Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

In order to protect their fellow swordsmen, the archers risked closing the distance and launching a strong attack.

On the rapid-fire cannon, Oshura's hand holding the trigger never loosened. Even though the muzzle of the multi-barreled cannon had become red hot and there was a risk of explosion at any time, she did not stop attacking.

Let it explode. This thing probably won't have a chance to be used again after cooling down.

Amid the mechanical roar of "buzz--", the rapid-fire cannon continued to spit out flames.

The rapid-fire cannon shells with power enhanced by ancient slime mold are expensive, but the power of each one should not be underestimated. Under the continuous bombardment, even the black dragon can't bear it.

He turned his head with a howl of pain and sprayed a solid fireball at the rapid-fire cannon.

Babaka, who was following Oshura, desperately turned the capstan. Driven by the gears, the rapid-fire cannon slid rapidly on the guide rail and narrowly avoided the bombardment of the fireball.

Oshura laughed loudly as he emptied the last few dozen rounds of bullets in the rapid-fire cannon's ammunition drum, then picked up Babaka, jumped off the gun mount, and flew over.

"Boom!"

Another ball of explosive fire came, blasting the rapid-fire cannon and the rails on the ground into a ball of twisted scrap metal.

While the black dragon focused its attention on the powerful rapid-fire cannon, Ansir rushed in from the side with a heavy crossbow.

The black dragon had just spit out the fireball that shattered the rapid-fire cannon, and before it could close its mouth, Ansir slid in front of it.

At a distance of almost zero, all the dragon-piercing bullets in the magazine were shot into the depths of the black dragon's wide-open throat.

Back then, he liked to use this trick to deal with water dragons.

No matter how hard the shell of a creature is, its body is always relatively fragile.

The dragon-piercing bullet passed through the black dragon's stretched throat and went straight into its stomach. The dragon-attribute energy contained in the crossbow bullets burst from the inside, continuously burning its internal organs.

In the severe pain, the Black Dragon's movements froze for a moment, and it closed its huge mouth and took two steps back.

Gale also rushed to the side of the Black Dragon's head at this time.

"Bang, bang, bang! Bang, bang!" Amid the continuous sound of cannon fire, one armor-piercing grenade after another nailed the Black Dragon's head.

The Black Dragon opened its mouth and was about to bite back, but Ansir, who was in front of it, immediately opened fire, detonating the armor-piercing grenades. The impact that penetrated the skull shocked the Black Dragon again.

Sandstone jumped in front of Gale with a protective shield, blocking the shrapnel and aftermath of the armor-piercing grenades for her.

Gale smiled, replaced the new magazine, and continued to fire.

On the other side.

Without time to pay attention to Will's injuries, or even take potions, the swordsmen who were more or less burned rushed out of the bunker.

The archers' risky attack temporarily restrained the Black Dragon, creating a brief respite for them.

They must now draw the black dragon's attention back as soon as possible, otherwise once the black dragon recovers, it will chase the shooters or launch a new round of large-scale powerful moves.

All of these will cause the battle to slide into an unknown slope.

Aiden, who was left behind, looked at Will, whose life or death was unknown, and was a little at a loss.

He hurriedly took out the secret medicine and wanted to feed it to him, but found that Will's teeth were clenched very tightly, and the pill could not be inserted at all, and he did not dare to use force to break it.

"Get out of the way, meow!" Xianglan rushed over and pushed Aiden aside.

As an excellent healing cat, it knew that when dealing with seriously burned victims, checking the injuries and feeding medicine were secondary.

The most important thing to do was to cool down.

Picked up a leather bag full of recovery medicine and poured it all over Will.

When the medicine touched the shield-holding wrist armor, it would make a "sizzling" sound.

After the initial cooling was completed, Xianglan sprinkled a few handfuls of life dust, then took out a thin piece of bone, pried open Will's tight mouth, and fed him the secret medicine.

"He was mainly burned, and this is all the battlefield first aid can do. Take him away from here!

Be careful not to peel off the armor and shirt casually. Leave it to a professional doctor later."

Aiden nodded heavily, carefully moved Will to the back of Liefeng who came to help, bypassed the front battlefield, and left the decisive battle site.

The first combat casualty of the expedition team occurred.

On the front battlefield, Gale emptied two armor-piercing grenade magazines in one breath.

A total of twelve armor-piercing grenades were nailed to the black dragon head, which looked even a little funny at first glance.

She deliberately adjusted the delay fuse of the armor-piercing grenades to make the detonation time of these armor-piercing grenades longer, so that more armor-piercing grenades could be detonated together, causing an extremely strong instantaneous impact.

The swordsmen rushed back to the battlefield one after another.

The first to arrive were Maka, who had absorbed the essence of the monster through the hunting insects, and Julius, who had turned on the demon humanization.

Maka passed by Gale quickly and gestured to the latter.

Gale and several other archers immediately put away their weapons and retreated, leaving the close combat attack position to the swordsmen.

Maka ran while spinning the insect stick in her hand, swinging the stick to fire a ball of pheromone at the black dragon's head full of armor-piercing grenades.

This impact could not cause effective damage to the monster, but it was enough to detonate the armor-piercing grenades.

"Boom boom boom--!"

The impact of the explosion was introduced into the skull through the steel spike at the top of the crossbow, and the black dragon could not help but tilt its head back.

Maka continued to rush forward.

Her hunting insect Jiji arrived in front of the black dragon's head faster than her, and repeatedly hit it with the ramming horn, causing a little damage that was better than no damage, while waving down balls of fluorescent insect powder.

Maka took off with a pole, turned around on top of the black dragon, and stabbed back.

The special-shaped [Tenglong] armor further accelerated her speed when she fell and attacked, turning her whole body into a high-speed rotating drill, leaving a series of wounds on the side of the black dragon's neck.

Maka, who fell to the ground, straightened her waist, turned over flexibly and jumped up, turned around and slashed horizontally to accumulate inertia, and then swung the round insect stick and hit the black dragon's head heavily.

"Take my blow, flying round slash!"

On the other side, Julius launched a demon dance.

In the chaotic sword light, the insect powder floating around was constantly detonated, and the dragon attribute energy that continued to burst out on the blade penetrated the scales and eroded the black dragon's body.

A little later than them, Hayata and Feng Ying arrived.

Seeing that the black dragon was briefly stiff due to the explosion of armor-piercing grenades and the combo of Maka and others, Hayata released the flying claw again without hesitation and flew to the side of the black dragon's head.

"Maka!"

The man who was trying to make a circular flying insect stick understood, raised his hand and fired the flying claw at the same time, and climbed to the front of the black dragon's head with Hayata.

Hayata pulled out the [Silver Engraving Slashing Knife] and cut the blade into a crack between the shells.

Maka jumped up and swung the [Light Shattering] insect stick and smashed it hard on the back of the sword.

With the combined efforts of the two, the crack was obviously expanded a lot.

Feng Ying pulled the Kinsect and flew over, and the axe jumped to a higher position. Amid the mechanical roar and the crackling sound of high-energy arcs, the giant axe hit the top of the black dragon's head heavily.

The black dragon's head was smashed down suddenly, and its lower jaw hit the ground with a muffled sound.

Gordon rushed to the black dragon, but was still more than a beat slower than his companions. When he arrived in front of the black dragon, he happened to see the black dragon's head being smashed to the ground.

He couldn't help but grin, "Look whose head this is?"

He carried the big sword with one hand, entered the charging posture, raised his left hand to activate the projectile, and used the recoil of the enhanced shooting to instantly complete the charging preparation.

"Really charging slash!"
