Chapter 561 Footsteps

The time comes to noon.

At the entrance to Battle Street, the corpses of Velociraptor and Pterosaurus covered the ground.

Under the combined action of the high temperatures in midsummer and the humid air in the canyon, these corpses decomposed particularly quickly. The pungent putrid smell was mixed with the smell of blood, and even the strong wind passing through the canyon could not dissipate it.

As the main force in exterminating these small monsters, the hunters in the vanguard went from being excited at the beginning to becoming numb now.

They had lost count of how many waves and how many velociraptors came in total.

One hundred heads? Two hundred heads? Or more?

The bomb barrels prepared in advance have been exhausted.

If it hadn't been consciously divided into two waves, taking turns to rest and recover, and if there were high-ranking hunters and elite marksmen on the side to support them, they might have been exhausted, seriously injured or even sacrificed.

Xia Zuo's face became increasingly ugly.

The number of velociraptors and pterosaurs is obviously higher than the guild predicted. The number killed so far is already very close to the previously estimated number, but there are still many velociraptors and pterosaurs coming.

Yamos walked to his friend and said, "What do you mean, are we going to end? The younger guys can't hold it in any longer."

Just when he wasn't paying attention, Hayata rushed out and killed the blue dragon king. If he hadn't stopped him in time, the kid would have refused to stop even with the red blade.

"No."

Xia Zuo's answer was very decisive, "I have emphasized many times that unless someone is in crisis, do not take action, let alone fight for a long time, and conserve your physical strength as much as possible.

Then there are times when they want to rest but don’t have time to rest.”

While talking, Xia Zuo sighed inwardly. He should have given those restless guys two more mouthfuls of sleeping grass soup last night and let them sleep until noon!

"Hehehe" Yamos chuckled.

His thoughts were actually similar to Xia Zuo's, mainly Ted, Gordon and other passionate young people who naturally felt panicked when they saw others fighting bloody battles but couldn't take action themselves.

"Aha! Another red speed dragon king, this one belongs to me, come on!"

Seeing Ted, who had just been called back, charging forward again with a gun drawn, Xia Zuo felt a headache. He really had the same personality as his mother.

Just as he was about to yell out, a bright yellow flare exploded in the air.

"Snapped!"

Xia Zuo and Yamos suddenly looked up.

The signal flare was released by a patrol airboat hovering over Jiuzhaigou. This was a signal agreed in advance that Lao Shanlong had entered the canyon and was about to approach Battle Street.

"Duwu——"

The extremely penetrating horn sounded on the city wall at the other end of Battle Street, echoing all the way down the canyon to here.

Not long after, there was also a faint sound of horns coming from the more distant second city wall.

The entire old village has truly entered a state of war.

After glancing at the group of velociraptors that were still appearing at the entrance of Battle Street, as well as the large group of wyverns hovering in the sky, Xia Zuo drew out his double swords.

"For the vanguard, please retreat to the stronghold. The higher-ups will take up their positions. From now on, you won't have a chance to rest. Prepare to fight!"

Ted laughed and rushed in front of the red velociraptor that had just appeared. He raised his big shield and hit it, causing it to stagger. At the same time, the "Lady Bright Candle" stabbed out and pulled the trigger at the same time.

Dragon cannon!

"Rumble--"

The huge recoil pushed Ted back several meters, and with a roar no less than the detonation of a bomb barrel, the Red Speed ​​Dragon King's entire chest was blown open, and he fell to the ground wailing.

Agaxi waved the insect stick, and the special buzzing sound of the air flowing through the tip of the stick awakened the hunting insects on her arm.

Heineye rushed into the group of velociraptors with the sword of the shield axe, slashing left and right, quickly accumulating energy.

The top hunters took action one after another, and the group of velociraptors that had just rushed into the battle street were wiped out almost in the blink of an eye.

The hunters in the vanguard were stunned for two seconds, and then they burst into cheers as if they forgot about their fatigue.

"Quickly retreat! Those who are in good condition can clean up the Velociraptors that slipped into the battle street, or protect the shooters on the gun positions!" Xia Zuo waved vigorously.

The people in the vanguard looked at each other and hesitated.

Ajin held a sledgehammer and said with a smile: "Mr. Xia Zuo, more velociraptors should be coming soon. We still have the strength to stay and help."

Xia Zuo was helpless. He could not say that these hunters were not brave and irresponsible, but they did lack the concept of the existence of "ancient dragons".

Before he could use stronger words to "persuade" these hunters to leave, a deep muffled sound sounded like it hit everyone's souls.

"Boom"

The earth also trembled.

A few seconds later, there was another sound.

"Boom"

Ah Jin and others were distracted by the heavy and strange noise. Someone even muttered, "There was an earthquake?"

The high-ranking hunters who had some special experiences all looked towards the far end of the canyon outside the battle street.

In summer, especially in summer, the thick white fog that should not appear at noon spreads in this long and narrow canyon, blocking everything in the distance.

Gordon sniffed cautiously, and then carefully felt the mucous membrane of his lower nasal cavity, the tip of his tongue, and the state of his body. No abnormalities were found. The white mist should be just ordinary water vapor.

"Boom"

The sound was slow and continuous, once every five seconds, and the intervals were as precise as a repeatedly adjusted clock, as if nothing could interfere with it.

"Crack!"

A tiny crimson arc of electricity danced on the epitaph sword behind Gordon.

This weapon from the ancient era seems to sense something.

"Boom"

"Here we come." Gordon whispered to Hayata beside him, and at the same time pulled down the visor of the Dino Tyrannosaurus armor.

Hayata nodded and drew out the sparkling Demonic Zanpakutō again, pointing the tip of the sword diagonally towards the ground.

The air seemed to be frozen, and all the high-ranking hunters drew their weapons and stared at the white mist that could not be penetrated by sight, waiting sternly.

"Boom"

Infected by this atmosphere, the hunters in the vanguard and the elite shooters looked at each other and did not dare to speak.

Where are the blue velociraptors and red velociraptors that were rushing into the battle street just now? They seem to have disappeared.

The pterodactyl that coiled in the air, chirping and annoying, seems to have disappeared too.

"Boom"

There was another muffled sound, and an incredibly huge shadow appeared on the other side of the white mist.

That is a head that anyone will immediately associate with the word "dragon" if they take one look at it.

It is so huge that it can swallow an entire house if it opens its mouth.

The scales are dark red like rust, and the pupils protected by the carapace have no luster. They are not like the eyes of a living thing, but rather like ores buried deep underground, ancient, cold, and lacking in vitality.

"Boom"

It continued to move forward, and the ground shook under its giant feet.

The body, which was far larger than the head, pushed away the white mist and shone into everyone's sight.

It's like a rust-colored mountain.

The weapon in the hand of a hunter in the vanguard fell to the ground. He opened his mouth wide and muttered unconsciously.

"what is this"

"Buzz——"

A burst of sound waves containing special power spread out, awakening the stunned people.

The flute hunter Feidi put the gorgeous queen's flute in his hand on his shoulder, played it hard, and then swung forward suddenly, causing another burst of sound waves.

A fiery power followed the sound waves and was injected into everyone's bodies.

Red melody.

"Attack quickly!" Someone yelled.

The shooters pulled the triggers and fired armor-clearing grenades, penetrating shells, fragmentation shells, and various powerful crossbow shells at the giant dark red head.

"Flashbang!"

Really not having the courage to charge towards that kind of existence, the hunters in the vanguard took out props such as flash bombs and sonic bombs and threw them out, regardless of whether they were useful or not.

Strong light, noise, and the explosion of crossbow shells all erupted one after another.

When all this dissipated, the dark red giant shadow, which had not been affected at all, once again took a slow and unstoppable step forward.

"Boom"

ps. When I was a kid, I used PSP to hide under the quilt and play P2G. The one that impressed me most was Honglong (that time with Snow Mountain Grass), and the other was Laoshanlong. The sound of footsteps emmm
