Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

"You guys retreat first, this state can't help you much." Anshir glanced at the Metabeta hunters who had been fighting with the mysterious ancient dragon all the way.

Of the dozen or so four-star and above elite hunters who blocked the mysterious ancient dragon, only five or six were left standing.

These people said that all the injuries were minor. One of the dual swordsmen broke an arm and did not withdraw from the battle even holding the sword in one hand. It is conceivable how much combat power is left.

Burns are even more serious.

After the dragon flame breath mixed with black oil explodes, the flames splashed on the body will continue to burn, and will drill into the gaps in the armor.

Some hunters whose armor is not resistant to fire have to take off the armor and throw it away, so as not to be burned alive.

Even the hair became the fuel for the fire.

The high-ranking flute hunter named Dorothy had almost bald head and a half of long hair, and her cheeks were covered with scorched black oozing burn marks, and even if they healed later, they would leave quite conspicuous burn scars.

This is because she cut off the hair with a knife in time, otherwise the result would be even worse.

"I'm the only one here who is okay." The great swordsman Asa pushed the hunters in front of him away.

His black-horned dragon armor has excellent defensive performance and flame resistance, coupled with the skills and experience of a seven-star hunter, although he has been fighting on the front line, he is in the best condition.

"Dorothy, take the president and others to retreat, leave this to us."

After all, Asa started to quicken his pace and joined the battle group of Gordon Hayatta and Ge Mantis.

President Jerome leaned on a sledgehammer that could hardly be lifted, and glanced at the hunters around him who were almost unsteady, and his shoulders slumped a little, "Let's withdraw."

Dorothy gritted her teeth and waved the hunting flute. After playing the last movement of protection, she and the other hunters supported each other and left.

Anshir secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The spirit of these local hunters to protect their hometown is admirable, but they have already reached their limit, and insisting on staying will only become a burden.

Next, it's a fight between them.

Flying to avoid the oncoming dragon gun, and rolling continuously to avoid the subsequent smashing blows, Asa got up quickly, his face darkened.

He finally understood the troublesome aspect of the guy in front of him.

Not to mention the mechanical behemoth that can confront the mysterious ancient dragon head-on, even in the body state, the Ge Mantis, which is manipulating two dragon-striking guns and the city gate shield at the same time, is extremely difficult.

Multitasking is its specialty, and this guy's strength is directly proportional to the quantity and quality of the "weapons" around him.

When there is only one dragon gun, Gordon and Hayata can suppress it together. When there are more steel gates as shields, it will be very difficult to suppress it.

And with two dragon-striking guns and a shield, it was even difficult for the three high-ranking swordsmen to get close to Ge Mantis.

A breakthrough must be found.

Gordon thought the same way.

Perhaps because his attack was the most powerful, Ge Mantis specially used the large shield made of the city gate to deal with him, blocking him wherever he went, which was a headache.

"Try changing positions frequently!" Gordon yelled.

Whether it is the Dragon Striking Spear or the Steel City Gate, Mantis Mantis manipulates it with multiple strands of silk thread. Through repeated walking and changing positions, these threads may be entangled together.

Hayatta immediately understood Gordon's thoughts. Although Asa couldn't figure out the reason for doing so in the first place, it didn't prevent him from implementing it.

He is not the kind of person who is very "addicted to seniors" and feels that listening to juniors is equivalent to losing face.

Gordon's current strength is not inferior to him, and Yinbian is the only team that has dealt with Mantis, so it is reasonable to follow the command as a temporary force.

While maintaining an offensive posture, the three of them frequently staggered and changed positions.

The effect of this strategy was almost immediate.

Gordon and Hayata passed by, and the dragon gun and steel city gate chasing them suddenly lost control and fell to the ground.

The silk threads were entangled together, and even Ge Mantis couldn't untie them immediately.

Seeing this, Gordon and Hayata immediately changed their direction of action and rushed towards Ge Mantis not far away.

Ge Mantis twitched its limbs, trying to manipulate the only remaining dragon-striking gun to return to defense.

Asa immediately rushed forward desperately, and set up a big sword to block the dragon-striking spear. Although the man and the sword were thrown away, he successfully created a loophole for the other two.

[Shenwei] Great Sword and Night Saber [Moon Shadow] slashed at the vital points of the mantis' head and chest one after another, causing the mantis to scream piercingly in pain, and it swung its sickle-shaped arm to fight back.

Hayata immediately set up the Taidao, flicked the arm of the sword at a subtle angle, took advantage of the situation and slashed down the Taidao vertically, cutting back the pavilion mantis.

Ge Mantis hissed sharply, and swung the other saber arm towards her again, as if to cut her in half.

This time, Hayata didn't use the sharp blade to parry again, but stabbed the Taidao straight, and the moment the tip of the sword hit the mantis' chest, he jumped up, avoided the horizontal slash with the knife arm, and slashed from mid-air Down.

Qi blade pocket cutting!

"Gee -!"

Ge Mantis screamed in pain. From the head to the chest joint, a huge knife cut nearly two meters long was cut open. The legs supporting the body couldn't help but go limp, and fell to the ground.

"pretty!"

Taking advantage of the attack between Hayata and Ge Mantis, Gordon chewed a pill of strange power, swung his sword to stir up his fighting spirit, and activated the beast soul possession. The scarlet aura mixed with the armored dragon's aura surged like a raging flame.

Afterwards, he condensed and compressed his battle energy, and began the preparations for the real power slash.

Seeing Gordon's appearance, Asa, who came back from a distance while drinking the potion, couldn't help but be speechless, "Young people nowadays, how many things do you have to put on your body?"

"Drink!"

Gordon roared, and the strongest sword fell.

He is confident that if this sword hits the target, the claw blade of the Jue Chong Sword [Shenwei] will definitely be able to tear off the head of that tiny praying mantis!

It's a pity that even though it was cut down by Hayata and fell to the ground, Ge Mantis's reaction was still astonishingly fast.

Without time to make more responses, it propped up the knife arm and moved back slightly.

The claw blades made by the minions of the Big Boom Dragon passed in front of its eyes, and finally landed on its chest, tearing off a large piece of carapace, and almost did not break the not-so-thick chest, emerald green The insect blood spurted out.

It was a near fatal blow.

However, the unique tenacious vitality of the beetle species allowed it to survive.

Stimulated by the severe pain, the Ge Mantis almost jumped up from the ground, and countless silks sprayed out from its ventral and tail glands, and entangled everything around it.

The hunters also inevitably got some sticky worm silk on their bodies. In order to prevent the worm silk from becoming more and more entangled and completely losing their ability to move, they had to retreat temporarily.

More worm threads fell on the lingering ruins, many were scorched by the flames, but some of them were successfully wrapped around those heavy parts.

Feeling life-threatening, it is ready to forcibly pull up the city of Xu!

Pig Chop rushed over and threw a few incendiary bombs on the hunters to attract the monster's attention.

Fortunately, the flame resistance of the armor of the three of them is not bad. With the help of these incendiary bombs, they quickly broke free from the shackles of the worm silk.

"It's very weak!" Gordon roared: "The construction speed of the mechanical giant is much slower than before! Stop it before the ruin city is pulled up!"

"boom!"

At this moment, a streamlined bomb bay, taller than a person, fell a dozen meters away from them.

Gordon's eyes twitched.

He recognized that it was a support and supply rocket from the Dragon Consciousness Ship.

Don't you want to send some supplies now? !

"hiss--"

Amid the sound of air flow, the rocket's thick bomb bay split into two halves and bounced open. There were no supplies inside, only a red and black Taidao stuck vertically there.

It is Hayata's Flying Dragon Saber [Black Yao].

"Ha!" Gordon couldn't help laughing.

The brains of those scholars are really fast. The fire-attribute flying dragon knife [Hei Yao] is used to attack the body of the mantis. The effect may be mediocre, but if it is used to cut and destroy the silk, the effect is absolutely first-rate.

"Hayatta!"

"Understood!" Hayata sprinted to the position of the supply warehouse, grabbed the Dragon Saber [Black Yao], and then rushed at full speed to the city of ruins that was slowly being built.

Gordon and Asa charged towards the Ge Mantis who was trying to pull and manipulate the worm silk.

Whether it's cutting off the worm thread or solving the main body, the mechanical giant must not be allowed to take shape again!
