Chapter 615: Expensiveness is not its problem

Taking the place where the Resentful Tiger Dragon fell as the center of the circle, within a radius of more than 2,000 square meters, explosive will-o'-the-wisps swept everything.

Gordon, who barely escaped by riding a gale, sighed from the bottom of his heart:

Teethhounds are awesome!

The Resentful Tiger Dragon that fell from the sky was locked on his position and struck down. From the time when the former accelerated its fall to the time when it finally hit the ground, it took at most two or three seconds.

With his speed of movement, these short two or three seconds were not enough for him to run far enough.

Even if you swoop to avoid damage at the most precise time and are not directly killed, you will inevitably be affected by the explosive will-o'-the-wisp, and will become passive in the subsequent battle.

How could it be like now, only caught in a few lingering flames, but otherwise unscathed?

At the same time, he also saw once again how ridiculously maneuverable the hunters in the Fire Land were with the help of flying insects and silkworms.

Especially with the explosive power of movement within a short distance, a space of twenty to thirty meters flew past almost in the blink of an eye.

Jumping off Gale's back, Gordon took out a deodorizing jade and smashed it to the ground.

This is the information I got from Sui Fengmin.

The purple mist and will-o'-the-wisps on the body of the Resentful Tiger Dragon are actually a kind of "corpse gas".

Monsters like the Tiger Dragon have a very strong desire for prey. After devouring a large amount of prey, the phosphorus-rich gas decomposed when the prey corpses are digested in its body will be collected and stored in special organs.

During battle, these gases with extremely low ignition points will spurt out from the glands all over their bodies, forming the so-called will-o'-the-wisp phenomenon.

The smoke of deodorizing jade can decompose this gas, thereby eliminating the influence of will-o'-the-wisps wrapping around the upper body.

Lieyan Fengying and the others adopted another method. By using the flying insects to move quickly, they could also throw away the will-o'-the-wisps.

After releasing a large number of will-o'-the-wisps at once, and then charging through the sky and smashing the ground with a series of violent attacks, the Resentful Tiger Dragon was inevitably a little tired.

But the anger in its heart has not diminished slightly, and its eyes are always locked on Gordon, still full of boundless resentment and anger.

Gordon smacked his lips, feeling that this guy was like a horned dragon who valued his horns more than his life.

Little did he know that the gorgeous helmet horns had a special meaning to the resentful tiger dragon, especially to the male tiger.

And the resentful tiger dragon in front of me happened to be male.

"Roar!"

Facing the Roaring Tiger Dragon, which was roaring, lowering its limbs, and about to charge again, Gordon also drew his mechanical sword again.

To him, the hatred of his prey is irrelevant.

You've already decided to hunt, why don't you allow the other party to hate you?

However, just as he was accumulating strength with his sword, preparing to deal another severe blow to the Resentful Tiger Dragon, Ancier in the distance shouted: "Back off! Keep the distance, at least twenty meters!"

Hearing what Ancil said, Gordon immediately realized what this guy was going to do.

He immediately put away his sword, turned around and ran away without looking back.

Not far behind him, Pig Chop was waving his little paws vigorously, "Meow this way! Bring it here to meow!"

Gordon glanced around and immediately noticed that the color of the soil under Pork Chop's feet was slightly darker than the surroundings, and the texture of the soil was also slightly looser.

A trap?

Gordon felt a little relieved. Facing the pursuit of the Resentful Tiger Dragon, unless he rode on the strong wind, it would be difficult to distance himself with his own legs.

But it's different when there are traps.

He kept turning his head and used the corner of his eye to confirm the position of the Resentful Tiger Dragon.

Well, just right!

Behind him, the roar of the Tiger Dragon and the sound of footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Gordon jumped forward suddenly.

The resentful tiger dragon, whose sanity was almost completely burned out by the endless anger, did not notice the abnormality and fell headlong into the cave.

"Ouch——"

Gordon, who fell to the ground, quickly got up, but instead of seizing the time to return to the monster and prepare to charge up the attack as before, he continued to run forward at full speed.

At the same time, he did not forget to wave his hands and yell at Feng Ying and Lie Yan who were about to rush over, "Don't come here! Back off! Back off!"

Feng Ying and Lie Yan, who were planning to take advantage of the good opportunity when the resentful tiger dragon fell into the trap, were not sure why.

But seeing Gordon running wildly, the two girls, whose IQs were within the normal range of human beings, also stopped one after another.

Soon, they understood why Gordon was running away so vigorously.

A ray of fire flew from dozens of meters away.

Up to this point, Lie Yan and Feng Ying were still a little indifferent.

What? It turned out to be to give Ancil a chance to shoot.

However, in the next second, a golden-red fireball with a diameter of more than ten meters erupted in mid-air, like a dazzling sun, completely covering the body of the resentful tiger dragon that was exposed outside the trap.

“Rumble, rumble—!”

"What the fuck?!" Feng Ying couldn't help but uttered a curse word.

Lieyan also widened his eyes, looking dull.

Not far away, Ancier, who had caused all this, slowly lowered his heavy crossbow, and the muzzle of the fiercely carved [Shigure] was still making a sizzling sound.

"Supernova."

After the blazing explosion flames dissipated, Gordon cursed and rushed back to the stunned Tiger Dragon, shouldering his sword and charging up, "Damn it, can this be called a hunting skill?"

The will-o'-the-wisps wrapped around the body of the resentful tiger dragon were completely burned and exploded by this "supernova", and the fire-resistant carapace was also covered with charred burn marks and broken cracks.

"Why doesn't it count as meow!" Pig Chop defended Ansiel's injustice.

This move is called the "Supernova" heavy crossbow hunting technique, which he and Ancier developed in the past year.

Different from the hunting skills of swordsmen, most of them focus on skills or the use of physical energy such as fighting spirit.

The hunting skills of archers, especially crossbowmen, are basically all "technology".

The so-called supernova is actually a special type of crossbow projectile.

There is no place to buy this kind of specially-made crossbow shell, which is much larger than the lv3 armor removal grenade. It must be mixed by hand, and the material cost is extremely high.

According to Pork Chop, some of the materials used in the charge of "Supernova" are the same as high-density dragon-killing carbon.

If you want to use this thing to hunt monsters whose danger level is not that high, the mission reward will definitely not be worth the material cost.

In this regard, Ancier said that this is perfect for him!

He never became a hunter to make money!

Of course, if you want to find fault, Supernova is not without its shortcomings. On the one hand, it is expensive, and the launch conditions for this special crossbow projectile are quite harsh.

Due to the amazing power of the charge and its instability, in order to avoid accidental contact, its fuse is not the common detonation type, but a delayed detonation.

In other words, if you want to exert the power of the supernova, you must find the distance and angle and accurately air explode. If you shoot it on an obstacle, it will directly misfire.

These two shortcomings directly caused most of the heavy crossbowmen in Longliyuan to drool wildly when faced with the new hunting technique "Supernova", which was attracted by its astonishing power.

Then faced with its outrageous price and extremely harsh conditions of use, Sansan gave up.

Only Anhil didn't feel that way at all.

In his view, these two shortcomings are not shortcomings. "Expensive" is not its problem, but the user's problem. The same goes for "difficult to use".

If the "Supernova" crossbow projectile were not too large and inconvenient to carry, it would also put great pressure on the bore of the heavy crossbow when fired, making it impossible to use it frequently.

He didn't even plan to use other crossbow shells.

Ps. Huh? It turns out that the heavy crossbow has hunting skills other than ultimate return and complete harmony?!
