Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Gordon, who had not even completely stopped walking in front of the black dragon's head, raised his sword and began to accumulate power.

Feng Ying immediately launched a series of violent attacks to accumulate energy for the sword.

However, the black dragon's resilience was unexpectedly high.

The collision just now caused a large piece of the stone platform to fall off, but the black dragon did not seem to be seriously injured, nor did it fall into dizziness as everyone expected.

It just shook its head and quickly climbed up again.

Seeing this, Gordon did not hesitate to release the power-accumulating slash that had not yet accumulated to perfection.

It was better to have a weaker power than to miss the attack.

[Do not move] The sword slashed right on the top of the black dragon. As mentioned in the intelligence, the black dragon's head carapace was relatively weak.

The sword slashed like cutting a thick and hard piece of leather, and it was not so hard that the weapon bounced up.

The red arc of dragon-attribute energy jumped between the blade and the wound, continuously burning the black dragon's flesh and blood.

The black dragon raised its head and pushed the sword away.

The dragon's pupils turned, and a sharp sense of crisis came over Gordon, as if a steel needle was piercing his eyes. Gordon knew that he was being watched.

But he was not panicked, or rather, he was well prepared.

He quickly placed the [Immovable] greatsword in front of him, tightened his muscles, slightly bent his joints, and entered a smooth posture.

The black dragon that was hit by the sword really launched a counterattack immediately. It roared and swung its sharp claws, tearing at him.

At the moment when the sharp claws were about to hit him, Gordon swung his sword to meet it.

The sword blade and the dragon claw collided head-on, and the sharp sound of the collision could almost cut the eardrum.

"Clang——!"

The dragon claw that could easily tear apart steel was lifted up, and Gordon also slid back a distance under this huge force that was difficult to completely resolve.

This guy's figure seems to be well-proportioned and even slightly slender, but in terms of absolute strength, it is not inferior to monsters like Behemoth whose muscles are about to burst the skin.

The sharpness of the dragon claw is also somewhat beyond expectations.

In the head-on collision, several small cracks appeared on the smooth blade of the [Immovable] Great Sword.

This had never happened before. Whether facing a strong enemy like the original noble silver dragon or a taboo like the red dragon, the [Immovable] Great Sword was as solid and reliable as its name.

And the black dragon could actually destroy it.

"Hah--"

Gordon exhaled, cleared his distracting thoughts, and tried to dissolve the impact of the dragon claw while turning it into his own use.

The accumulation of power was completed in an instant.

"Really charged slash!"

The [Immovable] Great Sword swung down, and the black dragon reacted quickly, slightly retracting its neck backwards, and the blade passed in front of its nose and fell to the ground.

Before it could launch a further counterattack, Gordon used the tip of the sword as a fulcrum, turned over and jumped up, and the [Immovable] Great Sword slashed down with amazing power.

This time, the black dragon had no way to avoid it. The light golden blade slashed heavily on its head, splitting a bloody hole, and the dragon attribute energy that burst out exploded its head.

If it was an "ordinary" ancient dragon, even if it was not seriously injured by this sword, it would definitely have some flaws.

But the black dragon was aroused by its ferocity. Regardless of the severe pain in its head, it roared and turned its body, swinging its dragon tail to whip forward.

Facing the giant tail that broke through the wind like a long whip, Gordon entered the charging posture again.

Such an attack could not be forcibly blocked by a one-shot posture. Even if the blocking posture was not broken, it would be thrown away with the sword.

But he switched to the charging posture and entered the strong charging state as if he did not see the attacking dragon tail.

Because someone stood in front of him one step ahead.

Smashing the hot shield with the red shield turned on to the ground, Feng Ying swung countless insect silk with both hands, wrapped around the shield, and anchored herself firmly in place.

Fully charged defense.

In front of a strong enemy like the black dragon, [Dragon Mark] was also completely awakened.

Red light circulated between the gaps in the armor, providing her with powerful protection.

Feng Ying stabilized her center of gravity, her eyes locked onto the incoming giant tail through the glittering visor.

"Boom!"

With a loud noise like a cannonball, the dragon's tail slammed into the shield.

Under this huge force, the gleaming silk was broken one after another, but Feng Ying still maintained a defensive posture, and the steel teeth at the bottom of the shin armor plowed sparks on the masonry ground.

She retreated less than a meter before stopping her retreat and successfully resolved the black dragon's tail attack.

Gordon grinned, switched to a charging posture, and entered a true charging state.

Taking advantage of the impact of the black dragon's tail sweep, Feng Ying completed the charging. She seized the short interval after the black dragon's attack, inserted the sword into the shield, and switched the weapon to the giant axe mode.

Taking a big step forward, raising her body and swinging her arms, the high-speed rotating [Silver Carving Axe] turned into a blurry silver light, and smashed down at the black dragon that had just turned around.

"Super! Release!"

Even the Black Dragon could not underestimate the power of this attack.

After realizing that it was too late to dodge, the Black Dragon slightly tilted its head and used its hard dragon horns to face the giant axe.

"Zi--!"

The rapidly rotating hot axe blade continued to cut the dragon horns, and sparks flew everywhere. The dragon attribute energy accumulated in the bottle burst out, along the back of the Black Dragon's neck to the spine, causing a series of explosions.

The Black Dragon roared, raised his head and swung his dragon horns, lifting the giant axe.

Feng Ying did not continue to increase the strength to stalemate, but retreated and made way for the attack.

Gordon, who had completed the preparation for charging, rushed forward, and the full-powered real charging slash fell again, cutting another bleeding wound on the side of the Black Dragon's head.

After being hit hard continuously, the furious black dragon waved its front claws and wings, trying to force the master and apprentice to retreat.

Ted and Will raised their giant shields in time and pushed forward from both sides to share the pressure.

The vanguards covered each other in the front and launched strong attacks alternately.

The shooters also found their respective attack positions.

Ansel set up the [Engraved Silver Destroyer Cannon] on the stone platform on the other side of the decisive battlefield, entered the squat shooting mode, and sniped one by one in an orderly manner.

His most important task was not to cause considerable damage, but to "observe".

As a vanguard, Gordon in the fierce frontal battle could not see the overall situation. At this time, he had to judge the situation and command on behalf of Gordon.

The task of the pen shooter Nadia was similar. She was wild in appearance but very calm in character and wandered on the battlefield.

The hunters were fighting with the black dragon, and the military shooters responsible for operating the fortification weapons did not dare to fire at will to avoid accidental injuries.

But as a superior shooter, she was more confident. From time to time, she would take the loaded crossbow from the military shooter and fire explosive crossbow arrows to interfere with the black dragon.

Compared with the calm and composed two, the other two shooters seemed a little radical.

Gale and Oshura held their own red dragon sniper crossbows, and the distance between them and the black dragon was closer than the swordsmen.

"Ahahaha! Bang bang bang bang!" Gale screamed and pulled the trigger.

One after another, armor-piercing grenades were fired at the already tattered dragon wings.

Their goal was to further weaken or even completely abolish the black dragon's flying ability.

If they succeeded, they would create a huge strategic advantage for the human side in the subsequent battles.

Looking at Gale who was firing armor-piercing grenades continuously, Oshura couldn't help but show a trace of envy in his eyes.

When she carefully selected the materials to feed the Red Dragon Sniper Crossbow, Gale had already chosen to leave it to fate and stuffed all the high-energy materials she had accumulated into her "Little Red".

This included a "Sea Dragon Jade" that she had luckily obtained that year.

Under the nourishment of water attribute energy, her "Little Red" underwent some wonderful changes and could actually quickly fire large crossbow shells such as armor-piercing grenades.

And her Red Dragon Sniper Crossbow, which was "fed" with a large amount of dragon attribute energy, could only quickly fire ordinary bullets.

However, it became possible to use a bullet chain to feed most types of crossbow bullets (single-shot automatic loading). Although the explosive power is not as good, at least the firepower sustainability is very high.

Not bad, right?
