Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 627 Red Thunder

Author: It’s a puffer fish

Looking at the pitch-black "Thunder Wolf Dragon" in front of him, the electrified shell that should have been golden, turned red and dazzling due to the dragon's energy, Gordon inevitably felt some regret in his heart.

When an ancient dragon is used as the imaginary enemy and there is insufficient intelligence support, the most common choice is to use dragon attribute weapons.

As a result, I happened to meet the guy in front of me who was good at using dragon energy. He didn't look like a weak dragon at all.

After all, there are very few special cases like the Tyrannosaurus, which breathes dragon-type breath while still having a "dragon" weakness attribute.

The only good thing is that even if the attribute energy is ignored, Epitaph is still a pretty good sword.

"Pah-pah!"

A signal bomb jumped into the air and exploded.

You don't need to think about it to know that the person who fired the signal flare was Ms. Duda who was riding a gale to retreat in advance.

The archaeologist must have been worried about the safety of Ancil and Gordon, so he sent out the signal on his own initiative. It is estimated that the Longshi Ship will arrive soon.

There's no need to worry about us so much

Gordon muttered something in his heart, and then raised his voice: "The main thing is to deal with it, and attack conservatively!"

After that, he quickly rushed towards the dark monster, drew his sword and slashed, tentatively striking at the monster's shoulders and arms.

He used at most six or seven points of force on this sword, just to leave enough power to make any response.

Whether it can cause effective damage to the monster is not important. He needs to test the speed and strength of this dark monster first, at least to have some idea of ​​it.

Even though he was mentally prepared, the speed of the dark monster's reaction still exceeded his expectations.

Facing the falling steel blade, the dark monster deftly took a small half-step back, accurately avoiding the slash, and at the same time did a backflip.

So fast!

Gordon was secretly shocked.

The giant tail covered with thick bony spines struck from the bottom up at a tricky angle.

He immediately raised his sword to block the blow, but the powerful impact still pushed him back several meters.

Tsk, its power is at least one level stronger than the ordinary Thunder Wolf Dragon, so it is difficult to deal with.

Ancier's support fire began.

He uses water-cooled ammunition, which is one of the most suitable types of ammunition for the heavy crossbow Shigure. At the same time, Thunder Wolf Dragon itself is weak to water.

The black monster in front of us, which is suspected to be a subspecies of Thunder Wolf Dragon, also has the possibility of being weak to water, so it is at least worth a try.

Ice-cold water splashed on the black monster, causing it to shake in discomfort.

efficient!

The reason why Thunder Wolf Dragon is weak to water is not because water will cause any harm to it, but because the thunder bugs living in its carapace and mane are afraid of water, so Thunder Wolf Dragon is naturally repellent to water.

The black monster in front of me is probably for a similar reason. Are those red butterflies also afraid of water?

I don’t know if fire and thunder are effective, but it’s a pity that I don’t carry ammunition with these two attributes.

With some confidence in his mind, Anhil aimed at the parts that were shining with red light, where the red butterflies lived, and started shooting at a faster rate.

Gordon roared and launched an offensive simultaneously.

Only in this way can the monster's attention be prevented from shifting to the shooter too quickly.

The black monster was also not to be outdone, and slapped down two claws one after another, followed by another blow with its horns.

It would be unwise to go head-to-head with a large monster in its prime state. Gordon decisively postponed his attack, dodging the attack while looking for openings to counterattack.

However, after a series of attacks by this monster, it never used a powerful move with big movements and big flaws.

Instead, it constantly attacks with claws, bites, butts and other small attacks, compressing the hunter's dodge space.

Gordon dealt with it cautiously.

The black monster doesn't have powerful attack moves? How is that possible? This guy is obviously waiting for himself to reveal his flaws.

"call--"

A whistling sound, much lower than that of ordinary crossbow shells, passed by.

The armor-piercing grenade with a thick body was nailed into the black monster's cheek.

This was support from Ancil. He knew the dangers of this kind of close combat, so he helped Gordon break the situation in this way.

Gordon also immediately raised his sword and entered a defensive posture.

The next second, the armor-piercing grenade exploded.

The head of the black monster was blown to one side, and the surface of Gordon's sword also crackled, the sound of armor-piercing grenade fragments being bounced off the steel surface of the sword.

When working with other swordsmen, even when working with Hayata Fengying and the others, Ancil would never use armor-piercing grenades like this.

Once teammates fail to react in time, they may be injured more seriously than the monster.

But Gordon was okay, he knew Gordon could defend himself.

Ancil's armor-piercing grenade interrupted the black monster's offensive. Gordon took the opportunity to pick up his sword and slashed at the monster's jaw, opening a wound and widening the hole.

Then immediately change the sword posture and enter the charging posture.

He knew that this flaw would only last for a short period of time, so after accumulating strength for a while, he immediately chopped down the Epitaph Sword.

But even so, the sword still missed the monster's nose.

The black monster exerted force on its limbs, instantly jumped back and opened a distance of thirty to forty meters, then lowered its center of gravity and howled to the sky.

"Ouch——!"

Gordon and the others, who have hunted at least four or five Thunder Wolf Dragons, know very well what this behavior means.

This guy is accumulating energy and must be interrupted!

Gordon waved his sword and charged at full speed.

But at this moment, a strong sense of crisis came over him, and his muscles reacted faster than his brain. Gordon turned sideways and dodged with all his strength.

A series of crimson thunder swept across the path of his previous charge, and the ground paved with ancient bricks and stones was blown to pieces.

At the same time, more red thunder condensed with high-intensity dragon attribute energy jumped and flashed around it, deterring hunters who tried to get closer.

Gordon, whose own armor had extremely poor dragon resistance, did not dare to risk himself and taste the power of these red thunderbolts.

Pork Chop tried to fire a rocket bomb, but before the bomb could fly close, it was detonated by an electric arc. It also threw a flash bomb, which was also hit by red lightning and turned into flying ash halfway.

If you want to interrupt the charging of the black monster, you can only rely on the shooter.

"Ancil!" Gordon shouted back.

Under the full-face helmet, Anhir had a stern face. He had no time to reply. He pulled the trigger at full speed in a crouching shooting posture. He emptied a twelve-round water-cooled bullet belt in just a few seconds and quickly reloaded it, and continued shooting.

He considered using Supernova directly. With the power of Supernova, it would definitely not be a problem to interrupt the charging of the black monster.

But those high-density crimson arcs made him hesitate. If Supernova was used at this time, there was a greater chance that the crossbow bomb would be detonated like Pork Chop's rocket bomb before it could fly close.

A more suitable time must be found.

The continuous water-cooling bullet shooting still had an effect. The first half of the black monster's body was almost completely wet, which suppressed the activity of the red butterflies to a great extent.

The black monster was forced to interrupt its energy storage. The red thunder light dispersed. It shook its body and shook off the water droplets on its body.

Its scarlet pupils locked on the shooter in the distance, and it began to realize that this was an opponent that must be dealt with in advance.

"Awwww——!"

The black monster roared angrily, spread out its limbs, and rushed towards Ancil.

Gordon brandished his sword and tried to intercept, but the monster's target was clear and flew directly over his head.

“Pork chop!”

"Meow!"

Porkchop screamed and threw a flashbang.
