Chapter 137 Preemptive Strike
Fortunately, they were not kept waiting for too long.
More than half an hour later, the whistling of dragon wings stirring the air could be heard faintly from the distant horizon.
Ancil and Pork Chop both glanced sideways at Gordon, who was also a little embarrassed. Fortunately, they didn't attack the female fire dragon first as he suggested before, otherwise they would have to consider how to retreat to save their lives.
“Ahem, prepare to launch fertilizer bombs to drive away the female fire dragon.” Gordon cleared his throat and put on a serious look as if “the battle has begun.”
Ancil rolled his eyes, and then put the faintly smelly magazine into his beloved crystal rifle with a look of disgust on his face.
Pull the bolt, and after a few slight sounds.
Closes of brownish-yellow mist splashed all over the female fire dragon's head and face.
The female fire dragon, who was sleeping in a sweet dream, jumped up with excitement. She shook her head vigorously, wheezing from her mouth and nose, looking pitiful as if she wanted to sneeze but couldn't.
The female fire dragon looked around angrily but did not find it. She flapped her wings and began to take off, preparing to leave this lair that was full of foul smell.
But I don’t know that the source of the odor is actually on it.
Seeing the female fire dragon fly away, Gordon immediately made a gesture, nodded his little head, and ran on all fours in the direction where the female fire dragon left.
It must jump out to attract the attention of the female fire dragon when she intends to return to the nest, and take the lady further away.
Although the male fire dragon was a little surprised by the sudden departure of the female fire dragon, he didn't take it too seriously. He just thought that his partner was hungry and hurried to find food.
Looking at the female fire dragon's back that was obscured by the ridge as it gradually receded, and then at the male fire dragon that was slowly descending, Gordon and Ancil looked at each other and instantly confirmed each other's thoughts.
“Action!”
Gordon shouted low, and while rushing out of the hiding boulder, he threw the flash bomb with the fuse in his hand.
Anhir also loaded the magazine of the armor-piercing grenade into the crystal rifle at a dizzying speed and launched sniper mode.
The inconspicuous ball, which was about the size of an egg, drew an arc and came to the eyes of the male fire dragon.
The next second, a strong light bloomed.
“Roar, ow, ow, ow!”
Living in nature, the male fire dragon, which had never witnessed such a sudden bright light, screamed, its huge body twisted uncoordinatedly, its flying posture was destroyed, and it fell from mid-air to the ground in an instant.
At this time, Gordon had already charged close to the position behind the male fire dragon. He stood firm and steady his center of gravity. He aimed at the giant red tail that was thicker than his whole body and entered a charging posture.
One stage, two stages, three stages, charge up and release!
“Drink!”
Following Gordon's low roar, the explosive knife Kai tore through the air and struck hard at the middle of the Fire Dragon's giant tail.
A large piece of carapace shattered under the blow.
The male fire dragon was flopping about after falling badly and was unable to get up quickly. Seeing this, Gordon changed his charging posture without hesitation and charged up to slash!
“Crack!”
The red carapace that was split by the charged slash a few seconds ago was completely shattered now.
The claw blade of the Explosive Knife Kai continued to penetrate deeper, and the dull feel like cutting thick leather was transmitted back along the hilt, and a blood flower bloomed.
Less than ten seconds after the attack started, a **** scar appeared on the giant tail of the male fire dragon.
After a delay of several seconds, the armor-piercing grenade exploded.
The male fire dragon let out a miserable howl again, and at the same time, the blast of armor-piercing grenades made it dizzy. The little sense of balance it had just found was instantly lost, and its body as huge as a hill fell to the ground again.
“Beautiful!” Gordon shouted in praise, and after a breath of relief, he began to accumulate strength again.
Charge the power to slash, two bullets in a row!
As the giant blade slashed down, blood, dragon scales, and carapace fragments were splashed all over the silver-white sword body of the Explosive Knife, and the wound on the male Fire Dragon's tail expanded further.
Just as he was preparing another powerful attack to pursue the victory, the male fire dragon finally got back up and got up.
Gordon reluctantly stopped accumulating strength, took a few steps back, and covered his ears.
As expected, in the next second, a ferocious roar filled with boundless rage swept across the entire dragon's nest on the top of the mountain.
Looking at the red-eyed Fire Dragon, who was clearly in a violent state, Gordon knew in his heart that it was just a preemptive sneak attack.
The next step is the real fierce battle.
The furious Fire Dragon directly set its sights on Gordon, who was closest to it.
With its strong and powerful legs intertwined, the Fire Dragon suddenly swung its body and swept towards Gordon with its spread dragon wings and giant tail making a sound of breaking wind.
This kind of powerful and heavy attack is not suitable for blocking and defense. Even if you resist hard and keep your defensive posture, your whole body will be thrown away like a baseball hit by a bat.
Therefore, Gordon decisively lowered his body and rolled towards the feet of the Fire Dragon. While carefully avoiding the step of the pair of giant feet, he easily dodged the Fire Dragon's first counterattack.
After receiving the body, Gordon stood up, raised his sword, and struck the male fire dragon's belly with an upward strike.
As a connected sword move, although the upper cut is flexible, its power is very average.
The scales on the Fire Dragon's abdomen were also tougher than he expected. Apart from leaving an inconspicuous white mark on the dragon's scales, the sword did not effectively break through the Fire Dragon's defense.
The attack failed to be effective, but Gordon was not discouraged, and was even a little happy.
He suddenly discovered that there was a good place under the fire dragon!
Among all the monsters he has actually fought against, the male dragon of the flying dragon species is undoubtedly the largest - this guy's legs are almost taller than his entire body.
This results in a huge space under the Fire Dragon's wings and chest and abdomen. Hunters can directly drill in here to attack, but it is difficult for the Fire Dragon to counterattack enemies in this position.
So, Gordon carefully avoided scattered attacks such as the flailing wings, stomping feet, and back bites of the male Salamander, which were not very threatening, while concentrating on giving the male Salamander a "pedicure".
No wonder those dual-sword wielders are so obsessed with pedicures. This feeling that I can hit you but you can’t hit me is really refreshing!
However, after several back and forths of such joy, the truly threatening counterattack from the Fire Dragon finally came.
When he noticed that the Fire Dragon's movements had paused, Gordon immediately stopped the offensive and drew his sword on alert. After accumulating power for less than two seconds, the Fire Dragon's huge body slammed to the side.
This is an attack mode possessed by most monsters, impact, or in other words, iron mountain support.
The Iron Mountain Pillar of the Blue Dragon King can smash trucks, the Iron Mountain Pillar of the Big Strange Bird can knock down big trees, and the Iron Mountain Pillar of the Male Fire Dragon can smash rocks!
Gordon obviously did not take advantage of the knife, but his retreat speed was still a little slower. His shoulder was only slightly scratched, but it felt like being hit by a giant hammer, causing severe pain.
“Are you okay?!” Anhil, who was always paying attention to this side, shouted and asked.
“Little problem!” Gordon grinned. Not only was there no pain on his face, but he looked extremely excited.
Fighting has to be back and forth like this to be interesting!
