Gun World all have a thin fog. I don't think it's absolutely safe. My personal suggestion is that the major families form a common planetary defense force and work together to eliminate the hidden dangers on the planet. Then, actively train and wait for the unknown changes. I'll be frank. According to the rules of nature, if you kill a large number of top predators, the low-level predators will explode. "
"For example?"
"For example, if you have cats and rats in your home and kill the cats, the rats will definitely explode. If I kill all the giant dragons, the 'prey' the giant dragons will eat will definitely increase. This is an ordinary place, but it's not a mortal area. There's magic energy here. Therefore, I think this biological explosion will happen in a very short time, a year, or even less. "
"I understand. I'll inform the major families and listen to their opinions. However, we're afraid of giant dragons, giant lizards, and giant fish. "
"It's good that you're prepared."
"Mr Long, do you have any other orders?" Tang Tong wasn't afraid when he heard about the biological explosion, because compared to a giant dragon that could fly and breathe fire, a group of ordinary giant beasts would be fine. The main combat power of the Magic Gun World was the iron airship, which belonged to the air turrets and bombers. Without a giant dragon that could fly, there was no need to be afraid of a giant disaster. At most, the ships would come out together and burn the wilderness.
"There is indeed an unanswered question." Tang Shidao thought for a moment.
"Mr Long, please speak."
"According to you, researching high-tech will attract more powerful giant beasts."
"Yes, it will definitely happen. Mr Long, that's not an ordinary giant beast. In historical records, giant beasts that are a few hundred meters long are just small guys. This planet has a mythical record: in a period of super-advanced technology, when the end of the world came, thirty-six giant beasts that were larger than planets appeared from the nebula. They destroyed all the interstellar fleets and satellite bases. Except for a small number of people living underground, everything on the surface of the planet was reduced to slag. "
"And then?"
"We don't know because the technical records have been broken, and only the oral accounts of the survivors are left. According to the oral accounts, these giant beasts finished their destruction, and their roars disappeared 100 days later. At that time, no one dared to come out of the ground, and no one saw with their own eyes whether they were dead or not. They lived quietly in the caves for more than ten years, and when they explored again, it was already a jungle wilderness. "
"The mist has always been there?"
"Yes, it has always been there. After that 'myth' whose authenticity is unknown, no one tried high-tech again. There is also a small rumor that there was even more high-tech before the end of the world, and more than once. But the result was the same, and each time it was close to extinction. We don't know why the giant beasts didn't destroy the planet, but we can guess that even if we beat them, there will be a stronger group coming next time. "
"Are there any planets that are completely destroyed?" Tang Shidao suddenly asked.
"Yes. Some planets don't have many people left, and they can't survive underground. Even if everyone has a Magic Gun, the underground monsters are still very powerful. The most shameful thing is that some people deliberately developed technology and led to the appearance of countless fear monsters underground. "
"And they were all destroyed?"
"Yes. Internal strife, malicious technology, or an unsuitable environment caused many planets to be completely destroyed. Of course, there are a lot of creatures on them, and the natural environment is indestructible. Even if it is destroyed, it can be reborn. "
"How are these planets now?" Tang Shidao already had an idea.
"Some of them are occupied by powerful families, and they built a small number of steel cities. Some of them are empty, and some are waiting for the natural environment to return to its original state. "
"Enter through the Magic Gun Teleporter?"
"Yes."
"Alright, Captain Tang. Send someone to find an uninhabited planet. It would be best if it's deserted."
"That's easy."
"Then, send people to hire some scholars …"
"Mr. Long, you want to develop technology?"
"Yes, but not here. It's on another uninhabited planet …"
"No, no, no, Mr. Long, it's useless. Even if you research and manufacture there, it won't work here. The creation and use of high-tech items are the same, and the result will definitely attract monsters. The more advanced the technology, the more monsters will be attracted. Mr. Long, I don't know what you want to do, but researching technology is definitely not a good thing. "Tang Tong was almost begging.
They had agreed not to ask for the reason.
However, he would never agree to develop technology, and he would never agree to give up on the cooperation.
"You misunderstand, Captain Tang. I'm hiring people to research, not to manufacture and use. The finished products will be left on that uninhabited planet. You can understand, right? I'm making bait, and I need a powerful monster to appear. "
"I'm afraid our military power is not enough …"
"No, this is my problem alone. You and the scholars have to prepare the fastest airship, and escape immediately if there's any danger. If the monsters can catch up, you can also destroy the portal. Dealing with the monsters is my problem alone, and it has nothing to do with you and your planet. "
"…" Tang Tong understood.
He really understood.
After killing the giant dragon, Mr. Long no longer had any "opponents."
Now.
He needed a stronger opponent.
"Mr. Long, have you ever thought of one thing: You can't lose. Once you lose, you can't survive. You can't escape from a monster stronger than the giant dragon, "Tang Tong said after a long silence.
"Yes, so I need to keep winning."
"…" Tang Tong was completely speechless.
At this second.
Tang Tong truly understood the difference between mortals and gods: the latter never took danger seriously. When he mentioned the "planet-sized monster" just now, Mr. Long's reaction was like hearing a big ant, without the slightest fear. As the clan leader said, you can't persuade these travelers, because the difference in thinking between the two sides is too great.
Finally.
Tang Tong nodded. "We need a guarantee. If the monster might invade our planet, we must blow up the abandoned magic gun teleporter."
"Of course, I agree with what you're doing."
"Then I'll inform the clan leader?"
"You can tell everyone, I don't mind."
"…"
Tang Tong was speechless. Mr. Long had already made up his mind. If the Tang family didn't help, he would find another way.
Two days later.
He truthfully reported to Clan Leader Tang Xiu.
Unexpectedly, the old clan leader said "naturally", "Mr. Long is not the first traveler to do this, and I believe he won't be the last."
Tang Tong didn't believe it.
The old clan leader smiled and shook his head. "It's true. The clan leaders all know, but the average person doesn't. In order to prevent travelers from doing their own research, we will take the initiative to do it for them. Because it's better for them to cause trouble on an uninhabited planet than on our planet. Of course, there aren't many travelers with this kind of courage. You go and prepare. This kind of thing can't be done in a year or so. The Tang family 100% agrees with the planetary defense force, and I believe no one will object. "
"When Mr. Long clears the giant dragons in the future, will there really be a biological explosion?"
"Yes, definitely. But, you know, we're afraid of the giant dragons, but we're not afraid of other weaker monsters, even if there are more of them. Tang Tong, you can't stop travelers from doing what they want to do, because they're gods. Their power is limited, but they're still gods. People like them will never stop 'climbing to a higher level'. "
"Yes." Tang Tong listened and passed on the message.
In less than a day.
The whole planet surged.
In addition to the exclamations of the major clans and major cities, travelers who had been quietly cultivating also "woke up" … The hunting season that truly belonged to them was coming.
