Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Gordon still couldn't rest.

Especially when the ground began to tremble and the rumble of mountain collapse came from the direction of the Grand Canyon, as the leader of the investigation squad and the actual person in charge of this operation, he thought that he should go over and take a look.

This time, Anhil didn't stop him. He just watched him personally and didn't let him take away the bomb barrel.

Alva also followed. He was also very concerned about how the Molten Dragon broke through the Grand Canyon. As for the camp relocation, the young editors were quite capable anyway.

After quickly checking the equipment, the two set off on the pterosaur and flew towards the Grand Canyon.

After flying for a little more than a quarter of an hour, they came back to the sky above Laoshan Dragon.

The attacking team has all retreated. At this time, the Molten Mountain Dragon is climbing over the mountain. The movements are large and frequent. It is too risky to force the attack on its back and is unnecessary.

The way the Lava Mountain Dragon breaks through the mountain barrier is very direct.

It didn't use volcanic magma to bombard mountains as everyone suspected, nor did it use any unprecedented ability to break rocks. It just kept moving forward like a mindless machine.

It used its hind limbs to support its body, stood up slowly, and then leaned heavily on the nearly vertical cliff. The mountain range that was supposed to be extremely strong suddenly collapsed, and it also fell back to the ground along with the collapsed rock.

Repeat this step over and over again.

The mountains that blocked the investigation team from exploring northward were like the sandcastles that children built on the beach.

It seems tall and strong, but once you step on it, it will continue to collapse because it cannot support it.

This is where the continuous loud noise came from.

Alva was stunned for a long time with his mouth wide open, and then he loudly said to Gordon who was not far away: "Now I know that your decision to prevent the Commander-in-Chief from building the wall is absolutely correct.

No mountain can stop such a creature, let alone a crumbling wooden wall?

Speaking of which, what is the geology of the New World like? How do the plates change to form such a messy terrain? ! "

Gordon didn't bother to answer Alva's questions. He just stared at the lava dragon who was trying to break through the mountains.

Its pace is firm, yet very awkward.

This molten mountain dragon is too old, and its remaining life is like a candle in the wind. The instinct of death and the mysterious call force it to continue moving forward.

The hunters' constant harassment and attacks only intensified the consumption of its physical strength.

It can be said that this is the weakest moment since it grew into an adult, and this "record" is being refreshed every moment.

This is certainly good news for the investigation team.

But it may not only be humans who are waiting for this good news.

"Alva! Be alert to the surrounding airspace!" Gordon suddenly shouted and reminded, while he looked away from the Molten Dragon and looked around.

Alva was stunned for a moment.

alert? What to be wary of?

But he quickly reacted and his expression also became serious.

Where did Nergigante go? When does it appear?

These days, everyone has been discussing this issue.

The most ideal answer is, of course, that the Nergigante was just passing by by chance at the time, and its appearance had nothing to do with the Molten Dragon. It has now returned to the north of the continent and will not appear again.

But even the most optimistic people would not foolishly accept this answer as the truth.

A theory that is more recognized by everyone is that Nergigante is waiting for the opportunity.

If it is a relatively healthy Lava Dragon, even if it exhausts the Nergigante to death, it will be difficult to break through the former's defense with its minions. After all, there is nearly a thousand times the size difference between the two.

So Nergigante is probably waiting until Molten Dragon becomes weak enough before it takes action.

This is also the reason why Ancil wants to remove the Silverborder Team from the attack sequence and be on standby as a precautionary measure.

And now, looking at the Molten Dragon that keeps moving forward, breaking through the mountain barrier bit by bit, and occasionally slipping due to unsteady steps.

Gordon puts himself into the perspective of a Nergigante hunter. This moment is undoubtedly the best time to attack!

As if to confirm his guess, a dark dot emerged from the northern sky and continued to expand, approaching rapidly.

A familiar roar came from afar, it was Nergigante!

"One o'clock!" Gordon shouted.

Alva quickly pulled down the telescope above his head and looked over there. At the same time, he put his hand into his bag, preparing to take out the flare and send out a distress signal.

But his movements paused when he caught the flare.

Why send a signal?

The hunters of the attack team had already withdrawn, and the target of the Nergigante's attack was the Molten Dragon they wanted to "capture".

So, this should be considered good news?

"Don't send a signal!" Gordon shouted, "Land immediately and find a place to hide!"

Gordon had similar thoughts, but he didn't want to continue floating in the sky.

In case the Nergigante discovered their presence after flying close, they decided to eliminate the off-site threats first. They wouldn't even have a chance to resist while hanging on the pterosaur.

Urging the Acid Pterosaur, who was a little panicked by the appearance of the Nergigante, to descend, the two finally landed on a tall ant mound.

The surface of the giant anthill was uneven, making it easy to hide, and the field of vision was wide enough. The two of them put on their invisibility clothes and began to observe in secret.

The only drawback was that the transport ants in the ant mound didn't seem to welcome the two uninvited guests. They crawled all over them, so the two could only endure it.

Fortunately, Nergigante didn't notice the existence of the two of them. It's possible that he noticed it but didn't care.

"Hooga——!"

It flew quickly to the sky above the Molten Dragon, spread its wings wide, and let out a menacing roar.

But the Molten Mountain Dragon seemed not to hear it at all, and continued to rush and climb on its own, using its size and weight to break through the barrier formed by the cliffs little by little.

Realizing that he had been ignored, Nergigante's pupils turned scarlet due to congestion, and all the shiny black thorns on his body stood up.

"Gah!" After another furious roar, the Nergigante flapped its wings and rushed into the clouds.

Then, it was like a dark meteorite, falling from the sky with astonishing power, and dived at extremely high speed towards the arduous Laoshan Dragon.

Gordon touched the scar on his cheek and muttered, "My dear, this move is very powerful, don't slap the Molten Dragon to death.

No, it’s better to shoot him to death. Come on, Nergigante! "

Not paying attention to Gordon's muttering to himself, and not even bothering to pay attention to the moving ants crawling into the seams of his clothes, Alva held the drawing board and quickly described everything he saw.

Under the nervous and expectant gazes of the two people, the Nergigante struck the Molten Dragon hard on the head.

"boom--!"

Lava Mountain Dragon, who had no concept of "dodge" in his mind, was knocked to the side by the blow and almost fell to the ground.

But it quickly regained its center of gravity, stood up slowly, and let out a dull growl.

Judging from the reaction of the Molten Dragon, this blow was undoubtedly effective. Gordon felt that if the Nergigante could strike ten or eight times in a row, he might be able to kill the Molten Dragon in one fell swoop.

But such an attack is not easy for the Nergigante. Looking at its embarrassed appearance with most of its thorns broken into pieces, you can tell that the impact also caused a lot of recoil damage to it.

But the Nergigante would not give up so easily. It roared wildly and spread its wings, and the thorns all over its body regenerated rapidly.

He fluttered his wings and flew quickly in front of Laoshan Dragon, about to launch the next round of offensive.

Unexpectedly, Laoshan Dragon suddenly shook its head.

The head, which was bigger than the Nergigante's entire body, hit him. If the collision was real, even with the Nergigante's body strength, it would definitely not be easy.

The Nergigante's wings flapped sharply, and he quickly retreated a distance, avoiding the collision, and landed on the mostly collapsed cliff.

The two ancient dragons started a confrontation.
